Forever Two (Pearlina Oneshots)

Chaos vs Order

Hi! I know this is a bit late but I wrote this while I was at camp, anyway I hope you enjoy one of the 2 chapters I wrote at camp!

Marina's POV

After the final Splatfest was announced..

"Marina?" Pearl tapped my shoulder trying to grab my attention, I didn't want to answer her. My gaze wasn't looking at anything particular just staring off into the distance of the studio. "Yo?" Pearl waved her hand in front of my face, "Anything? Rina, please answer me." She tried yet again to grab my attention and she did. I looked at Pearl, her golden eyes filled with sorrow as if she just lost her love.

"Do you think we're going to loose Off The Hook?" I finally said something searching Pearl's face for a reaction, she frowned.

After a little bit the inkling finally spoke, " We'd never loose Off The Hook, it means too much to us both." She quickly fixed her posture in her chair and leaned her elbows on the table.

"But what will happen to us? Will we still preform and announce? Will we still even be together an-"

"Of course we'll still be together! Off The Hook isn't everything-oh, I mean.." Pearl interrupted me regretting the last part. Her face drooped and watched as my face turned into a mad expression.

"Off The Hook means everything to me, I have no idea where I'd be without it. Maybe you don't seem to realize that." I scolded Pearl. How could she say that?!? She knows that without Off The Hook some random inkling would've probably killed me. I started twiddling my thumbs under the table.

"What about me?" Pearl started to defend herself, "You're acting like I'm not in Off The Hook, do you really not care more about me then our stupid duo? Maybe I should've just left you on the mountain.." She scolded back, muttering the last part hoping I didn't hear but I did.

"Pearl, you matter to me the most, I couldn't imagine living a single day without you. I'm so glad you didn't leave me when we met each other." I gave her a small smile but she wasn't buying it, of course she wasn't.

"So, why did you pick order?" Pearl asked trying to change the subject, I looked at her with an angry expression.

"Why did you pick chaos?" I retorted the question back and crossed my arms.

"Nevermind then." Pearl gave up on asking, the tension was so high between us both that I could probably cut it with a knife.

After taking a sigh I started to speak more calmly, " I just feel that after the splatfest thing are going to change." I stated not expecting Pearl to respond.(Oh little did she know they turned out for the better, hehe Pearlina is cannon now)

"Honestly, I do too." Pearl replied in a more worried tone, she wasn't looking in my direction.

"Hey Pearl?" I asked changing the subject, "What do you think is going to happen to us?" by this point my anxiety was starting to creep through me. What if Pearl was only with me because of Off The Hook? Will she still love me after the splatfest?

I watched as Pearl got out of her seat and walked over wrapping her short arms around me. "If you really think I'm gonna leave you, I'm not. I would would never leave my precious Rina. If worse comes to worse we can both get jobs at soobway to pay rent."

"Heh, it's more like you'd eat all the food instead of actually working." I teased wrapping my arms around Pearl to complete the hug and pulling her closer to me.

"Tch, that's why I got you to force me to work! Like you force me to do other things, hehe." Pearl smirked and gave me a peck on the lips giggling.

"Aww, your lips are always so soft." I smiled giving Pearl a happy expression but it soon turned into a solemn look. She's so skinny and I'm like super fat, actually... "Pearlie? Do I look...um..overweight? Wait, don't answer that. I know I do." I broke eye contact with Pearl and looked at myself.

"Mar, look back at me for a sec." She started holding my cheek with her hands, "You are not overweight, honesty, you're underweight. Even if you were I wouldn't even give a shit." Pearl slowly let go of my face and took of my headphones breaking the hug.

"What are you doing?" I questioned and watched as she fiddled with my headphones.

"I'm gonna whisper something in your beautiful ear." Pearl smiled and put her mouth closer to my ear to speak, "I love you so much and nothing can take that away from me. You give me something that no one else did. I love you my princess." Pearl whispered into my ear and moved away holding my headphones closer to her.

Pearl's never called me a princess before. I watched as she closed her eyes still keeping my headphones close to her. I pulled her in for a hug but it ended up spooking Pearl causing her to make a cute squeak noise. "Whatever happens to us, please don't leave me. You're my only reason to live. You're everything to me Pearlie." My eyes started to water, my face was buried into Pearl's shoulder. Pearl hugged me back burying her face into my chest.

"Heh, I'd only leave you if jellies fly! You keep me safe Rina, you're hugs are so warm and comfortable." Pearl tightened the hug with made a big smile form on my face.

I looked up from Pearl to the window of our studio to see inklings and octolings taking pictures and filming us. "Pearlie, look up." I broke the hug still looking out the big window.

Pearl lifted herself up and sat properly on my lap, I watched as she turned her head looking out the window and jumped out of my lap. "Fuck! Now this is gonna be everywhere." The small inkling quickly made her way back to her bean bag chair.

I giggled at Pearl's reaction, "It's not like we did anything, plus I love giving you hugs. But some people need to learn what a personal life is." I pouted crossing my arms.
