I walk around outside, shivering. Holy globs, it's cold!
I cross my arms and shove them in my armpits.
"Why the grip-grap is it so cold?" I whine. I can see my breath.
Suddenly I feel someone sitting next to me, their body against mine, lending me their body heat.
Slowly, I turn my head. It's a girl. I cock my head at her.
She's PINK. Pinker than pink...and...she smells like bubblegum.
She's pretty...
She smiles at me.
"Hi," she says. The snow sticks in her eyelashes. Her pink eyelashes! Who has pink eyelashes?!
It works for her, though.
"H-Hi," I stammer. My face heats up, and she smiles again.
"I'm Princess Bubblegum," she says, putting a pink hand out to shake. I put my cold hand in hers. It's warm.
"I'm Marceline," I say. My lips are trembling. Why does she make me so nervous? "M-Marcie."
"Marcie." A smile teases the corner of her lips. She sure does smile a lot. It's kind of...cute. Cute? Is that weird? That's weird... "Hey, Marcie?" She pokes my face.
HOLY GLOB SHE'S TOUCHING ME. HOLY GLOB, OH MY GLOB. I think I actually stopped breathing.
"Huh?" I look up at her. She laughs lightly.
"I said, what are you doing out here all alone?"
"Oh." I awkwardly play with my hair. "Um, m-my dad. He...okay, he rules the Nightosphere, and he's a total psycho...he wants me follow in his footsteps, and-" I look at her, suddenly remembering my place. "S-sorry."
"Why?" she asks gently.
I shake my head.
"It's nothing, Princess," I mumble awkwardly. I can't believe I'm sitting next to a PRINCESS and I'm whining about my problems. I can't believe I really did that...
"It's okay, Marcie..." Her warm hand brushes my hair back from my eyes. My face is burning worse than sunlight. Suddenly I start shivering again. When did it get cold? When had it gotten WARM? "You're so cold..."
She wraps her arms around me and nestles me close.
"P-Princess," I stammer. I can't believe she makes me feel like this. What is happening to me? WHAT IS THIS CANDY PRINCESS DOING TO ME?
"Just relax," she whispers. I lean in a little closer and close my eyes.

When I open my eyes, I'm in a room that smells like candy. Everything smells like candy.
I sneeze. So sweet.
There's a soft knock on the door, and my whole body tenses.
"Come in," I call softly. My eyes widen when I see that it's Princess Bubblegum. My hands immediately start to shake.
"Hi, Marcie." Her eyes crinkle up at the corners when she smiles...I like that.
"H-Hi, Princess," I stammer in reply. Why can't I just talk to her normally? I obviously don't have the affect on her that she has on me! "Where am I?"
"Oh, you're in the Candy Kingdom," she says, "When you fell asleep last night outside, I brought you here because I didn't want you to have to sleep out there in the cold."
Aww. "Th-Thank you."
She sits at the foot of the bed.
"Your hands are shaking!" She grabs them and holds them in between hers. "Why?"
"Y-You make me n-nervous," I stammer, ducking my head shyly.
She giggles softly, and I marvel at that beautiful sound.
"I do?" She giggles again. "Why?"
"Because..." I draw my knees up to my chest and wrap my arms around them. "I don't know. You're just so...you. All pink, and beautiful, and perfect, and lovely-"
"Oh, Marcie." Princess Bubblegum smiles and wraps her arms around me, laughs softly. "You're so cute."
Cute? Me? Wait, me as in Marceline, Vampire Queen? CUTE?
"I am not!" I yell, louder than necessary. She laughs.
"You are," she says, so softly, "You're adorable, Marceline. So innocent." She puts a hand against my cheek. The scent of bubblegum fills my lungs.
"I'm not innocent," I say, playing with my fingers nervously.
"Yes, you are," she whispers, leaning her forehead against mine. I close my eyes. I'm overwhelmed by the smell of bubblegum. "You're sweet."
Then she's kissing me, and there's the taste of bubblegum overwhelming all of my senses. Her skin is so soft, tastes so sweet. She pulls back and smiles at me. I smile back shyly.
"You're sweet, Marcie," she sighs. My hands are shaking. "Relax." She kisses me again, sweetly, gently. "You don't have to be scared anymore."
And I start to cry. I cry into her shoulder. How did she know? How did she know how scared I am? How did she know when no one else does?
I can't breathe.
She kisses me again, and I gasp, not expecting it.
She smirks slightly and winks.
She kisses my forehead and leaves.
WHUT THE BLIP.
