4. Chapter 4

Hey guys! Sorry it's been a while! But I still hope you enjoy! :)

Walking to the middle of the room I started to feel a slight giddy-ness bubble inside of me. Despite my annoyance at Gumball for the way he had been treating me, and the fact that I didn't know how to dance properly.

Gumball took ahold of my hand and placed one on my waist bringing me closer.
He smiled down at me; I smiled back. We were best friends right? From the very beginning.

"Now Fionna, I can tell that you don't know how to dance properly, so do try not to embarrass me too much." Gumball said, still smiling.

Is he blind? Does he seriously DONT see how rude that was? Forget this guy.

But before I could walk away, the music had already started, and I was pulled back into the dance. It started off extremely uncomfortable, and I tripped a couple times only to be uprighted by PG; Then getting a glare.

Trying to avoid his glares, I put my eyes on anything and everything that wasn't him. Looking over Gumball's shoulder I saw Marshall Lee twirling Sweet Tart around. Smirking and Sticking his tongue out, he looked at me and gave me a wink.

This made me blush and giggle and was surprised when I got spun around by Gumball in time to the music, totally disorienting my sense of direction; making me crash into LSP and his date.

"Man get off my lumps!" He cried out. "Glob! Yeah, forget this wad, lets go." He said dragging his date by the hand.

Gumball stared unbeleivingly "Fionna honestly! What is up with you lately?! You just made some of my guests leave! And I get the sense that you don't want to dance with me. Would you rather dance with The Vampire King himself? I saw him flirting with you." Gumball ranted.

Flirting..? Even though Gumball was mad at me I couldn't help but put that aside and feel butterflies flapping around inside my insides.

"Well anyways, it looks like your out of luck." Gumball continued, crossing his arms and tapping his foot impatiently. "There goes Marshall over there." He pointed.

I turned around and sure enough Marshall was leading SweetTart by the hand, through the back curtains that separated the ballroom from the "secret" garden.

However it wasn't much of a secret seeing of how everyone knew it was there. It was just more secluded than the main one.

It was clear on SweetTart's face that she was swooning over Marshall. But that's the type of games he always played. I reminded myself, getting a feeling of nausea wash over me . Always flirting and messing around.

Shaking my head I remembered all the times that we had hung out together in the past years. I know that there is just a side to him that just wants to have fun.

Gumball huffed. "He doesn't value anything. To him, everything is just a game Fionna. Remember that." And the he turned on his heel and walked away leaving me alone in the middle of the dance floor.

I stared at the curtains that Marshall took SweetTart through. And for once, I hoped that he was just playing one of his games, and SweetTart just became his unlucky pawn.
