Valentine's Day at the Candy Kingdom

* Bubblegum wasn't one for Valentine's day until she heard voices coming from the darkness of her Research Lab. "Who's there?" Marceline! Bubbline Bubblegum x Marceline

For Bubblineandpandas:

Happy Valentine's day, A!

"Don't want to close my eyes, don't wanna fall asleep because I miss you baby and i don't wanna miss a thing." ~ Don't wanna miss a thing.

I love you A.

- M.

Bubblegum stood at her balcony, looking down at her subjects. It was february 14, a day marked in the land of ooo as a day to buy the one you love something, to cherish them, and show them you love them.

Bubblegum didn't believe in love. Well she believed in love for others just not herself. Bonnie was a genius and had no time for a boyfriend or girlfriend. She sighed looking at cinnamon bun hand gumdrop girl candy flowers. The blue gumdrop girl's face lit up bright red.

Bonnie really envied the naivety of the candy people. They were all so ignorantly happy and blissfully enjoying gifts of sweets. Secretly, Bonnie wished she was dumb for a day.

She knew what love was made out of. A simple chemical in the brain causing infatuation. The chemical starts pumping throughout the brain and in return the brain sends waves to cause sweaty hands and blushing cheeks.

It was nothing more than a chemical and still Bonnie wanted a little of that. She turned around and looked back into her pink room. Peppermint Butler was shoveling gifts into a large pile. Her suitors never failed to give her a mountain of chocolates, flowers, and teddy bears every year.

She took one last glance at her subjects then walked back inside.

"Do you need help, Peppermint Butler?" Bubblegum asked,politely seeing the peppermint citizen begin to sweat.

"No Princess. Go enjoy the day. I have everything under control here." Peppermint butler assured and he dove a candy cane shovel further into the gifts.

Pb nodded and walked out of her room. She kept an eye out for any suitors. They were the last thing she wanted to see right now. She continued to walk, No destination in mind only walking.

She smiled as she realized her clouded mind had lead her to her beloved science lab. This was the spot where Bonnie spent 75% percent of her time. She found clarity in discovering new things and in there she was in her own world. Bubblegum opened the white door and grabbed a lab coat from a rack.

Bubblegum spent the rest of the daytime mixing nerawns and yuhans together. Bags began to form under her eyes as time ticked away and every once and a while her eyes would slowly close.

Bonnie felt her mouth widen into a yawn and she placed her viles back on the tray. She scribbled out a quick bullet point on soft white paper.

Except for a lamp, the room was in complete darkness. Bubblegum stretched out her arms and cracked her back. She slowly stood to her feet and grabbed the vies.

She traveled lightly to a testing rack and set the tray carefully next to an areibalsa plant she had been working on the other day.

Bubblegum stripped off her lab coat and through hanged it back on it's coat rack. She smelled her armpit and got an awful smell. She scrunched up her face and put her arm back down to her side.

"Disgusting.." Bubblegum mumbled tiredly to herself. She pushed open the door to her lab and stepped out. Bonnie looked back at her lab and smiled.

"Will you be my valentine..?" She asked to her lab equipment. She was answered with silence.

"..I'll take that as a yes. Same time tomorrow then?" Bubblegum said, sarcastically to herself as her smile played wider. She turned around about ready to shut the door when she heard a voice.

"If you want to." A voice replied from the darkness and Bubblegum jumped back in shock.

"Who's there?!" Bubblegum shouted and quickly turned on the light. The room lit up and Bonnie's eyes stung but she forced them to stay open. No one answered and Bubblegum stepped further back in her lab. Her lab was empty. Not a thing was disturbed. She felt chills on her arms.

"Hello..?" She called and still no one answered.

"I'm going insane.." Bubblegum sighed and shut the light back off. She shut the door and swore when the door clicked she heard a voice whisper 'Good night'. Pb didn't investigate though she rationalized it as lack of sleep.

To bad she was wrong.
