My Crazy Obsession

Sleeping Vampire

~Finn's POV~

I couldn't believe she had said that. All these years I spent chasing Bubblegum. Always getting the cold shoulder, and now suddenly... I just can't believe her! When Marceline went upstairs the first words out of her mouth were "Finn, I love you come back and be my hero. Don't be a monster with her..." My jaw dropped. I couldn't even believe it! Four years of trying for her, crying over her! Then finally when I've moved on, and I'm happy she pulls me away. But this time she wouldn't win. I would stay strong.

"No Bubblegum. I won't do it. I like being like this." I had told her.

"You're a fool!!!" She screamed at me. "She'll never love you!!! She will only hurt you!" That's how Marceline use to be. She would go back and forth between abusive guys who never actually loved her, and she would always come away broken hearted. Over the years it had turned her cold. Even I had been surprised when she had told me she thought she loved me earlier this morning.

"She's changed Bubblegum!" I shouted.

"She can't change and she never will! I'll be waiting for you to come to me crying and saying that I was right!" She screamed, stomping to the door, and slamming it behind her.

Now I'm laying with Marceline running it over and over in my head. She finally fell asleep cuddled in my arms. Even though neither of us give off heat it feels warm and fuzzy between us. I kiss her forehead again and smell her hair. Her eyes are still a little red from crying, but not as puffy. I wrap my fingers in her hair and play with it softly. She's so gorgeous when she sleeps, like an angel. I rub her back up and down softly feeling her spine and ribs. She's so skinny, but I guess when all you eat is the color red its not a very nutritious diet. I laid there admiring her for a very long time. I enjoyed this time, seeing as how she doesn't exactly let people admire her while she's awake. As soon as she notices me staring she usually gets antsy and then defensive as to why I'm staring. But as she sleeps I can stare as much as I want and she doesn't even know it. I love her, and I probably always have somewhere deep down. I just never really realized it until the idea was staring me right in the face. Maybe getting sick was the best thing that's ever happened to me, even if that means there's no humans left in all of Ooo.
