A/N: Okay, talk about a HIATUS on this story! 2 years since this has been updated…what a time it's been. I've been growing and learning, and exploring the world. The time I've had to write has been very limited, and to my faithful readers, I owe a deep apology. I will try my best to update this story as much as possible, though I am approaching my senior year of high school. Please enjoy this, as it was sitting on my desktop dusting unfinished for two years.
R&R!
Angel
It never occurred to me the truth of what an angel was. Were they dressed in white with a halo around their head? Did they come from the high heavens and descend to tell me my fate? It seemed like angels were the perfect people, and if that were so, then I knew he was my angel.
He wasn't clad in white, but green. He did not wear a halo, but wore a long hat atop his head. His waist wasn't belted with gold; rather it was belted with a sword brandished with leather. His eyes were an angelic shade of blue.
He was my Hylian angel.
I dreamt of him while I was locked away in the tower. I dreamt of my angel. He had no wings, but his bravery was a sort of extension of his soul. He belonged to me.
He defeated evil after evil, killing, murdering, and destroying for me. All in the name of Hyrule. All in the name of saving his princess. The noble fool denied to be beaten; he denied leaving me there for all of eternity.
For that, I am eternally grateful.
At first we were young, and I pitied that young fool. He came so valiantly, sacrificing his all for me. When I was young, I was naïve, and I didn't understand the love that I would develop for this blonde haired knight.
The years went on, and over and over I was captured by a dastardly horrible monster.
Over and over, he would return to me.
Our love grew, and I knew he would be mine.
With that, I stared up at the stars as my angel lay next to me. I smiled at him, as I gently lace my fingers between his. He smiles back, and continues to go on about his quests over all the years. We are still young, but our love seems so old, so rich, and so plentiful, that I beg the heavens to never let it end. I beg them to never take back my Hylian angel.
"Are you okay, fair princess?" he whispers. I blink at him, and it seems my dazed look has caught his attention.
"I am fine, Link." I smile as I adjust my body to see the stars in his eyes. They reflect with a gentle shimmer, and he touches my face.
"You look beautiful, Princess Zelda." He leans his forehead on mine as we stare into the night sky. I wish I could return the gesture without seeming strange, so I simply smile, and close my eyes. The ambiance of the night is gentle, yet relentless. I feel the ebb and flow of our love rustle the trees. Our souls instantly connect, and I feel my lips press softly against his. Our lips dance in the shadows, and I smile. I wrap my arms around him, and feel enveloped by his warmth.
When I reopen my eyes, I see that his are shut. I touch his face softly and he opens his bright blue orbs that reflect my darker ones.
"Princess, I…" his cheeks redden slightly, and I shake my head.
"Link, please." I said with a gentle smile on my face. I lay my head on his lap and close my eyes once more, resting. He places a sweet kiss on my forehead and whispers in my ear.
"I will always protect you…" he said softly. I nod, and feel a tiring daze wash over me. He hums a memorable lullaby.
And slowly…
I drift off into a peaceful sleep.
He is my knight, my savior, and my very own guardian angel.
A/N: It was a bit of a weak drabble, but I hope you enjoyed it. The next installment will be Apology. How fitting after my two year hiatus! Until you read again, ciao!
