After Skyward Sword

Link remained smiling, and finally spoke. "I… I'm going to stay here. Here… with you Zel." He laughed.

Zelda blush and looked down. "Great…Hey…. Link… Remember the last time we were up here?" She asked, backing away.

"Yeah….. How could I?" Link laughed and looked a Zelda. "You okay?"

"Uh…. Well… You know the ceremony….. Right?" Zelda asked, blushing like mad.

"Yeah, Why?" He asked, stepping closer to her.

"Uh…" Zelda stammered, backing away. "Well…. We haven't necessarily fulfilled the whole ritual… I…."

"Yeah?" Link asked, getting worried.

"The day we were up there, I was really nervous and thought I was gonna pass out. In the end…. You weren't supposed to jump off the statue…" She started to shake.

"Zel…..? You-"

He took another step toward her and she looked up, showing her face.

"I panicked. I chickened out….." She shook her head, still looking at him. "I…. You were supposed to….."

"Supposed to what?" Link's eyes widened.

"Kiss me…"

There was an awkward silence. Zelda looked away from Link and Link looked away from Zelda.

"I… Was…." He whispered, getting a little angry. He could have already told her about his feelings before, but it might have killed him even more to think of her kiss, if it had happened during his journey.

"I….. you don't have to! I already pushed you off a statue….. You've done enough… Especially considering you saved my life!"

Link blushed REALLY bad. He had dreamed of this moment, but dreaming was easier than doing.

Zelda looked over the edge and really considered jumping off. She looked at Link, who was lost in thought, and jumped. She knew that was stupid but she couldn't stay up there anymore. She also didn't get over the fact, she used him. She hated it….

Link noticed her figure's absence and looked up to see her gone. He ran and looked over the edge.

Zelda was nearly to the ground, covering her eyes and bracing herself for the blow.

Link, without thinking, jumped off and leaned forward, causing him to fall faster than Zelda. He was in reach of her when they were a few yards from the ground. He pulled out the sailcloth and grabbed Zelda's hand.

Zelda looked up and saw Link draw her into his warm embrace. They both slowly fell to the ground and Link let go of her to put away the sailcloth.

"Are you crazy!" Link cried, still red a little.

"I…" She stammered, looking down. "I thought….. I….."

She looked up and met his eyes. "I….." She stopped. His eyes were beautiful. She couldn't help but get lost in them.

"Just….." Link sighed. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap at-" He stopped. Zelda took a step closer and put a finger to his lips.

"I, was the one who did a stupid thing… You don't need to apologize." She said.

Link looked in her eyes and pulled her hand down. He slid his hand down her arm and finally got to his hand to hers. He pulled her closer to her and smiled. "Did I forget to tell you how much I missed you?" He asked, smiling.

Zelda got lost in his eyes again and didn't notice how close they were standing. She shook her head and he drew closer to her. His face was soon so close, she couldn't breath. She felt her heart race and beat fast against her chest.

Link leaned in even closer til he could feel her breathing against his skin. He smiled again and His lips meet hers.

Zelda's heart leaped out of her chest and she closed her eyes. Sadly, He didn't kiss her for very long. Only 5 seconds. Her eyes meet his and she smiled.

"Was that good enough?" Link smiled and let go of her hand.

Zelda frowned. "No." She stated blankly.

Link frowned and his eyes widened. His blue eyes shown in the light. He was irresistible.

Zelda grabbed his shirt and pushed him against the goddess statue. She looked in his eyes and pressed her lips against Link's. She felt like flying. She felt…. Happy…

Link was in shock, but it was a good kind of shock. He kissed her back and put one of his hands on the back of her neck and the other around her waist.

Zelda move her hands up to his face and one ran through his hair. She was finally having the kiss she was longing for.

They finally pulled away and smiled to each other.

"I was wondering when that would happen." Someone said, laughing.

Zelda looked behind her and saw her father standing there, smiling. "Oh…. Hi Father…." Zelda blushed, noticing Groose and his buddies behind him. She was shocked and relieved that they weren't yelling and throwing fits. He had FINALLY moved on.

"He He….. Um how much of that did you see…?" Zelda asked shyly.

"From the first kiss-"

"To the second one." Groose's buddies laughed.
