Love you 'til Death (Editing)

Chapter 3: No I can't

Fionna POV

I tried to get comfortable on the couch while Marshall was making popcorn. I realized there was no way I could sit comfortable over here. Marshall came over with the popcorn in a bowl and some strawberries. He laughed at me because he knew how uncomfortable and hard the couch was. He never sits on it he just floats over the couch.

When the movie started I was still trying to sit in a right position. I was moving around but gave up. Suddenly Marshall grabbed me and sat me on his lap. Since when is Marshall so nice? Then I looked at his mysterious eyes, which were half covered by his perfect looking hair. He was so handsome. Now I realize why so many girls chase after him. Wait what? Why was I thinking like that? He is one of my Best Friends.

I just tried to concentrate on the movie to stop thinking about it. After the movie finished we were still staring at the screen for about 2 minutes. It was silent.

"Well, I should go. Cake is probably gonna be mad," I broke the silence.

It was pretty late and I was sure Cake was already home.

"Ok. See you later," he said with his smirk that always makes me blush.

He walked me to the door but then we just stood there staring at each other. I came closer to him and he came closer to me. I wasn't really sure what I was doing. We were very close and I almost touched his lips but then...he flew up and landed one foot away from me.

"I can't..." he whispered.

Marshall POV

I noticed how Fionna and I came closer together and almost...I almost kissed her. I really wanted to...but I couldn't so I flew up and landed a little bit farther away from her.

"I can't..." I whispered. "I would only hurt you. Let's just forget about it, ok," I gave her a week smile.

I didn't want to hurt her! Why did I care? Did I like her? No! I can't like her! She is a human and I am the Vampire King! It would never work.

"But...you're my friend! And...I know you would never hurt me!" she said in a soft voice stuttering a little. It was silent after that because neither one of us knew what to say.

"Would you like to go to the dance with me? You know, for my birthday party?" she asked all of a sudden.

I was kinda shocked but also happy.

"Yes."

Fionna POV

I didn't know what to say so I just said the first thing that came to my mind.

"Would you like to go to the dance with me? You know, for my birthday party?" those words came out of nowhere.

"Yes," he answered with a smile. With an actual smile not a smirk.

After that I smiled, too, and then headed home. When I arrived I tried to be quiet because I didn't want to wake up Cake. I was thinking about how Cake would react if I told her that I'm going to the dance with Marshall. She would probably freak because she doesn't like Marshall that much. But she has to deal with it. She was the one who told me the right one will come to me and Marshall came to me, well sort of, I guess. I was really exhausted so I fell asleep.
