Author's Note:
Wow! Long time no see.
This will have more chapters, but they won't be here for quite some time, considering this chapter took forever to write. For me to finally start writing again, I was actually inspired by another writer I'm not sure if it's okay to say any name so I'll just send you a PM.
I do not own Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Only a copy I play every so often.
Guess Who
''Are you serious?'' Exclaimed one of the smashers who were seated on the coach, with a ridiculously large television placed in front of them. His eyes looked like they were glued to the large screen.
''Why yes I am serious, you know since I've already said it to you, for like five times.'' The blond Hylian was sending an annoyed glare towards his winged -inattentive- companion.
Link snatched the remote from the unsuspecting Celestial, and turned of whatever kind of show he was watching.
''Hey! I was watching that!'' Pit tried to reach for the remote, but failed due to his little height problem compared to his close friend. ''Was watching. As in not now, right? By the way, what was it you were watching again?'' A sly grin spread itself upon the narrow face of the Hero. This time it was the brunette's turn to glare. ''It was something about a show that...Okay I'll pay attention to your stupid story.'' Pit's voice became coated in sugar so sweet one would get nauseous by just one taste. ''How was your day mother?''
''Well, Mr. Jackass, besides being with you a certain fella have asked me out through a letter. And how is the non-existing Mrs. Jackass, who will keep being non-existing until the end of the world, or at least our lives?'' Many people at the manor thought the two smashers didn't like each other, but it was quite the opposite. The two of them quickly became so good friends and had been almost impossible for the others to separate the duo.
''I'll have you known that- Wait what now?'' Distracted by the rude remark of his next to dead love-life, Link had to repeat himself for the seventh time.
''Okay, I'm not going to ask why you used the word fella, but who is this mystery girl? It is a girl right? I mean it's not hard to think that a guy would've had his eyes on you.'' Becoming shocked by that comment. Link put full force on his punch that was directed towards the top of the brunette's head, scolding him at the same time. ''Geez you didn't have to damage my precious brain.'' Pit held both of his hands on his head, rubbing it soothingly. ''What brain?'' The Angel punched the blond's bicep playfully. ''Anyway.. What I mean is that, it wouldn't surprise me. I mean, you got a great personality, great hair, superb humor, incredible combat skills, a great gamer-'' The Hero smiled at the compliments he was receiving from his closest friend. It was one of the shining moments of their friendship. ''-And a really, really great ass.'' And there, Pit managed to yet again ruin that moment. Directing some sort of funny or creepy look on his face towards Link, he usually have when trying to pick up girls or even guys. It never worked.
''Stop doing that.'' It was stern command right from the Hero's mouth.
''Doing what?'' Pit rose one eyebrow and pouting his lips, not expecting the palm which was shoved in his face. ''Okay that's enough, Your Creepiness.''
''Okay, but on a serious note, do you know who it is?'' Reverted back to his normal -less demented- self and looked curiously at his friend.
The blond just sighed and stared towards the ground. But that was all Pit needed to know.
''Hey, it's not that bad I mean we could just narrow the list a little, you know for fun.'' Oh yes, the gentle side of Pit, only Link knew of that side of him since they trusted each other at a certain level. And because of that the Hylian knew he could always count on him, even tough people thought it was weird that Link told all of his secrets to Pit of all people.
''Yeah sure why not. Why don't you start?'' His face brightened by just that one sentence.
''Hmm...Ganondorf and Bowser is out of the question, what about Snake? He always grab, pinch or slaps your ass. Can't blame him tough.'' Those last remarks came out with a snicker.
Link shot him an annoyed glare for the second time that afternoon. ''That might be if it were not for the sheer fact that, 1. He is at least ten years older than me. 2. He seems to like Samus more. And finally 3. He's just an ass-grabber.''
''You've raised some valid point, old chap. I would take my hat of for you if I had one at this moment.'' Pit said in a horrible stereotypical British accent. ''Anyway it would be easier to tell if I could see this oh so mysterious letter.''
Link handed Pit the piece of paper, and he snatched it just like the blond had snatched his TV-remote moments ago.
