Chapter 7
[Ooo High School P.E. Class]
Marceline was all set to attend her P.E. Class she walked upstairs to where the gym was. So far Marceline actually enjoyed school, the place looks alright, its has a music studio where she can play whenever she feels like it, and she found a group of awesome peeps. On the other hand some of her teachers are assholes, but other than that, yup she likes it so far.
When she got to the gym it was still a bit early. She looked around and spotted Bubblegum. And it seemed that she was reading some book. Sigh Bonnie. You can never stop studying can you? Than an idea hit her. She carefully sneaked behind Bonnie not drawing any attention. However Bonnibel didn't suspect a thing. Then Marceline leaned in towards Bubblegum's ear from behind and whispered.
"Helloooo Boonnibel." she whispered lightly making sure to lengthen the vowels.
Bonnie widened her eyes as she felt goosebumps crawl down her spine she jumped and turned around.
"Marceline! What the heck you almost gave me a heart attack no joke." she held her hand over her heart and tried to calm down.
Marceline grinned with delight good to see you too Bonnie." Bubblegum gave her the dirty look.
Marceline raised her hands in defense looking to a side. "Hey don't blame me, you were reading again and I think you should relax and have more fun."
"Well thank you for your concern." she said with sarcasm in her voice.
Marceline remembered something "Oooh, by the way Bonnie you are coming to the paint ball game right?" she looked at Bonnie and trying to read her face.
Bubblegum sighed "Yes Marceline I am coming."
"Good, because if you wouldn't I would find you and drag you there myself." she said crossing her hands.
Bonnibel smiled but rolled her eyes. "You have no idea where I even live."
Marceline chuckled "Well I did say I would find you didn't I." she shot back.
Bubblegum looked at her "Marceline that sound scary." Marceline just gave her an innocent smile. Which caused Bubblegum to feel the butterflies in the stomach.
The coach blew the whistle and everyone formed a line in front of him.
It turns out that today was another day of dodge ball practice. The teams were formed again, however this time Bubblegum got to be in the opposing team. That made Marceline form a mischievous smile on her face. Knowing Marceline Bubblegum already suspected what the other girl though and that didn't exactly make her feel happy.
Marceline had already planned this out she would let the other team get most of her team before she started taking them out. So the people on her team wouldn't get Bubblegum before she did. She noted that Bonnibel always kept glancing at her as if ready to dodge the hit that will come sooner or later.
However a guy from Marceline's team aimed for Bonnie and threw the ball, Bonnie saw it coming and knew she wouldn't have enough time to dodge it. So what Marceline did was she shot her own ball at the incoming one. It shot it away from Bubblegum and she was safe.
"What the hell's your problem? I had that hit." the guy came up to Marceline and shoved her lightly.
"Sorry my hand slipped." she snickered. "More importantly shouldn't you be more focused on the game." she said pointing at the opposing team.
Just before he could say something back at her, a ball flew and hit him in the gut. He stumbled and cursed under his breath. Marceline just looked at the guy as he got out of the field.
When she was finally satisfied with the situation Marceline turned her attention back on the team across from them, and started shooting dodge balls at Bonnie. She didn't aim directly at the girl and it didn't take long for Bubblegum to realize that. She narrowed her eyes at Marceline and shot the ball wright at Marceline. She effortlessly dodged it by tilting her head to the side, the dodge ball missing her just by mere few centimeters.
Right after that Marceline took a swing as if saying thats it while she smiled, so Bubblegum closed her eyes and put her hands in front of her and readied herself for impact however all she felt was a light tap as the ball barely hit her hand. Marceline had tricked her into thinking she was gonna go full out, only to catch her off guard.
She opened her eyes and found Marceline winking at her. She rolled her eyes but smiled a bit.
[Time Skip-Chemistry Class]
Marceline walked into the classroom placed her bag next to her desk and flopped down onto her seat next to Bubblegum, who was reading that same book from earlier.
"You know you could have avoided all that play time during dodge ball and just got me out right?" she said without looking away from her book.
"Welllll I practically coould, but does that mean I wanted to?" she snickered at Bubblegum "plus wheres the fun in that. It was totally cute seeing you all worked up like that."
Bubblegum looked up from her book "I-it was what?"
Marceline just turned her head away from Bonnie smiling "Nothing."
The teacher came into the classroom, and the lesson started.
"Hello everybody, its nice seeing you all today." the teacher smiled.
"I think you will enjoy this classroom lab very much. We will be using different meta salts to make different colored flames."
After a long and boring step by step explanation from the teacher we actually began doing the experiment. Marceline thought.
She was working with Bonnibel because thats her partner for the rest of her chemistry class.
And she really did enjoy being her partner, other nerds in the entire school seemed really boring to her, however Bonnie was chill she liked her.
"Alrighty Bonnie we got all the stuffs?" Marceline looked at the list presented in front of her.
Bonnie looked around "Hmmm yup we got alcohol, barium chloride, boron, strontium, calcium, lithium, sodium, copper, and potassium salts." she pointed with her finger at the salts as she named them. While Marceline checked them off the list.
"Alright princess let me do the honors so you won't hurt your precious little hands." she teased getting out a lighter.
"Since when are we so caring." Bonnie asked.
Marceline looked at her and puffed her cheeks. "Since the beginning of the time, and when did you rid me of the right to care for someone?" she asked putting on her protective glasses.
Bonnie put on her own and chuckled. "Just light it up already smart ass."
Marceline smiled and lit up the salts.
"Alright so alcohol is burning in dark blue color, barium chloride is burning a dirty-ish yellow color, boron burning green, strontium a crimson red..."Bonnie started.
"..while calcium gives off an orange flame, red flames by lithium, sodium has a bright yellow flame, copper surprisingly has green color, and at last potassium salts give off a pinkish purplish color."
Marceline ended while smiling.
Bonnie looked at her and smiled "Looks like someone did their homework."
Marceline chuckled. "Cmon lets be honest I never do my homework."
Marceline carefully put out the flames and they started working on their data papers.
"Oh, by the way Marceline don't forget we are supposed to meet at the parking lot today after school."
She nodded "Yup, no worries I remember princess. I'll be a bit late thought. I'll need to stay after school for five minutes." she chuckled innocently.
Bonnie sighed "Marceline what did you do this time?"
Marceline pouted "Apparently the teacher doesn't appreciate the paper airplanes I sent her."
After looking at her Bonnie just smiled and chuckled, Marceline looked like a small child when she did that, and that was adorable. Marceline just smiled in response.
