What happened last:

Finn, Jake and Marceline just defeated a horde of undead and haven't figured out why they even came in the first place...

Once the battle had ended and the three were able to relax knowing the undead were re-dead Jake stopped for a second and remembered something he had to do with Lady Rainicorn.

J: "Oh glob, I almost forgot! It's Lady and I's anniversary! I gotta go give her this thing that we got from that graveya… I mean... What are we talking about again? He… he…" Jake realized that he never told Finn the real reason why they raised the dead and hurried away before Finn could interrogate him about it.

F: What?! Jake what are you talking about?" Finn said in utter confusion as Jake was getting ready to leave.

F: "And you said it wrong again man!" Finn yelled as Jake was already too far away to hear.

F: "Whatever man. You're one crazy dog." He said to himself while slightly chuckling and turned to see Marceline.

F: "Hey Marceli…" Finn was cut off by the sight of Marceline lying on the ground, not floating like usual, asleep.

He slowly walked up to her, careful not to wake the sleeping vampire queen and picked her up. Finn usually never got close to Marceline although they had been good friends for a long time. He carried her surprisingly light body to her bedroom. It took him about 10 minutes in all because her bedroom is on the 2nd floor of her house and there's only a ladder. He laid her down, brushed her long silky black hair from her face and gently covered her in a blanket not knowing that it wouldn't matter. As she lay there, more peaceful and happy than Finn had ever seen he took a second to admire his longtime friend. Her hair was messy, her face was slightly dirty from the fighting earlier and she looked like a complete mess.

F: "Wow, she's…" Finn said under his breath and walked out.

The next evening Finn got ready to go back to Marceline's house to see how she was and to make sure she was ok. He left and put a note on the front door to let Jake know where he was because Jake hadn't returned from Lady's house since yesterday afternoon.

By the time Finn got to Marceline's house it was already dark outside so he expected her to be awake.

F: "Hey Marceline, are you home? It's Finn!" Finn said in his usual hyper enthusiastic voice as he knocked on the door.

F: "Marcy! Mar Mar! Marceline, are you…" Finn yelled and was interrupted by the sound of loud thumping sounds and crying coming from Marceline's room.

Instantly suspecting something bad or possibly evil attacking her he silently and quickly entered her house and went up the ladder to her room. He did this even though he was still slightly scared of her because he knew that she can be unpredictable at times

He came up to her lying on the floor, tightly gripping a pillow and crying. He quickly walked towards her and called out to her but she didn't answer. He kept trying, getting closer and closer. When he got within arm's reach of her he went to nudge her and she lashed out at him.

M: "Haven't you hurt me enough—"Marceline screamed at Finn but not actually meaning it to be towards him.

F: "Marceline, are you ok?" It sounded like you were in trouble so I-"

M: "What are you doing here Finn?!" she screamed at him with her face turning slightly demonic and her slit tongue sticking out.

F: "I helped you to your room last night cause you kinda passed out after the fight last night and well, I wanted to make sure you were ok." Finn said as he cowered away from the undead queen hoping that she would not attack him for yet again invading her lair.

F: "So, are you ok?"

M: "Y-yea, just kinda tired. I haven't really been sleeping much lately." She said with a raspy voice.

F: "Well, why is that Marceline? You can tell me, I'll keep it on the DL." Finn said while making a silly sly face to emphasize what he was saying.

F: "Oh! I brought you these. I figured that the ones higher up in the tree would taste better because they're harder to get. I thought you might be hungry." Finn said with a slight blush as he pulled out a couple red apples and handed them to Marceline.

M: "Thanks Finn." Marceline said with a smile and with her voice seemingly back to normal already.

Marceline got up and floated to her living room and immediately began eating the apples Finn brought without saying anything. Finn followed her shortly after ignoring the fact that she randomly just got up. When Finn got downstairs he saw that Marceline had already sucked the color out of most of the apples. He noticed that she seemed more like she usually did and she didn't look as tired as she did the night before but still had dark rings around her eyes. She looked… kind of cute.

F: "So Marcy, are you still gonna tell me what's up?" Finn said trying to get Marceline to not avoid the subject.

M: "What? I'm just fine Finn. Never been happier." Marceline said with a very fake smile and clearly lying.

Finn's face quickly changed to show Marceline that he didn't believe a word she just said.

F: "Ok Marceline, I'm gonna be 15 in like, a week and a half. I know that you're lying. Time to spill the beans." Finn said prying at Marceline to get her to open up to him, something that she never really did for anyone after Ash.

M: "Finn, I wish I could tell you but you wouldn't understand." She said with her voice starting to crack as if she were about to cry.

F: "That's not what matters Marcy. I'm here so you have someone to talk to. Cause a radical dame like you should never be lonely!" Finn said with much enthusiasm hoping to lift the vampire's spirits.

With that Marceline started to tear up. She stopped floating, sat down and pulled her knees in close and lowered her head and began to cry. Finn didn't really know what to do because he didn't have much experience with this and didn't know if Marceline would get angry if he got close but he decided to comfort her anyway. With the mixed feelings of fear and empathy Finn got close to Marceline and gently wrapped his arms around her to make her feel better. When she first felt him touch her she froze for a second not expecting it but kept crying anyway.

F: "It's ok Marcy. Just let it all out"

Then Marceline finally let her feelings go. She wrapped her arms around Finn's body, squeezed tightly and cried. She cried for what seemed like hours.

4 Hours later

After hours of crying on Finn's shoulder and explaining all of the things on her mind ranging from not really ever knowing her mother to Ash breaking her heart she fell asleep in his arms. Finn thought to himself that she must have still been exhausted because it was about 9PM and she was usually awake now. He just shrugged it off and did what he had the day prior. He carried her to her room, and tucked her in.

As Finn was about to leave he decided to call Jake to see if he was back yet. No answer. He then called the phone at the house, then "Special Occasion" phone, then Lady's phone. No answer. He was really worried for a second then remembered that it was their anniversary so he guessed that they were on a vacation or something. Finn then wrote a note to Marceline telling her that she could come over tomorrow when she wakes up. Right before leaving, Finn left some more red things that he had in his backpack for her to eat when she woke up. Among the various items, one of them was a red rose. Finn thought nothing about it at the time. Just that it was red and she could eat it. Then he took off for home.