''Hmm Hmm.'' Link was looking at his friend nervously. Most of the inhabits-correction all of them except Link thought Pit was an idiot, but Link knew he actually had an intelligent that even rivaled the holder of the Triforce of Wisdom, Zelda.
He read the note out loud -without warning. Luckily they were alone since most of the smashers were either in the cafeteria, the other living room, outside or just thought of the duo as downright plain annoying and avoided them.
''To Link. You don't know who I am, but you know my name. I have met you almost every day since the day we met. Even though we talk, laugh or spend time with each other, I have yet to have you all by myself. One day in the future if you accept, I will be there for you, protect you and love you. The next note is with the one who is most in the way. The winged one, who stand closest to you.
That's all that stands. Well wasn't that cute. And aww, he, she or it loves you. Well I guess we don't have any other choice but to, find the next clue! For you, my friend!'' Pit made an exaggerated pose, with his index finger pointed at Link.
''Oh Pit. I'm glad I had the chance to know you as I do. To most people you are stupid, obnoxious, irresponsible, impossible to talk to about personal matters, but to me you're the exact opposite of that, a true friend...Well most of the time.''
''So who do you think he or she meant? You know the winged one who stands you the closest?'' Link blinked. He wasn't sure if the Angel was joking or not, but his question was soon answered.
''It could be Meta Knight he's got wings, or Charizard, or, or what about Falco? He technically have wings, right?'' The Blond stared at Pit like he was crazy, and he just might be that. ''Wait a minute. The one who stands you closest. I thought I was your best friend?'' That was it. Link had to do something to make him at least understand how stupid he sounded, so he did the first thing that crossed his mind.
Smack!
''Ouch! What was that for?'' Pit rubbed the back of his newly hit head.
''What do you think?'' Pit just responded with a light glare.''Can you quit the joking for a second? And by the way the winged one, it's you stupid.''
''I knew that. Stupid.'' The last word came out in a quiet whisper.
Link chose to ignore Pit's immaturity, and instead focus on their little mystery. ''So...Shall we go?''
''Huh? Go where?'' Pit blinked.
The Hylian just groaned, rubbing his temples. ''I don't have time nor patience for this. Maybe I'll just ask Red.''
Link was up and ready to go, but a firm grip on his arm stopped him from taking another step.
''Hold it right there, pretty boy.'' Link just glared. ''Red? What makes him more special than me? Yes we do hang out with him, but c'mon you know how little he talks compared to me.''
''Exactly.'' The 'pretty boy' tried to get his wrist out of the Celestial's grip, but to no use. The Angel was much stronger than most people would've thought at first sight.
''Fine. I will try to act as a normal person-I mean'' Pit cleared his throat and put on a puppy-face. ''Angel. So please my bestes friend in the whole wide world'' He grabbed the front of Link's shirt. ''Let me accompany you on your way to true love.''
Link blinked. Once. Twice. He stared at Pit as if he had sprouted another head. ''What the hell was that? Wait I don't want to know.'' Pit squeezed him, hard. ''O-okay you can come. Just don't crush me.''
The Hylian repeated his question. ''So...Shall we go?''
He looked at the brunette. Looking for any sign of joking or stupidity.
''Okay. Let's go to my bedroom.''
''Huh. I guess he's finally serious now.'' Link inwardly smiled.

An unmade bed, a few games spread out on the floor, a slightly dirty plate on the table. It was surprisingly clean to the one who had been given the title of the mansion's goof. -A title that used to belong to a certain red-headed smasher named Roy, before his departure.
''Now all we have to do is to find this, oh so mysterious note.'' Pit exclaimed in a little too much excitement. Maybe he had a faint idea of who the secret admirer were.
Link just hmm'd the melody of The Song of Storms faintly, while lightly tapping his chin.
''Whoa! Watch it there Mr. Hero of Time. I don't want it raining in my room.'' Pit smiled playfully, and Link returned the gesture with a small laugh at the end. Pit joined in shortly after.
''He he. Okay enough joking. Let's start our little hunt.'' Link clasped his hands, looking if he was ready to turn the temporary home of his friend, upside-down.
