Hello my wonderful fans!... is that what I should call you? I mean, I'm not a professional writer... yet. Well, I'll stick with fans for now :3

This chapter is based on the episode Go With Me. All rights go to the original writers: Ako Castuera and Tom Herpich. It's one of my favorite episodes ever so I'm happy to write it in this story.

I'm still taking line and song requests. I really want songs! So write some songs for this story!

Again, I'll be gone for two and a half weeks, returning August 5th, so I'll be unable to update during this time. I'll be in the beautiful country of China for my summer vacation.

Disclaimer: I do not own the transcript for Go With Me. Nor do I own Adventure Time.


Cake and Fionna continued to walk around the forest together, talking about the night ahead. Fionna was still wondering who she could call to go with. The only person she could think about was someone who wouldn't make a move on her. She just wanted to go just to watch the movie. Was that too much to ask? Not in Fionna's book.

With a sigh, Fionna reached into her pocket and pulled out her phone. The girls had stopped by the brooke that ran through the forest for a short break. Cake sat on a rock as she observed Fionna skimming through her phone.

"Who you gonna call?" Cake asked her.

"I'm going to call a boy I don't have to kiss," Fionna replied, dialing Gumball's number. She held it up her ear and waited for him to pick up, goosebumps running over her arms.

"Hello?" Gumball's voice said through the phone.

"Hi, Benson!" Fionna said in an unusually perky voice. "Would you like to go to Couples Movie Night with me?"

"Sounds romantic, Fionna," Gumball said.

That wasn't what she meant at all! Her face heat up and she shook her head rapidly.

"No! I was just wondering if you wanted to go with me," she squeaked. She waited on pins and needles for his response.

"No, sorry, Fionna," Gumball said. He actually sounded genuinely sorry. "I wasn't planning on going. Besides, I'm busy practicing for the Whistling Choir Club's first competition this year."

"But-."

"Auf Wiedersehen!" Gumball chimed and he hung up the phone, distant whistling heard before the click.

She sighed in defeat and hung up her phone. She glanced at Cake with a pout.

"He doesn't want to go," she mumbled.

"Yes he does!" Cake declared, standing from her rock. "We just need to help him realize that he wants to go to the movies with you." She sent Fionna a wink and took out her phone. "I'm calling Marshall Lee."

"What?" Fionna raised her eyebrows. What good would Marshall be able to do for them? Cake had to have some idea since she was confidently dialing his number as she spoke to Fionna.

"Look, baby, I know Marshall may be a big perv and everything. But deep down, he's a real sweetheart," Cake said. Fionna pursed her lips as Cake put the phone to her ear. Somehow, Fionna had a feeling Marshall was gonna screw around with Cake's plan.

"Speak," Marshall's voice hissed on the other side of the line.

"Hey, hey, Marshall Lee. Gotta favor to ask, Babe," Cake said. "We've gotta make Bubba jealous, so he'll go to the movie with Fionna."

Marshall Lee hung up the phone as he approached the two girls. Cake thought she had lost the signal and swore.

"Marshall? Come in. Hello?" Cake said into the phone.

Fionna saw Marshall sneak behind Cake. Before she could say anything to warn her sister, Marshall hissed loudly behind the brunette, making her scream and run behind Fionna. The other two started to laugh. He waved pleasantly at them.

" 'Sup?" he said.

"Hey," Fionna grinned.

Cake made a noise that sounded like an angry cat. Fionna giggled and patted her friend's arm. Marshall leaned on a tree.

"So, you need some love help, eh?" he said. "I'm just the guy to do it."

"You're gonna help us?" Fionna said excitedly.

"Yeah," he confirmed. "I'll help. It'll be funny."


The three of them walked out of the forest and towards Gumball's dorm together. Fionna was unsure what Cake had planned and how Marshall was going to tie into everything. But Cake never let her down before so this might actually work. They arrived at the dorm and stood beneath Gumball's window. Whistling could be heard from up above and Marshall rolled his eyes, digging his hands in his pockets.

"Okay, so here's the plan," Cake said. She pointed at Fionna. "You start saying things and," She pointed to Marshall, "you start laughing waaay loud. And then Gumball," she pointed upwards. "Will get jealous of," she pointed at Marshall again. "you. Which will awaken his Fionna love!"

