Hello my dearies,

This will be a 3 chapter story that I hope you enjoy. It will also be the first FanFic I have created that will have chapters. Yay progress!

I don't own any of the characters from Adventure Time, they all belong to Cartoon Network.

Chapter 1: Arrival at Stacks

The weather was quite lovely this morning, perfect for boys night! Well er Morning. Fionna was excited, this was the first boys night she had in months and they were going to do it in style. The reason for the lack of get togethers were due to two reasons: One, Prince Gumball always being busy with his kingdom, and Two Marshall lee seemed to never be around town anymore. It is going to be fun hanging with the guys again, especially tonight. Fionna was currently sitting on the twenty-third floor of Breakfast Princes new restaurant "Stacks" which ironically looked like a large stack of pancakes; it was even topped with sweet surgery syrup that dripped down into a lake below. The restaurant was only a week or two old and had something for everyone, it wasn't too fancy, it was humble like a bed and breakfast. Fionna could not wait to try the food. Cake had went for its opening ceremony with Flambo and said the food was "off the chain." The waiter had came by earlier but she really wanted to wait for her friends to arrive before digging in.

She checked her watch and saw that it was 8:54 were 15 minutes late. Which wasn't a problem but it was a bit strange since they have been planing this for days. As the adventurer swung her legs back and forth she was soon greeted by a excited voice, "We're here, I'm sorry it took so long miss Fionna." It was Prince Gumball, with Marshall trailing behind "sorry were late Fi, we took the stupid stairs." Gumball rolled his eyes and took a seat next to Fionna "So Fionna, wheres cake" Asked Marshall who hovered over his seat. "Oh she wanted to hang with lord Mocro, it's date night for them." She said as the two took their seats. "So why did you guys take the stairs anywa-" Marshall interrupted her before she could finish. "So Fi I heard the waffles here are better then the pancakes weird right?" The two boys looked at each other, Gumball was looking down and fiddling with a table fork and marshall shot glances from her to the prince like he was debating weather or not to tell her what Gumball was avoiding.

The silence was broke when a waiter came to the table to take their orders. Fionna eagerly decided to tell the waiter what they all wanted starting with her self. "Ok so I want the French toast, and the blue berry waffles with two side of scrambled eggs, and the German sausage links," Gumballs eyes widened at the amout of food she was getting for herself but didn't interrupt. Fionna continued "Marshall over here wants a cherry soda with the strawberry pancakes, Oh and make sure there dyed red since he's a vampire and he can only eat red." Marshall smirked and showed his fangs off to the waiter who flinched a step back. Gumball rolled his eyes and softly punched Marshall in the arm to get him to stop. "and Prince Gumball wanted the stove cooked oats, but that's almost as boring as his science lessons so can you also bring him some of the chocolate chip pancakes." Marshall began to snicker and Gumball blushed at Fionna's comment of him having boring tastes. The waiter nodded, surprised at the large order, and went towards the kitchen to deliver the request to the chefs.

The trio talked and joked for a while as they waited for there food to come in. Suddenly out of the blue Fionna desired to ask again why the two boys took the stairs. The more she sat and thought about it made her more and more curious. It wasn't like Gumball to be late to boys night and it also wasn't like Marshall to take the stairs with the pink prince. She didn't know why it was bugging her so much but she had to know. The adventurous made up her mind and asked again. " Hey why did you too take the stairs?" The boys went silent and she continued " it's just, were on the twenty third floor, that's a lot of stairs. It would have been easier to take the elevator." Marshall lee glanced at Gumball before speaking in a low tone. "Hey uh, Fi lets just say Bubba and elevators don't really mix. It's not my story to tell and I don't really want to talk about it. There was a small little accident that happened a year ago that I don't know if Bubba wants to discuss."

Fionna pouted but soon decided to drop the topic of stairs because of how serious Marshall was suddenly getting but Gumball decided to speak up. "You can tell her, it's ok. It would be a way for us to kill time as we wait for our food" Marshall's eyes widened in surprise, honestly he didn't want to tell Fionna about their problems and began to fidget in his seat when Fionna began to stare at him, waiting to hear the story. Prince Gumball noticed Marshall uneasiness of the adventurers gaze and sighed taking the attention off of marshall as he spoke up once more "I could tell her what happened if you don't want to. After all like you said, it's mostly my story to tell." Marshall nodded and Fionna shifted her full attention to Gumball who began, with confidence, To tell her the story of when he and Marshall lee got stuck in a hotel elevator together.
