Marceline smiled as the celebration began to wind down, not that it had been a huge parrty to begin with, Jake and Lady had gone an hour or so before leaving just the four of them, just the four of them. . .and Simon. She couldn't help but smile across the room in the ice palace at him with Betty curled up on his lap, head on his chest; They finally had what they wanted, herself included Simon was back and he was with Betty. She even caught Finn and Bubblegum grinning at the pair of them. They'd all had a hand in bringing him out of the crown's control, Betty's research, PB's mad science skills, Finn recovering the lost artifact they needed and Marcy herself getting the Ice King to cooperate, which had actually been pretty easy, she always had a calming effect on him. The party was over and everyone was easing in to that lazy sluggish contented after party glow. Yawning Betty snuggled in closer and Simon smiled as he stroked her hair, her hand slipping under his jacket to pull closer, when suddenly she stopped. "What's this?" Betty asked as she pulled something from the inside pocket of Simon's jacket. He shrugged as she drew out the long envelope, on the front in an almost childlike script was written "My Friends." Opening it she began to read over what was written in the letter, eyes beginning to shine as they moved along the page. "Well. . .what does it say?" Marcy asked, and Betty handed the letter to Simon, and he read out loud.

If you're reading this

then everything went well

I'm glad you all got Simon back.

You guys made him sound swell

But if your plan goes smoothly

and Simon is set free

I couldn't help but thinking

What's does the mean for me?

You want your childhood friend back

you miss your fiancee

Cuz he won't mess with princesses

I just, have to go away

Of course I didn't fight it

How could I refuse

If I told you. "Chose between us."

I think we all know who would lose

I wonder if I'll get to die

I really hope I do

Cuz' then one day on the other side

I'll see all of you.

I only ask one favor

even if their not good memories

take one day in winter

wear a sweater

drink some cocoa

watch a movie

think fond. . .think of me?

Please forgive me for

the things I couldn't be

Just please, remember me.
