Disclaimer: I do not own Regular Show; it is owned by the awesome JG Quintel, and those who contribute: Benton Connor and Calvin Wong. I just say those two as well because they make the show awesome as well, so why not?
Note: I've been a little excited to update the story, and I guess I feel like writing, but eh, something told me I should write this chapter early, unlike waiting a month to write Chapter Two! XD
LeninWerke- Thank you so much! I really appreciate how you like the story! I wish it could become an episode, too, but I guess they don't want to have a date episode just yet. ;)
And yes I did have to spread the word of your story. I always refresh my Fan Fiction page just to see if your story is updated (Sometimes because there may be other interesting stories besides yours, haha).
Okay, off with the story. My rambling has gone off hand.
Mordecai and Rigby heard the doorbell, knowing it was Margaret. They looked at the time; it was 6:58. Luckily, Mordecai wasn't in such a rush. As he opened the door, he was stunned.
"Hey Mordecai!" Margaret chirped.
Margaret's outfit consisted of a black cocktail tube dress, about two inches above the knee, showing off her perfect shape, her exposed cleavage and shimmered perfectly with the night lights. She didn't wear jewelry, nor make-up.
Mordecai was too distracted by how she looked. She looked amazing.
"Mordecai?" Margaret chuckled, trying to get his attention; he was still stunned.
Rigby walked up to him, "DUDE!" His best friend pushed his leg, more to Mordecai's embarrassment, almost falling. Rigby walked away afterwards after waving at Margaret.
"Wha-? Oh. Hey Margaret," Mordecai smiled shyly, "You look incredible," he grinned.
Margaret just grinned, "Aw, thanks Mordecai! Ready to go?"
As Mordecai was about to answer her question, Rigby was signaling Mordecai to come to him. He looked back and forth at his two friends.
"Hold on, I'll be right back," Mordecai promised Margaret, walking toward Rigby.
Mordecai wasn't impressed, "Just when I need to go, you're the one who's signaling me for my attention. What is it?"
"Do you think you can get me a piece of chocolate cake if they have any at that place?" Rigby asked, with Mordecai rolling his eyes.
"Dude, I'm not doing that in front of Margaret," Mordecai replied.
Rigby sighed, "Fine, no cake, but you're getting me that cake some time tomorrow, got it?"
Mordecai nodded, "I'll see you later tonight," he said before walking to Margaret.
"What was it?" Margaret asked.
Mordecai rubbed the back of his neck, "Oh, that? Rigby just wanted me to do something, but he changed his mind. That's all."
"Okay. Ready to go then?" Margaret asked a second time.
"This time, I am so ready," Mordecai said before walking out of the house with Margaret.
Fancy Restaurant 7:10 P.M.
After riding to the restaurant ten minutes away from the park, the two had arrived at the restaurant. It was everything Mordecai had in plan. A fancy five-star restaurant that made you feel like you were home away from home. The rooms were dim, candles were lit, and the atmosphere was warm.
Mordecai had walked up to the host, "Reservation for two, under Mordecai, please," he told the host, who smiled.
"Right this way," the host lead them to a two-person table closest to the most beautiful scenery from outside.
After the host left to get back to work, Mordecai pulled a chair open for Margaret, to much of her surprise.
Margaret chuckled lightly, "Thank you Mordecai. You're such a gentleman," she chirped, taking her seat facing Mordecai, who had gotten his seat.
"So.. uhh.. H-How was work?" Mordecai asked, feeling like he had asked a stupid question.
"Long day, yet time has really flown," Margaret sighed, "Just glad I'm off tomorrow and all," she laughed calmly, "How was your day?"
"Very busy. Benson finally turned lenient on us and only made us pick up litter, clean the dishes and all those other everyday chores. Then we were off," Mordecai smiled softly.
Margaret looked around the restaurant, "Wow, Mordecai. I really love this place, and we haven't even had our waiter come here yet! I'm so excited!"
A waitress had approached the two. Speak of the devil.
"Hi! I'm Natasha, and I'll be serving you two tonight. What would you like to drink?" She had a smile on her face, ready to write down what was needed.
"I'd like some soda, please," Mordecai requested.
As the waitress wrote down Mordecai's drink, Margaret then spoke.
"Water, please," Margaret told the waiter.
"I hope you two have a great evening. I'll be right back with your drinks," Natasha said walking away to get the drinks.
"Margaret, I don't know about you, but you look absolutely amazing tonight. Words cannot describe how great you look," Mordecai complimented Margaret, who grinned.
"Aw, thanks Mordecai! You look really handsome yourself. I've never really seen you wear something so fancy before," she giggled.
Mordecai chuckled along with her.
The waitress returned to their table with their drinks. Thanking the waitress, the drinks were set beside them.
"We have complimentary salad and bread rolls coming right up. I'll give you two time to figure out what you would like to eat."
Mordecai and Margaret responded in unison, "Okay."
As the waitress walked away, the pair said in unison, "JINX!" The two laughed with each other, having a great time.
"Oh, Mordecai, you're so funny. I never knew you had a stronger sense of humor before," Margaret grinned, with Mordecai rubbing the back of his neck.
Mordecai smiled, "Yeah, aha. So, what are you thinking about getting?"
"I was only going to go for a salad, but it's complimentary. So I guess I'd go with some salmon," Margaret smiled, "It looks really delicious. What about you?"
Mordecai looked at his menu, "These paninis look really good, or maybe a steak, but I'm leaning more onto the chicken paninis since I don't want to stuff myself too much tonight."
