Gumball inhaled deeply as he waited for his crush Fiona to open the door. He had hoped the day would of started out better...I mean he was a total mess! He didn't even want to think about his walk home later, Gumball would of had Lord Monochromicorn fly him to Fionas house but he was a man and men had to be brave. As Gumball lifted his powder pink scarf over his flushed, cold, and sensitive nose a spunky blonde haired girl answered the door with a grin. "Oh hey dude you're finally here! I was wondering when you were going to get ove- Holy cow! What happened to you?" The pink boy flushed with widened eyes as he took notice once more of his horrible state I mean honestly how could today be such a screw up? "I had a bit of an accident in the woods today or so you could say...ehe" Bubba smiled sheepishly before Fionna grasped onto his coat and tugged him inside with surprizingly strong force causing him to drop his bag in the entry way. "Augh! My Fionna really your strength..is most impressive." Gumball blinked as he watched Fionna smile up at him and begin to unbotton his coat. Gumball couldnt help but blush as he watched her fingers fumble around the colorful coat buttons, him unconsciously sniffing at her hat ears as it papped his face from her focusing on the coat. It was all so real! His frail body suddenly stiffened. He had to hold back all he had in him from doing what was absolutely wrong! He was a teen okay? A healthy teenage "boy" with hormones and it was way more sensual than it should of been in his mind. From what felt like hours were quick seconds in reality and he finally snapped back to the real world to see a very confused and uncomfortable blonde girl looking at him with a raised brow. "Uhh? You okay there buddy? You're acting a little funny, are you sick or something?" Gumball responded quicker than he probably should have by nodding furiously and was then pulled into her cozy little living room where Fionna had pushed him back onto the couch before throwing a poorly hand knitted blanket over him. "Now you just rest here for a second okay? I'll make some tea." Gumball sat there in a clearly uncomfortable ball on the couch as he nodded with a smile, his delicate fingers fumbling over the blanket as he tugged it tightly to his chest in a little cocoon type shape. He always loved going over to Fionnas house, he thought she was amazing with her mathematical hero yet nurturing skills. It wasnt long before Fionna came back with two cups of tea in her hand and a smile on her face that brought Gumball to his knees. "Here you go dude, jeez you must be cold considering how red you are" Gumball only chuckled as he rubbed the back of his head and took the cup of tea into his free hand. "Ah- O-Oh yeah! I brought snacks!" Gumball jumped up before clumsily walking over to the entry way once more, taking the knitted blanket with him as he lifted his backpack up with a strained huff. Really...the backpack was a little heavier than he remembered but never mind that. He was actually pretty worried about the food and all. It did have a pretty rough fall. As he made his back over to the couch, he quickly plopped down onto it before turtling his sock covered feet under the blanket for warmth. "I don't really know how good they are considering the fall they had but maybe they survived." the gumwad smiled unsurely as he lifted the backpack up in his lap, his eyes occasionally darting over to the girl that was waiting for him to hurry up and unzip the darn thing. As gumball was unzipping the bag a small black animal let out a wicked hiss before bolting right out of the bag like its life depended on it, causing Fionna to scream and Gumball to let out a shriek and throw the bag for the second time today behind the old tattered couch. "Oh my glob...Oh my glob Fionna! What was that...?" Gumball whispered to the girl from under the blanket they were now both hiding underneath of. "I don't really know, but whatever it was it wasn't that big" Fionna looked over at the prince trying to ease his mind but only making the hair on his neck stand on end. "W-Well...I think you should probably go have a look then." Bubba sheepishly gulped with shame as he shifted his eyes away towards one of the holes in the blanket. "Huh!? No way dude! We rock-paper-scissors on this." Fionna huffed with folded arms as she furrowed her brows over at the wimpy prince in annoyance. Gumball knew how uncool he was acting towards her but really he was beyond creeped out and Fionna wasn't scared of anything! "I suppose that sounds fair then.." Gumball gulped in a very regretful agreement in which he lost.."Of course..." Bubba growled underneath of his foggy breath as his frail fingers clutched onto his shirt and he shakily stood up. Of course he'd lose, what was he thinking?? This was Fionna here, even if she lost, Bubba would still probably end up by going. Gumball hunched his back over in fear as if it would somehow protect him as he ever so quietly began to tip toe to the side of the couch, his bright pink eyes darting over to the broom hiding in the corner by his left shoulder. He glanced nervously back over at Fionna who sat there huddled underneath of the blanket with only her head and hand sticking out to motion for him to shoo and hurry up before the thing moved again. Gumball puffed out his chest as he nodded at her, his back straightening and his small hands clenching into bony fists. He had to look brave in front of Fionna, he knew that would impress her. He picked up the broom and inched closer to the bag before poking it with the stick of the broom, him sighing in relief as he watched it sit still until heard