Author's Note: Hey Guys! If you have written me a request they got lost in a flood of reviews. In the future, if you're doing a request -please- message me instead of writing it in the review. I have completely lost track of them and honestly I'm to lazy to syphon through all the reviews. So make it again or make a new one by MESSAGING me. :) Thanks~ -N.S.

This is a story for my friend bubblineandpandas. Love you, A -M.

Bubblegum, Finn, Jake, and Marceline stood on the back porch of Marcy's house. The wood boards creaked under their sneakers and a small crowd had showed up for the upcoming game. Ice King, a few candy people, and BMO rested on the edge of Marcy's porch. Peppermint Butler was set to be the referee and BMO was to keep score. On a long pole, nailed a flimsy basketball hoop.

Finn cracked his knuckles, making Bubblegum cringe. Marceline smirked a toothy grin as she spun an orange basketball on the tip of her pale finger. Marceline wore a thin jersey with doubles zeros on the front and the title 'The Queen' on the back. She also had her black hair pulled back in a tight ponytail and a red head band prevented any loose strands falling into her face.

There was no wagers or stakes to this game. It was simply winner got to win and Marceline was determined to win. Bonnie wore a small pink jersey with a cupcake printed on the front. Her gummy hair was twirled back in a bun. Finn and Jake had on their normal attire minus the headbands plastered to their foreheads.

"Ready to lose, man?" Finn teased, getting into Jake's face. He scrunched up his face.

"Watcha talkin about? I'm gonna win." Jake said, confidently. Bubblegum sighed. She only agreed to play because it was held at Marceline's house. She knew the chances of her even catching the basketball was 16 percent. She just wasn't athletic.

"So me and Finn against Jake and Bonnie then?" Marceline asked, the ball resting in her hand.

"Ya unless you're to afraid Jake." Finn teased standing next to Marcy.

"Never!" Jake shouted, stretching out his body.

Marceline passed the ball to Finn. The game had begun.

An hour passed by easy and Pb was merged in sweat. The score was 36 for team Human Queen and 13 for team Princess Jake. Marceline was a machine at basketball she blocked, shot, and dunked the entire time. Everytime, Marcy scored Ice King gave a large boo from the bench. Bubblegum bended over breathless. She tried many different strategies but every time they were fruitless against Marcy.

Marceline gave a smirk, only a light layer of sweat covered her face. Finn was energetic and pumping up his fists while Jake just huffed angrily.

"Want a break, Pb?" Finn asked, seeing Bubblegum bent over. She nodded weakly and Jake narrowed his eyes. He walked over to the crowd and sat down his arms crossed. With the help of Finn, Bubblegum sat down next to Peppermint Butler.

"Here Princess Bubblegum." Peppermint Butler said, offering a bottle of water. She took the bottle and gulped down a swig. She looked up and saw the basketball sitting alone in the middle of the court.

She looked further up and saw Marceline by a gray duffel bag. She was intensly watching Marceline. Marcy bent over and picked up her water bottle and a white towel. She poured the water onto her face trying to cool off. Pb gawked as the water slid down Marcy's skin into regions Bubblegum wished to feel. Pb felt heat surge in her stomach.

No no no! That's inappropriate! Bubblegum thought shaking her head. She forced her eyes to look away. Bubblegum regained her breath and took a couple more swigs of water.

"Hey you ok Bonnie?" Marcelines voice ringed in Pb's ears. Bubblegum snapped her head forward. Marceline's face was only inches from Bonnie's. Bubblegum felt a blush creep on her cheek as she backed up a little.

"W-what?" Bubblegum stuttered out, still shocked from Marceline being so close. Marceline brought her hand up and pressed it against Bubblegum's forehead. Pb felt Marceline's cold hand moved away as fast as it had come.

"Your face is really red. I thought you were sick." Marceline said, The white towel hanging around her neck.

"No I'm fine." Bubblegum said, giving a weak smile.

"You ok to keep playing?" Marceline asked, standing back up.

"..Ya." Bubblegum said, reassuringly. Marceline held out her gray hand to help the princess up. Bubblegum took her hand as Marceline pulled her back up.

Marceline gave a smile and patted her shoulder.

"Come on you got a game to lose." Marceline teased and walked back out onto the court.

Chp 2 coming up soon :)
