Hello all! Here with the great chapter 8! Before we begin, I just wanna say that I'm ever so grateful for the support this story has received so far. To think what started out as an annoyance of not being able to read any kitty smut turned into this! XD.

The Split part 8

With her thoughts so rudely interrupted by the washing machines sudden beeping noise, Nicole quickly retracted her thoughts that were bugging her to much and instead decided that It would be better to leave them alone and be tomorrows problem. Meanwhile, Gumball was in the master bedroom getting comfortable.

Man what's taking mom so long? Gumball thought as he maneuvered his small body all over his parents very large California King mattress. However just as he was beginning to get impatient, the door to the bedroom suddenly opened and in came Nicole who was still in her favorite yellow bathrobe with an expression of discontent on her face.

" There you are mom! I was beginning to think there was a problem with the dryer or something."

" No. Nothing like that honey, the washing machine still had some time left over so I had to wait it out and think about...things." The last part of her statement sparked Gumballs curiosity.

" Things? What kind of things? " Gumball then sat up on the bed looking straight at Nicole while she cursed herself for even saying anything.

" Oh nothing for you to be concerned about sweetie! Just silly subconscious thoughts! " Nicole said in a nonchalant tone while walking towards her side of the bed and reaching out to her alarm clock to set the alarm for 6:30 am.

" Are you sure? After all I am her to help you out. Come on mom you can tell me! " Gumball continued to fix his gaze upon her while sitting criss-cross applesauce and making Nicole a tad bit nervous.

" I um... I don't know. I guess I'm just really not looking forward to going to work tomorrow. " She gave him a sad smile, hoping he would drop the topic.

" Well, I bet a good nights sleep will make you day a little bit more bearable! " Gumball tried to cheer up his mother, but he knew that something was bugging her and even though he wanted to get to the bottom of it, he knew it was best to not force her into a scenario she wasn't comfortable with.

Now that the two of them were finally ready for bed, Nicole slowly untied her yellow bathrobe and and got into bed with her son. While Gumball quickly got under the covers and once again, trying his absolute best not to look at in his eyes, the inimitable treasure that was her body.

" Your right honey, that's what I need. A good..Nights...Rest. " Under the covers now, Nicole pulled Gumball close to her and was surprised when she realized he didn't have a shirt on, allowing her to feel his bear chest up against hers. Gumball on the other hand felt oddly safe and comfortable in Nicole's embrace. Compered to the night before, he couldn't help but purr to the sound of her slow yet tranquil heartbeat as he slowly closed his eyes.

" Good night mom... I love you. "

" I love you two honey, sweet dreams. " Feeling the soft vibrations from his purring, Nicole held her little boy ever so closer. Finally feeling at ease with her fears put to rest, Nicole drifted off into a deep slumber.


(BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP) (SMACK)

Instinctively hitting the alarm clock with her paw, Nicole slowly rose up and looked at the time.

6:30. Welp, time to go make money. She thought to herself while stretching out her arms and letting out a groggy yawn. However, Nicole just couldn't bring herself to get out of bed! Not because she was to tired but because Gumball was still holding onto her, fast asleep with a slight smile on his face.

I could stay like this all day... but knowing that wasn't an option, Nicole got out of bed while being careful not to wake Gumball.

" I'm sorry Gummypuss, but mama's got to go to work. " Nicole whispered as she planted a kiss on Gumballs forehead.

Still completely naked, Nicole made her way downstairs to get there clothes out of the dryer. Sense it was quite early, she figured it would be a good idea to fold them so it wouldn't have to be done at a later date.

Nicole made quick work of everyone's clothes and headed back upstairs to put them all away in everyone's rooms. After she was done with the kids rooms she finally made it back to the master bedroom a put hers and Richard's clothes away. Of course making sure to leave out a shirt and skirt to wear to work.

Looking at herself in the mirror to make sure her clothes fit just right, Nicole then went into her top dresser jour to put on her signature Rainbow Factory button.

" Perfect! Do I have everything? Purse, keys, yup! " Once she concluded that everything was accounted for, Nicole looked at the time to be sure she was still ahead of schedule.

" 7:27? Oh dear I better get going. " But as Nicole was about to leave the room, Gumball called out to her.

" Wait mom... Aren't you gonna say goodbye? " Gumball said rubbing his eyes.

