My Note: New story! Yeah! Came up with the idea while listening to "Let Me Love You" and thinking about "Save Him Save Me". Read and Review please!
It was a beautiful, warm New York morning. Animals all around were just waking up, including Marlene. She had just woken from a wondrous dream. Where the love she had, was returned.
Of course, it would probably never happen. Aw, well...At least I can dream!
"Dodge! Weave! Weave! Dodge!" Marlene giggled, hearing Skipper's orders. Well, the perfect way to start the day, would be to see the ones you love most. And with that, she walked outside.
Luckily, the penguins were actually outside their habitat, cleaning their car. "Hey guys!" Marlene smiled sweetly at them all, but mostly at Skipper. They all replied without looking up, though part of that has to do with three of them being under the car.
Skipper looked up. "Oh, Good morning Marlene. -Whoa." She watched as his eyes looked her over, from bottom to top and back again. "Uh..Are you okay?" Skipper shook his head. "Well, of course I am! Never been better!" "Yeah...Okay, well. Good morning! And what exactly are you doing?" Marlene replied, pointing to the six penguin feet that stuck out from under the car.
"That's-" "-Classified. Right." Skipper seemed stunned. "What?" "How did you-" "-Know what you were going to say? Simple. You say the same thing every time I ask you a question." "So, why do you keep asking them then, Marlene?" "Uh, I don't know. Curiosity." Skipper glared.
"Well whatever it is, I don't like it." Marlene just rolled her eyes. "OK, then what do you like, Skipper?" She gave him a sly smile. Skipper blinked, confused by that smile of hers. "Why do you always have to get in the way of things? I'd like it if you didn't interrupt us during our training, Marlene. As well as barging in completely uninvited. " Marlene's face fell a little.
"Yeah, okay, sure, you know, why not?" Her shoulders shrugged and fell. Tears brimmed her eyes a little. After she had walked her sad self home, Skipper immediately face-palmed himself.
[Skipper's POV]
She was really beautiful this morning, as well as kind. Well, she always is, but still! I don't know what to do, when she's around. I look into her eyes, and I'm completely lost. But she doesn't feel the same. How could she?
She needs a prince, or something like it. I'm nothing more than a penguin. I need the love she can give, but I know I won't receive it. A mission doomed to failure. I've liked her for awhile. But I can't tell her how I feel because she'd run.
Why can't I find a girl out there? Someone who loves me no matter what.
