Happy Ten Year Anniversary

by IwillYURIforYAOIcartoons

It's been ten years since the re- re- reopening of Bob's Burgers! Tina lives with Josh, Louise runs the restaurant, and Gene has gone off to Vegas to see if he could make it in the big time. When they all get back together for the store's anniversary, sparks will fly, secrets will be revealed, and burgers will be flipped, all in the span of a few days... CURRENTLY ON HIATUS!

5. 2: Louise

Louise couldn't help but be in a great mood all day. It had been months since she'd had one of her siblings home, and it was a fantastic change of pace. Tina had gained a little bit of confidence since she'd started dating Josh seriously, and it showed in the way she talked and held herself. The two sisters chatted until dinner about Tina's series of dime-store "passionfruit paperbacks" that were slowly gaining popularity.

Bob threw together a pasta dinner and Louise joined her dad in retelling the story of what had happened the other day at work; Bob had hired Zeke as sort of an underpaid intern, and it lead to thousands of ridiculous, hard-to-believe stories. The one that had happened last week included a pound and a half of raw hamburger, a stray dog, a cheap engagement ring, and a vacuum hose attachment.

They had all finished eating and had just started cleanup when someone started knocking on the door downstairs. Louise raised an eyebrow and exchanged a glance with Tina.

"Wonder who that could be?"

She pelted down the stairs, drying her hands on a kitchen towel as she went, throwing open the door to reveal a girl, tugging on her dark shoulder-length hair anxiously.

"Can I help you?" Louise asked, something about the girl seeming familiar.

"Um, hey Louise," she spoke, "it's me, Gene."

A/N: *shuffles feet* I'm a little nervous to see what you think of this... It's where I intended to go with Gene's story arc since the beginning but since I've started posting I started to get more and more nervous to see who would stick with me after this chapter!

All of Gene's pronouns from now on will be she/her. And hey, if you don't like this arc, that's the most you'll have to put up with after the next chapter (it's much longer than the rest, stick in there)! Gene's arc should be mostly done after this and then we'll focus on Tina.

PLEASE review! It's not often I do crazy plot twists for characters like this and I'd love to know what you think! Even if you hate it, let me know why.

Also thanks for all the comments/kudos that I've gotten so far. I really appreciate you all.
