Chapter 10: Flame Exchange
"So, if Finn and Flame Princess are dating… what do you think about us?" Fionna inquires folding the aluminum into little shapes around Fire Prince. She didn't realize the weight of the question until she looked up at him and saw the look on his face looking down at hers. It was so strong and intimidating, but his eyes were gentle and kind. Flustered she quickly changed the topic. "Do you think you have a nickname too? Should we give you one?" Flame prince looks at her curiously. "You ask a lot of questions."
"And you answer nothing." Fionna looks at him smiling satisfied with her comeback. It wasn't a very good one, but it was good enough. "I just mean Flame Prince has no power to it." She turns to look at him to see his eyes solidly locked on hers listening to every word. "And you seem… like a powerful," She peeks at his body. "—Man."
He looks away from her and sits back comfortably on the foil sculpted mattress. "You're kinda cute Fionna, and you have got a very good point." He looks back at her.
"That we should find you a better name?" Fionna asks.
"That we probably are supposed to be dating." Flame Prince answered coming closer to Fionna. She felt the heat as he got closer and closer but she didn't pull away. She waited for the embrace, however it may be. Flame Prince lifts his hand and brings it to her cheeks as if he intended to touch it. Instead he outlines the perimeter of her face, taking extra care to not touch her skin, but be close enough to feel like he was. Fionna watched, careful to not take a single breath. Flame Prince moved his face in closer, and she began to closer her eyes as they teared from the approaching heat. He zoned in on her puckered pink lips—
The door swung open, and fire princess looks on in disgust as they pulled away in surprise. She pulled the icing and threw it to Flame Princess's feet. "Looks like you'll need this more than I will." She re-ignited and set fire to Finn's bed and stormed out in a flaming rage. Fionna instinctively began to put it out with the closest duve. Flame Prince followed instinctively behind her.
"Wait—" Fionna called out. She finished putting out the fire and began to follow the two behind but was cut off by a hand in the door way. A grey and very cold hand attached to a very grey cold man.
"Don't get overwhelmed by me too quickly." Marshall Lee floated toward her causing her to walk back into the room backward. "I know a charming face like this could be too charming for a good little girl like you." He shut the door firmly with his foot.
