She denied it constantly.

She denied the fact that she loves him. how could she love someone so...uptight- actually a better word, narcissistic. Samus lie down on the trunk of the huge tree by the hot springs that Toon Link discovered while venturing the fields surrounded by the gates of Smash Manor. A scowl was taped on her face, still thinking why couldn't it have been someone else whom she had fell in love with.

"And then I just have to go and crush on him like a 14-year old schoolgirl! God, I need to relax.." She muttered while looking over at the hot springs. The bounty huntress got up and went to go get a towel to cover herself while going in and out of the soothing pool. (A/N: Yes, for people who don't know, you go in a hot spring naked.)

As she made her way to Smash Manor, she saw the familiar face of the teal-haired noble. "Oh, kon'nichiwa, hello, Samus!" "Hey.." Samus replied in a sort-of shaky voice. "What were you doing all the way over there?" Marth asked. "Oh, I was going to get in the hot springs." Samus answered.

What she said next made her surprise herself. "Wanna go with me?" The king could see a tint of red in her cheeks, he smiled calmly. "Sure, that would be lovely. Arigato gozimasu; thank you for inviting me!" The blonde bounty huntress nodded after recomposing herself. "Uh, you're welcome."

[TIME SKIP]

"This feels nice.." The huntress got in the pool of water quickly. Samus's words trailed off when she looked over at the monarch, looking up at the beautiful cherry blossom trees at the base of the hot springs.

"You're interested in cherry blossoms?" She asked him. She finally realized that she wasn't herself again. "I mean, what's with you and those trees?" The Altean in question chuckled at her statement. "Ah. They remind me of my home. When I was still an heir to my father's throne, cherry blossom trees like these used to be grown all around Altea.." "Hah, that's cool." Samus slid down deeper into the water, still thinking about how strange she'd been acting.

"Hey, Samus?" Samus turned to Marth's smirking face. "I've noticed something. You're not as bad as you seem. I mean, people always see you as cold and malicious; but once I got to know you, you're actually a very kind person." Samus gave a small grin. "And I thought you were bossy and self-centered, but now I know that you aren't anything like that, either!" "Thank y- wait a second, you thought I was what?" The king looked like he was about to throw a fit and have Samus's head. "Oh nothing~!" Samus cooed, which made Marth chuckle. The bounty huntress suddenly tensed up. The monarch noticed this. "Samus, is there anything wrong..? Ah!"

Marth was pulled into a kiss by the blonde, her face was a deep crimson red. They parted and gasped for air. "O-oh..that w-was.." Marth stuttered, his face had turned red as well. Samus was deeply embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I couldn't control myself! I-" Samus's eyes widened when the teal-haired noble kissed her on the cheek. "Heh, it's alright. You know, I like you too.. It's okay if you're not yourself sometimes, that happens to me all of the time. Sometimes I get a little shy, everyone does, even if you act differently." "Thanks, Marth. That... kinda made me feel a lot better." Samus coyly shared a hug with the noble, thinking about spending the rest of the day with him.

Maybe...
