Getting Over You
It was the next morning, and I woke up to the sun shining right in my eyes when I had just opened them up. I didn’t want to get up or do anything today. I was still in a mood about yesterday–and every time I thought about Marcy, my eyes immediately teared up. There was no way I would get over her anytime soon.
I then heard a knock at the door. I didn’t want anyone to bother me, more or so see what I had looked like at the moment. But I just yelled “Come in!” to whoever knocked anyway. It was Peppermint Butler again. He came in with a tray full of breakfast, which was the classic bacon, eggs, and toast, and a cup of coffee.
“Good morning, princess. I hope you slept well last night.” He said, not too much of a cheery tone, but not so dull either. He placed the tray on the bed, then saw that I was still in a not-so-cheery mood. “You must eat, Princess. It’s good protein for the day.” Pep But told me. I looked at him and slightly smiled. “Thanks, Pep.” I grabbed the tray and placed it on my lap. Pep But bowed and left the room.
I looked down at my breakfast and started to eat the bacon. I loved bacon, so this made me a little bit better.

I got ready for the day. I took a shower and brushed my teeth. Then came back to my room, and tried to decide what to wear. I didn’t feel like wearing my dress today, nor did I want to wear the t-shirt Marceline gave me. So I just pulled out a shirt with a cat face on it and some pink sweatpants. I liked it. It felt more like me.
I went outside for a little bit, I loved being outdoors; seeing the candy people talk and run around. It made me feel good, but I was still very bottled up from my break up yesterday, and I knew that it would be a while till I got over it. But I tried to forget about that for right now and just enjoy this beautiful day.
I walked around a little bit. I loved beautiful days like this; when clouds didn’t cover up the entire sky, or when there were no clouds at all, but when there were multiple clouds scattered around in the sky, slightly moving, I absolutely loved it.
I decided to sit down for a few minutes, just watching the candy people going about their day. Which made me smile, just seeing them happy, made me happy. But I stopped smiling when I saw something in the sky. Only it wasn’t something, it was someone. And that someone was none other than Marceline the Vampire Queen.
“No. No no no.” I stood up and started to freak out. “What is she doing here!?” I asked myself. Marcy spotted me and started to fly down, but as she did, I started running away. “...crap.” the vampire told herself.

I hid myself in my room. I was hoping that Marceline wouldn’t just come to the windowsill or something and see me like this. Then I started to tear up again, until I wiped them away, got up and pulled the blinds. That way Marceline wouldn’t just let herself in. It’d be rude to just come in without asking, but it’s different with Marcy. She would always come in as she liked, without asking–which I was okay with, but that was before. Right now I didn’t even wanna see Marceline.
But Marcy being Marcy, she went through the window anyway. Even with the blinds shut. I looked over when I heard her knock on the side of the window, no no no no no, I thought. She couldn’t stand being around Marcy right now.
“Peebs, about what I did yesterday…” she started, “I’m so so sorry.”
“Are you serious? You can just fly here and just apologize. You really hurt me out there, you know!” I was not in the mood for this; tears started forming up again.
“I know, that’s why I wanted to apologize.”
“Well I don’t accept it.” I turned around and crossed my arms.
“Peebs, there’s gotta be something I can do to make up for this. I really do love you and I at least wanna still be friends with you.”
I turned back around slowly, which was a mistake. “W-what are you willing to do?”
“I will do anything. You mean a lot to me, and I still want you in my life, as my best friend.”
My tears formed back in my eyes, and I looked away once more. “Maybe. I’ll think about it.”
Marcy smiled and ran up and hugged me from behind. “Oh my gosh, thank you, Peebs! You don’t know how much this means to me.” I blushed a bit, then turned around to face Marcy so she could hug me back.
Marceline let go and went towards the window, “See you later Bubblegum!” she waved goodbye and flew out. “See ya!” I yelled, and as I watched her fly off, I smiled warmly as tears of joy formed into my eyes.
