Previously.....
Home. He needed to get home. He started walking as if he was certain of the direction in which he was going. A blank expression blanketed his face. He walked slowly but with certainty in each step he took.
Now...
"So ... Margaret I was wondering..." Mordecai started a couple minutes after Rigby had left. "I was wondering...if you uh...wanted t-to you kn-know....go out?" He spoke the last part quietly and unsure of himself. He waited for her to speak and tell him that she has a boyfriend, she always has a new boyfriend each week.
"Hmmm~~ Are you inviting me to a date? Mordecai~?" She asked already knowing the answer, yet wanting to tease him before she gave her answer.
"Uh...yeah! Wait No!...unless you want..it to be...??" He stumbled out an answer not sure if it would help or just make things worse. His face was so red he felt like he was burning all over.
She giggled the cute way girls always giggle. She looked at him with a sweet look before answering his question.
"Yes I would love to go out with you Mordecai." She said with a honey laced voice that was just as sweet as the look she gives when she laughs or smiles." Wait...is it only going to be us....or is ...you know...Rigby going?" She continued and gave him a look that said she hoped he wasn't going to tag along.
The moment she said his name, Mordecai's heart skipped a beat and he felt like he was sweating buckets and his throat went dry. He couldn't think straight and flashes of yesterday's events up on the rooftop came flooding into his mind. He felt his stomach tie in knots and his throat felt as if it was closing and he couldn't say anything. He felt dizzy and tired, he tried to collect himself back together before answering her.
"No, he's not tagging along. It's just you and me." He said with a bit of worry masked behind his words."Why would you think that he would come along with us?" He asked when he saw the look of relief on her face when he said Rigby wasn't going with them.
"Well, you and Rigby are always together. It's as if you two were connected at the hip. We don't see you without seeing him next to you, and vice versa. It's funny really, it's almost as if you two are a couple!" She responded back and ended it laughing at her own joke.
"Hehe...yeah." He thought about it and it was true, they were always together. Always. That didn't bother him before, but...now he didn't know how he felt about it. He felt...different about Rigby, after he confessed to him the day before. He felt a bit weirded out now.
"Well, I have to get back to work. See you when and where?" Margaret said before she got back to work.
"Um...yeah, Saturday at 8. Here." Mordecai responded back.
Margaret nodded and smiled at him before heading back to work. Mordecai kept sitting in the same spot, thinking. He was snapped out of his thoughts by the sound of thunder. He didn't realize it was raining so hard.
Mordecai stepped out of the Cafè and was confronted with the heavy rain and strong winds. Just as lightning flashed in the sky the roaring thunder that followed didn't seem to be the only thing heard. Mordeca thought he heard the sound of someone crying out.
The voice he heard was very similar to Rigby's, yet he pushed the thought back. Maybe he was thinking too much of him that his mind was playing games with him.
He got in the cart and started to drive back to the park. On the way back his thoughts were out of control that he didn't notice the rain stop. Not until he got in front of the parks gates. He couldn't help but think about Rigby and how he must be so upset with him.
What type of person rejects someone who confessed their love for you and then date someone the next day right in front of them, but it was Rigby who was told him to go after her and he was the one who asked to go to the café so that he could talk to her.
As Mordecai got out the golf cart he was thinking of a way to apologize to Rigby and hopefully get back to the way things were before any of this love shit happened. When he entered the house it was really quiet and knowing the time it must me because everyone was sleeping. He walked up the stairs to get to the room he shared with Rigby when he heard the front door open.
Skips and Benson stood at the entrance soaking wet and panting hard as if they had ran all the way back from wherever they were. He waited on the stairs for them to catch their breaths and calm down. Once they could breath normally they looked at him with such an urgent expression.
"Oh, Mordecai! Thank goodness you're here! Where's Rigby?" Benson said with a little bit relief coated with worry at the question.
"Um...Rigby? Well I just got back myself not too long ago, so I don't know if he's in the room or not. I'll go check, but he left the café a long while ago. He should be back by now." Mordecai responded back and continued to walk up the steps.
He reached the entrance to their shared room. It seemed as if time slowed down as he reached for the doorknob. He opened the door and peered inside.
Empty. The room was empty of any small trouble makers. Mordecai looked confused on why he wasn't back yet. He checked the bathroom, like the room. Empty. Mordecai walked back down stairs. He turned to look at skips and Benson with a nervous and confused look.
"Rigby's...not here?" He looked at them not knowing what to do as he just stood there. They just kept looking at him with such concerned expressions.
"Didn't you and Rigby go to the café together in the afternoon? Why aren't you guys together now?!?!" Skips responded back, well more like yelled back.
"We were!!! When we got there Rigby decide to come back to the park and I don't know where he could be right now!" Out of breath and concerned about the whereabouts of his best friend, Mordecai looked out the window and into the stormy night.
It was raining hard and the wind was strong. Rigby would be soaked and cold out there. Where could he have gone? Why wasn't he back yet? What is he thinking!? Is he alright?!?
Okay it's here. The whatever chapter this is. Hope you liked it if not...I don't care. I'll try to have them out sooner.
