Hey there! Whoa, it's been far too long since I made a new story! 0.0! Remind me to NEVER let that happen again! Anyway, this is a nice little MxG song fic! It's the first in a group of them; they aren't all one story though, but rather a bunch of one-shots grouped together! This just kinda came to me when I was listening to Shut Up by Simple Plan! Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Fire Emblem, it's characters, or the song used in this fiction! (sticks out tongue)
Shut Up
Fed up with the tricks of a certain thief, Guy made his way through camp, planning to put an end to the torment once and for all. Drawing his sword, he scanned the area for the person that annoyed him so much. Gaze locked to his target, the braided man began to sprint.
There you go
You're always so right, it's all a big show
It's all about you
You think you know
What everyone needs
You always take time to criticize me
It seems like everyday, I make mistakes, I just can't get it right
It's like I'm the one you love to hate, but not today
So, shut up, shut up, shut up, don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out, get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up, you'll never stop me
Nothing you say today is gonna bring me down
Heading directly for the spy, he called, "Fight me, Matthew!"
Said thief had little time to react, for the myrmidon was closing in quickly.
"Guy!" the blonde cried as he blocked his attacker's blade with his own.
Thus, an all out battle began.
There you go
You never ask why, it's all big lie
Whatever you do
You think you're special
But I know, and I know, and I know,
And we know that you're not
You're always there to point out my mistakes and shove them in my face
It's like I'm the one you love to hate, but not today
So, shut up, shut up, shut up, don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out, get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up, you'll never stop me
Nothing you say today is gonna bring me down
By that point, the other soldiers had gathered to see what the commotion was about.
Guy was swiping at the Ostian with his sword mercilessly, leaving Matthew with only the ability to dodge.
The thief continued to leap backward, just barely escaping the path of Guy's killing edge. With such difficulty avoiding blows, there was no chance to launch his own attack.
'Guy's serious… I'd better watch myself…'
The swordmaster didn't wear down at all; he somehow managed to keep his quick pace.
Don't tell me who I should be
And don't try to tell me what's right for me
Don't tell me what I should do
I don't wanna waste my time
And watch you fade away
So, shut up, shut up, shut up, don't wanna hear it
Get out, get out, get out, get out of my way
Step up, step up, step up, you'll never stop me
Nothing you say today is gonna bring me down
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
A curved sword was knocked into the air, falling several feet away. As it cut into the ground, time seemed to stop…
Matthew stared cross-eyed at the blade currently pointed at his throat, sweat dripping from his face. He was trapped without a weapon and, for the first time, he didn't know what to do.
"Oath paper," Guy demanded, "Now."
His usually nervous voice had disappeared, being replaced with one of cold, forcefulness.
Stuck in a situation he couldn't get out of, the defeated blonde pulled a piece of paper from his pocket, a piece of paper that was seen as his only hold on the swordsman.
Guy snatched the parchment, tearing it to shreds, and stalked of without another word.
All of the soldiers gaped at his retreating figure before observing Matthew and his reaction. He was stunned, the look on his face a dead giveaway.
Finally collecting himself, the Ostian spy put on a façade of being fine and left in the opposite direction of Guy.
'I guess I deserved that…' he thought bitterly.
At first, Guy felt triumphant. He had finally been freed from the other man's grasp. He was happy… that was until he realized that he destroyed his only connection with Matthew.
'Without that oath paper, there's nothing holding us together… Dammit! What have I done!'
Dropping to his knees, he slammed his fists into the earth beneath him.
After wallowing in self pity for a few minutes, though, a useful thought struck him.
"I gotta find Matthew!"
As Matthew sat alone on a tree stump, he wondered what he would say to the Sacaen the next he saw him. For they would still be paired with each other during battles, something the tactician seemed to love setting up…
'Hmmm… Guy… Speak of the devil…" he pondered as he noticed the myrmidon walking, 'toward me? But why?'
"Matthew!" he called, "I've finally found you!"
He stopped for a minute to catch his breath, then stood up straight to face the spy.
"M-Matthew, I-I-I…" he started.
The Ostian spat, "Well? Do you have something to say or not?"
Angered by Matthew's tone, Guy stomped over to him and gripped his shirt.
"Look, you bastard, I'm TRYING to apologize! That fight wasn't fair and-and I'm… I'M SORRY!"
He started to pound his fists into the taller man's chest, like a child throwing a tantrum.
Tears streamed down the swordsman's face as he confessed, "I'm really sorry! You're the closest thing I have to a friend, and I don't wanna lose you! I-I just got so frustrated wi-with your teasing! Please don't hate me!"
Matthew sighed sympathetically, pulling the swordmaster into an embrace.
"Shut up," he whined, "You're gonna make me cry if you don't turn off the waterworks."
"D-does that mean?" Guy looked up hopefully.
The blonde grinned, "I can't stay mad at you. Besides… it's more fun when you're the one who's angry at me!"
Ignoring the last comment, the Sacaen buried his face in the other's shirt and smiled.
"By the way…" Matthew added with a mischievous smirk, "We should hug more often… It's exciting…"
Blushing wildly, Guy tugged Matthew's top tighter and prayed that the spy wouldn't see his face.
"…But… now I feel really bad…"
Guy questioned, "Hm? Why?"
"Well," he admitted, "That… wasn't the oath paper you tore up earlier..."
"WHAT!"
So? Whatcha think? Funny? Good? Bad? Stupid? Do tell! If I get a few reviews, I'll post the next song-fic in the group!
