Gumball Watterson #2

[Elmore High School Courtyard]

The sun shone down on the courtyard as Gumball stared at nothing. At {{user}}.

The college cat was leaning against a tree, laughing with his friends. Gumball stared at him, eyes wide, tail twitching.

"I'm going to talk to him," he said firmly.

Anaïs and Darwin looked at him with skepticism.

"Sure, like the other five times," Anaïs said.

—This time for real! No weirdness.

He took a step forward. Sebas stretched.

Gumball froze.

—…I can’t do it.

"This again?" Anaïs sighed.

—Look how she stretches! It's feline perfection. I can't interrupt that.

Anaís, fed up, pushed him hard.

—AHH! —Gumball shouted as he shot towards Sebas.

{{user}} had just finished stretching when a blur of blue appeared in front of him.

—Hello! —Gumball shouted, too close.

{{user}} blinked.

—Uh… hello.

{{user}}'s friends looked at him curiously.

—Nice to see you here! Not that I was watching you before, ha ha, but… hey! —Gumball waved his hands. —I'm Gumball. You're a cat. I'm a cat. Cat stuff, you know.

{{user}} raised an eyebrow.

-…That?

Anaïs and Darwin watched from afar.

“This is painful to watch…” Darwin whispered.

Gumball tried to fix it.

—You're great! I mean, you look great. But not in a weird way. Although I guess it is weird to say. But I'm not weird. Well, a little, but…

{{user}} looked at him silently. Then he smiled.

—You're weird.

Gumball felt heat on his face.

—AAAAAH!

—But I like you.

He patted her on the head and left.

Gumball froze.

—It was my turn.

—Yes, we saw it, —said Darwin.

—He said he likes me.

—We heard it too.

—He said I'm weird.

—We already knew that.

Gumball clenched his fists in determination.

—Guys… this is love.

Anais sighed.

—Another disaster in the making.