faint scuttles coming from underneath of the couch, causing Gumball to yelp and cup a hand over his mouth. This was the absolute worst! This was the day he was supposed to impress the love of his life but he'll probably end up pissing his pants in front of her instead. Kneading his plump lip with worry between his teeth and scrunching his eyes shut, he got down on his hands and knees, and hesitantly laid his head on the ground so he could see underneath of the couch. "Okay gumball..you can do this. You can do this..you can do this" Gumball repeated to himself in his head as he slowly opened his bright pink eyes, his heart nearly stopping as he was greeted with ruby red eyes staring back at him. "Ah...a-...Aaah!!" the pink teen shrieked, causing the animal to pounce on his face and dig its small nails into the sides of his cheeks to hang on. "F-Fiona!! Help me!" he jumped and fell onto his back in fear, Fionna hearing his cries, quickly grabbed her sword and hopped over the couch, letting out a battlecry before stopping in her tracks and looking down at him with raised brows. "Ah...Gumball?" she tried to contain her laughter before gently picking the bat off of his face and setting it on her tree trunk coffee table. "Well look at what we have here" she smirked and looked down at the bat with crossed arms while Bubba continued to lay there in shock behind the couch. "Just a...bat?" the pink haired boy blinked and sat up as he rubbed his cheek and hesitantly peeped his head over the couch, only to meet eyes with those same ruby orbs. "Hrmph..." Bubba glared at the bat and crawled back onto the couch next to Fionna, running his hands through his pink and fluffy fringe with frustration. "Y-You have some nerve you know? Clawing my face like that, who do you think you are?" Fionna blinked her bright blue eyes at Gumball before playfully slugging him in the shoulder with a grin. "Come on now Gumball, it was probably an accident. You probably scared the little guy." She faintly smiled up at gumball, watching his face slightly soften as he looked back at her. "Well...I guess that may be true Fionna"Gumball tucked his knees in towards his chest as he focused on the bat that was staring back at him with a blank expression. It was weird...some of the expressions this animal made were almost human, which made this thing ten times more creepy than it already was for Gumball. "Uah.." Gumball breathed out and fixed his eyes on the bat's wing that was faintly twitching and bent out of shape. "I-I think you're right Fionna, i think it may be hurt." Gumball bit his lip and hesitantly reached a frail hand out towards the wounded bat who only glared at him back. "It's uh..it's okay buddy, I'm not gonna hurt you..promise." the pink toned boy gave the bat a nervous smile before slowly bringing his index finger in and ever so lightly brushing it against the bat's wing, only to have the bat screech and hop away two steps on the tree trunk coffee table. "Gumball!" the blonde girl hissed and slapped Bubba's hand away, causing Bubba to let out a sharp breath of air and bring his hand to his chest, a confused expression splaying on his face as he looked at Fionna. "W-What did I do? I was just trying to help." Gumball didn't really like this side of Fionna...she just hit him and not like she always did when she'd playfully do it. He didn't know she was so serious about this, or that she'd show such an aggressive side towards him. Fionna just stared back at him with furrowed brows of frustration in response before clearing her throat and running a hand through her long hair. "Ahem-..sorry about that, will you just go get the cantaloupe from the fridge?" She gave him a faint smile. Gumball just stared at her in disbelief, his eyes becoming puffy with irritation as he gulped thickly and shifted his eyes away, before slightly nodding his head and letting out a quiet. "..Mhm." He didn't know she could be so bossy towards him...it's not like he meant to hurt the bat. Quietly he stood up and walked the furthest away from the coffee table as he could as he made his way over into the kitchen. He was starting to wish he hadn't even come today...he didn't want to see this side of Fionna, and that bat was ruining everything he had romantically planned for today. With a grumble, Gumball took the sliced cantaloupe out of the fridge and quickly made his way back over to the coffee table, a guilty Fionna looking up at him with a slight smile. "Er..thank you Gumball." Quickly, she took the cantaloupe from Gumball's hands and placed it in her lap, causing Gumball to bite his inner cheek and sit down next to her with folded arms. '' C'mere little fella, it's good." She smiled down at the bat who looked up at her with skeptical eyes as the blonde haired girl brought a sliced piece of cantaloupe closer to it. The bat just gave it one quick sniff before furrowing its furry brows and turning its head away with frustration. "Aw man.." Fionna clicked underneath of her tongue, Gumball's head perking as he hesitantly turned his head to look at what Fionna was upset about, a faint smile growing on hisblushed face as he saw she was having some trouble with feeding the little critter. "May I try, Fionna?" Gumball slightly leaned closer towards her, a light blush filling his face as she made eye contact with him and puffed out her cheeks in thought."Well...alright, but I don't think it'll change anything." Happily, Gumball took a piece of cantaloupe, a nervous smile forming on his face as his eyes met with bright red ones, but Gumball wasn't going to let that faze him. Gumball let out a shaky sigh as he brought his bony hand in