Bitter Sweet Tragedy

Marshall

Gumball pov.

"Marshall..." I whispered out in a groan. Letting the name linger, I realized what I said. I jumped out of my bed and walking towards my closet to get ready for my daily royal duties. Walking out of my room adjusting my pink attire to get the creases out I continued to walk down the hallway to my study to start the day of hard work. Yet as I did my mind begun to wonder why I called out Marshall Lee; my sister's boyfriend in my sleep.

This isn't the first that this happened through the other times I kept it to myself and tried to pass it by as nothing. Sadly that wouldn't wok my mind would start to imagine him and me together sometimes doing things that I wouldn't even imagine, just thinking about would make my blush. The kiss he gave two nights ago would replay in my head over and over; I can't even focus at the task at hand. Plus, after my semi-mentally break down I'm been having, well I think are flash backs of a past I have no memory of having. The thing that bothers me is that they all having to do with Marshall Lee.

Entering into my study filled of papers-3weeks worth of papers. I guess peppermint told everyone I was sick instead of taking over for me. Figures. Sitting down I began to review imported listings and signing off taxes. Soon after 4 hours of hard work and the pile not even half gone. Sighing and getting back into work, Peppermint walked in with a platter full of cookies and some coffee to help focus and to keep my sugar level high. "You shouldn't work so hard your majesty, you just got back from recovery." she said as she placed the platter in front of me. "Peppermint I'm fine. Plus this must be done, if not hen everything would be of."

"I know but I just think that you should take it easy bec-

"Please Peppermint, I understand your concern but I can take care of myself. Please don't worry yourself sick."

Peppermint looked down while letting out sigh. "Alright then." she said in an upset tone. Straightening out her uniform she huffed and left the room.

After working for about 2 hours, and accidentally writing down Marshall's name on some paperwork. I decided to take a walk a bit. It's just so frustrated, the thing that annoyed me the most was that I get jealous at the fact that Marshall Lee is with my sister.

Walking into the main hallway, I couldn't get my mind off of him. As I walked I soon found myself in the garden the sun was setting and the sky was bright orange as it slowly faded into a shade of dark blue. I walked at stopped by a cotton tree where I sat under and gazed at the sky above. I love sunsets but deep down I feel like I'm forgetting something. Images soon flood into my head. Images of me and Marshall when we're younger, children. With no responsibilities just living in the moment. We were smiling, laughing, running around acting-well acting with no sense. Images of how Marshall would hold me in his cold; soft arms making promise something.

No matter how hard I would try to remember the image slowly fades away. Why, can't I remember, why do this images haunt me so? Bringing my knees to my chest, tears slowly came out of my eyes. A slight pain begun in my heart.

Marshall Lee POV

I kept my distances, but seeing him cry in his meadow made me want to comfort him. When Bubblegum told me some years back that she made a serum that made him forget what ever made him so depressed and unresponsive. There was no way I could stay made at her. She didn't know, he didn't tell her that what he wanted to forget was me.

After watching him for about 5 minutes; feeling like stalker. Bubba got up from his tree and dusted himself off and walked back inside the candied castle. I can't wait anymore I need to this now and get my true love back.
