Here it is as promised chapter 2! Enjoy!


Chapter 2

When I finished packing I walked out into the hall to see Zelda waiting for me. "Hey," I said as I walked out.

Zelda smiled. "Hey yourself. You ready?"

I nodded. "Yes, are you?"

She nodded then lifted her suitcase –well more of bag- then started walking towards the door. I followed her and on our way out I heard Pipit call to us from behind. "Hey Link, Zelda."

We stopped and faced him. "What's up Pipit?"

"Karane and I were wondering if we could possibly move down to the surface with you or at least as well as you."

Zelda and I look at each other then back to Pipit. "Well that's up to you guys. We don't mind if other people join us it's just up to them." I explained

Pipit nodded. "Okay, so is that a yes?"

Zelda rolled her eyes. "Yes, it is."

Pipit sighed a huge sigh of relief. "Thank you guys so much!" He then ran off.

"That was unusual." Zelda whispered.

"I guess in the sense that he thought he had to ask, yeah." I said.

"Well maybe he thought we'd just want to be alone."

I shrug "Let's just go."

We walked over to the tower that I had caused light to emit during my journey. We walked over to the dock to dive off. Groose was standing there seemingly waiting for us. He smiled once he saw us.

"Hey took you guys long enough."

I rose an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

He shook his head. "Nothing just meant you took longer than I expected."

I looked at him for a moment. "Well see you later I guess." I said.

Zelda nodded. "Yeah, see you later Groose." She walked forward and dove. I heard her whistle and saw her bird fly up with her on its back.

I was about to sprint when Groose placed a hand on my shoulder. I turned to him. "You need something Groose?" I asked.

"Just wanted to say I left you two a surprise down there."

"What is it?"

"You'll have to go down there and find out." He smiled.

"Okay," I wasn't sure what to feel about that. I turned around about to sprint again when I heard Pipit again.

"Link!" I turned to face him.

"What?" I hope he couldn't hear the annoyance in my voice. I just wanted to go to the surface and spend some alone time with Zelda.

"Karane and I decided that we will move to the surface just tomorrow."

I nodded. "Okay, see you then." I finally ran and dove off the dock.

I guess Zelda had been waiting a while because when I got back to Faron Woods she was tapping her foot. "Well you're finally done chatting."

"Sorry," I said. "I was kept up by Groose, then Pipit."

"I can guess Pipit, bur why Groose?"

"He said he left us a surprise down here."

"Oh, that must explain these." Zelda gestured to two mattresses.

"How'd he get those down here?" I ask baffled.

"Well considering that the mattresses at the knight academy have feathers stuffed in them it probably wasn't too hard."

"Yeah but they aren't ours are they?"

"Not unless he switched some around so we wouldn't know the wiser. Besides it's not like their infested with lice or anything."

I nodded it was true. It didn't matter if they were our mattresses from the knight academy or not.

"Well I said I'm going to go out and see if I can find someone to help us build a house."

Zelda nodded. "And I'll start making some lunch."

"How?"

"The tree inside the temple?" she said.

"Oh yeah! That'll work." I remembered how I had planted that tree using the gate of time. "Okay, see you in a bit!" I said as I started to walk to the woods.

"Wait, take this." She pulled something out of her suitcase. It was the practice sword from the knight academy.

"What's this for?" I asked.

"I don't know just some protection just in case something goes wrong."

I nodded. Even though it wasn't possible for there to be monsters anymore with Demise being defeated and all.

"Thanks," I said.

She leaned in and kissed me on the cheek. "Stay safe."

I smiled and felt my face getting a little hot. She never kissed me before. I turned and walked into the forest.

I walked through the Faron Woods for several minutes before I found the person I was looking for. Gorko the Goron. I walked up to him I had get his help on building a house. Or Shelter. Whatever you wanted to call it.

"Hey Gorko!" I said.

"Oh, hey buddy!" he said. "What brings you to this neck of the…woods"

"Nice pun, anyway I need your help."

"My help? Whatever for?"

"Are you good at building?"

"Yeah, I guess so…"

"Good I need your help building a shelter for Zelda and me"

He seemed to think about this for a moment. "What do I get out of it?"

I sighed. "250 Rupees?"

"350" he said back.

"275"

"300"

I thought about that I knew that he wouldn't go any lower, and that was the next one I would go to. "Deal," I held out my hand to shake. We shook on it. "Great, do you need time to get resources or friends to help build?"

"Yes, it'll take a couple hours to gather everything."

"How many?" I asked

"Hm….five at most."

"And the least?"

"Three"

I sighed it was the best we were going to get. "Okay. Oh, and here." I gave him 150 of his 300 rupees.

"What's this? I thought we agreed on 300"

"We did, 150 now and 150 after the shelter is built."

His expression turned a little hard. "Fair enough"

"See you then."

"Wait where do you want it?"

"Want what?

"Your house"

"I guess near the statue of the goddess."

He nodded. "Okay, buddy see you then."

I ran to the sealed temple I had found someone to build our house! I had to tell Zelda.

When I got there Zelda was in a heap on the ground. "Zelda!" I ran over to her as fast as I could.

Zelda I shook her. "Zelda wake up!"

She stirred. "Oh…my head."

"What happened?"

"I don't know the master sword just started glowing. So out of curiosity I touched it. Then I just felt cold and fell to the ground."

"Oh no, my dream….."

Then Zelda broke into a huge grin. Then she started laughing.

"What? What's so funny?"

"I'm just kidding."

"What?"

"I was just joking around. Haven't you noticed that the master sword is all the way over there." She pointed across the room.

I blushed. My face probably as red as the fruit she had in a basket next to her. "Zelda!"

"I'm sorry I only tripped, then I heard the door open so I just stayed on the ground."

I could feel tears swelling in my eyes. I moved over to her and grabbed her into a tight hug. "Please never, EVER do that again."

"I'm sorry," she hugged me back.

"I was so scared that my dream had started to come true. I was so scared."

"I know I'm sorry, I won't do it again."

We just sat there hugging for several minutes.


How you guys liking it so far? Like it? Hate it? Reviews are appreciated. I know it's mainly focused on romance right now but I'm thinking of adding in some action next chapter or maybe a mini adventure, not sure. The next part won't be out for a while since I have work tomorrow then I'm going camping Thursday and I'll get back (exhausted) on Saturday.
