Chapter 9

MARCELINE

I watched Marshall fall, stop, and catch Gumball. He fell again. But this time, he wasn't awake. I heard the dead splash as they hit the water; Marshall still curled protectively around Gumball. I didn't hear Bonnibel's strict instructions; all I heard was my shrill scream pierce the air. My best friend, for the longest time, terminally unconscious and currently is sinking slowly to the bottom of the ocean. I have to go get him. I ran towards the water's edge, and shot myself up into the air. Stopping midair, I fell into the ocean, after gathering my bearings, I found Marshall, saw him sinking, and anger welled up in me. That BITCH! How dare she?! Marshall was still curled protectively around Gumball, and for a second, they both looked peaceful. Was this how it would be when one of them died? The other would go willingly?

I don't have time to think about that now though; I needed to save my best friends. I swam over to them, and making sure I didn't disturb Gumball, grabbed Marshall under his arms and kicked upwards. My kick sent us skyward, and as soon as we were at a safe enough altitude where I know that if I dropped their wet bodies they wouldn't die on impact. I hovered a few feet just above the golden shore before dropping them softly onto it. As soon as they made contact with the ground, Bonnibel took out the first aid kit and began attending to them, she administrated CPR by pushing up and down steadily on their chests to relieve them of the water, and she started working on Gumball first.

"Why aren't you working on Marshall?" I asked, dropping down next to him, and Bonnibel looked up at me with a frantic look in her eyes.

"Because he's made of sugar, and what does sugar do in water?" Holy. Glob. No.

"It melts." I whispered sadly, and she nodded and pumped his chest more furiously.

After a few more pumps, Gumball shot up like a rocket, took a second to gather his bearings and frantically looked around for Marshall whom Bonnibel was now working on.

"Marshall!" He yelled, dragging himself over to where Marshall lies on the sand "What the glob just happened?!"

"I don't know," The Flame Princess said, lacing her arms around Gumball's neck. How. Dare. She.

"HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW?!" I yelled at her, my hands curling into fists "YOU GAVE MARSHALL SOME SORT OF DRINK THAT MADE HIM LIKE THAT AND THEN YOU PUSHED GUMBALL OFF THAT CLIFF!" That did it. I lunged at her, pushing her off of Gumball and we fell in a crumpled heap as Bonnibel frantically started working on Marshall, whose breathing had just become barely detectable by what Gumball was shouting.

"HE'S NOT GONNA MAKE IT!" I heard him yell, and I punched the flaming bitch harder.

"I SWEAR IF MARSHALL DIES I'LL KILL YOU!" Bonnibel finally pulled me off of the now unconscious royal pain. She pulled me by the wrist over to where Marshall lies on the now wet compacted sand.

"Look, we stabilized him, he'll be fine, ok?" She said wrapping her arms around me as tears started to fall from my eyes.

"We'll get him to the castle ok? We'll put him in the hospital wing and Gumball and I will work on getting him better. I promise." And with that, Bonnibel called the carriage back, and we sat laid him down on one of the carriage benches, with his head in Gumball's lap.

I prayed to everything that I ever believed in that he would be ok as I rested my head on my hand and closed my tired eyes.

MARSHALL

All I heard was frantic conversation, I couldn't make out any words, or recognize any voices. I couldn't understand what was happening. Why can't I open my eyes? They're so heavy, aren't I supposed to be at the beach with everyone else? I feel kind of dizzy, what the hell? I try to twitch my fingers, something, anything that will tell me something, some sort of story what happened. I yelled at myself mentally to get it together and move my fingers, and after some time, I achieved my goal. The frantic conversation soon quieted down to silent sobs and I felt some tears on my hand. Was someone holding it? I moved my fingers again, and the person sobbing gasped.

"M-Marshall?" the person holding my hand asked. I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn't they were still too heavy. I wonder if I can speak. To test it, I tried to open my mouth to form words, but couldn't even do that. I twitched my fingers again.

"Marshall! Oh thank glob you're awake!"

Wait. I know this voice. Gumball?

"Marshall, if you can hear me move your fingers again." He was holding my hand in a death grip, and I moved my fingers once more, and as soon as I felt him squeeze back in response, he was gone. The warmth of his hand was missing, and a part of me felt incomplete as it slowly faded away. Soon I felt that exact same warmth that was on my hands now on my face. "Glob Marshall, please open your

eyes."He begged quietly, and I felt him lean his forehead against mine. I tried so hard, but I couldn't. And as fate, that stupid bitch, would have it, Gumball's fiancée walked in and I felt Gumball's warm forehead leave mine.

"Bubba." She said, and I immediately hated her for using his name in front of me, "What are you doing?!"

"What does it look like I'm doing?" He asked, and there was so much hatred in his voice I inwardly smiled.

"Well stop doing it and come here. My mother and father are here and wish to meet you."

"No." He said.

"What?"

"I said no." Gumball said, and I cursed his stupidity, she's a dangerous person. I suddenly felt Gumball's on me, his legs straddling my hips. Oh shit. Gumball, what are you doing?

"Leave him now." The Flame Princess said, anger creeping into her tone.

"Who made you the boss of me?" He asked, and I felt his chest against mine.

"I'll have you know that I am you fiancée and demand that you move away from that sad excuse of a Vampire now." I heard her foot stomp. Sad excuse? I'll show you sad excuse when I wake up you bitch.

"You can't make me." He said, and kissed me. My eyes shot open, and I saw Gumball on top of me. He looked really pale, the natural rosy pink in his face is now a pale baby pink. I couldn't think of any reason why, just that he was on top of me. I groaned and I soon found myself on top of Gumball, and he opened his eyes, shock and love written in them.

"Hey," I breathed smiling, and Gumball just leaned up to kiss me once more. The Flame Princess made a sound of indignation and I looked over my shoulder at her."Do you mind? I'd like to kiss my boyfriend senseless and possibly more but with you standing there, I can't really do that." She glared at me and stomped out of the room, slamming the door behind her.

I got off of Gumball and walked to the door, locking it behind her. After that I walked back to the narrow bed Gumball was lying on, and topped him once more.

"Now, where were we?" I purred.
