Finn continued to smile at the princess while her faces remained shocked, her mind overrun with emotions and questions that needed answers.
"Finn where have you being?." Finn went to answer but his eyes went to the back of his head as he collapsed into the hard ground bracing the princess in his arms. Bubblegum found her arms shaking the hero's body and resting in on her knees. His eyes slowly opening to reveal a light blue mirror of toxins.
"I'm sorry Bb are you okay?" she nodded her head slowly, greeting him with a smile.
"Good.. However, can I fill you in on the details another day? I just got back today from a very long trip in fact it was seven years long. I was going to go straight home to sleep but I remembered it was Stormo's birthday and I've missed it for the last 7 years. So I knew I had to come here, on the way it started to rain so I'm drenched, I really want to rest." He delivered his speech in a cheeky tone till he rested his head and eyes when he revealed how tired he was.
"Stay here for the night!" Finn slightly lifted his head and scowled at the princess's overdramatic comment.
"Bb I shouldn't bother you, I've being gone seven years, now I'm back and you'd really want to put me up for the night?" All she could do was smile.
The warm air of the castle welcomed the two as the entered. Bubblegum looked over as a relaxed sigh was released from Finn's lips.
"Oh I know how warm it is I must make sure I live in absolute luxury. I mean come on I created a kingdom and then managed to rule it." Her posture improved and so did the confidence in her voice.
"Well." Said the blonde figure as he leaned over to shoulder bump the princess. "Did you forget that I was only 13 and still managed to save the world a thousand times over." Bubblegum bit her lip trying to suppress a smile, while Finn started to chuckle.
"Idiot.. You'll have to tell me about why you were gone for seven years the world better of being on the edge of being destroyed!" The princess ran a bit in front of Finn and stood in his path. Pointing at the blonde headed fool.
"Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. I still remember the way to your bedroom. I better stay in your room as I'm the guest in your home tonight." He wasn't fazed by the princess and continued to walk past her.
Bubblegum just smiled to herself, worry was hidden behind her smile but she'd get answers in the morning. She hoped there was no rush, that her friend wouldn't leave her again.
"You can sleep in my bed IF! You promise you'll be here in the morning." She stood straight in the spot that Finn had past her in only moments ago. As she turned to look at Finn she saw his face in a scowl.
"Of course I will be, but tomorrow morning I do hope I can wake up in my own bed. Unless you'll let me take your bed to my home." She bit her lip again and talked with confidence that she effortless oozed.
"Bahh what are you talking abut? You're only allowed to sleep in my bed tonight because you're exhausted, duh. In addition, that bed in my bed for a reason, it's the best of the best. Just like me." she winked and ran to the Hero's side. "I'll sleep on the couch near my desk it's very comfortable."
The breathed sharply as she entered her bedroom. The window latch had been knocked off opening the large double door windows. Finn clothes the windows but the room was left lifeless and cold.
"God damn it I wasn't expecting that." She held her skinny shoulders shaking most of her body. Finn just smirked winking at the bed. The princess's heart started to race at the thought, yet she rejected the idea but Finn spoke before she could.
"Lucky I got the bed you still have to set up you bed!" she blushed that she thought such a stupid idea, but luckily she wouldn't have to reject Finn and make things awkward.
She mumbled over and started to gather blankets from a box resting on a wall of her bedroom. She dropped the pile on the couch to rest her arms; she stole a look at Finn to make sure he was okay. Yet she was welcomed by a more fruity image. Finn was stripping off the layers of wet clothes that hugged his body revealing layers of scars. Beyond the scars was a muscular body that was no longer scrawny and childlike. Finn hadn't only grown but he'd matured his body, she wondered what hid behind his still childlike smile. She felt her heart drop wondering how he got those layers of scars that marked his body, knowing that he's always be reminded of what happened to him. She became frighten to know what had happened to him. Before he could see her staring at him, she continued to make her nest that would be her bed for the night.
"Sneaky." Bubblegum looked over to see Finn propped up on the bed. "I know I'm very sexy, I've heard it from many other girls, I've seen all the stares that they give Me." he chuckled to himself kissing his upper arms to then snuggle himself into the bed.
"What have you being doing these past years!"
"Not telling." He chimed back straight away. She just sighed and then imaged all the girls that would have swooned over her friend. Back before Finn had left lots princesses had fancied him for the way that he'd ignored the girls advances on him. They called it attractive it kept them keen, yet she knew that Finn just didn't understand of many he just didn't care. While he was away he could of being with many girls, this made Bubblegum's face heat with embarrassment.
"What's this?" Finn called from the other side of the room. As he was once again propped up on the bed holding a remote.
"Oh that's a remote for the lights in this room." She answered back still absorbed in making her bed. He chucked back staring at her as he looked at the remote then to her again, everything went black and no light was anywhere to be found asides from the soft glow coming from under the bathroom door.
"Whoops looks like the lights went out well goodnight Bb." Tired of trying she shook her head and collapse onto her pile of un-ordered blankets and pillows.
"Goodnight I suppose."
