Hello! This is, um, well, it's pretty indescribable. Romance, a dash of humor, jealousy, it's all over the place. I'm sorry if it seems the story has ADHD, because I'm not used to writing in this point of view. In fact, this is only my second attempt.

Notice: This is a one-shot, but I COULD turn it into a multi-chapter story if you guys want too. I'll post a poll on my profile for you to vote on.

Disclaimer: I don't own Adventure Time with Finn and Jake nor it's assets. (Hehe)

Enjoy!

Sea Breeze

"Sorry Peebles, but I can't go," stated Finn the Human. He had been personally invited by Princess Bubblegum to a party at the beach, but his thalassophobia, fear of the ocean, had re-emerged a few weeks ago when a monster Finn and Jake were chasing after ran into the vast body of water, but unlike last time, he kept it to himself out of pride. Plus, he was pretty sure Jake didn't want to get beat up again.

"But why Finn?" asked the scientist. She had noticed that she was pushing Finn away recently, so she threw a party to apologize.

"I-Can you keep a secret Princess?" said the teenager. It would be really embarrassing if it was known that "Finn the Hero" was afraid of a body of water. The pink-ette nodded. "I'm afraid of the ocean."

That's when the laughter started. "F-Finn! Are y-you serious? Thalassophobia is c-completely i-illogical! I mean - hahahaha!" Bonnibel's normally light pink skin was shaded red from laughing, tears flowing from her eyes.

Finn would've blushed, if he didn't have a new love interest. Flame Princess. Even if they liked each other, they would only hurt each other, but Finn had something up his sleeves.

"Just laugh it up Peebles," said Finn. At that, the Candy Princess stopped laughing.

"I'm apologize for my imprudence. So you really can't go?" asked PB.

"No, sorry Princess," said Finn, fingering the little vial in his pocket. It was filled with Flambo's magic-infused spit. A portable Flame Shield spell.

"What if I help you?" questioned Princess Bubblegum.

Finn replied, "No need PB. Wouldn't want you to go through all that trouble. Jake almost died when he tried!"

The Princess wouldn't be fazed, even at the prospect of death. She owed the young hero that much. "But what if... there's an ocean monster that needs fighting?"

"Jake could handle it. He did pretty well last time," answered the young warrior. He was starting to get apprehensive. Wasn't Princess Bubblegum pushing him away? So why was she doing this?

"How about... if your love interest wants to go there?" retorted Princess Bubblegum, fully knowing that SHE was his love interest. Or maybe Marceline...

"My crush would never go near a body of water, much less an ocean," stated the fourteen year old.

"W-Who's your love interest?" asked the regal woman. She was shocked. So he DOES like Marceline... but Marceline isn't afraid of water. Nothing adds up...

"Never mind. So are you sure you want to help me get over my fear of the ocean?"

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaahg! Nononononono!" said Finn, who was being inched towards the ominous waves by his former crush. Internally, he was a wreck. His need to not harm an innocent was conflicting with his thalassophobia, so he was losing his sanity. All he wanted to do was push Princess Bubblegum down, put his shirt back on and run for the tree house, and it took all of his will power not to do that. Then he remembered something.

"Peebles wait!" exclaimed Finn, though the Princess, who was in her bikini, was unrelenting. "My vial!"

"What is it?" asked the one of royal blood. She inferred that Finn was just stalling, but the urgency in his last two words made her stop. He ducked out of her grasp and ran towards the table, placing the spit on it. For a split second, he thought about escaping, but decided not too. When he reached the princess, she said, "What was that all about?"

"I had too keep my Flame Shield potion safe," said Finn.

"And why do you need a Flame spell potion?" asked Princess Bubblegum.

"Ah-I... um," mumbled Finn. He would trust Princess Bubblegum with anything other than this. He didn't want his crush on Flame Princess getting out so soon. People might hurt her out of jealousy or hatred of Finn. Also, he didn't know what PB would think of it. "Uh... aha! Jake and I are planning to have an adventure in the Fire Kingdom tomorrow! You know, see if anyone there needs help."

The princess was still apprehensive, but let go of the topic, "Okay... sure. Let's get back to business, shall we?" Then she grabbed Finn's shoulders and pushed him towards the ocean. Against his will, his heels dug into the sand, effectively slowing down the whole operation, which earned the human a gentle kick from the candy person.

