Nicole's Love and Affection

chapter 1: The start of summer

Elmore. The hometown of the Watterson family. Gumball, and Darwin just got home from their stroll in the park, because school is already out for the summer, and it was already the day after the last day of the school year.

"Do you want to play video games, Gumball?" said Darwin

"No, I just want to be alone for a minute." replied Gumball

"What's wrong, buddy?"

"I'm worried that my mom doesn't really love me."

"of course she loves you Gumball. Why do you think she followed you to school, even though she was meddling. And what about the time when she offered you to play a puzzle with her?"

"I know, but remember the other times in the past, Darwin?"

"That was in the past. So you need to forget about it."

"I just need some time alone, okay."

"Okay, but let me know if you are too depressed about this."

"I know."

Gumball went up to his room, sat on his, bed, and he was wondering about his mom.

"Does my mom even love me?" he thought out loud

Gumball remembered the times she yelled at him in the past. The DVD, the time when he babysat Anais, and the other times when she screamed at him. Gumball really hated himself for making Nicole angry.

Gumball then started to shed a few tears down his cheeks. "I knew I wasn't the son I want for my mom. She deserves someone better than me."

But before he could go talk to Darwin about this, he heard the door open.

"Gumball, Darwin, I'm home." It was Nicole Watterson. Gumball's sexy mother. "Hi Darwin. how was your day?" said Nicole happy to see her adoptive son.

"Where's your brother?" said Nicole curiously

"He's in the bedroom." replied Darwin

"Is he doing something inappropriate online, again?" said Nicole exasperated

"No, he is just sitting on the bed."

"Okay."

Nicole then went upstairs. "Hi Gumball." she said in a very happy tone. She was always happy to see her son after she got home from work. "How was your..." Nicole Paused and found Gumball under the covers. She gently pulled the covers off of him, and found him in his tighty whities, crying.

"Gumball" said a very worried Nicole. "What's wrong, dear?" Nicole then sat down next to Gumball, and then put her hand on his furry, naked back.

Gumball got up, and he said while wiping off the tears. "Nothing, nothing. I was just about to go to sleep early. That's all." said Gumball trying to look happy for her as possible. Nicole on the other hand wasn't convinced.

"Come on, Gumball. You can tell me anything. I want you to feel happy, and i don't want you to be depressed." said Nicole in a very caring tone.

"Alright, you're too smart for me. I was thinking."

"About what, Gumball?"

"No matter what I do, it always makes you angry. Remember the DVD we tried to send back? and I feel like you are better off with a different son. You deserve someone better. I have a feeling that you don't love me anymore." Said Gumball, breaking down into tears again

Nicole couldn't help but gasp at what he just said. "Gumball...Of course I still love you. No one could ever replace you, Gumball. I will always love you with every beat of my heart. You are one of my favorite things in the whole wide world. Come here."
