"No... Epona can't fly... I don't think it's okay to cook Zoras... Stop eating my... Of course I don't know, I'm just a simple pelican..." Link mumbled as Zelda tried to wake him up. "Link, wake up already!" She said as she tried to push him out of bed. "The King's beard is a cat!" Link shouted when he hit the floor.

"What in Hylia's name do you dream about?" Zelda giggled as Link rubbed the back of his neck. "Random stuff, really. I actually have a pretty active imagination, believe it or not, Princess."

"Well, I made breakfast as best I could. Help yourself." There were three slices of bread and sliced bird-meat. "I know Urbosa left some basic stuff, but where did you get the meat Princess? I used the last of mine last night." Link said as he sat down ingrown to his plate. "I went out hunting, ran into a Lizalfos and cooked it." Link spit the meat out. "What?! But Lizalfos meat is poison to us, right, Princess?!" Zelda laughed. "Calm down, it's just poultry meat. You do know there's a shop right outside, right?"

His face turned slightly pink. "Of course I did... Not." She laughed some more until a sharp knock on the door interrupted her. Link ran and hid behind Zelda's curtains. Urbosa stood behind two of her guards. "Urbosa, what are you doing here, and with you're guard as well?" Urbosa rolled her eyes as she stepped inside after the women in front of her.

"They insist they accompany me everywhere, and they really wanted to meet the Princess Zelda of Hyrule." They both nodded, suddenly turning from fierce warriors to fan girls. "It is a true honor to meet you, Your Highness." One said. "Really, we don't get many nobles out here like yourself. Please let us know if you need anything at all, Your Highness."

The sound of a wooden cup falling and spilling cane from the curtains, the guards immediately dropping into their soldier-like seriousness again. "Who's there?" They advanced on the origin of the noise before a strange, high-pitched voice said: "Oh, dear. I've spilled water all over my top! Zely, could you be so kind as to get me a new set of cloths from my dresser?" Zelda tried to suppress a giggle as she went to grab the women's clothes and bring them to him.

"Thank you, Princess." He whispered when she put the clothes down on her bed. Before she went back out he grabbed her shoulder. "Um, Princess?" He asked her sheepishly. "Can you help me... Put in the top? Urbosa did it before, but I can't do it myself..." Zelda's face turned bright pink. "Alright, I'll help you..." she stepped outside the curtain. "If you all could excuse us, my, uh, cousin is very shy. If you could just step outside for a moment?"

The three walked outside while she went back in to find him already dressed in everything but the top. He put it on and turned around for her to button it. "So, I'm your cousin now, Princess?" He said. "Yes, and since you distracted me, Zely buttoned your top wrong." She said sarcastically.

Outside the curtain Urbosa smiled to herself. "Are quite done letting her dress you, Link?" She said loudly. Zelda stumbled out of the curtains, her face red. "What are you still doing in here?" Link followed behind. "What were you two doing in there?" She teased. "I was- He couldn't button his top and-" Urbosa held up a hand to silence her. "I'm only joking, Princess. Now, onto business. You won't be leaving today, there's been a Lynel sighting and everyone is ordered to stay in town. We don't know where this thing could be, so don't try to track it down and kill it yourself. The last thing we need is somebody getting lost in the desert." She looked pointedly at Link.

"But, on the bright side, you can stay for the festival tonight. I've had the clothing shop arrange to have anything you would like put on my account. Consider it a gift." And with that she left.

Link decided to let Zelda go clothes shopping while he checked out the other shops. After a long debate with a shopkeeper over what a reasonable price for an undersized hydromelon was, Zelda showed up with a package wrapped in burlap and tied with twine. She dropped it off at the house (as well as the half-priced hydromelon) and they made their way to the tavern for lunch.

They ate, payed, and agreed that Link's meals were better. By that time it was still noon, so they decided to watch sand-seal racing. It was fun enough, but they found catching wild seals outside town was a lot more entertaining. It amused Zelda, the way Link tried to sneak up on the creatures and jump at it, only for it to get away at the last second and cause him to face plant. It was odd to her that in less than a days time, her perspective on the boy could change so much.

By the time it was dusk, they headed back into town and went to the house to get ready for the festival. Zelda took the package she left on the counter and took it into the curtained off area.

Link sat at the table counting his supplies in his bag while Zelda changed. She parted the curtains and stepped out, with her new outfit on. "What do you think?" She asked. Link looked up from his bag and dropped the amber he was holding, breaking apart into several pieces as it hit the floor.

The top was similar to what other vai wore around town, except she had several golden armbands and a lower cut neckline. Instead of pants, she wore a blue skirt down to her ankles with slits up the sides to her knees. She had a diamond circlet from the jewelry shop as well."You- It looks nice, Princess." He said, blushing and snapping back to reality. She had already gone to pick up the amber pieces, making him jump down to help her. He picked up the rest before she could do anymore.

She stood up and dusted herself off. "Shall we?" Link opened the door for her wordlessly and they made they're way to the center of town. Bright lights illuminated the streets, and all around them people danced and chatted together. "Tonight, we should just relax and have fun."

"But, we've been doing that all day, Princess." Link replied sarcastically. "Is that- is that sarcasm? I didn't know the silent knight could be sarcastic." She shot back with a smirk. "You got me- I've been hit, by your witty remarks, Princess!" He fake grabbed his chest and pretended to be in pain.

"Oh, stop it you." She elbowed him, suddenly aware of how she was behaving like they were best friends. The weird thing, she thought, is that she didn't dislike the feeling. It felt natural, and she liked the easiness of conversation with him.

Maybe he wasn't as bad as she thought.

A/N So I guess this is the part where I talk about stuff. First off, I didn't really think anyone would like this story, so really, thank you to everyone who does. I am going to desperately try to upload chapters as often as possible, but so far I am only one chapter away from being left without pre-written material. Now comes the part where I tell you that I like when I get reviews, but I don't want to start pushing people to "Give me constructive criticism or I might get sad." and stuff like that. I love reviews, but don't go out of your way if you don't feel like you need to. I'm not bashing people who ask for reviews etc etc, it's their fic, not mine, but I kinda find it irritating when people do that after Every. Single. Chapter. I guess I should stop wasting you're precious time on Earth with this long authors note, so I'll just do the thing where I answer questions people have.

OnePunchFan8: Yeah, my pairings are always kinda random, but I have reasons that I don't feel like explaining. According to FandomWiki, the Gorons ate viewed as a non-gender race that use male pronouns, and in the OoT manga there are some Gorons that have more feminine qualities.

It may just be that most prefer being known as male, yet they still reproduce the same way other species do regardless. Trust me; I'm a nerd.

Bye peoples, see you whenever I feel like uploading. (Probably within the week. Who knows?)
