Rainy Days (3 months, 10weeks)
It was a Friday morning, the whole day it was pouring rain. The sun haven't been seen for a couple of days. But that didn't stop from Rigby and Jeremy having a date today.
Rigby got a text message from Jeremy saying he was going to come over, about an hour ago. It's been two hours now and he haven't came over. He gave up on the idea of him going anywhere with Jeremy today. Sitting in the living room, waiting for that one phone call or at least a knock on the door. Rigby made his way back upstairs to his bedroom, and dropping his backpack on the floor. He made his way back to his bed and pulling off his sweater off.
Just as he drop his phone in the pile of his dirty clothes, he got a message on his phone; it reads.
'I had two exams today and there's a ton of traffic, I be there in 10 minutes. If you still want me to come over and pick you up'
Rigby was learning to understand that educated will be in Jeremy's busy schedule. A bit annoyed how he couldn't text him if he had a busy day, but he replied with yes.
As Rigby knew he was coming over, the chubby raccoon wobble his way to the dresser. Pretty much his clothing was either dirty or tight for him. He found one of Mordecai's old sweater, and pulling it over him. A bit tight around the stomach, but it was bothering him too much.
Later that night, Rigby was enjoying his double whopper, while Jeremy was munching on his fries. They drove to Rigbys favorite burger place which is 24 hours open.
Jeremy never knew he would like the company of Rigby this much. Sure the dates were usually short and quiet but having someone there at the moment is always worth it. He asked if Rigby wanted to say over the night.
"Hmmm I guess so, I mean if you don't me barfing and such."
"I understand what you're going through man, so no it's not going to be a bother to me."
Jeremy hop off from his seat on the couch and walked back to his bedroom. Rigby pick up the left over food and garbage. He placed it on the coffee table and saw Jeremy with blankets and two pillows.
"How about a sleep over huh, I felt lonely last night."
"Oh sure, I don't mind you staying here too."
Jeremy fix Rigbys side of the couch, then he fix his own. They both laid on their backs. Jeremy began talking about his college classes, his classmates, and how it's a bit stressful. Rigby didn't really care about college after his drop out in high school. But he listen to Jeremy as far his eyes allowed him to open them.
Jeremy poke Rigby in the eye playful; causing him to wake. He slowly open them and stare at him.
"Do you um snuggle?"
"...I-I don't know...is it okay I sleep by myself..."
"It's cool, I was just asking."
Jeremy played out with a smile, but he felt a bit hurt. He was trying to get the raccoon on his side. He was surprise he hadn't had sex with him yet

About a week later, Jeremy and Rigby were taking a stroll in the city. It was pouring rain still, but Jeremy had bought Rigby some new shoes. He was laying on the couch with the blanket wrap around him, Rigby was had daze off from the movie they were watching. He look out at the window watching and hearing the rain tapping on his window.
He pull out his new electronic cigarette, something about him is that he can't stop his habit. Its water vapor so its like 100 percent safe around Rigby. The rain have been annoying him for a while, since his plans are mostly outside and being cancel.
Jeremy look over at the kitchen floor seeing the wet towel Rigby use earlier. He push his head back and suck in the e-cigarette to his mouth. And blew out the smoke with his mouth still a bit closed. He closed his eyes and remember the small incident that happen this morning.
-flashback-
Jeremy was putting his clean clothes in the closet and once he was done; he grabbed his car keys. But, he heard the front door, someone was knocking.
He walked up to his door and saw Rigby right of front of him wearing his new sweater, and shorts. But he wasn't wearing any shoes; his feet were soaking wet. He pull the chubby raccoon in, and handle him a towel.
"Rigby, I said I was going to pick you up?"
"I was close by around the area and I just thought I could walk here, before you pick me up."
"You didn't have to Rigby, my place is pretty far to walk" Jeremy look down at his wet feet, "plus your feet are soaking wet, aren't you worry you get sick?"
"Dude, why are you worrying about me? I said I'm fine and it's really no big deal."
Jeremy wasn't so please by his non-caring attitude. He walk back to his closet and handled Rigby a shoe box. The raccoon accepted the box and stare at the item. He frown back at Jeremy and sat on the ground.
