Super Smash Bros: The Love of I

Chapter III: Day I

Link awoke with a start. Blinking the groggyness from his eyes, he sat up. Standing in the doorway was Samus. She had her Varia suit on. In one hand was her helmet, and in the other was a bowl of what smelled like chicken noodle soup.

"G'morning, sleepy-head. Sleep well?" she asked. Link blinked, he was feeling a little slow this day so it took some time for him to register what she had said.

"Huh? Oh, yes I sleeped well. But I have this splitting headache..." He answered back.

"One second, I'll get an asprin." Samus informed, placing her helmet on his dresser and the soup on a table next to his bed-side.

To this day, Samus still doesn't know how she missed them, but as she made her way towards the table where a still very frightened Doc. Mario had brought the medical surplus needed to treat Link, she tripped on his boots.

"Whoa!" She exclaimed. Link who was busy trying to eat his soup heard Samus' surprised shout, but before he could react, she fell right on top of him. Her lips met his, causing both to go wide eyed. But before either of them had time to blush, Link felt extreme heat coarse his side, his soup was spilled over his sheets.

"GAH!" he yelped. Samus couldn't help but wonder how he could jump that far up while laying down. A little further and he would have been able to sink his fingers into the roof. She also took notice of the smoke coming off his back as he fell to the floor.

"Oh sweet Nayru!" he exclaimed from his position on the floor as he tried to cool his burning bottom as best as he could.

Too worried about cooling his burn, he forgot about the flustered Samus who sat there on his bed, both cheeks blushing furiously red as she touched her lips. Why did she feel this warm sensation come over her when their lips met? She decided to ponder this later.

"Sorry Link, I tripped on your boots..." She apologized.

"No no, it's fine Samus, ow. Hehe, talk about your wake-up call!" He stated sarcastically, making her laugh. With his side burning, he forgot about the awkward sitiuation from earlier. Much to Samus' relief. She didn't want to dwell on it.

"Well, the week has barely started and already something happens. At least your not killing yourself with all the matches you had to fight." She muttered, Link heard her though.

"Don't remind me, please, that is the last thing I want to think on..." He remarked.

Samus stood up from Link's bed and finished aquiring his asprin. She took the time to notice how welcoming Link's dorm really was. Pictures of his past lined the walls. A few portraits of his friends from one of his quests against an evil 'soul consuming demon-sword'. Samus frowned at the one of a british lady with a very, very, revealing red suit holding a whip/sword in her hands. The woman had short white hair, icy blue eyes, a voluptious figure, and a smug look on her face as she sat in a chair. Behind her was Link with a frightened look on his face as he eyed the mysterious woman cautisouly.

"Uh, Link? Who's that?" Samus asked, pointing to the portrait.

Link looked up and cringed visibly at the image. He obviously didn't want to talk about it.

"That...is the only person I find scarier than Ganondorf. Isabella Valentine, most call her Ivy." Link explained.

"What is so scary about her then, and why if she scares you are you in the picture?" Samus asked, the whole thing sounded stupid to her...Link would whole-heartidly agree with her.

"Well, she is...um...an aquiantince. I traveled with her for awhile when that demon sword attacked Hyrule a few years ago. Take my word for it, that is one insane woman. She has the sickest sense of humor I have ever seen, worse than Ganondorf!" He stated. Samus found herself laughing at this.

"That bad, huh?" She asked, still laughing. Link nodded.

"It's not funny! What she did to me made me never ever want to go back there again! Especially if she is still looking for me!" He exclaimed, a heavy blush on his face.

"Looking for you? Why is she? What did she do?" Samus asked, confused.

"Uh, lets just say that she...um...Oh goddesses, help me...She l...li...Damn it, I can't say it." Link seemed traumatized by something. Obviously his tongue had some lock on a specific word that connected to the woman's image.

"She what? What?" Samus asked, sounding impatient. She really wanted to know why this Ivy affected Link so much.

Link shuddered.

"She...Likes...me...Whew..." He said with a sigh. Samus frowned.

"That's it? She liked you?" She asked sounding confused.

"Samus; when Ivy likes something, she takes it...She likes me. She tried to take me, had it not been for some of my other friends there, I wouldn't be standing here in front of you. I would still be running for dear life screaming like a ReDead with a crazed dominatrix on my tail trying to catch me. It would look like some cucco chasing game...As for what she did to me, well, somethings are better left unsaid." He explained.

Samus stood there as the images of that voluptious woman chasing Link clear across the world registered in her head and the possiblities of what incident traumatized Link. She suddenly was on the ground laughing and holding her stomach. Link grimaced at the situation.

*Later that day*

Link sat in his bed, reading some of his old books. Occasionally taking a sip of his orange juice that was apparently good for a cold, Link still couldn't figure how that worked. He guessed it was the vitamins in it.

Samus had left already, tears streaking down her face as she couldn't stop laughing from earlier. She had some matches to attend to, her opponet: Snake.

Speaking of the devil, the experienced spy walked into Link's room with a frown on his face.

"Huh? Oh, hello Snake. How did your match go?" Link asked, keeping his formal tone.

