Bitter Sweet Tragedy

Party

"Hey Princess Bubblegum." waved Marshall. Marshall wore a black button up shirt with a crimson tie not even tied, matching colored pants, and black combat boots. His hair jet-black hair an was spiked up like always and his famous axe guitar swung behind his back.

"Hello, Marshall Lee." I greeted with all the confidence I had. I walked over towards Marceline and punched her in the arm hard, but I guess for her it kinda hurt. "Ouch, what was that for." She winced giggling. "Well," I started off walking in front of the two "That was for being late and..." I trailed off and looked over at Marshall. "Oh," she finally catches on "Finn postponed it because he forgot to send were the party was going to be at, so while we were setting up at the woods. Finn was getting texts from everyone why he wasn't at home," she stopped and took a breather "Any way we thought you were over at Finn's house, so we stopped there first only to find out you weren't and that's why we're here late."

Bubblegum took a deep breath and walked over towards Marceline, she processed all that was said and looked her in her demon crimson eyes and said "You could have just said that you were looking for me, because you thought I was somewhere else." Marceline looked at her surprised at what she said and started laughing. She straightened out her black and red rose vintage dress, and scratched the back of her head, fluffing her jet-black hair. "While," she started off "Let's get going so were not so late." She sighed.

The three walked in silence, the only things the made sound was the breeze that hit the tress and the owls that hooted at the night. The moon was high and full, stars twinkled in the midnight sky. Bubblegum stole quick glances at Marshall whose pale skin looked ever so heavenly, whose hair reflected like a black pearl with shined light on it. There were times that Marshall would catch her looking at him and flash a smile that would make her blush and look away.

 When all was quiet, Marshall swung his guitar in front of him. He floated behind the two girls who were in there own world two even notice. When Marshall stroked one key on his guitar it sent a chill down ones spine and chuckle out another. "Marshall what they heck." whined Bubblegum looking at him with a smile on her face "Oh, come on Bonbon, that was funny." Marceline giggled holding her stomach. "Sorry it was just so quiet that I thought, why not a little song." Marshall responded floating towards Bubblegum putting his hand on her shoulder causing her to redden beneath her soft pink skin.

She brushed off his hand gently and walked backwards smiling at him. "Its ok y-"Her voice was cut off when her phone went off. When she read the name of the caller she was filled with glee. "Bar- I mean Gumball it's so good to hear from you." Bubblegum's voice of glee and joy soon fell, her smile turned into a frown, her legs trembled, and tear came to her eyes and soon it ran down her soft pink face. Marshall started floating towards her, but Marceline flow. When Bubblegum was done talking on her phone, it was like gravity pulled her down; hard. Marceline caught her from behind and laid her down on the grass, with her head in Marceline's lap. More tears started to come out, they started to stain her once joy face washing away the happiness that was within her. "Bonnie what's wrong?" Marceline softly whispered, stroking her bubblegum hair.

"Nothing." She sobbed

"Bon, what's wrong?" she asked

"Nothing." She repeated

"Then why are-"

"It's none of your business." Bubblegum snapped, tears poured out. She buried her face in Marceline's dress muffling her cries and hiding her tears. Marshall came from behind, he knelt down by Bubblegum and rubbed her back, comforting her; they both were.

Bubblegum, with all her strength got up and looked at the two. "It's Gumball, his heart...." Her voice faded. Marceline nodded, "Say no more." She said comforting her friend. Marshall didn't say anything, he didn't have to his expression showed his sorrow.

Marceline then stood up, making the other two stand as well, Bubblegum still stained of tears and ruined makeup. Marceline wiped away the smudges and gave her a smile. "Go." She spoke "Go where?" Bubblegum spoke in a raspy voice. "Back to the Kingdom or go to your Brothers Kingdom." She spoke again. "Oh, that was my intentions-""Good, Marshall take her back to the Kingdom. Don't want any weirdos coming after her, I'll handle everything at the party." She pointed at the two. Bubblegum was breathless and didn't know what to say, Marshall let a sigh of relief, "'K." He said taking Bubblegum's hand and took off running. He turned into a giant black demon bat setting her on his back.

Bubblegum POV

As we flew to my kingdom to find out about my brothers where abouts and what his conditions where. I soon felt sleepy as the cold air hit my face, and the hair of Marshall's bat form kept me warm I felt sleepy; tried. I closed my eyes and soon drifted asleep, remembering the words the doctor had said."Hello, is this....is this Princess Bubblegum, this is Prince Gumball's doctor. Doctor Ice cream, I apologies for this in convinces but your brother," he sobs "The Prince had a Heart attack and nearly died today. We require your assistance"

I hung up before he could say another, Barnaby please be alright.
