She had to take a deep breath. One more bad turn and it could be the end for both of them.

The vampire queen could barely stand being out of the picture any longer. The princess was far too damn good for her own...well, good. Too bubbly, too pink, too...well, anything that the queen wasn't. But the kiss they had shared a very, very long time ago was something that couldn't be forgotten. This was something that Marceline knew very well, something that couldn't be left from her mind, and the memory was almost addicting with its pleasant nostalgia. Marceline knew there wasn't any use in trying to forget the past, no matter how emotionally troubling it was, and the girl simply couldn't let it go.

A faint knocking was on the door, and Marceline answered. There was the pink girl, how ironic the fact that the thoughts seemed to bring her here on their own, and the two girls shared a look that prompted a deep understanding. Trying to be polite, even though Marceline was awfully uncomfortable with it, the vampire stepped out of the way to let the princess come inside, even though it was late notice and her house was pretty messy. This was apparent in the gumdrop eyes, but the princess didn't seem awfully disappointed, which was relieving to the vampire only because she didn't want to have to go out of her way to clean something just for the princess alone. Bubblegum sat on the couch and happily pulled out a basket from the jacket she was wearing, opening the container and pulling out a delicious looking strawberry from the inside, before offering the red, juicy fruit to the other girl. Marceline gazed with hungry eyes at the food before swiping it out of the princess's hand and eating it, gluttonous and starved, but the princess pouted at the mere act of the swiping. She didn't like things to just be taken from her without the proper words of appreciating, but then again, when did the vampire appreciate anything?

Red trails from the fruit were now decorated on the vampire's lips, making her seem like a child who was messy with her food, and the princess simply sighed before standing up from the couch and pulling out a handkerchief, wiping off the stains and seeing the other girl blush heavily before her. Marceline wasn't really paying attention, but she noticed that the princess was wearing the shirt, the shirt that both of them knew tied a tighter bond then either of them could comprehend, and the vampire wanted desperately for Bonnibel to know that the shirt pleased her more than she would ever know. Bubblegum stopped wiping away the juice to look up at the other girl and smiled lightly, her characteristic giggle bubbling from her and shaking the emotions of the vampire up. Marceline wanted to hear that little giggle every day, every hour, every minute. It was so innocent, so joyful and beautiful...almost like the princess herself.

Marceline couldn't contain herself, and she leaned in for a taste of that beautiful pink. The leftover stem from the strawberry fell from her hand, landed on the floor and shifted to the side with the heavy wind from the air conditioner. The princess closed her eyes and leaned into the pleasant kiss, not really sure as to why the vampire was doing this, or what was influencing her to, but knowing that the outcome was very good, and she wrapped her long, flexible arms around the other slim body, enjoying the kiss as much as the other girl did.

They no longer worried about things such as the heart breaking, or if people didn't approve. The only thing that mattered to them at that moment was that they had each other, and what more could they possibly need?