After a minute or five they finally found the note. It was on the night-stand the whole time. Both of them thought that at least they had gotten a good laugh out of it. Despite how frustrating and stupid it was.
''Okaay. That was kind of embarrassing. Funny, but embarrassing.'' Pit took the folded note before the blond had any chance to reach it at all. ''Let's see. Hmm.''
''It says'' The Angel cleared his throat one time too many. ''Dear goofball. This letter is for Link not you...Well that wasn't nice of him. Calling you goofball. Isn't he supposed to try and, you know, seduce you. Wait a minute. He called me a goofball! Who does he think he is? Calling me, me a goofball.'' Pit poked his chest to emphasize the person -himself- he was talking about.''How degrading.''
Link snatched the paper out of his hand, just like he did with the TV-remote earlier that same day.
Link unfolded the note and began reading. ''Dear Link. I like you, as in I want to hold you and shower you in my affection. If you want to give me a chance, meet me on the roof of the mansion at 6 pm.'' A blush was slowly, but steadily spreading on the bridge of his nose and cheeks. Unfortunately for him a certain 'goofball' saw it, and wanted to make the Hylian blush to intensify.
''Well that was blunt. You know, I think I have a pretty good idea of who this is.'' Ironically enough the 'Angel' gave a devilish smirk.''I think it is-'' He whispered the name in the long Hylian ear. And at the time Pit straightened up to look at Link's face. The blush had spread to the tip of his pointed ear and most of his face.
''Oh dear Naryu. This is going to be great.'' Link said as he rubbed his bright red cheeks.
=X=X=X=X=
They were both back in the coach that they were sitting in before. Almost everything looked normal. Almost being the keyword.
''Oh Din. Oh Din. What should I do? What should I do? What should I do? Please you've got to help me...Pitto.'' Pit knew that when Link used that name, he was really counting on him to help him.
''Well if you want to know my opinion'' He paused and looked into Link eyes. They were pleading for an answer. '' I think you should give it a chance.'' He smiled, genuinely, like the Angel he was. ''You won't regret that you at least tried. I mean I am sure that-''
But before Pit could finish his sentence they were interrupted by Peach, Zelda, Samus, Snake, Sheik, Ike and Marth.
A cheerful greeting was thrown their way by the two Princesses and a nod from the loyal protector of Hyrule's Princess, Sheik. Snake tried to grab for Link's ass and obviously succeeded because a high-pitched 'eep' was heard from the Hero. A roll of the eyes and two glares was sent by the three others. All the while Pit just snickered at the scene.
Link's face became almost as red as Mario's cap because of the second oldest ones action. Something was heard coming from Link's mouth that sounded something like 'Perverted old ass-grabber.'
Seeing that little scene reminded Pit about the current little love story Link was caught up in.
''Don't worry about it. I don't think he's going to confess in front of everyone or something.'' Pit whispered in the pointy ear buried in tresses of golden hair.
He had temporarily forgotten about the notes. That time around his face became redder than Mario's cap, the blush also reach to the tip of his ears. ''He's here. Right in front of me. He looks so calm, and relaxed. Acting like normal. I never thought it would actually be him.'' He blinked and put his hands up, so they covered most of his blush. ''Could Pit be right?'' That one question echoed in his head through the entire conversation.

When the clock hit 'dinged' the fourth time, all of the girls decided to retire to the karaoke room, where most of the smashers were. It was Friday after all.
The six males that were left behind started having their own little chat about today's matches.
''I totally destroyed Diddy Kong in that last match.'' Snake gloated.
''I remember he lost because of his Rocketbarrel Pack exploded before he could get back to the stage.'' Marth commented in a-matter-of-fact way.
Snake was about to protest but Ike interrupted him. ''You were lucky there, if that didn't happen you would have definitely lost, to a chimpanzee. I guess everyone thought the funniest part, besides the explosion not caused by you, was all that trouble you had with those banana peels.'' A deep chuckle came from the Mercenary.
''Oh shut up Greil. You can't say anything, since you got your ass kicked when you fought Kirby, who is a pink blob with stubby little arms and legs.''
Ike and Snake shared a friendship which was almost a parallel to Link and Pit's. It, of course did include silly arguments and snarky comments towards each others.
