March 27th (about 3 months before Mucleman's wedding)
Rigby's P.O.V
Today's an another day-off as Benson is still accompanying Maellard at an urgent meeting outside the town. The weather's fine and all,and it feels good that we don't have to rake the leaves today. But it's not the same, drinking Chocolatte Special at the coffee shop without my best bud, Mordecai.
As I'm sipping the luxurious, humungous mug of drink, she walks towards my direction.
Yup, it's Eileen. The littlest worker there. I USED to think that she's clingy and annoying, but befriending her is not a regretful decision. Having many adventures together makes me really warm to her.
With a smile, she greets," Hey, Rigby! I saw that you're all alone so I came by. What's the matter,dude?"
"Yah, you know... one more day-off and Mordo's still hitting the cinemas with CJ, watching some cheesy romantic flicks. And here I am, drinking an expensive mug of chocolate alone. Uno. El solo lobo... The others are cozying with their partners as well. Celia and Fives couldn't leave their online chat, and Muscleman. God, don't get me all started with THAT."
Eileen looks worried, then her face lightens up with a smile.
"Look on the bright side, though. You still have me as your confidant! Tell me everything, 'cos... you know... that's what friends do. Right? To think that you're the only one who's unfortunate, you are wrong, Rigby. Count your blessings!! I'm kinda having the same problem here. Margaret's busy with her new career all around, and CJ... what's aforementioned just now. We still have each other, and don't you forget that."
Stunned, I am about to respond her when her coworker seeks for help. "Eileen! A child just dropped his cake at Table 4! Stop chatting and clean it up!!"
"You heard that, don't you? Bye~". I finish my drink as I stare at Eileen rushes to the store to get cleaning agents.
Starting the cart, suddenly my mind has deep thoughts about our closeness. Gees.
It's not normal of me thinking about these stuff.
Without even knowing what I'm actually doing, I texted Eileen to meet me at the park after working hours to hang out... with a surprise.
About 4 hours later--
Eileen's P.O.V
Oh, maaaaaaaaannnn I'm so late!! Rigby's been waiting for 10 minutes now and I'm only 6 blocks away from the coffee shop. I drive my car as fast as I'm not breaking the rules until I arrive at the house.
" Rigby! Are you there? I'm very,really sorry that I'm late..."
The door opens ajar and he's holding a bouquet of flowers that's bigger than his body. He looks friggin' cute.
" Um, hey. You're finally here! Come inside, m'lady."
" Hn, as I will." I smirk.
We sit together on the couch and he hands me the flowers. He speaks rather slowly," F-for you, Eileen..."
"Thanks! I really appreciate these," I reply as I'm sniffing them. Boy, these flowers smell nice!
When I stop sniffing the flowers, I see that Rigby glances at me like crazy. This is not like him at all... I wonder... I think he's just being nice without being spied by Mordecai and the others.
Silence finally leaves when Rigby says," Eileen, it's been a long time since we have many adventures together. And..."
Puzzled, I asked," ... And?"
"Will you...go out...with me?"
Rigby's P.O.V (again)
There. I asked her the question.
She looks very abashed, which is SUPER-cute!!
" Re... Really!? Why?"
" I'm gonna tell you the realzees. You're always there for me, concern about me, always be on the same page with me. Is that wrong...?"
" It's just... Urm... Are you doing this just because you're lonely? Or you're doing this for giving me empathy?"
She's not buying it. " I am NOT! I wanna ask you to be my girlfriend 'cos I really... Really... Like you." I emphasized.I can feel my face burning when she finally says...
"A-a-alright, then... I-i-i will. You do know that I like you too, right?"
Isn't it too obvious? "Yah... Everyone told me about it. Rest assured. So... Let's lose ourselves tonight. I don't want to forget this treacherous time."
"I'll do it later at home."
After that, we play video games while rant about stuff all night long until we doze off on the couch.
The next morning~
I hear an annoying sound ringing non-stop. I open my eyelids and seek for the sound that turns out to be the digital clock on the coffee table. Ugh... Am I still on the couch? I push the off button and continue lying on the couch.
"Eileen, wake up... It's already Saturday morning." Wow, she's hard to get up by herself.
She rather grunts silently, "Rigby, let me rest by your side until I die..."
I let her be sleeping on my shoulder right when-- knocks on the door?
"Is anyone there? The door's locked. Open it, please!" Oh no. The voice-- it's Mordecai!! Oh crap, ohhhhh crap! Can't let him watch us like this!
I struggled waking up Eileen. "Eileen, wake up. PLEASE MORDECAI IS HERE GET UP!!"
She finally wakes up, grabs the flowers and rushes through the back door, shouting,"ByeRigbythanksforlastnightlaterWecontinueandstuff!!!!"
I open the door and see Mordecai who looks tired like shit. He quoted,"Hey Rigby, I think I heard Eileen's voice just now? But I'm not sure 'cos I'm hella tired and I need to sleep."
"N-no! That's just your imagination, man! Go to sleep, you hole!" I answer him, nervously. Whew, I'm glad that he has no idea about my new level on my relationship with Eileen.
From best friends to lovers as they all say. And it's true.
End of Part 1
