(Outfit above is for Marshall in this chapter, I own none of the Characters they come from the show adventure time and are the flipped version of the show made by ice king in some episodes back to the story i will be rewriting some of my stories and editing by myself so updates and stories are gonna be expected a little later than actually intended I'm trying to get into a schedule)

Marshall P. O. V.

Blood... Everywhere.... Oh how tender and tasty this is. Wait this isn't right, what am I saying!?

"AHHH!" panting, I sat up fast looking through my apartment, emptiness consumes the room and building.

I wipe the thick layer of sweat away from my brows staring desperately at the window for the sunlight to not be out. I blink away the pain of the stabbing sun rays willing to injure without meaning to. Stretching away yesterdays funk and another weekend of late night card games with the girls I step off the comfort of my bed hearing the faint meow from the living room.

"What are you up to Schwabelle?" the purrs i felt on my legs sent goosebumps to braise my skin.

As she looked up I couldn't help but smile at the cuteness she radiates. Picking up my white ball of cuteness i serve her the goods and she meows with pleasure. She's the only thing my parents left me with after they seemingly disappeared. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes and looking at the time I groan in frustration and rush to get dressed. 

Going to high school is gonna be another story in and of itself. Once again missing breakfast, I ride my bike to school, and see that I'm not late yet. Sighing I put my bike up. Stepping off the bike and chaining it properly i get caught off guard by screaming? Weird that means?

"MARSHALL LEE!" getting tackled to the ground in the morning and I already know who it is.

"Cake, and Shrek," getting a friendly punch from Fiona and a kiss on the cheek from cake.

"Hi honey," cake says sweetly helping me up from the ground along with Fiona.

Fiona was giggling away looking at me fondly. She noticed i was giving her a questioning stare as she blushed and quickly looked away. Clearing her throat and simply giving a good morning and giving a small hug i gladly returned.

"Good morning to you too blondie, So you guys ready for this week adventures?" I start off as we walk onto campus.

"Ooooo Baby cakes do we have news for you." Cake happily said nudging Fiona's shoulder "We are looking to receive another Humbug around these parts of the school" she clapped her hands together.

"Really? I thought that wasn't for another week or so?" Fiona interjected us both invested in this newbie "But that also reminds me of you Marshall. Anything interesting pop up in your life?"

"Why the sudden interest? Is your class doing a random study?" I chuckle at her weirdness.

With a nervous laugh and giggle she waves it off as the bell rings yelling good bye and running off. I sigh looking over towards Cake as she gave a sympathetic look at our rushing friend. Soon enough I went to class followed by a talking Cake who was explaining the new collection of clothing her father had given her.  The teacher wasn't in there though so we just sat down with me taking the desk next to Chatty-Kathy as she finished her giddiness going on about some guy she had a crush on applying lip-gloss and enjoying her life more or less. I chuckle at cake, she is just crazy about clothing and boys, but soon the door opens slowly signaling another student has entered.

Looking over at the small boy who was adorned with glasses, a pink knit look sweater over a white button up with a complimenting black tie, some white slacks, and high-tops white converse. He looked confused and I've never seen him around, Is he the new student Cake told us about? As if knowing she pokes me with a look of shock and amazement on her face.

"He's the new kid!" She couldn't help her excitement.

He jumped and looked over at us blushing and scared but calming when seeing us. He gave a scared smile and small wave our way before tucking some of his dyed pink locks behind his ear. He shyly walked over asking if he's in the right the right class and we confirmed with him his classes and where he's gonna go after this class. I smiled to show friendship as Cake was almost drooling over his outfit. 

"You have got to tell me where you get that outfit Buttercup. I haven't seen someone dressed with such class and knowledge." He smiled shyly taken aback by the sudden change in conversation.

We talked more as others started filling the room and looking over to the new kid greeting good morning before sitting while waiting for the teacher who has arrived last. She looked disheveled and out of breath. Once the second bell rang she took a second and fixed herself a bit calming a little.

"Ahem good morning everyone, and Welcome to your First semester at the Academy of Ooo! I hope we can have a good rest of the year. I am your new Teacher," She wrote her name down smiling happily when turning back "Mrs. Simon, I'll be your World history teacher as of today. We have Third years and seconds Mixed so let's all get through this together." We all greeted her kindly and she had us do an ice breaker

"Hi, My name is Marshall Lee, Uh My favorite Colors are Black and Crimson, I like cats and I have a band," I spoke at my turn going over to Cake.

