Chapter one didn't get that good a response tbh ;-;

Guys, I know it sounds really desperate, but follows/favourites/reviews really really make me happy and give me more motivation to write.

I know Pipit x Malon is a little weird aha, but Malon is one of my faves, and I just think her and Pipit would be really cute together ouo

Uh, yeah. Onwards and Upwards, I guess?

Malon's POV for this chapter!

"Miss Lon! Miss Forest! Why are you so late to the lesson?" Madame Gerudo, who teaches language class, shouts as me and Saria run into the classroom.

"Sorry Miss. But the bell hasn't actually gone yet-" Saria begins, but Madame Gerudo interrupts her.

"The lesson starts when I say it starts, Miss Forest. Now take your seat."

Saria rolls her eyes and trudges towards her seat next to the window. I dump my bags down and sit next to Midna.

"That's a bit unfair." She hisses, "The lesson technically hasn't started yet."

"I know, right." I sigh, taking my textbook out of my bag, "It's going to go on my record that I was late, now!"

"Hmm. Well, anyway. I have some really exciting news. Bascia-"

"Miss Night! Are you talking?" Madame's head snaps round to us.

"No…" Midna says, uncertainly.

"Well. Don't make me catch you talking again."

"Uh- Sorry, Miss."

Madame Gerudo turns back to her scribbling on the whiteboard (Something about tenses. I have no idea what she's talking about), and Midna writes something down and shoves a note into my hand.

'Oi, can I take my friend and 3 of his friends to bowling tonight? You don't have a choice, actually, I already said yeah."

Midna stares impatiently as I read her loopy green handwriting (She has this sparkly gel pen she insists on using), and pretends to be taking notes about the class.

'Um, yeah, I guess. He, eh? Wink, wink, my smelly friend.'

Midna frowns as her eyes dart over my reply, and almost angrily picks her pen back up; 'NO, just no. Nothing is happening between us. Bloody hell, you're such a hopeless romantic. Anywayyyyy, his friends are called Link, Dark, and Pipit.'

'Dark's a bit of a stupid name.'

'Meh.'

Midna stares defiantly at the front of the room, blocking me out. I don't know why. I was only joking when I said there was something going on between her and her friend.

When the lesson finishes, she shoves her books in her bag and, crossing her arms, waits impatiently for me to pack my stuff away.

"Well? Do you plan on getting to Biology any time soon?" She snaps.

"I don't know why you're in such a mood with me!" I snap back, "I was only joking."

"Well, it's never going to happen. So."

"You don't want it to though, do you?"

Midna narrows her eyes, "No. Don't be stupid. I can have friends without, y'no, fancying them and all that crap."

"Okay." I sigh, "I'm sorry for offending you, your highness."

"…Yeah, fine. Sorry for being a moody git."

"It's okay."


8 hours later, we are all at Zelda's house, getting ready for bowling. Zelda and Saria are demanding information about the mysterious 'friend', but I decide not to mention him after earlier.

Midna seems to be really annoyed with this attention, but she answers their questions anyway.

"His name Is Sheik. He's a Sheikah." She begins, before Saria snorts and says,

"That is the most unoriginal name ever."

Midna frowns and goes back to brushing her hair.

"Guys, this is awesome news though! Four boys? Four of us? As long as they don't look or act like moblins, then I think we could go on the best quadruple date to the ball ever!" Zelda grins. "Besides, we all look ah-may-zing."

I laugh a little, but then I realise she's actually right. We do look pretty spectacular – Midna is wearing some skinny black jeans (No dresses, ever), a dark blue top with white sequins spelling out TWILI, and black heels – her auburn hair, which she spent about 2 hours straightening, is tied in two bunches which fall down her back. Zelda, ever the princess, is wearing a baby pink dress, sparkly silver tights (Pantyhose? IDK, I'm not American. Bye bye.) and gold pumps. Her hair looks amazing (THANKS TO MY INCREDIBLE SKILL.) Saria is wearing a green playsuit, brown high-heeled boots and a big green bow in her jaw length hair (Guess her favourite colour.) Of course, Saria isn't one for dressing up and would probably rather be in a nerdy brown knitted cardigan, so this is a massive effort from her. I am wearing a white and blue halter neck dress, blue heels (They used to be Midna's. My dad would never willingly buy me heels, not gonna lie) and a few bangles up my arms. My hair doesn't do anything snazzy, so I just tied it in a high ponytail.

"Does my hair look okay?" Midna asks, for the fifteenth time that evening.

"Yes, Midna, it looks fine." Saria huffs, clearly tired of this question.

"Girls!" Zelda's mum calls, "It's time to go!"

"Coming mum!" Zelda shouts down the stairs, and we all grab our bags, and, in Midna's case, twenty hair clips and mascara.


