Warning: Story may never get finished. Just thought you should know before you fall in love with it. Kidding, kidding. It probably isn't that good.
Enjoy!
"Yeah, sorry. I'd feel bad if you caught this." I pouted into the phone. I had been looking forward to spending time with Link today, but he ended up being sick.
"Are you sure you don't want me to come over?" I held my breath, hoping he would let me take care of him.
"No, I'll just sleep today, so I should be fine tomorrow." I sighed and I'm sure he heard it. "I'm sorry, Sheik. Some other time."
I knew it would do me no good to continue this. Link is stubborn as a mule. "I guess. Bye."
"Bye." And then he hung up.
I threw my phone to the end of my bed and flopped back. It isn't like Link is my boyfriend or anything. I don't have the right to push myself into his life. Though I have been friends with him since I first came to Hyrule almost a decade ago with my aunt. And I developed a massive crush on him when he started to develop. If you know what I mean. Not that it is a stupid crush anymore. Over the years, I excepted the fact that I love him. I'd never tell Link about it.
So, as I lay on my bed thinking, I decided to bring Link some things to make him feel better. Sure, I wouldn't stay. But it would raise my spirits if I could help in the slightest. I ended up going down to the corner store. Now I had a proper care package. A sealed bowl filled with home-made chicken noodle soup, some crackers, pain medication, cold medication, and some cute stickers. Hey, I'm a little silly at times. Link never complains.
It is a twenty-seven minute walk to Link's house, not that I go over there often enough to have memorized little things such as time... Okay, I'll admit I do walk to Link's almost everyday. His grandma greets me with a kind smile and then I make my way up to his room. I knock on his door and receive no answer. So, I knock again. Nothing. Maybe he is sleeping. Then the door opens and Link looks a little shocked at me being there. I'm a little shocked because he doesn't have a shirt on.
"Sheik?" I smile shyly, trying not to look at his muscled chest, and go to hand him the bag of things I brought, but a voice rings out.
"Linky? I'm waiting." A girl is sitting on his bed, a robe the only thing that is covering her.
Then I realize something. Link is in just pants. No underwear. Just pants. As in, he had to throw something on real quick, just pants. He isn't really sick, he wanted a reason to not see me today so he could be with some girl. He lied to me so he could have sex with some slut. My breathing gets heavy and I throw the bag to the floor. I won't let him see me cry.
I turn and walk down the hall, headed towards the stairs. "Wait! Sheik!"
Link's hand lands on my shoulder and I look at it with disgust. "Don't fucking touch me." He flinches at the tone of my voice and I hurry down the stairs then out the front door.
A black car pulls into the drive as I make my way off the porch and I can see Dark as he grins at me. His car door opens and the devilish male gets out as I go to pass the car. His mischievous smile is as evil as ever. It reminds me about Link telling me not to get involved with Dark and I feel like I want to do just that to get back at him. So, I do something stupid. I grab Dark's shirt collar and pull him to me, crashing my lips into his. Just a quick kiss. My first one actually.
"Sheik?" He seems confused as I walk around the car and get in the passenger seat.
I'm buckling my seat belt as Dark gets back in the driver seat. "Drive me home, please."
"Sure...?" Dark gives me a weird look, but takes me home nonetheless. Then, as he parks in my drive, Dark turns to me. "What was that all about?"
"Do you want to go out with me, Dark?" His eyes widen.
"Well... I-"
I cross my arms and scowl. "Just answer the question."
Dark scowls back. "I can't if I don't know what brought all this on. I mean, you kiss me and now you're offering me something I've wanted for years. Where is the Sheik I know?"
"He lied to me and I want to get back at him..." I whisper this and Dark leans in to hear.
"What-"
"He said he was sick and I worried for him. I just wanted to take care of him and I find out he wanted to fuck around with some girl." Tears stream down my cheeks and I bite my lip to keep in a sob. "He lied to me, dammit!"
"Hey." Dark rubs my shoulder, trying to soothe me. "There, there."
"Am I not good enough?" I nuzzle into Dark's chest as he shifts closer, or as close as he can get without going over the seat divider.
"You're more than good enough."
"Here, Dark." I shifted as he took the offered box.
"What's this?" I made a 'go on' gesture and Dark shrugged. He undid the latch keeping the box shut and then looked up at me like I was a goddess. "Did you make me lunch?"
"Yeah. It has all your favorite things. Octo legs, a bottle of Lake Hylia water, a grilled goat cheese and cucco sandwh-" I was stopped in my listing of things Dark liked as he surged upward to give me a chaste kiss. It was nice to be with Dark.
"Aww. Dark and Sheik are a thing." Dark scowled over at his sister and I hid my face in his shoulder.
I was sat down in the chair next to him and Dark wrapped an arm around my shoulders. "Leave us be, Bird." I giggled as Dark leaned over to feed me an octo leg.
"Why should I? You are my brother. I can do what I want. And this is kinda my house too." She clapped her hands together and then her face paled. "Does Link know?"
I smiled as Dark fed me a piece of grilled reekfish. The taste was almost unbearable, but the sauce I had made with Kakariko hot sauce was worth it. "What does it matter if Link knows? He hasn't ever shown an interest in Sheik, so he has no say in this." Dark smirked when I licked the sauce off his finger. Perhaps, I could fall for him. This was meant to make Link mad, but I never realized how charming Dark is. Maybe because I never get to spend time with him.
"Yeah, but he is awful protective of him. Especially when it comes to you, Dark." It was at that moment that I was seized from Dark's lap, how I had ended up in his lap was beyond me.
I struggled at first, but stopped when the person's voice reached my ears. "What the hell are you doing?!"
"I was eating lunch." Dark had stood up and I knew he was eye level with the man holding me. But what would you expect from twins.
Link set me down, but grabbed my wrist, tugging me along. "Sheik, we are leaving. Obviously, I can't leave you alone or you end up with bad company."
I pulled away and rushed back over to Dark. "Leaving? You mean you want to bring me into that room of yours that you fucked her in."
"You can't possibly want to stay near him." Dark's hands gently caressed my arms as I shuddered in rage.
"Why would I want to stay near you!" Tears streamed down my face as the emotions I bottled were set free.
"Because I actually care about you." He rushed over and tried to seize my wrist again, but I pulled my hand back and then smacked him across the face.
Link looked stunned. "Like hell you do. You are nothing but a fucking, goddess-damned liar! If you cared, you wouldn't have lied. You would have just told me you had plans. How hard is that, really."
Shaking with anger, I hissed through my teeth. "If you cared for me than you would have realized that I was in love with you."
The room hushed as my words were taken in. The only one that knew being Dark, his arms wrapping around me once more.
"You love me?" Link's whispered words sounded more like yelling in the quiet space.
"Did." I could feel everyone wince at my harsh tone.
"I did. Yes. But I don't think I do anymore. You aren't the person I thought you were, Link." I clenched my fist and willed my voice to be unwavering. "Maybe if you didn't trick me and lie to me, then perhaps I would still."
"Sheik." Link's fingers grazed my arm, but then he pulled back. "I'm so sorry."
Yet another story I want to continue, but can't find the words to. Shame really. I have a feeling it would turn out really good. (Whether that be as a Shink or Dark Shink, I'm unsure.)
Review. Maybe we can figure out this thing together.
See you guys around, (Maybe this story, maybe another.)
