It was late Friday night in July, and Fionna sat in the family room playing video games. She was having a sleep over with two of the few people at work she could bare to be around. The first was her old schoolmate and friend Marceline, she still reminded the blonde a lot of Marshall, she was tall and slim as usual, but her long hair had been cut into a short punkish style once again. She and Fionna met about a month after the concert where she'd met up with Marshall, as it turns out her band had also played that concert and had been the act before them, she was their bass player, she was a bit on the quiet side at work but when she spoke people knew to listen...every now and then she also called Fionna by Marshall's nickname for her, Fi, it still caught her off guard when she did so.

The seconds name was Lisa Sue Perry or as Fionna dubbed her LSP. She was a strange one LSP, Finn had introduced them last year at his birthday party and it was because of her Fionna had this job. She had wavy brown hair and dark eyes and looked a tad on the heavier side, but that was only because the layers of clothes she always wore…it made her look lumpy for lack of a better word...actually lumpy was a good word since the girl was obsessed with said word and any variation of it, she was also very loud. Despite her obnoxious demeanor they had actually become good friends though LSP liked to gossip about people a bit too much for Fionna's liking. Honestly Fionna was still kind of mad at her about the kinky birthday present that she'd gotten her for her birthday…

"So have you done it yet?" The wavy haired girl asked focusing on the game she, Marceline, and Fionna were playing.

"Done what?" The blonde asked obliviously now button mashing the controller as the black haired girl beside her snickered pressing buttons and began wailing on the blonde with an ultra-combo, and knowing she was stuck Fionna scowled trying to button mash her way to freedom. LSP sighed dropping the paddle dramatically and lowering her voice she turned to the blonde who paused the game to pay attention.

"Oh MY LUMPING GLOB Fionna! Done IT. It, you know IT with Marshall." She said giving the blonde a look. It took a moment for Fionna to understand and when she did her face burned red.

"No!" She hissed hurriedly getting up and checking that the door to the family room was shut. The last thing she needed was for her mother to hear this conversation.

"Come on Fionna what's the holdup you like him don't you?" The brunette asked now staring at Fionna.

"Of course I do, and I think I want to…but he won't. The farthest we've gone is touching with some clothes off."

"You just have to go out there and bare your lumps to him!"

"What the heck kind of advice is that?" Marceline asked scowling at LSP. Once again LSP sighed as Fionna simply stared at her completely lost.

"Your lumps, you know…" The wavy haired teen said leaning over and poking the blonde's chest making Fionna smack her hand away.

"Hey!" The blonde yelped with a blush.

"Your lumps, the girls."

"What do they have to do with anything!?" Fionna asked holding her chest protectively.

"Guys can't resist a nice pair of lumps Fionna."

"So you're saying I should flash Marshall." Fionna said skeptically.

"That's a horrible idea she can't just do that!"

"She's gotta do something!"

"LSP, it won't work like that…" Marceline said now glaring at her.

"I think in this case, it's all about timing." The blonde said looking up at the ceiling and watching the fan spin above them.

"What the lump does that mean?"

"Well I think Marsh is afraid that sex might ruin our relationship so he doesn't want to rush into it…I mean he said he wanted to wait until I was ready…and I'm pretty sure I am, and it's been a few months since I thought that."

"You need to take the reins in this relationship Fionna. If you guys never get to all that lumping how will you really know that you love each other?"

"What does that have to do with anything? People can love each other without having sex. And people can have sex without loving each other." Marceline said in a matter of fact voice.

"Yeah what Marcy said." Fionna said wondering where LSP was going with this.

"Well every woman wants to be married to a guy who's great in bed. Glob that's common knowledge."

"Ok, this isn't the strangest conversation I've ever had." Fionna said putting her head in her hand making Marceline laugh.

"Glob Fionna I'm being lumping serious!" The lumpy teen said crossing her arms.

"Me too." The blonde said bemused. "Marshall's mother gave us the sex talk in her car once that beats this by far."

"So when do you see him again?"

"Tomorrow Marcy, I'm spending the night there and FP's bringing me back the next afternoon because he's visiting his grandma Sunday and I have to work, then after that it's all of next weekend because we have two shows Friday and Saturday."

"Well there you go, that's plenty of time for you guys to get your lump on."

