Confessions

.::Gumballs POV::.

"Hey Fionna!" I yelled running down the hallway after the golden curls.

She turned and stopped pulling me to the side "Yeah what's up?" She asked. "We need to talk. Alone." I grabbed her hand making her blush and pulled her into an empty class room.

"What happened between you and Marshall?" I said blankly. "What do you mean?.." She asked heasitantly.

I stared her down, "I mean once he saw you he freaked out and ran. I chased him down and he mentioned not being forgiven. Now what happened Fionna." I said rather cross.

She gulped and sat down me along with her.

"Well you see.. Once upon a time me and Marshall dated for several years.. But one day something.. happened.." She said

I stared at her and laied a hand on hers "You can tell me." I said

She nodded and took a deep breath, "W-Well.. We went on a picnic one day.. Me him and Cake, my best friend. And well.. He wanted to play hide and seek.. So we went into this forest... And while we were there Cake was-" she then broke into tears her words broken and hushed.

"W-we heard her s-scream.. And w-when M-Marshall found her.. S-she was m-mauled.. T-torn to b-bits.." She sobbed hiding her face in her hands .

I gasped pulling her into a hug. "Fionna.. I'm so sorry.. But what about

Marshall being a part of it..?" I asked

"H-he was her partner.. He was responsible for watching her.. She was only thirteen.. H-he l-let her go by herself.. H-hes responsible.." She cried.

I sighed keeping her close "There's a bathroom over there. Go clean up and go to class I'll write a note explaining you were helping me with something. I'm going to speak with Marshall."

She nodded getting up and shuffling away.

I stormed down the hallway and into Marshalls current class. He looked up at me along with every student and his teacher Mrs. Marygold.

"Oh Gumball. Do you need Anthony again? Anth-" I held up my hand cutting her off "No Mrs. M. I need Marshall Lee."

Her eyes widened along with his. "You need.. Mr. Lee?" She gulped.

I nodded. "Yes." I bent my finger in his direction cueing him to come. "C'mon. And bring your stuff." I said holding the door open as he walked out holding his bag and a pencil stuck behind his ear. His hair gelled back and slick with a band keeping the strays back.

"What's up gumwad?" he said. I sighed walking down the hallway. "Fionna told me everything. Now I want your side of the story. Now."
