Chapter 1: Homecoming News
Fionna's POV:
"Fionna, get up you'll be late for school!" I heard Cake say, she is my older sister, she was lucky, she didn't have school anymore and just took care of me, her name is Kate but even when I was little I always had a habit of calling her Cake.
"I'm coming!" I said. I got dressed, black shoes, thigh-high socks, blue skirt and light blue shirt, and lastly my white beanie hat, it had two bunny ears, but… it kind of gotten bitten off by the neighbors dog so Cake got to knit it back but now it's completely different.
I looked through my dresser where my glasses would be, I see fine without them but I sit in the back of the class in most classes and I can't see that far, or at least the words.
"Hey Cake; I'm ready for another day!" I said running down the stairs. "What did I tell you about running down the stairs girl? You'll trip then cry to me all with getting hurt." She said flipping a pancake. "Ah, so pancakes for breakfast?" I asked sitting about to sit down. "Yup, get the plates, cups and the juice will you?" She asked and like always I was glad to help my older sister. I set up our small table, ready to eat from!
"Here's yours and here comes mine!" She said putting one in my plate and one in hers, "Damnit, forgot the syrup." I got out my seat and reached for the top of the cabin and got the delicious sticky substance. "It's pouring time!" I said with a hungry expression, "Oh no you won't, remember the last time it was 'pouring time'?"
A week ago…
"It's pouring time!" I said. "Do what you want." Cake told me. I kept squeezing the bottle but nothing came out. "Cake this thing is broken!" I whined.
"It's a bottle how can it break?" I kept banging it to the table then it the syrup exploded everywhere. "Uhm."
"You will stay home and clean up all this mess!" She yelled at me first, I was going to have to hit the shower. "Can I take a show-"
"NO CLEAN THIS UP I'LL SHOWER FIRST!"
"Oh right, so no pouring time?" I asked. She shook her head. "Hurry up or you'll be late Fionna, you were late yesterday and it won't happen anymore." After that we ate in peace. I put the dishes in the sink, she would wash them and I went upstairs to wash my teeth and get my green bag I found my glasses near there and put them on before going downstairs.
"Bye Cake!" I yelled. "See ya later Fionna! Take care!" I heard her yell I went to the door and bumped into someone.
"Oh, I'm so sorry Fionna." I heard a soft voice say, then I saw a peach skinned hand in front of my face, I took it and he pulled me up. I looked up at him, his brown, almost light pinkish eyes and his strawberry blonde hair, or more like bubble gum colored hair. Some people at school would even call him Gumball because of his last name, Gumen, Bence Gumen.
"Oh, um, it's ok I-I wasn't looking and I was in a rush." I said trying not to look at him straight in the face. "Oh, well I was wondering if you would like to walk to school with me." He asked as happily as ever.
"Oh, ok." I answered even more nervous, I felt my cheeks heat up a bit hopefully he won't notice but he is blunt so I doubt he will.
"So how are classes lately?" He asked me, he wasn't in my grade but he always helped me when I was stuck in some work, he is a junior and I am stuck in freshman, a 2 year difference so I just barely get to see him anymore. We were always close but now I guess with the middle of the year coming around, everyone is busy with exams and stuff, what a full of boloney.
It was only November but even the teachers are pushing us for exams and stuff so he is either studying or helping other people out. I was stuck with my best friend, Jay. We on the other hand were always together to the point people thought we were dating.
"Well they are busy what about you? I'm pretty sure it's also hard now that next year will be your last." I said looking at the multi colored leaves covering the ground. "Well yes it has been quiet hectic I must say." He answered.
"I get a lot of work by the teachers and almost all the girls in class ask for my assistance and as a gentleman I have to help them." He answered clearly happy with the answer he is giving me. "You don't say?" I whispered as he ranted on some more.
After a few more minutes we finally arrived at school. "Well I'll see you later Fionna." He said leaving me. "It's not working out for you?" I heard a voice say and an arm go around my shoulder. "Shut up Jay it's not like you have any luck." I said.
"Hey if someone wants me they have to chase me." Jay said smiling, Jay was wearing what Jay usually wears, a baggy shirt with some crazy design in the middle and some sweatpants that were cut to her ankles. Yes Jay is a girl but she acts tomboyish, again to the point people thought she was a boy and thought we were going out.
"Yeah that what you always say." I answered looking at her, she just smirked, and Jay and I have been friends since as long as I can remember, and she is very loyal, good friend to talk to so I was happy to have a friend like her. "Come on, we might be late to class." She said already walking a bit; I saw her black sling bag with a chain going across it, attached to separate zippers. We have all our classes together so it we were pretty much always together, we have other friends but it was mostly just the two of us.
"Hey did you hear about the homecoming dance?" She asked me, her hands in back of her head. "No, when is it?" I asked enthusiastically. "Somewhere in the end of this month apparently, I couldn't have picked a better name for it." She said with a grin which got me suspicious.
"Why?"
"Haven't you heard that there will be new students here?"
