Finn.

I ran toward the Candy Kingdom, more then excited to see Princess Bubblegum's pink face. Jake would be with me but it was 4 o'clock and he had to hang out with Lady. I pushed through the crowd of Candy people on the street. Finally I arrived at the massive Candy castle nodding at the candy guards that opened the palace doors for me. I hurried up the stairs to P.B's room.

I stopped, suddenly aware of noises beyond the door. I put my ear to the door, very curious to why there were no guards by the door. I could make out two voices… one belonged to P.B. the other to… Marceline? 'What was Marceline doing in P.B's room?' I asked myself.

"Marceline!" I heard Princess Bubblegum say.

"Yes Bonnibel?" Marceline replied slyly.

"You- You can't be here right now! Finn is on his way and if he walks in he could-" She was silenced by something I couldn't hear through the door.

"MARCELINE! Are you even listening to me! Finn. Is. Coming."

"So? Why can't you just say you love me? I love you. It shouldn't matter if somebody catches us Bonnie."

I played what Marceline said back in my head. 'I love you' 'I love you' 'I love you'. I felt about ready to pass out on the floor when the door suddenly opened. Princess Bubblegum and I stared at each other in pure shock for about 5 minutes until she finally was able to speak.

"F-Finn! I-I-uh… I can explain! J-just wait…" she stuttered.

It was too late though I was already running away, tears forming in my eyes. I think she tried to run after me but after a moment stopped and started crying.

I ran all the way to my tree house. And when I did get there I ran up the stairs to my cot and stuffed my face in my pillow and sobbed hard and loud.

I cried for a long, long time I felt as if my very heart was pulled from my body, beat to a pulp, and shoved back in. It wasn't until Jake came back home that I stopped crying I didn't want my bro to see me like that. I washed my face deleting any evidence of tears from my face, my eyes were puffy but I couldn't do anything about that.

Apparently none of my efforts mattered. Jake stared at me for a long time before realizing that I was crying because of the princess.

"Dude…What happened?" he asked.

"The princess… is in love with somebody else." I replied making sure to not mention who that 'somebody' was.

"Oh… Well… Do you want to adventuring to take your mind off of it?" He asked cheerily.

"Uh… Sure… We could check out that portal we saw! It looked totally mathematical!"
