Fell Agreement

Chapter 1: Miles Apart

It had been a year since Ryu left the Smash Mansion, and the other Smashers noticed Little Mac behaving differently. Every morning, the boxer stands near the forest where Ryu had left in, waiting for his lover's return. He spaced out as he stood there, remembering all the times the two had spent together.

The Smashers had also noticed that Little Mac's fighting records weren't as good as when Ryu was around. He lost almost every match due to him thinking about his lover, and he even refused to fight in matches due to being 'sick'.

The boxer also stayed in his room all day, staring at the window. Sometimes, he grabbed some papers and a pen to write a letter to Ryu. However, having no idea where Ryu was now, he kept them under his bed.

Even his training had been affected. Doc attempted to convince Little Mac to train for the next match, but the boxer refused. No matter how many times Doc tried to bribe him to train, Little Mac said that he doesn't feel like it and walk off.

Now, Little Mac was staring out the window, sighing. Memories flooded in his mind, and tears threatened to fall from his eyes.

Turning to his desk that was on the side of his room, he saw a framed picture of himself and Ryu, smiling after a match.

He picked up the photograph, studying it intently. A flashback began to flood in his mind.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"Ryu." Ryu said.

"Ryu, huh?" The man tilted his head.

Ryu approached him, and he realized that the other man was…too short for someone his age.

"Hey…" Ryu said, chuckling as he placed his hand on his own head. Checking his height, he then placed his hand on the other man's head. "You're short," he commented.

The man's face turned red. "EXCUSE ME?!"

Suddenly, Ryu felt a sharp pain on his groin. He screamed, in an extremely high-pitched tone, and fell to the ground.

The man had punched him in the groin. He glared down at Ryu, his jaw tightly clenched. "Don't say anything about my height!" he yelled.

Ryu felt tears welling in his eyes from the pain. After the man's vehement statement, he left with a "hmph".

Little Mac chuckled when the first memory was gone a moment later. That was the first time we met, he thought.

Placing the picture back down on the desk, he walked to his bed and sat in it. Looking over the bed that Ryu once laid in, another memory appeared in his mind.

"Good job," the boxer complimented with a smile.

Ryu's expression mirrored Little Mac's as he grabbed the boxer's outstretched hand. When Little Mac pulled him up from the ground he commented, "You did well too, you know. I respect that."

Little Mac placed his gloved hand on the back of his head, blushing. "Thanks…"

Little Mac sighed once the memory disappeared. "That was when we became friends," he said to himself, staring at Ryu's bed.

Closing his eyes, yet another memory appeared.

Ryu placed his hand on Little Mac's, squeezing it gently in a comforting manner. "Don't worry...I won't let anything like this happen."

"Same, Ryu…"

Little Mac shook his head, tears welling up in his eyes. "Why can't I stop thinking about you…?" he asked no one in particular.

More memories began to flood his mind.

"R-Ryu…?" Little Mac questioned, staring up at his friend. The memories of them being together flooded his mind and tears began to form in his eyes.

Little Mac had snapped out of it.

Ryu was also in tears as well, overjoyed that his friend had returned to normal. "Mac! You're all right…" Ryu cried as he held him tightly. After a few seconds, he let him go.

"Mac…" Ryu trailed off before he spoke again. "I'll protect you. Always. All right?"

Little Mac nodded. "All right…"

Ryu turned his head to Little Mac, holding his hand. "I'll watch over you, Little Mac. I won't let anything happen to you."

Little Mac smiled at Ryu's kindness. "Thank you, Ryu…"

Finally, the last memory that appeared in his mind broke him:

Before Little Mac could say anything else, Ryu tilted the boxer's chin up, and their lips met. Little Mac blushed hard, but he closed his eyes, accepting the kiss.

After what felt like forever, Ryu broke the kiss.

Tears began to fall, and Little Mac held his head, sobbing. "Ryu…" he sobbed, looking up at Ryu's bed again. "…I miss you…"

Constructive criticism is welcomed! :D
