Lucas couldn't help it. He didn't understand what was wrong with me. He was currently sitting next to a tree watching some of the other younger smashers play a game of tag. He couldn't help but keep looking at her. She made him feel all funny inside and he couldn't understand it.
The girl of his admiration was Nana. The pink ice climber was currently laughing as she ran away from Toon Link. He was aware of the fact that this feeling he was having was love, but there was a slight problem. He had noticed the way Nana would look at Ness. The way she giggled a little more at his jokes than others. The way she smiled more around him. Nana definitely had a crush on Ness.
Ness didn't seem to return the feelings though. To tell the truth Lucas couldn't help but think that Ness wasn't even aware of Nana's flirting. Lucas knew Ness better than anyone else and he was aware of the fact that Ness could be pretty clueless.
Still though Lucas wished he could tell Nana but he was too afraid of rejection and of this causing tension between Ness and him. Lucas couldn't hide it forever though. He cared about Nana too much to let her go, so he had decided he had to make some sort of move or at least tell someone of this problem.
He couldn't tell Popo. Popo was very protective of Nana, therefore he was afraid to get his reaction. He couldn't tell Red either since Red was a bit seclusive and probably wouldn't know what to do himself. And Ness, while... he couldn't really talk to him about it especially if he wasn't aware that Nana liked him. So that left Toon Link.
Toon Link had looked through the whole Smash Bros kitchen for soup. There was absolutely none to be found. He didn't think he could survive if he didn't find any, having anything else sounded horrible at the moment. After all he hadn't had any soup in at least a week.
"Toon Link..." Toon Link's rampaging through cupboards was officially over He turned to see Lucas looking at him with an uneasy and unsure expression.
"Can I... talk to you?" Toon Link cocked his head to the side. What could Lucas need to talk to him about? Whatever it was it must of been important.
"Ok sure."The two made their way to one of the tables outside the kitchen in the cafeteria taking seats across from each other.
"So what's up Lucas?"
"While I have... a problem."
Lucas fidgeted a bit in his seat obviously nervous about telling Toon this problem.
"Ok... so what is it?"
Toon was getting a little impatient, waiting for Lucas to continue
"Well I kind of... have a crush on someone."
Toon Link was a little bit taken aback. He had noticed Lucas seem to blush a bit when near Nana, but he had assumed it was nothing. That must be who Lucas liked... but why was Lucas talking to him about this? Shouldn't he tell Ness, after all according to Ness they told each other everything.
"While why don't you tell her Lucas, Nana might like you back."
"But she doesn't... I already know she likes Ness."
There it was. Toon finally understood, so that was the problem. Now that he thought about it Nana did act a little funny around Ness.
"While maybe he isn't interested, I mean if he doesn't like her back she'd have to give you a chance right?"
Lucas seemed to perk up a bit. "I guess."
"Yeah tell you what Lucas I'll go see if Ness isn't interested you should tell Nana."
Lucas seemed to perk up a lot a smile gracing his features and his eyes glowing with hope. "Um ok. Thanks Toon."
Toon Link smiled back and nodded. Truthfully he and Lucas hadn't really talked all that much one on one. After all Lucas mostly talked to Red and Ness about these types of things. Plus it had been hard to really get to know each other when they mostly just hanged out in their group of young smashers. Toon Link still liked Lucas though, he seemed a bit timid but was nice and he felt more of a connection with him now. With that he waved goodbye and left leaving Lucas smiling hopefully.
