A/N – This is my first fic here, an AU I've created a few nights ago, and had to just put it down into words. Now I might not be the best writer, and English is my 3rd language, but I'm doing my best and I hope you'll like it c:
Few notes:
-I'm going to do this mostly for myself, even though reviews are much appreciated; I'm still going to continue this even if I get a bad review.
-This is Human AU, and the characters are all around age of 16~17, which means, High school drama.
-This will be mostly about Marshall and his struggle in figuring his feelings toward Gale (Gumball), which means this, is Marshall/Gumball, but I'm willing to go for as far as to fluff.
-I will also be focusing on Fionna and her feelings, same goes for Fillip (Flame prince). It's not only about Marshall.
-Gumballs human name here is Gale.
-Flame Princes human name is Fillip.
Chapter 1 – Going to give you hell
Marshall was on his way to school, another normal, boring school day. He let out a sigh and pout, but before he could start his self-pity party on how his life is so hard, he smiled as he saw a person walking few meters away from him; it was Fionna, his friend.
"Hey Fionna!" a voice came from behind the girl and she let out a scream, turning around fast and holding her fists ready to punch someone. "Relax Fi, it's me, Marshall!" the black haired boy with his teasing eyes gave her the little devilish smile. Fionna cooled off "Gee, you completely scared me there! I always tell you, mornings are not my friend, I'm still not fully awake." She yawned and stretched her arms, Marshall just laughed as they continued walking together to school, joking around, and planning what will they do after school.
Fionna knew Marshall ever since she moved to this town and began going to the school, when the blonde haired girl had arrived, she knew no one, and then she met Marshall, even though he was a real pain, and mean at first, became a good friend. Since then the two were always doing stuff together, being "best bros" as they called each other.
Fionna closed her locker with a sigh and leaned on it "Well, I have math now, what about you?" "Uh…" Marshall began thinking "Literature…?" he wasn't really sure, it made Fionna giggle "anyway, I'm going to head toward my class, and you PROMISE me you won't skip any lessons today." She then glared into Marshalls green eyes. "I promise." He made the most serious face he could. "GOOD!" yelled Fionna while heading toward her classroom. Marshall kept his promise and went to his lesson.
When the first two periods were finally over, the two met again in the hallway, joined by Fillip, or 'Flame prince' as Marshall and Fionna liked to jokingly call him. A redhead boy with Mohawk and a personality matching his looks with beautiful yellow eyes, he was the one who completed this weird gang. Sometimes he would show up for school, the next day decide that he doesn't "feel" like coming, doesn't care much about school, and more about his and Marshalls band.
"Hey guys." Fillip came over and wrapped his hand around Marshalls neck, with his other hand they 'bro fisted' as their usual greeting. Fionna gave Fillip a glance "And where have you been the first AND second lesson?" She demanded an answer from the boy "You see… I was about to go out when-" he couldn't finish the sentence because the blonde cut him mid-sentence "Let me guess, your dog ate your homework? No, no, I got a better one!" She put a finger on his mouth to make Fillip keep silence and continued "You went outside of your house, when suddenly, boom!" she made a hand gesture of explosion "The whole neighborhood blew up because of a war between your neighbors, and Fillip the brave adventurer had to go through the trial to gain the power to save the world!" Fionna ended the story with two fists to the air "Fillip saves the day again and comes late for school!", and all three began to laugh, Fionna always had a great imagination when it came to inventing stories, hence why her best subject was literature.
The group continued down the hallway and sat on a bench "And then he comes over to me and tries to prove me wrong! So I said-" Fillip was about to finish a story, but was cut off again in by one of his friends, this time it was Marshall "Hey Fi, who's that newbie?" He pointed toward a guy with a light brown hair, and light blue eyes, with one hand he held his books and notes and was chewing a gum.
"His name is Gale, or as I like to call him 'Bubba' because he always have a gum. He moved here last week, he's in your class." Fionna then laughed "How come I haven't seen the guy in class?" Marshall was surprised "You weren't here last week so that explains, he goes absent from some lessons because he's in advanced science class" She explained.
The guy had noticed Fionna and waved his hand with a smile, she replied him with the same soft smile, and he went back to his previous conversation. "I don't like this guy." Fillip already started to prejudge the guy, that's what he always does "He looks nice but I think it's just to deceive everyone, I'm not buying it." He said to the group.
Marshall just stared, a thought went through his mind, and a strange feeling through his body, he didn't like it, shaking his head he looked at his friends. "I agree with Fillip."
"What? Marshall no, since when do you listen to Fillip! No hard feelings, you know it's right." The boy just pouted. "He's a really smart and nice guy!" She tried to get Marshall Take back his words, Fionna knew if he disliked someone, he would put the person through hell, and she didn't want that to happen to her new friend.
Fillip gave Marshall a smirk, and the other boy replied him with his known vicious grin, Fionna already knew that this isn't going anywhere near good but she couldn't do anything to stop those two.
The break was over, Marshall headed to his class, when he noticed that the table where he usually sits alone, was filled by the new guy. "What do you think you're doing?" Marshall stood in front of Gale "Sitting?" he looked up from his book at the black haired guy "don't try to outsmart me, I always sit here alone, everyone knows it!" Marshall exclaimed, a voice was heard over his shoulder "Well I guess you'll have to deal with it for now Marshall, and be nice toward the new student, now sit!" The teacher said.
Gale was indeed very smart like Fionna described him, and it irritated Marshall "Show off" he said quietly as the bell rang "Class dismissed, thanks god." The teacher mumbled the second part to herself and left the classroom. "What have I done to you that you already hate me so much Marshall? I don't even know you." Gale gave a quick glace as he put his books inside the backpack and on his shoulder.
The way he pronounced his name, it made Marshalls stomach flip, he didn't like this feeling, he got up fast and didn't reply, just passing by Gale and without even noticing he pushed him aside and the boy fell "Watch it!" he shouted at Marshall, but Marshall was out of the class, on the way he saw Fillip, grabbed him to their usual spot out in the open air.
"Ugh, I just hate him. I don't know, he just makes me feel angry, I want to punch him!" Marshall told his confused friend "Who? And why didn't you do that?" Fillip asked "Gale! Who else? And I don't know why I didn't, it's just so frustrating!" Marshall looked down at his feet. "You know what Marshall; you couldn't do anything because I wasn't there! So tomorrow, right in the morning, we'll show that guy who's the boss, agreed?" Fillip tried to cheer him up.
"Yes! That's exactly what we will do!" It sure did cheer Marshall. "Do what?" Fionna came over "Don't tell me it has something to do with Gale." She said and sighed "Then we won't tell you" they said together and smiled.
