Marshall's POV
I'm sick! My head hurts, my throat is hoarse and I feel all around gross. I woke up to Fionna calling me. "Hey Fi." I said. "You sound terrible." She said. "Thanks
captain obvious." I said. "Do you need anything?" She asked. "*cough cough* Cough syrup." I said. "Okay. I'll see what I can do." Fionna said. I pulled my blanket up
to my neck and tried to fall asleep.
Fionna's POV
Poor Marshall. My classes start soon, but I know the perfect person to ask. I dialed his number. "Hi Fionna." Gumball said. "Hey G, I need a favor..."
Gumball's POV
I walked down the aisle at Walgreens and grabbed the cough syrup Fionna asked me to give to sick Marshall. I also grabbed some cold medicine, and a thermometer.
Just in case. I went to Marshall's house and knocked on the door. Nothing. I twisted the doorknob, it was unlocked. Marshall's house is surprisely cleaner than
excepted. I wonder if Fionna has anything to do with that. I walked upstairs and found him up to his neck in blankets. He opened his eyes. "What are you doing here?"
He asked hoarsely. "I brought you some cough syrup. Mind if I take your temperature?" I asked. I'm a medical student, so for some odd reason taking a sick person's
temperature is fun. "102 degrees." I said. I poured the cough syrup into the lid and handed it to Marshall. He drank the thick purple liquid, "*cough cough* That shit is
strong." Marshall said. He handed back the lid. "Thanks Gum-Gum." Marshall said. I scowled, "I better get going." I said. "I was just kidding." Marshall said. Was he
asking me to stay? "If you need anything, I'll be downstairs." I said. I sat on his couch and got some reading in. I glanced up at the clock. 3pm. I heard Marshall
coming downstairs. I looked up and saw he was wearing nothing but a pair of thin boxers. He walked into the kitchen and made himself a sandwhich. I remember how
Fionna stared at him at the car wash. How he's dating her, but Fionna deserves better. I wonder if he's...slept with her. "I'm feeling a lot better." he said, plopping
down on the couch. "That's good." I said, distantally. He gobbled down the sandwhich. 'Slob.' I thought to myself. "Your a pretty good doctor." He said. "T-thanks."
His compliment took me by surprise. "So Gumball, do you have a girlfriend?" Marshall asked. "No." I said. "Do you have crush on anybody?" He asked. Besides Fionna,
there is this cute girl in one of my classes. "There's this one girl, she's studying to be a Neurologist." I said. "Gumball's got a little crush."Marshall said. Fionna walked
in the front door. "Hey guys. Are you feeling better Marshall?" Fionna asked. "Yeah, way better." Marshall said. Fionna kissed him on the cheek. "Good to hear." Fionna
said. I felt my cheeks burn with jealously. "I...better go." I said. I rushed out the door.
Marshall's POV
Gumball practically ran out the front door. Fionna sat on my lap, "Sorry I couldn't come until now. School." Fionna said. "It's okay. Hanging with Gumball was
surprisingly okay." I said.
Three days later...
Fionna's POV
Leo, Cake, Bea, Gumball, Marshall and his band came over for game night. "Glad to see your feeling better." Gumball said to Marshall. We all played Monopoly, and
drank some beer. "There's this concert at the beach in a couple of months and Scream Godz is preforming. Billy talked with guy that's in charge and got us the gig."
Troy said. "My parents own a house by beach, we can all go down to the beach." Leo said. "Really? You'd let us stay in your parents house?" Ash asked. "They rarely
go up to the beach anymore, I'm sure it would be cool." Leo said. "I'm down." Bea said. "That does sound like fun." Gumball said. I just sat there and drank my beer.
I didn't want to be a party pooper, but I have a huge fear of the ocean. "Then it's decided, we're going to the beach!" Marshall said.
