Author's Notes- You know, people loved my story "Feelings in the Store". I thought that maybe I should make a sequel to it. Eventually, I thought 'sure! Why not?' This is what I came up with. (I suggest reading "Feelings in the Store" first, or you might be confused.
Our Secret Crush
1. That Was Close
A four-way battle takes place in the smash mansion; Jigglypuff vs. Pit vs. Meta Knight vs. Ness. Ness has already been launched off the course by Jigglypuff, who rammed into him as she rolled at top speed. Jigglypuff now watches as Meta Knight sword fights Pit. She starts to get dreamy, wishing that one day, when she is held captive, that Meta Knight would save her. Dreaming in the middle of a battle is a bad idea.
A Gooey Bomb is tossed at Meta Knight, but Meta Knight dodges it. It hits Jigglypuff, sticking to her ear. She screams and starts to run in circles. Meta Knight jumps over Pit and kicks him. Pit is launched past Jigglypuff, and the Gooey Bomb attaches to his arm. He lands, stands, and before he has time to take one step, the bomb blows up. "Pit; Defeated!" It is just Meta Knight and Jigglypuff.
Jigglypuff can't push herself to defeat Meta Knight. The only fighter she has never been able to defeat is Meta Knight, and not because he is a good fighter. "You can win. I don't care."
"Well you have to at least make it look like you tried." Meta Knight is concerned about Jigglypuff's reputation. He suddenly remembers what happened about a week ago in the store. This is the first battle he has had with Jigglypuff since then. How could he beat Jigglypuff remembering that?
To their convenience, a Smart Bomb falls out of the sky. Both Jigglypuff and Meta Knight go for it at the same time. Meta Knight trips. His sword hits the bomb. The bomb explodes. "GAME!" Both Meta Knight and Jigglypuff were caught in the explosion. The only thing left to reveal is who won.
The door to the stage portal opens. Both Meta Knight and Jigglypuff walk out. Immediately, Ike runs up. "Meta Knight, did you purposely fall onto the bomb?"
Meta Knight shakes his head. "Why?"
"You won't believe this, but you won! I can't tell if it was just luck, or if that was the best plan ever." Ike walks off after that.
"HUH. What do you know? I won." Meta Knight can't believe he won either, probably even more than Ike.
"That was pretty good. I'm glad you won." Jigglypuff didn't care who won, as long as she was still friends with the knight in the end.
"You fought pretty well yourself Jigglypuff." Meta Knight really feels that well. Jigglypuff was an excellent fighter. The only thing that puzzles Meta Knight was the fact that Jigglypuff could never beat him. That is still a mystery to him.
"Lunchtime! Leave your weapons in your rooms and grab your appetites." Nobody knows why, but Master Hand is always so cheery when lunchtime comes around. He doesn't have a mouth, as far as anyone knew.
"I heard today they were serving Chicken Pot Pie." Jigglypuff is pretty cheery about lunchtime too, but for a different reason.
"I am a little famished from my three battles this morning." Meta Knight admits his hunger.
"Meta Knight, it is only twelve o'clock, and you've already had three battles today?" Jigglypuff is impressed. "Gees. You're going to hurt yourself. Take a break."
Meta Knight can't help but chuckle.
Things are usual in the lunchroom. The smashers have little groups that they sit with. To Jigglypuff's liking, her table is just across from Meta Knight's table. She has the perfect view of the knight.
"I don't get it!" Zero Suit Samus smashes her pie with her fork, causing some to splat out onto Jigglypuff. "I can't beat that smelly, ugly speeder!"
"Calm down Samus. You'll beat Captain Falcon eventually." Zelda tries to reassure Samus, before she has a mental breakdown.
The reassuring attempt didn't work so well. "I still don't understand why whenever I have a battle with him and others, he always goes for me first. What do you think Jigglypuff?" Samus asks the pink Pokémon.
"Yes I'll marry you." Jigglypuff is of course in another world.
"Wait what?!" Samus didn't quite get the answer she expected. "NO! Wake up!"
"I'm awake!" Jigglypuff is brought into reality.
"Jigglypuff, I said nothing about marriage."
"Did I say something about marriage?"
"You said you'd marry me, so yes."
"What, no! Sorry. I'm off in another world."
Peach takes interest in this 'other world'. "Where'd you go?"
Jigglypuff looks at Peach with a questioning face. "I didn't go anywhere."
"You said you were in another world."
"Peach, I meant I was lost in thought."
"How can you be lost in thoughts? Those only exist in your brain."
