Hey it's G.T. here with an update for my Adventure Time story. I also closed my poll for this story about who Finn should be with since it's been open for over 5 months and Marceline and Flame Princess together were in the lead, so Finn will be with them both. If there are any objections let me know, as well as how you want me to try and change it. I'll also admit that before I started this chapter that I had serious writer's block on how to proceed after Simon and Betty's wedding, so I will apologize if it doesn't seem as good as other chapters.
Now the disclaimers…
I do NOT own Adventure Time with Finn and Jake or its characters.
I do not own the song "I just can't get over you" that Finn sang in the "Love Games" episode. I just thought it would seem appropriate for the story.
"Talking" – most characters.
"Thinking" – most characters.
"(Talking)" – Lady Rainicorn.
"(Thinking)" – Lady Rainicorn.
"Talking" – monsters and the Lych.
"Thinking" – monsters and the Lych.
Awkward Company, and Beginning of Plans
It's been one month since the wedding between Simon and Betty Petrikov, and the two are starting their honeymoon…
…Unfortunately their first step is an awkward one.
"Simon, Betty, why are you two here, and not on a romantic getaway?" Finn asked as he saw the newlyweds on his doorstep.
"Well Finn, Simon and I plan to travel to a lot of great places around Ooo, but we wanted to spend a week in the grasslands, so where better to stay then with the friend who got us together." Betty answered with a sheepish expression.
"Relax Finn, it's only a week, and Betty and I promise not to be a bother." Simon added in.
"Fine, besides after your week here I know of two places you could go next for your honeymoon." Finn conceded as he let them in. "I just hope you don't mind using our only guest room which was made for Marceline." He added.
With that they proceeded to the tree house kitchen where Jake and BMO were making a massive breakfast.
"Hey Jake you think you and BMO could add some more for a couple guests who will be staying with us for about a week?" Finn asked his brother.
"Uh sure Finn, but who are they and when are they coming?" Jake asked without looking.
"Well Simon and Betty are already here to start their honeymoon." Finn answered making Jake and BMO turn around.
"YAY HONEYMOON COMPANY!" BMO said happily.
"Good to know you didn't give me any warning before hand." Jake said sarcastically.
"They kind of sprung it on me at the door, and since it's their honeymoon I couldn't turn them away Jake." Finn replied annoyed.
"Fine, but if they aren't on their best behavior, it's the treasure shed for them." Jake said with a smirk.
"There isn't a bed there so you'd have to lay on tons of gold and jewels, so it wouldn't be very comfortable especially on a honeymoon." Finn told their guests who Jake had confused.
"Finn when I was the Ice King I recall you and Jake keeping treasure in the Treehouse." Simon chimed.
"Oh there have been a couple occasions where we had too much and it almost broke the treehouse, so we set up a treasure shed." Ice Prince replied with a shrug.
With that the five sat down to a big breakfast with the treehouse trio enjoying their guests. Once that was finished, Finn and Jake went to help Simon and Betty with their things to help them get situated in Marceline's room.
"So now that Simon and I are situated in Marceline's room first I want to ask if you think she'll mind?" Betty asked concerned.
"Nah Simon was like a father to her so now that he's free she'll do anything to keep their bond strong, not to mention that she owes Finn big time." Jake said with a chuckle.
"Jake you're one to talk about payback on Marcy when you're terrified of her, and only attack when she causes Finn a heartbreak." Simon spoke.
"Well actually Simon before Jake introduced me and FP when I was in a funk about PB rejecting me, I did consider asking Marceline out because I had a crush on her too." Finn spoke with a sheepish grin.
"Really Finn, a crush on Marceline?" Jake asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I couldn't help it she was just so awesome and seemed so perfect even if she was rough around the edges." Finn said to his adopted brother.
"Hehehe did you tell her that when you caught her and FP?" Simon asked.
"Of course I did. Oh Simon by the way I know of a good way you can bond with Hunson besides caring for Marceline." Finn said making the man's eyes widen.
"How?" He asked.
"Simple, you know that lousy wizard Ash?" Finn asked.
"I stole that jerks carpet after Simon." Betty chimed in.
"Then you can join in the bonding, because I personally gave Ash to Hunson to torture." Finn said.
"Good." Simon said with an evil smirk that made Betty worried.