"Ah!? Jeremy please you don't have to buy me things."
"I just bought you one pair oh shoes, plus it grosses me a bit that you walk all day without shoes."
"My feet now get hot and I like the cold rain it's really no big of the deal."
Jeremy lend his back on the large door and gave Rigby a scowling. Rigby sigh and knew they wouldn't be able to go anywhere. He let out a loud groan, opening the card board box and slipping the shoes on.
They were a pair of walking shoes, they were sapphire with white shoelaces, and look very expensive. He saw the price tag on the box, it read 90 dollars. Rigbys eyes widen from price of these simple looking shoes.
'Holy shit, why are there so expensive for two pair of shoes!'
Rigby looked back him, he first pause on what he was going to say. Jeremy first spoke;
"Listen if you don't like them, I can just always return them."
"It's not that Jeremy...I should have call you to pick me up, I'm sorry."
Jeremy felt his heart being poke by Rigbys sorrow expression, he just flop on the couch. He pulled his arms folded on his face and let out a huge sigh. Rigby slowly walked up to him and place his hands on his red sweater.
"It's raining pretty hard outside and I forgot where we're suppose go today anyways."
"I don't mind staying in for the day dude, we can make popcorn and chill."
"Hmmm" Jeremy picked himself up and saw Rigby right beside him. "I like that, I make the popcorn and you wanna get the blankets."
Rigby smile and nodded back to their new plans of the day, Jeremy took the popcorn part. He hided the microwave from Rigby since he read online, its throw off radiation and can harm anyone who is pregnant. Jeremy was slowly seeing this, he was changing himself for Rigby. Well it all started out from the day he bought the pregnancy guide book. There were certain foods Rigby couldn't eat and a certain someone wasn't too happy hearing them. He read up about the symptoms and learn how pregnant woman are around their 3 months, milk begins to produce.
He also bought a baby crate for the kitchen, Rigby doesn't really like it. Though it is entertaining watching him to 'tried' jumping over it.
Rigby finally came back with a large blanket and two pillows. Jeremy was already laying on the couch with the large bowl of popcorn.
'So much for having this relationship short, but it's been a while since I went out with another guy. And a situation like this would add more fun to it'
Jeremy was just thinking about his relationship with Rigby, how far it got him here. Most of his ex's are just a one night stand and he thought Rigby would be part of that list. He watch him scarfing down his face with the buttery popcorn. Rigby was hogging all the popcorn and blankets. Jeremy enjoying himself with his beer, he was some how enjoying more of Rigbys laughter then the movie.
Later that night, Jeremy woke up from the sound of someone crying. He look around the room and saw no sight of Rigby in the living room. This already ruling who was the one crying, he walk over where the crying heard, the crying was coming from his bedroom. He slowly open the door, Rigby was sitting on the floor and had a towel held close to him.
"Uh? Rigby are you okay in here?"
The raccoon was spook from Jeremy, he quickly wrap himself with the towel. Jeremy notice Rigby was shaking as he got eye level with him, he felt a clothing on the ground. He pulled it up close to his face and it felt like if it was a shirt. He place his hand on Rigbys shoulder and pull him to face to face. Rigby tighten his grip on the towel when he was facing Jeremy front of him.
"I'm not going to take the towel off, Rigby. I just wanted to see if you were alright. Hearing you cry is a bit strange but little by little it seems to get normal hearing it." Jeremy scooted himself a bit closer to him, pull his arms around him, and pull his face close to Rigbys face. "You can tell me anything, you know I won't judge you."
Rigby had his face press against the towel, the small tears left on his checks were dribbling. He only look up at him once and drop his body weight on Jeremy. He pull himself closer to Jeremy and whisper softly and for him to only hear. Jeremy stood quiet and pull his arms tighter around the smaller one.
"That's what made you so upset, well it's something normal Rigby, but I take it serious if you are, alright."
'Talk about being overrated the smallest things, I hope he knows why it's happening to him.'
Jeremy closed his eyes and held Rigby till he felt a pat on his back. They walk back to the living room, where Rigby pull his shirt on. Rigby drifted to sleep first when he flop onto to the couch, and Jeremy watch Rigby sleep till he felt his own eyes closed.
