It had been a couple of days since the cooking incident, and Fox was lucky that the Mario Bros were still able to cook still after they had made a fantastic breakfast the next morning to make up for the disaster. Fox was just sitting around until Samus had asked him if he wanted to watch a movie with her. Of course, how could he deny it? He was then coming up to her room, thinking how he could swoon her.
"Hmm... maybe I should have the popcorn next to me so that she has to reach near me? Or maybe we should share the same drink?", he thought to himself as he approached her room. He then knocked on the door.
"Hey, it's me.", he said as the door then opened and Samus let him in.
"Hey, Bayonetta has gone back to Sega for her new game and I had to clean up the place. She will be in and out of the mansion for a couple of months.", she explained. Fox then plopped down on the couch.
"This place is more clean than any place in the mansion. I don't think you have to make it spotless!", he joked, making her laugh a little. They then heard a knock from the door.
"Who's that?", Fox asked as Samus opened the door. She smiled as she opened it more and Pikachu came right in and jumped onto the couch.
"Sorry, but I usually invite Pikachu whenever we do these type of nights. I don't know how I could say no to him or not invite him at all, I never want to see him with tears and sadness! You don't mind, do you!?" she asked worriedly.
Fox just shook his head,"Naw! He is kind of cute, I don't think he will be a pest!", Samus then just sighed and smiled.
"Thank you! I still need to get some snacks from over at our cabinet, can you wait a minute?", she asked.
"Sure.", Fox replied as she went over to get them their snacks. Fox and Pikachu then stared at each other.
"Hey there!", Fox said as he put his arm out,"Looks like we are going to have a great time to...OW!", he yelled as Pikachu bit him on the fingers.
"What's going on?", Samus asked as she heard Fox yell.
"He bit me!", Fox said as he was holding onto his hand."Probably thought I was giving him a treat, do you have any thing that he likes?", he asked as Samus went back to the snacks. She then brought him a cherry,"He really likes these.", she said as she gave him one. She then went back and Fox was holding out his hand with the cherry.
"Here you go.", he said as he gave it to him. However, Pikachu spit the cherry from his mouth and then glared at Fox, who was confused at the moment.
"That's weird..", he said as Samus came back with some snacks and sat next to him. Pikachu then crawled over to her and laid down in her lap.
"Are we ready?", she asked, only getting a nod from Fox,"Okay then...", she said as she began the movie. It was an action movie and they were enjoying it for the most part. Fox then decided to wrap his arm around Samus as he was reaching out, however, he was still nervous about doing it.
"Come on Fox, you can do it! She is finally going out with you and now you can spend time with her! Find the courage and...OW!", he yelled as he was brought out of his thoughts as he felt a little zap to his hand. Samus then looked concerned at him.
"What's the matter?", she asked.
"Nothing, just a little static electricity.", he said while rubbing his hand. He then looked at Pikachu, who was glaring at him, Fox knew where that 'static electricity' had came from. He then glared back at the pokemon,"It's nothing at all..."
The next couple of nights had also been awful. Fox would try to get close to Samus, but Pikachu would make him retreat back by some form of pain. Fox tried a couple of ways to separate the two from the other, first, he had locked the door after he came into the room, but Samus unlocked it after hearing Pikachu knock, thinking that she had accidentally locked it when Fox came in. Fox then made Pikachu drain all of his electricity from his body, however, Pikachu still used his tail to smack Fox's hand whenever it got too close for his liking. That was when Fox had decided to use his trump card that he had never thought of playing with before.
"Alright Pikachu, you have forced my hand!", he thought to himself as he came up to her room and knocked on the door.
"It's me.", he said as she opened up and he came in.
"Okay, we just need Pikachu and then we can get started.", she said. Fox was all ready to see Pikachu's face when he revealed his plan to get close to her. They then heard a knock from the door, Samus opened it and picked up Pikachu into her arms.
"Alright, let's get started and..."
"Samus,", Fox spoke up,"how about tonight you sit in my lap?", he asked.
Both Samus and Pikachu stared at Fox, however, Pikachu was of anger. Samus blushed a little when he had said this,"Well... I don't know..."
"Oh come on! What is the worst that could happen?", he asked pushingly, he really wanted Samus near him tonight and wanted to show that pokemon who was in charge.
"Well, it's just... it's..."
"Yeah?", Fox asked, eager to hear what she had to say.
"It's just that...you will get a boner.", she finally let out.
Fox then began to laugh out loud,"What!? No I won't, come on! Ah-ha-ha!", he continued laughing. However, he knew she was right. He was afraid that getting close would cause his body to be active.
"Well... okay...", Samus said finally agreeing. Pikachu had a face of one that was of someone deciding to replace him. Fox then sat down on the couch and helped Samus onto him as they began the movie. All was going well as they went on.
"Alright, ten minutes in and so far so good.", he thought to himself as they watched. However, he then felt his body tightening and the blood moving to a certain place. He then began to get up and stand.
"Oh man! Sorry, I felt a cramp coming on and I definitely did not want to feel it!", he said trying to convince her.
"Well, that's...oh, I forgot to get the drinks!", Samus said as she picked Pikachu up and put him in Fox's arms as she went back to the cabinet. Fox and Pikachu then glared at each other while growling.
