Samus woke up that night and decided to go down stairs to get something to eat. She was still excited from that smile that Ike had givin her last night. She strolled down into the kitchen only to be surprised at who was there at 3 in the morning. Ike.
"Hi" he said. Greeting her with the same smile he had givin her earlier, with the same effect. Samus could't move, that is until she heard her stomach growl which reminded her that she was still she remebered that she still hadn't responded to Ikes greeting.
" Hey" Samus said back to him, not sure what to say next.
" I see you get late night cravings too huh?" Ike commemted " Yeah, I guess I just like something to put my tummy to sleep", Samus said with a grin. Ike took the last sip of his milk and responded.
"So have a seat, I mean if we are both here why don't we get to know each other a bit better." Ike gestured to the chair next to his and started to the fridge to find the milk. He must really like milk Samus noted, taking note of the empty cartoon on the table then sitting down on the cold chair."You want anything Sam?" Ike asked. She couldn't believe it! Ike asked her if she wanted something, which meant he did care about her, and he called her Sam!! She just managed to snap out of her trance to say that she wanted some apple juice. She watched him as he beant down into the fridge and noticed something on his shoulder. It was a tattoo of the yin and yang symbol! She was speechless! She had the same one on her lower back!
"Ike! When did you get that tattoo?" She asked him, forgetting to hide her excitement.
"Oh, that. I got it when I first got here, it reminds me of my past and how I was so full of myself that I ran away from home and challenged everyone I saw. Almost got myself killed. This tattoo reminds me that I have to stay balanced, loyal, true and honest", Ike finshed. Samus was amazed at how easy he had opened up to her. Ike was even surprised.
"Wow, thats really something", Samus said, then added, "I have the same one!" "Really?! Can I see it?" Ike asked, excited already. Samus was astonished. He really was interested in her! She turned around and pulled her tank top up just enough for her tattoo to be shown."Wow,it's exactly the same design. Why did you get yours?" Ike asked now very engaged in the conversation, he was now right next to Samus. She pulled her shirt back down and turned to face Ike as she spoke.
"Well me and my Dad were really close before he passed, he would tell me all about fighting and how to protect myself. I was daddy's girl. The one thing that he made me promise before he died was that I would always stay true myself and keep balanced on the line of truth and honesty. So I got this tattoo before he passed as a reminder to alaways keep that promise."Samus finished. She felt really good telling him about her past, opening up to him felt natural.
"I had no idea that you had such a past." Ike was bewildered. He had no idea that she was so deep.
Samus was finishing off her glass when Ike stood up and said " I think its time for me to hit the sack, maybe we should do this again sometime." Ike said walking away leaving the milk out half empty. Men.
"Sure, absolutely, night" Samus said wishing good night. Ike left and went upstairs and Samus finshed her glass of apple juice. After that she made her way slowly to her room and lay back in her bed. Well, if events from the day before weren't enough to get her dreaming of Ike then that last conversation might. She closed her eyes, fell asleep peacefully.
