I wake up to the sound of someone breathing heavily in my room. I open my eyes ad see Marshall leaning against the wall of my room. Cake is nowhere to be seen, or heard. Marshall's ear flickers. He knows I'm awake.

"Hey. Ready for our date?" Marshall asks cooly.

I notice he's not wearing a shirt. He's wearing black swim shorts and that's it. He's holding his black umbrella in his left hand and he waiting.

"Get out of my room Marshall. I need to change." I order a little harshly. "Okay princess." He says leaving.

I get out of bed and change into my baby blue two piece swimsuit. I grab a white towel and leave the room. My hair flows behind me and swished as I swing open the door to outside.

The second Marshall sees me his mouth gapes open. I smirk, being the one in control of him. He comes up close and puts one of his fingers under the top strap of my bikini which is laying on my arm. I close my eyes not ready for whatever he's going to do to me. He calmly moves the strap over to my shoulder where it should be. I open my eyes at look at him half smiling.

Suddenly I'm swooped up bridal style and Marshall carries me to wherever. This doesn't seem like a date. It still feels like we are best bros and sis. It feels nice.

"Cute suit Fi." Marshall comments. "Thanks." I thank blushing.

I look over to my side and my eyes run into Marshall's bare chest. Woah. I can see his abs. I pick up my finger and trace my finger through the indents of his skin.

It looks so weird and feels so cool. I keep tracing my fingers through taking a different route each time on his six pack.

My hair stops flowing through the wind. Weird. I keep tracing lines. This is fun. His cool body feels nice against mine.

I feel cold lips against my cheek. Than they go away. I look up, my face red to see Marshall smiling. We're on the ground now. OHMYGLOB!!! How long was I tracing his abs?!? I can't believe I was doing that!!! >.<

"Jump in." Marshall says jumping into LAVA!!! "ARE YOU CRAZY MARSHALL?!?" I freak out.

Marshall just ignores me and keep wading in the lava. I look around at my surroundings. We're in a volcano. I look up to see a roundish hole. I'm standing on a rock sticking out of the lava. The lava is red orange and it surprisingly isn't steaming. It's a little dark in here because the sun isn't quite shining in here.

I dip my toe in and feel warm water. I wade in and dunk under. I come back up and my hair is red orange. I follow Marshall and swim around him. I can't touch the bottom. I clutch onto Marshall getting tired. He swims around in circles with me on his back not even getting tired.

"I'm bored." Marshall finally says. "It was your idea to come here." I reply. "I kind of just wanted to see you in a bikini."

I flunk the back of his head. No reaction.

"Totally worth it." Marshall comments. "Can we go?" I ask. "Sure."

Marshall gets my towel and his umbrella. He picks me up again and were off to the next place he decides we should go.

Arrive

We arrive in a plain grassy field. There's one apple tree and we sit together under it. There's lava still dripping off of our bodies.

"So you forgive me right?" I ask hopefully. "Of course. I lo-love to hang with you." He replies stuttering, "Have you chosen who you want to be with?" "Why does it even matter?" "Well we all want to know. I'm guessing you're going to choose Gumbutt, because you love him." "Whatever. I don't even know anymore. I'll probably choose none of you. Love is stupid. Adventuring is what really counts." "You sound like a little kid. You need to grow up Fionna. Stop living in the past."

It's the first time in ages he's called me by my first full name. I guess he's serious. But he knows I don't like it when people say I'm a little kid. Little kids always get bossed around. They don't get to live as freely as me.

"Look Fi. I know that sounded harsh, but I mean seriously. The past is gone. You have to start making choices." Marshall say getting all serious. "I am not in the past. I'm right here living freely." I beam. "Yeah right. You're always getting ordered around by Gumbutt. You follow him like his little slave. He's just using you Fi. I know i'd never use you."

I stop and think. I can't think of what to say. Now that I think about it, Marshall may be right. Gumball is always telling me to help him in the lab, and to do chores for him. Love is confusing. I just, just wanna to back to the way it was.

I feel cold lips on my cheek. Marshall. He puts his cold hands around my hair still kissing my cheek. He stays in this position for about two minutes, then he lets go.

"Don't think about it to much Fi. I love you. And I really hope you make the right decision. But if it really comes down to the point. Choose FP or none of us." Marshall fesses getting up slowly, "I mean what was I kidding? I'm a vampire, your a human. Those two don't mix together well. I hate these feelings!"

I'm frozen under the tree my eyes locked on Marshall. He looks at me his eyes light red. In the blink of an eye his face is an inch away from mine. He pulls me in by putting his hand under my chin and bringing us both closer till our lips touch. He keeps me in the position. His legs are spread over on the sides of me. And his body is inches away.

He releases me after a few seconds and stands up with his umbrella, "You're the first girl I've ever truly fallen in love with. Love hurts. It kills you, but you'd still die for it."

With that he leaves me stunned under the apple tree. My voice doesn't let me call after him. I guess I'll see him at the ball. The day isn't even half over. The sun is so warm. At least I'm under this tree. I curl up on the soft green grass. As I drift to sleep I think about Marshall's last few words, "Love hurts. It kills you, but you'd still die for it."
