What? I'm back. Crazy. Back to my first loves, my Mary and Bert. So this story is essentially short little snippets looking at all the girls from Jolly Holiday that Mary kept getting so upset about.

Mavis

Mavis was the first girl he courted when he was seventeen. She had a head of golden curls that tumbled down her back, and the most beautiful green eyes. She was quite a beautiful, and Bert definitely knew that he was winning when she agreed to let him court her two months ago.

The two of them were strolling through the park on one of the nicer ends of London. They had just stopped by one of Mavis' favorite bookshop to purchase the newest book in her favorite series.

"Bert, darling," Bert smiled over at the golden-haired beauty next to him.

"Yes, Mavis?"

"When do you think we will get married?" Bert looked at her with his mouth agape. Marriage? Marriage! They hadn't been courting for two months. Wasn't marriage a little while off. He had only looked over to her for a blink of an eye, but that was enough time.

"Bert!" Bert didn't have time to react to Mavis before he found himself colliding with another form. Bert looked down at the form that he knocked to the ground. His heart skipped a beat. Two piercing blue looked up from him with a huff, blowing a stray brown curl out of her face.

"I'm so sorry, Miss," Bert hurries over to her and helps her up. She gladly accepts his hand, and Bert feels a spark at her touch. She gasps at the touch and her blue eyes meet his. Bert knows that he's lost. "I wasn't looking where I was looking,"

"Perfectly fine just try to be less lightheaded," Mary straightens herself and brushes herself before looking back up at Bert, "close your mouth, you are not a codfish," Bert quickly shuts his mouth as he looks at the beauty in front of him. She's practically perfect in every way.

"S...sorry."

She smiles. "Thank you for your assistance, sir." Bert watches her go until he hears a throat clear behind him. He turns to see Mavis tapping her foot with her arms crossed.

"She's right, though, you are lightheaded," Bert turns back to the woman to see two boys surrounding the young woman who just left him.

"Mary Poppins, do we have to go home?" The older boy asks.

"Yes, it is almost time for dinner and you need to wash,"

"I hate washing." The younger boy hangs his head as he takes her hand.

"Washing is necessary to get food." Bert smiles as the boys follow her out of the part.

"Bert!" Bert turns back to Marvis. "I want to go home." Bert looked at her with a look of sadness but escorts her home.

When Bert gets her home, he stops at the small house and Mavis looks at him with a stern look.

"You never answered my question, Bert,"

"What question, Mavis?"

"When do you think we'll get married?" Bert thought back to the young woman in the park and looked back at the girl in front of him. Mary Poppins was the woman for him, and it wasn't fair to Mavis to pretend otherwise.

"I don't think I want to marry you, Mavis. You're beautiful," Bert takes her hand into his, "but I think you need someone who isn't me." Bert places a kiss on her cheek before leaving her. Marvis had the winning looks, but she wasn't for him.


*gush* First meetings are never smooth.

Love,
