Taming the king

Chapter 4

Fionna pov

I woke up and went downstairs to see Cake sneaking in the door.
"Did you spend the night at mochro's."
She jumped when she had heard my voice. "Yes I was hoping to be back before you woke up."
I laughed "A little late for that."
I went over to the kitchen and started to make breakfast. I made bacon pancakes.
"Cake I made bacon pancakes.'
I said handing her a plate and grabbing one for myself. We ate then Cake remembered something.
"Oh hey before I left Gumball asked me to tell you to go over to the candy kingdom. said he had something important to tell you."
"Did he say what it was."
"Nope just asked me to send you over there."
I got up cleaned my plate and went to get dressed. I decided to put on a blue tank top today instead of my normal blue t-shirt. And my normal blue skirt. But I also put on my tiara instead of my bunny hat. I headed over to the candy kingdom.
When I got there I saw peppermint maid cleaning a few things.
"Peppermint maid do you know where Gumball is he said he had something important to tell me."
"He is in the garden."
I went and found him there hoping this wouldn't be another "important" mission where I was actually just running an errand for him.
"Hey Gumball you had something you wanted to tell me."
"Hello Fionna your looking lovely today." he said then took my hand and kissed it. Well that was weird.
"So what was it. That you wanted to tell me."
"Well there this thing I have been wanting to ask you. Will you be my princess and rule over the candy people with me."
"Are you asking me to marry you?"
"Yes basically.'
The hand I hadn't realized he was still holding. I brushed him off and started to back up a bit.
"Um we're is this coming from."
"I kind of had feelings for you since your last birthday."
"Gumball I don't like you like that anymore. Im sorry."
"I think I'm going to go now."
"Why Fionna. Can't you give me a chance."
I was getting annoyed now.
"I did like you Gumball 4 years ago for that long. But you wouldn't give me a chance. And I got over you."
"Hey you were 13 then it would have been weird. I would have been dating a little kid."
"I'm leaving!'
I stormed out of the kingdom annoyed. I can't believe he was doing this now. If he asked me even two years ago I probably would have said yes. But of course he didn't like me then.
What is it with boys and doing that!
I kept walking not even sure of where I was going now. When I noticed it felt like someone was watching me. I pulled out my retractable sword.
"If your here to mess with me I'm not in the mood."
"Woah what's wrong with you." A certain vampire said then turned visible a few feet from me.
"Boys being really annoying."
"What happened?"
"I just found out that Gumball likes me."
"And how is that a bad thing."
I punched a near by tree.
"I had liked that boy for so long. Asked him out time after time to just be rejected. I finally give up and get over him and a year later I find this out."
"I remember that. You were crazy over him."
"How do you know I just met you yesterday.'
I sank down to the ground at the base of the same tree I had punched.
"That's not really true. I've known you since you were little."
"I don't really remember you."
"I don't expect you to. You were really little."
"How do I even know your telling the truth and not just lying to me."
"We'll you could just take my word for it or I could just show you." He took some powder out of a weird looking pouch and blew it in my face.
"Hey what was that for!"
"Shush look." he said
I looked where he was pointing and now noticed it was night and we were in the dark woods.
I saw another him walking through the woods looking bored. Intill he seemed to be distracted by a noise. I saw him walk towards it and saw a tiny me. I didn't look any older than 6.
"Are you lost."
I saw little me jump then say No well maybe a little.
He asked little me what I was doing out so late in a dangerous place like this. Then he showed off his fangs as and instead of running away little me ran closer fascinated by the strange man. I blushed when little me climbed into his lap trying to touch his fangs.
I also laughed we I asked him to show me how to do it. And when I asked him to make me a vampire so I could do cool stuff to. I had a bit of a aha moment when little me told him my name. 'So that's how he knew I thought.' I was surprised he remembered that for so long. I even fell asleep in his lap after having talked to him for a bit. I couldn't blame little me it was late. It looked so cute though.
I looked so at peace in his lap. Like i belonged there .He picked little me up. Carrying me like one would a baby he took me back to my house. I saw him tuck me in and kiss little me's forehead then leave.
The memory ended there and we were brought back to reality. He looked at me with an expectant look waiting for me to say something.
He looked like he was genuinely happy in that memory. He didn't look like now.
He still looked like he was waiting for me to say something.
"Yes I remember now. I woke up the next morning and I looked all over aaa with my sister cake but couldn't find you. I guess I must have just thought it was a dream and forgotten."
" I saw you three years later to but you had know idea who I was then.'
"Sorry but why did you wait so long to see me again?"
"Mom tricked me into running the nightosphere and I was stuck doing that for two years before I tricked her into taking her position back."
"Why didn't you reintroduce yourself then though."
"You were obsessed with Gumball then and it was annoying."
I laughed "The way you say that makes you sound jealous."
"Shut up, no it doesn't."
"Then why are you blushing."
He looked annoyed but then a mischievous smirk crossed his face. and he started to get really close to me. It was making me a bit nervous. I back into the tree more but he already had me trapped inbetween his arms.
"No not again why do you have to be so strong."
"You embarrassed me now its your turn."
He got really close to we're are lips were an inch apart. I closed my eyes not wanting to look at him anymore. I could feel my cheeks got hotter by the second. but he just laughed and kissed my nose.
"Your face is so red!" He laughed.
"I hate you so much right now." I turned away embarrassed and threw a rock at his smug face. It missed and hit him in the chest.
"Oh you've done it now. You better run while you can."
I laughed and ran away from him as he chased me.
