Deep in an old shack in the middle of the forest. The outrage of a man that was fooled can be heard echoing through the forest.

"No NO!" Magic Man yelled in disapproval, he could see his victim enjoying himself at his crystal ball.

"Damn it! This is not what I wanted!" He continued to yell, he bolted up and went down to his cauldron.

"I'll give that man a choice!" he said. He brewed up something, mixing different kinds of grotesque ingredients.

After a few stirs, the liquid inside the cauldron bubbled, Magic Man grabbed a small potion and poured some of the blue liquid from a soup spoon.

Without a word, he grabbed a book from his bag and recited a spell. "Mandarya suslu handiaika" He recited as macabre whispers, he then disappeared out of thin air.

Ice King was dreaming, it was very peaceful in his dreamworld. He dreamt that he was wearing a white suit and he standing on an altar at a hellish looking church, he was at the Nightosphere. There was a crowd in front of him sitting on church benches, there were penguins at the left column and multiple demons on the right. He could see a dark blue skinned man crying with tissue in his hands and Gunter crying on another penguin, he could also see his crown shedding tears just right beside Gunter. He looked to his right and he could see Marceline wearing a grey wedding gown and a candy person priest leading the ceremony.

"Do you, Marceline Abadeer, would love your husband till the very depths of the Nightosphere and would die with him towards the 50th Death world?" The priest recited.

"I do..." She said with a joyful smile on her face.

"And you, Simon Petrikov, would be bound towards her from the depths of the Nightosphere and until the 50th dead world?"

Ice King looked at her with a smile but was cut off.

"Psst..." He could hear, he looked at where the priest was. The priest was different now, it was the cloaked man with the beard. The whole dream froze, everyone was not moving, not even the tears that were being shed.

"I'm giving you a choice, my friend..." The man said, Ice King looked in confusion.

"Your misery feeds me but I can see that the potion has fooled me..." He continued, there was a smile on his face. He let out his right hand to reveal him holding a potion with blue liquid inside.

"You have a choice man, you could drink this potion and be the man you were before and leave her..." He offered, he sounded discreet and silent.

Ice King's eyes widened, he would never leave Marceline, she was loving him and he loved her.

"No! You couldn't take her away from me!" He shouted, the man frowned deeply, the dream started to crumble like it was just a painting an artist would throw away. Ice King and the cloaked man were left, standing in empty space.

"You have a choice... He whispered, his voice echoed through the empty space. He opened Ice King's palm and gave him the potion.

"I'm not coming back..." He said, he walked through the edge of empty space and disappeared out of no where, like he was swallowed by the darkness.

The dream came back like it was being painted again, Marceline was staring at him, waiting for an answer.

He was flustered at first until he snapped back, looking at her straight in the eyes with a smile.

"I do" He declared.

"You may now kiss the bride!" He said. Both Marceline and Ice King leaned in to kiss, it was the most gentle kiss he would believe that they would ever do. The crowd rejoiced, her father, Hunson Abadeer was crying, he was proud of her daughter.

"I now declare you husband and wife!" The priest declared with a joyous tone.

Cheers of the demons and quacks of the penguins was accompanied by clapping. The dream flashed with a bright light.

He was in the Candy Castle, he was just outside Princess Bubblegum's chambers. The door was half-open and Marceline was peeping right through it, she faced the direction of Ice King and he could see her face streaming with tears.

She then floated out of the nearest window, ever so slowly with her body limping. Ice King wondered what she saw, he looked inside and was shocked to see himself with Princess Bubblegum at her bed, making love with her.

"No... How could I betray her?..." He whispered.

"You have a choice..." A voice erupted as a whisper to his ear.

"NO!" He screamed

He awakened and bolted up from his bed screaming. "NO!" He shouted as if he was continuing it, Marceline was awakened by his scream.

"Hey.. hey, what's gotten into you?" She asked calmly.

