Hello lady's and germs and welcome to the second chapter of love games, I told you it would be a weekly thing and here it is (even though I still don't know the exact day of the week I want to upload yet). Thank you for all the returning readers who read chapter 1 and choose to come back for more! I'm not the best writer but I really have a lot of fun writing these and hopefully you have fun reading them! Now as always, please enjoy!

Finn was shocked as his and Marcelines lips met and he felt the cold sensation of his skin against hers. His thoughts were rushing through his head at a million miles an hour, all the times she's made suggestive jokes, when he asked her to the movies and she said she didn't like him in a romantic way. All of it, where was this coming from he thought, is this real, is he dreaming? Time was moving so slow but his heart was beating so fast.

It felt like several minutes that they had been missing but it had only been seconds. Shortly after it had began Marceline pulled her lips away from Finn's revealing that she was blushing as she did. Finn's face however was beat red and filled with shock, stuck in an almost screaming state. The shock had taken over his entire body and although he felt like he was on fire he couldn't move like he was frozen.

"F-finn, are you okay?" Marceline asked in an embarrassed manner. He face was tilted down as an attempt to hide her embarrassment but Finn could still see how red her checks were.

She reached out for him and just as she did Finn regained the ability to move and jumped backwards. "Oh why won't you look at the time I've got to go!" He said making his way to the door.

"Wait Finn!" Marceline called out to him and again attempted to reach for him.

Finn rushed over to the door and threw it upon and began sprinting out of the cave. "See you later Marceline! Thanks for watching the movie with me!" He shouted back at the house making his way out of the cave and leaving Marceline alone floating in the door way of her house.

"Oh my g! Oh my g! Oh my g!" He said running back to the tree house, waking up almost all the animals in the woods that he passed. He kicked the door open of his home and quickly made his way up the ladder to his bedroom and jumped across the room into the bed. In one quick movement he bounced on the bed and grabbed the blankets and wrapped himself in it before he landed back down again. Although his entrance caused quite a lot of noise neither Jake or BMO seemed to even stir in there resting places.

Night turned to day and everyone arose from there sleep, everyone except for Finn who had not slept at all. He laid in the same place he landed last night after bunkering down for a long night of thought. Jake attempted to wake Finn several times but after his lack of reaction Jake decided to let him rest. Finn ran the scenario through his head again and again, every movement, every word, looking for something that would had given him hints towards what happened. He could tell after recalling Marceline's face that she wasn't making a joke to get under his skin again. When she messes with him her eyes are glued waiting to see his reaction, but she shielded herself after so he could not see her reaction.

It just didn't make sense to him, and to make the matters worse the more he thought about it the worst he felt. When Marceline told him he wasn't interested in him, he put up a subconscious shield causing him to not ever think of her in that way. But she was still his friend and the second she showed emotions towards him, he ran away. He was out of the lady game, he didn't know how he felt about Marceline in a romantic way, but he wished he had at least stayed. He wished that he had the chance to talk to her about it without the memory of him running away always in-between them.

Suddenly a ringing was heard coming from the other room, it was the royal telephone. Finn could hear Jake talking with someone on the other line, but he couldn't make out what Jake was saying. After a couple minutes Jake finished the class and stretched into the room.

"Finn you awake?" Jake asked staring a the bundled blanket containing Finn inside, Finn nodded his head. "Well that was Princess Bubblegum, she said Peppermint Butler's 300th year of service is coming up and asked for us to make some everything burritos for the occasion!"

Finn remained silent

"The only problem is that I need some of those nightosphere bananas to add to the bunch" Jake continued furthering the conversation.

"But the nightosphere was closed off to all none demons, no one can open the portal but them", Finn said muffled under the fabric.

"And luckily we know a demon" Jake said with a smug look on his face, obviously referring to Marceline. He stretched out of the room leaving Finn again, all alone.

Finn sat up causing the blanket to come off of the upper half of his body and he shielded his eyes from the light, having incased himself in darkness for many hours. He turnt his head and looked out the window, this time however the moon was not insight. "It had to be Marceline..." He said to himself removing his hand from his eyes, now that they had adjusted. He wasn't mad at Marceline and glob knew he still wanted to be friends, but he was afraid. He was afraid that she would be mad. He was afraid that she wouldn't want to be friends. Finn had lost battles, lost treasures and lost just about anything he could of had, but by far the thing that hurt the most to lose was a friend.

He shortly returned to the world of the living, or so it would have seemed at the amazement of Jake when he stepped into the kitchen. Jake knew something was up and Finn knew Jake knew, but Jake wasn't going to pry. Having a girlfriend and children after a life of crime left Jake with more secrets that he could count, so for Finn's sake he would wait for Finn to tell him. Jake motioned Finn to the table and to take a seat, as Finn did so Jake sat a bowl In Front of him, full of spaghetti and fruit.