"Oh Glob. Can we stop talking about this?" The blonde asked with her cheeks brightening, LSP staring at her incredulously.

"No! Fionna you have to like lumping promise me that when I see you next you'll have gone farther with him than you guys have ever gone, like ever."

"But LSP-

"Promise Me!" LSP said now leaning over the blonde making her almost fall over.

"Ahh! Ok I promise!"

"You don't have to promise to something like that!"

"Good! My work is done. Night Fionna, Night Marcy!" With that the teen walked over to where her pillow and blankets were near the couch pulled them over her head and almost instantaneously had fallen asleep.

"What in Glob's name was that about?" Marceline said sharing a look with the very confused blonde.

"I have no idea…Marcy what do I do?" Fionna asked now staring at her friend feeling hopelessly lost.

"Just take your time with stuff like this, its' best not to rush into it ya know? I mean if you just throw him your V-card he'll expect it all the time and won't be appreciative when he actually gets some. Besides sometimes it's honestly best to wait, my first time was kind of a disastrous success, hell it was at a post prom party too, I was so drunk…" she said with a laugh.

"I'm sorry to hear that."

"Yeah it's all good, the past is what it is and all that. Just take your time Fionna and if you feel ready let him know and if he's not ready respect his wishes and wait, besides don't all good things come in time?"

"Well that does make sense…"

"Definitely does. Besides, it wasn't all that bad he sure as hell knew what he was doing." She said with a yawn stretching, and standing she walked over to the loveseat plopping on it.

"Well…what happened?" Fionna asked curiously.

"You really want to go over the nitty gritty details of my first time?" Marcy asked with a laugh as Fionna's face turned red once again.

"I didn't mean it like that! But you said it was a disastrous success…what does that mean?"

"Ahhh, I get it, well I'm not proud of it you know, I kind of expected my first time to be with somebody I had actually known for more than four hours and not a one night stand but hey, things happen. It started off all good with the making out and stuff, I mean we were both pretty drunk so inhibitions were pretty low and hormones were up, so we go into the first empty bedroom we find and we're kinda going at it like really making-out with all the touching and whatever. So we end up on the bed and at this point even drunk as hell I know we're gonna have sex, so he's kissing his way down my legs and my GLOB Fionna, that thing he did with his tongue and, oh glob it was amazing…I give him an A+ in oral skills that's for sure." Marceline said laughing with a blush on her face.

"Ummm, the disastrous part?" Fionna asked her face pink.

"Oh right, heh, sorry. Right so I guess with how chilled out I was he thought that I was more experienced than I was, so no warning nothing just after he gets the condom on he just slams into me, and glob knows that hurt like hell so I screamed and that freaked him the heck out and just out of natural reaction I punched him. I mean that totally threw off our groove because one minute we're all hot and heavy, and the next I'm yelling in pain and he's getting a face full of my fist." She said nonchalantly as Fionna stared in shock.

"And then?"

"Well it didn't take him any longer than that to figure out that I was a virgin because he panicked, like a lot, apologizing up a storm saying he didn't know, which obviously I hadn't expected him too. But at that point he just wouldn't shut-up, so I grabbed him and kissed him, I mean the worst part was already over so why put yourself through the pain if you're gonna quit because of it ya know? I mean that would just be stupid. So I was just like screw it we're doing this, and he SO made up for it, like I'm not kidding I think he was the best I'll ever get."

"What makes you think that?" The blonde asked curious. Surely a one night stand couldn't be the best thing she'd get in the world of sexual pleasures. Now Marceline laughed her face tinting pink.

"Fi, I have only two words for that question. Orgasm central. I told you he made up for it he was completely determined to, after the fourth one I thought I was gonna die and stopped counting them, so disastrous success it was."

"I can see that…not to sound rude but do you even know who he was?"

"I can't remember his name but I remember what he looked like, he left his 'number' in my phone under his initials, but what guy has a mind blowing one night stand and willingly gives you his number for you to call him the next day? So I figured it was crap and never called it. Like I always hoped it was real but never tried calling it. Hell if it was real I could have dated a hottie and had awesome sex frequently! But whatever, I can't miss what I've never had. I'm going to bed…Advice for you, if you over think it you'll just give yourself a headache, just go with the flow, you know?"

