I present you... *pause for effect* ... CHAPTER 7! It also happens to be my longest chapter yet! ^_^
I sat at the breakfast table in the tree house with Fionna and Cake. They'd sort of just been gaping at me for a while. I suppose they had reason to; I had just told them that I was from a parallel universe – I'd just found out that this universe was called "Aaa" – and that I now had get some to fall in love with me in order to get back home.
'Whoa,' Fionna said. After a very long pause from the two of them, Cake added, 'Dude, we've gotta go on a manhunt.'
My head drooped forwards and I ran my fingers through my hair. I don't know why, but it had suddenly occurred to me: 'I need to take a shower,' I said quietly. I smelled bad, and there was no way I was going to make someone fall in love with me smelling like this. Fionna and Cake seemed to have come to that conclusion before me.
'We know,' Fionna said, looking a little grossed out. I only noticed then that both of them had been trying to breathe through their mouths. Embarrassing, to say the least.
The Fionna and Cake showed me to their bathroom – which really wasn't necessary, I had lived here once, after all – and I closed the door and stripped out of my clothes, discarding them into a dusty corner.
I stepped into the shower and turned the hot water on, adding a bit of cold. For the first time since arriving in Aaa, I smiled. I almost completely forgot about my situation and just stood there and enjoyed the water washing over me.
I washed my hair with Fionna's strawberry shampoo, not going near Cake's pet shampoo. The smell wafting off the shampoo was reminding me of how hungry I was.
I turned the tap off and stepped out the shower, wrapping myself up in a towel Fionna said I could keep.
I suddenly realised I had nothing to wear. My clothes stank and there was no way in hell that I was going to borrow any of Fionna's clothes. She looked like a demented blue rabbit on a sugar rush (no offence to Fionna fans).
I pulled the towel tighter around myself and went downstairs. Fionna and Cake were playing video games on Bee-Ma, as I had been expecting them to.
Cake looked at me, obviously noticing my covered-by-nothing-but-a-towel-ness.
'Girl, what're you wearing?'
'A towel,' I snapped at her. To be honest, I'd never really liked Jake that much, and Cake was even more overprotective of Fionna than Jake had been of Finn; not to mention a big wuss.
Fionna paused the video game and looked over to me. 'Dude, why're you wearing a towel?'
I rolled my eyes. 'Because I would rather go out with Ice King before I dressed up as a demented blue bunny.'
Fionna and Cake gave me a funny look over the Ice King comment. Fionna got over the initial confusion first, then realised what I'd said.
'I do not look like a demented blue bunny!' she retorted. Her face had turned a bright red colour.
I laughed. 'Whatever you say,' I said sarcastically. 'But seriously, what am I going to wear?' Fionna and Cake shrugged. 'Well I can't exactly go on a manhunt dressed in a towel!'
'Actually,' Cake said, snickering. 'I think guys would be all over you.'
I could feel myself blushing like an idiot, and I pulled the towel tighter around myself.
The two sisters started laughing at me, hugging their sides. 'G-guys!' I shouted. I blushed a deeper shade of red. 'Sh-shut up!'
'Don't worry, Marceline,' Cake said in between fits of laughter. 'We'll go to the mall and find you something to wear.'
'Thanks,' I said with grudging acceptance.
Fionna and Cake went shopping, so I was left at the treehouse be myself. It seemed like as every minute went by, the towel got more revealing. I sighed. This was going to be a long day.
Oh, and Kyla (should I call you that or would you prefer Klaudia?), the towel bit was inspired by "The Genius and the Delinquents" :D
Hey readers! Go read "The Genius and the Delinquents" by kyla123! It's AWESOME! And it's Marceleee!
No need to thank me kyla, your story deserves it! ;D (plus you're like my best reviewer...) *fist pump*
