Love or War-A Fiolee Story

Chapter 25 - Blade

Marshall's P.O.V.

He's back.

I haven't seen him in so long! This is bad! This is real bad. I thought I could control him.....me......I......myself.
I thought that he would leave........forever.

Now I know that isn't true.

I have no salvation.

Lexile's P.O.V.

" I love you."

Was I deaf? I think I just heard her say that she loved me.

" Huh?"

" I love you, Lexile."

There it was again.

Love.

I have never really 'loved' anybody.
Not since the 9th grade.
( I'm so old that I know what a flip phone is.)

~Flashback~
"Come on! We're almost there, Ashley!"
I grab her arm as we head to the top of the hill. It's our first year anniversary and I planned out the evening just for me and Ashley. I'm so excited!
" Lex, wait." She looked down at her black converse. I could tell she looked nervous.
" What's wrong? Are you afraid of heights? Don't worry. I can carry you, if you want."
She shook her head.
I didn't know what was wrong. I didn't know what to expect also.
" Lex............I'm seeing someone else."

" What?"

How could she! We've been together for so long! I love her!

" With who?! How long!? How could you!?"

" I've been with Marshall Lee for a couple of months. I don't deserve you Lexile! You're too nice for me. You deserve someone better."

Marshall? Marshall Lee Abadeer!? My best friend!

" My best friend! You've been cheating on me with my best friend!?"

I let go of her hand harshly. I stomp away from her in rage.

" Lexile! Wait!"

I didn't bother to look back. I didn't want to waste any more time on her.

Nice?! I am not nice!
I look down at the glistening river flow, a handsome guy with a poofy pompadour hairstyle, a sweater vest, Kakis, and some vans.
Maybe she is right Maybe I am too nice. Or in my case, look too nice.

No! I won't bask in the shadow of Marshall! I will not be the lesser man! I will not be the preppy boy that people describe me as! I'll change my style, my personality, even my friends. Everything to be the bad boy that girls shower over. To break Marshall Lee like he broke me!

This. Is. War!

~End of Flashback~

" Lexile!"
Fionna was tugging on the hem of my shirt and pushed me back and forth trying to bring me back to reality.

" Sorry Fi. It's just that I haven't heard that word in a while and I didn't expect it."

Her worried face returned to grin.

" Well, then you'll be hearing that a lot often."

She put her hands on my shoulders and her luscious pink lips on mine. At first I was shocked, but returned the kiss and laid my hands on her hips. She then started to move down to my neck and leave little pecks.

YAS! GETTING LAID TONIGHT!

Gumball's P.O.V.

So apparently, I'm Suga's new secretary because she wants me to do the whole dam thing and she's just the one giving the orders and I have to do all the work and I'm actually going to have to do work......PHYSICAL WORK! Do you realize how hard that will be! Not sure myself but I bet it will be agonizing. She and I got into a big fight on which type of music to play; a Classical composer or Marshall Lee. We decide that if one of the musician can play their opponents music better, they will be titled the musician that will be playing to our ball. Suga is gonna lose. Marshall could never play a Mozart peice. He's too..........himself.
