Bonnibel's POV

I pulled down my dress over my knees once again on the ride over to Finn's house, trying to ignore Louise's garbling about how upset she was over her boyfriend Brad being out of town for "The biggest globbin party of the year". I am actually surprised LSP and I stayed friends this long after high school, she was always involved in all the gossip and drama which has never really been my style. To be honest I just thought she wanted to be friends because without me she would have flunked senor year.

"They got this awesome band playin, like oh my glob! They just got back from tour, I mean Marceline and the Scream Queens came from this shitty town. I can't believe it."

Marceline? She is going to be there! We haven't spoken since she left and I still feel terrible about that whole situation. She told me she loved me. I have been waiting to hear those three words from her, since... since forever. But she was going on tour for a year, and decided then of all moments to tell me. My emotions were off the charts, and I would never resort to physical violence with any one. Especially not with Marcy… Not after what she went through with Ash our sophomore year.

"Hey Marcy!" I call out to her as she gets off her motorcycle. She gives me a weak smile and walks over in her signature leather jacket, even though its 98 degrease outside.

"Take that thing off! You're going over heat!" I scold as we walk towards the building.

"Alright anything for you BonBon…" she says stripping the jacket only for me to see three large bruises on her right arm.

"MARCEINE! WHAT HAPPENED?" I pull her arm closer to examine them, one of them looks like someone tried to grab her.

She pull away quickly, sliding her jacket back on. "It's nothing, just fell off my bike yesterday, no biggy" she says rather rushed.

"That's some bullshit, did he do this to you? I swear to the Great Cosmic Owl that if he is doing this shit again I'm going to kil-"I'm cut of when her sleazy boyfriend throws his arm around her.

"Hey baby! Been lookin' for you all mornin, come on and walk me to class sweet heart." He shoots me a nasty look before directing her away from me.

"We were talking about something important Ash"

"Drop it. I got it handled" she mumbles under her breath and follows her senior boyfriend to his class.

This went on for two months, until Marceline finally broke when Ash sold her most prized position to make a quick buck.

Lunch came around and I was heading out to the spot where our group of friends sit, when I see a bunch of people gathered around in a circle. I don't normally pay much attention to fights, but I ran over when I heard Marceline's voice over the crowd.

I shoved my way through the mas of people to see Marceline pacing back and forth, clenching her fists, trying to control her anger like I thought her.

"YOU SON OF A FUCKING BITCH! HOW COULD YOU DO THAT?"

"Relax babe, it's just a doll." I can here Ash try to keep his cool under his shaking voice. "

"JUST A DOLL? YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MENT TO ME! YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!"

He tilts his head slightly, mocking her "Now sweetheart, don't make me put you back in your place. Didn't we discuss this issue of you getting out of line last night? Or do we need a little reminder?"

"We. Are. Done" She states in a firm tone, turning to walk away.

He grabs her arm and jerked her back. I almost lunged out of my spot, but stopped myself. This is Marceline's battle.

"What did you just say to me?"

Marceline whipped her arm around so fast I almost didn't see her punch Ash in the stomach, and while he was doubled over on the concrete, stomp her boot into his crotch

"Did I fucking stutter?" She said before one final kick to his man hood, storming off to another part of the school.

I waited a few minutes for the people to dissipate, leaving Ash on the ground holding his groin. "You ever touch her again and I will make sure you will pissing threw a tube for the rest of your life." I say kneeing him in the man hood, sending him back on the ground.

I run up to the roof to find my best friend laying stretched out looking at the clouds. Her brow furrowed the way it always did when she was deep in thought.

"I was so stupid Bonni." She says softly. Never taking her eyes off the sky.

"Yes. And you still are. But it's all a series of trial and error. This was just an error." I state. "Marcy, none of this was your fault. And I'm glad this happened."

"Thanks for the pep talk Bon, you're a real pal" She smirks and turns her head to look at me. Her dark brown eyes betray her face, so full of hurt and sadness.

"I'm just saying that it's good you realized what a whenis Ash is. Before he really hurt you. Or got you pregnant."

"We never had sex." I look at her in bewilderment. I honestly thought they did have sexual relations.

She giggles softly and says "but that is a nasty thought, little Ashes running around" shivering slightly in disgust.

I try to hold back my giggles as she sits up. "Well after the number you did on him today it looks like that's never going to happen"

"Bonnibel! Are you even listening?" LSP looks over to me.

"Sorry I um got lost in some thoughts…"

"Well it doesn't matter we are here, and it looks like the party is starting to get good, oh my glob I have to call Melissa and tell her what she is missing!" She pulls out her phone and starts fixing her 'diva' hair.

I take the opportunity to check my eyeliner in the mirror, noticing I got a bit teary eyed with the memory. I never used to like make up. I found the fact that girls so focused on physical appearance was appalling, I felt that people should be liked for their personal qualities. But in the last few years I found that a little make up to enhance one's looks never hurt. I center my tiara and wait for my loud friend to get off the phone.

"Well let's get out there and mingle! Because I know all the boys won't be able to take their eyes off of these lumps!" She yells getting out of her purple Camaro, and pushing her purple strapless dress up a bit more.

The 'diva' looks me up and down adding "And B, you're looking good in that little pink cocktail dress you got on there. The sexy princess thing is really working for you"

I roll my eyes as we walk into the party.
