"Rock Me To Sleep"
Marshall : POV
100 years. 100 years of my immortality spent alongside the most beautiful adventuress in Aaa. And now the long locks of flowing blonde hair have been cut short and turned grey. Her face has wrinkled under the weight of the universe over time, and her bold strides and bouncing step have turned to immobilized legs and wheel chair pushing. She lays here in the Candy Kingdom, everyone outside the hospital room other than Dr. Ice Cream, Prince Gumball, and of course, Cake. The painful looks on all their faces and the tears being held back in the magical cat's eyes were almost as heart breaking as the slowing of her breathing.
I was in the bed with her, holding on to her as she ventured into the darkness for the last time. It took everything I had to hold myself back; to make sure she didn't see my heartbreaking. But with every weary smile and every shudder her body offered, my own became more weak.
"I...love you...all.." she manages to say, smiling as tears flow quickly down her cheeks. I can't bare to see her this way. She's so afraid and I can't do anything this time.
"we love you too, Baby." Cake says, rushing over to Fionna and grabbing her hand. "I'll see you again soon, sweet cheeks. I promise."
Fionna nods, signalling that this was the last goodbye. Gumball forces a smile on his face to comfort her, and she smiles back. I kiss her head, and let her close her eyes for the last time.
3...2...1...
Nothing. Her body stops working, and she is just gone. I rock her in my arms and sing to her, as if she were still here. But she's not. And Cake is heart broken, and sobbing on the bedside. I let my sobs shake the lifeless woman and Gumball finally breaks. Dr. Ice Cream leaves to break the news to the entire land of Aaa that their beloved adventuress is now gone.
And I can not bare to feel this pain, but I do because I love her. I feel it because she mattered.