"Ok, I'll try, Night Marcy."

"Night Fi."

'Oh Glob…what have I gotten myself into?' The blonde thought with a sigh as she too climbed into her blankets nestled on the couch and letting sleep take her, she hoped that tomorrow would be a good day.

O0o0o0

Marshall had finished cleaning up his place, it had been a complete sty especially since he let FP crash for the last week now, but since Fionna was coming over he'd booted the red head from his house effectively evicting him from the couch and forcing him to play nice with his sister once again. The last of the dishes had been washed when he heard a knock on the door before it opened.

"Marsh I'm here!" he heard her call as he shut the water off wiping his hands on his jeans. Marshall made it to the threshold the same time Fionna did and caught her in his arms pulling the blonde close for a kiss.

"I missed you." He said with a smile breaking the kiss and watching as Fionna's pink face slowly returned to a normal color.

"I missed you too. I brought the movies." Fionna said holding up her backpack with a grin. If anything her parents had an awesome collection of horror movies. Digging them out Fionna put her bag at the end of the couch and the large stack of movies on the corner table. They'd gone through two of the movies without much going on, and the whole time Fionna's mind was racing.

"You just have to go out there and bare your lumps to him!" LSP's voice said ringing through her thoughts.

'Ok I can do this.' She thought unzipping her sweatshirt and casually pulling it off revealing a low cut tank top meant to act as an undershirt. Once free of her garment she snuggled closer to Marshall who glanced at her curiously.

'With the AC on it's freezing in here, why's she taking her sweatshirt off?' That made little sense to him so in an effort to keep her warm Marshall pulled the blonde close as the movie continued on.

'Oh glob it's FREEZING in here!' The blonde thought trembling after a good half hour had passed.

"Fi are you cold?"

"Nope."

"Ahh, then why are you shaking? This movie's not that scary." Crap now it was either admit to being a pansy scaredy cat or admit to being cold and be questioned to why she took her sweatshirt off.

"Yeah it's kinda cold in here." She said softly unwilling to wound her pride. Shaking his head Marshall got up and after a few minutes returned with a blanket and a bowl of popcorn.

"Here," He said sitting down and lifting the end for Fionna to scoot under which she gratefully did snuggling close to Marshall for warmth. "I turned the AC off too so that should help in a bit."

"Okay."

"Are you ok Fionna? You seem quieter than usual."

'Other than trying to come up with a way to not break my promise to LSP I'm fine.' The blonde thought miserably.

"Oh I didn't notice I've been too into the movies." Fionna said shrugging.

"Okay…?" Turning back to the screen Marshall wasn't convinced, something was up with Fionna and he was gonna figure out what. Taking his hand he slowly ran it down the blonde's arm watching as she tensed at the sudden contact before relaxing under his touch, and seeing this Marshall smirked knowing that the answers he was seeking would soon be found, after all Fionna always developed a serious case of word vomit when she was flustered. This was a proven tested method he'd used on Fionna multiple times now.

With his free hand Marshall reached over tilting the blonde's head to face him as he leaned forward brushing his lips lightly over hers making Fionna scoot closer for more contact. He kissed her cheeks, then her forehead, then her chin drawing close to her lips once again as he rested his forehead slightly against hers giving the blonde another light kiss.

Fionna was blushing hard and he could tell feeling the heat radiating from her face. After the third of the light kisses Fionna leaned forward crashing her lips against his wanting much more than what he was giving. His free hand still caressing her arm pulled it up to his neck and Fionna responded bringing the other around as his hands settled on her waist as they continued kissing.

"You gonna tell me what's on your mind now?" he asked, and shaking her head Fionna kissed him again. Marshall mentally huffed, usually she word vomited by now, time for stage two…

Breaking his kiss and allowing the blonde to breathe Marshall's fingers touched the bare skin under her tank top and slowly lifted it up and much to his surprise the blonde leaned back allowing the shirt to come up over her head, and when she leaned close once again he kissed her, running his hands up and down her arms and caressing her back. Slowly he kissed down her jaw making his way to her neck, kissing the spot where her neck and shoulder met practically making the blonde melt as Fionna let out a quiet groan as she closed her eyes letting the sensations take her.

