Hey guys, just so you all know, I might not be updating so often because of school starting, but I will try to update at least once every 1-3 days. Anyways, here is the second chapter!
As Mordecai made his way to the coffee shop, he realised that this was his first time going to the coffee shop without Rigby, so he smiled and thought,'Finally, no Rigby to interrupt things between me and Margaret.' Maybe he might actually ask her out. As soon as he walked in, he was greeted by multiple guests running all over the place, trying to get a table, and a spot in line. 'Great' he thought. 'Of all the times I decide to come here, it's during the lunch rush.' He was bumped by someone, and when he turned around he saw Margaret carrying multiple trays of food. "Hey Margaret!" He said. "Hey Mordecai, sorry I can't talk right now, as you can see, the lunch rush is here, and it's just me and Eileen today." Said Margaret. "That sucks. Would you like me to help? I have time." He offered, forgetting his limited time. "I couldn't ask you to do that, Mordecai, it's practically hell right now." "No, Margaret, it's fine I have nothing to do anyways. So where do these trays go?" He said as he took the trays of food off her hands. "Over there, at the corner table." She said, pointing him towards it. Within seconds he was back. "Okay, so those people now have their food, do you need anything else done?" He asked. "Well, since Eileen is making the food and washing dishes, how do you feel about delivering the food for me while I stay at the register and make sure they don't start killing each other?" She asked. "I'm fine with it, just don't get yourself killed in the process." Together, the three quickly made it through the lunch rush, and within thirty minutes, the crowd was almost minuscule. When those last few customers left, Margaret and Eileen where finally able to take a break. As they went to Mordecai and Rigby's usual table, Margaret asked. "So Mordecai, where's Rigby? Isn't he usually with you?" "Yeah, he usually is, but Benson caught him slacking while I was working again, and let me take a quick break to relax while Rigby did the work he was supposed to." "Oh Rigby, sometimes he does cute things, like that." Eileen said, while laughing to herself. "So anyways Margaret, how have you been?" Mordecai asked. "I don't why you would be asking me that, Mordecai, because you were here two days ago asking me the same thing, but I've been fine." Margaret replied, chuckling. "Hey, a lot can change in a day or two. Rigby actually gave Don sugar, and enjoyed it, when he saved the park from the audit, and that happened in one day." "Ok Mordecai, whatever you say." Margaret replied, now laughing slightly. As soon as she said this, a customer walked in. "I'll get him, Margaret. You've been working all morning." Eileen said, while nodding at Mordecai. 'Come on Mordecai,' Eileen thought. 'I'm giving you an opening.' As she walked away, Mordecai started thinking of all possibilities that could occur from him asking Margaret out. They ranged from Margaret laughing at his feeble attempt, to her refusing rudely, and her declining due to a current boyfriend. Finally he thought,'What if...?' and made his decision. "Hey Margaret?" "Yeah Mordecai?" "I was wondering-" "MORDECAI, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?" Benson yelled through the Walkie-Talkie. Mordecai looked at his watch. "Aw crap, I forgot! Benson wanted me back an hour ago! Sorry Margaret, I got to go." "It's ok, Mordecai." Margaret said, saddened that he had to leave. When Mordecai got back to the park, he got quite an earful from Benson, but his thoughts weren't towards the lesson Benson wanted him to learn. They were on how close he was, so he only really caught the words "ungrateful" "irresponsible" and "the worst time-keeper". Later that night, before Mordecai went to bed, he received a text from Margaret.
Margaret- What was it you were going to ask me earlier?
Mordecai stared at this for a while before replying: 'I was wondering if you'd want to go out for dinner and a movie later on this week.' It's was ten minutes before he got a reply, which said: 'Sure, I'm free on Thursday. That's my day off.' After reading this, Mordecai knew that he would not be complaining about Benson's ranting and constant reminders. He fell asleep with a smile on his face.
So, there's chapter two. What do you guys think? Like I stated earlier, I won't update frequently, but I will try my best, I still am new to this, and if I'm lucky, then this will keep me busy during breaks in school. Vengeance of One out!
