Rather Be
"What the crap?!"
"Am I dreaming?!"
"그 정말 당신 입니다 !" (That really is you!)
Bonnibel laughed at her friends' reactions, Finn was jumping up and down, Jake was calming him down and her Korean and Jake's wife hugged her tight that it is now difficult for her to breathe.
"Uh, guys.." Marceline called her friends, "I'm also here.." she grinned at her friends who were excited and ecstatic to meet Bonnibel.
So, they also know her?! "So, you guys know her except for me?" after she asked that question, everyone went quiet.
"Uh, Marcy, she's Bonnibel… She's your—" Finn was cut off when Bonnibel covered his mouth and glared at him, Finn shrank on her gaze and remained quiet.
"Marceline, what did you come here for?" she smiled at the raven haired girl who shrugged her shoulders, "I just wanna see if I can solve one problem regarding your identity, Bubblegum." She smiled as she laid herself on the couch; Bonnibel giggled and went to the kitchen.
Bonnibel took a strawberry on a bowl of fruits and smiled at the delicate taste of strawberries. The ambiances of Jake and Lady's home always have a place in her heart. It used to be an apartment where they stayed, (Finn and Jake) when they were in college. Many years later, Jake bought it for them to start their own life.
"How are you, Pbubs?" Finn asked as he went inside, he still have that sandy blonde hair, and they are now on the same height, he wears his usual blue shirt with black slacks.
"Nah, I'm fine." She smiled as she dipped the strawberry into a jar of nutella and ate it, "you? Any girlfriend or anything?" she asked, he blushed at the question and shyly nodded, "Yeah, we've been going out for a long time now.. and I'm gonna propose later, good timing that you're here." He grinned; Bonnibel patted his shoulder and said, "I'm so proud of you, Finn."
"You are?" he asked, eyes shimmering, Bonnibel nodded, "Of course, I am."
With that she proceeded to get a glass of water when Lady pinched her side, "당신은 뭐 해요 ?! 나는 예전 친구 는 출입 금지 입니다 생각 !" (what the hell are you doing?! I thought exes are off limits!) Lady narrowed her eyes at Bonnibel who laughed, "I know, I was just helping her with her baggage then she told me to go city-hopping with her," she shrugged her shoulders, "I don't see a problem in that."
"그녀는 당신의 EX 는 문제가 있다 !" (there is a problem, SHE IS YOUR EX!) Lady almost yelled when Bubblegum rolled her eyes at her, "I know that, but I don't see a problem in that, so what if she's my.." she bit her lip before continuing, "I don't care. I just wanna see and be with her, plus, she doesn't remember me."
Lady scratched her head, "당신은 정말 확실 해요? 그녀는 문제가 되지 않습니다 , 당신의 전 여자 친구 인가? 그녀가 당신을 기억 할 수 없기 때문에상황이 더 악화 된다." (Are you really sure? she is your ex-girlfriend, won't that be a problem? things are even worse because she can't remember you.)
"I know the consequences of my actions, Lady. You need not to remind me, plus, I will be here for a month or so, and then I'll go back to Germany and be back after 7 years again." She smiled as she drank a cup of water but she almost choked when Lady hugged her, "내가 보고 싶었어" (I missed you.) Bonnibel smiled and patted her friend's back, "I miss you, too."
"So is this reunion thing now done?" the two were interrupted when Marceline said those words, she was leaning on the door frame, as she smirked, she also has changed her shirt into a red plaid polo with three buttons undone showing a white shirt underneath and her long hair was now on a ponytail.
Bonnibel rolled her eyes at her, "Yeah, thanks for that." She said as she walked pass by her, Marceline raised a brow at Lady who smiled in return.
"Are you guys gonna stay for lunch?" Jake asked as he put on his apron in the middle of the living room where Bonnibel opened her suitcase and examined the dress that she's gonna wear.
"I don't know with her, are we gonna eat here?" Marceline asked as she sat next to her and grabbed the remote.
"Of course, it's been years since I tasted Jake's cooking," she looks at him, "Yes. Jake, we'll eat here."
