Ch. 1 The Accident
So this is my first fan fic for this fandom. Please know I have not kept up well with the show but I just really wanted to write somthing I could turn fluffy and happy eventually using this ship. I blame the interenet for how much I have become obssessd with this ship. Anyway, hope you might enjoy. RnR everyone.
Soft snores fill the air of the small room. A bed pushed up against one wall with the covers pulled up and patted flat. The sun is shining through the window casting a warm glow into the room. There is a heap of clothes slowly rising and falling with each snore. The snores belong to a small brown raccoon. The sound of clacking footsteps is heard outside the door and a tall blue bird appears in the door way. He leans against the door frame and raises a hand and knocks against the wall.
"Rigby, dude, come on get up man," he says to the heap of clothes. It doesn't respond and so he walks over to it and picks all the clothes up raveling the raccoon curled up on a small trampoline. The bird nudges the sleeping body with his foot. "Jeeze dude I know we have the day off but come on get up," he said getting annoyed.
Rigby groans and squeezes his eyes closed tighter. He had woken up when Mordecai had knocked on the wall but he didn't really want to get up. "Leave me alone," he groans "I just wanna sleep, man." He flails his arms weakly trying to get the bird to go away.
Mordecai rolls his eyes and pushes his foot against Rigby's chest harder "dude it twelve o'clock just get up already," he shoves his foot against his friend pushing him off the trampoline and sending him rolling across the floor.
The raccoon jumps up and throws his arms in the air "what the hell man why won't you just leave me alone," he yells.
"Cause you need to get up man. You don't need to sleep all day." Mordecai rolls his eyes tossing the clothes back on to the trampoline and turning to walk out the door "plus I figured you'd want to go get something to eat at the coffee shop." Those words spark the raccoon's interest and he narrows his eyes and nods putting his arms down he decides to follow his friend.
"Fine then," he says still annoyed at being so abruptly awoken but his love for food and his current hunger driving him to comply with his friends wish. They make their way out of the house stopping on the porch "Dude lets drive a cart there."
"It's close enough to walk to though dude," Mordecai looks down at Rigby "don't be lazy man."
Rigby shakes his head "no man if we have a cart we can just drive around so we don't have to spend all day in the park man, it gets boring here."
Mordecai chuckles at hearing him say it got boring at the park. "Fine let's get a cart," he walks down the stairs and turns left to see the garage door open. They make their way into the small garage and see a welcome sight. "Yo, Skips what's up man?" Mordecai says walking up to a cart that Skips has lifted up and is currently working under.
The yeti slides out from under the cart. His trademark permanently stern face greeting the two friends "Hey Mordecai and Rigby," he says "Just tuning up the carts got one done already got finish the others today."
The two friends nod "sounds good man," Mordecai says "can we borrow that cart you're done with?"
Skips shrugs "Sure, but be careful it's got a bit more power behind the pedal now so don't push it too hard," he skips over to his work bench and picks up the keys and turns tossing them to Mordecai who catches them midair.
"Thanks, Skips see ya later," he says walking over to the cart and hopping in and bringing the engine to life. Rigby crawls up onto the passenger side "come on dude hurry up," he whines "I'm starving." Mordecai puts his foot down on the pedal and the carts wheels squeal and they shoot out of the garage almost crashing into a tree but barley manage to drift around it before heading off towards the front gate of the park.
Their very short drive ends with Mordecai parking the cart in front of the coffee shop. Rigby hops out running to the door of the shop and yanks it open with Mordecai following close behind. They take their seats at the bar and soon they're greeted by one of their friends. "Hey Margret," Mordecai says.
"Oh hey guys how are you," she asks "the usual right?"
"Doing great got the day off," he says "and yeah the usual is ok."
Rigby lets out an irritated noise "I can order my own food man," he says "black coffee and a sub."
Mordecai sighs, turning to look at Rigby, "Dude that is what you always get. Whatever." He rolls his eyes and looks back at Margret.
"Sweet I need to start a new pot of coffee but I'll get your subs as soon as I can," she turns and walks back down the counter towards the coffee makers.
Mordecai watches her go and smiles foolishly and says under his breath so that only Rigby can hear "I'm gonna do it man I'll ask her out."
Rigby lets out a dry laugh "yeah right man you couldn't ask her out if your life depended on it," he knew it wouldn't work it never did. Honestly, he didn't really want it to ever work. Rigby didn't mind Margret but he did mind that Mordecai wanted her. Rigby held a secret from his friend one he felt would break their friendship to pieces. Regardless Rigby knew how this little scene played out every time.
"Dude, shut up I know I can do it,"
"Mhmm," Rigby watched as Margret walked over with two fresh cups of black coffee and set them down in front of them. He immediately chugged half of his not minding how hot it was. He set his mug down and watched the show.
"H-Hey uh Margret," off to a bad start for Mordecai. Rigby can almost see the wheels spinning trying to come up with something to say.
"What is it?" Margret stands there patiently waiting.
"You uh you look nice to day." There is the choke up that Rigby knew was coming and he crosses his arms and lets out a couple short 'hmm hmm's. This garners him a death glare from Mordecai as Margret turns to retrieve their subs.
Their food set in front of them and paid for by Mordecai they begin to eat in silence. Rigby devours his sub not taking the time to chew properly. Once done he glances over at his friend to see him glaring at the wall. Rigby knew he was utterly pissed about failing so hard. Mordecai finishes his sub and leaves his coffee untouched as he stands up "come on dude let's get out of here."
Rigby hops down off the barstool and follows Mordecai out of the shop hearing Margret bid them goodbye as the door swung shut. Mordecai gets into the driver's side of the cart and turns the engine over as Rigby hops on the passenger side. "Where are we going man?" Rigby asks. Mordecai doesn't respond but instead just puts his foot down on the pedal sending the cart screeching forward. Rigby clutches the seat trying to hold on. "Hey, dude wanna slow down a bit?" Mordecai doesn't respond and instead speeds up. His face contorted into one of anger and sadness. "Dude you're gonna get us killed! Slow down!" Rigby looks forward and sees they're coming up to an intersection and their light is turning from green to red. His eyes go wide and he reaches over grabbing Mordecai's arm and shaking it "Dude stop the damn cart you're gonna run the red li…"
The last thing Rigby sees is a big red truck as it barrels into the side of the cart and sending him flying off to the side. Time has stopped and the raccoon feels as if he's floating in mid-air. He doesn't feel his body slam into the ground since he goes unconscious the second he hits it.
Oh my a cliff hanger wonder whats gonna happen next.
