Summary: Tetra comforts Link after a loss. little bit o' fluff here ;) I do not own Legend of Zelda
Tetra sat there on a crate talking to King of the Red Lions, now stuck inside the ships cargo bay.
"Tetra you must understand that he has been through very,very much these past few months, his mind is on edge now. And the death of his Grandmother is just making it worse". Tetra looked up at him saying." I already knew that it took 2 of my strongest men to yank him away from the grave stone. I cant believe that that little dork of a sister refuses to leave Windfall island what has she got there that is so important". The King shifted his wooden hull in the tub of water provided for him. " That I do not know my friend". Tetra yawned and stood up saying. " Well im gonna head off to bed we gotta rise early when we arrive at Windfall tommorow". The King smiled and said, " Good night, Tetra", awkwardly shifting in the tub of water.
Tetra descended up the stairs and up to her quarters, she walked right past Links room and peered inside. Link was in bed the covers over him, his eyes facing the wall. She quickly changed into her pajamas and walked back to Links room. She knelt at his bedside concern writen across her tanned features. Her soft voice pierced his thoughts, "Link, you still awake"? she said as he pulled the covers closer to himself. She rested her hand on his shoulder.
She silently admired how tough his muscles were, and how his blond hair was a suddle copper-gold mix in the dim candle light. Finally he turned around his eyes meeting hers. " I wanted to talk about you about your loss, maybe I could--"." Theres nothing you can do Tetra, she meant a lot to me, and I know why my sister is making us come to her. Because she hates me, she hates me because I left and my grandmother was left all alone when I went to save her. She hates me because she was the only thing she had closest to a mother and she hates me because she died waiting for me to damn return"! Link turned away leaving Tetra a pleasent view of his back.
She layed her hand on his shoulder saying, " Link Ive been wanting to say this for a long time, I care about you, you mean very much to me, I dont want to lose you Link. Link turned to face her his eyes holding back tears, suddenly he started sobbing and buried his face in the pillow. Tetra sat on the bed and stroked his back as he sobbed into the pillow.
After a while he fell asleep on the pillow his sobs now silent. Tetra layed down next to him pulling the covers over the both of them. She wrapped a arm around him resting her head on the pillow. She saw him begining to awaken and look upon her with groggy eyes. Soon he pulled her close saying, " You forgot to blow out the candle". Tetra smiled slyly and blew out the candle leaving them in the dark. Soon Tetra felt Link press his lips to hers, his mouth was soft and warm and her heart fluttered in the rush of the moment. He stroked his hand over her cheek and the kiss deepened. Soon they had to pull away gasping for breath. But soon kissed again but this time lightly and softly. They awoke the next morning their arms wrapped warmly around each other.
They rubbed their eyes as someone opened their door. It was Aryll Links sister. Link stood up as Tetra stared on at Aryll. Instead of what Link was expecting, a cold slap to the face, Aryll fell into his arms crying loudly. " Im sorry for everything I said Link, im sorry im so sorry". He comforted her stroking his hair tenderly. " Shh, shh its ok Aryll I forgive you". They walked out of the cabin and out onto the deck stretching tired limbs. Tetra came up behind Link and kissed him again. Aryll stood up and cheered at that moment saying, " I knew you two were meant for each other"!
