I own nothing. I only own the plot and a laptop to type this.
After a while, I'm back on this story! Sorry, I had writer's block, but now I'm motivated~! :D Hope you enjoy!
o.o.o.o.o
The sun rises.
"Ike, it's morning!" I exclaim.
Ike smiles. "We'd better get to breakfast," he says, standing up.
I get off of the bed.
We walk to the dining room.
A few Smashers are already eating. The others must be still asleep.
"Hey, wanna sit next to me?" Ike asks.
I blush and smile. "Sure!" I say. I take a seat.
Ike sits down next to me.
"So, do you know anyone in this mansion?" I ask.
"Well, I know you," Ike starts.
I blush faintly.
"Marth, Pit, and Link," Ike says.
"Who are Pit and Marth?" I ask.
Ike points at the angel. "That's Pit," he points at a swordsman with blue hair, "and that's Marth."
Pit notices and waves at us with a smile.
I smile softly and wave back.
Ike chuckles. "Pit's very friendly and enthusiastic," he says.
I smile wider.
"Zelda!"
I turn my head to see Link sit down next to me.
"Morning, Zelda," he says, pecking my cheek.
"Morning Link," I say.
That's weird. I'm not blushing or feeling happy or anything…
Ike stands up. "I think I should leave you two alone…" he says.
"No!" I exclaim.
Link and Ike both stare at me.
"I-It's alright! Y-You can s-stay!" I stutter nervously.
"Alright then!" Ike says, sitting back down.
I smile back.
Link stares at me in confusion, but soon brushes it off.
We get our food and start eating.
…
I stare out the window as the rain falls from the sky and hits the ground.
The sound of the rain relaxes me…
It's afternoon and…
I'm conflicted.
I love Link, right?
He saved me… And we got together.
But… Ever since I met Ike… That spark I had with him disappeared.
Do I not love Link anymore?
I shake my head. That's ridiculous!
He's my knight in armor…
Or is he?
No, he is.
I know it.
…Or do I?
Ugh, what is up with this annoying new voice? Link is my one and only love…
Or is he?
I sigh. This is difficult.
"Hey, Zelda."
I jump and whip my head to see Ike.
He sits next to me. "I saw you here all alone, so I thought I'd keep you company," he says, smiling.
I blush. "T-Thanks…"
Silence.
"So… I see you're in a relationship with Link."
"Yeah…."
"…"
"But, it's not going well…"
"Why not?"
"I…I'm starting to think I like someone else."
"Who?"
I notice how close our faces are to each other… How close our lips are…
"…You…" I whisper.
Silence.
Ike presses his lips to mine.
My eyes widen. Instinctively, I kiss him back, wrapping my arms around his neck.
Ike puts his hands on my waist.
Electricity courses through me and fireworks explode around us.
After what feels like years, we pull away from each other, staring into each other eyes.
"I like you, too," he says softly.
I smile.
"Zelda!"
I jump and turn my head.
There's Link. He's mad. Madder than I've ever seen him…
"Y-You kissed him! And you didn't force away!"
"Link-"
"How could you do this to me?!"
"Well maybe I just don't like you anymore! We're over!"
Silence.
Link storms off.
Ike is silent.
"…Sorry you had to see that…" I say.
"I should give you some time to cool off," Ike says. He stands up and walks away.
I sigh.
Did I make the right choice?
o.o.o.o.o
I think I'm rushing this now… Sorry it's so short…
Hope you enjoyed, though.
Until next time!
