Sadie: Do you have a crush on anyone?

MISS U

(this is all I can do hope you like it)

—————————————————————————-

The first time they kissed, Marceline ended up biting Bonnibel’s lip.

"Oh, I’m so sorry" Marceline said, almost panicking but Bubblegum had started laughing. She pressed her hand to her bottom lip and said she was fine, promised they would get better with time.

They did. Soon, kissing came to them as naturally as talking or holding hands did and the first one became a memory to laugh at.

The first ‘I love you’ didn’t go smoothly either, Bubblegum fell and while helping her stand up, Marceline had started giggling so instead of ‘I love you’ she heard ‘why do I love you?” but she didn’t mind, really. They learned to choose better timing eventually.

For a long time after they broke up, Marceline thought of those mistakes as signs they weren’t supposed to be together at all. She told herself that drifting apart wouldn’t have been so easy if they truly loved each other. And she ignored the voice in her head saying it wasn’t easy at all.

The next ‘I love you’ comes years later and it’s muffled by the noise around them but it seems Princess Bubblegum hears it anyway because she smiles like she hasn’t smiled in a long time.

"I still love you too" is her answer and their hands find each other like it’s the easiest thing they know.

They’re watching the stars, when they try to kiss again. They end up bumping foreheads and falling onto the ground, laughing but they try again.

"It’s how we work" Bonnibel says pulling the other girl in closer. "We make mistakes but we try again because we know-"
