Marth x Reader: My Princess

Chapter 8: Fighting is what I do best

As I woke from my slumber, I could feel the gentle rays of sunlight as they kissed my face. I opened my eyes to the blinding sun, and the world around me slowly came into focus. The room I had awoken in was now familiar. I knew that if had awoken in this bed room, all was right in the world. The familiar, gentle hand caress my hips, as I ever so slowly turned around to see the person next to me. His mouth slightly a gape, with a little drool, all the while holding a protective cage around me. I swear Marth looks so cute when he is asleep. 

The whole sleeping together thing was not meant to be a permanent arrangement. It was Just meant to give me a little bit of security when I had my bad dream. But things don't always go as planned. Night after night, I found myself longing his warmth when I was alone in my room. So I gathered up my courage, and pride, and slipped into his bed whenever I had the chance. Eventually, Marth asked if I wanted to move all my stuff into his room, and stay there permanently. There was a little bit of controversy about the whole thing, but eventually everyone got used to it. 

"Hmmm...Good morning (y/n).....Sleep well?" Marth asked sleepily, as he cuddled into my chest. 

"Yes, very well Marth. How about you?" I giggled. 

"Same here....." he said sleepily. With in seconds, he had passed out on my chest. I slowly stroked his hair as he held me tighter. Over the past few months we had gotten really serious about our relationship, despite the fact that we were still dating, and hadn't done the deed.  But something was plaguing my mind this morning. Ever since I first joined up with Marth, nothing has happened. No towns being raided, no assassinations attempts, no wars, nothing. It's quiet, almost too quite. I just have a feeling that something is going to happen soon. I simply sighed erasing the thoughts from my mind. Deciding it was time to wake up I gently pried Marth from my body, stood up and walked on to the balcony, ignoring his cries. 

"(yyyy/nnnn) come baaackk... " Marth cried tiredly. 

"Come one Marth, It's time to wake up."

"no."

"Marth." 

"noo" 

"Marth.."

"noooooooooo..."

I sighed an walked up to the bed, watching him smirk as if he had won. I came close to his face, as he was reaching out for me, and at the top of my lungs yelled,

"MARTH!" I swear he jump 5 feet in the air, "Get your lazy royal ass up!"

"Okay! Okay! I'm up. No need for yelling...."

"Well I'm going to get ready and go down stairs to eat breakfast. And I'm not waiting for you, cause I'm hungry. Foods before dudes if you know what I'm saying." I smiled, as Marth looked offended. 

"Well, um.... Sleep before chicks..."He countered. Giggling I got my self ready as Marth was still hauling himself out of bed. As I walked out of our shared room I saw Tiki, and called her. 

"Hey Tiki. How is everyone's favorite Manakete this fine morning?" 

"I'm well, thank you for asking." She giggled, looked around and asked, "Wheres Mar-Mar?" 

"Marthy is just getting out of bed right now. Heh, you know how he is. He will be joining us for breakfast soon." While we were walking to the dinning hall we bumped into Corrine, and all three of us made small talk until we reached the dinning hall. I basically ran towards the table leaving the others in my dust, as I indulged in the delicacy's. The food here is something I got used to real quickly. The dress code, not so much. However I only have to where dresses when it's some sort of special occasion, which isn't too bad. About 10 minutes later the whole gang arrived, including Marth (which surprised me), and we began our breakfast.
