It was Sunday morning as Pit, Kuro, Ike, Link and Marth were all awake and in the dining room upstairs eating breakfast. Link was the only one that noticed a small limp in Marth's walk, and when he tried to sit down, it looked as if he was struggling a bit
Link clenched his hand into a fist, anger boiling up inside of him. One day…-oh, one day I'll definitely kill Ike for what he's done to Marth!
Link didn't notice his anger was beginning to show on his face. "Hey, Link, are you okay?" Marth asked.
The blonde looked up at Marth, his anger diminishing once he looked at his crush's face. "I'm fine, just deep into thought that's all." He said reassuringly. "That's good, because I thought you were mad at me or something." Marth sighed in relief.
"Why in the world would I be mad at you?" 'It's Ike I'm mad at right now, not you.'
"I don't know," Marth confessed, "It just seemed that way."
"Oh, sorry about that," Link apologized.
"That's okay," Marth smiled, making Link's heart race. He loved to see Marth happy; he would do anything to see his smile.
Later
That morning the guys went outside and took a walk around the neighborhood. It was really nice out, the good weather was urging more people come outside and enjoy it. Walking down the block an idea lit up in Pit's head. "Hey, guys," He began, getting Kuro, Link, Marth and Ike's attention. "We should go to the beach today."
"Yeah, we should!" Marth agreed. The rest of the group decided that it was a good idea and headed back to Kuro and Pit's house to get their swimsuits.
Back at the House
The boys all went to their rooms; Kuro and Pit had their rooms upstairs while Link, Marth and Ike had to use the guest rooms; Ike and Marth shared a room while Link had one to himself.
In Marth and Ike's room the two had already found their swimming suits in their bags they brought with them. Just as Ike was about to change out of his clothes and into his swim suit out of the corner of his eye he saw Marth glance at him, a small blush on his cheeks. The bluenette smirked. "Nuh-ah-ah, no peeking,"
Marth blushed even more when Ike said this. "I-I was not peeking!" Marth protested.
"Oh really?" Ike quizzed as he approached Marth, not giving him an inch of space between him and Marth. "Then why are you hard here?" Ike whispered as he traced his finger over the bulge in Marth's pants. A moan escaped Marth's lips as Ike kept playing with him. The teen gripped Ike's shirt as he felt himself not able to stand anymore. Ike noticed as he stopped only to carry Marth to the bed behind them and set him down before climbing on top of him. Ike unzipped Marth's pants and pulled them down below his waist along with his boxers underneath. He snaked his hand around Marth's member and began to stroke it slowly, earning a moan.
"Haa…Ike, s-stop…nnh…we're gonna be late!" Marth said in between moans as he tried to convince Ike, but his pleas fell on deaf ears as Ike continued.
"I suggest that if you don't want us to get caught, you should keep your voice down." Ike teased, switching to giving his love a blowjob.
"Fuck you-Ah!" Marth groaned, trying so hard to swallow back his moans as he gripped the sheets on the bed.
"Love you too," Ike lifted his head and chuckled before resuming.
From Outside
Link stood cautiously by Ike and Marth's room door, putting his ear to the wood. And as he suspected, the two were "doing it" again. The elf-eared teen clenched his hand into a fist. He wanted to murder Ike…he wanted him dead and away from his beloved Marth.
The blonde imagined it in his mind as clear as water;
Ike was alone as Link crept up on him from behind, a stainless steel knife in his right hand, a cloth in the other. Link accidentally bumped his foot against a nearby table, stubbing his toe as he urged himself not to overreact and start freaking out uncontrollably (which is something I would do…). Instead the blonde gritted his teeth, "Fuck!" He cursed, loud enough for Ike to realize Link was behind him. "Oh, hi Link." Ike greeted calmly. Link didn't reply in the same manner as he advanced towards to Ike, clueless of his intentions. "You're fucking dead, bastard." Link growled, raising the silver knife and stabbed a defenseless Ike multiple times with the blade, smothering his screams with the cloth he brought with him. After a while Ike finally stopped fighting back, his body limp as it fell to the blood stained floor.
