Hey there, guys! I'm sorry I didn't upload this chapter in the morning... I got caught up in an important group meeting for school, went to class, and then played Super Smash Bros. for an hour or so. Yeah, my college has a room where people can rent out video game systems & games so they can play by themselves, with friends, or with strangers. I played against two guys, and I totally kicked their ass! I know bragging isn't nice, but I can't help it! Sorry not sorry. :)

Anyways, back to the oneshot. Ike and Samus are probably going to be somewhat OOC. It's not set in an AU, but I think they're a little OOC. I apologize if that bothers anyone.

I own absolutely nothing.

Anyways, please read & enjoy! :D

"What the hell, Ike?!"

The man in question took a huge step back with wide eyes. He would've been lying if he said that he didn't enjoy the impromptu kiss between him and Samus; he'd wanted to kiss her ever since they met. That being said, he hadn't expected it to be so sudden, nor did he expect Samus to shriek at him right after it occurred.

"Uh…" was all that came from his throat.

"Remember what I said when you tried to kiss me?" added Samus. "I just wanted us to stay friends."

Ike blinked. How could he forget that conversation? He had tried to kiss Samus on the lips, only to have her back away, shocked. She hadn't gotten angry, though she had gotten quite flustered at his actions. She told him in a kind (yet awkward) manner that while she did care deeply for him, she just didn't have any romantic feelings for him.

"I understand," Ike had told her. "I won't try something like that again."

Well, so much for that.

"I… I'm sorry?" said Ike. He meant it to sound like a statement, but how he raised his words at the end made it come out like a question.

Samus raised her right eyebrow. "You don't mean it, do you?"

"N-No, I do! I… I don't know what the hell came over me," confessed Ike.

"I'll tell you- you let your emotions control you, not your brain," said Samus in a sarcastic voice.

Ike scrubbed his hands over his face. He didn't know what else to do, so he decided to tell the blonde-haired woman everything.

"I've never stopped having feelings for you, Samus. I will always care about you. I would love for you to be with me, but I won't force you to be with me. If you still don't like me this way, I will respect your wishes. And I truly mean it this time; I won't do anything that makes you uncomfortable."

"Oh, Ike… I do want to be with you. I only turned you down last time because I didn't think I deserve you. But… but now I know that I do…" Samus suddenly trailed off, unsure of what else to say.

Ike let out a big sigh. "Oh my God, really?! Ha ha! This is the best day of my life!"

Before Samus could respond, she was suddenly lifted up in the air by the blue-haired swordsman. She laughed at his antics and didn't bother trying to get out of his arms. She simply kissed his lips and embraced him tight.

"I'm sorry for lying to you, and for making you wait," she mumbled into his chest.

"Don't apologize," replied Ike. "Waiting for you was worth it. I was half expecting you to beat the crap out of me for kissing you."

"If I didn't have feelings for you, you'd already be on the floor begging for mercy. So consider yourself lucky that I do like you a lot."

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

Review Responses:

EchoMoonHuntress: That had to be one of my favourite chapters to write in all of the oneshot songfic collections I've done. I laughed my ass off when I wrote it, so I'm glad to hear that I made you laugh... and in class, no less! All I can say is don't underestimate me (not that I thought you ever did, just to be clear). Glad you enjoyed the first oneshot! :)

Please review, and don't forget to stay tuned for chapter 3! :D