" Oh I'm sorry sweetheart I just didn't want to wake you up. "

" Well you were kind of being noisy and talking pretty load so that didn't really work out for you. But it's the thought that counts I guess... " Nicole laughed and walked over and gave him a kiss on the nose.

" I love you so much Gumball. I'm trusting you to be the man of the house while I'm gone okay? "

" I love you to mom. And I will for sure get up right now so I can fulfill my duty of being the man of the house! "

" Yea yea, i'm sure you will honey. " Nicole headed back downstairs to leave with Gumball following her to say goodbye.

" When do you think you'll be back? "

" I don't know sweetie, Mondays are my worst days so I'll probably call you to let you know. "

" Oh... well... Be careful!

" I will, Bye honey! " Nicole closed the front door behind her but Gumball still waited at the top of stairs to listen for her car to start. Once he heard it, Gumball IMMEDIATELY turned around and jumped back into bed to get a couple more hours of sleep.


It was 11:30 and Gumball was still fast asleep, However he suddenly woke up in a fright when he heard the doorbell ring. Sluggishly getting up to go see who it was, Gumball figured it would be wise to see who it was before answering the door and to his surprise, it was Mr. Robinson! Gumball quickly opened the door to greet the wonderful man.

" Good morning Mr. Robi- "

" Hey kid I just wanted to ask you something that's been bugging me lately. "

" Uh... O-okay what is it? "

" Well, a few days ago I saw that monst- I mean your mother kick your dad out. And I was wondering if hes... well you know, gone for good? "

" That? Oh no! My parents are just splitting up for a week or so to take a break that's all. "

" Ugh. That's unfortunate. "

" Yea its pretty sad. I'm hoping my mom will forgi- "

" No like, its unfortunate hes not gone for good. " Mr. Robinson said, as he began to sadly waddle off with pure disappointment on his face.

" I-I uh...Well, Bye Mr. Ro- "

" Yea Yea. Whatever kid. " After Gaylord left, Gumball closed the door with a confused expression on his face.

" An interesting start to the day I guess. " Gumball looked around and tried to figure out what he was going to all day by his lonesome. He figured you cant start the day on an empty stomach! Going into the kitchen to serve himself a bowl of his favorite ARL-O's cereal, Gumball planned out his day, but he would soon realize planning a day all alone wasn't as easy as it sounded.

Several long hours had passed while Gumball was doing his best to preoccupy himself. He tried to watch T.V. but since it was Monday, there's was absolutely nothing on that sparked his interest. While he was mindlessly browsing through the channels desperate to find something to watch, the telephone rang. And sense Gumball was trying to find anything to pass the time, he quickly jumped up to answer it.

" Hello? "

" Hey sweetie it's me. "

" Oh hey mom! What's wrong? You sound really upset. "

" Well, I just wanted to call and let you that I'm gonna be getting home late tonight. Probably around 7 or so. " Gumball immediately knew by the tone of Nicole's voice, that she was not having a good day at all.

" Oh...Well that really stinks. I was hoping when you came home we could spend a little more time together..."

" I know sweetheart and I'm really sorry, today just hasn't been a good day for me so far at a- " Suddenly Gumball could hear in the background someone yelling at her, making him even more saddened.

" Mom what's going on? "

" I'm really sorry Gumball but I really have to go! I love you! "

" I love y- " Before Gumball could even respond, the phone had already been hung up forcing him to listen to the buzz from the phone which got him thinking about what Nicole was going through.

" Poor mom, I-I cant believe she's already having a horrible day...And here I am, complaining about there not being anything good to watch on T.V. while moms out there working her tail off. " Gumball was disappointed in himself. There was nothing he could do to make her day better. Until... An interesting idea popped in his head.

" Hmm. I can't make the day better, but I bet I could make the night worth all the trouble! " Gumball quickly hung up the phone and made his way into the kitchen and opened up the freezer.

" Where is it... Ah ha! " Pulling out a large premium fish or more specifically, a Large Salmon fillet that Nicole bought a little over a week ago. Gumball was going to make a fantastic premium dinner for her when she returned home from work! How he was going to cook it though was another issue however...

" I guess I didn't think this far. How the heck am I gonna cook this thing?! " Staring at the frozen fish with a gaze so intense it began to defrost, other idea slipped it's way into his head.

" Ah I know! " quickly rummaging through the cabinets in the kitchen, Gumball found a cook book Richard had bought at a yard sale named ' Cooking for dummies '.