While Link day-dreamt his perfect revenge, the door suddenly opened and hit him dead on in the face.
"Oh shoot, sorry Link." Ike apologized quickly.
Link had fallen back onto the floor, a nice big lump on his head. "…Who the hell has doors that open outward!?" He groaned.
'That's what you get for thinking about killing Ike.' Link's inner voice said in an "I told you so" tone.
"Shuddup, no one asked you…" Link growled mentally to his know-it-all conscience.
"Link, are you alright?" Marth asked in concern, extending his hand to help him up.
"…Yeah, I'm okay." Link replied as grabbed Marth's hand, Marth helped him back up on his feet.
Link examined the two for a second before asking, "Did you guys already change into your swimsuits?"
"Yeah, we're just wearing clothes over them." Ike replied.
"Good, because Pit, Kuro and I are just waiting for you," Link said, a hint of impatience in his voice.
Ike looked at Link with a nervous look in his eyes. "O-oh, sorry about that," Marth nudged Ike hard in the side as if in saying, 'Told you so.' Ike rolled his eyes, giving an obvious, 'Oh, whatever!'
Later at the Beach
(Author's Note: In this scene Marth and Ike had already changed out of their clothes and are wearing their swimsuits…I couldn't find a better way to explain that very well in this part. Kuro, Link and Pit are also in their swimsuits, just wanted to point that out quickly.)
At the beach the sun was bright, and the sand hot and dry under their feet as Kuro, Pit, Link, Marth and Ike found a place to settle down as they laid out their towels, all except for Marth who borrowed a free beach chair that were all lined up by the public showers and restrooms.
"One of these things is not like the other. One of these things doesn't belong." Ike began to randomly sing. (Thanks to Sesame Street…me and my weird references.)
Marth looked at Ike in confusion before he finally realized what he was talking about. "Oh, be quiet, Ike!" Marth said, making Ike laugh in response.
"I'm going to go and swim now." Link said, secretly wanting to get away from Ike for a bit as he stood up and rushed to the water.
If I stay one more second near him, I can't guarantee he'll be alive for another tomorrow! Link thought angrily.
"I wonder what's up with him." Pit said, sitting up as he watched Link walk away.
Kuro glanced at his brother, then lay back on his towel and closed his eyes. "It's probably nothing,"
(Link's P.O.V.)
The moment I stepped in the water, I felt as though all my worries were being washed away. I went farther out into the water and submerged my head underwater, using this time to think my thoughts.
Why…why was I so stupid for waiting this long to confess my feelings to Marth, he obviously wouldn't wait for me forever. Ugh! Why am I so shy!?
'Link, please don't beat yourself up about this…' My inner voice begged.
Then what am I supposed to do!?
'Find someone else; there has to someone other than Marth that you like.'
…You think this is so easy, just to give up and move on from the person I loved for such a long time.
'…I know it's not easy, but please listen to me when I tell you this, the more you cling yourself to your love for Marth, all it's going to do is make you miserable knowing he's already been taken…-and also, you're not a fish, get up!'
My lungs were becoming sore because I've been underwater longer than expected. I rushed to the surface of the water, gulping the air I needed to breathe.
Brushing my golden locks of hair from my eyes, I thought deeply about the whole "conversation" I had underwater.
"Maybe you're right…" I thought aloud, obviously forgetting I was in public.
"Right about what?" A girl asked.
I finally snapped out of my train of thoughts and looked up, a girl wearing a two-piece swimsuit looking at me curiously.
"Oh…um, sorry I was just talking to myself…" I explained nervously.
"I see…well, my name's Zelda," The girl smiled.
"I'm Link." I replied.
"It's nice to meet you, Link." The long blonde-haired girl said happily, her blue eyes gleaming in the sunlight.
