A/N: I'm back! -Puts on a serious face- Okay listen up! The reason I haven't updated any chapters despite the fact I said I would and that I could do it quickly is simple. Not enough reviews. I only got well . . . two reviews for chapter three! Should I rewrite it? Make it better? If so I will. I will give everyone chapter four now, but if you want changes done to chapter three please let me know and I'll do so. Also I may have to change chapter four if I do this or I can make it so that I won't have to . . . stick to the story line. Anyway! Enjoy! Oh! Don't forget to read and review people!

Chapter Four: Marth's Low Profile and A Painful Discovery

The sun rose high into the sky and as if on cue the clouds moved to the side to make a passage so that the mighty ball of fire could complete its task. Almost as if the sun itself was awaking from its slumber, it yawned and stretched causing bright rays to shoot out in every direction of the sky. Be the rays horizontal, vertical, or diagonal each and every one hit its target. One of those targets happened to be Roy's house. A ray penetrated the window and shined violently upon Marth's face.

He groaned and turned over on his side so that his back faced the persistent rays instead. But the rays wouldn't give up and they shined brighter than before and began to take up more space in the now nearly sunlit room. He pulled the covers over his head, but found that going back to sleep was almost impossible now that his eyes were open, and because he was hungry.

'In times like these one would wonder just how far man would go to avoid such annoying obstacles,' he thought grouchily. ( Super Mario Sunshine! Woohoo! Lol)

As he stood from the bed another thought came to his mind, 'Perhaps wearing sunglasses to bed,' he thought tiredly as he exited the room. Sliding his feet across the floor, he made his way to Roy's room. He looked to his right to see the door to the parent's room open and Roy's father wearing sunglasses. 'On second thought . . . I change my mind.'

Marth stood in front of Roy's room and lifted a fisted hand to knock on the door, but Roy beat him to it. So, when Roy stepped out of his room he walked straight into Marth and their lips met in a fiery kiss.

Roy's eyes widened, as did Marth's and they both parted with red tinted cheeks. Marth smirked and laid a hand on top of Roy's messy red hair.

"Roy, I never knew you felt that way about me. Could this possibly be a sign that– "

"No! No way no how!" Roy's blush deepened as he pushed Marth away.

Marth smiled and took note of Roy's crimson colored face. 'He's so cute when he gets all sentimental and shy like this.'

"It seems to me that someone is feeling . . . slushy," Marth teased.

"What!? No!" Roy objected nervously.

"Hmm . . . soppy perhaps?" Marth quirked a brow as he pretended to be in deep thought.

"Marth, let's just get dressed and go out to eat. My parents won't wake up for a while," Roy said with a scowl.

"Fine, fine." Marth went to go change from his medieval pajamas to his casual wear.


-At the Asanagi café-

Roy had ordered a sausage biscuit and an orange juice while Marth ordered a coffee with cream. The blue-haired teen sat staring out of the window and sipping his coffee and then went back to reading his book called, The Joys of Yaoi Love.

Roy stared at Marth. " What the hell. Marth . . . what are you reading?"

"Mmm, the joys of Yaoi love. You see Roy, you and I are like–"

Roy got up to throw away his trash with a blush on his face. 'That baka.'

Marth chuckled and turned to look out the window again to see . . . 'The prep queen. I gotta keep a low profile. I can't let "Princess" Peach see me or else this will get out for sure.' Marth ducked and surveyed the café. There seemed to be a library along with a small reading area in the back.

Roy came back and raised a brow at Marth who seemed to be demonstrating poor stealth tactics. He then looked out the window to see Peach heading this way. 'Oh damn. Why is she here? If anything she'll probably force me to buy her breakfast.'

"Marth, you gotta hide! And . . . I think I'll hide with you," Roy said while grabbing Marth by the collar and dragging him towards the library in the back.

"Roy! Roy! You're going to kill me!" Marth said as he desperately tried to cling to life while being dragged mercilessly into some random section of the library.

Roy let Marth go and stared at something. Marth stood and dusted himself and then turned to glare at the shorter teen. What was he looking at anyway? He turned to see Zelda, the most popular girl in their school. Why in the hell is he staring at her? Marth waved a hand in front of Roy's face, but got no response in return.

"Hello Everyone! Your queen has arrived!" Peach announced vociferously, making heads turn and glares harden.

