Hi :) I'll try making daily updates from now on. This chapter takes place when PB likes Marceline for a while. Oh and this is before Finn and Fionna ever lived in the tree house meaning the vampire siblings still live there. Also I don't know why PB's such a nervous wreck in this chapter but whatevs. Ya long-ash chapter. Sorry. That's why it took so long to update
Chapter 2: What?
Marceline had taken her bro's advice and started to slightly hint at Bonni that she liked her. But Bonni being thirteen(soon to turn fourteen), didn't really quite get what she was trying to do. She saw Marceline's flirting as...strange behavior. The princess did not understand why Marceline would stare at her for long periods of time and blush when caught in the act. Was she hiding something? Or why her best friend would unnecessarily whisper compliments(making her blush) in her ear when she can just say them out loud. Or why now, whenever they watched movies together, Marcy would scoot closer to her and rest her head on her shoulder and sigh. The vampire was more of a love/hate kind of person. She would always try to scare her or tease her, but now she was just acting...affectionate? She had been in her study thinking about Marceline's behavior all night. That's where it struck Bonnibel.
"Affectionate...affectionate. Affectionate? Maybe she...likes me now? Do I like like her? I don't really know...I mean yeah, sometimes I feel rather odd around her as if magic jellybeans were jumping around in my stomach or how sometimes I think she looks so...sexy that it kinda makes me feel unusual...oh glob! What am I saying? I'm not even sure if she likes me! She probably just has something to tell me...like...like a secret! I'll ask her! Maybe. I don't know...I'll do it eventually." she rambled on to Science the Candy Corn rat.
Bubblegum decided that today was the perfect day to question Marceline on her strange behavior. Today was her fourteenth birthday and tonight the Vampire Queen would be paying her a visit to give her a gift and wish her a 'Happy Birthday' as she did every year since they met. They would be all alone. With plenty of time to discuss certain things. It was 10:24 and PB started to get fidgety. Marceline would be arriving soon and would be staying till 12 so that they can spend the rest of her birthday together. She was sitting in her room on her bed. Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail(she had grown it out long enough) and she was wearing a long, hot pink tank top with a red heart in the center and blue skinny jeans like her best friend's.
"I have no idea how I'm going to go about this...huh...why am I nervous? I mean it's just Marcy. She probably just has something she wants to tell me ha...but how will I ask her?"
"Ask me what?" Marceline questioned, cocking her head to the side. She had only heard "how will I ask her" assuming that Bonni meant her.
"Holy son of a toot!" Bonnibel exclaimed, whipping her head around to her window. "Uhhhh oh no I was referring to Lady. Yeah I...um need to ask her about some...uh girl issues I've been having..." she stuttered, now fully facing her best friend.
Marceline set down her present for Bonni and floated inside her room(she had been peering through the window).
"You can tell me. If you don't mind me asking."
"Oh no I don't mind." the princess did not want Marceline to have any suspicions so she decided to make something up. "Uh...well you see...I uh started my um period."
"Oh." Marceline knew how to deal with a lot of things...but not something like this. "Well...uh yeah nevermind I think you should talk about this with Lady she can handle this kinda stuff better haha." she said rubbing the back of her neck.
Bubblegum's plan had worked. "Ha yeah...that's why I was thinking of asking her first." she said awkwardly.
*cough cough* "So uh...Happy Birthday Bonni."
"Thank you."
"So what'd you do today?"
"Oh I just had a tea party with Peppermint Butler, Bubba, Lady, and Cinnamon Bun."
"Oh so what'd they get you?"
"Well Peppermint got me this Ancient Book of The Dead, I said I wanted it for research. Bubba gave me a new chem set to share. Lady got me this really cool plant. She says if I eat its flowers my hair will get all curly and pretty and Cinnamon Bun just did this weird dance for me, but I still liked it." the princess stated with a smile.
"Those gifts sound perfect...ha well except for one. But they're like everything you like right?"the vampire asked, nervous that her present might not be good enough.
"Yes. I love all my gifts very much...so um Marcy can I like, ask you something?"
"Sure. Go ahead kiddo."