We arrive at the bowling alley about 20 minutes later. After we've reluctantly given over our fabby fab shoes and swapped them for the horrifically ugly brown bowling shoes, we look for Lane 22.

"Look!" Midna grins, "There's Sheik! And, uh, friends."

"Hey, Midna!" A blonde Sheikah, presumably Sheik, says, "Are these your friends?"

"Uh- Yeah! Yeah, this is Zelda, Malon and Saria."

"Hi." He smiles, "This is Pipit, Link, and Dark."

Link has dark blonde hair and blue eyes; Pipit has brown hair and freckles; and Dark has black hair and red eyes.

"Come on then!" Dark says, and we head off to fetch the bowling balls.

Saria has turned a curious shade of red, and looks a bit flustered as she stares after Dark.

"Awh, does someone have a little crush?" I tease, nudging her.

"Uh- well- Uhm, do you think Dark is interested in eco systems?"

"Eco what a what what?"

"Um, never mind. Let's go." She says, uncomfortably, and we follow the group.

It's really awkward at first, to be completely honest. There's a lot of uncomfortable silence, until Saria suddenly blurts out, "So, uh, did you hear the government are trying to preserve more trees?"

Everyone looks a bit baffled, and Saria squirms awkwardly in her seat, before Dark says, "Really?"

"Yup!" Saria says, sitting back up, "They're trying to plant 3 for every 1 that's cut down!"

"That's awesome!" Dark grins, "I just moved here from the country, so eco stuff has always kind of appealed to me."

"Really?" Saria's eyes widen, "I'm descended from the Kokiri tribe!"

"That's so cool!" Dark gasps, leaning forwards, "I've always being really interested in history and stuff!"

"Let's leave the hippies to it." Pipit laughs, standing up, "Who's go is first?"

"Mine is!" Zelda leaps up, but Link has just come back with a tray of drinks, and they spill all over him. Zelda squeaks and goes bright red. "I- I'm sorry! I wasn't looking- I mean, I didn't know you were- I don't- I'll get some paper towels!" She stutters, running off to the toilets. Link looks slightly confused.

"I'll… I'll go help." I mutter, before rushing after the blonde.

"Huh? Oh, hey Malon." She sighs, when she sees me.

"Are you alright?" I ask, watching as she angrily yanks the paper towels out of the container.

"No." She hisses, "I completely screwed up! Did you see how cute he is? And then I freaking spilt bloody coke and lemonade all over him!"

"Zelda, I don't think he really minded-"

"It doesn't matter! Oh, I look like such an idiot!"

"Zelda, you've got at least 30 paper towels in your hands."

"What?" She glances down, "Oh. Oh, I don't want to go back! I messed it all up!"

"You'll be fine, princess." I roll my eyes, using her nickname, "if it helps, he stared after you for quite a while."

"Yeah, because I look so bloody stupid!" She huffs, "Come on."

We walk back, and Zelda awkwardly shoves the paper towels into Link's hand. "Sorry."

"It's alright." He smiles, "It wasn't your fault."

"Well, it kind of was-" Midna interrupts, before I elbow her rib. "Ow!"


"HAH! I won! I won! You're all losers!" Midna laughs, swinging her bag around as we walk into the car park.

"Midna, how can you be acting drunk when you only had lemonade?" Pipit grins from beside me.

"I'm not acting drunk." The twili giggles, "Sure, I had a lot of sugar intake, but what's life without a risk!"

"Midna, drinking too much lemonade is not a risk." Sheik laughs, "But clearly, leaving Saria and Dark to talk about hippie stuff was. Where are they, anyway?"

"Back there." Pipit squints, "A bit behind Zelda and Link. Oh look, Link's given Zelda his jacket! What an original, non-cliché move."

"It's sweet, though." I say, "I ship it."

"Ship?" Sheik looks confused.

"Oh god." Pipit says, "Sheik, if you don't know what ship is, run. Run, and never find out."

Sheik looks genuinely scared, and I can't help but laugh.

"OI! HURRY UP!" Midna screams to Zelda, Link, Saria and Dark, "YOU'RE SO SLOW!"

"Sorry!" Zelda shouts, running up to us, dragging a very bewildered Link with her. "I don't think Saria and Dark heard. Probably too busy talking about the square root of a tree. Wait, that's maths."

"Did you just accidentally make a pun?" Link laughs, gazing at her, "That takes skill."

"Don't pun-ish us, Zelda." Pipit says.

"You killed it." Sheik declares.


"Oi, Malon." Midna says, her mouth full of chicken sandwich, "Pip-"

"Oh, that's gross, Midna. Swallow please."

Midna glares at me, but swallows her mouthful, and repeats, "I said, Pipit says do we want to meet up after school?"

"Ye-"

"I already said yes."

For some reason, as Midna walks away, the only thought running through my brain is how come she got Pipit's number, and I didn't.

I KNOW THAT WAS SHORT SORRY BYE ILY