His hands which had been caressing her back now settled on her waist, one sliding along the edge of her jeans until it reached the button and zipper, both which were easily undone. Leaving her jeans on her, just undone Marshall once again broke the kiss leaning back to unbutton and remove his own shirt and under shirt tossing them on the table where Fionna's shirt was. With that done he pulled the blonde close once again reveling in the sensation of her skin against his as he kissed her, his hands once again caressing her arms and back.

"Are you sure you don't have anything on your Mind Fi?" Again she shook her head, and Marshall continued wondering just what to do next.

'Okay, this game of fluster the word vomit out of Fionna is going badly, she's way too into this. Time for stage three…what exactly is stage three?' Marshall thought. Now that he thought about it he'd never had to use it before and wondering if maybe his next thought would work…he wouldn't take it any farther than that tonight. Slowly, very slowly he leaned forward making Fionna lean back underneath him just enough so he could remove her jeans.

He started sliding her jeans slowly down her legs only to be surprised when Fionna lifted her hips making it that much easier for him to do so. He decided to up the ante and began kissing his way down her neck, chest, and tummy as he slowly pulled her jeans all the way down her legs and tossing them aside on the growing clothes pile as he pulled back to remove his own jeans. This was as far as he was taking it, if this, making out in just their underwear, didn't get Fionna to freak out and word vomit then nothing would, and if it didn't then at least they were getting in one hell of a make-out session.

Marshall kissed her once again, kissing her lips, neck, and shoulder as he slowly eased Fionna back so she was lying beneath him as he continued kissing her, his hands running along every available inch of skin they could reach, her arms, and shoulders, her waist, chest, back, belly, butt, and legs making Fionna let out another quiet panting moan.

'Glob she has amazing legs. Crap! Don't get distracted, don't get distracted.' As much as he tried Marshall couldn't help but get distracted when he realized that he was snug between those 'amazing legs' as the blonde squirmed beneath him sounding almost breathless when she spoke.

"Marsh, are- are we…?" Marshall shook his head, he'd made up his mind, not tonight, not now. Quickly he backed away from her but Fionna grabbed his hand.

"Marshall?" Looking up he caught Fionna's eyes as the blonde eased herself into a sitting position, it wasn't about keeping her promise to LSP, if she wanted to be technical she'd kept it the moment he took their pants off, but Fionna wanted this, she knew she was ready and knew she had been for a while. "Would you ever want this with me?" her question caught him off guard.

"Of course I would, but I don't want to rush things Fionna, with you it just, everything means…" he was lost for words, but when Fionna spoke next it summed up what he felt.

"It means so much more?" She asked remembering what he'd told her almost a year ago. Hearing this he nodded.

"It does." He said softly cupping her cheek. "Fionna I want to do things right with you, I don't want to rush anything, I don't want to do this wrong."

"Marshall with you, I do want this, there's no wrong way for this to go." She said softly hoping to reassure him, Marshall still looked unsure though.

"Everything will change. Fionna, things will be different and if we do this…it can take you to a place that even in your wildest dreams you couldn't imagine. It's a place you can't come back from, it can't be undone. Would you honestly be ready for that?"

"With you…yes." She said placing her hand over his and holding it. Marshall sat back and stared at the blonde before him, and she stared back completely unashamed and without fear or reservation, she did want this. Marshall couldn't believe he was having this conversation with her, never did he imagine that it would be happening like this; that he'd be the one giving in when he'd been so determined not to. Letting out a sigh Marshall brought her hand to his lips kissing it and giving her a serious look.

"Okay…sometimes the first time can hurt." He said scooting closer to her. "I don't want to hurt you, ever."

"I know, but I know you would never hurt me on purpose." She said softly leaning back while he leaned over her.

"Let's go upstairs." Marshall said, and the moment she felt her back touch the couch once again, Marshall had scooped her into his arms and carried the blonde up the stairs to his room laying her gently on the bed as he kissed her again.

O0o0o0

He was right, it did hurt, and even though she was expecting the pain she wasn't prepared for it, but all of that melted into insignificance as she was completely overwhelmed by him. Fionna could smell the mix of his body wash and shampoo because they were so close, the feel of his skin against hers was amazing and the taste of his kisses were so sweet. Marshall was right, this absolutely changed everything. Fionna swore that the depth of emotion she felt for him had grown more than she'd ever felt possible for it to do so.

