Distance is only a number, feelings can't be measured, and time doesn't exist when you have someone you can't get off your mind.

Marshall's POV.
I closed the door after her and turned around sinking to the ground. I sighed.
'What the hell just happened?' The tightness in my chest became too much, her tears in my eyes too vivid, the memory of what just happened too strong.
'Fuck my vegetarian diet. I need to go out for the kill.'
I stood up shakily and grabbed my coat and keys.
Marceline's POV.
I walked out of his house a pissed off vampire. I walked outside a girl who felt like they had lost everything. I took off in the direction of my old treehouse, Finn was probably going crazy wondering what happened, and I was in the mood for spilling my guts. As the sun blazed dangerously I sped up tears spilling down my face.
I knocked on the door loudly, doing my best to wipe off my dried tears. A few seconds later Finn answered, dressed in his normal adventuring clothes with a sword at the ready. He put it down when he saw me though.
"Marceline? You look terrible. What happened?" He opened the door wider for me to come in; I walked with heavy feet over to his couch and laid down.
"Where's Jake?" I asked casually, trying to stall without him noticing. Finn sat down on the edge of couch I left available looking at me with genuine concern.
"He's with Lady. Now tell me what happened. You kind of ditched us and disappeared for 2 days." I sighed heavily.
"Well… It's a really long story." I mumbled flipping over on my side.
"I've got time."
"Wow. So… you just broke up with him?" Finn asked when I finished telling him everything that happened and everything I remembered about Marshall.
"Well, yeah! What was I supposed to do? He just randomly sleeps with his ex after one fight!" I cryed my eyes threatening tears.
"Well… I'm not really good at all this relationship stuff. The only girlfriend I've ever had is Flame Princess. But I know enough to know that this whole thing is stupid and you both should apologize."
"But, Finn… You don't get it. He's obsessed with anything that happens between me and Todd. If I even mention Todd he'll probably do all this again."
"….Marceline that's not fair." Finn said looking into my eyes his eyebrows narrowed in concentration.
"What are you talking about, Finn?"
"That's not fair. How would you feel if you had to watch the person you loved have a serious relationship with someone else. And then have that same person take the purity from you? And have to witness that too?"
"Well… I guess I'd be pissed… But it's not like Marshall loved me back then. I… loved him. And he just went out with whatever skank he saw. So I tried to move on and he just didn't like somebody taking my attention away from him." Finn looked at me with an exasperated expression. And facepalmed himself, shaking his head.
"Marceline! You are so blind! He was so completely in love with you. He probably thought you only saw him as a friend and tried to get over it! How do you not see that?!" I sat up straight and regarded Finn carefully.
"You think he's always loved me?" Finn grinned cheerfully.
"I know it."
Marshall Lee's POV.
I had just gotten to the front door when a firm hand gripped my shoulder.
"What the fuck do you want Quince?" I spat, turning around.
"Where are you going Marshall?" My uncle asked patiently ignoring my irritation.
"What? I can't leave the fucking house without telling you where I'm going?"
"Marshall… I heard the yelling." I huffed in annoyance and avoided looking at his face, I knew he would have that stupid 'I'm worried about you' look. When I didn't respond he took it as a sign to continue.
"Is she your girlfriend?" Somewhere deep within me something cracked, my persona faded, and my emotions were suddenly on display. I couldn't stop the hot tear that ran down my cheek.
"Was. A little while ago." I finally made eye contact with him, his hazel eyes burned through mine and I could tell he was making up his mind about something. He flipped his brown hair and motioned towards the couch.
"You wanna tell me all about it?" I hesitantly nodded and floated over to the couch.
One long story later….
"And I-I told her to get out." I finished.
"Damn… Dude… You… are an idiot." Quince looked at me and looked back down shaking his head.
"I know!" I covered my face in my hands and sighed.
"You are the most jealous bastard ever."
"Whoa… whoa. I am not jealous of that mother fucker."
"YES YOU ARE! Every time she mentions Todd you act like a crazy jealous bastard!"
"I get mad when she mentions him because she still has feelings for him!"
"No she doesn't! She did all of that for you!"
"Oh yeah thanks go make out with your ex for me. I can't even be arrested for killing him. I'm the vampire king for fucks sake. And he's a vampire. He's pretty much my citizen!"
"You are so jealous Marshall Lee. It's ridiculous." I jumped out of my seat angrily and looked at him with daggers.
"Now you listen here. And listen good. I am not jealous of Todd. I am much better looking than him with his stupid red hair and forest green eyes. I am a much better singer and drummer. And if I had the fucking chance before he fucking took her from me, I would have made love to her much better than he did."
"Ahhh, there it is. There's the source of the jealousy. He beat you to her then, huh?" I stopped. And thought. 'Am I jealous? It's starting to seem like it… Oh glob. What the hell did I do? Oh my GLOB. I SLEPT WITH ASHLEY TO GET BACK AT HER.'
"I'm jealous… Extremely jealous… Shit. What did I do?"
"You need to fix it, boy. But you have to back to the friend-zone before you just wanna go back to the way things were. Show her you're sorry.
"Alright… Thanks Quince." I said smiling just a little bit.
"Anytime, little dude. Now go get your girl!"
Marceline's POV.
"Alright, thanks for talking to me Finn." I said getting up.
"Anytime Marci! Good luck!"
"Bye!" I opened the door and ran straight into a hard chest. Looking up I met eyes with Marshall who was floating slightly above the ground and was about to knock on the door.
"Hi…" He started rather nervously.
"Hey…"
