A/N: GUESS WHOS BACK? BACK AGAIN? BEAN IS BACK. TELL A FRIEND x3

     I turned my head to see Marshall Lee standing in the corner of the room. "Hey." I said, and I walked uo to him and playfully punched him in the arm. "Ouch. My arm, for it is destroyed entirely." He chuckled at his sarcastic comment and I smiled. "Can I ask you something Y/N?" I got a little nervous, I could feel a pit in my stomach. "Shoot." I said, trying to act like I was okay. "Well, first of all, you look great, and because you look so nice, I was wondering if I could get a dance." He looked up at me with confidence in his eyes. "Uhh, s-sure." I stammered, still flushed from the question. He then walked away like nothing happened.

     "What the glob was that?" Cake pulled me aside. "What was what?" I asked. "What did Marshall Lee want?" I knew exactly where this was going. "Nothing Cake, he just asked me for a dance later tonight and I already said yes to him so there is nothing you can do about it." "Whatever, but you two need to be arms length apart, got it? Arms length!" I chuckled as Cake walked away. She acts as if I'm her own child sometimes. 

     A few hours later, a slower song came on. I made eye contact with Marshall from across the room. When I got to him I asked if he wanted to dance. "Not yet," he said. " I want to wait for a special song." About an hour later the song '400 Lux' by Lorde started playing. "I'm ready for our dance now." He pulled me close, and we moved to the music. I spotted Cake from the corner of my eye. She had a mad expression, but looking into her eyes, I could see happiness. I looked at her and she smiled. I knew that Cake had finally accepted Marshall Lee. The song was over and everyone clapped. Before I could walk away, Marshall said something. "You're a really good dancer." I was surprised seeing as I thought I would be the last person to hear a compliment about my dancing. I just smiled and shrugged before I walked over to Fionna. "Oh my glob you guys are so cute together!" She said. I reminded her that we are just friends, and watched disappointment grow in her expression.

     It was getting very late, and I walked home. "Aren't you cold?" I heard a voice coming from behind me. I laughed as I saw Marshall Lee waving at me, a smile on his face. "Just a little." I replied. He walked over to me, putting his jacket over my shoulders, and walking away. He didn't say a word, and I didn't refuse. I walked home with a feeling of security and warmth. I unlocked my door and flopped down on my couch. I lazily kept my eyelids open. After a few minutes of lying on the couch, I got changed into comfortable clothes, whipped away any makeup on my face, and went to sleep.