" This will do. I mean, how hard could this be? " Looking at the time now, Gumball concluded he had just the right amount of time to cook before Nicole got home.

" 4:36, that should be plenty of time to get everything ready. " As time passed, Gumball was hard at work learning what the book was telling him to do. Getting some ingredients out to make a rub, he was having a lot more problems understanding what the book was telling him to do then he initially anticipated.

" What the what? It said not to pinch to much salt but to still pinch with confidence... What the heck does that even mean?! " Gumball began to get a little flustered. For a book that was for dummies, it sure seemed like it was actually Algebra 3.

" Aww man... I hope this is enough to make her feel better. " After a couple hours of reading and preparations, the meal was finally ready to be put to cook.


After eleven hours of boring and agonizing work, Nicole was finally able to head home. Clocking out felt like heaven to her even though she knew very well tomorrow would be another painful work day.

What a stress inducing day. Nicole thought as she unlocked her car to finally head on home. On the way home, Nicole was so incredibly exhausted that rumble strips on the road were the only thing keeping her eyes open!

I'm so tired yet so hungry, I really wish I wasn't forced to skip my lunch break... I suppose I could at least make myself a sandwich or something before heading to bed.

Pulling up to the driveway now. Nicole got out of the car and stretched her aching bones. But before she even took a single step, Nicole got a whiff of something that smelt so good it made her even more hungry.

Oh no that smell! I have to eat something now otherwise my stomachs gonna eat itself! Thinking it was one of the neighbors cooking something scrumptious, Nicole walked to the house. To her surprise however, the irresistible smell only got stronger and more potent as she got closer to the front door.

Wh-what? did Gumball make dinner? Nicole opened the door and slowly walked over to the kitchen were she found Gumball putting a plate of food on the table.

" Hey mom! Welcome home! It really hurt me to know that you had such a horrible day at work, so I thought I could at least make your night enjoyable! " Gumball said, as he pulled out a chair for Nicole while she just stood there next to her plate of food with absolute astonishment on her face. Nicole was so surprised in fact, the feeling of fatigue and hunger was no longer present in her mind.

" You... You did this for me? " warm tears began to full Nicole's eyes while Gumball stood in front of her with probably the warmest smile she had ever witnessed.

" Yea, it was the least I could do. You just work so hard so I hoped you coming home to a warm meal might make you happy and relieve some of your stress! "

More and more tears began to run down her face, as Nicole knelt down to eye level with Gumball staring at him not knowing what to say.

" Mom... Please don't be sad. I want to make you happy that's all. " Gumball placed his right paw on her cheek wiping away a few tears. Wanting to comfort her more, he gave here a much needed hug. Nicole let it all out, crying over Gumballs shoulder now, letting the frustrations from work slowly leave her body as her little boy held her tight.

" Thank you... Gummypuss... For everything..." She couldn't take it anymore... Nicole let her deepest thought take control of her, holding him by the shoulders, she slowly inched closer to his face, feeling his soft breaths in her face.

" I-Its okay m-mom! Really! " Gumball was a bit unfamiliar with this feeling, he had never seen his mother act this way before. Resting her forehead on his, Nicole closed her eyes and let her body take control.

" M-mom? Wh-what are you do- " Before he could even finish his sentence. Nicole had pressed her lips against his own. Her tough already exploring an uncharted paradise, Gumball was completely caught off guard. With his eyes wide open now and not knowing how to feel, or what to do, Gumball began to instinctively join her in the feeling of a lifetime. Slowly closing his eyes and holding her close.

However, it didn't take long for Gumball to run out of air. Trying to pull his lips away from hers, Nicole bit his lower lip in a desperate attempt to taste him just a little bit longer. However, after he winced at the slight pain. Nicole quickly regained her senses and pulled away from him.

" Oh no! I'm so sorry honey I-I don't know what got into me! A-are you okay? " Gumball didn't say anything. He just touched his lower lip with his paw and looked at it.

" That...That was...Amazing mom... " Nicole looked at Gumball with hunger in her eyes. Not for the premium salmon. But for him.

Sorry for this chapter being all over the place. I just felt that this being the ice break chapter, I wanted it to be a little unique. But anyway! I hope you enjoyed it! And see you next time! On a side note, this Covid-19 thing is getting pretty bad. With that being said, I urge y'all to be careful out there!