"Simon is there something I should know?" Betty asked.
"That jerkwad dated Marceline, abused her, treated her like a slave, and sold Hambo to Maja the Sky Witch for a wand." Simon spoke with clenched teeth and fists.
"He also tricked me and Jake into going into her dream and getting rid of the memory of their breakup. Which ended with him getting beat up by her, me and stomped on by Jake." Finn added.
"Hehehe yeah and Hunson gives him punishment for his wrongs against Ooo and his daughter by torturing him once every few days." Jake added.
"Sounds like I should've kicked him in the boinloins when I was in Wizard City then." Betty spoke hating Ash.
"Yeah when PB told me about their trip to get back Hambo she found a receipt Maja wrote describing Ash as a wenis." Finn added with barely contained laughter.
With that they all shared a laugh considering how much of a jerk Ash was.
With that they spent the rest of the day telling stories about past adventures until well after dinner where Simon and Betty decided to help Finn and Jake with the dishes before chatting more before bed.
"So Finn, I remember my way around Ooo entirely from when I was Ice King, but what would be a good place to start our honeymoon?" Simon asked.
Well we could take a trip to visit Jermaine my and Jake's other brother, maybe visit the market place in the grasslands to get some items to help you both protect yourselves, but watch out for Choose Goose, items he sends you out with tend to be a bit awkward." Finn stated blushing while Jake chuckled.
"You can't let go of that time we went looking for invincible armor and found out it was a giant woman's armor huh?" Jake asked before feeling cold, and seeing his tail frozen. "GAH! FINN!" The magic dog whined.
"Well Jake maybe now you'll remember that the next time you tease me about something super embarrassing, I can always give you cold feet before you do marry Lady Rainicorn." Finn smirked at his adopted brother.
"Sounds fun, but Finn would it be possible to get a weapon like your sword?" Betty asked.
"1. My sword is cursed, but I accepted it. 2. We got it from the Wizard of Grassy Mountain." Finn began.
"I heard of him, everyone says he's a major jerk and dingwad." Simon chimed in.
"Yeah he is, when we went to get him to remove the curse he threw all his grassy objects at us, which helped me see the good in the curse." Finn explained.
"So he was a sore loser when he saw you accepted the eternal curse you sought to remove?" Betty asked smiling.
"Yep, and when I took on the crown, the sword changed to blue while maintaining its grassy appearance, however, it's actually stronger, and is fireproof." Finn mentioned offhandedly.
"*Yawn* Well I think we should shower, and go to bed." Jake said sleepily while Simon and Betty smiled.
"One at a time you two this is someone else's home." Finn said sternly.
With that they all showered, changed, and readied for bed except for Finn who was showering after Simon. What no one noticed was that someone was sneaking into the treehouse. Before she could head to Finn and Jake's room though she heard a voice in the bathroom and stopped. (Again, I don't own this song, I just believed it would be appropriate for the story. It belongs to the show.)
"When I'm heating up my lunch,
Or delivering a dungeon punch,
I can't, get over you.
Your kiss is burned into my brain,
Simon's hair is clogging up my drain,
I just can't, get over you.
I see your face all over Ooo,
It sticks to me like a coat of glue,
I can't, get over you."
The guest revealed by the moonlight was a blushing Marceline who was curious about who was able to sing so well that she turned invisible as the door started to open revealing a shirtless Finn in sleep pants.
"*Sigh* Why can't I get over her, or even Marceline?" Finn began. "They both broke my heart when they got together behind my back, so I should be able to move on." He added with frustration before sighing and heading to bed.
With that the unseen Vampire Queen turned visible blushing from Finn's body, his voice when he sang that song, and the fact that he still likes her and Flame Princess. After gathering her wits, she snuck out and to the Candy Kingdom to let FP and PB find out what she had learned.
And so this chapter is done. Again I don't own the song, also the part about Simon. Unlike in the show he didn't play a part in the breakup, I just like that part of the song, and it wouldn't make sense to change it to Marceline since Finn would actively keep her out of the treehouse. I also think a lot of people love that song, and I thought it was a good song to expose Marceline to in order to prove Cinnamon Bun right. Not to mention that it would help tie in the beginning of the whole FinnXFPXMarceline pairing. Anyway…
Never give up, and never stop being a true believer,
Gold Testament out.
