Marshall Lee awoke to a loud banging. He slowly opened up his eyes, only feel like someone was hitting him with a hammer. Last night felt very fuzzy, and for a second Marshall didn't know where he was until he took in the familiar setting of Fionna's living room. He was calm for a few minutes until he looked to his side, and saw a sleeping Fionna wrapped around him.
She also was still wearing his flannel, which he really enjoyed. Now in any other situation Marshall would have enjoyed this, but unluckily his brain recognized the banging on the door as Cake's knocking. Marshall knew that if he didn't do something fast, he would become Cake's personal scratching post. He tried to wake Fionna up, but unfortunately, she was out like a light.
The banging got louder on the door, and it that moment Marshall did the only thing he could think of. He pushed her from the comfortable couch, onto the hard, cold floor.
"WHAT THE JUNK MARSHALL LEE!" Fionna shouted.
Marshall Lee immediately covered her mouth, and gave her a shut the hell up look.
"Fi calm down, Cake's here and if she saw us snuggling... well I'd be a scratching post." he explained.
Fionna blushed a deep red "Wait... we-I snuggled you?" she squeaked.
Marshall Lee gave her a toothy smile and winked at her. Fionna rolled her eyes at his flirtations
"How the heck did we end up on my couch? All I remember is flying home, and then that's it."
Marshall shrugged "I dunno Fionna my heads all messed up, I think we got drunk."
Fionna pinched her temple if Cake found out about any of this she, and more importantly Marshall were screwed.
"Sugar are you there? It's Cake I came to check in on you hunny!" shouted Cake.
Marshall and Fionna made eye contact, they both new it was go time.
"Okay Marshall put a shirt on for globs sake, and go make breakfast." Fionna ordered.
"I will go deal with Cake!" she said running down her ladder.
Marshall sighed, and shoved on a somewhat clean shirt. "SUGAR IT'S CAKE OPEN UP OR I WILL BREAK THIS DOOR DOWN." The heroine practically fell over herself trying to get downstairs, and when she finally got down to it Cake standing in the door frame.
"Oh uh hi Cake I just woke up sorry." she said putting on a fake smile. Cake's eyes grew wide, and she ran towards Fionna and glomped her.
"Oh I missed you so much sugar!" squealed Cake.
"I missed you too Cake!" cried Fionna.
"I'm sorry I haven't checked in on you in a while, just my kids were growing up so fast."she explained.
"It's fine Cake I understand." Fionna said happily.
Then Cake when on a long rant about her kids, and how cute they were. All of a sudden Cake started to sniff her.
"Umm Cake what are you doing?" she said a bit weirded out. Cake gave her a strange look and then shouted
"You smell different, like....like MARSHALL LEE, and why in Aaa are you wearing his flannel!" In that moment Fionna knew it was all over.
Of course Cake would be able to smell him on her, she had a cat's sense of smell.
"Uh.. umm what are you talking about Cake." Fionna stuttered out. "Don't give me that sugar you reek of strawberries, and the dark forest." Cake said sassily.
