MARSHALLS P.O.V

Fionna. What are you thinking about right now? How are you handling this situation? How are you feeling about all of this? I don't want you to go through these high waters alone. Fionna, my little bunny, my precious gem, mien ein und alliene (German for, "my one and only."), you know I will always be here for you. Holding you in my arms even if it's just to take you to the Candy Kingdom, just you being around me makes me the happiest man alive... or uh well something like that. Fionna let me know what's going through your head. Fionna tonight at the party prepare yourself, you're going to have a dance with the devil.

Wait. Should I make another move? What if she doesn't me to make another move? She told me she was scared before even though she told me I was right should I still take that into consideration. This is tough; I hope to only make her happy. Fionna you're unlike anything I ever imagined why am I worrying so much about just a dance. Glob my brain is train wreck. Fionna I hope one day you can one day understand my feelings for you.

"Marshall." Fionna quietly spoke.

"Yea Fee?" I replied.

"Why wouldn't Gumball tell us about his plan? Doesn't he trust us?" she asks sheepishly.

"Fionna, I couldn't tell you why he did what he did, all I can say is we have to trust his judgment, he is a genius after all." I explained.

"How can we trust him when he couldn't trust us with something as important as his life?" She retorted.

"Fionna... it wasn't just his life at stake, it was ours as well. None of us could understand what was going through his mind at the time. He's back now Fee let's just celebrate, he's our friend I believe him." I added.

"You're right. It's just I'm worried Marshall. What if he's hiding other stuff from us? What if he doesn't believe that we can be a part of his world Marshall?" She muttered. She put her face into my chest and sighed, "I can't lose him again Marshall, I can't handle it again." Her voice wobbled. I felt my heart ache; she obviously cared about Gumwad I understand why there was a time when she cared for him like I do for her, but later they just became good friends. I just want to be there for her.

"I know Fee, I know. I know Gumball he wouldn't hold something back from us unless he had a good reason." I stroked her head trying to comfort her.

"Marshall." She whispered.

"Don't leave me." She hugged me. She had tight grip on my flannel. I can only imagine she was about to cry.

"I wouldn't dream of it." I hugged her tightly letting her know I'm here for her. I don't ever want to let her go.

The rest of the flight went in by in a breeze with a silence that was almost unbearable but I'm happy to see she felt the need to talk to me. Once we got to the palace doors we waited for Gumball, Cake, Mono, and the Kittens. They weren't too far behind us; we waited about five minutes before they got here.

Cake was carrying Gumball and Mono had the Kittens, when Cake shrunk down to normal size and quickly approached us.

"Hiya suges hope we didn't keep you waiting to long." Cake said stopping before us.

"No, Marshall and I haven't been here long." Fionna replied.

"Well good. Now Sweeties let's go party with some sweeties!" Cake exclaimed. We all started wooping and cheering about to run inside when we heard one of the kittens yell something. "Let's get candy!" shortly after the rest of them cheered in agreement and ran off into the castle where the party was being held.
