AN~ I don't own Adventure time.

When I wake up I find Cake sitting in front of me, scaring the hell outta me. She laughs as I catch my breath. I glare at her as she tries to stop laughing.

"Did Bubba say where he was taking you?" Cake says between laughs.

"No," I let out a sigh and sit up. I towards the window, the sun was pouring light in.

"Well, with him I would say dress up super fancy." Cake says finally calming down.

"Ugh," I groan. "I don't want to wear anymore dresses!"

"You only need to wear a dress one more time. With ML you won't need to wear a dress," She says that like she is annoyed. She loves dressing me up in fancy and little less fancy dresses.

"That's what I like about Marshall, I don't have to dress up." I explain looking back at Cake. "With him I can be myself, I don't have to act fancy and pretend to be a happy little doll. I hate acting like a doll, I want adventure and action! Him and I could go adventuring and I wouldn't have to worry about protecting himself, he can fight. He doesn't have to protect me, and I don't have to protect him. We can fight side by side, together in any battle." Cake frowns at this, which confuses me.

"Baby cake, you want a guy that can protect you." She says. I roll my eyes at her.

"Bubba wouldn't be able to, he can't even protect himself from the Ice Queen. If I'm not there to protect him, he is stuck in her freaking ice cage and I have to break him out. I can't even kiss Ignitus without getting burnt in the process. So if that logic is what you are going by I'm still looking at Marshall." I said. She smirks.

"And I know that is the one you really want." She says. With that I felt incredibly guilty.

"This is what they wanted." I say looking down. "I just hope when I make my choice they still stay friends with me." I could see it now both Ignitus and PG turning their backs to me because I choose Marshall Lee over them. PG wouldn't let me in the kingdom, and I wouldn't be able to keep Ignitus from burning cities down. I let out a sigh.

"Cake, I don't know what to do anymore," I admit. She grows larger and hugs me like our mom did when I had a nightmare when I was younger.

"Follow your heart, that's all I can tell you to do." She says rubbing my back.

"What if the other two hate me for it?" I say looking up at her.

"Then they weren't worth the effort in the first place." She says. "Gumball won't hate you. He will understand."

"But what if Ignitus gets mad and burns down cities?" I ask. Her face grows grim.

"We will have to put the lives of the innocents before his. You know what we will end up having to do," she says. I hated the truth but I did know, we would have to 'contain' his flames. After a little bit of silence Cake calls up Gumball to see what he wants me to wear. Once she is done talking to him she turns and smiles at me evilly.

I was right to know I was going to have to dress up. I always have to when it comes to Prince Gumball. Cake forces me into a giant pink puff ball of a dress. The top was tight from my breasts down to my hip then it puffs out like a giant flower. It was sleeveless, which annoyed me too, since I felt the need to pull up the dress every three seconds even though it was to tight to move off me on its own. There was a silvery design on the top that resembled flowers, the skirt part had a layer above everything else to make it look super sparkly. I glare at Cake.

"I hate you," I say through gritted teeth. She just smiles.

"I love you too, sis," She replies. I let out a sigh and roll my eyes. She grows taller and starts rubbing stuff on my face.

"Stop it," I swat at her.

"I'm almost done," She says as she plasters on lipstick. When she finally moves back my face felt faker than anything I've ever seen. I look in a mirror.

"I don't even look like myself." I complain. My hair was curled and pulled back in a low bun allowing just some of my bangs to frame my face.

"Come on, hun," She says and takes my hand and pulls me out of the room and out of the tree fort. She takes me to Gumball's palace.

"I hate this," I murmur for the hundredth time as I get off her. She stands up and fixes my hair making me groan.

"You look wonderful," She smiles proudly. I glare at her.

"Thanks." I say shortly.

"I'll get you when the sun starts to set." She says.

"I'll walk." I say turning my back towards her and walking into the palace. I found Ms. Peppermint waiting for me in the main hall at the front doors. She smiles as the door closes.

"The prince is waiting for you in the grand ball room." She says politely and starts to lead me.

"I think he is over doing this," I say mostly under my breath. She either didn't hear me or wanted to say anything because she staid quiet for the whole walk to the ballroom. It was set up like he was going to have an actual ball rather than a small date with me. Peppermint maid leaves as I walk into the room. Gumball was standing in the middle of the room. The light was dimmed, the whole room was beautiful. Soft music floated around the room.

