A/N: It's been a very long time since I wrote something, I wonder if I'm a little rusty? This is different than what I usually try to write. I'm going to try to keep them short, mainly because I write slowly and I want a way to keep up. So they're more like drabbles I guess. Don't want to make this too long, there is more on my profile if people are curious.
As far as pairings go, this is eventually going to be Zelink. Key word being eventually, so if you're reading for Zelink fluff (which, I do and like a lot. A lot more then I'll ever admit), then you're in for a long wait (Like, the longest wait in the history of forever.)
Anyways, onwards! Let's start at the beginning.

Warnings: This story will contain swearing and is more the likely to have sexual situations later on in the story, for those they'll be another warning when those come up.
Link – Innocent Bliss
He was five when he is wakened by his mother in the dead of night. It was only a few hours earlier that he was sung to sleep by her. She pulled him from the bed, and dressed him in his day clothes with only the light from his spaceship nightlight as a guide. By the time she is done he has wiped the sleep from his eyes and is full of questions. The only times he allowed to stay up late is when Dad is coming home. He wondered if it means they are getting a surprise visit, though it is odd that his Dad isn't the one that is actually waking him.
His mother picked him up and carried him through the darken hallways to the formal living room in the back of the house. There is a light from the kitchen, which is the only light she dares have on, and it spills into the room. Bags are packed. Only what she had deemed important. Enough clothes, picture books and small family heirlooms. She put a large, oversize, jacket on Link. It's a little too warm for such clothing but it one more thing on his back and not in a bag. She gives him his backpack which she filled with bits of his stuff from his favorite snacks to an extra set of clothes and places his favorite green hat on his head. It is slightly too big on him, but they had figured he would grow into it
Link is excited. He knows something is happening but doesn't realize what. He thinks it a surprise vacation. His mother supposed that is one twisted way at looking at it, but doesn't have the heart to try and explain what really is happening. She settled for trying to calm him down. It's better than watching the back door and the clock, knowing that every second past is a second wasted.
"I love you." She told him, readjusting his hat.
Link squirmed on the couch. He is not in the mood for this game.
"I love you." His mother insisted, poking him in the stomach and causing him to cry out in protest. "This much." She spreads her hand apart.
Link rolled his eyes before giving up. "I love you more." He retorted, before spreading his hands apart creating a wider gap then his mother. "This much."
His mother smiled. "Well, I love you this much." She stretches her arms as wide, as far as she can reach.
"I love you more than the size of this couch." He jumped on said couch for emphasize.
"I love you more than the size of this whole room." His mother said.
Link grinned back at her. "I love you more, bigger then this house."
They continued onwards, getting bigger and bigger until they reached the moon, the sun, and the stars. It was then she heard the back door in the kitchen burst open. Quickly she kissed his forehead and rushed to the kitchen.
Her brother-in-law stood in the doorway, looking more tired than usual. It wasn't the man she was expecting though, and she looked past him for her husband. "Where's Raven?" She inquired.
The man slowly shook his head and she felt like the floor had been ripped away out from beneath her. "No." She said. As if it would make a difference. Her legs felt wobbly and she could feel the panic spreading throughout her chest.
"Uncle Troy!" Link exclaimed form behind her and she quickly pulled herself together.
They had somewhere to get fast. She couldn't afford to break down.
"What are you doing here?" Link smiled up at him.
Uncle Troy let Link give him a high five. "Hey little man. Up late aren't you?"
"I'm not little." Protested Link grumpily, shifting his small backpack higher onto his shoulders.
Uncle Troy shot his mother a look. "We need to leave now if we want to catch the last train."
Link face lit up at the idea of the train. His mother had no such excitement. "Let me collect our bags."
"There will be no room for luggage." Link's Uncle replied.
Link's mother nodded, scooping up Link and heading for the door.
"The train is so cool." Link told them as they filed out the back door, before pausing curiously. "Where are we going?"
His mother took a deep breath. "On vacation," she said, forcing a thin smile and shifting him up higher onto her hip.
"Dad going to meet us there?" That was the important question.
His mother smile fell away completely. "Of course." She gasped. "He is going to meet us there."
"Lisa," Uncle Troy, cut her off sharply as he turned off the lights in the house. Link look curiously at him.
She stiffened at his warning. She rounded on back on him in reply. "Please." She begged. Not now. She can't. It was better for her to pretend.
Uncle Troy sighed and turned to Link. "You're going to need to be quiet and brave until we get to the train, okay? Can you do that?"
Link gave him a thumbs up. His Uncle nodded, and placed an arm around his mother and pulled her close, Link grinning in between them. As they set off into the dark streets of the night Link wonder why exactly everyone was so tense.