O0o0o0

Glob Fionna was beautiful, her golden hair spilling across the bed in waves, her skin so unimaginably soft, like silk under his hands. The smell of cinnamon and vanilla seemed to be everywhere, and her soft panting breaths were like music to his ears. Her skin was salty and sweet, and was now tinted a lovely shade of pink which Marshall was particularly proud of as he continued kissing her, knowing he was making her feel things she'd never experienced before as her fingers tightened on his shoulder as she let out yet another panting gasp burying her face into his neck as her body trembled.

O0o0o0

Her heart raced, and resting her head on his chest Fionna listened as the racing beat of his heart matched hers. She just lay there with her eyes closed and this goofy smile across her face. That had been utterly phenomenal, definitely worth the wait.

Marshall leaned forward kissing the top of her head trailing his way to her neck before stopping to breathe in the vanilla scent of her hair. Slowly Fionna opened her eyes turning her head to meet Marshall's gaze as he looked tentatively down at her waiting to see what she'd say to what they'd just done together.

"That was…it was…" Fionna said still catching her breath, she couldn't find the words to describe what they'd just done.

"Beyond anything you ever imagined?" Marshall asked grazing along her exposed skin with his fingers.

"You have no idea." Fionna smirked blinking slowly feeling as his fingers tickled her skin. "I think…I'd like to do that again." She said softly feeling as his hand stopped as now Marshall looked at her in surprise before grinning at the blonde laying on him.

"Oh would you?" He asked in amusement watching as Fionna blushed and nodded slowly looking up at him through her lashes with a small smile.

"I would." Marshall pulled the blonde towards him as he kissed her, holding Fionna tightly in his arms as his hands slowly began to wander once again.

"Well…" Marshall said slowly as he reached into the nightstand, once again he began kissing his way down her neck feeling as her skin heated up against his. "I think I can make that happen." He murmured against her neck as Fionna wrapped her arms around him.

O0o0o0o

They both breathed heavily, and holding her close Marshall kissed Fionna's forehead tasting the sweat on her slick skin. After kissing her forehead he kissed her lips trying to keep from collapsing against her, and managing to land right beside her on the bed.

"Are you tired?" Marshall asked sounding exhausted. "Because I won't lie…three times was pushing it and I'm tired…you are tired right?" he asked leaning over the blonde and dropping the used condom in the small barrel with the others.

"A little bit." She lied, tired didn't even cover it, she was completely and utterly shattered, and honestly even if her life depended on it the blonde didn't think she could move, but she didn't want to sleep, she wanted to just lay awake next to Marshall relishing in the remembered sensations, the feel of their shared kisses and the complete unadulterated bliss of his touch.

"Go to sleep, I'll be right here with you when you wake up." Marshall said pulling her close to him once again and kissing her neck as Fionna with a smile nuzzled her head into his chest.

"I don't want to." She said softly, her hands wandering feeling the lightly defined muscles under his skin as she did so.

"Well what do you want to do?" Marshall asked, his hand continuously running up the silky skin of her waist and down past her hip and back up her back.

"Just this, just being here with you…I'm so glad it was you Marshall." Fionna said sleepily feeling as he began playing with her hair, the sensation putting her right to sleep Marshall quickly following suit.

O0o0o0

It was cold, the air conditioning in the room now plainly obvious and he could feel Fionna shivering against him. Opening his eyes Marshall looked around blearily feeling the chilly blonde tremble beside him. While they had been sleeping at some point Fionna had kicked the blankets off of the bed sometime in the night. Climbing from the bed and realizing that they both wore nothing, Marshall blushed, but couldn't help but stare, she was completely and utterly beautiful in the silvery moonlight. Walking to the dresser and pulled on a pair of sweat pants. Digging through the dresser he pulled out an old t-shirt to put on her.

She could hear movement in the room, and looking up Fionna smiled through her sleepiness recognizing the dark hair and his familiar smell, oh Fionna loved the smell of his body wash. Gently Marshall sat the blonde up on his bed supporting her back as she leaned against him, he'd found an old t-shirt, and holding her steady he dressed Fionna in his shirt with the blonde's help, and once she was dressed Marshall let her lay back down and grabbing the blanket off the floor he climbed into the bed next to her pulling Fionna close to him under the blanket as together they drifted off back into sleep their legs tangled together and reveling in the warmth of each-others embrace.

