Chapter 2
A/N I'm going to be saying "Mordecai" instead of "Morgan" 'cause it'd make more sense to you guys. :)
Everyone was sitting on the steps, staring at the new employee who was standing next to Benson. Well, everyone except Rigby, who was trying not to laugh. As much as he wanted to help his bro, he couldn't help but let out a giggle when he caught Mordecais eye.
Mordecai, meanwhile, was wishing that someone could stab Rigby. He hated the raccoon so much in that small time he stood waiting for Benson to introduce him to the guys on the steps.
After the storm had passed, Rigby went down to "das coolest" and bought some girl clothes, which earned him some weird looks from the cashier.
When he bought them back, Mordecai put them on and he had to admit, as he stood in front of the mirror when Rigby went downstairs, he looked pretty good in girls clothes.
He wore a dark blue singlet which faded to a dark purple at the top, a black leather jacket with silver colored zips, a grey denim skirt with jagged trimming at the bottom, black leggings and black combat boots.
Benson cleared his throat, but he didn't need to get anyones attention. All eyes were on the girl next to him.
"Guys, we have a new employee at the park. As Rigby has informed me, her name is Morgan."
Mordecai smiled. "Hey."
Benson continued. "Now, she's had a pretty rough past, so I don't want anyone giving her crap, alright?" He flipped the front page of his clipboard over just as Mordecai went over and sat next to Rigby. Once his butt hit the wood, he let out a high giggle and Benson looked up.
Mordecai went silent and their eyes met. Benson began to blush. He shut his eyes, cleared his throat, opened them, and read the chores out to the employees, all the while trying not to look at the duo who were struggling to hold in their laughter
"Ugh I hate this job," Rigby said and he fell back onto the grass. "Why do we have to water the plants? Isn't that what rain is for?"
"Come on dude, we-" he turned around and he frowned when he saw the raccoons eyes closed. -"get up man."
"Noooo." Rigby stretched the "o" and finally, Mordecai rolled his eyes and turned around. Soon, Benson turned up.
"Well, well, well. Slacking on the job are we?" Benson said when he saw Rigby sprawled out on the grass. Rigbys eyes snapped open and he jumped up, grabbing his can.
"Sorry Benson," he said.
Frowning at the raccoon, Benson looked up at Mordecai, who turned his head and just like that, Benson was at a loss for words. It was about 5 seconds till Mordecai clicked his fingers in front of his face.
Benson shook his head, "Sorry Morgan, I kinda spaced out there," he let out an awkward chuckle, then stopped, seeing Mordecai staring at him, "Um, I better go check on Muscle Man and Fives. K-Keep up the good work." He said, then turned and went off.
Mordecai watched him go then looked at Rigby, who had crashed back on the grass. "Dude, is it just me or was Benson...not himself?"
Rigby raised one shoulder in an attempted shrug, "I don't know and I don't care," he said.
Mordecai rolled his eyes and went back to the chrysanthemums he was watering before their boss walked up.
After the duo had finished their chores, they went into the house to play video games. Halfway through though, Mordecai put his controller down and piped up.
"Um, Rigby, can we do something else?"
Rigby paused the game and turned to the blue jay, who was decked out in girls clothes. It kept weirding him out everytime he saw Mordecai like that but he had to remind himself that he was a girl now...thanks to him, "Ok wherw? Arcade? Karaoke? Coffee Shop?"
Mordecai shook his head. "No, I mean, why don't we go shopping?"
"What? But I already got you clothes today."
"I know, but I saw this really cute jacket today when we were going to get the new video game and I want to buy it."
Rigby stared at him.
"What?"
"Did-did you just say...cute?"
Mordecai cocked an eyebrow down confused, "Yeah, so?"
"You just said cute. Why the heck did you say cute?"
Mordecai stopped. He groaned when it hit him, "Ugh the potion's already settled in."
"Thats not the only thing thats settled in." Rigby said sarcastically. Mordecai punched him then layed back in the couch.
"Aw man! What am I gonna do? If anyone finds out, Skips'll know and we'll both be dead. I hate being a girl."
Rigby rubbed his arm till the ache went down then looked at him, "Aw come on dude, it can't be all bad."
Mordecai took his hand away, "What?"
"I mean, Benson likes you so-"
"Wait, what?!"
"Yeah. So maybe if you got flirty with him, you could get us raises, paid days off and awesome trips on our days off-"
"What? No. I'm not gonna take advantage of Benson just 'cause he likes me oh god that sounds so weird." Mordecai mad a face at how awkward it sounded just from coming out of his mouth then he sighed, "Ok. Getting away from that...how can being a girl not be that bad?"
Rigby frowned then his face brightened when he came up with something. "Girls get treated better."
Mordecai sat up and listened to the raccoon as he continued.
"They get to wear makeup, wear really fancy clothes and are treated waay better than guys."
Mordecai took this in with a frown, but when it sunk in, he smiled. "Oh yeah...yeah, ok. Hm maybe I could ride this "girl thing" out for a while just until Skips finds out."
"You know, if I was a girl, I would flirt with him and get paid days off and would you? No 'cause-OW!"
Mordecai had punched him again.
"Dude, will you stop punching me?"
Ignoring the question, Mordecai rolled his eyes, "You'd really flirt with Benson just to get paid days off?"
Rigby nodded, "Heck yeah I would."
"I doubt you'd have the guts to do that."
"Pssh whatever."
Mordecai smiled and punched him again, just for the fun of it.
Rigby glared at the blue jay just as he stood.
"Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got a jacket to buy." He walked to the door. "If Benson asks where I am, tell him," grasped the doorknob, "Since he has a crush on me, he won't care," turned it and pulled the door open. With a sly grin at the pissed off raccoon, he stepped out and shut the door behind him.
