I went over and re-read "Running out of Time" and decided that I really didn't want to let the story go. I know it's bad to write two fanfics at one time but fuck it right? lol I'll have to refresh my memory of where I was going with it, but I'm sure I wrote it down somewhere. But meanwhile please enjoy this AU fanfic that doesn't involve zombies. I have no clue where this one will go as well, but I'm sure it'll be fine xD Enjoy! ~cuptanm0ex
"Shockingly, this is pretty good Marcy." Bonnibel stated while twirling her noodles around her fork
"Gee thanks Bon." Marceline rolled her eyes
Marceline watched as Bonnibel ate her food. She never really understood why spaghetti was her favorite dish, but she decided to ignore it and continued eating. Bonnie, on the other hand, stared at Marceline gobble down her food as if she had been starved for days. What is her diet now a days? She thought. Sighing, Marceline finished her plate and took Bonnibel's who offered to wash her own dish, but the other girl refused and headed towards the kitchen. The pink haired girl pouted and walked to the couch to sit down and watch T.V.
This just in, a Rowan County clerk by the name of Kim Davis is still refusing to issue a marriage license to a gay couple after The Supreme Court demanded her that she has to. I've got to say Jimmy, she's one hell of a stubborn lady.
You've got that right Tasha. In other news-
"Damn people. It's like people reject the feelings of homosexuals simply because of their sexuality. What if some homosexuals don't like or believe in straight marriage? People wouldn't care about what they feel because they're gay and they're not normal. Gah! The world is so ridiculous today." Bonnibel softly yelled as she shut off the T.V. She was actually upset about how gay people are treated now a days. It's cruel and unfair.
"Welcome to America Bonnie. Where beating up gay kids is normal and murdering cops get away because of their badge." Marceline rolled her eyes.
Bonnibel stood up and stretched. She sure was tired, but where would she sleep? Glob.. Was she going to sleep with Marceline? No no no. She couldn't think that way, but she wouldn't mind. Gah! Her mind was boggled with so many thoughts that she didn't even notice Marceline standing in front of her this whole time. The pink girl blushed a deep shade of red.
"You going to bed soon Bonnie? I don't have classes tomorrow, but I do have work." The raven haired girl explained
"I only have one class tomorrow and then I'm going to go and tutor fourth graders down by the elementary school, but I'll be done to go and watch you perform with your band" she smiled sweetly.
"Oh.. Okay. So meet me at the cafe when you're done and stuff tomorrow?" Marceline asked as she sat down on the couch, yawning.
"Yes ma'am. Someone looks a bit sleepy. Would you like to go to sleep Marcy?" Bonnibel asked as she stood up
"That'd be nice. You can take my bed for the night Bonnie. I'll sleep on the couch." Marceline said as she pulled out a spare blanket from the other end of the couch
"But.."
"What is it?" Marceline asked
"No. It's nothing. Goodnight Marcy. Thanks for everything."
"Night Bon, and no problem." she replied as she put her head down
Sighing, Bonnibel retreated to Marceline's room and got into the bed. She pulled the covers high enough to cover her mouth.
Marceline.. Do you not like me anymore? Do you not love me anymore?...
The next morning Bonnibel woke up to silence. She sat up and stretched her arms with a loud yawn. She quietly got out of bed hoping to not make too much noise to wake the other girl. She looked around the apartment and found the pale girl missing. Just then a ring on her phone caught her attention.
Hey Bonnie! I headed off to work early to set up stuff before we're busy. It is Friday. e.e Anyways, I'll see you later right? Have a good day today! Love you.
Sent 8:32am
Bonnibel re read the text over and over again. She blushed everytime she read the last words. Love you huh? Bonnibel thought as she smiled and got ready for the day. Tutoring kids was fun and all but she was more excited to see Marceline later on that day.