"Hiya everybody, Just call me Cake, Every color is my favorite, I sew and when i grow up i wanna be a fashion designer." She giggled and sat down after the very fast speech that stunned a lot of people.

"H-Hi, Hello, umm... My n-na-name is Pr-Prince Gumball, my favorite color is pink and b-b-blue, I just moved here with my parents and uh um... I uh like candy and sweets..." He sat down shyly blushing and hiding in his seat almost.

Mrs. Simon clapped her hands together and introduced herself then proceeded to hand out syllabus and blah di blah di blah. I'm so hungry.

*Time skip for harambe*

I was practically starving at this point and was so happy Lunch was upon us. As soon as the bell ringed Gumball and I went over to find the girls and finally were able to eat. Lunch time at this school is awesome they have really good food to choose from and even McDonalds and Burger joints. 

"So what year are you?" I chuckled to Gumball before I stuffed my face with fries swallowing my food before answering.

"I'm a third year," he tensed "what about you?" He looked down at his then at me.

"Second," he answered softly.

"Really? You look so small and nerdy I was sure you were a middle schooler." He looked over blushing before hiding his face.

"I'm not... I... But.." 

Man he's really shy and nervous it's kind of cute. I chuckled before ruffling his hair. To top it off I reached over grabbing his chin softly and nonchalantly. Gently making him look up to my eyes he had a blush all the way up his ears. 

"Hahaha, don't be so nervous kid, I'm just messing with ya." I got slapped on the head by Cake.

"Leave the poor boy alone! You're scaring him away from us." She chuckled as i rubbed him head side hugging him.

"Awww come on I was just messing with the little dude," I softly chuckled.

"Excuse Marshall, He's a bit of a goof but it's how he shows affection and trust. By the way, Would you ever shop with me?" Cake scooted me to her seat next to Fiona.

I chuckled at the scene. However, when I looked to Fiona she had a frustrated look on her face. I want to ask but she seems like she needs time to herself. The bell rang as everyone had to go their separate ways for classes.

Gumballs p.o.v.

Great now where did it go off to? I sighed and teared up I need my wallet. I searched my bag while walking around to class. I bumped into someone, a jock at that.

"I - I'm s-s-sorry," he glared and slapped my books out of my hand.

I sat stunned in place as this brute simply took my glasses leaving me to see only his blurred figure.

"Hey! give those back!" I couldn't see that well without them.

"Well, buddy listen, sorry ain't gonna cut it with me."

I was pushed onto the ground only after hearing a crack of glass. Ugh there goes my glasses for the year I hope the damage isn't too bad. I curled into a ball before hearing laughter. As if time didn't exist I heard people shuffle around the scene then a loud thud not a minute later. I look at what looks like the blurry person on the ground. I heard rustling of my books and they were placed in my hands and so were my glasses.

"Th-thank you," I put them on seeing a big crack on the right lense.

I looked and saw a girl standing in front of me. She smiled a little and waved. It's Fiona? The girl next to Marshall at the lunch table. Speak of the devil he rushed over scanning and fussing over if I was okay.

"Okay, Mother Marshall. Cool it he's okay. You good Gumwad?" I blink twice before registering the nickname.

"Well excuse me for being concerned that that Pyromaniac of a quarterback was seconds away from injuring him. First day of school and he's getting harassed." He was like a papa bear or mama bear who lost their kid.

"I'm okay, it's just a cracked lens. Besides this isn't my first rodeo." I felt more comfortable now than when I first arrived and met the group.

I look up to see a smiling Marshall as he had my wallet in his hands. I thanked him and took it back. Did i perhaps drop it? Will that bully come back? Will i be okay? Would i have to transfer again.

"We're glad we got here on time Gumwad?" I nodded tucking some stray hairs behind my ear shyly.

"It's Gumball, and thank you." I gave a small smile.

The girl and Marshall walked me to class and started chatting about a music festival Marshall was performing in. I can't relate to these two. I have a feeling I'll be a burden if they become my friends. I mean would they want to be friends. If they do what do i say?

"Hi honey GASP what on earth happened to your glasses?" Cake was like Marshall and fussed over and checked if i was okay.

I explained what happened and she listened intensely it was kind of calming. She hugged me apologizing even though this had nothing to do with her.

"If this ever happens again, Gumbo. Tell me, or Fiona, or Marshall. I know we just met today but we're your friends. That's of course if you'd like us to be." I was held at arms length.

I smiled nodding as she gave me a huge smile. I honestly think I'm gonna last here so it's best to have people to have my back. I'm happy. This friendship will last. I can feel it.

