Hello, my name is EvelioandZgroup. Here is this long overdue chapter. Enjoy.
Penny was scared, so scared. Then she remembered something that just made her wanna cry. When she ever gets scared, she would say Gumball's name over and over again. Until she stop being scared. Though Penny did it for a reason, yes she did. She knew that Gumball was the one. The one, Gumball, who would take care of her, Penny. She knew that one day that they would be together. That turned to a fantasy of hers. She saw Gumball kiss Rachel. She had started to have tears come out of her eye holes. Inside her peanut shell, was a broken heart that was shattered from one little kiss. She walked back, while seeing what she has witnessed. Then she ran. She ran home, crying. The boy she has had strong feelings for was with somebody else. Though as she was running, she stopped. She then remembered something. Rachel was with Darwin. What was he going to think?
-Bedroom-
Darwin saw what happened and seemed to feel betrayed. He went to open the window and saw clearing, Rachel and Gumball kissing. Darwin saw and his heart just died. It sank lower than the ocean floor. He fell to the floor and kept his eye on what happened. He was shock and deceived by them.
Rachel, she was the girl for him. At the party, the magic sparkled with. He may have received a kiss on the check that night, but it was a start for them. How could Gumball do this to him? After all they've been through, it seemed like it was all thrown away. Darwin, started to tear up, but he held them back and he ran and punched the door.
Darwin wasn't that strong, so it wasn't a surprise that he couldn't make a dent in the door, but possibly a broken fin. He fought his tears and he lied on the floor, not letting one tear go on the floor as if this would be a sign of defeat.
-Outside-
Gumball and Rachel loved their passionate kiss and were unaware of any tension with anyone around. This was their moment and should be left undisturbed. Penny saw it and couldn't disturb it.
Penny ran away. She ran and ran, as far away from Gumball as possible. She may have been the fastest runner in school, but even she couldn't outrun her feelings for Gumball.
As she's running, she started to have moments flash back to her mind. When they first met, when they first hanged out, even their first kiss and it was unforgettable
Penny later tripped on the ground, leaving a small crack on her antler. It could have fallen off, but Penny didn't care for that. She cried on the grass she fell on, as the darkness all around her, she nearly crawls a bit. She tears up and cries about the loss of her one true love, Gumball.
Gumball is and will always be special. He was someone who would listen and care about people. He was the one of kind guy. If you were in there school, he in particular was a girl's dream boy. He was kind, cute, considerate, helpful, and ways that he could just enlighten you in such ways that would make you feel good about yourself. Penny got up and walked home, while she did some thinking on the way back
-Meanwhile-
After the kiss, Rachel went home and Gumball went back inside. They wanted to spend more time, but didn't want to blow their secret. At least not yet.
As Gumball went back inside, he saw Darwin. He was hurt and he saw his fin hurt. He went over and grabbed him.
"Darwin, what happened!?" Yelled Gumball, who was worried enough by his brother's suffering. Darwin got up but he shoved him a bit by the side.
"I'm fine, don't worry about it." Darwin said, not evening looking at Gumball, straight in the eye. Gumball didn't understand why he was acting like this. Gumball went closer to Darwin. He laid his blue paw on his shoulder.
"Darwin, what happened?" Gumball asked. Darwin didn't bother to even take another glance at him. Darwin went to his fishbowl and just slept. Gumball couldn't understand why he didn't want to talk to him about it. Gumball felt confused by this, but felt like he wasn't needed. Darwin was getting older and if he felt like taking care of his own problems, then Gumball shouldn't interfere.
Gumball went to bed and turned off the lights and just closed his eyes. Gumball did some thinking though, even in his sleep. He may have ended it with Penny, but Rachel is still with him. He wants to tell the world about each other, but knows that this needs to keep hidden until they could handle the truth. Now wasn't the time.
-Morning-
Gumball woke up and stretched his arms out until he heard his bones cracked.
"Good morning Darwin." Said Gumball but response was heard. "Darwin?" Gumball turned and saw no sign of him. Gumball decided to get up and head downstairs. Gumball was still in his clothes that he wore last night.
Darwin was there, but just eating his cereal, calm and neutral. He didn't really look like himself. Gumball went to get some breakfast as well. When he turned to Darwin, he saw that he was upset and didn't feel like "Darwin." Gumball didn't feel like eating breakfast anymore. He cared about his brother than think about his appetite in a time like this.
Gumball said, "Darwin?" Darwin just turned the other way. "Is there something wrong, dude?" Darwin didn't bother to acknowledge his brother. Darwin felt like Gumball just stabbed him in the back
How could Gumball do this? Darwin knew that Gumball knew that he loved Rachel. Rachel had feelings for him, but then Gumball must have "manipulated" her into thinking something else. What went wrong? Darwin had no answer to it. Darwin didn't know what to do, until someone came into his thoughts. Someone that understands EXACTLY what's going through as well when they find out. Penny Fitzgerald.
Darwin rose up a bit and rushed out, but tripped when he left his chair. Gumball went over quickly to help him. Gumball barely touched his arm and he quickly shoved him and didn't say another word when he ran out the door.
Gumball stood there, confused and didn't know what happened. With Darwin gone, Gumball went over to the phone nearby. He grabbed it and dialed Rachel's number. He waited for a moment and then she answered. Her sweet, gentle voice could help forget about what happen for now.
"Hello"
"Rachel?"
"Oh, hey Gumball! How's it going?"
"For hearing your voice, I feel that made my day." That small stamen made Rachel giggle at the phone. Even Gumball gave a little laugh at it. Her giggle was like being kissed by angel. She may seem like an anger person to some, but sometimes…you just need to know a person see their beauty.
"I was wondering if you wanted to go down to the park."
"In public?"
"Yes. People can see us, but we can still hide it. The one thing we can't hide is us, having a good time." Gumball couldn't see her at the phone, but he knew at that moment, he made her smile.
"Okay Gumball. But what are we gonna do there?" Gumball thought for a moment.
"Do you still have the necklace I gave you?"
"Of course. I never took it off since the day you gave it to me."
"Even in the shower?" Rachel laughed when she heard that. Gumball felt like he was bringing joy to her life.
"Yes. But the point is I do."
"Well I wanted to do something special for you, with the necklace."
"What did you have in mind?"
"I want to draw you again. This time, with the necklace."
"Well, I'm not much of a model."
"But you're my cover girl." Gumball smiled when he said that. It was true though. Rachel was a cover, but also a symbol to him. A symbol of love to him.
"Okay then. At what time should we meet up?"
"How about now? Let's just go out and just spend as much time together as possible."
"I couldn't agree more." With that, Gumball went to his room. He grabbed his sketchpad and color pencils, and then he ran out the door. He never stopped smiling.
