Sugar Sweet Love

Ch. 1 - A Night at Marshall Lee's

(Please excuse any spelling errors or names, auto-correct was being a pain in the ass. Anyway enjoy and please leave me your thoughts in the comments. Thank you.)

It was a normal day in the land of aah, Prince Gumball was running all around the castle trying to manage a problem that was discovered early this afternoon. It was getting late now and this problem has made it so it is unsafe for the prince or anyone to stay in The Candy Kingdom. The guards ordered a temporary evacuation of The Candy Kingdom and suggested that the prince stay at a friends house, so Gumball went to the phone and dialed marshall lee's number. They weren't the closest of friends but his house was the only house that was outside The Candy Kingdom and away from danger. Marshall picks up the phone and says with a husky and sleepy voice...

"Hello?" The vampire yawned.

"Hello Marshall? It's Gumball."

"...Oh..hey PG what's up?" Marshal yawned again still sounding half awake.

Gumball realizes this and feels guilty for waking him "Oh my, I'm deeply sorry. Did I wake you?"

"Yeah but don't worry about it, it was only a nap and I needed to get up anyway, I'm parched." Marshall had been asleep for a few hours and he had skipped breakfast that morning so he was a little blood thirsty (or red thirsty in this case) "So what is it his majesty desires?" Marshall teased.

Gumball frowned at the stab at his status but ignored it and focused on more pressing matters. "Oh, well you see, a problem has arose at the castle leaving me without a place to stay for the night, and I was wondering if I could stay in your humble abode for a few nights until the issue is resolved....if it does not inconvenience you that is..."

"What's happened at the castle that is so catastrophic that you come to me,of all people to crash for the night?" While Marshall waits for an answer, he thinks to himself 'why me, he can stay at Fionna and Cake's, or LSP, but he chose me? Why?'

"Well I was going to ask Fionna and Cake, but I received a message that they are out on a mission that will not be returning for a week or so. Lumpy Space Prince offered me a place to stay, but he is throwing a shindig, and his parties are a bit too loud for my tastes, so I came to you. A sugar rat infestation was discovered under the castle floors, their numbers are so grand that it is calculated they could devour the entire Candy Kingdom in a matter of a few weeks, and their numbers are growing fast. The extermination started a few hours ago, but these creatures feed off of sugar and so all my candy people, including myself are at risk of being eaten, which is why the guards ordered an evacuation, and here we are."

There was silence at Marshall's end. Maybe he was thinking??

"....Um..if it's too much trouble, I can find someone else...it's no big deal, I don't wanna be a bothe-"

Gumball was cut off my Marshall. "Bring a toothbrush because you sure as heck aren't using mine, also bring snacks, red snacks" Marshall hangs up the phone and gumball just stands there kinda surprised that he said yes."....He...said yes?..I didn't see that coming." After a moment of hesitation, Gumball's mind remembered the last thing marshall said. "...Tooth brush and snacks!! I need those now!!" Gumball ran off to collect these items and made a hasty escape from the palace to the vampire's house. He's arrived at the mouth of his cave and ran at full speed to the vampire's door and knocked a few times.

Marshall opened the door to the bubbly prince. Gumball was wearing his usual princely attire and was carrying what looked to be a nap-sack, pink of course. Marshal was wearing dark grey, loose fitting, sweats and a light grey tee-shirt with a hand flashing the rock-on signal on it and it was falling off his shoulder. His hair was a little messy too.
