Chapter I
Finn was staring at his arm, his heart full of joy and amazement. He started jumping around, happy, almost not believing he got his limb back. After a while he realized Breezy had been there the entire time. As a flower landed on her face she hugged it and took a final look at Finn before leaving.
He hadn't even realized she was the one that got her arm back. But to Finn, it was not Breezy's voice he heard. His ears had only caught the beautiful sound of Princess Bubblegum. He didn't know what had happened until he got home and put some thought into it. The flower needed happiness to stay alive, yet it was not happines he felt when he hallucinated PB. It was something stronger, something powerfull enough to make the flower grow huge and reassemble his arm. It was love. Breezy sung a song that had shown the young hero who he really loved, and thinking about her was enough to restore his limb.
"PB..." murmured Finn, as he was covered in his blankets. Her name brought back memories of when they had been together, and that hurt the hero. He knew that his little time with the princess was the happiest of his life, but that it would never happen again. Never. Why? Because she was too old? Once Finn believed that, but now he knew it wasn't just that. The princess was exactly that- a princess. It meant she had responsabilities. She had to protect her citizens. She loved them. But deep inside his heart Finn wanted her to put aside her responsibilities and think about him for once; realize he loves him back. And then he thought "Maybe she doesn't even love me…. Maybe that's why she never wanted me…. ". Finn wasn't a kid anymore, he knew that PB has slipped from his hands long ago, yet he still wondered "what if? ". What if they tried? And in that moment, his next thought proved he was now an adult. "I can't let her go. I can't have her. I can only live my life and try not to ruin our friendship. Eventually I will find someone….but never someone like her." And with that he finally closed his eyes.
It was the next morning. Finn woke up to the smell of Jake's cooking. He got up and realized he missed his hat. "Must've left it in the woods". And suddenly he knew that his hat was getting small anyway… and made him look childish.
"Sup bro."
"Hey Jake. Can i ask you something?"
"Yeah su….Dude! You got your arm back! That's great!"
"Yeah, it's cool and all but listen. I have some stuff to work out. I wanna get my mind off of it, sooo…. Wanna find a dungeon?"
"You know it!"
Two years. That much passed since Finn stopped seeing PB and started focusing on adventures. He got taller, stronger and most of all, smarter. But he hadn't really changed that much in his soul. He still was pretty much the same. Everything was going great until he got a phonecall in the middle of the night.
" Yeah.. Finn here…Who is it?"
"Finn, thank glob. I need you here now! Please Finn, something bad is going down."
Halfway through her message, Finn left his phone hanging and rushed out the door.
In less than a half an hour, Finn entered the castle and found PB's lab door blocked…and some demons trying to get in. Finn was strong, stronger than them, and he got rid of them easily. Then he broke the door and found PB unconscious. "She hadn't changed a bit…" Finn thought as he got close to her and tried to wake her up.
"Glob…mein head… Finn? You saved me! Oh i thought i was boned until you arrived."
"What were those demons doing here?" "I found an ancient artifact. And it seems to have belonged to them…. They didn't like me playing around with it"
"I'm just glad you're okay. I got really worried. I don't want to see you ever get hurt Princess..." Finn helped her to her feet, and PB seemed amazed by how sweet he was.
"Finn… why? Why didn't you come see me for nearly 2 years? I missed you….."
"I was busy. I have to keep all of Ooo safe, just like you have to protect your citizens. I wish I had time too see you, but I didn't want to distract you from your work. Besides, I didn't think you actually missed me."
"Finn, you are my hero. How could I not care about you…" she put her hands on his arms, feeling his muscles. She looked him in the eyes. He lost his hat, but somehow he looked better now. No, he wasn't a pretty kid no more, he was a handsome young man, tall and strong…mature. She lost herself in his beautiful green eyes, and put her hands around his shoulders. In response, Finn held her by the waist tightly and gazed upon her perfect face.
"I never stopped loving you, Princess. After all this time I can't stop thinking about you. I need to know…please, tell me…Do you feel the same now?"
"My hero, I always wonder if I would even be here withouth you. I always loved you… I always did, but I had a kingdom to rule, and I wanted to have time for you too. But now, as I look in your eyes I see I was wrong. Love comes always above all, and I… do love you."
Finn got closer and closer to her, until their lips connected. He kissed her so passionatelly, he kissed her like he waited years for this moment, and he did. The princess moaned as she lost herself in his arms and felt him take control if the kiss. He bit her lip, licked her tongue, everything to put as much passion into the moment.
And then the moment ended. The princess held Finn in her arms and he held her in his. They stood like this for a while until Finn finally talked.
"I suppose i have to go back now…"
"No. Stay with me, Finn. I am always so lonely, please sleep with me, I want you to hold me in your arms, hero."
"I would love to, but Jake…"
She interrupted him "Finn, you are an adult, you don't have to worry about Jake. I want to make up for lost time"
"Ok then, let's get some sleep"
And sleep they got;but only after they kissed, cuddled and kissed again. But they didn't go any further. Finn didn't want it to happen yet.
As they woke up, Finn felt as if his life was complete. He finally met his love after 2 long years and she loved him back.
"Finn, I have to tell you something."
"You can tell me anything princess."
"Finn, I love you, but i have a kingdom to rule. If we are to be together you have to promise me you won't get mad if we can't spend too much time together. That's how my last relationship ended, and I don't want it to happen again."
"You have my word, princess. Now excuse me, but I should REALLY get going. I will have some explaining to do to Jake."
He kissed PB once more and headed home.
After talking his way out of an argument with Jake, Finn wanted to get PB something as a gift. And the only person who knew her very well was Marceline. So, naturally, he went to her cave.
As the door opened Finn saw Marcy in a beautiful black dress, with the usual red boots.
"Nice looks Marcy. You headed to a party?"
"Nah. I just saw this dress and said 'Why not?'. But you ain't here to compliment me on the looks, right?"
"I need your help. I wanna buy PB a gift and you know best what to get her."
"Again coming to me for help with her, huh? You're an adult now you butt, and you still need help with girls?"
"You missunderstood. Me and PB are together now, I just wanna get her something she'll like."
"Well, why didn't you say so? When me and Bonnie were a couple…."
Finn interrupted her "Wait, what?"