At the cafe
"Come on Marceline! We don't have all day. I don't know why you had to make such a huge plan about this." Keila said rolling her eyes
"Keila. It's bound to work, It's just a prank leading to something else. Just help me out and if not for me then for my wicked guitar dude." the other girl replied
"You're lucky I love you more than the guitar." Keila scoffed
Marceline just smiled at the girl knowing that she did love the other girl as well. But her heart was only set for being in love with one person. Bonnibel Bubblegum. Both girls got done setting up and checked the time. It was 5:47 in the afternoon and the customers who were coming in to see them play were lining outside the door. Some even offered to pay to come in before the show was even ready. Simon had closed the cafe at 4:30 just so the band can set up without interruptions.
"Dude that's so rad! Look at all those people lined up to watch us play!" Bongo, the drummer of the band, excitedly said
"It's whatever." Guy, who was the pianist in the band, said in a monotone as he continued to do his piano warm ups.
"Marcy. You're not singing the last song right? I mean that's all part of the plan." Keila asked the pale skinned girl and watched as she looked up at her from tuning her bass guitar.
"Yeah. I'm gonna skip out on it and sit next to Bonnibel. You guys play it and stuff and Keila will sing it. I already recorded my bass line and hooked it up to play while Guy is playing the piano. So you guys are good." Marceline replied showing off her devilish smile
" What is this plan anyways? Is it another way to get some girl to like you Mar?" Guy asked kind of annoyed
"She's trying to win Bubblegum back but at the same time pranking her for dating Marshy." Keila laughed
"Yo! She dated Marsh? That's sick." Bongo yelled
"Tell me about it, but she didn't know and they broke up cause of me. Rumor has it that Marshall already found a guy he liked." Marceline smirked
"You think Bonnibel is gonna care?" Keila asked, worried.
"She'll be fine. I know her." Marceline said, just then Simon came up to the four band members and informed them that he would have to open the store soon. Marceline nodded her head and looked out the window.
"That's a lot of people. You think they'll all fit in here Si?" Marceline asked her ex care taker
"This is a pretty big cafe. I'm sure it'll be fine." Simon replied as he walked towards the door.
Beep Beep
Marcy! Get me and the gang inside! It's crazy out here and I think Jake is about to beat up this dude who keeps touching Lady's butt. Pls help.
Sent 5:58 pm
I'm coming to the rescue! Tell that dog to sit or something.
Recieved 5:59pm
Marceline hopped up from her seat and slightly opened the door. The crowd began cheering and tried to pry their way into the cafe. Marceline was surprised at all the people lined up just to hear them play.
"Yo! Cool it guys! We're not ready! I'm just here to get the VIPS inside!" Marceline yelled at the scream crowd
The raven haired girl pushed her way past the crowd of fans. She frowned as she heard the vulgarity of the fan girls in the crowd. Some of them would touch her butt and whistle at her. She ignored it and found Bonnibel and the gang. They all looked annoyed and angry. Marceline laughed at Bonnibel's face and took her hand and guided them all inside. While walking back Bubblegum became even more annoyed with some certain fan girls comments
"Marceline! Touch me! Kiss me!" one girl screamed
"You don't want that bubblegum bitch! Take me instead!" another screamed
One even dared to pull Marceline by the collar and kiss her on the cheek. Marceline just smiled and continued to walk back inside the store. Bonnibel, on the other hand, stared at the ignorant girl and flipped the bird at her. The girl scoffed in return and rolled her eyes. Once inside, the gang took their seats at the front table in front of the stage. Everyone was talking while Marceline and her crew were on stage preparing for their show. Once it hit 6:15pm, Simon warned the crew that he was opening the doors. Fans didn't even let Simon finish unlocking the door before the yanked the door opened and quickly piled inside the semi-huge cafe. Keila just waved at the crowd and smiled while Bongo and Guy were finishing preparing for the show. Marceline, who wasn't as excited for the show, was back stage with Bonnibel.
