The Meeting

.:: Gumballs Point Of View ::.

Im walking down the hallway, on my way towards the track feild to deliver a letter to the new kid. 

Honestly id rather be spending my time with Fionna, but whatever has to be done, has to be done. 

"Aye! Gummball!" i turn around at the sound of Fionna chasing after me, I smile and stop letting her catch up to me. "Hey there Fionna. How are you today?" I ask, as she finally makes it to me, breathing heavily from running. 

"Oh, im good.. I  guess? But hey! I heard you were going to meet the new kid and I wanted to come too!" she says, her mind already made up.

"Oh alright. come along then." I say, slightly dissapointed with the reason she was hanging out with me at the moment. Thoughts stacking up in my head.

Shes only here to meet the new kid.

Does she even know how I feel about her?

I wonder what the new kids like..

I wonder... If hes.. Gay?

or at least bisexual.

wait wHAT AM I THINKING?!?!?!

Fionna punches me in the arm, knocking me from my thoughts, 

"Hey dude, I just got called to the office, for getting into a fight this morning, so ive gotta go. See you later!"  Before i can react shes already gone, leaving me to walk the hallway with nothing but my thoughts a black envelope.

                                                                                                                                         ********* 

Finally making it to the track I see fellow students running, one standing out particularly among the rest. 

I had never seen him before, he has pale grey skin, and black hair, but thats all I can make out from the distance.

Looking closer I realize hes running with an umbrella. 

I rest my mind on the fact hes the new kid and jog over to him. He stops running when he rounds the corner seeing me, and runs in place with his umbrella over his head, waiting for me to make my way to him.

"Hello, your name is Marshall Lee, correct?" I ask, slightly out of breath from the jog.

He smirks and floats up into a hover to rest his legs, pulling them up and sitting cross legged as he speaks, "Yep, thats me. Who might you be?" 

"Im Gumball, but you can call me Prince gumball." I say, he seemed to find me funny because he chuckled, "Your a prince eh'? " 

"Of the student counsil. Yes." I say, quite proud of my rank.

He just laughs, "Your quite proud of that arent you?" 

I feel my face flush in annoyance, "Why yes actually i am. I worked very hard to get to where I am today. I have the highest ranking authority in this school. Thats something to be proud of!"

He just nods, flipping hiself upside down letting his long black hair droop towards the ground,  "Yeah Gumwad. Well Id hate to burst your bubble but im a king. So I out rank you." 

I can feel his pleasure with these words, as he drifts closer to me, turning rightside back up, taking my chin in his index finger and thumb, pulling our faces till their inches apart, "But even for a low class Prince Gumwad.. you are cute." 

My face goes from its normal light pink, to crimson red, I quickly pull away from him, covering my mouth with my hands in surprise.

He just grins, and directs his attention to the envolope in my hand.

"Oh right. I was asked to give this to you." I say, holding it out to him. He reaches out taking it from me, turning it in his hand before sighing and opening it, letting his eyes scan the letter before his face went even paler, whispering a quick "Oh shit..." under his breath before turning to go.

"Ive.. gotta g-" before he could finish a woman had him in a tight grasped hug, squeesing him tightly.

"Ohhhhh my baby~ My, My, Marshal how youve grown!" she yells, still crushing him as he goes limp no longer fighting the hug.

Muffled words can be heard where hes being squished against her chest, not able to hear she pulls out of the hug, "What now dear, I couldnt understand you."

"Hi mom. Its nice to see you too. If you wouldnt mind, letting me go. Its a little hard to breathe"
