Midna's Rescue Chapter 2
Ilia rushed towards Link when she saw him walk into Ordon Village and hugged him as tight as she could, just the way Zelda had.
"Link, oh Link you're back!" She cried, overjoyed.
Link; surprised; fell onto his back, Ilia on top of him.
"Oh my goodness! I am so sorry!" She apologized.
Link laughed, "No, no, don't worry about it. Its fine."
Ilia laughed awkwardly, "Well I missed you- Even though you only went to the castle." She stood up and nervously rubbed her arm.
He laughed more as she helped him up.
"It was only an hour's trip." He smiled, "But thank you for caring."
"Link?" she smiled, "What color are my eyes if you look," she stepped forward, "real," she stepped closer, "close?"
Their foreheads were touching now.
"Well, they're green. Like they always are." He said simply, barely feeling Ilia's almost magnetic pull.
She laughed softly, and stroked his cheek.
"Are you thinking about her right now?" Ilia whispered.
"Midna?" Link questioned wondering how Ilia knew of her.
"Zelda. Are you thinking about her?" she said, her words flowing like silk.
"No." he said, scared to answer any other way.
"This is her charm..." Ilia said, clutching the charm with it still around his neck.
She pulled it off him in one fluid motion, not taking her eyes off of his.
"Its beautiful. It matches my eyes, don't you think?" She whispered slyly.
"Ilia, I need that."
"What, you afraid your lady's gonna be jealous when I'm wearing it?" She giggled.
"Ilia, stop." Link said firmly.
She touched the tip of his nose, and fastened the chain around his neck again.
Her lips brushed his, but lightly. She pulled away to look him dead in the eye.
"I was only playing." She smiled, and with that she pushed his chest with her finger, and skipped off.
Link shook his head as he watched her scamper off.
Suddenly a voice appeared behind him.
"Crazy, isn't she?" Colin said as soon as she was out of sight.
Link turned to face him.
"No kidding." He sighed and rubbed the back of his neck.
"All she does is talk about you..." Colin laughed.
"Yeah, that would make three girls."
Link sighed as he walked to his home, all three of the girls swarming through his mind.
"Am I really that appealing?" He asked no one, as he stood in the middle of the forest, alone.
