= Prologue =
My heart that is usually sugar coated with happiness and glee is completely stiff like stale chips that are ready to crumble apart at any moment. Why is it like this? Well that's because this amazing girl named Fionna, Yeah you might know her as that awesome bunny hat adventurer but I know her as the girl I have the biggest crush on. Well, she tore my heart open when she rejected me at my own party. I mean I can't make her feel any different about me since those are her feelings and it would be rude of me, but she could of gone easy on me right? Oh who am I kidding, I'll always be just another guy friend to her.
= Prince Gumball's POV =
My heart stopped as I heard the words of rejection spill from the lips of the lovely blonde adventure who I'd been longing to embrace in my arms. "What….?" Was the only thing I could say at this point. Fionna just gave me a slight smile.
"Sorry Prince Gumball, Your just not my type. We can still be friends right?" She said with her usual sweet voice that always warmed my heart, but my heart didn't feel the warmth it once felt.
I lowered my head and smiled slightly, not wanting to show Fionna the pain I just endured. "Yeah… Sure. But Fionna. Are you sure you don't like me in that way? I need a real reason. Please." I begged, I wasn't sure why I did but I couldn't help but want to show her how much I really do care for her even though I knew I had no chance with such a lovely girl as herself.
Fionna shrugged her shoulders and sighed. "Sorry Prince Gumball. I can only see you a my friend." She stood close to me and patted my shoulder softly.
I leaned down towards her, placing my hands on her waist and pressed my lips against her soft moist lips that pulled back quickly away from me with complete shock. "What the glob man! That's not cool!" She yelled and stomped off, "You need to cool off your head dude!" Fionna crossed her arms in disappointment. Cake hissed and showed off her claws, "Don't think about doing that again to my Fi!" Cake dashed off behind Fionna, probably taking her home.
I stood quietly staring at the floor for a moment the headed out to the balcony, wanting to feel the cooling breeze on my face. I felt like puking I felt so bad. This is what rejection feels like right? Having your heart torn open for the whole world to see? If only Fionna could feel different about me.
Just when I thought my heart couldn't take anymore shock Marshall Lee, that weird Vampire King, I can never tell what hes thinking, came out of no where and scared me. I yelped from the surprise attack from the vampire.
= Marshall Lee's POV =
What a lame party, Gumball is busy with Fionna in his room. What the glob is he even doing with her…? How annoying. I'm left here by myself with all these other people and not even one of them is my friend. I mean yeah sure I know them but they're all scared of me.
I floated over to Lumpy Space Prince who was talking about the latest line of men's shoes. The other Princes just nodded and agreed with the things he said. Rolling my eyes I noticed Fionna running down the stairs with Cake, Fionna's dress was ripped and her hair seemed a little messy.
I floated over to the two, "Hey, What happened?" I asked in concern of my friends.
Fionna glared at me as if I had done something wrong but all I did tonight was smirk at her before she went off with Prince Gummy Pants. "Did you want to confess to me as well? I'm not interested! " Fionna huffed before stomping off.
Cake turned to look at me and sighed, "Fionna is just annoyed right now. Maybe talk to her tomorrow." Cake soon followed behind her companion and took Fionna home.
Confess? I stared at the two exit the castle. Gumball. I quickly flew out of the castle and straight up to the balcony of Bubba's room. The poor little gum prince was slouched over the railing staring straight into the moon that hung brightly in the clear night sky. Gumball's usual pink complexion was pale, as if I sucked the pink right out of him. I floated up slowly peeking my head out from behind the railing scaring Gumball.
"Eeek! Marshall Lee!" Prince Gumball shrieked like a young girl as he jumped back. "What do you want from me now?" His cheeks were puffed out as he had a very sad and pouting like expression.
I leaned my arms against the railing of the balcony propping myself up to see my pink Gummy fully. "Nothing. Looking glum, what's wrong?" I gave him a very concerned smile to show that I really did care and it wasn't just some joke.
Gumball let out a sigh and leaned back over the balcony, staring off into the night sky just like before. "Have you ever ate anything bitter that makes your stomach flip over and cry?" He asked me, not even looking me in the eye, though I didn't mind, he was probably feeling uneasy and not wanting to deal with my usual 'Oh Gummy butt, Your so nerdy and lame.' kind of act.
I thought for a moment. "Yeah, I had some bitter shade of red before. I think it went bad or something." I stuck out my tongue and shook my head side to side slightly to show my disgust.
