GO READ PAIR OF HEARTS: FIONNA'S DILEMMA BEFORE READING THIS

Pair of hearts: Marcus

Chapter 1

New life

"Fionna, baby are you sure you want to go through with this?" Cake asked.

"Yes Cake, I want to move in with him and marry him; stop worrying." Fionna chuckled.

Fionna and Cake have been packing all day; from clothes, to personal belongings. Fionna didn't need much since Marshall had all the furniture already in his house; she just needed a few things to make it look like home. Fionna sighed; she hoped Marshall was okay with watching Marcus while she packed, he said he was going to visit his mom for a bit to show her their son. Fionna chuckled at the thought.

"Well I think this is everything." Fionna looked around at the packed boxes of her stuff.

"Oh sweetie I never thought I'd see the day where you move out." Cake began to cry.

Fionna smiled, she kneel down in front of Cake; wiping her tears. She hated to see Cake cry over this. She nuzzled her sister's cheek.

"Cake its okay, I'm not far from home if you ever needed to see me; I'm always going to be in Marshall's house. You can come visit if you want too." Fionna nudged Cake.

Cake was quiet for a bit before answering. "Alright baby but I'm just scared, I don't want you to get hurt."

"Cake come on, this is me we're talking about. I'm the Hero of Aaa, the Princess of the Why-wolves, Defender of the Candy Kingdom, Protector of royalty; I think I can handle the Vampire King and the Prince." Fionna giggled.

Cake smiled, she knew Fionna could take care of herself just fine but she sometimes feel like Fionna needs help but she was right. Cake purred as she hugged Fionna tightly.

"Alright baby, but know this; I'm always around when you need me." Cake kissed Fionna's forehead.

"I know Cake and I'll call when I need your help."

"My goodness, this is the most evilest of all creatures to ever be conceived." Heather said as she looked over her grandson.

"Mom, it's just a baby." Marshall groaned.

He started to slowly regret visiting his mom while Fionna moved her stuff into his house. He wanted to help her but he was put on baby duty, he could have dropped Marcus off with his mom but Fionna was scared that she would suck his soul out. Marshall assured her that Marcus had no soul; he was undead just like his mom was. Of course Fionna didn't believe him so he stayed here, babysitting his mom and his son.

"I know but, never before have human and a hybrid like you ever done something like this in millennia." Heather was in awe.

"Yes I know I'm the last one of the human/demon/vampire breeding. I get it but you shouldn't be surprised really." Marshall rolled his eyes.

"Oh but I should be, this child is amazing." Heather kissed Marcus's face.

"Yeah I know, but whatever man. It's just a baby that happens to be half demon, half vampire and a quart of a human." Marshall sighed.

He didn't know the percentage his son had of the three genes; he didn't really care as he just wanted his son to live. He was never able to shake that day when he had to bite his son in order for him to live, he hated that he cursed his son to go through this but there was nothing else he could do. Marshall hovered above the ground, leaning back as he watched Heather play with Marcus.

"So, have you and Fionna thought about marriage? More kids? A bigger house?" Heather grinned at him.

Marshall rolled his eyes. "We just thought of marriage and her moving in with him, I asked her to marry me a while ago. She said yes but we're not sure where to place our wedding."

"I see, well, after or before your wedding; are you thinking of taking back your throne?" Heather said as she tickled Marcus who giggled.

Marshall looked at her and looked away, he hasn't thought of that yet. As the Vampire King or former if the council vote against him to be kicked off after a long hiatus of his rule. He was thinking he would go back but he wasn't sure; that would mean Fionna would have to move again and be farther from her friends and family. He didn't want that but he also didn't want to become the former king of Vampire. He wanted to become former when he died.

"Well, I don't know. Maybe when Marcus gets older like about two years old or whatever." Marshall sighed.

"And your duties in the nightosphere? I could just pass that responsibility down to Marcus if you don't want to do it." Heather said as she tossed Marcus up in the air a bit.

"Well- I'm not sure, I guess I can handle both jobs at once but then again it would mean I have to pass that down to Marcus and if he is anything like me- he's going to run." Marshall avoided looking at Heather.

Heather looked at him, she didn't get what he meant but she knew it was about his slacking off. She sighed, placing Marcus back in Marshall's arm.

"What you did was not your fault, it was mines. I wasn't a good parent to you; I left you in Aaa to attend to my duties here. I left you on your own; I do owe that woman Simone for taking care of you when I couldn't." Heather smiled, leaning down to kiss Marshall's forehead. "If you are a better parent then I was, then your son will turn out to be great."

Marshall looked at her and smiled, he was happy that she saw the error of her ways, he forgave her for everything. It wasn't her fault and he knew that now; sometimes duties make you do things you don't want to.

"Don't worry mom, I'll be the better parent; for both of us." Marshall hugged her.

"I love you mom, you may not be right in the head but you're the best mom I could have asked for; just wish I would have noticed that before." Marshall looked away sheepishly

Heather looked at him before smiling.

"It's okay, I forgive you."