"Eh, about normal against Samus. I lossed." He said with an amused chuckle. That elf sure did know how to make people feel better, in a non-sensual way. (A/N: You perverts. You thought about it didn't you!)

"I assume this is still about how you made that mistake the first time you met her?" Link asked, he remembered that day all to well. In all honesty, it was entertaining.

"I guess. Hell, how was I supposed to know she wasn't a man? I wish she would just drop it." Snake answered exasperatedly.

"Samus is not one to be disrespected, Snake. Everyone else made the same mistake except me. Zelda knew as well. That was a blow to her pride and she holds a grudge against everyone who called her a man. Especially Captain Falcon." Link said with an amused chuckle.

"Eh, whatever. She told me to come by and tell you she was going to be late. She has something else she needs to take care of. So I thought I'd drop by and say hello to the King." Snake stated with a shrug.

"I see. She had to speak with Doctor Mario on some perscription for my illness." Link muttered.

"So, when do you plan on telling her?" Snake asked suddenly causing Link to blink.

"I beg your Pardon?" Link asked confused. (A/N: You see where this is headed? XD)

"I heard from a reliable source that you have the hots for Samus Aran." Snake answered.

"What makes your source think that? As far as I know, Samus and I are just good friends." Link defended making Snake chuckle.

"Denial is the first step in this mushy stuff you people call love. Listen; sooner or later, you'll see what I mean. I did catch you staring at her a week before. Don't deny it!" Snake said with a victorious grin. Link's jaw hit the floor and he let out an exasperated gasp.

"What in Din's name are you talking about? Are you stalking me?" Link asked accusingly. Snake laughed.

"No, I just so happened to look at you at the time. Deny it all you want Linky, but I know that you like Samus more than you think so." The spy stated.

"I have no idea what you speak of." Link stated, sounding calm and unconcerned with the subject.

"That blush on your face says other wise." Snake stated with a huge grin. Link felt like choking himself.

"I'll leave you alone now. But remember what I said, take the chance kid, because you'll never find another woman like her ahain. Trust me, I've looked." Snake advised.

"I'm sure." Link grimaced at the spy as said spy left with a kick in his step.

'Apparently I let some big cat out of the bag.' Snake thought as he left, chuckling quietly.

Samus in her zero suit walked into the infirmary of the mansion on her way to see Doc. Mario about Link's prescription. She heard voices and assumed it was just a few other smashers getting checked up, but the conversation called for her to stop and listen.

"...I was in Link's dorm and I did tell him. He didn't take it, you know how it all starts out with denial. Didn't Samus deny it at first as well?" That voice was Snake's. Samus leaned against the wall and listened in on the conversation.

"Yes, She-a did-a deny it-a all. But I'm-a not going-a to go through-a that again." Doc. Mario answered.

"Go through what?" Snake asked. Apparently he didn't know about Samus's warning.

"Well, she-a told me-a that-a she would-a bury me-a if I-a said-a something like-a that again. So I-a dropped it." Doc. Mario answered. Samus chuckled quietly.

"Pfft. If we let up, those two wont know their own feelings for each other. Your gonna have to swallow your fears Doc and take things up a notch." Snake stated.

"Snake, this is-a Samus we're-a talking about-a!" Doc Mario argued.

'So those two are in on this together? Oh, they are so dead.' Samus thought, taking out her paralyzer and activating whip-form. 'Time for a little lesson, boys.' She added.

She walked into the room and locked the door behind her. She turned around to see a surprised looking Snake and a terrified looking Doc Mario.

"Oh hey Samus. We were just talking about-" He didn't get much further as Samus suddenly leaped at him like a crazed lioness on the hunt.

Samus walked along the hallways on the way to Link's dorm with a smile on her face. She felt alot better, having released all her previous stress on the two imbeciles in the infirmary for Princess Peach to deal with. She never knew them to beg for mercy. It amused her in more ways than one.

What was even more amusing was how it was Pit who found them all.

She knocked on Link's door and waited for him to answer her. But he didn't respond.

"Hey Link? You alright in there?" she called. Still no response. Samus checked the door and it was unlocked. She opened the door and sighed in relief when she saw 'sleepy-head' asleep with a book in his hands. Glancing at the clock which read 12:20am, Samus walked up to Link's form and removed the book.

Placing said book away on his bookshelf, Samus closed his curtains and switched off the lights. As she left Link's medicine on his night table, she heard him mumble something in his sleep. Curious, Samus leaned in to listen closer.

"...Samus...love you...No Ivy, I don't want to wear the pink hat..." Link mumbled.

Samus just sat there, a shocked look on her face. The first part of the sentence was the only thing she heard. Link said something in his sleep that had to do with love and her. Not knowing how that word connected with her, she decided to shake it off and get some sleep.

Hopefully day two would not be so full of unexpected events.

A/N: "No Ivy, I don't want to wear the pink hat..."

...

Ooookaaaaay, I have to admit, that one was random. But this is a humor fiction, is it not? And humor tends to be deprived out of the ordininary. Please tell me you liked this and that I got the character's right! In other words, R&R!
