20 Kisses
Chapter 1: The First.

'Apparently it works.'

'Well, apparently, stuffing your face with a muffin while riding Epona works. Honestly I was growing a little bored by the amount of times you vomited.'

Link couldn't forget. Once again a great, marvellous plan had been foiled due to his rather fragile stomach. Which was ironic, considering the male spent his childhood and teen years eating slightly rotten vegetables and fish. It would be expected that his appetite be laid back, but even the sight of a food he didn't like caused Link to keel over.

Throwing Midna a sarcastic look he replied: 'You weren't much help. I asked for water–– I was dying and begging for water and you just got up and left.'

'You weren't dying.'

'I was in distress!'

'... To be fair, you were exaggerating.'

Link pouted. 'You weren't the one seeing your lunch the second time that day.'

'Will you stop arguing with me? You know I always win.'

Even moodier than before, Link continued with what he was doing. Retrieving a bandage from the tiny bag attached to his belt, he turned back around to face the imp-like creature again.

Inspecting her wound across her tiny wrist, Link made sure there wasn't any dirt or blood which would potentially infect her. 'Let me try. I'm almost certain it works.' Midna rolled her eyes. 'My mother used to do it–– and it did help.'

This was the first time Link had ever mentioned his family. Truthfully, Midna was interested to know more, but there were serious matters at stake. Anyway Din knew how sensitive Link felt when it came to his relatives, so Midna found it wise to stray away from such a subject. 'You're an idiot, but I think you already know that.'

'It's just a thought.'

'A thought?' Midna widened her eyes. 'Are you suggesting you think? Don't hurt yourself too much. I don't want you fainting on me. Again.'

Mumbling obscenities to himself, Link carefully took hold of Midna's wrist and raised the small wound to his lips and kissed it briefly. Lowering her wrist Link began to wrap a bandage around it.

When he met Midna's gaze, he was surprised to find she was fascinated in what he had done.

'When does it take effect?'

'Depends. The pain should stop soon...' Link trailed off when he realised she was being sarcastic again. She clearly thought this was all a load of bullshit.

Grinning mischievously, Midna patted his cheek. 'Aw, don't feel embarrassed. Look, I feel better already.'

Link slumped his shoulders and stood to his feet, Midna's laughter ringing in his ears.

Idiot.
