Heya everyone! I'm glad you liked the last chapter hehe. And for this chapter I decided to skip the weeks of her healing, cause it would have been boring if I hadn't haha. I think this is my favourite chapter so far. :) Enjoy!

~Marshall's POV~

It was now the end of the fifth and final week of Fionna's imprisonment in the stuffy tree house. Today would be the day when she finally got cut out of her old and disgusting casts, she was now completely healed. It was unfortunate that human bodies healed so much slower than vampire ones.

I would be bringing the ecstatic Fionna over to the Candy Cane hospital after lunch today. I was extremely happy that she would now be free to do whatever she wished, but was also a little sad. I won't be spending near as much time as I have with her in the past five weeks.

It may not seem like it for Fionna, but for me the weeks flew by. I had an excuse to spend every waking second with her, I also had this unexplainable feeling that I NEEDED to be with her, to protect her. She brightens up my world. Life is no longer grey and boring; Fionna brought happiness to my life.

"Marshall!" Fionna yelled from her messy bedroom, interrupting my thoughts

"Yes, my stinky bunny?"

"You almost done making lunch? I can't wait to get this gross thing off my bod!"

"Ya, ya, I'm bringing it up right now! Don't worry, you'll get to that stupid Candy Kingdom soon enough!" I yelled back while moving the bacon pancakes from the frying pan onto her plate.

As I floated up the ladder and handed the plate to Fionna, she blushed.

"Marshall, thanks a bunch for taking care of me all this time. You're a pretty awesome dude. I don't know what I would do without you."

Well what else would I do? Your my best bud. Who else would I chill with? Gumbutt?" We both laughed, no longer feeling awkward about her sudden comment.

There were a few minutes of silence, other than the loud and hungry Fionna shoveling in her food impatiently. After she finished, she pushed away the plate and looked eagerly toward me, silently asking me to float her to the Candy Kingdom.

"Fine. Let's go." I chuckled, and Fionna squealed with joy. I grabbed my black umbrella and we headed out the door.

"Finally!" Fionna yelled. "I'm free!" She practically skipped with every step she took.

"So now that you're healed, what do you wanna do?" I asked, expecting her to choose an epic quest of serving justice.

"I think I want to take a walk. With you Marshy" she playfully poked me in the stomach.

"No battling evil monsters? Strangling pixies? Paying a visit to the Ice Queen?"

"Nope."

"Okay then. Where do ya wanna go?"

"Anywhere. It doesn't matter." She smiled, twirling dramatically in a circle.

"Well then. What are we waiting for?" I grabbed her hand and we ran towards a nearby forest.

I grabbed my umbrella tighter as we ran as fast as we could throughout the beautiful forest never stopping till we got to the end. As we ran birds fluttered out of their trees in song, tiny animals scurried on the ground in fright, and a few butterflies flitted in our faces. The light was shining intermittently through the thick leafy trees. At the end of the forest was a huge cliff, looking over the land of Aaa.

"Hey dude check it out! I can see my house from here!" Fionna giggled as she sat down on edge of the cliff, letting her legs dangle freely. I sat directly across from her, floating in mid air.

"I come here sometimes. Ya know, just thinking about life and stuff." I said leaning back on the breeze.

"Cool. I always do that on the roof of the tree house"

The sun was now setting. We sat in silence watching the magnificent view before us both. I looked toward Fionna. The golden bangs protruding from her hat were practically glowing.

Once the sun was completely gone and the huge moon was in view, I hooked my umbrella to one of my belt loops and looked towards Fionna, smirking.

"Dare you to jump." I challenged.

"You're telling me to jump off a cliff?"

"Yup"

"No way! I just got healed!"

"I'll catch you, ya weenie!"

"Are you sure? It's a long way down..."

"You can trust me. Go ahead, jump!"
Fionna stood up, looking hesitantly down the steep cliff. It was at least 600 feet high.

Seeing her hesitation, I grabbed her bunny hat off her head and I flew down about a hundred feet. I teased her, waving her bunny hat above my head up towards her.

"Hey! Give that back!" Fi yelled down at me, laughing.

"If you want it. Come and get it!"

She then backed away a couple feet, ran towards the edge of the cliff, and jumped, laughing, determined to get her beloved head gear back.

~Fionna's POV~

The air rushed past me. I felt weightless. I felt free. My long blond hair flowing freely behind me, it felt as if I were flying.

I screamed in joy and even managed to pull off a few flips. I was getting closer and closer to Marshall with crazy speed, his arms outstretched, ready to catch me.

Instead of falling into Marshall's arms, I flew right past him. I looked up toward him in shock and started to scream, reaching my arms towards him wishing I had Cake's stretching powers.

"Marshall!" I screamed. I went from being elated to terrified in a matter of seconds.
He flew straight down, racing towards me. Almost so fast I couldn't see where he went. I flailed my arms around, as if there was something I could grab a hold of. The ground coming closer and closer every second. I covered my eyes in fear.

Instead of feeling the impact of my body smashing against the ground and shattering every one of my bones, I felt strong arms grab a hold of me. I was now moving skyward, no longer falling to my death.

I slowly uncovered my eyes to see a grinning Marshall Lee staring down at me. I let out a huge sigh of relief as we floated toward the moon.

"I told you that you could trust me" he whispered softly.

"You're such an idiot." I replied, hugging him tightly.

"You didn't really think I'd let you die, did you?" He questioned.

"Well... the thought did cross my mind."

"No matter what Fi, I'll always be there to catch you." He said still whispering, returning my hug.

"You promise?"

"I promise." He murmured, slowly flying toward the tree house
