Sweet Tooth

Chapter One

Gumball's Pov:

I ran my fingers across my hair smoothing it up, making sure it was still standing the way I wanted it to. I pressed the button on the microwave that pops the door open. I grabbed the bag of popcorn and poured it into a big green bowl.

I carried the bowl into the living room and set it down.

"Yay, thanks Gumball." Fiona smiled.

I sat down next to her and put a piece of the extra buttery popcorn into my mouth.

"So what's on the agenda?" I asked.

Cake shrugged and looked at Fiona. Fiona thought for a second and then smiled mischievously. "How about truth or dare."

"Sounds good to me." I agreed, I always pick truth anyways. Dares are dangerous, it's always something that isn't safe, or healthy.

"Fiona first!" Cake exclaimed.

"Okay, truth." Fiona said, while giggling at Cake's enthusiasm.

"What happened between you and Flame Prince yesterday?! You came back smiling, but you wouldn't tell me what happened." Cake said eagerly.

Fiona's face burned red. She shifted her weight uncomfortably.

"I-umm..." She stuttered.

"You have to tell us, you picked truth!" Cake poked Fiona's stomach.

"Ok, ok. He... He said he loved me.." She said.

My mouth formed an 'O'. That was so adorable.

"What!" Cake jumped to her feet. "He said he loved you, and you didn't tell me!!"

"I was embarrassed..." She said, covering her blush.

"Aw, that's cute." I said. "Your first love. Wait, you do love him back, don't you?"

She peeked one eye over her sleeve, her long eyelashes fluttered softly. "Yes.." She whispered softly.

My little Fifi is in love, how cute. She is so lucky to have FP. He is extremely protective over her, and he is so sweet to her. I wish I had someone like that. Someone who loved me unconditionally, someone who needed me, someone like..-

"Who's next?!" Fiona asked, cutting off my thoughts.

"Me! I want to go!" Cake volunteered.

"Dare!" She said excitedly.

"I dare you to call MC and tell him your pregnant." Fiona said devilishly.

"Oh my glob, no!" Cake protested. "I didn't want him to find out yet. I wanted it to be special."

"You chose a dare." Fiona said.

Cake frowned and grabbed the phone. She dialed Monochromicorn's number and pressed the speaker phone button.

"Hello?" MC's voice sounded through the phone.

"Hi, babe, it's me. Cake." She said.

"What's up?" He asked casually.

"I have something important to tell you. Um... I'm pregnant." Cake said, then jammed her finger into the "end call" button and threw the phone across the room.

She took her knees into her chest and sighed. Me and Fiona could help but laugh at Cake's reaction.

"Gumball is next." Cake frowned.

"Truth." I said.

Fiona gave Cake a look, like they knew something I didn't. Fiona raised an eyebrow, and smiled. "Who do you like?" She asked.

The breath caught in my throat. My stomach churned. I could feel my face burning red.

What do I say? I should've picked dare. I couldn't tell her who I really like could I? She will think it's disgusting, unnatural, putrid.

Should I make up a name? What if she tells that person? I could tell her I don't like anyone. But then she might think it's her. Should I tell her the truth? The truth that I am almost in love with someone who I shouldn't like?

"Pass." I said.

"You can't pass." Cake said.

"Then dare, I choose a dare." I panicked.

"Okay." She said. I sighed in relief. "I dare you to tell me who you like." Fiona smiled mischievously.

Dammit. She found a loophole. I can't tell her. But I can't lie to her. Fi is my best friend, I can't lie.

"Can... Can I trust you?" I asked

"Of course!" She said.

"No matter how weird, or stupid it sounds?" I asked.

She nodded. I took a deep breath. "I...I like..." I shut my eyes tightly. And whispered the name, "Marshall Lee."

Just the mention of his name made me gasp slightly. I couldn't help it, my undying love for this boy. This perfect, flawless boy. Even his name was perfect. Marshall Lee.

Marshall Lee, the vampire king.

"Marshall Lee?" She asked.

I knew I shouldn't have said it. She probably thinks I'm a huge weirdo now! A guy shouldn't like another guy. Right? So why do I feel this way. It's not right to love him. But I can't help it, because I have tried to get him out of my mind.

"I knew it!" Fiona squealed, she jumped up in the air.

"Damn!" Cake said. She pulled out her wallet and took out two five dollar bills.

My eyes widened in surprise. "Y-You gambled on me?!" I was in shock.

"I always knew you liked him, but Cake thought you liked FP." Fi said.

"Why would I like your boyfriend?" I asked.

Cake shrugged an said, "I thought you liked Flame because they way you always comfort him when he overheats."

"I only do that to protect Fi. If he overheats too much, he could hurt her." I said.

"Hah! I told you!" Fiona teased Cake.

"Wait, how did you know I liked Marshall?" I asked, suddenly feeling self conscious.

"Oh please, the way you blush when his name is mentioned. The way you look down at your feet nervously when he walks by. It's only obvious." She smirked.

"If it's that obvious then do you think he knows?" I asked, while playing with my fingers nervously.

"I don't know." Fi said.

I hope he doesn't know. It doesn't matter though. He wouldn't like someone like me anyways.

Sorry about the short, dumb chapter. I needed a way to start the story. The rest of the story will be much better, I promise. c;