The pink prince turned to me and stared straight into my eyes, it sent shivers down my spine how serious he looked at that moment. "Marshall, that's what I feel like. But…It's not my stomach." There was a pause as he lowered his head, his eyes not visible anymore, "Right here." His index finger pointed to his heart. "That's where the bitterness is hurting me." Gumball moved his hand back down to his side.
I floated up and stepped onto the balcony floor, standing in front of Gumball. I couldn't help but feel the bitterness he felt in his heart go straight into mine. "Gumball." His name slipped from my lips as I brushed my fingers slightly across his smooth pale pink skin.
The prince looked up at me with tears that seemed to over whelming for him to hold back anymore. I heard a few whimpering gasps escape his pale lips as he continued to hold back the tears. "Come here." I grabbed the candy prince's arm and pulled him into a hug. "I'll pretend that you're not crying if it makes you feel better." I felt Gumball give a nod as he softly punched my chest with his hand. It was nice and peaceful, my arms wrapped around him for protection and him letting go of the emotions that he was desperately wanted to hang onto.
The two of us stood there in the moon light for hours, the loud music of the party was growing softer and softer as more people left the castle, after a while Gumball's sobs faded as he stood with his head still tucked into my chest and his hands tightly gripping at my shirt. I held his waist tightly and stared at the sky watching the small clouds slowly move past the stars as I felt the tears finally stop dripping onto my damp shirt. I heard a mumble from Gumball. "What was that Gummy?" I asked confused from the muffled words he said.
Gumball lifted his head, his eyes looked sore and red. "I said, you can let go of me now." His words were shaky. The pink candy prince pushed himself out from my arms and rubbed his nose with his sleeve as he looked away from me.
I couldn't help but feel at ease now that he let that all out of his system. "Sorry. Feel alright now Gummy?" A slight smile formed on my lips as I tilted my head to the side.
"Shut up…Don't you vampires have anything better to do then to bother princes like me?" He said as if the whole moment of him feeling low, so low that he had to look up at everyone in the whole world, was nothing.
I sighed softly then snickered, going along with the whole, 'nothing happened here'. "Sorry, But that's a vampires specialty." I started to float again and grinned widely, showing off my fangs.
Gumball just rolled his eyes and scoffed, "Yeah whatever! Why don't you leave like all the other party guests, geez." Gumball walked over to the doors that lead back into his room and was getting ready to leave the balcony. "Good night Marshall Lee." He said with no emotions in his voice.
I frowned and shrugged my shoulders. "Whatever." I floated away from the balcony and smiled. "Good night to you as well, don't be too scared to call me if you need me later." I chuckled flying off into the night. In the distance I could hear Gumball slam the doors in complete anger or embarrassment of what I said. Of course I couldn't help but laugh at the cute reaction Gummy gave me. I think I'll stop by tomorrow and see what shape PG is in. I couldn't take my mind of Prince Gum Butt as I flew back to my house and sat on my couch, playing a slow strum on my bass axe.
- Next Morning -
= Prince Gumball's POV =
I finished my breakfast and my morning tea with extra sugar as usual. Nothing seemed different. I acted as if I had said nothing to Fionna and none of the candy maids asked any questions. To them I was still the same old Prince Gumball. As I walked through the halls of the castle I stood at the entrance sighing, thinking of the party last night. Then the doors suddenly swung open and Marshall floated into the castle, he had a black hoodie on and his usual black umbrella.
My eyes narrowed towards him as I frowned. "Marshall Lee, What the heck are you doing? I don't have time for your games right now." I lied to him. I crossed my arms and turned my head to the side.
Marshall laughed floating up beside me and leaned one of his arms on my head. "Oh Gummy Butt, I only stopped off here to say Hi." He smirked looking down at me.
I continued to look away from him. I was probably blushing with frustration since I did feel my face heat up quite quickly. "Yeah okay, Hi. Now please leave." I tried to shoo the vampire away but all he did was float up higher.
"Also," Marshall floated down beside me, I turned to face him. The vampire king leaned in close to me and almost pressed his lips onto my ears as he whispered. "Tonight, let's do something together. I'll be at your balcony twelve a.m." I pushed Marshall Lee back and quickly covered my ear as I shrieked. The vampire king laughed like he always did at my scream and floated back towards the doors of my castle. "See yeah tonight Prince Gumball" He said my name in a mocking tone as he left my castle.
I clenched my hands into fists as I was one hundred percent sure now that my face was completely red. "Marshall Lee! You idiotic vampire!" I yelled at him as he left. That nerve of that guy sometimes. Just because he's a king and has a higher ranking then I am, does not mean he as the damn right to do such a thing!