"You silly boy, walk properly!" said the pink-ette in a gentle tone. Finn, who was now walking like a normal person, was shaking in his shorts, the sinister water approaching. Once his bare feet touched the water, he screamed, flipped over the princess and ran to the table.

Princess Bubblegum sighed. This was going to take a while. She approached the hero, who was curled up in a fetal position. "Finn, get up!" said PB, nudging the boy with her foot. No response.

"Come on Finn!" She applied more force in her nudge. She didn't want it to come to this, but it looked like she didn't have a choice. She reached over to her beach bag and brought out a pair of pink gauntlets, the same pair that she would have used on the Ice King when he accidentally froze her citizens. "Finn, don't make me have to use negative reinforcement!"

"I'm not going back there dude!" said Finn, who stood up and was slowly backing away. Then he bolted. Before they arrived at the beach, he had promised that he wouldn't leave the beach till he could swim in the ocean waters, so by his code of honor he couldn't escape into the nearby woods. But no one said anything about running away.

"FINN!" yelled the princess, which was unlike her normal composed self. She sprinted towards the retreating form of the human. Both were at equal speed, due to Finn's athleticism and Bonnibel's thin body and long legs. Then the princess did a desperate tackle, sending both of them tumbling, her body on top of Finn's.

Normally Finn would've fainted with this much intimate contact, thought the pink-ette, especially since I'm in my two-piece. I guess he really loves that princess. For some reason, the Pink Princess felt a pang of... jealousy. She shook these thoughts out of her head and lifted Finn up. She then threw him into the waters.

"Agh! AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH AH!" yelled Finn, who was flailing in the water like a madman. Bubblegum, who had waded to where he was, said, "Calm down!"

Finn did not calm down. In fact, he might've been thrashing even harder. Maybe if I give him something special, thought Princess Bubblegum. She slowly leaned in, holding Finn's arms in place.

Thoughts rushed into his mind. Why was she leaning in? Then it hit him. He turned his head, so instead of a full on lip-lock, it was just a basic kiss on the cheek. Finn was so shocked by the action that he stopped flailing.

"W-Why'd you do that Princess?" asked Finn, his fear of the ocean dissipating. He could only wish Flame Princess had kissed him. When he thought of his love actually kissing him, combined with the shock from his former crush's kiss, his manifestation of fear went out of his belly button. "Wow, I don't have The... thee... thasse..."

"It's Thalassophobia, silly boy!" said Princess Bubblegum, who was still pondering over the kiss. Why did she feel disappointed when Finn turned his head around? And why did she kiss him?

"Jeez, thanks Peebles! I guess I can go to your party- Jake?" said Finn. When Princess Bubblegum turned around, she saw Finn's canine brother towering over the nearby forest. "How'd you know I was here?"

"I asked Peppermint Butler. Wait, dude! You're not afraid of the ocean!" said Jake. "Anyway I tracked 'You-Know-Who' down! She's at the Park!"

"Thanks a lot Princess," said Finn, giving her a quick hug, "but I gotta go, so see you at the party tomorrow!" He swam to shore, grabbing his stuff and dry clothes on his way. He jumped on top of his steed.

"What time is it?" said Finn.

"It's smooching time!" teased Jake, which earned him a punch.

"Shut up man!" yelled Finn, who was blushing hard. Then the duo departed from the beach. The Candy Princess walked back to shore, putting away her metal gauntlets.

He's going to where his crush is? And they like each other? Ugh, why am I caring? thought the princess.

"Flame Princess!" yelled Finn, back-flipping off of Jake. Flame Princess was about to experiment with the sand when her crush interrupted. "I found out how we can defy nature!"

At those words, her spirits lifted. She had the chance to be with her human. "Really Finn?"

The boy brought out a vial. "This stuff makes me immune to fire for a limited time. Sure it may not be permanent, but we'll find a way." He then poured the contents on top of his head, which turned his body blue. He then walked up to her, his arms open.

"Um, I guess we can hug... and stuff," said Finn, enclosing the fire elemental in his arms. The princess obliged, putting her head into the crook of his neck. Then Finn leaned in, with Flame Princess waiting for the inevitable kiss. Then they were interrupted.

"Sir Finn, Princess Bubblegum is in trouble!" said a candy messenger behind him, who was panting from all the sprinting. "It's the Ice King!"
