Chapter 6! I'm sorry for the chapter delay! Just today I decided to get off my lazy butt and write this. Even though I'm still being lazy, but productive. Enjoy the chapter!
I was going to play a song, but my phone rang. "Hello?"
I heard Jake on the other end, "Oh hey Marceline! I want to ask you something".
"Okay. What?"
"Marceline, I wanted to ask you if you wanna come over for dinner tonight. Finn will be there". Is he bribing me with Finn?
I was a little mad, "do you have food I will eat? Is this a party? 'Cuz I don't have much time".
"For the first question, yes. For the second, no, but my family will be there. Just," Jake sighed. "Finn talked about seeing you today, and, I think you make him happy," Jake said seriously.
My mood lightened. "Really?"
"Yeah, girl. Now go get in your best outfit, and get your best girly dreams from your little vampire brain ready. Umm, I guess I'll see you there". I couldn't believe what Jake just said.
"Yes! I'll be there!" Once I realized how(and what) I said, I fixed my words quickly(and with less enthusiasm) "Oh, uh, right. I'll be there".
"Great! So I'll see you soon! Bye!"
After Jake hung up, I swiftly floated to my room to get ready. I ran to my closet, to pick out something to wear. Right when I opened the door, I found a dress I had been saving for a special occasion. The dress wasn't long, but not too short. It was black with a red ribbon at the waist. I was a little worried about wearing "too much", but I felt like I needed to look good sometimes.
Right when I was about to leave, I heard a knock on my door. I floated to my door, and I opened it. No one was there, but an envelope was on my door mat. I picked it up and went inside. I opened it, and I was surprised what it said. It read in pink "pretty" pink print,
You're invited!
You're invited to some random party at the candy kingdom! The party starts at 8:00 PM on Saturday at the candy castle. FINN WILL BE THERE!
Love,
Princess Bubblegum
Oh my Glob. This princess is a sad woman. I didn't exactly know if I wanted to go to the party or not. I decided "no" at the moment, but I might go just to prank Bonnibel or something. I left my mail on my counter, and headed out the door.
When I knocked on Finn's door in the grasslands, I was greeted by Jake and Lady Rainicorn. Jake said hello, "Oh hey Marceline! We've been waiting for you! Well except for Finn and the pups, we didn't tell them you where coming".
Finn came into the room. "Hey Jake! Who's at... The... Door..." Finn obviously didn't expect to see me here. "Wow, Marceline! You look great!"
"Thanks, Finn! So, what's for dinner?"
"Oh, we have a whole feast ready. We have sausage, red velvet cake, gourmet puppy food, steak, and we have other stuff," Jake explained.
Before he could say anymore, in came the puppies. "Daddy! Who is that lady?" TV asked. The puppies where so cute scrambling around my feet. One puppy used it's rainicorn powers to fly on my head.
"Pups, this is Marceline. She will be eating dinner with us," Jake replied. The puppies smiled then ran upstairs. Soon, we all followed them. When I reached the dining room, I was impressed by the array of food on the table. There was even a bowl full of red apples for me. At the table, I sat next to Finn, and Finn sat next to Jake. On the other side of the table, Lady Rainicon sat down and stretched out her body so her puppies could sit on her. Beemo just sat in the middle of the table.
Then we heard a knock on the door. "I'll go get it!," Viola exclaimed. We herd the pit-pat of her tiny feet for awhile, in till she stopped. We could hear the door open then close. Then Viola returned and said, "It's a letter for uncle Finn!"
She handed it to him. "Thanks, Viola! I wonder what it could be..." Finn opened the envelope to find yet another invite. "Huh. It's an invitation from PB! It's to a party on Saturday," Finn said.
"I got an invitation similar to that one before I left my house," I commented. I thought Bonnie would have told him face to face. Since my invite said, 'Finn will be there'.
"Weird. Was yours for the same party?," Finn asked.
"That's what I meant by 'similar''.
"So, I guess I'll see you there, Marceline".
"I guess I could go," I said, "Y'know, that invite is for you AND Jake. So I'll be seeing both of you there". There was no reply. "Let's just eat, okay?". There wasn't much more talk for the rest of dinner. In till desert.
"Daddy, can we have dessert yet?," Charlie asked.
"Oh yeah...". Jake got up and stretched over to the oven. He pulled out two cakes, one vanilla, one red velvet. Once Jake placed them on the table, the puppies mauled the vanilla cake. I took a slice of red velvet cake, and drained the red from it.
Finn ate his slice of cake quickly too, and asked for mine. I forced a smile. "Yes, you can have mine".
*** To Bubblegum ***
"Okay. So I sent out all the invitations. Now what do I have to do, Peppermint Butler?," I asked.
"You still have to set the party up, Princess. Don't forget, the party's on Saturday, you still have time," He replied.
"You're right, Peppermint Butler. You're right".