"I-I had this dream and.. I was marrying you and then I saw you crying after you saw me doing Princess Bubblegum" He said so quickly. Marceline blushed but was slightly angered by the "Princess Bubblegum" part. Ice King left out the ominous cloaked man, she didn't need to hear it.

"Look, Simon... Would you betray me?" She asked softly, Ice King slowly laid his back, he tried to calm himself.

"No!...Marceline, you aren't pregnant are you?" He asked worriedly. Marceline's face hued to red.

"Don't worry about that, I learned a spell from the succubus to stop the seed" She said, Ice King was relieved by the answer.

"I'm just worried..." He remarked as he laid back down.

"That I'll lose you if we marry" He continued, Marceline blushed.

"Simon, if we're going to get on marriage, it would take a hundred years, because that's how my dad approves it" She said. "Bastard cheated when Vampire King came..." She mumbled angrily. Ice King caught her mumble but decided to ignore it, it didn't seem good to talk about.

"Let's get back to sleep, you're still my boyfriend... even if you said something about Bonnibel... just don't think about the future, it worries me as well" She advised.

"Yeah... you're right... I need some sleep" He laid back down and tried to get some sleep, he wanted to prolong being awake to get the thoughts off his mind.

"Marcy?" He called out softly.

"Mmm Hmm?" She replied.

"Why did you pick Simon for a boyfriend name?" He asked curiously. "I mean, why not Icy or Icekingly or something like that?" He continued.

Marceline cuddled her head on his chest, "You can't remember but that was your real name when you still had that young body of yours, I feel more comfortable with it" She answered. Ice King searched his mind for that name, he had the faint memory of it, he just couldn't remember why it was there.

"I see, so thats why the name was there at the back of my head..." He remarked sounding amazed.

"Marcy?" He called out again

"Yeah?" She said, she wasn't angered at him, she wanted to have a small conversation with him for awhile before sleeping.

"What do you think of Princess Bubblegum? I mean, she's all pink, happy and elegant and you're grey, tricky and rowdy, I bet there's something about you two" The question was completely out of the blue for Marceline.

"We have a sort of fucked up history together, she doesn't like me and I don't like her. She's lucky that I didn't suck the pink out of her, since pink is kinda a shade of red. We used to be friends and all until it was getting a bit frustrating and tensive in there, she acts like she's so perfect and that's what I observed. I'm just her problem that's all, we just ignore each other when we cross paths from time to time" She answered, Ice King nodded his head in attention.

"But her making out with you? That's something I would never forgive her for. She could stick out with Finn but he's too young, so I guess we should avoid her, she might make her move and I'm afraid that you'll sink to her" She continued worriedly, Ice King was disheartened by the last sentence. He turned to her and embraced her.

"I wouldn't betray you, besides, I don't like her anymore" He said softly, Marceline was comforted by him. He kissed her forehead and started to drift to sleep.

Marceline was still awake, she never would have thought that Ice King would be so good as a partner, she had hopes that her relationship with him would last long.

Her eyes started to feel heavy and her body started to feel the comfort of sleep, she closed her eyes and slept.

The next morning...

Ice King woke up, Marceline wasn't with him anymore, she must've woke up earlier than him. He wiped his eyes and got up, he noticed that there was a note on the nightstand. He picked it up and read it, it was from Marceline

Simon, you took so long to wake up and I didn't want to wake you, you look so handsome when you sleep.

Anyway, there was an invitation on the door, it was for Bonnibel's Annual Candy Ball. Polish yourself and get ready for it cause as you read this, I might be trying to convince her to get you invited.

Now's your time to prove what you said...

Love,

Marceline

Ice King raised an eyebrow, "Prove what?" He asked himself in his thoughts. Then it hit him...

"I would never betray you, besides, I don't like her anymore" The words flashed back. The feeling of anxiety was engulfing him but he had no doubts, he could do this, he wont turn her back on Marceline.

AN: If I have enough heart, I would add another lemon.
