The earrings were perfect. Olivia turned her face in the mirror and watched them sparkle.
They were a gift from
her plumber. All the suggestive comments had gone over her head, so he thought
surely this would tip her off. He'd never learned the dangers of
underestimating a 16-year-old girl's density.
'These are great!' said
Olivia. 'So do you want to check out my pipes now?'
'Ohhhh, mamma,' thought Paul the
plumber. 'Yes,' he said aloud.
'Okay, well there's just this
problem with a leaky faucet.'
'...Go ooonnnn.'
'So could you take a look at it?'
She batted her lashes at him.
Paul followed her into
her bedroom, and she showed him to the shower. It was leaking some kind
of red substance.
Disappointed, he took the shower
head off and a dead rat fell out into the tub.
"Ohhhh, that's where I
put Muffy! Come here, you little rascal," she said, snuggling it.
'Great. Even the rat
gets more loving than me,' thought Paul.
In a fury of 'WHY DOESN'T ANYONE
LOVE ME??' he grabbed the rat by the tail and smashed it over his knee. Blood
and rat guts went everywhere.
This lightened his
heart a little. Then a leprechaun named Dinx sneaked up behind him and pulled
his pants down, which shouldn't actually be all that embarrassing for a plumber used
to showing everyone his crack while he worked.
Olivia cocked her head.
With his pants down, she was suddenly a hell of a lot more attracted to this
plumber guy.
But then the leprechaun strolled
nonchalantly up to her and said, 'Hey. What's up?'
Before Paul could say 'quibble',
Olivia and the leprechaun had jumped into a Lamborghini and sped away into the
horizon, leaving Paul to choke on exhaust fumes and rejection.
Thus Paul was firmly
established as a loser character who will undoubtedly get exactly 0 action in
this story, until maybe the ending, depending on how much the audience grows to
like him by then.
He got back in his
plumbermobile and put on an 8 track tape of the greatest hits of 1999.
He was humiliated and
past the breaking point. He wanted revenge. It was time to find out if a
leprechaun's blood is really green.
So he picked up the
grisliest spare pipe in his collection, donned his murdering hat, and put the
pedal to the metal.
While driving like a
mofo, he vowed to stay off women from now on. He refused to have any part in
the whole institution anymore. A gay gene slowly sprouted out of his campest
piece of DNA (the one that said 'yoohooooooo' to all the other DNA strands).
After 5 hours of
following the trail of Lucky Charms, he took a detour into Las Vegas. Okay, so it
was 12 hours out of the way, but it's friggin' Vegas, man.
He found a couple of homosexual muscular cyborg German dudes selling themselves on the street corner and asked them what the going rate was.

"Piss off, faggot," they
replied.
"Okay, so even
queer men won't have me," Paul said. "Then screw it. From now on I
swear off all men and women. I don't need anyone. Happiness comes from
within anyway."
"Oh," pouted a hot girl
listening through his window. "I was about to get naked and marry you. Sorry, I'll find someone else." She
ran off with another overweight plumber.
"Dammit!"
Paul sighed, and
continued driving.
He didn't even feel motivated to
kill anymore. But he didn't have anything else to do, so why stop?
It took a long time, but he
eventually tracked Dinx and Olivia down to a scuzzy motel off the highway. The
door was locked. He almost stopped before he remembered vengeful murderers
probably don't respect 'do not disturb' signs.
The best way to handle
a situation is to use the skills you know to your advantage. So he entered
their room by Super Marioing through their pipes and out into their bathroom.
They were asleep. The
leprechaun was snoozing on Olivia's stomach with a satisfied grin on his face, the smug
bastard.
Paul plucked him off and
threw him in a bag. Next thing Dinx knew, he was tied to a chair with duct tape
over his mouth in the back of a cargo van. He could faintly hear a 98 Degrees
song coming from the front.
"This is payback
for all the crap leprechauns put me through in grade school, you little Irish
freak," Paul growled, ripping the tape off.
"Oy'm noot Oyrish! Oy'm oonly a droonk!" Dinx protested.
'Do you hate the English?'
'Yes'
'Then you're Irish!'
'But everyone hates the English!'
'Hmmm... good
point....'
So, to cut a long story short, they
had sex.
Olivia, meanwhile, woke
up alone. She now had some embarrassing infections from all the interspecies
relationships, so nobody would have her. And she had a leaky
faucet, but plumbers wouldn't service her anymore, on the count of how she
treated Paul.
Also the next day a whale
fell from the sky and landed on her.
The end
