"Why are we like this?" (A fern x reader story)

chapter 3

☆~~~~Ferns POV~~~~☆

I let out a sigh as I made it back to the treehouse, back to the home I felt the worst at. It was just a house filled with fake memories, stolen dream, and lost hopes. Ah jeez, I sound like a real gumwad.

I shook my head and headed into the home, hearing the joyous laughter upstairs from I assume is in the kitchen. Finn and Jake. My...'brothers' in a sense. I know y/n told me I could invite them but, did I really want the attention to turn on them?....No! No, I was the hero. I saved the day today, it's my party. So I should be getting all the attention tonight. They'll just be faces in the crowd. Yeah, I'll invite them. Who knows of they even wanna go anyway?

"Hey dudes." I spoke to the two, poking my head out from the hole on the ladder.

Finn and Jake were playing video games, stopping their game as Finn got up and went over to me with an excited look. I hated it.

"Fern you're back! How'd it go with the flower kingdom, beat any monsters?" He questioned, digging into my life.

"Save any princesses?" Jake chuckled, always making some sort of ladies comment.

"Well...yes and yes?" I climbed the ladder fully and stood infront of them with a smug grin, "I actually saved the kingdom from this giant hungry caterpillar! The princess is throwing me a party and you guys are invited to come along if you want." I finished, feeling great about my bragging.

"Woah!" They both exclaimed and started to compliment me, saying congrats and good job! It felt good. I deserved this kind of praise.

They, of course, accepted the invitation. Wanting to see my party and see me be seen as a hero that they hoped I would become. I gotta admit, its a bit of thanks to Finn for hooking me up with this kingdom. I even get to see a beautiful princess....fuck. I should dress up a bit! I wanna look my best for my princess. Maybe she'll even reward me with a smooch....

The thoughts made my face hot as I excused myself from the hyped up bros, heading to the bathroom as I splash myself with water. "Calm down Fern, you just met them. You shouldn't be all gummed up like this already." I scolded myself, taking a deep breath and sighing. Well not really since I'm grass but, you get it.

"Why shouldn't we feel this way? We deserve a princess. Finn dated multiple and got a shit ton of kisses. It should be OUR turn now. She never kissed him before or anything, she'll be the perfect princess for us."

My eyes glowed yellow as I stared in the mirror, the grass demon in my bod speaking to me once more. I hated the damn thing, but without it. I wouldn't be here. So I'm stuck with the bastard for now.

"NnnnnnO!" I growled out, shaking my head and clutching at my hat for a little before looking in the mirror once more. My eyes back to normal, "I'm not like ice king, doing stuff like that is...is bad. I'm not bad. I will show you, I'll show everyone I'm a good boy." I huffed, glaring at my reflection before taking off my hat, placing it in my backpack. My long hair exposed with little flowers amongst it, I remembered y/n's words about hearing from the flowers to keep herself updated with all of Ooo. I smiled a little and grabbed one, kissing the petals softly and whispering to it. "I'll earn your love soon,
