Loving you is a good problem to have ~ bubbline

~chapter six~ texting

(Marceline's P.O.V)

7:56pm
I sat on one of the stools at the kitchen counter after cooking a quick meal. It didn't really satisfy my hunger but it'll do for now. 'I really need to teach myself how to cook' I chuckled to myself. I started scrolling mindlessly through my phone thinking about how good today felt. I felt pretty happy for once and that I might even have a friend! At the thought of the word 'friend' Bonnie seemed to have appeared in my mind. I smiled at the thought and decided to text her.

Marceline: hey :)

Bonnie: hey, what's up :p

Marceline: nothing really, I just wanted to thank you for today I had fun.

Bonnie: yeah I did as well. I'm just glad the school didn't end up ringing my dad to tell him about the 'stunt' we pulled today haha.

Marceline thought about the so called 'stunt' she pulled today. It wasn't like her to do something so rebellious. Was she maybe showing off? The sudden confidence did surprise her but it also felt good at the time.

Marceline: yeah I'm sorry about that, but I guess I couldn't resist.

Bonnie: don't worry about it, It was fun. I'm glad that I can consider you a friend :) t-that's if you want to be of course.

Marceline: yeah of course! Well I guess I'll see you at school tomorrow then :)

I end the conversation and smile to myself. I then head upstairs to my bedroom and change into a black tank top and black and red plaid shorts.

I sit on the edge of my bed and grab my bass and start plucking the strings creating a soft melody. I haven't played in a while I only just started playing again yesterday. I stopped playing years ago well ever since mum died anyway. My whole world turned around when she passed. I've definitely changed since then. Dad got a job most likely to distract himself after she died and ever since that, well his job caused us to move around a lot, town after town. It was so repetitive I kind of gave up a little, I gave up on trying. now I just tell myself 'what ever happens, happens.'

But Dad told me that this is our final stop, no more moving and honestly I was glad to hear it. That was two years ago so I guess it's permanent now.
And since I've met Bonnie I've started to feel hope and I think I'm ready to start trying again. I wanna be me again.

I sat my bass against the wall. I turned the lights off and crawled into bed 'it wouldn't hurt to go to bed early for once' I thought to myself as I closed my eyes.

A/N ~ it really has been a long time, sorry about that. A comment got me motivated to write a new chapter. I also decided to fix up my punctuation a bit in the previous chapters and I've also changed the cover and title :)
