Chapter 4: A Royal Agreement between Gentlemen.
GBPOV
Gumball found himself humming lightly as he moved over to his desk to retrieve the necessary paperwork for his and Marshall's relationship agreement. Yes, an agreement, while he had strong feelings for the vampire he needed stability and something told him that Marshall wasn't always that stable.
He looked up from the baby pink parchment and smiled at Marshall.
" I have everything drawn up here, if you would just look over it and sign and initial in the appropriately highlighted areas." He chirped happily.
Marshall looked bored.
" Gummy, I really don't see why this has to be so formal, can't we just get to the part where I get to see you naked?"
Gumball sighed in amusement, " Marshall please just sign the agreement, this should be fairly quick and painless."
Marshall took the paper and began to skim the lines mumbling the words under his breath to himself. There were a few moments when he chuckled lightly but otherwise he was silent and he seemingly agreed to the terms that were set before him.
When he finally finished, he looked up.
" There you go, all finished. So now I ask you again can we please make out now?"
Gumball just smiled in contentment.

Marshall was floating under his umbrella, on his way to Fi and the cat's house. Gumball was spending the day with the two females and he wanted to see his boyfriend. So it was decided .
When he finally arrived at the tree house, he peeked into the window and saw the three of them sitting in the middle of the living room, with various swatches of fabrics, all different shades of pink surrounding them on all sides. He proceeded with caution he floated into the house.
" Hey Fi, Babes, " He paused then sneered in disgust, " Feline."
" Oh hey Marshall, what's up man."
Fionna smiled brightly the polka-dot baby pink and lavender piece of fabric falling from her hands. Cake merely hissed at him in acknowledgement.
Gumball smiled softly looking up from his poster board of outfit choices.
" Hello Marshall."
Marshall had to stop himself from floating over to him and wrapping him up in his arms, he couldn't do that. LSP would never let him live it down.
" So, what's the plan guys," he floated over the group " it looks like Gummy's tailor's workshop exploded."
" Oh dude, well P-Gubs, has some sort of hot date for a ball, and he needed our help with finding something to wear." Fionna said with forced cheerfulness.
" I see. Well that sounds like something that I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be the most help in."
"Well, of course you couldn't, look at the way you're dressed," Cake drawled while fluffing her bow.
Marshall just smirked. Whatever .
" Gummy, could I speak with you for a moment," Marshall said pointedly.
Gumball looked up puzzled but after excusing himself, he really was too polite, and brushing off his already tidy clothes stood to follow him. When they reached the kitchen Marshall rounded on Gumball and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips.
Gumball gasped lightly, " mmm- " he was cut off by Marshall pecking his lips again, " Marshall, what are you doing?"
" I missed you, and you decided to hang out with them today so I decided to come and kiss you. "
" I see, well thank you..I" Marshall chuckled at him and shook his head .
" Gummy, just shut up, and kiss me okay?"
"Okay."
…
Marshall lounged around the air over his fashion obsessed boyfriend and Fi, Cake had flitted off to go see Lord M. So he was stuck amusing himself with how Fi attempted to flirt horribly, and Gumball being oblivious to it the whole time.
" So, Uh, P-Gubs do I uh, ya know, know this girl…"
" Hmm, oh I'm sorry Fionna were you saying something?"
" Never mind, I just know you're going to look math in this suit Gumball, I wish I could go with you."
" Well Fionna that wouldn't be very gentlemanly of me, I've already given my word to this person that I would accompany them."
Fionna just sighed while Marshall's shoulders shook in laughter.

Gumball was in a meeting to discuss the pros and cons of using sugar as a self sustaining energy source would effect the sugar trade within some of the further regions of his kingdom when pepper walked into the conference room, with a urgent look on her face.
" I'm sorry to intrude your highness, but there is someone requesting your presence and I'm hard-pressed to agree that you come see them right away. "
" Yes of course Pepper, excuse me gentlemen, this meeting will be adjourned, and be picked up around 8 am, tomorrow please do not be late, you are dismissed."
He stood up and followed after the tiny, speeding walking maid.
" Pepper I have to say that your urgency in worrying me slightly, what exactly is going on here?"
" Well, I can answer that."
Gumball looked up started at the new voice. He looked into a pair of chocolate brown and blood red eyes, that matched his boyfriend's.
There was a young woman, seemingly not a day over thirty five, floating in his throne room with a slight frown on her face, and a very unhappy looking pet gummy bear on a leash at her side.
" I'm terribly sorry, but I don't believe that we have met, " Gumball reached out for her hand, " I am Prince Gumball of the Candy Kingdom, and you are..? " Gumball let his voice trail off.
" I am Huisonee Abadeer, Queen of the Night-o- sphere and Marshall Lee's mother. "
" I uh well," Gumball could barely compose himself, " Um is Marshall alright?"
" Yes dear, he's just fine, I'm afraid he doesn't know I'm here." She sighed and floated over to a shady spot of the room.
" Well, your majesty what can I do for you?" Gumball asked, always the gentleman.
" Well," Husionee paused, " You can start by explaining why haven't came to meet me."
" I'm sorry I'm not sure I'm understanding, come and meet you?" Gumball asked puzzled.
" Well yes hon, you are after all dating my son." Huisonee stated matter-of-factly.
In that moment many things happened, Pepper gasped, Gumball's eyes widened, Marshall flew into the throne room, eyes blazing red, and Fionna, having just arrived on an magically enlarged Cake screeched.
" What the stuff!"
Gumball still to shocked to say anything just thought.
Oh, honestly, what is my life becoming.