Margaret concurred, "Yeah. The only thing that stops you from doing anything is an overfilled stomach," she laughed lightly.
The complimentary salad and bread rolls had been served, along with the waitress.
"Are you guys ready to order?"
The both nodded their heads.
"What would you guys like? I suggest the filet mignon with the asparagus, or today's special of beef ravioli topped with any cheese you like."
Mordecai looked at his menu, "No thanks, it's fine. I would like the chicken panini please with a side item of steamed vegetables," he ordered, deciding to go 'healthy' for the night.
"And I would like the baked salmon," Margaret said, with the waiter smiling at the two.
"Great choices! They're both very scrumptious! Your food will be ready in about 10-20 minutes," the waited said before leaving the two to talk for the next several minutes.
Mordecai wanted to start a conversation, as he was eating the complimentary food, "Salmon, huh? I've had it before, but it sometimes harms my stomach," he chuckled.
"Aw, poor you. I really feel bad for you when you said that, but it's not all the time, right?" Margaret questioned him.
The blue jay shook his head, "No, it's only if I enjoy it too much and all, but I haven't had it in a few months."
Margaret gave a small smile, "I love salmon. It's one of my favorite foods! I bet it's really great here!" She chuckled, "Panini, huh? I've had it before, but it was only a test taste," she mocked his voice; she couldn't help but giggle at her actions.
"Very comical, my lady," Mordecai laughed along with her for a second, "Eh, it's an Italian sandwich and all that's grilled somehow. Rigby hasn't probably heard of the word."
"I know what they are, I've just never really had one," Margaret said before the next several minutes flew like seconds, with their food arriving, with the salad and the bread rolls nearly gone.
Both have taken their first bite of the food, happy with how it came out.
"Mmm, this is to die for," Mordecai said as he finished chewing the first bite of his panini, "This is like, a once in a lifetime taste," Mordecai took a second bite.
Margaret was also pleased with the flavor with the salmon, "And this salmon is perfectly cooked, too, at a right size."
Before taking her second bite, she offered, "Would you like to try some?"
"No thanks, I'm afraid this might fill me a little, but you're welcome for half of my other panini," Mordecai smiled.
Margaret nodded, "Sure, but not too big. You look like you're really enjoying it."
"Haha, okay," Mordecai said before splitting the untouched panini in half for Margaret.
She took a bite, "You're right, Mordecai. This is really delicious. I can totally suggest to my manager about adding food to the menu," she smiled.
"You can do that with your manager? You must be a great employee, but I should already know that by now," Mordecai complimented.
"Aw, Mordecai, that's sweet. I should tell my manager the next time I have work," she promised.
Mordecai finished, "My boss won't let me give suggestions and all because he's afraid that something bad's going to happen."
"Oh, I see. Say, who was your boss again? He was at the Coffee Shop the other day," Margaret wondered.
"Benson, wait, he was at the coffee shop the other day?" Mordecai couldn't help but ask.
Margaret nodded, "Yeah, he's not a very bad person, he's actually really sweet," she smiled, "He told me all about you and Rigby."
Mordecai was worried now. "Crap! Now she knows Rigby and I slack off. This is not good. This is blasphemy. Crap crap crap!"
"He told me you guys work really hard when you feel like it," she laughed.
"I suppose it's true. We're lazy, but we get the work done. It's better to put a little effort into it than none, you know what I'm saying?"
Margaret nodded, as she was finishing her food, along with Mordecai.
Five Minutes Later:
"That was probably the best meal I've ever had. It was ambrosial," Mordecai said after finishing his last bit of his panini.
Margaret agreed, "Yeah. I really enjoyed it. Say, Mordecai?"
"Hm?"
"I just really want to thank you so much for what you've done for me tonight. You are such a gentleman. If there was anything I could do for you in return, I'm willing to do it," Margaret offered.
Minutes passed, they decided not to have dessert, while Mordecai had received the check. Fortunately, he had money, a lot of it, to which he was saving. Since he'd give out cash, he figured he'd tip ten dollars for amazing service, and a perfect hospitality.
"As much as I would love to stay here, we have a night ahead of us," Margaret said, with Mordecai agreeing with her.
They both got out of their chairs, leaving the restaurant with their thanks to the staff.
"Oh, Mordecai, you really didn't have to do that for me. I never had a date this amazing in a while," Margaret told him.
The blue jay then grabbed her hand, gently squeezing it, "That's not all that I have to do for somebody who makes me happier than I am currently."
Note #2: It's not over yet! That was just the restaurant part of the date. And I'll make sure that tenth solid will be done, but I can't think of one! The next chapter will be very fluffy, mushy, romantic stuff. I had fun writing this chapter, but something made me think it was awkward at some points, like ordering the food and all. XD
I want to make the fourth chapter long, knowing that there NEEDS to be more Mordecai-Margaret moments in Fan Fiction. I made chapter four a teeny bit short, but blame procrastination for making it like this, but I'm surprised it's not under 2,000 words! I'm probably not the only one who wants to read more of the two; they're so cute. :)
Thank you so much for checking out LeninWerke's story for those who have! I really appreciate you all if you've read and reviewed! I must be encouraging you all too much about a Mordecai-Margaret story, huh (I can't help but to shout it out and give it attention!) He makes Mordecai and Margaret perfectly, and it's just so- Augh! Words can't describe how perfect they are for each other in that story. It's what I wish them to be! :'D
Okay. My rambling seriously has to stop. I've been speaking too much of my favorite story.
