Holly Short wasn't in a good mood, not surprising really considering who just turned up on her doorstep.
"Mulch what are you doing here"
"Just standing here at the moment, waiting for you to invite me in" Mulch Diggums said. Probably not the best idea as Holly wasn't a great morning person.
"Ok Mulch let me re-phrase that" Holly said sweetly "Why the hell are you at my front door at 4 in the Goddamn morning?" she yelled.
Yep, though Mulch, probably shouldn't have been a smart arse about it. "Well Holly, its actually a really funny story. You should hear it" Mulch laughed nervously
"Then get on with it"
"Well me and my friends were out at the new pub last night" Holly groaned, she could see where this was going "We were having a great time but about an hour ago I decided to call it quits and go home. When I got home⦠well it turns out the money I spent last night probably should have gone to my rent and I've been evicted."
"Could you get to the point sometime this century please Mulch?"
"Can I stay at your house?"
" Hmm, how should I put this Mulch? How does 'no' sound? There is no way that I am letting a stinky little convict with a gas problem anywhere near my house"
"Aww come on Holly after all we've been through, you can't even spare me some space on the couch?" Mulch attempted to look cute and innocent but when you have a beard and smell like week old sandwich, looking innocent isn't really possible.
"After all we've been through, you still can't spare a few minutes to take a bloody shower so why should I let you in my house?" Holly was well and truly ready to kill Mulch now. If anyone else had turned up on her doorstep at some unearthly hour, asking for a bed and smelling like something from the dumpster behind Spud's spud emporium they would be dead already
"Because I'm one of your best friends and it wont be good for business if your partner sleeps in a gutter"
Holly sighed "Alright Mulch you can stay for a few day, but" she warned as Mulch stared making his way in the door "this is only temporary and for Fronds sake, have a shower"
A/N Sorry the chapters are so short, but they look longer on paper. I'm not sure if this is any good so if you like it PLEASE REVIEW. I'm not going to bother finishing it if its crap and if no one tells me otherwise I'm going to assume that no one likes it. I'M NOT A MIND READER SO TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.