"Will you, princess Fionna, let me have this dance with you," Gumball asks all formally holding his hand out for me to take. I bite the inside of my cheek and force myself to smile. I walk towards him and let him take my hand. "You look as beautiful as always," He smiles kissing my hand. He takes that hand in his, I place my other hand on his shoulder as his free hand touches my hip. I like him a lot, I truly do, but this didn't feel right. I let him twirl me around and we dance for a while till I grow light headed.

"You are so quiet," He says as he leans close to me. His eyes full of worry. "What is wrong?"

"Nothing," I force myself to smile brightly. "I'm just getting light headed," I lie. He doesn't detect the lie as he nods his head. We stop dancing and he leads me to the small table next to the wall. The table was light by two candles. He pulls my seat out for me and I have to fight the skirt of my dress down around me. He had prepared a wonderful meal of roasted goose, which I didn't think I would like and truly I wasn't really found of it but I didn't say that to Gumball, and carrot cake, which he found amusing since I'm almost always wearing my bunny hat. I look over at a window and notice the scenery changing to nighttime. I found my chance to escape.

"Oh, Cake is probably waiting for me outside, it is starting to get dark." I say standing up. He quickly stands up and holds my hand.

"I'm glad you were able to take your time and be with me." He says and without a warning he leans down and kisses me. His lips were soft against mine tasting of sweet gum. The kiss lasted much longer than I would like but his lips tasted too good for me to back down first. His lips left mine and his eyes were thick with an emotion I've never seen him wear before.

"I hope you choose me," He says softly. "If you choose me, I'll be able to make any of your wishes come true." He promises. He doesn't know what I want, and the wishes I do want he doesn't have the power to grant them. I just smile.

"Promise me you stay my friend no matter who I choose," I beg him. His lips frown but he nods.

"I'll always be here for you." He says. I smile softly.

"Bye," I say as I let go of his hand.

"Bye," I hear him say softly. I felt bad for doing this to him, but he wanted this. He wanted me to make a choice and he knew very well that I might choose someone else. I walk the forest trail alone starring down at the dirt road.

"Hey there," I jump at the sound of a voice. I whip around to see Marshall Lee floating along the trees. My cheeks heat up embarrassed to be around him in this monster of a dress.

"Hey," I say crossing my arms.

"How'd Bubba's date go?" He asks floating closer.

"Okay," I answer.

"And the brat's," he asks.

"Again okay," I reply. He smiles.

"Looking forward to our date?" He asks.

"Yes," I admit, then I give him a doubtful look, "Unless you want me to wear a dress. I think I've worn enough dresses to last a life time." He gives me a devious smile.

"I might tell Cake to dress you up," He lies.

"I might not go then." I bluff. He smirks.

"You do look cute in that dress though." He says honestly. "I'm actually kinda jealous of the other guys, they get to see you in a dress. But wear less make up the next time though."

"I didn't do the makeup, Cake did." I explain.

"I know," he says all knowingly. "You know how I know?"

"No," I answer.

"Because," he softly says floating closer just softly touching my shoulder. "I've told you before that you are beautiful without it so you don't wear that crap unless Cake forces you to." I smile.

"I'm going to break hearts," I say softly looking at him. "I hope they don't hate me for it."

"They won't hate you, they'll hate me." He says kissing my cheek, making me blush.

"This is cheating," I smile. He picks me up and puts me on his lap.

"I never said I played fairly with the others." He says. I couldn't help but laugh. With him I felt free, with Gumball I had to act like royalty, with Ignitus I couldn't touch him. If it wasn't for the fact I couldn't touch Ignitus there would have a real rival in this unfair match. I let him take me to the tree fort and dropping me off before I got to close to the fort that Cake would be able to see us together.

"I'll see you tomorrow?" He asks.

"Of course." I answer and walk towards the fort. The rest of the walk was done in silence. Cake was again asleep on the couch. I shimmy out of the dress and into p-jays and lay down with Cake on the couch.

I feel bad not giving Gumball a fair chance...I'm not much of a gum lover. Sorry. Well as usual I love getting reviews so please leave some for me~!
