It took some doing, but the Sun's Mask was finally in Kafei's possession! "Link thank you so much!" Kafei said as he wrapped him in a hug. Link didn't have to do this, he already had the mask's he needed, he could've gone and faced off with Majora, however he decided to go back one more time to help Kafei, he developed a crush on the purple haired boy, not that he let it show, but there was just something about him, he also noticed Kafei got more affectionate over the past 3 days. "Kafei, are you ready?" Link said, it looked like Kafei was lost in thought. "Kafei, are you okay?" Link said with no response. "Kafei!" He finally blinked. "What? oh yes! Yes let's go!" Kafei was about to start til' Link grabbed his shoulder "What's wrong Kafei?" Link asked "Nothing" Kafei said plainly. "Kafei, I know I've only known you for three days." That was a lie, well technically it was the truth, Link had been in Termina for about a month, but it was all in the 3 days. "But I see that look in your face that says something's wrong." Kafei was amazed. "You're a good friend to pick up things like that quickly. Well, it's just, if I don't age again, I don't want to have Anju wait for me for 9 years, and I don't want people to judge her for being in her thirties and marrying an 18 year old." Link was amazed, Kafei had been so excited to meet Anju again. "Well, what do you intend to do?" Link asked. "I don't know to be honest, I also don't wanna have to hide forever, I-I just don't know." Kafei looked scared now, he didn't know what to do. Link had an idea.
"Come with me back to Hyrule!" Link said cheerfully. "W-what!?" Kafei never thought about that, he knew Link was from another land, and he did want to visit there one day, but he never thought of living there. "Link that's very nice of you, but I don't wanna be a bur-" "You won't be, I own a small treehouse in a village in the woods The people there will like you!" Link lied, sort of. The Kokiri did enjoy seeing foreign people, he wasn't sure about living with them, especially when they grow up, but even if they were accepted Link and Kafei would have to move out eventually, the treehouse can accommodate one adult, but two might get crowded. "It'll be great I promise!" Kafei blushed, he was definitely getting used to Link's company, and despite only knowing him for three days, he would miss him dearly. "Alright Link, I accept you offer, thank you so much." Kafei said as he wrapped Link in a hug.
"Oh god" Kafei thought, why did he do that? He hoped Link thought nothing of that sign of affection, but to his surprise, Link hugged back just as tight. As the two walked out of Sakon's Hideout they looked up to something horrifying. It was time! The sky was lit up with the moon burning light about to crash down. Kafei was freaking out, he was shaking horribly, Link tried his best to keep calm, he knew what he had to do. He pulled his Ocarina out and slowly began the Song of Time. At the last note Kafei wrapped Link in a hug. "Link I love you!" He shouted. Both were stunned at that statement, Kafei not as much when he warped through time.
The next thing he knew, it was dawn of a new day, he and Link were in front of the Clocktower. "W-WHAT HAPPENED!?" Kafei asked stunned. Link just gave him a blushing smile "L-Link..." Kafei didn't know what to say, he ran back to his hideout, Link followed closely. "Kafei wait!" Just as Kafei was about to shut the door, Link stuck his foot in the door. "Kafei please." Kafei looked at the sad blue eyes, hung his head and let him in. As he walked in, Kafei went to his bed, and curled into a ball. "Kafei what did you me-" "I don't know, I don't know why I said that." Link wrapped his arm around him to see his reaction, Kafei didn't push "How do you feel about me?" Link asked. "I-I-I... I have a crush." Kafei finally said. Link blushed, happy with the answer. "So why so scared?" Link asked. "I didn't wanna lose you as a friend." Link yawned "I'd never leave you Kafei. Why do you think I want you to come back with me?" Kafei started dozing off "C'mon we've been up since midnight, There's no way to get to Majora til' the Festival, I already have everything I need to stop it from bringing the moon down too, so we have 3 days to ourselves, doesn't that sound nice?" Link looked down at Kafei, he was already fast asleep, this gave Link an idea, he lay down Kafei and went right next to him still in his arms. 'If he asks when we wake up, I'll just say we both must have fallen asleep like this!' Link thought.
