Perfect
"She's got rose-colored skin, beautiful pink hair, and her sweet scent of bubblegum intoxicates me."
Princess Bubblegum has to prove to Marceline she's not perfect...or prove Marceline is. Cute sugarless gum. No flames.
It was a fairly normal day in the big village of Ooo. Well, it was. Until Princess Bubblegum decided she needed to prove something to Marceline.
She slams open the door, which made her cringe. (It was against her polite and caring nature) She told herself to suck it up. She walked in on Marceline, recording a song. She heard a few words.
"Maybe I want to be your friend
Maybe I'd like to be something more
Maybe you could hold my hand
This may be
Just a dream oh"
Marceline immediately stopped when she noticed Bubblegum.
"Hey, what's up?" she said, turning off her recording machine. "I need to tell you," the pink princess began, "That-that-" "Spit it out!" Marceline said. "I'm not perfect!"
Marceline just stared at her for a second, then laughed. "Hahahaha! Nice one, Bonni!" she said, laughing hard.
Princess Bubblegum's POV
I could feel my face getting hot, and inferred that I was blushing. "I'm not joking!" I said, over the noise of her cute laughter. Wait, what? Why did I say cute?
I shook my head. I'm going crazy. "You're cute when you're mad!" Marceline giggled. My face got hotter every second.
"I wish I was you!" I screamed. "Not having a care in the world, writing songs about your perfect life!" Marceline stopped giggling. "What do you mean, perfect?" Marceline asked.
"You don't have to worry about the safety of the candy people, or fighting the Lich!" "Finn does all of that! You just eat your lazy bum off and let him do all the work!"
"I DO NOT!" I screamed. Marceline and I calmed down a bit. After a few minutes, Marceline finally quietly said, "Sorry, Bonni."
Marceline's POV
For a moment, I stared at her, taking it all in. She's got rose-colored skin, beautiful pink hair, and her sweet scent of bubblegum intoxicates me. She's the cover model of perfection. The complete essence of beauty. The girl I want to be.
The girl I'm in love with.
Thank god she didn't realize that the song I was singing was about her. But we'll never be together. We're not even friends yet. Well, not if I do something about it.
Princess Bubblegum's POV
How do I feel about Marceline? Hmm, it's kinda hard to explain. She's really tough and mean sometimes. But she is really nice on the inside. She's been through a lot of pain in her life. She's just afraid to come out of her shell.
She has a bad attitude, messy, long black hair, and pale skin.
I wonder why I love her.
I wonder what she thinks of me. Maybe I should just tell her, and see how she reacts.
I take a deep breath and say it.
I realized we've said "I love you" at the same time.
Epilogue
Me and Marceline are a good couple. We have been together for three years now. Not a lot of people approve of us. But hey,
Nobody's perfect.
