A/N- Sorry for the horrible
first chapter. I read it over and I realized how bad it was! So overlook that,
lol, and just try and understand the story.
Oh, and a note to those who
reviewed my first chapter. Thank you so much for complimenting, I really
thought I stunk. Oh, and to one reviewer: Max isn't exactly hard on the eyes,
Normal doesn't love her, but he obviously finds her physically attractive.
You shut your mouth, how can
you say,
I go about things the wrong
way
I am human and I need to be
loved
Just like everybody else
does

Version)
Normal walked quickly to the payphone near his apartment.
It was just outside the coffee shop across the street. He ran up to the phone,
and searched for the phonebook that was there under the condition it hadn't
been stolen yet. To Normal's surprise, it hadn't been stolen today. He opened
it to the C-section in Business. He scanned for clubs, or Crash. Either one
would help him find where Cindy was. If she was there, anyway.
"Crash…crash? Crash! I got it!" Normal noted that the
club was just a few blocks from where he was. He shut the phone book and
started to run (he hadn't any idea why he was running) to Crash, where he hoped
Original Cindy would be a little less…well, a little less cruel. As Normal ran,
he caught a neon sign reading Crash in the distance. He slowed down a
bit, just so he wouldn't be out of breath. He wanted to be in there, out there,
and done with this deed.
"Come on Boo, let's take you home," Original Cindy
persuaded a very drunk Sketchy, who was throwing up in a garbage can by the
bar.
"Nah…I'm fine OC. Thanks anyway." Sketchy slurred
faintly, as he lifted his head from the garbage.
Herbal went to Sketchy's other side and grabbed one of
his arms. "Come on man, you need to go home. You're a mess, no gal is going to
think you are 'all good'," Herbal said to Sketchy, while helping Original Cindy
drag him out the door.
Once in the night air, Sketchy felt nauseous once again.
"Oh man, " Sketchy muttered, as he bent over on his knees to throw up on the
street. Original Cindy sighed to Herbal, who was rolling his eyes.
"Nice," Normal commented, as he walked towards the three
figures that were OC, Herbal, and Sketchy. "Is this what my employees do after
work? I may need to downsize."
Original Cindy opened her mouth to say something to
Normal, but Herbal spoke first, "Sketchy just got a little drunk. Happens to
everyone. Now, why are you here?" Normal looked down at Sketchy and looked back
at Original Cindy.
"Max forgot these things when her boyfriend picked her
up," Normal replied, holding out the pills, "I thought she might need them
back, but I have no idea where her boyfriends place is."
Original Cindy grabbed the pills from Normal and started
to run in the direction of Foggle Towers. "Thanks Normal, Max owes you one!"
Normal heaved a sigh and walked past a curious Herbal and
a drunk Sketchy to take the long way home. He needed a walk anyway. Normal trudged along to his apartment,
wondering about things. About his life. About his job. About everything.
While Normal walked home, he realized that he never had
someone to take him home when he was sick. He realized that he never had
someone who cared whether or not he got home safely. And while he realized, he
tripped over someone.
"Man Normal! Can't a girl walk down the street without
getting run over?" Original Cindy said to a surprised Normal.
Normal looked up at Cindy, his path of thinking flashing
in his eyes for a moment. "What do you want Cindy? Why aren't you with Max?"
Original Cindy looked at Normal thoughtfully. She saw
that look in his eyes. Just for a second, but she saw that look. She knew that
look. "I just came back to see if you would still be here, so I could…"
Original Cindy stopped, the words she was about to say were going to take a
little more effort than she thought.
Normal acknowledged Cindy's not-spoken words with a nod
of his head. "Yeah, you're welcome. And I'm…I'm sorry for not believing you
today. It won't happen again."
Original Cindy felt a smile tugging at her lips, but she
refused to act nice to Normal. Even if she saw that sad, self-pitiful look in
his eyes. "Yeah, you better be sorry, now I gotta go help take Sketchy home. He
is a mess."
Normal watched Cindy walk off. He was still a little
depressed from his previous train of thought, but he would live. Plus,
he thought, it's not like I have no friends.
But then
Normal tried to name his friends.
And it was then that he lost hope.
A/N- What do you think? Is
it still good? Should I change something? I really feel sorry for Normal in the
show, even if he is an asshole. I kinda lost touch with the plot line in the
middle, if you couldn't tell.
Oh, and if you want music to
go along with this, try Alizee- Moi Lolita. That's my song of the day.
