"Hanging with Margaret just a-feels so good, like I knew it would.
Laughing together and a-havin' a blast and I hope it lasts forever-!
I can't believe how hot she is, it makes my insides feel like knotted twists.
Her pretty face and those long, long legs and I hope someday we can be more than just friends-!
Oh Margaret, Oh Margaret, I love it when you stand or sit right next to me, can't you see?
Your future with me is brighter than the ocean! –Wait, what? Brighter than the ocean?"
Margaret let out another hearty laugh as the message came to an end one more time.
It had been a couple of months since Mordecai had butt-dialed her and left that on her phone, but she still had it. Every now and then she would play it to instantly brighten her day.
A few weeks after the accidentally message Margaret had begun to grow aware of her feelings for the blue bird.
Every moment that she spent with him was wonderful and she couldn't wait for the next time that they would be hanging out together. It really did "feel good" to be in his company—just like he knew it would.
She smirked at this thought.
Then she thought to the next couple of lines and stood up from her bed to look at herself in a nearby floor length mirror.
"Am I really that hot?" She pondered aloud.
Soon her cheeks had turned a bright red from thinking about the physical features of Mordecai and she felt something knot where her stomach was.
Her phone started to go off and made her thoughts cease.
"Oh, Eileen." She said answering the phone, "What's up?"
"Margaret! Margaret! Come down to the coffee shop quick, Mordecai and Rigby are having a contest to see who can drink the most green tea in one minute!" Came the other side of the cell phone.
Margaret chuckled, "Okay, Eileen, I'll be right there."
She went to her closet and put on her usual yellow shirt and pants, straightening it all out and headed to the coffee shop.
"Margaret! Did you come to watch me win?" Mordecai yelled to the red bird as she walked through the door.
"You wish! I'm totally going to drink more tea than you and I don't even like tea!" Added in his raccoon companion.
"Psh, yeah right." Was the blue birds response.
"I'm keeping score, Margaret, come watch." Said Eileen.
"Ok, yeah." Margaret said taking a seat close to the trio.
When the minute was done Mordecai was announced the victor, especially since Rigby had spit out most of the tea that he tried to drink, yelling 'this stuff is disgusting, why would you buy it?' as he did so.
Aside from the raccoon that was still upset he lost, all the others were laughing and applauding Mordecai for winning.
"Hey, do you guys wanna go hang out and get some ice cream? I'm done with my shift now." Eileen announced.
The group replied to Eileen at the same time, but in various ways.
"Yeah, sure."
"Sounds great."
"I know I can eat more ice cream than Mordecai!"
Eileen and Margaret laughed at Rigby's response as Mordecai jokingly punched Rigby in the arm.
"Ow, that hurt!" Cried Rigby.
"Rigby, I'll buy you an ice cream cone since you lost." Eileen tossed the comment towards Rigby.
"Sweet! Take that Mordecai!" Rigby said as he sprinted out the door of the coffee shop with Eileen.
"What are we going to do with those two?" Margaret questioned with Mordecai.
"Ha, I don't know…" Mordecai answered back. "But I guess we should head out now, too. Come on, walk with me!"
"Yeah, let's go!" Margaret couldn't wait to go get some ice cream with her friends.
She was excited thinking about the day that she and Mordecai could be more than friends, but for now she just enjoyed having everyone around to spend time with and hang out.
She loved the three more than anything and as she and Mordecai walked to meet up with Eileen and Rigby, she couldn't help but think back to the voicemail that Mordecai had left her on her phone.
Their future together was brighter than the ocean.
