The guys are off somewhere in town, I think.
I said I didn't want to come..
I didn't. I want to think.
Windfall is quiet at night. I can listen to the ocean..
And watch it. I'm sitting on a small cliff that juts out over the ocean, leaning on the solitary gravestone.
I don't have enough time to think anymore.
I need time to think...there've been so many changes.
The shock of discovering I was last in the royal line.
Having to help build a new world for everyone.
A real one.
Something more than a handful of scattered, sparsely inhabited islands.
Something better.
Din knows how long we'll have to work for it..
I sigh and close my eyes, relaxing against the gravestone. It's been worn smooth by the years and makes a rather nice backrest.
"Tetra?"
Any other voice and someone would have gotten nicely acquainted with my dagger.
I open my left eye and look up at him.
"Hello, Link."
He sits down next to me, a bit too close for me.
But I'm not telling him that.
He turns his head to look at me.
"I thought you went into town with the guys, Tetra.."
I tilt my head upward, identifying the constellations and naming them silently.
"Nah. Didn't feel like it." I shrug.
"Oh."
Silence. We sit there quietly for a while..
And then he slips his hand into mine, very slowly. Cautiously, almost.
Oh boy, I think, here we go. I'm probably going to slit his throat.
I don't.
Instead I blush like some idiotic little wussy town girl.
"Um." I manage. Hah, I thought I was blushing? He looks like a bottle of that potion he always carries around.
And it's quiet again for a moment.
Almost before realizing what I'm doing, I lean over and kiss him gently on the lips.
My brain is chaos.
Part of me is screaming at me to stop what I'm doing, drop him over the cliff, and run for it.
Another part is dancing around with glee that I've finally realized I like him.
A final section of my brain tells them to shut up and let them enjoy this.
They comply.