"Are you sure Gumball is the jealous type?" Fionna said, glancing at his window.

"Just try it," Cake said, walking off to hide in the bushes nearby.

"Um... hmm funny... funny," Fionna said. "Giddy up?"

Marshall burst out laughing. Fionna started to laugh a little too. His reaction was so ridiculous that it made the both of them genuinely laugh at the stupidity of it all.

"Um... diggy diggy?" Fionna supplied.

He continued to laugh, making it louder and more exaggerated. Fionna repeated her phrase and clapped her hands. The both of them were still cracking up as Gumball opened his window to see who was interrupting his whistling practice. He saw the two of them hamming it up below and cleared his throat loudly. They stopped laughing and looked up at Gumball.

"Greetings, Fionna," he said pleasantly. His tone switched to annoyance. "Hey, Marshall."

The raven-haired boy waved his fingers in Gumball's direction. "Hellooooo, Bubba."

Gumball rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah." He smiled down at Fionna. "So, what's so funny, Fionna?"

"I, um... uh... it's... something," Fionna stammered, trying to come up with some excuse to Marshall's laughter.

"Well, then, keep it down out there!" Gumball said. "I'm trying to whistle practice." He started to close his windows and whistled as he did so. Fionna sighed and Marshall flipped his hair out of his eyes.

"Damn idiot," he muttered.

"That was great!" Cake complimented as she emerged from her hiding place. "Now, we begin with Phase 2! It's so powerful! Wait here!" She giggled excitedly and ran off. Fionna had a nasty feeling that Cake's next plan involved a dress.

"Hey look, Fionna, I know Cake's your friend and all, but... if you really want Gumball to go to the movies with you, you've gotta like, stop taking advice from a girl and take some advice from a guy," Marshall said, kicking the gravel under his sneakers around.

"But Cake said Phase 2 is powerful," Fionna reminded him.

Marshall blew a raspberry. "How is Cake gonna know what guys want more than a real guy?"

He had a point. "Yeah," Fionna muttered.

"Okay great. So what we need now is something... sexy! Guys love sexy girls more than anything." Fionna made a face. Marshall laughed. "I know it's gross but it's the truth. Sexy, sexy, sexy," he said. "If you can show Gumball you can be sexy, he'll deffs wanna go to movies with you."

"Are you sure? Gumball's not exactly a big pervert," Fionna said.

"Almost every single man on this planet has a part of their mind triggered by sexy stuff," Marshall said. "I'm not asking you to actually do it with him. Just show him that you're fearless."

Fionna laughed a little. "You said sexy so much, it sounds all weird now. Sexy. S-."

"So..." Marshall cut in, smiling a little at her immaturity. "What do you think sexy looks like, Fionna?"

"Oh, oh! I know!" She put on her best adorable face that made it look like she was begging for a cookie or something. Her eyes were big and her mouth was turned in a tiny frown. But to Marshall, it looked absolutely sexy. He pinched his nose and turned his eyes away from her gaze. Her face fell. "Not sexy enough?"

"No, no, that's perfect!" he said honestly, removing his hand from his nose. "All you need to do is get in there and make that exact face and show him how sexy you are."

He unlocked the door and walked in, beckoning Fionna to follow him. Fionna grinned and giggled to herself.

"Ssssseeexxxyyy," she said. "Ssseeexxxyyy." She shook her head at herself and started to walk after Marshall.

"Whoa, where are you going, Fi?" came Cake's voice from behind her. Fionna turned and Cake took out an article of clothing on a hanger. "Check it out!"

"What is that stuff?" Fionna asked, leaning towards it.

"It's lingerie! Guys love it!" Cake said with a wink. "Trust me."

Fionna backed away and shook her head. "What! No way in hell am I going to wear that crap!"

"Relax, I got a dress to go over it," Cake said, displaying the dress on another hanger behind the lace-covered undies. "It's great to show of the girls, if you know what I mean."

Fionna gave her an unimpressed look. This was going too far. First Marshall wants her to act sexy and now Cake is flashing this weird outfit in her face. She guessed they went hand in hand but it still bugged her. Cake ushered Fionna into the closet under the stairs in the boys' dorm and made Fionna change into the outfit.

