-Gumball's POV-
How did I get myself into this mess? Why in the whole wide world did something like this happen to me? Here I am, being forced to date somebody I don't even like against my will; and I'm completely helpless to fight her will. Normally I would tell her to piss off, but Masami is persistent. And now, my mother's very job is at stake if I don't comply. But I feel like I'm getting ahead of myself.
Allow me to take you back to how this all started. The day started out like any other day. I woke up from my relaxing sleep, feeling as confident as ever. I had a feeling that things were going to finally turn out my way for once, that I was finally going to be the master of my own destiny. But those hopes were quickly destroyed when I remembered that I had to go to school that day. So you know, it felt just like an average Friday for me.
After reluctantly taking a shower, brushing my teeth, and helping myself to a bowl of Daisy the Donkey brand cereal, I stepped onto the bus and sat in my usual spot; listening to the sounds of my classmates causing absolute havoc for God knows what reason.
When we finally arrived at school, I stepped off of the bus and began to remorsefully drag myself into the hallways of the school. I walked over towards my locker, pulling out my textbooks and papers to get ready for my first class of the day; when all of a sudden, I was unexpectedly approached by none other than Masami.
"Hello, new boyfriend." She said in a sweet and demure voice. I was naturally confused as to what she had just said. I turned to face her eye to eye and said in a confused tone, "Uh, what are you talking about? I'm not your boyfriend."
"Oh don't be so coy, Gumball." She continued in that flirty voice of hers. "Besides, I really do like you. So what's to stop me from wanting you to be my boyfriend?"
"Um, how about the fact that I DON'T want to be your boyfriend?" I replied, staring to become really irritated with her. I thought that she would just go away at that point, but she just stood there in silence. I didn't know what she was thinking at the time, until a sadistic smile came across her face.
"Oh, I was hoping you'd say something like that." She replied in a sly tone; making me cringe with fear. I looked up and asked her in a confused and scared tone, "What…what are you talking about?"
She chuckled softly to herself and said, "Oh nothing, really. I'll just have you know that my daddy happens to be your mom's boss at the Rainbow Factory. And since I'm 'daddy's little princess', I can get him to fire your mother if you so much as try to refuse my offer."
I stood there in complete shock. I couldn't believe that she would actually stoop that low to do that. "You're not serious, are you?" I asked in an angry tone.
"Go ahead; try me." She said, trying to provoke me into giving in. "Deny my offer; make me cry; see what happens."
I stood there in absolute silence, thinking to myself about what I should do. I know that I shouldn't let her be able to take control of me like this, but on the other hand I know her type. She's the type of person who'll do whatever it takes to get what they want. And she was the most persistent of the bunch. I couldn't tell if she was being serious, or if she was trying to scare me into being her boyfriend; but all I knew was that I didn't want to take any chances.
With a reluctant sigh, I hung my head in shame and said, "All right. I'll be your…boyfriend" I said, cringing in disgust at the very idea.
She gave another sadistic smile and said in a playful voice, "Yay! You finally came around! Come on, boyfriend. We're going to be late for class." We started walking towards class, when all of a sudden she turned around and in a demanding voice she said, "Oh, and carry my books!" I stood there and forcefully put my hands out to carry her massive text books; unable to fight off the strength of her will. 'This is it.' I thought to myself. 'It's all over. She's won.' I walked to class standing right by her side; feeling a sense of defeat that I had never felt in my life before.