"You too," I smiled back.
"Yo, Zelda!" Someone called.
A look of disappointment appeared on her face as she sighed, looking back to see a tan-skinned boy with an…interesting pompadour for a hairdo wearing a green swimsuit head there way.
"Hey, Zelda." He greeted the blonde girl kindly, just noticing me-what felt like-an eternity later and looked at me in disgust. "Who the heck is this idiot?"
At this my anger level shot through the roof as I gave him this death glare that clearly said "Say that to me and one night I will be hiding in your closet with a knife and will murder you in your sleep." (…Yup, all that with one look in the eye…)
But the cocky teen didn't pay any attention to it, but instead focused on Zelda.
"C'mon Zelda, let's get away from this freak." He said, taking a hold of the girl's hand. But she pulled away from him and glared. "No." She said confidently.
The teen looked a bit shocked at Zelda's words. "B-but…"
"Don't make me repeat myself, Groose." She warned.
For a tough looking guy, he looked as if he were about to cry.
"F-fine then; stick around with this loser for all I care!" He snapped, running away.
That's right, run with your tail between your legs. I thought in a victorious manner. I could tell from here on out we're going to be rivals for quite a while.
"Sorry about that, Link." Zelda said suddenly. "Groose tends to be a jerk sometimes."
"That's alright; I'm used to that kind of stuff anyways." I replied.
Zelda looked at me, her eyes full of worry. "You shouldn't be!"
"Huh?" I was confused by what she meant.
"You shouldn't be used to it because people shouldn't be bullying others." Zelda explained.
Zelda must be serious about this. I thought.
"Like you said, they're jerks that just want attention." I shrugged.
"Yeah," Zelda agreed.
(Author's P.O.V.)
There was an awkward silence between the two, everyone else around them having fun in the water.
"Hey, Link!" A familiar voice called.
The blonde boy-as well as Zelda turned around to see an excited angel run towards them. "We're leaving right now." Pit said.
Link frowned. "But we just got here!" He complained.
"Sorry," Pit scratched the back of his head nervously. "My Mom just called saying that we all have to go back home because she never 'agreed' to us going out to the beach."
"No offence," Zelda stepped in. "But your Mom sounds really…overprotective."
"Yeah, she's always been that way for as long as I remember." The angel chuckled lightly. "I'm Pit by the way." He introduced himself.
"My name's Zelda." She smiled. "It's nice to meet you."
"You too, Zelda." He replied, (obviously) checking her out. From beside him Link just rolled his eyes.
Suddenly Pit felt his ear being pinched roughly. "Stop flirting and let's go before Mom kills us both." Pit's brother, Kuro, scolded him, dragging him by the ear away from Zelda.
"Ow ow ow!" Pit cried painfully, attracting some people's attention. "The least you could do was not humiliate me…" Pit groaned.
"Mom would do the same to you anyways if you began to flirt with other girls." Kuro said. "So don't think you can get away with just because she's not here."
"You're so mean!" Kuro's brother pouted.
"I know." Kuro smirked.
Zelda giggled lightly at the two brothers. "I wish I had siblings." She sighed.
"Same," Link agreed. "It's boring to be an only child." Link thought for a moment before saying, "We should hang out sometime."
"Want to meet here again next week?" Zelda suggested.
"Why next week?" Link asked.
"Because of school." Zelda paused. "Or do you not go to school?"
Link felt so stupid. "Right, I almost forgot. Actually, I want to forget!" He joked.
"Don't we all?" Zelda laughed.
The two just stood there, not exactly knowing what to say next.
"…I'll see you later then, Zelda." Link waved before running back to the beach to where Pit, Kuro, Ike and Marth were already ready to leave.
"Bye!" Zelda called, unsure if Link heard her or not since he just kept on running. But that didn't matter; they were going to meet here next week anyways, giving them plenty of time to talk to each other.