When the blonde came out, her face was beat red. Her mouth was set in a pout and her eyes were looking everywhere but at Cake. The brunette clapped her hands in approval and marched her sister upstairs where Marshall was waiting impatiently by Gumball's bedroom. He glanced at Fiona and his eyes widened.

"Fionna! What the fuck are you wearing!?" Marshall gaped, his eyes combing over her body. "You look se-. I mean, uh, why are you- duh... uh..." He couldn't speak. He had gone all tongue-tied seeing her in that outfit. No doubt about it, Gumball would be leaking blood from his nose after he saw Fionna in that skimpy outfit and made that face.

"It's a dress covering her lingerie," Cake said. "And she looks beautiful."

"Well, it's going to great with our plan," he said, trying to act casual and looking at Cake instead of Fionna's obvious cleavage.

"What's he talking about, Fionna?" Cake demanded.

"Well... I was going to give Marshall's plan a try, too," Fionna said gently, pulling at the bottom her dress, trying to make it longer.

"His idea!? What's wrong with my idea?" Cake said as Marshall stuck his tongue out at her.

"Nothing!" Fionna said. "It'll go fine... I hope."

Gumball exited his dorm and the other two ran into the bathroom, opening it a crack to spy on the two of them. He was whistling pleasantly until is eyes landed on Fionna. He didn't even notice her outfit.

"Oh, hey, Fionna!" he greeted. "Are you here to see Mar- Whoa!" His eyes finally saw her dress. "What are you wearing?"

"Oh... this is my..." What was it exactly? She sent a glance in Cake's direction. Cake mouthed "lingerie" and pointed to her winking eye.

"My lingerie," Fionna said, cringing slightly and winking at Gumball.

He started to laugh. "Fionna, you look so cute!" He rumpled her hair and continued to laugh. "You're adorable!"

This was not going the way Cake planned. She smacked a hand to her forehead. Fionna sent a look in Marshall's direction that clearly read 'help me.' He pointed to his face and then pointed to her. She got the message and gave Gumball her "sexy" look. Gumball looked in her eyes and gave her a confused expression.

"What is it?" he said.

"Uh," Fionna muttered.

Seeing that this wasn't going as planned, Marshall ran out of the bathroom and took Fionna by the shoulders.

"Okay! Fionna!" Marshall said loudly, Cake creeping out of the restroom with a sigh. "Love the outfit. Let's go to drama club and see what they think about the costume. Sorry we gotta leave, Gumball."

The three of them rushed out of the hall and Fionna grabbed her clothes, changing back into her day clothes, tossing the sexy wear into Cake's face. They walked out of the dorm and Marshall leaned on Gumball's car that was parked in the drive-way.

"That outfit was ridiculous," he said bluntly.

"Ridi- ridiculous?" Cake repeated hotly. "What? Can you believe this boy, Fionna? Huh? Can ya?"

"Uh... I guess the dress did feel... a little silly," Fionna admitted, not wanting to hurt her sister's feelings.

Cake glared at them. "Well, fine! I'll take it back then!"

"I'm sorry!" Fionna said.

"Good luck getting to that movie without my help!" Cake snapped. "Hmph!" She stormed away in the direction of her dorm.

"Damn, she seems pretty ticked," Marshall pointed out as they watched her retreating figure.

"Naw, he just needs some spaghetti," Fionna said.

Marshall raised his eyebrows at Fionna. "Oh, okay." He kicked off of Gumball's car and leaned closer to Fionna. "Well taste this, then. I've got a new plan."

"Really?" Maybe she wasn't out of chances.

"The only thing dudes like more than sexy chicks; is cars!" He patted Gumball's sleek Mercedes. "He needs to see you're just as smart as he is when it comes to sleek, motor mechanics."

He opened the garage and entered it. Fionna waited until she heard the rev of an engine come from inside. Marshall drove out onto the driveway on his motorcycle. He handed her a helmet and grinned.

"C'mon, I'll teach ya how to show a guy a good time," he promised. Fionna took the helmet and hopped on, wrapping her arms around his waist. "Hold tight. You ready?"

"Uh..." She tightened her grip. "Mhmm."

