Fireflies (marshall and marceline)

Chapter thirty-eight

Marceline's p.o.v

"Who is this puny little man you brought over Marceline?!" dad said flatly, pointing his finger to Marshall as he scrutinize him. Marshall gave me a playful glare, twitching his mouth for a smile.

"Dad...this is Marshall" I gestured him. We're actually in the nightosphere right now, dad heard about me dating someone and had me come over...

"yeah...I know, I've heard of him..a lot from you" he said, making me blush. I glanced at Marshall who was giving me a goofy smile.

"let's not talk about that" I spat.

"no..please..please continue sir" Marshall interrupted

"no lets talk about something else...dad..please"

He looked at Marshall, like they're communicating. Then dad looked at me, "I'm so sad that this man's gonna take my daughter away from me" he whined, wiping his eyes.

"what?" I asked, confused

Marshall turned away, biting his lower lip. "the marriage!" dad blurted out, making my eyes grow wide and leaving my mouth hang open. I can hear Marshall's soft laugh from here. I shook my head like a child in disagreement. "oh~ so you're planning on having a child first!"

"what?! nonononono...that haven't even crossed my mind yet, Dad!" I said indignantly, when Marshall suddenly bursts out laughing. I blushed at his reaction, I hovered closer to him slapping his arms impulsively.

"what?" he asked, wiping the side of his eyes.

"oh~ nothing" I said sarcastically, crossing my arms on my chest when Dad suddenly excused himself, saying that he still has some business to take care of and we can already leave if we want. "whoa..that was fast" I chuckled

"hm..so where do go next?" he said, grabbing me by the waist and pulling me closer. He leaned in, resting his head on my temple then whispered me something.

"no, let's stay here for awhile" I said and he nods. We started wondering around, building a conversation. "dad actually likes you..you know" I blushed

"Well that's good" he twitched his lips for a smile and after that we kept silent.

Fionna's p.o.v

Marshall just came back from the nightosphere, and went directly to me without marceline. He invited me to the roughhouse, where all the drinks were served!. It reeks of alcohol in here...these guys are a heavy drinker! They started to tackle each other while Marshall and I sat on the bar stools. He asked for something to drink other than those alcoholic ones.

"so why did you take me here?" I asked him curiously

"just want to spend some time with a friend" he replied

"this is your treat right?!"

"sure" he chuckled

"no...seriously why did you take me here?" I asked again. He clearly won't treat me if don't need anything. Usually I would be the one paying for this.

"hey..I know what your thinking~" he said like he just saw everything right through me. I raised my eyebrows at him, "okay.okay..you got me", bang!! truths out!

"so what do you need? that only a girl knows..." I said making him spit his drink at the buffed, tan man across the table. Ohoho...trouble.. I just laughed at him for his clumsiness, making the man more angry at us.

Marshall stood up from his chair, bowing his head "sorry~ sir" he said sarcastically like he would do to gumball.

"Marshall!!" I yelled at him, smacking his head

He just chuckled, grabbing hold of my hands and flying me up, "gotta run fi!" he said playfully. A true 'Sorry' was the least thing I could say to the guy.

"Your a jerk! we could've been banned from the roughhouse in your behavior!" I chastise him as my eyes grew wide in realization, he flew me at the top of a tall, tall, tall tree!! "Marshall!! what did I ever did to you?! be thankful cakes not here!" I screamed as he evily laughed in front me.

"c'mon, this is fun!" he happily said

After a few moments later, some weird idea just popped in my head "hey! catch me!" I yelled at him, involuntarily jumping down. What the hell am I doing?! I screamed for his name a million of times, but he didn't respond..that crap! "Marshall!!!" I screamed louder, closing my eyes. I was about three meters from the ground when I felt my body stop from crushing to the ground. He landed me to the ground, and my feet just buckled, slumping down on the crispy grass.

"what a daredevil fi" he said flatly, running his hand through his hair as he helped me stand up.

"well you..you..your an idiot!" I stomped away from him as quick as I could. "just tell me what you need so I can go.." I muttered angrily.

He stopped in front of me, he looked so nervous. "sure..but you better have an answer and keep this as a secret...you'll be the very first person to know it" he came closer to my ears, whispering every detail to me. I just nodded at everything he said.

"I know a great person who can do that for you..anyway congratulations!" I said, giving him a weak but happy smile.
