Some days had passed since Midna started living in Ordon. Construction on her house was well underway, and nearly completed. In the meantime, she stayed with Rusl, Uli and their children in a spare room they had recently installed on the house.

The house was being built off near Sera, Hanch and Beth's house, much like the others, and like Link's, a basement was also being installed.

Midna was really enjoying herself, living a pretty simple life in a small farming town that she grew to find quite charming. She did miss living in the Twilight Realm at times, but she wasn't regretting her decision one bit.

Since living here, she soon apted to wearing Ordonian clothing. She wore a dark blue shirt, black pants, and a light blue obi tied around her waist with a tie that matched her fiery orange-red hair.

She was also really good with the village children, playing with them and amusing them with some stories and her magic.

Everyone in the village warmed up to Midna and welcomed her with open arms. She was kind and good to them in return, helping them out with something if they ever needed it. Ilia though, had a light discomfort about her when Midna was around, but managed to be welcoming none the less.

Link still continued to work for Fado when he needed it, and it was a lot easier for him these days since he'd grown a lot stronger since his journey. He even helped Fado with some ideas on how to properly run the ranch. Midna often watched, and helped him out until he would be done for the day.

The two of them spent a lot of time together, walking around together, working on things, or just sitting about someplace and enjoying the day or night. Not one day went by where they didn't say "I love you" to each other.

On one particular day, Link had just finished helping Fado out for the day and was going over to where Midna was sitting and watching on the fence.

"Don't you ever get bored just sitting there and watching me?" Link asked, dusting off his tunic. He still continued to wear his Hero's Garb, since he really liked it and felt naked without it on. Plus, they were comfortable. He even continued to wear the silly hat.

"Nope!" Midna grinned, getting down from the fence. "I know it doesn't take you long, and that when you're done, you're all mine. Makes the waiting worth it."

Link chuckled. "So it's not to watch me kick goat butt?"

"Please!" Midna laughed, bringing her arms around him. "I'd seen you kick more butt on our enemies than anyone around, I think that seeing you herding or wrestling goats is nothing. So are you going to take me back to your place where we can make love...?" Her tone was low and seductive as she smirked lightly.

"W-What?!" Link cried, his cheeks turning bright red.

Midna grinned and laughed. "I'm just kidding, Link! I had to do that, your face is just too priceless sometimes, it really is. But seriously, you're going to take me back to your place and make me dinner. I'm starving." The two of them had dinner together almost every night, since Midna sometimes dined with Rusl and Uli and Colin, sometimes joined by Link.

A little relieved, yet slightly disappointed, Link managed a smile. "Sure, Midna. My house is your house. What do you want for dinner tonight?"

"Oh, I could really go for your amazing Cucco medallions brazed in that amazing peppercorn sauce with a side of steamed vegetables in Hylian garlic." Midna said, licking her lips. "Your cooking is the best I have ever had."

"Don't say that!" Link blushed as he led her back to the village. Midna came up beside him and held his hand, making him blush a little more. "I...I had to learn how, and I'm not so bad. But everyone else is better."

"You underestimate yourself a little much." Midna said, shaking her head. "But hey, I love Uli's cooking, it's scrumptious and I could eat it every meal! But yours really has a personal touch to it, when I eat it, I know you made it."

Link smiled a little. "Well...thanks, Midna. That means a lot."

"No need to thank me! Let's get to your house and eat already! I'm a very hungry woman right now, Link!"

Link just laughed along with her the rest of the way to his house.

--~~--~~--

"So is it done yet?" Midna asked teasingly.

"Almost..." Link murmurred, wiping some sweat from his forehead. "We should be done by tomorrow."

"Don't you worry, Miss Midna." Rusl agreed, nodding toward the house.

It had now been about two weeks now since Midna had lived in Ordon, and her house was already in great progress. It had been tricky finding a location, but with the help of some of Hyrule's finest architects, which Zelda had sent herself, they had managed to find a good spot that was a bit secluded like Link's house was, but was still close to the village, and to Link's house. In the meantime of her house being built, Link took Midna into Castle Town to go look at some fabrics, materials for things such as curtains, furniture, cooking items and utensils, cookbooks, and some books.

