Chapter One: Surprise.

Music…?

Dark's eyes fluttered open. He glanced around the small room, his eyes stopping on the single figure standing before the window across from him. A slight smile graced his lips. He could hear the band playing on the streets below; the sound drifted through the open window. The scent of freshly baked bread reached his nose; his empty stomach growled impatiently. He wagged his head, the rustling of the fabric catching the attention of the room's other occupant.

"So you're awake."

"And starving." Dark added, rubbing his stomach. An annoyed sigh escaped from the other's lips. "Come now, Hero! Where's your sense of humor?"

"…I thought you were dead," whispered the hero, mostly to himself; Dark's elfin ears easily picked up the statement. He carefully swung his legs over the side of the twin bed, climbing to his feet. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around the hero's slender waist.

"Link, you of all people should know: I don't go down that easily." he whispered against the other's neck. Dark could feel Link's muscles tensing. The blonde suddenly pushed him away and strode towards the door.

"You should rest," he said over his shoulder. "I'll come to check on you in a little while."

"…Wait!" Dark called, not wanting Link to leave.

"What is it?" inquired the blonde, turning slightly to face his shadow.

"U-uhm…" Dark stuttered. What could he say that would keep Link here for a while longer? "Could you send up some food?" Link nodded solemnly and walked out of the room, closing the door and locking it behind him. Angered with himself, Dark slapped his forehead. Where's the charm when I need it most? He threw himself onto the bed and stared blankly at the beige ceiling. Why was Link acting so…strange? Was it because of what happened when the Bulblins ambushed them? It wasn't his fault that they knocked him off a cliff. Dark pushed a rogue strand of raven-black hair from his brow and closed his eyes. He still didn't understand why Link was acting so weird. Stuff like that happened all the time. It had to have been something the hero wasn't telling him. His thoughts were interrupted as another growl emanated from his still empty stomach. He sat up and stared down at his cloth-covered belly. "Will you shut up?" he flared. The door gently swung open and a tall, thin young woman stepped into the room; she carried a tin tray with a small sandwich and a glass of water. She walked over to the side of the bed and smiled down at the shadow who occupied it.

"I've brought you something to snack on while dinner's cooking." she explained. Dark smiled at her and gratefully took the tray. He set it on his lap and quickly began devouring the sandwich. The woman covered her mouth with a dainty hand, holding back a laugh. Glancing outside, Dark noticed a crowd gathering in front of the castle gates. He furrowed his brow.

"What's going on?" he asked, nodding towards the window.

"Ah, yes! It must be the king. I believe he's come to give Princess Zelda and her fiancé his blessings." she replied, a wistful expression on her face.

"Who's the lucky man?" inquired the shadow, his mouth still full of the sandwich. He picked up the glass of water and began to take a sip.

"I believe it's that young blonde fellow who was up her a while ago." sighed the woman, her head tilted to the side. Dark spit out the water in his mouth, drenching the foot of the bed and a little of the woman's dress.

"What?"

Wow. I am so mean! XD Sorry, but I had to have some sort of dramatic thing to piss Dark off!

Dark: ...Screw you.

Me: No, stupid! You do that with Link! D:

Dark: But he's being pissy!! DDD:

Link: I AM NOT!!!!

Me & Dark: O_O?

Link: grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

Dark: Please, R&R. So that Rain can hurry up and make Link non-pissy so we can— MMPH!

Me: Shhh! Don't tell them!!
