Princess Bubblegum placed her hands upon the pale girl's back, giving it a good squeeze as the immortal continued to wrestle their tongues together playfully as they searched for dominance. The princess moaned in pleasure as she slid her leg against the other female that laid on top of her, causing Marceline to shiver slightly at the feel of her. "Marceline.." the princess allowed the vampire's name to slip out of her mouth, as she parted her lips to let out a soft moan. Marceline pulled away from Bubblegum, giving the sly smirk that she usually planted on her face. "I'm assuming that this is going to be an every night routine?" Marceline said with a smile, giving the princess a quick peck on the lips before laying on the other side of the bed as she brought her eyes up to gaze it's Bubblegum's. Princess Bubblegum brought her eyes up, only to find herself locking them with the vampire's. There was a long silence. None of them said a word to each other and the princess bit her lip in uncertainty, propping herself up. Marceline had been leaving her house lately to meet up with the pink princess. They usually would just have meaningless make outs, as Marceline would describe them, but to Bubblegum it was more than just a night's playful fun. Bubblegum sighed heavily, obviously disappointed at where their relationship status was currently at. The vampire looked up at her in concern as the pink girl let out a soft sigh. Marceline instantly knew something was up with her and couldn't let that tad of emotion slide past her. She sat upright on the bed as the princess had did, placing her hand on top of Bubblegum's and give it a gentle squeeze. It wasn't like Marceline to actually care about someone other than herself, but it was the manner she often had when it was just her and Bubblegum alone. "What's wrong?" she asked the princess, as her eyes stayed focus on the girl next to her. Bubblegum faked an assuring smile, shaking her head as if she was alright. "It's.. nothing, Marceline" she said, trying to persuade the vampire that she was fine the best way she could. Marceline raised her eyebrow curiously, crossing her arms against her chest. She wasn't satisfied with the princess's answer and wasn't going to let this one slide past her so easily. "C'mon, Bonnie. I've known you long enough to know when something's bothering you, so you can't fool me". It was true too. Marceline and Princess Bubblegum went way back. Childhood friends, for a fact. They never thought they'd ever end up being attracted to each other, both sexually and romantically.

Bubblegum dragged her feet over the edge of the bed and sat up, walking over to her opened window. She pretended to be interested in the stars that shined in the night sky, as her thought process soon drifted off somewhere deep. Right now, she was thinking about the problems that she wished she could just run away from. Marceline was a major one of them, but it wasn't as if she didn't want to be around the vampire queen. If she wanted to get away from the girl, then she would've put a stop to their nightly meetings. Princess Bubblegum couldn't help the way she felt around Marceline, but she knew that it was wrong since the feelings would never be returned back and they possibly could never have a stable relationship. Could they? Bubblegum was fond of Finn's crush on her and knew that he would be hurt if she was to ever get with someone else. "He's just a boy, ..but he's my friend. I care about him a lot.." she thought to herself quietly. "I.. I have feelings for Marceline, though" Bubblegum frowned deeply, letting another sigh slip out by accident. She had almost forgotten about the vampire's presence and figured that Marceline was wondering what was up with her. She had to give a reassuring answer to the vampire.

Marceline didn't allow the thoughts that were bubbling in the back of her mind to surface. She couldn't. The moment she allowed her subconscious to become her conscious, she would put two and two together. She would realize why she'd been acting even more bitchier recently, why she had been feeling jealous whenever she saw the princess with her human friend, why she'd been thinking so much about Princess Bubblegum. The thought had been in the back of her mind for ages. They had, in fact, been best friends for years. Princess Bubblegum was the only one who really knew her, and that made their bond intense. That alone, made everything terribly confusing. Ever since she packed her things and left Ooo for a year, they've had avoided a lot of situations. They never once spoke about their feelings and Marceline was the one that started their whole relationship, if she could even call it that. She called their physical attention between each other meaningless, but she it was just more than that to the both of them. She knew that she couldn't call this a no strings relationship at all, knowing that there were some possible feelings involved. Marceline couldn't handle the long silence between each other and ran hand through her long black hair, letting out a huff. "Bonnibel…" Marceline said, her usual careless monotone held a tad of emotion, a tad of realness in it. It was a tone only reserved for Bubblegum. So was the small smile she gave her every now and then.

Bubblegum turned around when she heard her name escape the vampire's lips, turning around to face her. She rubbed her shoulder nervously as she licked her dry lips, unsure of what was about to be said. She didn't want to hide her feelings anymore, though. "Marceline.. what are we?" she finally spoke up, knowing that she either made the worse mistake in her life or was doing something for the better. Marceline looked away, unsure of how to answer the princess. She has been trying to avoid this conversation for the longest, so she decided to play naive to what she was talking about. "What do you mean?" she asked, a hint of nervousness detected in her voice. Bubblegum turned around, narrowing her eyes slightly. "You know what I mean, Marceline. We can't keep playing these games.. meeting up, sharing kisses, and then leaving as if we don't know each other once the night is over with" the royal princess huffed in anger, letting her arms fall to her sides. It was already obvious that she wanted more of their relationship. Marceline rolled her eyes as she got up from the bed, levitating over to the princess so that she stood in front of her. "I'm not playing any games with you, Bonnie. What do you expect me from me? To take you on a nice dinner date and share a drink together?" she said in annoyance, wrapping an arm around the pink girl's waist. Marceline didn't mean to come off so rude, especially towards the Princess. She knew very well what upsets the princess and even though she found people's anger and sadness to her pleasure, she couldn't stand to see her favorite girl upset. Soon realizing the mistake she made, she holding the girl closing to her and rested her head in the crook of her neck. ''I'm sorry..'' she whispered in her ear, running a hand down her back before pulling away the face the princess's face. Marceline was unsure of how to read it. Bubblegum's face was a mixture of confusion, anger, and.. hurt. "I just want you to tell me what you feel about.. us, Marceline. Are we just nothing? I totally understand that you're doing this for satisfaction, but.. never mind'' she sighed once she realized that she was probably going nowhere with this conversation.

Marceline couldn't find the right words to say to the princess, because she knew that it wouldn't make the matter any better. She found it so hard to let the princess into her life and say that she felt the same way. Why? Because they could never have a happy ending. Bubblegum wouldn't stay in her life forever and would eventually pass away, leaving the vampire alone. Marceline couldn't risk getting involved with relationships and actual love, which is why she liked to keep to herself. It was a mistake getting involved with this kind of relationship with the princess, but knew that she couldn't take any of it back. The thought of it instantly made her depressed to the extinct where she had to be alone, but she didn't want to leave the princess hanging. ''Bonnibel.. I.. I'm sorry, but I can't'' the vampire said softly, turning away as she still levitated in the air. ''I think we both need some time to think about this'' was the next thing the vampire said, before the she started to float to the opened window. It was getting late for sure and the sun would soon rise at any second now. The princess was tired and needed some rest, although the night was still young for the vampire. Marceline didn't look back at the princess and flew out of the window, entering the night sky. Bubblegum watched her leave, a deep frown taking over her face. She plopped back down on the bed and let out a frustrated sigh, as she laid face down on a pillow. She had so many feelings bottled up inside, she could just scream. Instead, she let out a big yawn and closed her eyes. She allowed her thoughts to process some more about Marceline and her before she drifted off into a deep sleep.