Marshall kicked his bike into gear and laughed. They drove down the streets in the direction of the on campus suppliers. AAA was kind of like it's own little city so it had everything a student could possibly need. A hospital, furniture store, restaurants, and other things. So it was no surprise that an auto-parts store was nearby. They parked in front of the local mechanics shop and Marshall ran Fionna through some facts about cars and bikes. He was looking for a motor mechanics minor so Fionna knew she could trust Marshall. But would Gumball like her new skills?


After a few hours of learning a ton of things about motorized vehicles, the sun was slowly setting. Fionna only had a few hours left until she was dateless and at home alone. They drove back to Marshall and Gumball's dorm and parked the motorcycle back in the garage. Marshall popped open Gumball's hood and revealed the amazing German engineering beneath it.

"Are you sure I'm ready to do this?" Fionna asked. She didn't want to screw up Gumball's car in any way.

"Totally!" Marshall assured. "I'll be right here if anything goes wrong. Just make a lot of noise with this." He handed her a power drill. "He'll come out to see what's going on."

Fionna pulled the little trigger and revved the drill's tip a few times.

"This was a really good idea," she said with a smile.

"Now don't blow it this time!" he warned, backing into the garage so he wouldn't be seen.

"Okay," Fionna said, her face set with determination.

Doing as told, Fionna worked rather skillfully on Gumball's car. She didn't move anything out of place. She just tightened a few things and made plenty of noise with the power drill. The front door opened and Gumball stepped out, his eyebrows raised and wondering who was making so much noise.

"Fionna?" he said, surprised to find her there. "What are you doing?"

"I'm fixing up your car," Fionna said. "I heard you talking about how it wasn't running too well so I thought, why not fix it?" That wasn't a total lie. Gumball had complained to Marshall a few days ago about his car.

Gumball strode over and observed her work. He smiled and then walked to the driver's seat. Fionna stepped back as he turned on his car. The engine roared to life and then purred gently, running smoothly.

"Wow! Thanks Fionna!" he said, getting out of his car after turning it off. "It's like a dream." He patted her on the head affectionately. "How much do I owe you?"

"What? Oh, no charge," she said modestly.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah... unless you're not busy tonight," she said hopefully.

"Actually, I have a soufflé baking in the oven right now that I have to prepare for Professor Stumps," he said. "Sorry. But thanks anyway!" He walked back into the house, shutting the door behind him.

Fionna was defeated. All of her attempts were for nothing. She shut the hood of his car and walked away sadly. Marshall called out for her but she didn't turn around. He glared in Gumball's direction and shook his head.


Fionna was sitting on her bed in a slight slump, her back leaning against the wall. Her eyes were downcast as she stared down at the floor. She heard a few voices downstairs and she assumed that it was Mocro coming to pick up Cake for a bite to eat before the movie started. Instead, she heard a soft knock on her door a few seconds later. She looked up to see Marshall Lee entering her room with a small smile.

"Hey," he said.

"Hi," she replied.

He sat beside her on the bed and she heaved a sigh.

"I don't understand, Marshall Lee. I tried everything," Fionna said. "I guess he just doesn't like me."

He placed a finger on her lips to silence her. "Shhh. Come on, Fionna, a brainlord like Bubba?" He removed his finger and he grinned. "You'll be bored with him in a week! It's partially my fault, too. All those things I said guys like... well, I think Gumball is an exception to the rule." Fionna still wouldn't smile. "And anyway I, for one, think you're pretty great." He leaned towards her and gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Fionna's face turned red as he stood up and stretched. She watched him walked towards the door.

"Sorry it didn't work out the way you wanted," he said honestly. "See you later, I guess!" He waved goodbye and walked down the stairs and out of the dorm.

The room was silent for a moment before she perked up. She smiled and punched the palm of her hand with her fist.

"Marshall Lee! Of course! It's been Marshall all along!" she said excitedly.

Cake entered her room, looking a little guilty. They didn't speak to one another when Fionna arrived. Cake was eating her pasta and Fionna wasn't in to mood to talk. But now, Cake wanted to apologize to Fionna. She sat beside her sister and sighed.

"Hey, sweetie. Sorry for acting like a dweeb before," Cake said. "Want some leftover spaghetti?"

Fionna got to her feet. "No thanks, Cake. But I really need your help!"

