Just a Bit Sweeter

Speaking for the Public (Pt. 2)

The doors opened with a loud creak, and light shone into the room Gumball was standing in. Marshall smiled, ducking into the darkness. The candy people quieted down, and the protesters raised their signs. "Hello, citizens." The prince spoke, loud and clear. "Thank you all for coming today to witness the birth of a new beginning." He walked over to the podium and felt its edges. "Marriage. One of the seven sacraments. It symbolizes love and eternity as one, coming together with your partner for the rest of your life. Bound by law." His voice boomed around the castle halls, Marshall could hear it inside. "No matter the sexual orientation, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, pansexual, and so on... You should be able to marry the person you love." Gumball looked across the crowd, the sun shining bright. He knew Marshall couldn't be there to watch, but he felt his support in his heart, helping him to speak clearly. "I am in love with a man, and I won't let our shared gender get in the way of our undying love." He kept his expression serious, but the memories of Marshall ran through his head and made his heart beat faster. The way their bodies fit together so perfectly, how their lips connect in such harmony... "Which is why, as of today, same-sex marriage will be legal." He said, and let a small smile play out on his lips. People sitting in front of him grew bright, clapping their hands in respect. There was a stack of papers on the table, waiting to be signed by the prince. Gumball stood up, tall, and walked gracefully over to where the pen sat. He was the one who could change how his people thought and did, though some could never change. I can marry Marshall and live with him... he thought, picking up the pen. Gumball faced the crowd, scanning every joyous face before the ink touched the paper and he signed his name. Prince Bubba Gumball, and dot the i... He smiled widely as he stood up. "Same sex marriage is now legal in the Candy Kingdom!" He said, raising his arms. The crowd jumped up, cheering. Some even kissed, which made him so happy. "Hey, dork.." He heard Marshall mumble before he wrapped his gloved arms around him. "You did it." He said said as Gumball tilted the hat, providing shade for him, upwards so he could press his plump pink lips to his. At that point, when their lips connected, the protesters gave up and left with their signs. There was officially nothing stopping them now.

I love him so much... Marshall thought as he locked lips with his prince. I don't care if the sun took me  now, I'd die happy. His arms went around his waist as the cheers continued, and slowly everyone calmed down. Gumball separated from the lingering kiss to raise his arms an command. "Go, my people! Find the one you are meant to be with, no matter the gender!" Marshall took his hand, and brought him inside with a wide smile. "They've had enough of you, it's my turn." He said, rather childish, as he wrapped up his prince in a big bear hug. "I'm so proud of you, Bubba..." The king mumbled, kissing his ear. He blushed, closing his eyes. "Thank you... Marshall..." The vampire was now gently nibbling on his ear, leaning him on the door. "What are you doing..." The prince asked, shifting. "Glob... nn... Marshall, they're right outside..." The vampire pulled his head back. "I'm sorry, Gumball... I'm just... it's been a while..." He said, looking into his eyes. Gumball's eyebrows lowered and he looked down, thinking about how much Marshall wanted him at that very moment. But his cold fingers lifted his chin so he could look at him again. "You don't have to do anything for me. I get that you're too sore for sex, I understand." Gumball nodded, and he kissed him for a moment. "But... I'm not too sore for you to do a bit of feasting..." He mumbled against his lips, looking at him with a lustful gaze. Fuck, he's so sexy... but... how the hell does he act so cute when he asks for head.. Marshall thought, smirking as he moved down his body. His cold lips grazed his stomach as he slowly lifted his shirt. Gumball bit his lip as he leaned back, closing his eyes at the pleasant feeling...

"Gumball, my dear, do unlock the door!" Pepper called into the room, knocking. Marshall parted, standing up with an unamused groan. Gumball looked at him wtih an upset frown, obviously disapointed. "Go..." Marshall said, nodding to the door. Utterly and completely candy cock blocked. Gumball glanced at the door, then to him, and crashed their lips together in a passionate way. Marshall was quite surprised by the sudden action, but returned the kiss anyways. "Gumball, come out this instant!" Pepper repeated, knocking harder. Parting from the messy connection, the prince mumbled "Later..." and turned to exit, leaving a quite impressed king behind.

"What is it Pepper, I'm busy..." Gumball asked, closing the door behind him. "Well sir, aren't you going to socialize with the residents? Some are simply dying to speak with you." The prince stood up straight, nodding. "Oh, right, may Marshall come?" He asked, glancing at the door. "Yes, I suppose." Pepper said with a nod, turning to leave. "Do come out." Gumball nodded, opening the door. Marshall glanced at him, grinning now. "No, dumbass, we're going to talk to my people." He said, furrowing his eyebrows. "You're torturing me..." The vampire groaned, moaping over to the door. "Yeah yeah, love you too, idiot." Gumball smirked, and gave him a kiss.
