Hello! This is a series of random days of Link and Zelda so it'll jumped back and forth in timeline. I wrote it for the fun of it.

Hope you enjoy!

Zelda stares intensely with her brows diving as deep as it could go. Her rosy cheeks puffed as soon as the heat begins to rise through her face. Biting her lower lips, she let out a heavy sigh. Sweat covered her bare forehead making her skin glisten in the sun's ray that is peaking through the window. Finally blinking for the first time for what seem like hours, she held up the zucchini and observed the long vegetable.

"What am I suppose to do with this?"

Link was standing by the door, observing since he was ordered not to assist. He held his breath and clenched his teeth in anxiety as he watched Zelda turn the vegetable over and over. "Um..."

Without looking back to him, Zelda pointed her finger in the air as if to hush him. "Link, I told you not to assist me."

Link smiled nervously as Zelda put the zucchini on the cutting board. Zelda held the knife on her right hand and held it over the vegetable. Biting her lower lip, a drop of sweat slid down her glistening face. Gently cutting the zucchini, a breath of relief filled the room from her cherry lips. Link smiles as Zelda finishes cutting, but his worries never wavered as he realized what the next step is.

Zelda looks over to the pan of oil that has been sitting on the fire lit stove. The heat can be seen rising as well as it can be felt from a few feet away. Without a second thought, she grabs the cut up vegetable and immediately walks on over.

"Wait, Zelda!" Link quickly hurried on over to her, but he was too late. She threw the vegetable in and, immediately, oil spew all over from the water still lingering on its skin. Before the boiling oil could burn her fair skin, Link pulled her back just in time. Soon, the oil caught on fire and lit up the room bright and hot. As Link was about to grab a towel, Zelda quickly turned around and grabbed the bowl of water. Letting his guard down, Link felt something sink deep into his stomach as his heart suddenly felt like it stopped. He turned around just in time to see what Zelda was attempting to do.

"Zelda!" Link screamed as he pulled her back with enough force that they both fell down as the already raging fire grew twice its size, wildly licking the ceiling and walls. Zelda turned to look at the hellish fire with shock. She turned to face Link who was lying beneath her with a pale face and tears in her eyes. Link smiles as he shifted out from underneath her, ready to face the deadly fire that threatens the existence of their little house.

Zelda sat on the large rock outside as she stared lifelessly at the darkening purple sky. Her face full of soot along with her ragged clothes. The smell of burnt wood lingered on her skin. Her once perfectly combed hair now lie frizzed and tangled against her small frame. She heard the cracking of wood coming from behind her, and turned around to face the chaos she had unleashed earlier.

The little house, or hut as she called it, was completely burnt on one side and barely standing on the other. Link came around the burnt side of the building, which once was the kitchen, completely covered in soot. He wiped his face on his already dirty, blue sleeve as he made his way towards Zelda.

"Well, the fire spread faster than I thought. At least our valuables are safe. It's a good thing I decided to make the bedrooms on the other side of the house. We can still use the bedroom...well, at least yours is still usable...but we'll have to bathe in the stream for a while until I can rebuild the house." Link spoke as he stood by Zelda looking at the building. "Tomorrow, I'll go into town and...Zelda?" Link turned to look at Zelda with her head hung low.

He wiped his face once more and knelt before her. In a soft whisper, Link gently touched her shoulder. "Zelda?" He heard a sniffle. "Zelda, what's wrong?" She shook her head without looking up. "Zelda, look at me." Link spoke as he gently brushed her hair back.

Zelda hesitantly looked up at Link with tears falling like rain. Although crying and covered in soot, her face was still rosy. "I'm So Sorry!" Zelda held her cracking voice back. "After you worked so hard to make this hut, I went and burnt it up. I'm so sorry, Link. You must hate me." Zelda barely whispered the last few words.

Link was a bit shocked, but couldn't help but laugh. "Did you think I was mad? And what made you think that I hated you?"

Zelda sniffed. "Well, I stubbornly refused you to assist me and I burnt the hut down. I was so sure that I can do it by myself if I just read the recipe from the book. I'm so stupid!"

"Uh..." Link hesitated and wasn't quite sure how to respond to that. "Well, I suppose. But it's also my fault. I should've stopped you but I didn't."

"You're always saying that it's your fault when it's clearly mine! I just.. it's just that you're so good at everything. I wanted to be at least helpful to you in some way. I've done nothing but burden you with more trouble."

Link smiled as he cupped her tiny face in his hands. "No you're not, Zelda. You're not a burden to me. You never were and never will. If you want to learn how to do things, I will teach you. So don't you ever dare to think you are a burden to me, because you're not. You're very special to me."

The tears Zelda was holding in suddenly burst out as she swung herself into Link's arms. She buried herself into his firm, muscular chest as she loudly let herself cry. Link held her shivering frail body tightly, and gently rubbed her back while rocking her. After a moment, Link pulled away and lifted her snot-filled face to look at him. He wanted to laugh but only smiled as not to hurt her pride. He gently wiped her tears and kissed her head.

"It's getting dark. We should go clean ourselves up before it gets too dark to see." Link stood up and pulled Zelda to her feet. "I'll grab us some clothes and some light. But we should hurry." Link said as he held her hand as they walked. "I at least want to set up a tent before it gets too dark to see."

As she let him lead her, she bit her lips and hesitantly spoke softer than a whisper. "I...I don't mind if we shared a room."

Link immediately stopped and stared at her with blushing cheeks.. Zelda suddenly felt bashful as she didn't think he would've heard that. "I-I-I-I mean that since I burned down your room, it's only fair that you get to sleep in mine. So you don't have to set up a tent since it'll be too dark out anyways and..." Zelda realized the more she tried to explain her reasoning, the more embarrassing it got.

She bit her lips and shyly looked at him. His face still blushing as he looked away. After a moment of awkward silence, Link squeezes her hand gently. "Then...don't mind if I intrude...I'll take you up on that offer." The both of them felt their body temperature rise even higher. Link turned to look at Zelda and met her eyes. They both turned away for a mere moment but found each other's eyes again. They laughed as they both realized how silly they looked and walked towards the stream hand in hand.