closer, nervously scooting the fruit further up his fingers to somehow ease the bats mind. The bat gently inched closer to Bubba's hand, causing Gumball to let out a light gasp of excitement. Hearing the gasp, the bat glared its piercing red eyes up at him in annoyance, causing Gumball to stiffen in place, his bright pink orbs widening in shock. "That face just now...you saw it too right Fionna?" Fionna just raised a brow and snorted. "you're worrying too much, it's just an animal, see? It seems to like you. Likes you better than me." she let out a sigh of ease and slouched into the chair as she continued to watch them. Gumball has no idea how she could be so calm in such a situation, gumball was on complete edge, his body felt frozen in place as the bat inched its way up to gumball's fingers, its wet nose gently nudging against gumballs shivering hand as it smelled at his fruit drenched fingers. Quickly, the bat opened its mouth to take a bite, but what it sank its little teeth into was not the fruit...no, it was Gumball's thumb. Gumball was completely frozen, his heart rate out of control as he let out a high pitched whine, only to have it muffled by Fionna's sweaty hand. "Shhh..look, it's eating." Fionna whispered hotly against his ear. This was all too real...Gumball felt completely dizzy as the light sucking of "blood" continued to shoot out of his thumb and into the bats mouth. But he was also filled with the hot sensation burning inside the pit of his stomach as Fionna's hot breath steamed against the shell of his ear as she continued to talk and cheer him on in playful whispers. But regardless the pain wasn't worth it and he at the moment was questioning his feelings for the girl... Gumball's hot pink eyes widened with tears as he felt the fangs begin to penetrate into his other finger,him quickly panicking and shaking his head before quickly ripping her hand off of his drool covered lips to try and let out another cry of pain. "Ahhn..!! *hic* S-Stop it, please! I beg you!" the bats eyes widened as it viewed the frail prince infront of him break down, his pink cheeks glowing a deeper red as tears began to role down them, and his beautiful eyes and face scrunching in pain as his body began to tremble. Abruptly,the bat almost gently slides its fangs out of his index finger and giving it a gentle kitten lick to clean up the excess blood that may have oozed out, causing gumball to bring the abused hand to his chest and huddle into a ball on the couch. Fionna just stared at him in utter shock. "Ah...Gumball..?M'really sorry, honest." she leaned in to lightly shake his shoulder, only to have him immediately sit up with a frown formed on his baby like face, his puffy bottom lip quivering with anger and pain. He looked like a kid having a fit in all honesty...Bubba's adorable features just couldn't be taken seriously no matter what state he was in. "Well..what should we do with it?" Fionna looked over at Gumball who only sniffled and rubbed his reddened pink eyes with his sleeve as he looked over at her in confusion."The bat doesn't like the taste of me, and it refuses to eat." she continued. "and it's injured...I don't think it'll make it." she sighed with a frown as she glanced at Gumball through the corner of her eye, waiting for a reply. "...I'm gonna take it home." Gumball muttered, wiping the left over tears from his cheeks as he stood up and slipped on his raincoat. "Wait what? But you're terrified of that thing!" Fionna let out a chuckle of disbelief as she watched Gumball finish buttoning up his dorky raincoat and slipping on his shoes before walking over to the bat who sat there on the coffee table expectantly. The pink boy just glanced at Fionna as he grabbed his scarf and carefully began to wrap the protesting bat into it before tucking it securely in the front of raincoat pocket. He could swear the bat was glaring at him now..letting out a shaky giggle, gumball shook his head and walked to her front door before picking up his bag and giving her a heroic smile, before quickly letting himself out the front door. "It'll be fun, I never had a pet before. It'll just take some time to make the thing like me, but I am a Prince and we must do what may frighten us at times. Well..I'll see you later Fionna!" Happily, the bubblegum boy ran off of her front porch as he began to make his way towards the dark forest, the faint inaudible shouts of Fionna fading into the background as he focused on the dim light at the end of the forests brush. It was already 10PM...just how long was he gone? Gumball thought as kneaded a worried lip between his teeth. He was far too confused with his feelings towards Fionna to be scared of anything at this point. The only thing that kept him feeling safe in that moment was sadly the bat in his front pocket. If that thing scared the gumdrops out of Gumball, it would no doubt do the same thing to anything else in these woods. Why Gumball even decided to take this thing home in the first place...he honestly doesn't have an answer for that. He couldn't allow anything to die by his hands, so as soon as Fionna said it only liked his blood, that is when he knew he had to take care of this thing until it was better. He'd show Fionna, he'd show her that he was a man capable of taking care of something she couldn't. As he made his way through the quiet night of the candy kingdom, and walked towards the front door of his castle, the silence gave him time to think and that's when he felt his blood run cold and anxiety start to flow from within him...just how did he plan to take care of such a thing?

And that's when he knew, Oh Glob did he not think this through..