O0o0o0

Fionna woke feeling warm and sleepy as Marshall held her tightly, she was cradled against his chest with her head nestled under his chin. She didn't want to move a single inch, but she knew she had to, she had work at three today and glancing at the clock it was almost 9:30. That gave her a little more than an hour to spend with Marshall before FP would be here to drive her back home.

On the ride home she looked no different, she felt different, but still looked like the same Fionna; honestly she was kind of paranoid that everyone would just somehow know just by looking at her that they'd finally done it. Once she arrived back to her house she only had an hour to get to work and quickly dressed in the t shirt with the park's logo on it and putting on a pair of khaki shorts before hurrying downstairs and asking her dad for a ride. It was a 15 minute drive and almost an hour walk and leaning over to hug her dad in thanks Fionna hopped out of the car and entered the main office where Marceline was behind the desk watching as her friend clocked in.

"Hey Fi how was your yesterday?"

"It was good, really good." She said with a blush making the dark haired girl's eyes gleam as she grinned.

"Oh My LUMPING GLOB Fionna did you keep your promise!?" Fionna laughed.

"Yes LSP I did, making out with less clothes than usual, that counts." Fionna said watching as LSP sighed loudly.

"Good enough, now I gotta go teach these kids how to camp with the essentials, a blanket and a can of beans." The brown haired girl said walking from the office. Fionna sat behind the desk and blushed under her friend's gaze.

"What?" Fionna asked with a smile.

"Come on Fi, how was it?" Marceline asked with a smirk.

"Better than I ever imagined it would ever be." The blonde said unable to stop smiling, her cheeks pink.

"So I take it you had a good time?"

"I wish it never had to stop, but I get why he wanted to wait, and I appreciate him waiting for me." She said softly grabbing several papers from a pile as she began stapling them together. "Like, I know we've been in love all this time, but waiting for so long, it's like the anticipation of it made it even better, does that make sense?"

"Yeah it does, I mean sometimes-" The sound of the door's jingling bell caught Marceline's attention as she stopped speaking, and Fionna hearing only silence looked up to find her friend blushing a lot.

"Marcy what's –

"Girlie! Youleftthisinthetruck, Ihavetogonow, itwasamazingtoseeyouboth. Bye!" FP said quickly tossing her the bag and hurrying from the building.

"Well, he definitely remembers me." Marceline said sitting at her vacated chair and pulling over the pamphlets they were working on and stuffing them into envelopes as Fionna simply stared at her in shock.

"That was the prom guy!? FP's the prom guy!?" she asked looking from Marceline to FP through the glass window who seemed to be pacing back and forth near his truck.

"Yup."

"Go talk to him! It's not like he's dating anyone!"

"What the heck do I say to him!? Oh I had a great one night stand wanna be my boyfriend?" Marceline asked sarcastically.

"I don't know! Certainly not that, but figure something out!" Fionna said throwing her hands in the air. They didn't have to figure something out because the door opened.

"Listen I don't usually do crap like that, okay? Like I try to be a nice guy with flowers and stuff, I don't usually do what we did." Ignitus said trying to be discrete.

"Well I don't do stuff like that either." Marceline said now staring at the red head watching him scratch the back of his head.

"I kinda figured that out." He said watching as her face tinted red. "I just want to apologize, because that's not how it should have happened." He said now looking at the floor rather intently noticing as Fionna nonchalantly left the room leaving them alone. "I'm sorry." He said as Marceline watched Fionna shut the door locking herself in the back room.

"Don't apologize, you were drunk, I was drunk, I had a good time." She said shrugging her shoulders. "It's whatever, it happened last year, we were safe, nobody got knocked up and I didn't get any diseases-

"I'm not diseased!" FP said feeling insulted as Marceline rounded on him.

"I'm saying in general jeeze, one night stands make you worry about that crap!" She snapped watching as he looked down again. "I'm sorry, it's over and done with, there's no point in lingering on it. There's no reason to apologize to me, it was pointless meaningless sex, that's all, nothing more."