Zelda's head snapped up to look at the source of the disturbance. It was Peach, one of her best friends at Fire Emblem High. She then noticed Marth and Roy standing there. 'Oh my god! It's Marth! The high school cutie! And . . . Roy, the redheaded geek that her friends tried to usher her into going out with. She gave a weak smile and then suddenly lost interest in reading her book.

"Roy would you snap out of it? We should pay the bill and then get out of here," Marth said hastily.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't Roy and . . . Marth. 'Why are they always hanging out together!? No matter. I'll just get rid of that little problem,' she thought with malice. Roy you should really get better friends. Here, let me get rid of him for you," Peach said in a sickenly sweet voice.

The crazy girl pulled a frying pan out of her purse and raised it over her head with an evil glint in her eyes. Marth didn't like this at all. He tried dragging Roy out of there, but dammit why wouldn't his feet move? Was he glued to the floor or something?

"Hey Z-Zelda," Roy said in a daze.

Zelda ignored Roy, but waved a shy hand at Marth.

"Roy?" Marth said with a hint of hurt in his voice. (Yeah, Marth is ignoring her too.)

Just as Peach swung vertically with the frying pan, Marth let go of Roy's hand and ran off in the direction of the table that they had sat at minutes before. He hurriedly took out some cash and dropped it onto the table before running out of the café leaving Roy, the popular and drama queen Zelda, and the crazy princess Peach behind.


-Dream Land Park-

At first it was sunny earlier this morning, but now it seemed as if everything changed so that it could perfectly match how Marth felt at the moment . . . gloomy. The sky was getting dark, the clouds turned gray, and the sun hid behind it all. Rain began to fall as the sky shed its tears of melancholy.

Marth walked over to the bench with his hands in his pocket and then plopped down carelessly onto the hard wood. 'So I guess Roy likes Zelda huh. I should've known. He would never like me in that way. After all we're just friends and boys don't go together anyway. He sighed heavily and closed his eyes as he lifted his head to the sky. Rain trickled upon and down his face. It could have been tears mixed in with the rain, but you couldn't really tell.

Suddenly his cell phone rang and he took it out to stare at the number and name printed in bold letters on the front. ' Altea Residence . . . '

Marth closed his eyes tightly and flipped the phone open and put it to his ear. "Hello?"

"Marth . . . "

"Yes father?"

"Where in the hell are you? You better bring your ass back here because if you don't and I have to come and find you there will be hell to pay. Do you hear me!?" Mr. Altea yelled into the phone.

Marth flipped the phone shut and sobbed into his hands. The rain seemed to pour even heavier if possible. He sniffed and stood, walking over to the Fountain of Dreams. The water was so clear and immaculate that he could see his reflection perfectly in the water. The water seemed to glow and reflect the moon's beam as water from the top trickled down into the lower level of the fountain. He stared sullenly into the water as he recalled all of the dark memories of his past.

Sapphire eyes turned into a cold ice blue hue as he gripped onto the stone edge of the fountain. He shook violently with anger as memories played through his mind like a horror movie. The water in the fountain froze over and the water that trickled from the top turned into ice shards and shattered into who knows how many pieces. The ground beneath him froze over and soon began to look like an ice-skating rink. Trees glittered with frost, the park benches sparkled, and the temperature dropped below zero degrees. Marth could see his own breath in front of his face, but to him the temperature hasn't changed at all. Snowflakes fell to he ground and then melted, returning back into its original form, water, before turning into ice all over again as it hit frozen ground.

It was now snowing . . . in the month of October. Tears streamed down the blue-haired teen's face and then froze up into a shard of ice and shattered as it hit the ground. A voice ringed out in the distance, but Marth could care less. He felt so hurt. His emotions ran wild and the only thing he could truly feel right now was hatred. The voice in the distance sounded closer now. Marth turned around to see Roy staring at him with shock and worry on his face. Roy looked around, a bit confused as to why it was snowing like this.

"Why are you here?" Marth said with a hint of stoicism.

"Marth, you just suddenly left and I was worried about you," Roy said quietly. "What happened Marth?"

"Nothing happened. Just go home," Marth said in a brusque manner.

"But Marth . . ."

"Leave!" Marth said and as if on cue a flurry of snow and ice rose up from the ground to forcefully knock Roy into a tree.

Roy hurriedly left the scene, oblivious to fiery streaks streaming down his cheeks. ' I'm so confused. What just happened . . . '

Marth suddenly fell unconscious and everything began to melt, looking as if an aberration had never occurred in this flawless picture of nature.
