(A/N: This occurs after Chapter 2.)
Prompt
This was the first time Schroeder had ever been on a date.
It was Charlie Brown who'd set him up with a bespectacled girl named Marcie. According to Charlie Brown, Marcie is intelligent and refined, which supposedly makes her a perfect match for Schroeder. Schroeder is grateful that Lucy is out of town today.
Marcie and Schroeder are sitting at a table in a quiet little restaurant that seems to be made for romantic occaisons. They sit in an awkward silence, avoiding eye contact with each other.
Schroeder wonders what to say to Marcie. He remembers all the really weird things that Lucy has told him that girls like, such as diamonds, roses and love songs. Those aren't really good conversation topics though, especially because Marcie doesn't seem to be the type of girl who is charmed by those things.
Maybe he could talk about current issues of the day? Like... well, he realizes that he doesn't actually know to much about them. Probably from spending to much time locked up in his house playing piano.
Then, Schroeder finds the one questions that would determine if Marcie is at all suitable to be a potential girlfriend. He suddenly blurts out:
"Do you like Beethoven?"
(A/N: What do you think Marcie's answer was to Schroeder's question? Anways, in this chapter, I sort of tried to experiment a bit with "crack pairings". Hopefully, Schroeder will soon conclude that there is much more to a perfect girl than liking Beethoven.)