Midna still often stayed the nights at Rusl and Uli's house, which was fine with her. She liked their little family, and babysitting Lina while they were gone out and also training and playing with Colin. As hard as it was to believe, Midna really liked kids. In the past, she had always liked them, but didn't want much to do with them. She knew she would eventually have to have them to keep her bloodline going, of course. But now being surrounded by Colin, Talo, Malo, Beth and now Lina, she was more used to being around kids and was actually a very good mother and caregiver figure. She and Link would play with them, train them, and all go for walks in the woods. It was a lot of fun, she actually enjoyed it.

Every now and then, when Midna would hold Lina, she would imagine what it would be like if she had children of her own...with Link. The thought made her blush, but she liked the idea. Although they had just recently started dating and hadn't taken the time to discuss the idea of getting married and having children, they knew deep down it was a likely possibility. At least they hoped so. She wanted to marry Link more than anything, and to have children with him...well, her life would be just perfect. More than perfect, even. It made her look forward to their future together. Their lives together.

Now here they were, so far. Living close to each other in Ordon. Still some ways to go, but they knew the journey there would be wonderful.

"Hey Link, why don't you go take a break? We can take over." Rusl said to Link.

"Oh, no. It's okay, I can-"

"Go on, Link." Bo said, smiling. "You and Midna could use some time alone."

"Yeah, come on." Midna agreed, coming up behind Link and bringing her arms around. "I could use a little alone time with my favourite hero..." She purred sweetly.

Link blushed, but nodded and placed his hammer and other tools down before he gave an appreciative glance toward the others. He took Midna by the hand and they went off to Ordon Spring. They could be alone, and still close by just in case anything happened. What they didn't know was that Uli had afterward gone ahead and told the children not to disturb them.

"You work too hard, Link." Midna said, snuggling against him as they dipped their ankles into the cooling, clear, pure water. "You need a break."

Link chuckled and brought an arm around Midna. "Yeah, I guess so."

"No, you do." Midna insisted, smiling in a mischievous way. "So you can spend more time with me. Don't you want to do that?"

"Of course." Link said, turning and bringing his arms around her waist. "If I had my way, I would spend every waking moment with you. Especially..." He could not finish his sentence.

But Midna understood. She brought her arms around his neck, looking down at him with warm, caring eyes. "Oh Link, I'm still so sorry about that. I don't know what came over me... But I'm glad I didn't destroy the Mirror of Twilight. If I could do this all over again, I wouldn't change a thing. You really are the best thing that ever happened to me, I mean it. If it weren't for you...well, Zant would have taken over all of Hyrule as well as the Twilight Realm. If I had not followed after those Bulblins...if I had not seen them take the kids...if I had not seen you transform into the Divine Beast spoken in a legend passed down by my people, none of this would have ever happened. We wouldn't even be here right now."

Link smiled, bringing up a hand to caress her cheek. "You're right. If you hadn't found me in that cell, deep down in the Hyrule Castle Dungeons just beyond the waterway system...well, I'd still probably be down there, confined as a wolf for the rest of my life. Or even worse, dead and then Hyrule succumbing to the Twilight for good. Thank the Goddesses for you, Midna. I love you so much."

"I love you too." Midna said, and closed the gap between their lips.

The Hero brought her closer, rising up a little on his tiptoes to reach her better. Their tongues met, and she brought one hand to play with his hat and hair. Link chuckled between their mouths and caressed her back, sometimes playing with strands of her hair that got in the way. Midna moaned softly into their mouths and pressed her body closer to his, desperate for more delicious contact.

This surprised Link a little, but he melted into it and kissed Midna deeper, with her eagerly responding as their tongues battled wildly for dominance, which of course Midna won.