"Well uh...you see...um well I noticed that you've been kinda acting different recently and I was wondering if it was cause you have something you're keeping a secret...so like is there something you wanna tell me?" PB said slightly blushing.
"Oh lumpin' heck man am I really gonna tell her like this?" the Vampire Queen thought. "Uhhhh...why don't I give you your present first k?"
"Okay..."
"Um here." Marceline handed PB a really vintage looking shoe box. PB opened it and found Marceline's favorite band shirt. PB had also liked their music after being introduced to them from Marcy awhile back. You couldn't really find their merchandise anymore so this shirt was rare.
"But Marcy...this is your favorite band shirt..."
"I know but I've owned that shirt for forever so I thought you might've wanted it. I was getting tired of it anyway" The vampire lied. She still liked that shirt but she genuinely wanted to give it to the princess because she knew she would love it.
"Oh my glob...I don't know what to say...thank you Marceline...I-I love it...this is the best gift I got today." she murmured hugging her floating best friend.
"Best? But what about all the other stuff?"
"Na man. I get stuff like that every year. You gave me something...different. Everyone gives me all this sciency stuff and they always have to ask me what I want. You gave me something really really cool without even having to ask." she said smiling, pulling away from the hug. PB looked Marceline in the eyes. She got that funny feeling again in her stomach.
"So about that thing..." the princess had cut herself short. She had been staring at the Queen and only now noticed how sexy the vampire looked. Her bangs were swept to the side with her hair in pig tails. She was wearing denim short shorts and black shoes with white laces. They were an old brand that were still in good condition even though she had had them even before the Great Mushroom War. They were called Converse. On the upper part of her floating body, she was wearing a light blue flannel that was tied at the bottom. On the inside she was wearing a white tank top. All her clothes were on so tight.
"What were you saying Bonni?"
"Oh flip. Why am I looking at Marcy like this? She's my best friend. Uh it's those-those stupid lumpin' teenage hormones I know it! But oh grod! Why does she have to look so good. Aw screw asking her! Flippin' screw it! I'm just gonna...!" she frantically thought before pulling Marceline down into a kiss.
Both girls just stood there, lips still locked. Marceline was wide-eyed, obviously filled with shock because of Bonni's sudden act. Bubblegum also had the same expression also shocked at herself for doing what she just did. PB quickly pulled away.
"Uhhh...princess?" Marceline managed to choke out. She was as red as a strawberry.
"Um..."the princess' mind was blank. She was at a loss of words. "I already knew that her 'secret' was that she liked me...that's why..." she thought.
"Uh that was my question!" Bonni yelled, blushing.
Marceline bit her lip. "She is just too adorkable."she thought.
"...Would you like me answer it?"
"Um...yes!" Bonni answered, nodding her head.
Marceline grabbed the little monarch's head and kissed her. The kiss felt like bursts of sunshine. She kissed her until the princess slightly tapped on her chest, signaling that she needed air. They broke apart and stepped back a little. They looked at each other. PB breathing hard. Both sweaty and madly blushing.
"I...I um should go haha." Marceline nervously laughed.
"Um Happy Birthday Bonni!" she yelled, leaving her room through the window, wiping the saliva of her mouth.
"What the **** just happened?" the princess said. Then gasping and covering her mouth after she realized she had used very inappropriate language.
Marceline arrived at the tree house and slammed the door shut behind her. She slid halfway down the door, still blushing. Marshall Lee was jamming on his bass.
"Yo sis. What happened?"
His sibling looked at him. Then rushed up the stairs to her room and yelled,"Nothing!" before slamming the door shut.
"Ha she acts like such a kid...she probably made out with Bubbles." he said to himself, smirking.
For those that don't know Bubba is Prince Gumball's first name. PB and him are brother and sister in this story. On another note the plant that she's referring to is the plant in "Death in Bloom". Oh and I wanted Marshall's nickname for PB to be Bubbles :) And yes the shirt they are talking about is the famous shirt from "What Was Missing". Um I don't know if I should make Prince Gumball older or about the same age as PB...what do you think? Let me know :) Read and Review plz