''In my defense he surprised me with his copying move. How should I have known he could use Eruption?'' The tall bluenette raised his hands up defensively. ''Don't you have something to say Pit? He has copied you too.''
The angel and the Hylian diverted their attention from the television -which was sending recordings from this weeks matches- and looked at their companions. Both managed to act to a certain degree normal.
''Yeah he did, but I was prepared and took it like a professional. Unlike you newbie.'' The Celestial practically glowed from his own ego.
''Heh! I remembered that you became furious at Kirby chasing him yelling ''Give me back my crown you pink blob thief?'' or something like that. I wouldn't say that is professional.'' Smiling mischievously Link took a part in the conversation ignoring the butterflies in his stomach. ''Wait you're new too, which would make you both newbies.''
''Oh shut it Blondie.'' Punching his arm, to so grab it. ''Anyway we got things to do. Come on.'' The Angel started pulling the Hylian out of the couch.
''Where are you guys going?'' Snake asked with a cocked eyebrow.
''To the room where the stuff happens...You know The Room.'' Giving a goofy grin the Celestial started to use his wings to carry his blond friend. Soon they were both in the air.
''Whoa!'' Link exclaimed. He was used to and at the same time not used to Pit's habit of having the need to lift him off the ground almost every time the General wanted him all for himself.
''Bye, see ya in a couple of hours.'' Link growled out loud, but still kept his voice low enough so that the Angel was the only one to hear. And before another word was said they were out of sight.
''Heh! Well would you look at that.'' Snake gave a mischievous smirk, and folded his arms.
=X=X=X=X=
It was nearing six o'clock, and the two archers were on the roof of the mansion just as planned.
''Okay everything is going to be fine. You won't be disturbed. I will personally take care of that. So relax Link, just relax.'' Pit's hands were shaking badly.
''It kind of seems like you're the one who needs to relax. What's wrong?'' Link put a comforting hand on the shaking Angel's shoulder.
''No it's nothing.'' The Hero gave a don't-lie-now kind of look. ''It's just that. When making sure that no one will disturb. I am going to volunteer to sing. It is Friday after all. Well singing is not the problem, but you know the girls will be singing tonight, and you know how incredible they are. I just hope people won't think I am you know, 'sucky' compared to them. Well actually any of them. Buut I guess I'm not the one to be nervous tonight. So. Good luck on your man-date then.'' The General said man a little louder than the other words. But before Link could answer, Pit had lifted off.
The blond teen took a deep breath. ''Okay. No backing out. Dear Farore! I am shaking. Triforce of Courage my ass, it doesn't help at all. I'm scared out of my wits. Breath Link, just breath. If you can take down King Dodongo at the age of nine, you can try a relationship with a man.'' His knees began to buckle. ''Oh for the love of Naryu I can't even stand up right.''
He watched outwards to the sea. The sun had begun to set, so it gave him a beautiful view. There was a thick forest far to the left, some cliffs and roads that leaded to the city to the right and a mountain behind the mansion. The bench he sat on was to the side of some kind of tiny house. It was there you had to come from if you wanted to come to the roof- unless you had wings or something like that.
Link was so caught up in how conveniently the mansion was placed, that he didn't hear the footsteps coming from behind.
It wasn't until he heard a very familiar voice. ''Hi there. What is a cutie like you doing all alone here?''
The Hylian couldn't do anything to prevent the blush from spreading. But he still smiled.
''It was him. Pit was right.''
Link looked up, or at least tried, but there were warm hands covering his eyes.
The incredible sexy voice -Link had just noticed how much- said right next to a blushing ear.
''Guess who.''
Author's Note:
Yay! Something I actually find decent.(From my work. Not anyone else, they're awesome. You know who you are.)
I just love friendship. With the power of friendship you can overcome anything. Except in games, because we all screw each other over from getting lives, weapons and power-ups.
This I will finish. No matter how difficult or time consuming it will be. It's probably will be about four chapters.
Now I will either start or work on the next chapter these following days/weeks/months or play Brawl/Zelda.
Oh yeah. Who do you think it is? It should be obvious. (If you know me.)
