Marth's POV~
I'm tired of it. I'm tired of all these excuses. It bothers me greatly. Ike hasn't even talked to me this whole week, and tomorrow is Valentine's Day. I feel as if he's through with our relationship. It hurts my already weakened heart and soul; my darkened heart and soul. Ike is the only one that found the key to my emotions that left me long ago. He's that special persona who cared about me when I first joined SSBB. I always thought that emotions only made you weaker (especially when your father whips and punishes you for any emotion on your face). 'Oh… those days when my father would lock me up in my room, not allowing me to escape.' I thought to myself as I silently made my way downstairs into the training room. I had polished Falchion, my sword, while I was alone in my very spotless room (I hadn't slept or used my room because I usually sleep with Ike). I sighed quietly as I entered the training room, all my emotions were swept from my face. I stepped up to a Mr. Sandbag and unsheathed my sword, preparing to go through a quick run through of my attacks. Immediately I began, timing myself to be sure I knew how fast I could perform all my moves. When I finished, I had counted 10 seconds; beating my old record of 15. I was panting as I sheathed my sword, exhausted. I didn't realize that someone was watching me before I heard some soft clapping behind me. I immediately turned around and saw it was Ike, clapping for me.
"Well hello Ike. It's a pleasure seeing you here," my tone was laced with anger and sarcasm, I really wasn't in the best mood seeing him.
He stopped clapping and made a slight nod, "Hello… I'm really sorry Marth. But I'm truly not making any excuses… I really am busy… I-"
I cut him off, "This is what you said this whole week! You kept saying 'I'm busy' or 'I have to go work on something' and when I come by your room; I hear you chatting with someone on the phone! So whoever you are calling must be much more important than me if you can't even talk to me when you say you are busy!" I was enraged, 'How could he do this to me?!' With a sigh I turned away from him and walked out of the training room, not wanting to be around him any longer.
Ike's POV~
I felt really guilty, but I truly was busy. I have been preparing a surprise for Marth this whole week so that Valentine's Day would be completely perfect. But I just made him upset and angry, trying to keep the surprise a secret. 'I really hope Marth will forgive me once I show him what I've planned' I thought to myself with a glimmer of hope. I really don't want Marth to break up with me… especially when I'm thinking of proposing to him… Please, just bear with me a little while longer my love…
Marth's POV~
I stormed off into my room, not wanting to talk to Ike at all. He was the problem… my problem… I looked at the clock in my room, it was 8:30 PM; time for me to just chill and possibly fall asleep. But first, I showered; to make sure I didn't smell of sweat from my previous timed workout (and to also not smell like Ike). When I finished showering, I dressed in a plain black hoodie and some grey sweats (with knee-high socks that were colored white). I lay down on my bed, deciding to stare up at the ceiling.
I murmured to myself, "Today is my first night alone, and tomorrow will possibly be my second. Happy Valentine's Eve to me…" With that I fell into a deep slumber, dreaming of last year's Valentine's Day.
*Marth's Dream*
It was a week after I came to SSBB, and it was Valentine's Day. I figured that everyone had a Valentine besides me. So I sighed and went outside and found Ike sitting in a patch of flowers, staring at the sky. 'Ike is alone..? But… I thought he would have a Valentine because he is quite handsome around the ladies…' I thought to myself as I made my way to him, sitting beside him.
I spoke up to get his attention, "Hey Ike… How are you? Where's your Valentine?" He looked at me and I noticed he was holding a bouquet of red roses.
He answered sofly, a smile spreading across his face, "I'm wonderful… And about my Valentine…" He stared into my eyes, "Will you be my Valentine? I know it's crazy and all especially because we are both men… but, when I first saw you, met you, and heard your beautiful voice… I fell hopelessly in love with you… Not the person that was on the outside; the emotionless one, but the sweet and loving one that was hiding. The one that smiled and laughed, the one that cried with joy… that is you… you only Marth. And I know that if you accept, you could cherish in joys once again. And your past could be long forgotten. But I will not argue if you say no. I will just keep you as a close friend of mine." I could feel my face heat up, and I knew I was blushing.
I nodded and said, "Of course I'll be your Valentine! To tell you the truth, I acted as if I hated you when I met you so you wouldn't think I was weak…" He laughed and that and his smile grew bigger. He pulled me in for a hug, and of course I hugged him back.
He whispered in my ear, "Thank you… And one last thing; I love you…"
I murmured back happily, "I love you too."
