Chapter 11: Double Date: Part 6: A Quick Dip in the Lake

The lights cut back on in the studio to reveal LSP back in the audience. He sat with one arm around Turtle Prince and the other around Tree Trunks. "Welcome back. I am just sitting in the audience with my old pals. Turtle Prince think fast, who will Fi pick?"

"Marshall!" He yelled throwing up his arms.

"Tree trunks think fast who will Fi pick?"

"Well using my manly instincts I would have to say…ummm…I think the best person for Fi."

"Today Tree Trunks…" LSP said rubbing his temples.

"I guess I would say FP."

"Looks like another tie, next week's elimination is going to be a nail biter. Well let's see how this date will end."

The lights in the studio shut off and the monitor cuts on.

The three are getting out the limo and heading towards Marshall's house.

"Hey Marshall, that lake over there is it clean?"

"Yeah, it's pure spring water."

FP looked over to Fionna, "Hey wanna take a quick dip?"

"Yeah…oh well… Marshall before I get in do you need help cooking?"

"No I am good, go have fun and I will call you when it's all done."

Marshall went into the house as FP and Fionna ran like little kids to the water stripping off their clothes as they went. When Fionna finally reached the spring she stuck her foot in.

"I'm not getting in there it's freezing," she said quickly pulling her foot out as goose bumps ran up her leg.

"Don't worry, I'll warm it up." FP stepped into the water and moved as close to center and stopped when the water reached his chest. He lit his hands on fire and placed them in the water right in front of him. He whistled bobbing his head back and forth as the water quickly warmed up. When steam started to rise he said, "Come on in Fi, it's much better now."

Fionna stuck her foot in once more and her nerves instantly relaxed as she moved her whole body in. She sat down and let the weight of the world melt away. "Thanks FP, this feels great. It sure is useful having you and Marshall around." She chuckled.

FP moved over to her and sat down placing his arm around her shoulder. "It's nice out here… Marshall has a nice little place in this cave."

"Yeah I thought it would be cool to end our night here. We could eat a few bacon pancakes, maybe watch a movie and finally pass out. I know that tomorrow is going to be hell for me, I just want to enjoy this moment." She said turning her sight to the roof of the cave.

"I know how you feel. I am enjoying just living in the moment. I am happy exactly how things are right now. I kinda wished this night wouldn't end. It's funny I have always seen myself as a loner but not only have I found a woman I would love to spending the rest of my life with but a guy who I could see being my best bud. Amazing how so much could change in just one night…"

"I know. I came in to this date knowing who I was going to pick but now I just don't know. Both of you guys are so amazing. Some women wait a lifetime to find their perfect mate and I find two in less than a month." She said letting out a weak sigh.

FP pulled her closer to him as the two sat silent, carefully reflecting on all that had gone on that night.

"Hey Fi," FP said finally breaking the silence.

"Yeah," she answered looking in his direction.

"Let's go in the middle of the lake and see who can hold their breath the longest."

Fionna let out a playful chuckle, "Sure let's go."

The two made their way to the center. By the time they got in the middle the water was up to their chins and they kicked their feet gently to keep afloat.

"Okay Fi, on three. One…two…three..."

The two took one last breath before diving under. Little bubbles floated to the top as time slowly slipped by. Two minutes later FP came to the surface huffing and puffing.

"Wow Fi, you're good." He looked over to where Fionna was and shock his head. "Okay Fi, now your just showing off. Come back up."

Marshall walked over to the window and yelled out, "Pancakes are ready."

FP moved closer to where Fionna once was and gave a nervous giggle, "Come on Fi, stop playing…" Aside from FP kicking his feet, the water was silent. FP's heart pounded as he whispered, "Fi…"

He dove down deep into the water as he swam closer to the bottom he saw Fionna's body drifting back and forth with the currant. He looked closer to see that her shirt was caught on a log at the bottom of the lake. He yelled, "Fi, are you okay. Speak to me."

Her eyes were closed and she gave no response. He swam closer, unhooked her shirt and brought her to the surface. When he finally reached the top he yelled, "Marshall help, Fionna's in trouble."

Marshall darted out the house and saw the two in the center of the pond. He flew over removing them both from the water, placing them on the bank.

"Marshall looked over to FP, "What happened?"

FP pulled at his hair, "Uhh we went in the pond….. umm played to see who could hold their breath the longest…stupid, stupid, why did I ask her to do that… I came up but she didn't…" his voice started cracking, "I went back down and her shirt was caught on something, I unhooked it and brought her up to the surface….Oh Glob Marshall she is not breathing…" FP threw his face in his hands and cried hysterically.

Marshall moved over to Fionna and listened to her chest, he heard nothing. "No no no no no" He echoed over and over, he placed his hands over her heart and started pumping frantically.

"Someone call an ambulance…she is going to die." Marshall shouted.

FP mindlessly paced back and forth mumbling an inaudible phrase over and over again. He tugged and pulled at his hair frazzled and unable to get his mind back on track.

"Put down that damn camera and call an ambulance." Marshall screamed.

Different clips of the scenery flashed back and forth as the camera man moved about anxiously searching his pockets for his phone. He finally laid the camera on the ground next to Fi and called for an ambulance.

The camera showed a pale, unresponsive Fionna lying in the dirt. Long strands of her golden hair were sprawled all across her almost lifeless body. Marshall hovered over top of her unable to hold back his tears any longer; they drizzled down upon her face like rain descending from the heavens. With every burning tear Marshall went closer to the side of insanity. Everything around him seemed to be in slow motion, he looked over to FP who still mumbling to himself nearly ripping the hair from his head. The camera man yelled hysterically to the 911 operator trying to give his accounts of the story. Then he looked down upon his sweet little bunny who was still not moving. The devastating image of Marshall pumping again and again on to her cold, motionless, chest burned into the camera.

"Please Fi, wake up. Please…you gotta wake up." Marshall sobbed.

The monitor cut off and the lights turn back on in the studio.

LSP is seen staring at the monitor wide eyed with his hand covering his mouth. Silence laid across the studio like a haze. LSP's eyes never left the monitor as he lifted his hands up to his head and raked his fingers through his well-maintained brunette locks. Still unmoved his eyes grew glossy, "Cut to a commercial." He muttered.

"I SAID CUT TO THE GOT DAMNED COMMERCIALS."