"OK, what I meant was I wasn't paying attention to you three. I was thinking hard."
"OH." Now Peach understands. "What was so important that you shut us out?"
Jigglypuff remains quiet. She'd rather not answer that one.
"From the looks of it, I'd say Jigglypuff has a crush." Samus smirks, knowing what love looks like.
"What, no. That's silly." Jigglypuff denies it.
Zelda, Peach, and Samus look in the direction Jigglypuff was staring, trying to find Jigglypuff's crush.
"OH come on!"
A table consisting of five swordsmen sits across from the girls table. Ike, Marth, Pit, Link, and of course, Meta Knight, sits at the table.
"I can't believe Meta Knight beat you Pit, after all your training." Link laughs at Pit's failure.
"All that training just to get your bum kicked. That's hilarious." Ike joins the laughter.
"Ha. Ha. Very funny guys." Pit isn't amused. Sarcasm doesn't work as well here as it would in other rooms of the mansion.
"Actually, Jigglypuff was the one with the bomb. Meta Knight just happened to kick Pit in the direction of Jigglypuff." Marth isn't so sure it was entirely Meta Knight's fault that Pit lost.
"So it was Meta Knight's fault that Pit lost." Ike argues.
"You didn't mean for the bomb to stick to Pit, did you Meta Knight?" Marth asks the Star Warrior.
Meta Knight is lost in his own little world. He subconsciously puts chick squares in the shape of a 'J'.
"YO! Meta Knight!" Ike screams.
Meta Knight suddenly bashes his fork, causing it to soar in the air. "What!" Ike's scream was startling. Link and Pit watch the fork.
"Dude, you do know that you put your chicken in the shape of a 'J', don't you?" Ike questions.
"I did?" Meta Knight looks at his plate. Ike is right "OH. I did. That's odd." He brushes the chicken squares into the rest of the pie. He can still see them. Now they are shaped like a 'P'.
"Meta Knight, are you ok?" Ike asks.
The fork finally lands… in Ike's hair. The eating part of the fork disappears in Ike's hair. Meta Knight notices the fork. "I'm fine. The question is, are you ok?"
The other three men laugh hysterically. Ike touches his head and pulls out the fork. Meta Knight starts to laugh. Ike gives the fork back to Meta Knight and pouts for being laughed at.
After Marth stops laughing, he thinks. "Hang on. Meta Knight, why did you put the chicken in a 'J' shape?"
Meta Knight only shrugs. He didn't know he was doing it until Ike pointed it out.
"Honestly, you have been acting weird since that shopping trip you had a week ago. I don't know much about it, but it seems to have done something to you."
Meta Knight tries to think of a way to throw him off subject without causing suspicion. He says the first thing that popped into his mind; "Besides it being the first shopping trip I've taken in years, I don't think it had an effect on me." Meta Knight hopes Ike will start rambling about his shopping trips. Does Ike ever go shopping?
"Wait a minute; I see what's going on." Link thinks he knows what his small blue friend in pondering.
"You do?" Meta Knight tries his hardest not to sound fearful. He knows what he is thinking; if the guys knew what he was thinking, then that is a different story.
"You have your eye on Samus, don't you?" Link figured out the mystery, or at least he thinks he did.
'Really? That's your conclusion?' Meta Knight thinks to himself.
"He is silent! That's it!" Ike is just as dumb as Link.
"Hey, let's all stare at Samus to see if she likes Meta Knight back." That was the most stupid suggestion Meta Knight has ever heard Marth give.
All four human swordsmen turn towards the women and stare. The women are staring right back at them. All seven scream. The men scream because the girls are staring at them. The women scream because the guys just turned towards them, and saw that they were staring at them. Only Jigglypuff and Meta Knight are silent from the two tables. Samus's reaction after about a minute of screaming; punch Ike in the face. Ike is out cold.
All other smashers stare at the two tables. Silence. Jigglypuff and Meta knight start to stare at each other. Jigglypuff's cheeks turn a rosy red. Meta Knight's do the same, but nobody can see what happens under his mask.
Jigglypuff starts to laugh. Meta Knight thinks for a moment about what just happened and starts to laugh too. The entire horde of smashers starts to laugh, except for Ike, who is out cold.
After lunch, Meta Knight goes straight to his room. He locks the door, sits down against the door, and says, "That was close."
Author's Notes- How was that? Interesting? Humorous? Want more? Of course you do. That is why I'm telling you this isn't done. Sequels are almost always longer than the first story. This story will have chapters. TEE HEE.