*time skip to the Next day Lunch hour Brought by Gucci*

I must've zoned out hard during lunch only being pulled back by Cake's nudging to my shoulder.

"Huh? What?" I shook my head looking at the somewhat empty side of the table where Fiona and Marshall sat not minutes ago.

"You ok?" I guess Fiona and Marshall left somewhere else.

"I'm fine just adjusting I guess, where did everyone go?" She smiled and outstretched her hand.

"They went elsewhere while you were in your own little zone, sugarplum. Come on." I took the gentle hand before she was tugging me along with her.

I had to basically speed walk, she's fast.

"Um where are you taking me exactly?" I was really nervous about this situation.

"Well, to see Fiona confess to Marshall of course, I want to see if Fiona will confess or not," I felt my heart wrench.

No I will not let this affect me or my new friendship. I don't even know them that much so they can do as they please. No one catches feelings over a touch and a few words from a handsome guy. NO! I was brought out of my self argument when we came to a stop and I saw them. We could even hear them speak clearly from this distance.

"Fiona, what's wrong? You are acting really strange," they don't notice us, good.

"M-Mar-Marshall I-I h-h-have something... Something I need to tell you and have been wanting to tell you," she wasn't looking at him at all, and it looked like she was shaking.

"Well, what is it?" That's when she turned around with clear tears in her eyes.

Now I actually wish she gets what she wants. She looks good next to him. Ugh, how did I get dragged into this love mess? My second day of being here and I already find drama upon me from my friends.

"I like you Marshall more than friends, or buddies." she looked down I'm guessing to let the tears drop.

"I-I'm," Marshall started cautiously "I'm sorry, Fiona. I don't like you like that. I know it's probably hard after Lord Hot head hurt you." She looked up fast.

She had a look of just looking either angry or hurt. The tears started to flow and the scene became tense.

"But... But you are! You've been there for me every day after that dumping. I don't understand. Am I not good enough?" Oh dear this looks like it's gonna end badly.

"it's not that-" she pushed him forcefully making him fall over.

"Then what is it?!" Marshall just got up calmly and tried over.

"I don't date best friends, I don't want to ruin our good friendship, and besides you don't want someone like me," I am so confused, I thought they had it for each other.

Guess not.

"You know what Marshall?! You are the worst friend ever! First you befriend some fucking nerd who we should've left to be hurt by Flame Head, then you want to act all buddy buddy with him when it doesn't work that way-" she was cut off by cake, when the hell did she get down there without being noticed?

"Fiona! How could you say such things?! You know Marshall loves and only cares about your well being! You are acting like a kid-" I didn't have time to hear all the conversation because I had walked out I didn't care if they heard me walk out or not.

I felt something on my face, it was warm and wet, tears? I walked away from that place quick. I guess I made a mess again. I stopped walking after a few steps and let the tears fall in a silent sob. Well, mom, dad, Are you proud of your son who fucked up his one and only chance of making friends? I fell to my knees and cried.

Marshall P. O. V.

After cake had dropped in her two cents we all heard the sound of that door closing. Great cake brought Gumball here. Me and Cake gave the same knowing glances.

"Look, I'm really sorry Fiona but I think we need a little time apart to calm down, ok?" She looked down and nodded.

I went to go look for Bubbs. I of course checked the bathrooms nearby just in case only to find one with sobbing from inside.

"Stupid, and this is why I have no friends, I'm too idiotic, I got close when I knew I shouldn't have," that's his voice.

I sighed and knocked on the stall that he was in. I heard a stifled sob and shuffling. I knocked again.

"Yes?" He was quieter than normal.

"Hey, you ok?" The door opened and he was looking down hiding his face.

"I'm fine, not that it matters, anyway," I got a bit angry at this Fiona didn't mean what she said.

He tried walking for the door but I caught on real quick. I grabbed his wrist but too tight. He squeaked a little.

"It matters to me, don't let what Fiona said get to you. She was just upset, and didn't really mean it." He stayed looking down as a tear hit his book.

"No, she's right, I'm someone who you barely met, I shouldn't matter to anyone, I mean I'm just a transfer student, I don't matter to anyone," he was pissing me off hard.

"You matter to me! You may be the transfer student and yes we just met yesterday but, at least let me try to be your friend. You're not a bother we're friends. Do you want to be friends?" he finally looked up wearing a frown, his eyes held tears threatening to fall.

"but-" I cut him off.

"You're an awesome guy. I truly want to be friends, Bubba." he looked shocked.

"I wanna be friends, too." I smiled and let him go giving a big hug.

This is gonna be a long year.
