A couple weeks have passed since Simon returned to normal. During that time, he and his fiancée Betty scheduled their wedding day to be held in one month at the Ice Kingdom. The kingdoms of Ooo were overjoyed to hear such news. They were glad that Ice King's kidnappings have ceased indefinitely and were even happier that he proposed to Betty. The wedding preparations were underway and all Simon had to do was wait. He also spent time with his vampire friend Marceline who was also overjoyed to see him again. She would often tell him stories about her personal life as he worked in his personal lab.

Meanwhile, Finn introduced Flame Princess to Betty and the two quickly became best friends. Betty was intrigued meeting the fire elemental and learned more about the Fire Kingdom. Flame Princess on the other hand, learned more about the humans and Betty's past life during the Mushroom War. They continued to learn more about each other's cultures and traditions as they would talk on the phone for hours. They even spent some of their time together going to several marketplaces Ooo could offer. Normally, the two would usually go window shopping, much to Finn and Simon's dismay. In one instance, they had Finn and Simon accompany them to help carry some merchandise. Instead, they found themselves waiting for hours with grouchy expressions.

Finn was sitting down beside Simon, bowing with his hands together. A few moments later, he leaned up, threw his hands up and said, "THIS is ridiculous!"

Although his tone was in a mocking playful matter, FP scowled at him, crossing her arms, "Keep whining like that, and we'll never leave." Then, she dropped her scowl and smiled sweetly, "Besides, we still have another market to cover."

Finn leaned back and groaned, "Uuugh, why FP? Just why?!" From that moment, he wished to himself that there was a crime alert on his phone. Sadly, fate would not allow it.

FP giggled, "I'm just kidding my love. I think we've all been out long enough. Thank you SO much for being a 'wonderful' gentleman by the way."

"Nooo problem!" Finn smiled back and gave her a mock salute. She rolled her eyes as Betty walked up to her side.

"Alright, I'm done!" Betty smiled as she held out two large bags in each hand.

Simon was wide eyed as he saw her, "Goodness gracious! What in the world did you get?"

"Oh, nothing really. Just some shoes and dresses," she replied casually.

"Don't you already have those? You practically have the castle flooded with them! And on top of that, you haven't even worn them since!" Simon pulled his hair with both hands.

Betty shook her head smiling, "Nope! It's my money and if I see something good, then I just HAVE to have it! You could always stay back at the castle if you want. I know you like to be in the lab all day."

He walked up to her and gently stroked her cheek with one hand, "Not this time, Betty. Our time together is special no matter what. I'm with you every step of the way."

She blushed, "Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm sorry for taking so long. I'll take it easy with the shopping next time." They both kissed briefly until Finn cleared his throat.

"Sorry to interrupt but it's getting late," Finn said while holding FP with one arm.

"Yeah, you're right. We have to get ready with the wedding soon. It's only a matter of time until we start sending invites to everyone. Good night!" Then she looked at Simon, "Let's go."

He nodded in response and then he and Betty rode on their magic carpet. They waved their goodbyes one last time as they flew towards the Ice Kingdom.

"Ready, Flame?" Finn asked as he held her close.

She nodded, "Let's go home, Finn."

They left the marketplace and walked towards the open plains. Finn pulled out his spell book and summoned a portal to the outskirts of the Fire Kingdom. Once they passed, they made their way towards the palace.

Finn smirked, "What do you think? I found this teleportation spell book from a random dungeon in one of my travels. It only works if we travel city to city though, but we can still cover ground fast."

"That's cool, but don't you think you might miss something if you do that? What if there's something interesting on the way?"

He made a dismissive gesture, "Pssh, please. I've traveled the land a thousand times before and a thousand times again. There's nothing else in this world that I could possibly want."

FP looked at him, "How so?"

He smiled warmly and whispered, "Because I already have you."

She blushed, "When did you learn to be so great at romance?"

Finn shrugged, "Well, I try. I guess you could learn a couple things in four years. Seeing couples come and go has given me an idea to say the right things." He rubbed the back of his neck and continued, "That, and the fact I've watched romantic comedies."

FP giggled.

They made it back to the palace and proceeded to their chambers. As usual, Cinnamon Bun and the guards saluted them as they walked by. Once Finn and FP went inside, they washed up, changed into light clothing, and headed for bed.

Flame Princess yawned and stretched a little before laying down.

"Are you ok, Flame?" Finn asked sincerely.

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just all that shopping made me sore. I'll manage."

Finn thought for a moment until he decided, "Here, lie on your front. I'll give you a massage."

She was shocked, "Really? Finn, it's ok. You don't have to do that!"

He shook his head, "Nope, my mind is made up. Don't worry, I won't over step my boundaries. I promise."

"(sigh) Alright, go ahead." FP did as she was told.

Finn sat on the bed next to her and readied himself, "I'm going to start with your shoulders and then I'll make my way down to your lower back. Is that ok?"

"Mm-hm."

Moments later, Flame Princess was in a state of bliss. She relaxed tremendously as Finn tenderly squeezed her shoulders with his strong hands. He gradually made his way to her lower back, being sure to loosen her tense muscles. While he was enjoying feeling FP in his hands, he constantly reminded himself to respect their relationship.

His thoughts were suddenly interrupted when FP moaned in relaxation. "Is that better, Flame," he asked softly.

"...(sigh) Yeah, just.. a little more to the left (sigh)."

Finn moved his hands and concentrated on that area for a while. After a few minutes, he moved back up to her shoulders one last time before finishing.

"That should do it," Finn thought to himself. He admired his handiwork when he noticed FP was snoring lightly. "Glob, she's beautiful." He kissed the top of her head and whispered, "Good night, love." Then, he carefully laid on his side with his back facing her.

Unbeknownst to Finn, Flame Princess showed a faint smile.