"No?" I answered she looked at me shocked. "You really are slow anyway; you know how this school just opened like 3 years ago?" She asked and I nodded, "Well they need more seniors, juniors, everything so some student's from other schools decided to come here." She finished, raising her glasses up the bridge of her nose.
"Who knows maybe you'll get lucky Fi." she said smirking again, I blushed and punched her arm, she fake winced. "Well I should say the same about you shouldn't I?"
"Touché my good friend but remember I'm always right." Her smirk growing wider, damn her she's right! "Girls get to class you're already late!" One of the teachers yelled and we ran away.
We got to our first period class in no time. I sat in my seat that was next to a nice guy that was into technology, I don't know how it started but everyone calls him Bmo, his name is Bryan though, I guess he hadn't hit puberty yet since he still had somewhat of a little boys voice that many girls awed at.
"Ok class, there are a few announcements to make before we start, as you all might know the homecoming dance is on the last day of this month, Friday the 30th. The dance will also have some new transfer students so we would all like you to welcome the new students and make them feel welcomed, if not I'll take that phone away from you Bryan." The teacher said looking at our direction. Just then did I notice that he was playing with his phone. He quickly put it away.
"Let's get back to the lesson shall we?" He asked after a few other people asked some questions, I couldn't concentrate. I looked out the window and dazed out. How will they be like? Will they all be from different schools? "Miss Price can you give us the answer to this question?" I looked up at the board, math wasn't my best subject. "Ugh…"
"Mister, I don't get it you didn't explain it well, I don't know if that is a negative or not since there is a minus in front of it and a negative sign." I hear jay yell into my rescue. "Hm, I guess I can explain on that." He then continued with his lesson, "Thank you." I mouthed towards her and she gave me a thumbs up.
"You should stop dazing off in math class, you're already failing." Jay said as we left the classroom. "Yeah but I still keep on thinking about homecoming." I told her. "We have 2 weeks to get you ready, we'll figure something out.
"Wait you're not going?"
"No, you know more than anyone I hate parties."
"Please go I can't do this without you!" I begged her. "Oh come one, it's not like Gumball asked you to go to the dance or anything." She said chuckling. We turned the corner and there he was, Gumball, crap. "Oh, I was looking for you Fionna. Good morning Jay." He said and I looked at Jay that had her 'holy crap' face on. "Oh, uh hey there Gums what can we do for you?" She asked smiling. I envied her, I could never hide my feeling as well as she can.
"I was wondering if you two will help me plan the homecoming dance, I am the planner."
"Heh party planner." Jay said, her lips quivering so I could only tell she wanted to laugh at the thought. "Ow!" She yelled as I elbowed her. "So will you two help me?" He asked again, I really couldn't say anything right now so I looked at Jay.
"We'll love to, when and where?"
"Well we should start next Monday, a week before the dance. Is that ok with you girls?" He asked as and we just nodded. "Great, see you next Monday." He said leaving.
"I should really shut up." Jay said and I looked at her. "You think? You almost caused me a heart attack!"
"Oh come on what happened to the very strong and adventurous Fionna Price?" Jay teased, "Yeah physically not emotionally." I said. "Don't worry just stop thinking about it too much. She poked my head pretty hard once she finished.
"I guess you're right. Let's get over this day already."
*~~~~Later~~~~*
"Today was so boring." Jay complained. We walked to our lockers to put away our unnecessary books. "Really?"
"Of course you would say that, I don't even want to know what you were thinking about, probably about Gumen huh?" She asked grinning, she usually never called Bence by his first name, just his nickname and lest name, she wasn't really all that friends with him like we are.
"Shut up." I said hiding my blushing face. "Well what are going to do now?" She asked me and I shrugged my shoulders as we walked away from the lockers. "You want to come over to my house? Cake is making cupcakes." I told her.
"Yeah ok, what type?" She asked. "Chocolate." I answered. "What are we waiting for, hurry up!" She said rushing, she really did love chocolate.
"Hey, can we go pizza; I'm craving pizza right now." She said and I nodded, fixing my hat. We passed our favorite pizza place and went inside. We really like it here, it was like a dance club but at the same time it wasn't. "Hey Jay, Fi same as usual I suppose?" Asked the clerk, Johnathan, the entire town knows his story, he was a high school dropout that decided to come here and work at the Pizza Palace which we all think was stupid since he had good grades but no matter how many times people asked him, he says he regrets nothing and actually loves this place so we're happy to see him happy.
"Oh John, add an extra one for Cake!" I yelled as we took our seats and he nodded. "Thank god it's Friday." Jay said dropping her head to the table. "Yeah, I can't wait until Monday." I replied. "Hey, Monday won't be nothing wait until the week after that when he asks you out." She said grinning.
"Jay!" I quickly hid my face by slamming my head on the table. "Ow."
"Oh you know you want him to ask you out, you've been waiting for this Fi!" She said. I really did, ever since I met him back in middle school I always felt the butterflies flutter in my stomach whenever I see him.
