Marshall's P.o.v

     I Flew up to Bubbas balcony to wait for him to arrive. I had been feeling down lately and I had stumbled across one of the old photos I had with me and Simone, before she went insane and icy. I just needed some comfort. And that, is provided by Bubba.

      I sat on his railing and smirked, waiting for him to arrive and give the comfort I need. The pain in my chest was becoming hard to handle.

       I heard voices coming down the hall and recognized one to be Bubbas. But the other made me confused. It was...Fiona's, a 13 year old human adventurer that's my best friend. I wondered what she was doing here.

     Knowing this was wrong of me to eavesdrop, I turned myself invisible as they opened the door.

     "So, talking about that was nice and all, but why did you call me here gumball?" Fiona asked, and that shocked me. It was late at night, the sun having set, he usually would be getting ready to sleep, not hosting guests.

      "I didn't want to talk about it out there because there was a chance Marshall could have heard me. I wanted to talk about him. He's become a...nuisance, in my kingdom. To me." Bubba said, closing and locking the bedroom door behind him. My eyes widened and I felt the pain in my chest increase, and tears pricked my eyes.

     "So...? What do you want me to do about it?" Fiona asked, and the pain in my chest increased even more. She didn't even try to deny that I was a nuisance! It hurt to know this is what they really think of me.

     "Well, I have just sent the order that he is banned from my kingdom, but you know  how incompetent my banana guards are. I was hoping you would help me enforce that." Bubba answered. I froze. I was...Banned? From his kingdom? But if I was...I wouldn't be able to see bubba anymore. But he thinks I'm a nuisance so he probably wouldn't let me see him even if I wasn't banned.

       The moment I thought that the pain in my chest became unbearable. The sounds around me turned fuzzy, I couldn't make anything out. I didn't even hear Fiona's response to that.

        I crashed down to his floor, making a huge crash sound. I could feel them staring at me but I was still invisible so they couldn't see me. My tears kept streaming down my face and I couldn't hope to stop them if I tried. Then my hearing came back.

      "What was that Gumball?" Fiona asked. I saw him shrug, even though my vision was blurry with tears. I kept wiping my eyes, only for more tears to replace the ones I wiped away.

      "I don't know. It came from the balcony...I'll check it out." Bubba said, and I saw him get closer. I floated up and my tears finally stopped falling, Me able to wipe them away.

      The ache in my chest lessened a bit because he was here, but I remembered what he said about me. I was a nuisance. A distraction. A...A problem. His problem.

     "Hello? Anyone there?" Bubba asked. I sighed loudly and he jumped, startled. I made myself visible and he gasped, then studied me.

      "Marshall? How long have you been out here?" He whispered out. Fiona gasped and walked towards us. I turned around to face them.

    "Oh, save it. I heard everything." I snapped. He looked shocked, then a bit sad, but then authoritative.

      "Ok Marshall. Then you know you're banned. Please leave before i have to make you." He stated, and the pain became crippling again. Tears pricked my eyes again but I tilted my head down so they couldn't see. The Vampire King does not cry.
