Salem: Yay this is my first Adventure Time one shot song fic! I'm so excited! Hope all of you like and R&R but no flames please! Thanks everyone!
It had been over a month since Finn had last seen Flame Princess. He assumed that she had gone back to the fire kingdom, but not seeing her stung him like a bee. All of his friends had noticed that his usual perkiness had left. He seemed hollow like the abandon trunk of a tree. Marceline had invited him over to her lair to help her record some music, because it always seemed to cheer him up.
Finn took off his backpack and rummaged around in it for his recording machine. He didn't feel it. "Sorry Marceline. I don't have it." he mumbled slipping his pack back on.
Marceline frowned. "I can still play my base without it." she suggested.
Finn shook his head. He turned around. "I think I'm gonna leave. I'm not in the mood for music."
Marceline rolled her eyes. "Will you just listen to this song? I want your opinion!" she hissed forcefully.
Finn sighed and sat down on the floor. "Alright, alright! Play your song."
Satisfied, Marceline cleared her throat. She ran her fingers across the stiff guitar strings and began to sing a sweet melody;
I know your shattered
I know your broken
But is this really what you wanna be
Flipping your life like a token
I just don't get what you see
All the sorrow
All the pain
It slaps you in the face Like an unforgiving rain
Howling like the whistle of a runaway train
Finn blinked. Marceline was looking him in the eye as she sung every word, as though the song was meant for him. She continued.
You stupid little thing
Forget about your past
Look up to the sky
And try to make this moment last
I wanna see you smile
I wanna see you try your best
Now go out and have some fun
Before you're laid down to rest
Now do you understand
Why I'm calling out to you
Even though you've lost a love
That doesn't mean we're through
Finn swallowed. What did she mean we're not through?
Your brave heart
And shining eyes are too much for me to bear
So give me what I want
My cries you never seem to hear
I just wanna see you smile
I wanna see you try your best
Now go out and have some fun
Before you're laid down to rest
Quit being so forgetful
Look at what you have
Everything in front of you
Forget about the past
Forget about your past
Forget about that past
It wasn't meant to last
Forget about that p-ast
Marceline stopped and floated down to where Finn was sitting on the floor. The impact of her words had rendered him speechless. She sat next to him.
"You have everything Finn." she said. "Quit freaking out over Flame Princess."
Finn blinked. She was right. He stood up and refused to meet her eyes. He walked to the door and opened it.
"Thanks Marceline." he said softly before stepping out of the house.
Marceline flew forward and grabbed Finn by the shoulder. She spun him around and pulled off his hat. She ran her fingers through his blonde hair and sighed. "Forget about it." she whispered before leaning in and pressing her lips gently against his.
Finn's eyes widened in shock, but he soon relaxed. He slowly wrapped his arms around the vampire queen's waist. Her black hair brushed his cheek like a feather and he brushed it behind her ear with the back of his hand. All may have been lost and Flame Princess may be a distant memory, but that one moment gave him hope and kept him strong for the journey ahead.
Hehe I hoped you liked it! Please review, but no flames! Thanks for your support everyone!
~With love, Salem Marionette