Cake grinned and stood too. " 'Bout time! What do we have to do?"


Marshall Lee was in his living room, tuning his guitar. If he was going to be home, he might as well do what he loved. He was about to play the first note of one of his songs when he heard a knock on front door. He growled and stood, walked over to the door and opened it. There stood Fionna in her "sexy outfit" with Cake standing a little ways away.

"Uh-oh," Marshall said.

"Marshall Lee!" Fionna shouted happily. "Will you go to the movies with me!?"

"We need to talk..." Marshall said cautiously, not wanting to hurt her. He stepped to the side and let the two girls enter. They followed him into the living room and Fionna sang to Marshall.

"Good evening, my dear," she chimed. "Your escort is here!"

Fionna, you do not want to go down that road with me," he warned her.

"With you, I would walk down any road," she declared. "Especially if it leads to the movies!"

"Oh yeah?" he said, crossing his arms. "You would want to go with a guy like me?"

"How do you like your popcorn?" she asked innocently.

"Ugh!" He grabbed his hair with his hands. "You're starting to annoy me!"

"Well then let's do something fun! Like go to the movies!"

Fionna gave him a bear hug and he pushed her off of him.

"Get off me!" he snapped.

She landed on the couch and she sat up straight as Marshall sat next to her. Cake was hiding behind the couch as she watched the scene unfold before her.

"Fionna, I like you, but I-," he began but he was cut off when he glanced at her face. She was giving him that look. His eyes widened and he shoved his hand in her face. "No! Stop!" Fionna pushed was against the arm rest. "Listen to me. I'm not going to go to the movies with you! I just don't like you... that way." He removed his hand from her face an Fionna's normal pout replaced the previous expression. He sighed. "I'm sorry, Fionna, I just... I don't wanna date you. Besides, I'm with Ashley and-."

Fionna gave him a strange look. "Date me? Man, I just wanna go to movies!" she explained. "But everyone hates me."

"Wait, you don't want me to be your boyfriend?"

"Huh? No! Movies!" Fionna said, sitting up and putting her hands on her lips.

He started to smile. "If you weren't looking for a boyfriend, then how come you were romancing it up all day?"

" 'Cause Cake said Couples Night have these weird kissing requirements and romance initiations and whatever else," Fionna said.

Cake shook her head. "I didn't really say all that." She sunk behind the couch, mumbling something incoherently. Marshall laughed and clapped a hand on Fionna's shoulder.

"Of course I'll go with you, Fionna!" he said.

"You will?" Fionna beamed.

"Yeah, as friends."

She nodded. "Of course as friends!"

"But no tongue."

"Yea- wha?"


That night, Marshall picked Fionna up on his motorcycle. She bounded out of her house in her usual day clothes and jumped onto his bike with a laugh. They grinned as they drove down to the drive-in. They arrived at the movies and Marshall parked his bike in a decent spot. The pair got off of the bike and leaned against an old pile of wood to watch the movie together.

"Oh man! I can't believe I'm finally gonna see this movie," she said happily.

The projector played and the title credits started to roll. The title Love Kaboom appeared and the movie began. A man and woman were standing in the scene, talking to one another lovingly.

"Oh, mon cher," the woman sighed. "I guess zese is goodbye."

Fionna and Marshall glanced at one another with confused expressions on their faces. They continued to watch but the other viewers were becoming distracting.

"No, not goodbye," the man said. "Let's say: Farewell!" The two characters started to kiss.

Fionna glanced around the crowd of students. Cake and Mocro were making out in his car, another couple couldn't be seen but their car was moving back and forth. Fionna grimaced and Marshall made a noise of disgust.

"Couples Night sucks!" Fionna declared. "Marshall Lee, would you do me the honor, of getting us the hell out of here?"

"There's nothing I'd like more!" Marshall laughed, taking Fionna but the hand and dragged her over to the bike. He revved it into life and they both started to cheer, leaving the movie behind them. "Let's go get some pizza! On me!" Marshall promised.

"Sounds good," Fionna agreed.

Although the movie and Couples Night wasn't as great as everyone said it was. And even though this night didn't exactly turn out the way she wanted, Fionna was happy that she had someone to share the night with. And Marshall felt the same way.


Fiolee goodness! Yes! :D
