Previously......
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?!?
Now.....
Skips, Benson, and Mordecai have been looking for Rigby for almost an hour....and they still don't know where he is or where he could be. Soon it started to rain and it was getting harder to see.
They looked anywhere near the park and all over town. Nothing. The only place they hadn't looked was by the lake.
And there he was, just sitting there staring off into the lake. Almost as if in a daze, but it wasn't almost as if but more of like he cirtainly was in a daze. He didn't even look at them when they had called his name. He didn't realize they were there until Benson turned him around sharply to look at him.
"Rigby! We've been looking everywhere for you!" Benson screamed his face red as usual once he spotted him. Rigby didn't respond which made Benson even more furious.
"RIGBY!" Benson screamed even louder. Rigby finally turned around and it made them flinch a little when they saw his face.
Rigby had a tight smile on his face and his eyes looked so tired. His hair was sort of covering his eyes from standing in the rain to long.
"Rigby.... something wrong?" Mordecai asked getting closer to him. Rigby moved away which made Mordecai sort of sad.
"No. I'm okay. Really. I was just...thinking about things..." He said looking at Benson in the eyes, but something was off. He had a vacant look in his eyes, like he was there but not completely there.
It really worried Mordecai to see his best friend in such a state and to know it's because of him. It hurt in all the right places and stung twice as much.
Looking at his friend over again he noticed the little things about him he hadn't before. Like his hair, it was wet and sticking to his face. It looked like he had just gotten out of the shower. His face was very pale compared to the light tannish tone he always has.
His hands and cheeks were scratched and bloodied. They were also muddy and shaking, not just his hands but his entire body was shaking. He was shaking slightly so you had to look carefully to notice it. His clothes were torn, wet and dirty. The things that really tugged at his heart was Rigby's eyes.
His eyes were red and puffy. He had been crying and the dark bags under his eyes made him look terrible. That vacant and hollow look he gave when looking at you sent shivers down his spine and not the good kind. All the gleam and spark he once held in his eyes were now gone. Just like that.
"Did you need me for something Benson?" Rigby said as he turned towards his boss and gave him the same hollow stare.
"What the fuck are you doing here? Why weren't you at the park? And do you realize how late it is?!?!" Benson yelled in response to his question. His face and ears were red with anger. His fist clenched and turned pale from the force he was using.
"Sorry, it won't happen again Benson. I could work double the time I do now to make up for it." Rigby said in a quiet monochrome tone. He looked straight at Benson as he said it with no expression whatsoever.
It's almost as if someone had flipped a switch on him and now he was a dull, hollow shell of the once outgoing, trouble making boy they all once knew. It was also very clear that it wasn't just Mordecai that noticed the sudden change in his friend, but Skips noticed it too. Of course Skips would have noticed it he knows almost every weird thing that happens in these parks and just how to handle them.
This somehow felt very different and not knowing what to do or how to help his friend, who was clearly in need of help, tugged at his heart strings and made him experience the type of feelings he's never felt before. He wanted to help just didn't know how, but he'd figure it out. He'd do it to help Rigby. It was for Rigby.
