Of course she was here again. How could she stay away. She wasn't the type you'd expect anywhere near this shop and that was true. She knew nothing about the place other than HE was a frequent customer. He was almost always found here, In this dinky card shop.

He was everything you'd expect from a card geek (and she meant that in the nicest way) but with all the looks of a handsome jock. She sighed and remembered why she had walked all the way here from her house in northern Hyrule. The walk had taken her 2 hours and left a few blisters on her feet. The light pink sandals she was wearing were not made for walking that far, Although they did nicely match her skirt of the same color that came down to her knee and her semi-tight top that color made it flow nicely into the skirts, almost as if they were one.

As Zelda pushed open the door to the shop, she tried to avoid all the looks of the shops customers as they pondered; why she of all people would be there. Zelda looked around quickly and spotted what she had come for: him. He was sitting in the corner of the shop playing some card game with a few other people.

She walked over silently and stood next to the table watching quietly while they played the game. Everyone but the guy she had come for looked at her curiously when she sat down and began trying to figure out what was happening. Before she could think too much, the other guys threw their hands in the air furiously, packed up their own decks, and stood up before leaving the shop. It was then that he looked over at her and smiled kindly before speaking.

"Hiya. I feel like I should know you from somewhere" he thought for a few moments "...zelda… was it? From Kakariko High?"

She nodded "Yeah and you're Link, from Mr. Ghirahim's homeroom"

"Yeah I thought I knew that pretty face from somewhere" With this, she blushed gently and looked at him before he spoke "So what brings you to this little shop? I would've expected you to be in the new mall that opened last weekend instead of in the company of us nerds."

"I went the day it opened" She paused while he gave a small laugh and was shuffling his deck of cards yet still giving her his full attention " I actually came by because i…-" *crap*she thought *why now! Why must I start losing it already* "- I uh...I umm c... came by because I wanted to ask you how to play this lovely game" *CRAP why did I say that?! I could care less honestly!?*

Link looked at her in shock and raised an eyebrow "Really? Zelda NoHansen, one of the most popular girls in school, came here just to ask me to teach her how to play Magic: The Gathering?" She nodded and blushed, still cursing herself for backing out of her original plan so quickly "That's right...You always play it in the mornings at school and you seem to be good at it so I thought you'd be the best one to ask"

"You've been watching me?" he asked with a small smile that was not mocking or rude, but honored ...and slightly creeped out…but honored none the less

"Well no…I mean yes but not because I'm a stalker but because i-"He cut her off with a card to the lips and chuckled "okay, okay calm down a bit I was messing with ya. If you really want to learn I would be happy to help…well except that there IS a tournament going on. It'll have to wait 'till after…although you can watch my games and see if you can figure out some basics by watching"

"That would be nice, thanks" She smiled and felt her blush return as the next round started and she began trying to figure out what goes on. *so you tap the little forests or swamps for energy that you use to play creatures but the creatures sometimes need multiple of one color or both colors or any kind…this is gonna be confusing* And she continued, observing from next to link, each match she scooted closer almost unconsciously until she was pressing against his side for the last match. "umm..zel..Would you mind scooting a bit that way.. My arms asleep" She let out a squeak of embarrassment as her blush flared and she hurriedly moved her chair several inches away.

The round had ended like all the others, with link winning near flawlessly. The shop owner gave him his prize: $30, a playmat with one of the creatures on it, and a pack of cards for him to open.

"So, zel, I assume you don't have a deck"

"oh..crap...no I don't.." She began pondering what she could do now but was stopped by Link handing her a small box that she had seen on the counter. "Here you go, A starting deck, Perfect for learning how to play" he said as he handed the owner around half of his winnings in payment

"Y…You didn't have to buy me a deck…"

"Nonsense! How would I teach you without you having your own?" He proclaimed as he walked back towards his table with a handsome smile on his face. With this she smiled thankfully, gave him a soft, yet meaningful hug while all she could think was *I really could be in love this guy*
