Paring Sogfics: Say You Like Me, Fiolee
She's the girl that no one ever knows.
And I say hi, but she's too shy to say hello.
She's just waiting for that one to take her hand
And shake her up.
I bet I could.
I floated around the weird party. I wondered what I was even doing there. 'Cause I'm firkin awesome, that's why!' My mind told me, and I agreed with it. As I looked around, wondering how to kill time, I saw Fionna. She was in a beautiful, white dress, like the one she was wearing at that other party, with her usual bunny hat. I held up the devil horn sign with my hand. "Hey." I called. She returned the sign, and hurried along.
I wish my heart was always on her mind.
'Cause she's on mine like all day, all the time.
Forget me not, forget me now.
I've come too far to turn around.
I'm here tonight.
I wondered what she thought about. I wondered if it was me. That would be a very good thing for me. Because, for me, it was always her. Always. She never stopped revolving around my brain at some point in the day. You know what? I think I'm going to follow her. Tell her… things. I mean, I was here, wasn't I?
'Cause I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
So, I followed her. She was going up to the balcony. Alone. It was my chance. "Hey." I called. Fionna stopped in her tracks. "Uh… hey Marshall," She said shyly. "Do you… wanna hang out, for a little while?" I asked awkwardly. I almost kicked myself. 'Where's your frickin confidence, dude?' "Um… I think they have red punch downstairs," She said. Oh, so she's trying to get rid of me, is she? "You're gonna have to try harder than that to get rid of me," I said, grinning confidently. I saw a slight grin twisting on her face. Score.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
And then, I came up with an idea. I pulled out my bass from a secret pocket in my coat. Her eyes lit up. "Woah, awesome! Where'd you get that thing?"
"It's run in my family for a while. Come over here, I'll show you how to play." She blushed a little. Damn, did I just rush it? Did I just ruin any chance I had? Damn these fluffing emotions. But, none the less, she walked over, and sat next to me. I grabbed her hand, and put it on the right places on the guitar, and told her what to do to play the chords to my favorite song. It might have just been my hopefulness, but I think a spark just ignited.
She's the girl that no one ever knows.
Works a double just to buy her clothes.
Nicotine and faded dreams,
Baby, just believe
There's no one else like me.
"How did you even learn to play like that?" She asked, amazed. I looked her in the eyes. "I didn't." Her mouth gaped. "You mean you just could play like that instantly?" I shook my head. "No, I mean I didn't learn from somebody else. Trust me, there's no one else like me." She smiled. "No, there obviously isn't."
'Cause I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
The pressing question raced in my mind, and I couldn't help but blurt it. "Do you like me?" Fionna just blushed again, and smiled a little. But instead of answering my question, she just grabbed my hand. "Look at the sky tonight, isn't it beautiful?" I was tempted to pull one of the 'not as beautiful as you' type of things, but I wasn't gonna try it anymore, or at least, not yet…
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
So, I dropped it, or at least, in that context. But, I'd bring it back up again, don't you worry. I'm not one to give up easily. She was right, though. It was a really beautiful night. But I think she had something to do with it.
It's time to fall into my arms.
'Cause I've been waiting for too long.
You're an angel,
Grab your halo,
And lets fly tonight.
"Hey, you wanna do something?" I asked, after looking at the sky got boring (which happened very fast). "We are doing something" She answered, but I could tell she was just pushing my buttons. I stuck my tongue out. She gave me a playful sneer. "Seriously," I said. "Well… it depends what 'do something' actually means," she said in a very technical voice. I floated closer to her. "Just trust me." I insisted. She nodded. I wrapped my arms around her, and flew to the balcony, her feet sitting on the rim. "Marshall!" She shrieked. "Don't worry, I won't drop you," I insisted. I flew off of the ground, officially in the air. Then, I turned, getting a look of her, the wind flying through her. She looked like an angel.
'Cause I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
Fionna's eyes were closed. "Do you like me, Fionna?" I asked her again, her body entirely in my arms, now. That broke her concentration, and she almost screamed. I tightened my grip on her. "It's alright, I got you," I said lovingly. She sighed. "Will you quit asking?" She begged, distraught from hanging in the air. "No, but I'll drop it for now," I answered honestly.
'Cause I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
I'm never going down,
I'm never giving up.
I'm never gonna leave,
So put your hands up.
If you like me,
Then say you like me.
When we got on the ground, again Fionna almost fell on top of me. I distinctavly wrapped my arms around her. And then, I looked her in the eyes. "Fionna…" I began. She looked up. "Yeah?" So innocent… "Do you want a drink?" Curse me for thinking of people's feelings. She smiled. "Yeah, sure." A couple of minutes and stolen bottles later, I returned. She smiled at me. "Thanks, Marshall" She said somewhat happily.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Just say you like me.
"Do you like me?" I asked, finally getting an answer. She smiled shyly, like the hours ago when we were talking. "Yes." She said. I pulled her closer. And, it might have been the drinks, or the heat of the moment, maybe, but I leaned in and kissed her. Passionately. For at least 20 seconds.
