Gumlee (Marshall Lee × Prince Gumball)

Chapter 22

Marshall's POV

Gumball kept tapping and tapping. I put a hand on his leg and he looks at me like he has no clue he was shaking his legs.

Flame and Fionna stare at us as we exchange looks. Fionna then starts, "so how is your guys' relationship going?"

"Fine," we say in unison. We both look each other in the eye and I mouth the words 'are you okay?'

He ignores me though and looks away putting his head on his hands, holding his head and covering his face from my view.

Everyone sits in silence awkwardly waiting for their food. Gumball stands up, "I need to use the restroom."

He walks away but I'm still concerned and go after him.

"Gumball, is it that time of month like what's going on?" I open the bathroom door.

"I just, I can't do it," he replies looking in the mirror.

"Can't do what?"

"Fionna feels like a sister me and Flame is the worst."

I frown, "we can go back to my place you know, like we originally planned."

"I don't want to do that to Fionna."

"I'm not concerned about Fionna though I'm concerned about my Gumwad."

"I just..."

"Hey want to do something fun?"

"What?"

"What if we tried to make Flame look bad?" I smiled like a demon.

"T-that actually doesn't sound to bad."

After some cheering up we both walk out there. "Sorry," I mention," Gumball is a bit sick today."

"Oh it's fine," waved flame.

"Hey Flame, why do they call you that, flame?" Asked Gumball, I already knew and the reason was wel...

"Um... Oh just a silly nick name, with a long story." He replied.

"No tell me," Gumball smiled.

"Yea tell us," I but in. Fionna looking curious now.

Flame blushed, "I uh... I tried to eat fire but I ended up burning a part of my tongue and now I don't taste spice."

"Awe, you must of been little!" Fionna laughs.

"Uh... This was at the beginning of the year."

Gumball and I laugh a bit and Fionna starts laughing.

Flame looks really embarrassed, "stop laughing I thought it was candy."

Fionna laughed more.

And I'm not sure how but this ended up in them break out in a fight.

Gumball and I snuck out giggling to ourselves and once we got to my place. We ordered pizza and drank some beer I had in my fridge.

The whole night contained of us making out and falling asleep together. It was one of the better nights in my opinion. "Gumball?" I say as we're almost asleep.

"Yea?" I hear his groggy voice.

I kiss him. He smiles and falls asleep as I whisper the words, "I'm in love with you."

After that I shut my eyes and fall asleep hoping he didn't hear but hoping he did hear at the same time.
