My question is, why did the SC have to demand the case itself? I’d have thought the governor’s team would have brought it there the first second that they could.

There are a whole bunch of furlough lawsuits currently making their way through the system. Most haven't even been tried yet, and others are still in the appeals process at a lower level.
Schwarzenegger tried to get the Supreme Court involved earlier to at least consolidate the suits. At that time, the Court seemed to be in no hurry to get them, and refused to get involved.
Now they're asking for the cases?