"It'll all come out fine." She said with a real smile, not a grin or smirk a real comforting smile. "Ok girls, the 3 slices are ready. One plain, one pepperoni and one with anchovies all ready to go!" John said skillfully putting each slice in a paper bag. "So you girls ready for your homecoming?" He asked us with a smile.
"How did you know?" We both asked, and then we looked at each other than back at him. "Well everyone knows duh, this isn't a big place either and why wouldn't I know it's being held here this year!" He said very enthusiastically. "Really?" Jay asked.
"Yup, that's why I'm excited; I'll get to make pizza for you guys!" He said raising his arms. "Well then now we really have to look forward towards it." I said and he kept his huge smile which made me smile.
"What about you Jay?" He asked. "She's not going."
"What!?" Johnathan looked at her, horror in his eyes. "You both know I hate parties." She said in her defense. "But dude like, you don't have to stay that long and it's going to be the bomb, you know how there is going to be new dudes in your school?" He asked. "Yeah."
"Well apparently there is like these four or three that have a band and they agreed to play at homecoming so don't give me that crap that you're not going."
"Well sorry but-" Johnathan quickly cut her off, two quarters in front of her face. "I bet that if I beat you at 'Live or Die' that you will go to the dance, if you win I'll give you free pizza for a week."
"Johnathan what are you doing you'll just loose months pay!" I yelled; 'Live or Die' was Jay's best game, she can play it for ours and never lose her 3 lives and now ere John is asking to lose, he can play but not as good and when Jay gets a bet like this she will definitely take advantage of this.
"Don't worry Fi, I got this, this girl is going down." He said, he put a quarter in the slot and pressed start. "Ladies first." He said with his own grin. It's been about half an hour since Jay stopped and lost with over 10 thousands points. "I'm going easy on you just so you know." Jay said then John put in another quarter.
"In about 10 minutes this will all be over." Like I said John can play but not that good. "You shouldn't have sweetie, we all know you've stopped playing and I've started studying!" He yelled has he quickly tapped buttons and moves the joy stick. "No!"
"That's right I'll beat you for sure!" His score was quickly raising unlike Jay's "Fuck you! That's not fair!" She yelled. "Hey you decided to stop visiting to play."
"Why wouldn't I lost almost freaking 40 dollars a month!" He finally passed her score and quit the game. "Deals a deal Jay you're going."
"I hate you so much." She said kneeling on the floor. "Yeah you do, you know you love me come here!" He picked her up and gave her a bone crushing hug, him and Jay were close he was like her older brother.
"Yeah, yeah ok put me down."
"Told you I'll do it Fi." He said smiling. "Ok I'll go but don't expect me to go and dance like crazy." She said. "Nah, as long as you're there it will be fun." I looked at the clock and it read five "Holy shit we got to leave!" I said I quickly paid John and took the bag with most likely cold pizzas. "I want a rematch next time!" Jay yelled once we left the door. "Bye girls!" John said before we couldn't hear him anymore.
In 5 minutes we already made it home and damn was Cake going to get made, good thing I got her an anchovies pizza. "Where the hell have you been Fi?! Hey Jay would you like something to drink?" Cake said, her moods clearly switching. "I'm ok thank you Cake, we got you pizza." She said holding out the bag.
"Does it have anchovies?" She asked. "Of course!" Jay said smiling. "Oh, you girls are so thoughtful. She said taking the first bite. "Its cold where have you been?!" She yelled again. "I'm sorry, me and John were playing a game and I lost the bet." Jay said still disappointed.
"What was the bet?" She asked as she stuffed the pizza in the microwave. "If she lost she had to go to homecoming, if he lost he will give her free pizza for a week."
"Oh, good thing he won." She said, I laughed and Jay looked at her shocked. "Wow I'm beginning to think if you guys like me or not." She said.
"Oh we do sweetie but when this type of bet is involved, you can get a little carried away with your prize." Cake added. "Oh well at least I don't have to worry about a date, I already know Gumen is going to ask Fi." She said, I looked at her and she wore her famous grin, once more.
"What? Bence is going to ask you out?" Cake asked all excited. "I don't know he only asked us to help him with the planning on Monday." I said glaring at Jay. "Either way he might ask you, oh my little Fi is growing up!" She kept talking on how she was going to buy me the 'sexiest' dress she will find at the mall. I sat by the window and looked out.
He's not going to ask me. Bence Gumen almost never notices how I feel.
A/N: So how was the first chap? Did you like it? Ok one thing I want to clear up… haha Bence Gumen sounds like Benson from Regular show and it makes it even funnier cuz he also has gumballs. But I had no other name in mind and it kinda fits him? And if you didn't think about that well too bad I made you think about it now. Ok another thing, I might not be able to update as fast as before cuz schools being a bitch and all but I'll do it as fast as possible so don't kill me.
I also have this idea where how many people's review shows how many people read my story in my thought so please don't make me think you guys hate it by not reviewing and I don't care if you do tell me, I'll keep my cool and yell on the inside, I just want a review to keep me going and yes I'm begging, I'm a pathetic writer so just plz help me. Ok I'm done. Until next time, bye!