"What time is it? And what is this?" Finn asked without a smile on his face.

"It is time for you to eat bro, and it's spaghetti with fruit, it's a new thing I'm trying to start", Jake answered in as a cheerful a mood as he always was.

Finn didn't really feel like eating but he was defiantly hungry, he didn't get to enjoy any of his bowl of various foods last night. He knew he would need the energy for the trip to the nightosphere, so he decided to eat. He ate the spaghetti first and then the fruit after until there was only one piece left... A strawberry. He pushed it around the plate a bit with his fork, Jake noticed it and attempted to interact with Finn.

"All done bro?" He asked getting ready to grab the plate from Finn.

"I don't know" Finn replied quietly not taking his eyes of the fruit.

Time passed and as it did Finn slowly began to return to his normal self, but he still knew that the closer it got to night so less time remained before he would be face to face with Marceline again. Sure enough before he knew it the sun was setting and the preparation began. Jake wrapped his arm around Finn and stretched him up to his back and took off carrying him over the woods. With a birds eye view and such long legs carrying him, the distance they would have to travel seemed much less then when he was on foot.

He looked down at the tops of the trees and stared as they passed one by one, "you know the woods get pretty dark at night" he said to Jake. One of the first attempts or him to start a conversation all day.

"Of course man, words are already pretty dark during the day" Jake replied eager to continue the conversation.

Finn laughed to himself, "yeah... Yeah."

Finally when they towered over the entrance to Marceline's cave, Jake began to shrink until he was normal size and Finn was on the ground. The two walked into the cave and up to Marceline's door which was already open. They peaked inside and saw Marceline sitting on the ground poking a black and white die around. Of course Finn knew what the die was too.

"Hey M, baby, we are here to request your services!" Jake said joking acting like a business man.

Marceline turned around and after realizing it was them floated up and spoke, "oh hey guys come on in", notably less down then Finn was with his first encounter of the day, but not exactly jumping with joy either. "What can I do for you" Marceline said playing along with Jake and giving a more animated performance.

This made Finn smile, clearly she wasn't in as bad spirit as he was. The two told her about there need of entrance to the nightosphere and retrieval of some bananas.

"Gross, you guys eat that stuff!?" Marecline said laughing a lot. "Well yeah I can help you" she said, which brought great joy to both of the boys face, most notable Finn.

He was really glad, that Marceline didn't show any bitter feelings towards him after the events of last night and that all his worrying seemed for nothing.

"The only problem is that I don't have any bug milk left, I need you to go get some", Marceline showing an empty container of bug milk, and tilling it over to emphasize that it was completely empty.

"All right lets do this!" Finn and Jake said in unison as they prepared to go retrieve some, however Finn was stopped when he felt a hand on his shoulder just as he turned to leave. When he turned around Marceline gave him a serious look like she had something important to say then turned to Jake.

"By that I meant you Jake", she said in a very bland emotionless way to Jake and he continued to exit alone.

"Don't have to much fun without me you two!" He shouted back as he bolted out of the cave in search bug milk.

Finn slowly turned around until he was facing Marceline, "oh hey Marcy what's up?" He said very obviously nervous, even adding a short fake laugh to the end.

"Look, I get that you didn't like that I kissed you and you obviously don't like me in that way but I feel like we should still talk about what happened.

Finn let his guard down and noticeably relaxed a little more now that all the awkwardness could be off the table. "It's not that I didn't like it Marcy... It's just that when I asked you to the movies you told me not to go down that road with you. Every since then I've cut off any thoughts of that nature, I don't know how to feel about you in that way."

Marceline remembered what she told Finn, but feelings can change, after being alive for over 1,000 years she could say that with first hand experience. "Well what if I told you I want to go down that road with you?" She asked patiently waiting for a response.

Finns face blushed and he struggled to find what he thought would be the right words to say. "I like you Marceline, you're one of my best friends, and I don't want that to change. You're a radical dame that likes to play games with me head and Im a blissfully ignorant adventure that you can mess with all you want, that's how it's always been." Even hearing himself say those words made him feel like a cold person, he did find Marceline attractive and did like her personality a great deal, but could she be his girlfriend?

"Listen Finn, I've always been by your side through it all, every tear when you were crying over her majesty princess bubblegum. Every burn from that insane flaming girl, but when is it my turn?!" Marceline's voice conk tied to rise causing her to go into a state of a talking quite loud but not the point of yelling quite yet.

Finn could tell by the way she spoke that she really wasn't just messing with his head, she actually meant what she was saying.

"I'm just tired of seeing you try so hard for everyone except me." She said her voice trailing off into a whisper.

Before Finn had the chance to respond Jake stretched back into the door holding a carton of Bug Milk in his hand. "Everyone ready for a nightospheric adventure!?"