Jake jumped and grabbed Finn's hand, "Let's go buddy! We'll roast chicken and meat like we never roasted before!" Bonnibel laughed and looked at the time, It's still 9 in the morning, she glanced at Marceline and went back to get her dress, "I'm gonna get changed," she said to her, Marceline nodded and then she called Lady, "where's your comfort room?"
Lady rolled her eyes and pointed at Marceline then upstairs, after that she winked at went back to the kitchen.
"Can you lead me where the comfort room, is?"
Marceline nodded, "Yeah, upstairs, last room the left."
With that she nodded and went on.

"PB, this is Phoebe, my girlfriend of four years." Finn blushed as he introduced his latina girlfriend, she has a red hair in a pixie cut and is wearing a red sundress, they are now in the lawn eating lunch.
"Hello, Phoebe. I am Bonnibel Bubblegum feel free to call me Bonnibel," she offered her hand which the other woman accepted and they smiled at one another, Bonnibel was seated at the coffetable while her friends rested at the grass, "So, Bonnibel, huh" Phoebe sat across from her and smiled, "Yes, Phoebe." She said firmly, "It is Bonnibel."
Phoebe nodded, "I've heard about you and Marcy, how does it feel?" she asked, Bonnibel tilted her head, "I didn't mean to insult or offend, I'm studying Guidance and Counseling, I'm just curious, God, Im so sorry."
BOnnibel laughed, "It's okay, it hurts but I'm okay," she smiled, Phoebe nodded and looked at Marceline who is currently strumming an acoustic guitar.
"Do you still love her?" she asked, Bonnibel nodded, "Yes, of course."
Phoebe stood up, "Then go and get her." She winked before walking towards her boyfriend.
"So, any of you guys mind telling me who Bonnie is?" Marceline asked as they're now sitting on the lawn, eating the food Jake and Finn made for them.
"Ahhh, how about you, Finn?" Jake nudged Finn, he blushed and rolled his eyes, "Well, Bonnibel graduated BioChemistry, got her Ph.D then moved to Germany afterwards as a researcher."
Jake sighed, "No, man, I mean Bonnibel. Not PB."
Lady laughed, and pointed at Jake, "Okay, Let me try to talk. So you better listen, alright?" he looks at Marceline who got a confused thumbs up in return, "Pb is a pyscopath, who would do everything in the name of Science, she's also an apathetic woman who would-" Jake was cut off when Bonnibel glared at her, he swallowed and hid behind his wife's back, "What he said, disregard those. Those things are not true, I may be apathetic but I am not a pyscopath." She rolled her eyes and continued eating when Marceline said, "Wow, 10-10 would date you." And after that, they went silent.
Bonnibel just smiled and said, "You're too kind, Marcy, 11-11 I would date you, too." She smiled, Marceline blushed.
"I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable or anything," she scratched her head which was returned with another smile from Bonnibel, "now, shall we get going now?"
"Yeah, we're heading off to Nightos, we'll arrive there by 5 PM if we get going now." She shrugged her shoulders as she stood up, Bonnibel followed and whispered to Finn, "Invite me on the wedding," she winked at him and followed the raven haired girl inside to get their things.
"Since we're traveling light, Lady lets me borrow her shoulder bag" she said as she puts the sling on her shoulder and Marceline followed suit carrying a back pack with her.
"Okay, so where are we heading next, Abadeer?" she smirked at the raven haired girl who threw a helmet at her, Bonnibel's brow was raised, "What are you trying to imply with this helmet?"
"Uh, we're going to Nightosphere." She answered like it's obvious thing in the world, "I know, but we won't ride on a car?"
Marceline laughed, "Nope, Marshall died in a car accident and that's how I forgot things, you know." She frowned but was replaced with a grin, "coming with me?" she asked, Bonnibel nodded. "Of course, I will be meeting Mr. Hunson?"
Marceline shook her head, "No, you'll be meeting my girlfriend!"
And with that, Bonnibel could feel her heart breaking into pieces, for the second time.
