Recap: "So (Y/N) would you do me the honour of becoming your boyfriend?"

*********

I still could not believe it. He had asked me to be his girlfriend! During that moment everything felt too good to be true, too surreal. I was still in denial of reality.

You know what they say? If everything seems too perfect, something will go wrong soon. And guess what? It did.

As I gathered my voice to reply to Marshall Lee, who was holding my hand and looking at me with so much affection, we were interrupted - rather rudely, if I might add.

"Marshall Lee! How dare YOU try to take my bride-to-be away from me?! You will pay for this!" Prince Gumball suddenly appeared out of nowhere and scolded Marshall. 

He turned to me, cheeks flaming, "My beloved (Y/N)! Are you okay? What did he do to you?!"

I opened my mouth to say that I was not in need of PG's love but Marshall spoke for me.

"Oi back off, PG. Can you not see that she doesn't want to be with you? Leave her alone."

"SHUT UP, MARSHALL LEE! I LOVE HER. I KNOW SHE WILL MARRY ME. SHE LOVES ME TOO!"

Marshall Lee quirked an eyebrow at PG and smirked, "You sure?"

PG nodded his head vigorously, "Of course."

Marshall's smirk got bigger and he snaked an arm around my waist. I smiled at him.

"(Y/N), come to me, darling!" PG exclaimed.

"Um-" I began but was interrupted.

For a moment, I didn't understand what was happening. But when I did, I realised that Marshall Lee had pecked my lips.

My whole face was burning. My heart was beating too fast, and breathing? What was that?

"MARSHALL! HOW DARE YOU-"

"(Y/N) be my girlfriend, please?" Marshall asked.

And here I stood. Staring between two men, both who liked me.

I had already decided. But I went over everything again.

"PG." I began, "You're a great guy, you really are."

I turned to look at Marshall who didn't look happy at all and his eyes showed hurt, while PG looked elated.

"But." Marshall's eyes softened and PG frowned, "I really like Marshall. I'm sorry but I fear that I cannot marry you."

PG looked shocked, his eyes were wide and looked wet. He sniffled, "It's your choice, dear (Y/N). But I'd say you reconsider."

"It's so sorry. But I have reconsidered. It's Marshall Lee who I want to be with. Please forgive me." I bowed down, sad at how hurt PG looked.

But what could I do? I liked Marshall.

"If he ever hurts you or anything, I'll be ready to marry you, (Y/N). I will always love you." PG mumbled, giving me a sad half smile.

And with that he walked away.

I should have felt bad but I had Marshall Lee, who made me feel happy.

"My answer is yes, Marshall." I smiled at him.

"As expected." He winks and grabs my hand, "Let's dance."

Since we're all ML fangirls, I decided to head the story this way. Buut, if there are any people here who want a PG end as well, then please let me know! I'll write one for him as well.
