I own nothing but the idea.

4. Fireworks

"Are you sure that it's a good idea to leave Link to everyone else?" Marth whispered, looking at his and his boyfriend's intertwined hands.

"It's the 4th of July. You think I want to spend it with my friends?"

"Why not? We came to the festival together-"

"And we'll leave the festival together as well. But, the fireworks are just Ike and Marth. No fuss."

Marth sighed. "Very well, Ike. Lead the way."

The duo walked around for a while before finding a place to sit. Ike laid out a blanket before picking up Marth. He squealed, surprised by this action. "Ike! Put me down-"

"Shush or Link will hear you. You know how sensitive his ears are."

The two sat, with Marth in Ike's lap, on the blanket. "Comfy?"

Marth let out a noise that signaled a yes. Ike looked down to find that his eyes were shut. "Don't fall asleep on me now."

"I won't." He snuggled himself into Ike's arms.

"Happy we left them behind now?"

"...Roy is probably going to kill me but…I suppose so."

"Well, Roy isn't your boyfriend. I am. So, I choose what I want to do with you."

"Ike…" Marth warned, opening his eyes. "Touchy topic alert. You're not still mad at him, are you?"

"...Can you blame me? I saw him kiss you-"

"He was my boyfriend."

"And he still has feelings for you. I know he does." He kissed Marth's neck. "You're just irresistible."

"Anyway, you have to explain where we went."

"Deal." He kissed the top of Marth's head.

A whiz was heard and the two went silent. Marth placed his hand on top of Ike's, which sat flat against his stomach. The first firework was orange and Marth gasped.

Ike chuckled at his boyfriend's childish nature. He then found himself lost in Marth's eyes. He watched as crystal blue lit up with oranges and greens.

"The fireworks are in the sky, you know?"

Ike blushed at Marth's comment. "Well, I…" He placed his chin on Marth's shoulder. "Your eyes shouldn't be so pretty then."

"That's the best you can do?"

"As if I could have done better."

"I can." Marth turned, kissing Ike. He took the older teen by surprise. His eyes widen before he sank into the kiss.

The fireworks continued to go off behind him and Ike watched as they changed the color scheme of Marth's blue ensemble.

Marth was the one to break the kiss. "I think I win." He turned back to the fireworks. "I wish the sky was always this pretty."

"If it were as pretty as you…I'd be happy."

Should we join them?" Pit asked, taking a sip of his soda.

"Of course not, you idiot," Roy replied, looking at the two. "They clearly want to be alone." He watched as Marth giggled at something Ike said.

"Those two are really cute, I have to say," Link said to no one in particular, looking at a blue firework explode. "If not a handful." He placed his can between the three of them. "A toast to the fourth!"

"To the fourth!"

Roy smiled, still looking at the couple. One day, Marth. I promise.

That underlying MarthxRoy will be explained. Anyway, I'm all up to date now.

See you guys l8tr!
