Healing

It seemed that keeping Kirby's health from dropping too low wasn't difficult, as long as he was able to get to the food first. Meta Knight, King Dedede, and Waddle Dee all made sure Kirby got first pickings-not just because he was team leader, but because none of them wanted to go through the embarrassing process of sharing food. In fact, Kirby had no idea such a thing was possible, so having to explain the whole scenario just seemed more awkward. They managed to avoid it altogether until later on. Kirby took a massive hit from Knuckle Joe, and Meta Knight realized he wouldn't last much longer in his condition. He looked down at the burger in his hands and sighed. He really needed health too.

Mustering up his courage, he popped the burger into his mouth, swallowed, and walked over to Kirby. Before the puff could object at all, Meta Knight lifted his mask and kissed him full on the mouth. Kirby jumped in surprise, but didn't move away. Meta Knight pulled back quickly. Kirby was blushing hard.

"I-I'm sorry Kirby, I should've told you-"

Kirby moved forward and planted a kiss on his lips, as if to return the favor, then smiled brightly.

"Poyo!"

Kirby scurried off to catch up with the others, leaving Meta Knight standing there, wondering if he'd given the puff the wrong idea.