"Yeah, I know. Why didn't you ever call me?" he asked curiously.

"I thought the number was a fake, times like that it usually is." She said with a shrug. "Besides I figured at this point you'd be seeing someone and I'm not the type to go chasing guys."

"Yeah I am actually…I have no idea what we are…" he said under his breath staring at the floor before shaking his head and clearing his thoughts.

"But I kinda figured that about you. I mean you were awesome to hang out with and pretty badass too, and I know you and Fionna jam together…"

"Where are you going with this?" she asked curiously.

"I really don't know…maybe we could all hang out together if it was okay."

"Okay maybe, I'll go get Fionna I think she wanted to tell you something anyways." She said walking over to the door. "Fi, we're all done here." She said trading places with the blonde and sitting in the back room listening as the two talked out front.

That was like embarrassment central, like really that sucked…but now that Marceline thought about it she definitely knew where she'd found him now, and that was what had been bugging her the whole time. From what she remembered of that night, they'd been hanging out the whole time which didn't seem right because they were in a small town and she didn't know him. But remembering that Fionna knew him, that he was Marshall's friend, that put the puzzle pieces in her head together on just where he'd come from.

o0o0o0o

"What the heck do you mean you're kind of seeing someone? You either are or aren't. Why haven't I met her either?" The blonde asked with her hands on her hips.

"I don't know what we are! We're doing couple stuff but there's no title. Like I don't know if we're FWB's or if we're dating!" he said leaning on the counter and sounding annoyed. Fionna tilted her head in confusion.

"What's an FWB?" She asked watching as his face burned in embarrassment, his head now resting on the counter along with his arms.

"That's kind of embarrassing Fionna…but to put it in super simple terms it's doing couple stuff without being a couple." (Friends With Benefits)

"Oh so you guys watch movies and hold hands and stuff?"

'Oh Fionna that's so not even close…your innocence is disturbing sometimes…'

"That…that's not exactly what we do." FP said watching as understanding came on Fionna's face.

"Oh…so you guys kiss and make out and stuff."

'…That's closer? …I'm still not telling her though…'

"That's exactly what we do…" he said mentally shaking his head again at her innocence. Now Fionna caught him off guard.

"Why haven't we met her yet? I mean Mo introduced us to Kate last month, so unless she's totally brand new why haven't you brought her to meet us?"

"We've been doing our thing for the last two months. It's like I said, I don't know where we really stand. Sometimes she wants to make-out all the time and then other times she wants to do other stuff and then make-out…there's a lot of making-out." He said getting lost in his thoughts.

"Well do you like her?" the blonde asked curiously.

"Sometimes she can be wicked pushy, but other than that yeah. I guess I do."

"Why don't you ask her to date you? Or do you like somebody else?" Fionna asked now leaning on the counter.

"Listen Girlie, the whole thing's complicated enough as it is now, I'm just gonna leave it alone and see what comes of it okay?" Ignitus asked with a shake of his head and a sigh.

"Okay, that's no problem. Thanks for bringing my bag FP." Fionna said as he turned to walk out the door.

"It's no biggie." He said with a wave. "Tell your friend I said bye."

"Her name's Marceline, and I'll tell her." With a nod he walked from the forest center, Fionna turning to go into the office.

"Is he gone?" Marceline asked now organizing the mail.

"Yup."

"That was beyond embarrassing Fi." The older teen still working on her busy work.

"I believe it…I'll go finish those letters okay?"

"Alright, I'll be working around if you need me, I'll bring the radio if I leave."

"Okay Marcy." Fionna said leaving her friend alone. The time just couldn't pass fast enough for Marceline, she wanted to go home sleep away the embarrassment and just wake up tomorrow like everything was totally normal like she always did…

The m rated chapter can be requested VIA/PM or through email(send emails to me thru the facebook page)

So that's chapter 47! Fionna and Marshall make it to tier 15, we discover who FP's first and last 1 night stand was, and obviously Marceline's embarrassed about it still. It's not something either of them were proud of. FP still doesn't know where he and Angel stand in relationship means. Mochro has met a Kate. And after their first meeting after the 1 night stand FP asks Marceline to hang out because she was cool.

Much randomness in this here chapter…The next chapter things happen and it's relevant to the story's plot line…so yeah…