"Are you fans always that rude Marceline?" Bonnie asked
"Meh. You could say so, It's pretty annoying but I can't stop them even if I tried." Marceline replied sadly
"What's wrong Marcy? It's your show. Shouldn't you be excited?" the pink haired girl asked
"I mean yeah... but earlier Keila told me that she didn't want me to sing her song she wrote.. She said it was for someone special. I mean.. She didn't even show me the lyrics." Marceline replied "sadly". Who in reality knew that this would happen.
"Why is that? Aren't you supposed to be a band? Does she think you'll mess it up?" Bonnibel continued asking getting upset for the girl
"I don't know but look I have to go. You go back out and try not to kill anyone. I'll see you when it's the last song okay?" Marceline said as she hugged the girl and got on stage
"Do your best Marcy! I love you!" Bonnibel yelled hoping the other girl heard her over the screaming crowd, but she didnt. Or so she thought.
"I love you too Bonnie.." Marceline said quietly
The show was going great. The fans sang along to all their songs and some even harmonized when Marceline was singing her solo. All in all, even though the fans were annoying to Bonnibel, she was happy for them. Bonnibel swayed her head to the slow songs and bopped her head to the more up tempo songs. Jake, Lady, Finn, Phoebe, Marshall, and Gumball were all enjoying themselves.
"Alright guys! This will be the last song of the night! But I'm going to have to sit this one out, But don't worry! Keila will be singing an original she wrote! I hope you guys enjoy!" Marceline said into the mic.
The crowd cheered as Keila stood on stage holding her signature guitar.
"Alright guys! This song is for Marceline!" Keila yelled into the mic and stared at Marceline
Marceline just smiled at the girl, meanwhile Bonnibel felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around to see Braco smiling at her. She wasn't going to let him ruin her night. She smiled at him and offered him a seat. Marceline noticed the two's interaction and bounced her leg up and down in annoyance. Just a little more time. She thought. The rest of the band nodded off to each other. Guy started playing his piano and the rest of the band joined him. Bongo started the song off with a slow beat from his drums. Keila began singing.
I've been watching you lately,
Chasing your tail and it drives me crazy.
You'll never get that girl.
She don't see in you the things that I can see,
The girl's ice cold, it ain't meant to be,
Look above the land upon you.
I've been spending time wondering why,
Nothing that I do can catch your eye.
Just can't capture your attention.
Maybe I'm too tall or not your type,
But I'm not giving up, I'll get it right.
Being close to you is my intention.
I see more in you than the rest of them do,
And I'm not gonna let you fall.
I'll swallow my pride, time after time,
Cause you're worth it all.
Keila pointed at Marceline, who was smiling back at her. Bonnibel was getting angry. How could Marceline move on so fast? Marceline then began standing up and walking towards the stage. Bonnibel grabbed onto Marceline's arm and Marceline just smiled at the girl and continued to walk as Bonnibel let go of the girl. Lady assured Bonnibel that everything will be fine, as everyone at the table except Braco and Bonnibel knew what was going on. Marshall patted Bonnibel on the back and smiled. The crew watched Marceline as she then stood next to Keila who was more than ready to pass the mic to Marceline, but Marceline refused and let Keila continue singing the chorus.
Whenever I think of you,
How I wish you only knew,
That you might be my dream come true.
But what do I have to do to make you notice me?
Marceline grabbed the mic and signaled Simon to shine the light on Braco and Bonnibel. Marceline told Jake to invite Braco and told him to tell Braco that Bonnibel would be there. She felt a little mean, but she didn't care. Bonnibel was hers and hers only. No kid will get in betweent them. Marceline then took the mic and began singing to the pink haired girl.
Oh, know that.
You and I we would be alright,
We could dance on the roof, we could light the night.
Gotta make you see me in that way.
Marceline then stepped off the stage while continuing to sing to Bonnibel. As she was singing the next verse Marceline looked at Braco with a smirk.
Why don't you,
Forget about the little bitch in white?
He don't care about you and He's so uptight.
"Hey!" Braco yelled
Let me put a smile on your face.
Marceline then looked back at Bubblegum who was blushing hard.
