Hello, everyone! So, after the success of my ten oneshot songfic collection on Shulk & Female Robin, I decided to do another collection with the couple Dark Pit x Lucina. I know this pairing has been done quite a bit, but I just couldn't ignore it any longer! The songs in this collection will be different from my previous collection, though the aritists/bands may or may not be the same. Each songfic will be exactly 500 words long, barring author's notes.

The song that inspired this oneshot is Fool Like Me by Cobra Starship (feat. Plasticines). I'm only telling you because it won't say so until I add chapter two.

Now onto this oneshot. I apologize if Lucina and Dark Pit are slightly OOC. I tried not to make them OOC, but I apologize ahead of time if you feel as though they're OOC.

In case you're curious, the title of this is actually a quote from French author Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette. So yes, I didn't come up with it, but I think it's a cool title regardless.

I own absolutely nothing.

Anyways, please read & enjoy! :D

"I thought you knew better, Lucina."

The woman in question gave Chrom a sideways glance. "Father, I thought we already went over this."

"I know, but that doesn't make me feel better."

Gods, why won't he accept it? I honestly thought we were past this, thought Lucina, suddenly frustrated. Ever since she and Dark Pit started dating two months ago, her father would question their relationship whenever he came to visit the Smash Mansion. Unfortunately for Lucina, today had proved to be no exception.

"I care about him greatly," said Lucina with a newfound edge in her voice. "He's not as horrible as you think."

Chrom raised his eyebrows, unconvinced. "You know I only want you to be happy."

"But I am happy! Why can't you see it?! Look, if you're going to keep talking like this, I don't want to hear it."

Lucina promptly stormed out of the training room before Chrom could stop her. She stomped into her dorm, set Falchion to the side, and plopped onto her bed. She was about to burst into tears when someone knocked on her door.

"Leave me alone!"

"It's me."

Lucina calmed down in an instant when she heard that familiar voice. She took a deep breath before responding.

"S-Sorry. Come in."

Dark Pit entered her room and sat beside her. He carefully pushed some of her hair away from her face. His soft touch made her giggle.

"Stop, that tickles," she said in between her laughter.

"At least I'm making you laugh," replied Dark Pit. "I heard what Chrom said."

"Please don't let what he said get to you," begged Lucina. "I'm so happy being with you. Please- don't ever doubt that."

Dark Pit nodded. "Your father probably told you more than once to stay away from guys like me."

"Well, I don't listen to him all the time. If I did, I wouldn't be with you. Father's just going to have to accept our relationship eventually."

"The only question is when that'll happen."

"Ugh, I know. It's annoying."

Smirking, Dark Pit kissed her temple. Lucina giggled again, though it stopped when the couple shared a gentle kiss.

Chrom suddenly opened the door, apologetic speech in mind. But when he saw his daughter locking lips with Dark Pit, he cleared his throat loudly to get her attention.

The couple broke apart quickly, and Lucina gave her father a death stare. Dark Pit, on the other hand, looked apathetic.

"Don't give me that look," he stated in a flat voice. "It's not the first time we've kissed."

"Right, said Chrom. "Look: I know I said I'd stop giving you two a hard time about your relationship. Just understand that doing so is going to take some time. So please be patient with me, and I promise I will come to accept you two as a couple. Am I clear?"

"Yes."

Lucina nodded. "Thank you, Father."

"Oh, and one more thing: when I'm visiting, you two are to NOT BE ALONE."

"FATHER!"

There ya go! I hope you all enjoyed it. :)

Please review, and don't forget to stay tuned for chapter 2! :D
