Chapter 11
(Pre-Final)
Marshalls P.O.V:
Wow. That's the only word I can use to describe this moment, I'm walking with the girl of my dreams, and we're in a town by this point we can basically call our home. It's a nice scene, a great change up actually. Usually we're fighting something or someone is coming after us, or some nonsense like that. It's great to let our guards down for once, although even after what Gumwad said I think Fee is still on the nervous side about Cake finding out about us. I just want her to have a good time.
I wrapped my arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer to me, I'm hoping this will get her to calm down but I don't think that's going to happen. I sighed, I guided us over to a bench, while people's faces blurred past I couldn't help but finally glance down at Fionna she kept her head down. Was she embarrassed of me? I removed my arm and she finally looked up at me.
"Are you okay Marshall?" she asked.
"I should be the one asking you that. What's up you've been quiet since we left the castle."
"Um well, I'm not used to going out in public without my hat." She said in almost a whisper.
"Oh. Well look at it this way, people won't hardly recognize you, especially with the outfit you have on no one is likely to recognize you." I reassured her. I didn't realize she had such a bad insecurity about her hat.
"Do you really think so?" she asked hopefully.
"I do. Now come on I have a full day planned," I took her by the hand and led her over to a fountain, "You have to make a wish." I gave her a coin I had stashed away in my jeans.
"What do I wish for?" she never took her eyes off the coin. Suddenly her face lit up. She blew on the coin and flipped it into the fountain. The made a plop noise and the droplets kind of resembled crystals, the low ripples from the coin are at ease, the air was fresh, and it was just tranquil. I looked over at Fionna and she was looking up at me with a smile that could melt the heart of millions.
"What did you wish for?" I was curious, it had to be good.
"I can't say, but hopefully you'll find out soon." She booped my nose. I was confused. But while I was in my thoughts she managed to wonder off. What the heck, how does she manage this? I was looking around trying to find any sign of her, she pulled a really good disappearing act but I really need to find her. Just as I was to take a break I walked past a store that had a stuffed bunny in the window. It was cute, little black eyes that have a shine to them; the white fur looks silky and fluffy. I have to get it for her. I walked inside and the store clerk just smiled and looked back at a paper he was reading. I picked up the rabbit and made the purchase. As he was bagging the gift he looked at me curiously. "You're a little old for a stuffed animal aren't you?" he asks with a smile.
"Eh what can I say I get scared at night, I have to have my little bunny to keep me company." I joking said.
"Oh I see. She's pretty you know." He said looking past me. I was confused so I followed his gaze and I saw Fionna in a park playing with the little kids. She's stunning. "I saw the coat she was wearing and put two and two together." He laughed, "Have a good day son." I walked out of the store and headed to where Fionna was, I can't believe it's already starting to get dark we haven't done anything, but if we went home right now it would be the of a perfect day.