How I wish that you knew that I'm crazy for you.
And I'm waiting by your side. (To your side.)
I'll get you alone,
Make you my own,
It will be divine.
Keila then played the guitar solo as Marceline grabbed Bonnibel by her hand and began singing to her once the solo was over. Bonnibel was smiling at Marceline who was smiling back at her. Marceline pressed their foreheads together as she sang.
I can keep on waiting,
Cause my heart I've been saving.
Think you're gonna figure it out:
I'm the one for you and there's no one else.
Marceline then let go and left Bonnibel standing there alone. She looked at Bonnibel and continued singing the last verse to her once again. Marceline and Keila signaled the crowd to clap to the beat as all the band members stopped playing their instruments for that short moment. Bongo then started playing once again and Marceline and the band then finished the song as all the band members began playing and singing again to end their show.
Whenever I think of you,
And how I wish you only knew,
That you might be my dream come true.
What do I have to do to make you my baby?
Whenever I think of you,
(Oh whenever I think of you)
Only knew,
(Oh how I wish you knew that I'm in love with you)
Dream come true.
What do I have to do to make you notice...
It's gonna be you for me and me for you,
(Forget the bitch in white and make my dream come true)
(Gotta get it right, when I get it done)
I'm gonna win your heart, I'm gonna make you mine,
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on, come on, come on now baby.
What do I have to do to make you notice me?
Me?
Notice me?
Notice me?
The fans yelled wildly. They were cheering for the band and some were whistling at the pink haired girl. Some girls were jealous and cursed Bonnibel. Bonnibel stood at her table and clapped and couldn't stop smiling. Finn and Phoebe went up to the band and commented on their awesome show. Lady and Jake stayed behind with Gumball, Marshall and Bonnibel. Braco, who was still seated, pouted and quickly ran out of the cafe. Marceline watched the poor boy run out and laughed. Bonnie then ran on the stage and hugged Marceline.
"Marceline! That was so amazing! I loved it!" Bonnibel said as she blushed at the close contact between the girls
"Wasn't it? I'm sorry that you wanted to kill me there for a second..." Keila nervously laughed
"Well, I won't lie and say I didn't want to." She laughed in return
Guy, Bongo, Keila, and the rest of the crew excused themselves and left the two girls alone after they all went backstage to enjoy some refreshments. Some of the fans decided to stay and offered tips for the band. Simon took them all and assured them that the band is very thankful.
"So you really liked it? I'm sorry I had to embarrass that dude though. I feel kinda bad." Marceline said as she put an arm around Bonnibel.
The girls were walking outside in the chilly night. Bonnibel rested her head against Marceline's shoulder as they kept walking towards an unknown destination. They didn't care. They were alone and happy.
"Hey Bonnie?" Marceline asked. She wasn't looking at the girl, but instead kept looking foward.
"Yes?" she replied
"I love you. And you should know that."
"Well of course you dummy. Though I was debating if you still did before you pulled this stunt." Bonnibel laughed
"Yeah... Sorry. I had to get you back for dating my brother. But I'm not mad. Just wanted to prank you and welcome you back." Marceline smiled
"Welcome me back?" Bonnibel questioned
Marceline stopped walking. Bonnibel looked up at Marceline and blushed. Marceline was smiling at the girl. Not just her regular smirk or her forced smile. The raven haired girl was geniuenly smiling at her. Bonnibel's heart raced at the sight of Marceline's smile. She then felt a soft hand on her right cheek. Marceline had lifted Bonnibel's head higher and pressed their lips together. It was slow at first. Then Marceline asked for permission to enter the younger girl's mouth using "tongue language". Bonnibel allowed the other girl to enter and softly moaned as their tongues danced together. After what felt like forever Bonnibel placed her forehead on Marceline's chin for air. Marceline then hugged the girl and kissed the girl on her forehead before placing her chin on top of Bonnibel's head.
"Welcome you back into my life as my girlfriend."
