Chapter 3: Marth x Roy

Some of the Smashers realized that something was off with two certain swordsmen. Ever since the Melee tournament and the Subspace Emissary incident, Marth and Roy grew to become good friends. They were close… a LITTLE too close, in fact. Lately, in the Smash 4 tournament, the two had been avoiding each other, not because they're mad at each other, but… because of something else.

Peach and Zelda were on the case. Peach had asked Roy questions about his and Marth's friendship, but Roy ignored her. Zelda also asked Marth the same questions, but Marth stormed out with a "none of your business!"

The two girls knew that something was up, and they both had an idea.

When Roy returned from his training, Peach stopped him.

"Hey, Roy." Peach waved, smiling innocently.

"If you're going to ask me those questions again, please don't." Roy commented, turning his back on her.

Peach stared. However, she kept her composure and spoke, "I'm not, just wanted to talk to you—"

Roy turned to face her. "It's about me and Marth, right?"

"What?! No! I want you to come with me."

Even if the answer was no, Peach forced him to come with her anyway. The two arrived to see Zelda standing beside the Couples' Room.

"Hey Roy." Zelda greeted.

"Hey, Zelda." Roy sighed before he turned to Peach. "So… what do you wan—"

"PUSH HIM IN!" Zelda cried, giggling like a maniac.

"Wha—" Before Roy could say anything, he was suddenly pushed in the Couples' Room, and he heard a click!

He was locked in.

"HEY!" Roy cried, getting up from the ground and trying to pry the door open. "Let me OUT!"

The two girls giggled. "At least we didn't have to tie and gag him." Peach commented.

"Thank goodness." Zelda giggled, imagining if they actually did tie him up.

Marth came out of his room, stretching from a nap. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zelda in front of him.

"Oh… hello Zelda." Marth smiled, but the back of his mind was telling him that something was up.

"Hello, Marth." Zelda smiled, "Can we talk?"

"Sure… but it's not about Roy again, right?"

Zelda giggled a bit. "Of course not. Just a chat is all."

The two walked down the stairs, only to see Peach.

"Oh. Peach." Marth waved, smiling slightly, "You're here too?"

"Yes. NOW!"

"Huh?!" Marth was then pushed inside the Couples' Room. Inside, Roy was casually sitting in one of the chairs, sightseeing a bit until Marth was pushed in.

"Wh—MARTH?!" Roy gasped.

Before Marth could go after the girls, they closed the door and locked it.

"HEY! What's the big idea?!" He shouted.

"You two had been avoiding each other for some time." Zelda said casually, "I think it's time you two should talk."

"Wh—are you crazy?! Let us out! We'll talk to each other when we have time!"

"Not until you talk to Roy for a bit. THEN we'll let you out." Peach laughed.

Marth sighed. Looks like neither of them have no way out of this.

Turning to Roy, who was just staring at what could be Shulk's Monado and Lucina's sword, he asked, "Um… you too?"

"Yeah." Roy nodded, avoiding eye contact.

"Sometimes I don't understand women…"

"Same."

"WE HEARD THAT!" Zelda and Peach cried simultaneously.

Marth just simply sighed. Sitting across from the red-head boy, he asked. "So… how was everything since the fourth tournament?"

"Been practicing. I'm still feeling down that I couldn't get back in." Roy said nonchalantly. At least the conversation started off well.

"I… see." Marth trailed off, looking around the room.

Outside, the girls were snickering. "C'mon… tell him your feelings." Zelda whispered.

"By the way…" Roy turned to him, "Why are you avoiding me?"

"I wanted to ask the same question."

"Oh… well," Roy blushed slightly, "w-we were friends for years. I-I don't know why I'm like that at all."

Marth got up and walked to the door as he spoke, "I'm not sure either, Roy. Was it because—"

He then heard a yelp, and Marth turned… Roy seemed to have tripped on something, and he was about to fall to the ground. However, Marth acted fast and grabbed his smaller body, holding him in a hug.

Roy looked up and blushed. "Uh, thanks?"

Marth realized the position they were in, and he too blushed. "S-sorry." He wanted to let Roy go, but… he enjoyed the position they were in now. Thinking it over, he realized what Zelda and Peach were trying to do: have either him or Roy confess their love. They were right: Marth's in love with his best friend.

"A-anyway, what were you saying—MMPH?!" Roy was cut off when Marth's lips met his. Roy tensed up, but his heart was warmed up as he accepted the kiss.

After a few minutes, their lips parted, and Marth then confessed out loud for both Roy and the girls to hear: "I love you, Roy."

Roy blushed, but he smiled. "I love you too, Marth."

They both heard a click, and the door was open. They were being let out by the girls.

However, when they walked out, the girls were holding a tape recorder.

"Hahaha! I got it all on tape!" Zelda giggled like a maniac.

"Let's put it on Youtube!" Peach suggested.

"What?! WHY YOU—" Marth growled, and soon enough, he was chasing after them, with the girls running away and shouting, "We regret nothing!"

Roy watched the two, but he smiled. At least they finally confessed, and now their friendship grew to become love.

Sorry about how bad it was or if it doesn't make sense: my brain is dying right now LOL

Constructive criticism is welcomed :D
