Danger: loud, horrible singing inside. Your ears are likely to bleed. Enter at your own risk.
The next day (Sunday)
-won't leave until we get some,
We won't leave until we get some,
We won't leave until we get some,
So bring some right here!
"Um... Oh I know!"
Jingle bells
Jingle bells
Jingle all the way-
"-no no! You're singing it wrong!"
"How do you sing it then?"
"Like this! Ahem..."
Jingle bells
Batman smells
Robin laid an egg-
"-just don't sing that in front of Robin, okay?"
"Oh... Right."
Almost everyone's three favorite swordsmen (Ike, Marth, and Link) walked down the halls, singing Christmas carols... Or, trying to anyway.
-walking in a winter wonderland
Link finished his song. Ike and Marth clapped mockingly, and Link bowed in the same kind of manner.
"That. Was. Terrible." Said Ike
"My ears bled." Said Marth.
"Thank you." Said Link, bowing again. "It's wonderful to hear such praise from my adoring fans." The others laughed, and Link joined in.
"To tell you the truth, that was actually much better than I expected from you." Said Marth. "Good job."
Link chuckled.
"I agree." Said Ike. "But it never beats my singing!"
With that, Ike started singing "oh Christmas Tree" as terribly as he could. The other two joined in.
Zelda stepped out of her room with her ears plugged.
When the boys caught sight of her, they burst out laughing.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? A crowd of maniacs." Said Zelda, giggling. Samus' head popped out of her room.
"All clear?" She asked hopefully.
"Not for long." Said Marth. Samus pouted, but came out anyways. The boys laughed again.
They headed to lunch in the cafeteria.
Cafeteria
Just like Link had said days ago, a big bush of mistletoe had been hung up in the cafeteria. Surprisingly, a couple was found underneath it already. It was even more surprising to see that the couple was Roy and Lilina.
Link looked at them with surprise.
"I wonder if they ended up there on accident, if Roy and Lilina walked under there on purpose, or if Roy dragged her under there." Said Marth.
"I think they both went under on purpose." Said Link.
Ike kept looking from Samus to the bush. Samus noticed this, and leaned on his shoulder, as if to say: I'd love to do that with you. Just not in front of everybody, okay?
Ike squeezed her shoulders, telling Samus: Alright.
Link was thinking something very similar, only with him and Zelda. He never kissed underneath mistletoe before. He was more than willing to try it.
Zelda's head was pressed against Link's chest. She got the message just by feeling his heart beat faster. She silently agreed that they will do it, sometime.
Marth found Malon coming through the door, and beckoned her over.
After school
Samus and Ike met up at the cafeteria.
"It's weird." Said Samus. "I never thought about two people actually planning in advance what we are about to do now."
"Eh, we both wanted to do it, so we will." Said Ike. He held onto Samus' wrist. Together, they walked under the hanging plant. Ike stroked Samus' cheek, before bringing her face closer to his, and gently claiming her lips. Samus returned it.
That's a new book!