"I have had enough of you right about now!", Fox growled at him while Pikachu was letting some sparks out of his cheeks. They then heard Samus coming back and tried to play innocent by pretending to like each other.
"Sorry, I have to go get some from the machine. How are you guys doing?", she asked.
"Never better!", Fox said through a fake smile.
"Pikachu!", the pokemon said while using his paws to grab onto Fox's face and twist his cheeks, making Fox slightly whimper.
"Ok, be back in a couple of minutes.", Samus said as she left. Once she was gone, Fox then threw Pikachu down to the floor.
"That's it!", he yelled as he kicked him onto his back. He then pounced on him and began pummelling him in the face.
"You like that!? How about THIS!?", he growled as he continued punching Pikachu in the face. Pikachu then kicked Fox in the face and knocked him off of him and then he began to let electricity flow in his body.
"Pika-CHU!", he yelled before zapping Fox with a blast of electricity. After Fox was hit from the blast and was recovering from the volts, Pikachu then pounced on him and bit him on his neck, not causing any bleeding but enough to hurt. Fox then threw Pikachu off from him and jumped on him as they began to roll over each other on the floor.
"WHY YOU LITTLE RODENT! I'M GOING..."
"PIKA PI..."
"What is going on here!?", they then heard as they looked up and saw Samus in the door way, returning from the machine. They both then stood up and smiled as if nothing had happened.
"Nothing!", Fox said whilst trying to maintain his smile.
"Pikachu!", the pokemon agreed with him.
"Both of you are lying.", Samus said,"Both of you are bleeding from the mouth and I can smell the smoke coming off of Fox." Both then put their hands up to their mouths and saw that they were indeed bleeding, Fox then smelled the smoke that was coming off from him from the electrical attack.
"Why are you two fighting?", Samus asked them.
"It's his fault!", Fox suddenly bursted out,"He has been hurting me whenever I try to get close to you by zapping me, whacking me with his tail, or biting me!"
"Pikachu, is this true?", Samus asked the pokemon.
Pikachu then looked away, not wanting to look her into the eyes because he was afraid she would be mad at him and would never see him again.
"Pikachu...", she said before picking him up and making him look at her, tears coming out of his eyes."Pikachu...did you think I wouldn't be paying any attention to you anymore?" Pikachu then nodded his head before letting out all of his tears and burying his head into her shoulder, crying very hard.
"Pikachu...", she said before pulling him out and looking at him,"Pikachu... I would never replace you! I know I may not see you as much since I am now dating, I know that since I spent a good amount of time with Cloud instead of you, but I would never neglect you nor forget you. I will try to make time for you, but please don't be a pest to someone else because of it, especially Fox."
Pikachu then tried to clean his tears and sniffed before smiling at her,"Pikachu..."
"That's right, I forgive you.", she said before kissing him on top of his head. She then hears whimpering and saw Fox look at her.
"How come you give him a kiss, but not me who has been trying to get close to you?", he faked whine.
"Good grief...", she said before rolling her eyes and going up towards Fox. She then kissed him on top of his head,"Better?", she asked.
Fox then breathed in and looked into the air,"Better.", he said, making her laugh.
"Alright, let's make up and just get started.", she said. She then made both look at each other.
Fox then sighed,"Fine, I'm sorry Pikachu..."
"Pikachu...", he replied, sounding like he was not interested in the first place.
"Okay...now shake hands.", Samus said. Both were reluctant to do it, but eventually they did, wanting to be on Samus's good side. They then settled down and watched the movie. At about halfway through, Pikachu had fallen asleep and was slightly snoring. This caught Samus's attention.
"Aw! He's so cute when he does this!", she said while Fox was just looking and not caring.
"Come on! It's not that cute!", he said as went back to the movie. Then, a thought popped up into his head,"Wouldn't you think my snoring would be cuter?", he asked with a smirk.
Samus then blushed at this,"Well...um..", she stammered as Fox continued smiling at her."Um... I think you're thinking too far ahead!", she said, making Fox frown.
"What? But don't you want me to complement on how good your body is?", he asked as he smiled at her lewdly. Samus then blushed, but was determined not to be out joked.
"Well, not until I complement a certain something on you. After all, it is like a human's, just covered in fur.", she snickered as he then began to blush. However, he also was determined not to be out joked.
He then snickered,"It sounds like you have had experience with it to...", he then stopped when he saw her mood drop. He should have remembered what had happened a while back.
"Wait! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to...", he stammered, not wanting to let that get back into her head.
"No, it was me! I shouldn't have joked about it!", Samus said, trying to shake the thoughts from her head. Fox then wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into him,"Hey, it's okay. I'm here for you.", he whispered, making her feel better.
"Thank you.", she said before hugging him back,"I'll try to open up more with you, but it may take a while before we get real close."
"It's fine, just take your time, I'll wait.", Fox said while smiling at her. Samus then drew closer and kissed him on the cheek, making him melt again and making her laugh.
"How are we supposed to get closer if you melt every time?", she asked.
He then looked at her,"Well, there is time to come with it.", he said, making her laugh again before finally resting on him and finishing the movie.
