grumbo one shots {Request Open}

🍋lemon boy 🍋

Type: song fic + some sad
Song: lemon boy
Notes: I know the actual story of the song (I think) but this is a grumbo fanfic so I will be making things different. Also grian is lemon boy and Mumbo is the narrator (person singing), it's sad because of grian's backstory in this AU, it's permideath to be killed by yourself, a sickness, or by a human. And this one has 1603 words so it's longer than my other one shots but it is a song fic and I was really liking writing this.
Sorry if I didn't get the lyrics correct, it's been a week since I have listened to the song and I'm writing this offline so I can't check if the lyrics are correct or not.

Mumbo POV
🎵there once was a bittersweet man and they called him lemon boy~
He was growing in my garden so I pulled him out by the hair, like a weed~🎶

I was going to my garden when I seen someone sitting in my lemons so I pulled him out by the hair like a weed. "No weeds are allowed in my lemons lemon boy." I told him.

🎵but like weeds do he only came and grew back again,
So I decided this time I might as well let him be~🎶

It's been a day since I saw lemon boy and I have a sudden craving for lemon pie, but then I seen lemon boy sitting in my lemon garden again so I decided this time I might as well try to befriend him, he was scared of me and tried to hide, "don't worry, I won't hurt you, " I told him, "come inside, I'm making a a nice lemon pie." "O-okay." He replied, I lead him inside and asked why he was in my lemons, he replied saying that he is homeless, he found this place and thought it would be a good place to stay. "If you are homeless then instead of staying in my garden you can stay in my guest room." I offered. "Sure! Thanks so much!" He said. "My name is grian by the way." 'Grian' what a nice name, "so how did you end up like this?" I asked. "I've been homeless since I was 14, I told my parents that I'm gay and they kicked me out, being a minor and homeless was easier than now as a 26 year old, people thought I was able to take care of myself, but then I found your garden and stayed there for the past two days." Wow! He's been homeless for 12 years. "Oh," I said. "Why don't you have some of the lemon pie, it's ready and I don't know the last time you ate." "Okay, so what's your name? I don't know how long I will be staying here so I should know your name." "My name is Mumbo, Mumbo Jumbo." I replied. "And you can stay here for as long as you want."

🎶lemon boy and me started to along together,
I helped him plant his seeds and we mowed the lawn in bad weather~
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him,
so I got myself a citrus friend.
But as soon as bittersweet started to rub off on me~🎵

It's been 5 months since grian moved in, I started to grow feelings for him and he got a job as a architect, but every day he goes to work I get worried that he could get hurt but then again, I have my job as an redstone engineer to distract myself from grian. "Bye Mumbo!" Grian said as I locked the door to leave for work, "bye grian! See you after work!" I said as we walked away from each other, I got to work 15 minutes later because my home is 5 miles away and started talking to my friends iskall and doc, "you guys should come over to meet lemon boy!" I said, "okay, that's the homeless guy who's living with you?" Doc asked. "Yes, we're basically roommates but..." I trailed off but then iskall brought me back to reality "but what?" "I've started to grow a crush on him and I don't know how he feels about me..." I replied.

🎵you'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat,
But I soon found out my friends are more of the savory type,
And they weren't to keen on coming from miles for a nice lemon pie 🎶

Once they came to grian and I's place they met grian but they didn't really like or trust him, they would bully him and I would just watch, it wasn't until we were eating a lemon pie and they made him choke that they went too far, I stopped grian from choking then sent iskall and doc out of the house and told them to never come near me or grian EVER again, y'got it? They ran off and I hugged grian while asking if he was ok. He hugged back and said "please protect me" "of course grian, if anyone ever hurts you they will die!

🎶so lemon boy and me we just got to get along together,
I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mowed the lawn in bad weather,
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him,
So I got myself a citrus friend🎵

It was difficult at first, trying to work without someone to talk to, because I'm not very social and iskall and doc spread rumors about me so nobody wants to be my friend, however grian has made friends at his work and invited them to come over today after work
/\after work\/
Grian's friends came over, their names were scar and bdouble0(but most people call him bdubs), scar was in a wheelchair and grian and I were constantly checking to see if he was ok, and grian showed me some of the stuff bdubs built and he is the only person I have ever seen build with diorite! We had a lot of fun but after they left grian had a sneezing fit before collapsing, I called an ambulance and waited in the waiting room until I am allowed to see him.

🎵but what if I run out of fertilizer?
What clouds run out of rain?
What if lemon boy grows no longer?
What if beaches dry of sugarcane? Ohhh~
Whales will start to beach themselves,
Tortoise shells will leave their spines,
It happens all the time, it happens all the time~🎶

I was terrified, but then I was told that he was stable but still haven't opened his eyes. I walked in and my heart sunk, it broke me to tears to see him like this, I sat down next to the bed and begged him to wake up saying stuff like "please grian, please wake up, I never got to take you to the museum of architecture, I never got to kill everyone that ever hurt you, I never got to tell you that I love you."

🎶but lemon boy and me, we're gonna live forever,
I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mowed the lawn in bad weather,
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him,
'Cause we're the bitterest boys in town,
Yeah, we're the bitterest guys around,
So I got myself a citrus friend🎵

"M-mumbo?" I shot my head up after hearing grian's voice before hugging him. "Grian! I thought I lost you! Please, never, leave me." I told him. "I love you too Mumbo." I was shocked to hear him say that, "you, you heard that?" "Yes Mumby!" He answered before kissing me. The doctor came in and did some final tests and said that grian just fainted from dehydration and the sneezing fit was from dust, he said that we could leave whenever. I picked up grian bridal style and asked him if he'd be my boyfriend, he agreed and we now live together,are married, and have a child named Chatham1 (sorry, I just thought this was a great opportunity to annoy one person I'm scared of but I might change it if I remember the day I post it however I am tired and most likely will forget so sorry if you read this), and are still friends with scar and bdubs, and I made friends with three people, tango, Impulse, and their boyfriend zedaph, and the wedding was beautiful and tango made grian wear a dress and now he's addicted to wearing dresses.

This was a fun way to end and because I struggle with writing stuff that doesn't involve killing/almost killing someone so I tried to make it seem like grian would die, and it's late and I will be posting this on July 31(or August first because I can't remember) if I get the chance, and my family keeps saying that I look like Bethany from the animated Adams Family movie when she's a blonde and wears too much makeup and I'm a dirty blonde and wear little to none make up.

If you like writing too then I would suggest writing as much as possible until you get writers block

I know that my chapters have been all over the place but it's because I would write when I think of something so I don't forget the idea or if a chapter is longer. I'm sorry if that doesn't make sense
