Do I really have malware on my Android tablet?

The Malwarebytes app scanned my tablet for malware and told me that "GoogleCalendarPluginService" was an infection. The weird thing was, there were TWO "GoogleCalendarPluginService"s on my apps list. Both of them were listed as malware. One was from com.android.calendar.server and the other was from com.clouds.server. I can't uninstall either of them. I think it's because they're both system apps. Help me please! Thank you.

It is a false positive only because of the permissions it has.
I also use Malwarebytes so I am familiar with it.

Exactly what AndroidHabit said it is a false positive. Nothing to worry about. Nice that your keeping your eye on security however :)

Dare I say I'm a newbie. Having same problem. "com.clouds.server" shows up as malware and doesn't allow me to uninstall with DU Speed booster security. Tried AVG Antivirus and it says I'm protected. Getting unwanted pop-ups. Advice? KISS :)

Thank you to all who replied! Since I apparently can't get rid of these thingies, and since two of you told me it was a false positive, I'm not going to worry about it anymore. Thank you once again for taking the time to answer my question!