Pulling away for air, Link looked up at her with a loving smile, which Midna returned. Even without words they expressed how much they loved each other, and they understood well. Especially with some experience of Link being unable to talk when he would be in wolf form.

After some moments, Midna came in and kissed him again, this time deeper and more passionate. Her hand came up to the back of his head, taking off his hat and tossing it onto the ground beside them, where she proceeded to run her fingers through his hair, holding him closer. Link was used to her being dominating, to which he never protested, but she was getting awfully frisky today. Why did she seem a little more...into it than before? Was it something he'd said? He wasn't new to making out with her, but strangely she seemed a few steps over normal.

Link pulled back from her and reached a little lower to lay butterfly soft kisses along her neck, to which Midna moaned softly in appreciation, tilting her head around to give him better access.

"Link...oh Link..." She moaned, holding him closer to her. All this only etched her desire for him even more.

Chuckling a little, Link couldn't help but think how adorable she was. Midna was a truly dominating woman, and often initiated things in their love moments, but of course she let him take charge here and there. It was funny how relaxed and submissive she would become when he'd take over. He loved it, it was fun going one way or the other.

"Link..." Midna said softly, and then held him closer, kissing him deeply again. This time she brought him closer to the ground, laying him down there and straddling his hips, holding his wrists down on either side of his head.

Link's eyes bulged out of his head and could now only sit still as Midna kissed him in ravashing fashion. What was she trying to do!? He knew very little about love making...but was that what she was trying to do?

"M-Midna!" Link finally broke away from her. "Midna...what are you doing?"

Blinking, the former Twilight Princess realized what she'd done and let go of his wrists, carefully getting off of him to sit on the sandy shore of the spring. She'd been lost in the moment, lost in her desire, and just wanted to go through with getting him to make love to her. It was hard, since she wanted him so much, but had promised herself to wait until they got married. That is...if he wanted to.

There was no question or doubt in Midna's mind, she would marry Link right this second if she could! She didn't want anyone else. The very reason she chose to stay with him was so they could live a life together. No, she had made up her mind by now, she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. She hoped he felt the same way.

"Link I...I'm sorry." Midna said softly, looking away in shame. "I got so lost and caught up in...the moment that logic became a thing of the past in my mind."

Link blushed a little, sitting up beside her. He had no experience in this field, but now he had an idea of what she was trying to do. Of course, he didn't hate nor resent her for it. It was natural when you really loved someone, right? He may not have much knowledge of it, but he was aware in some ways.

"Midna, it's okay." Link assured her. "I'm not mad."

"Y-You're not?" Midna looked at him in surprise. "But I tried to take advantage of you, Link! You deserve better than that."

The Hero chosen by the Gods shook his head and took her hand in his. "Midna, you did not. You had the best intentions, and were acting upon your feelings. And I love you, so it wasn't as if it was one-sided, either. It's okay. We just should wait until we get married." Realizing what he'd said, he turned red to his ears and covered his mouth with his other hand. "Er...."

Midna blinked, and then gave a little smirk. "So...you want to marry me, Link?"

"Er...I...." Link mumbled, unsure of what to say. "Midna, I...I want to marry you, I really do! I just...."

"Just what?" Midna prompted him. She was loving every minute of this, teasing him was just an art. At the same time, the joy of him feeling the same way about the idea of them getting married was overcoming her.

"I...want to...propose, first." Link confessed.

Midna giggled and hugged him. "Aw Link, you're too cute! All right, that sounds fair. Of course, you already know my answer."

"Can I still do it anyway?"

"Of course, silly!"

The two of them laughed and hugged each other even more, trying to calm down, but it was hard to stop laughing.

"Hey! Link! Look at me!" Midna made the silliest face imaginable. "I'm a funny face!"

Link doubled over in laughter, clutching his sides as he tried to steady himself, but he fell to the ground on his back, still laughing. Midna giggled uncontrollably and then crawled over on top of him like a cat. Link calmed down from laughing and then brought his arms around her, stroking her hair as Midna cuddled into him.

"I love you, Link." Midna cooed.

"I love you too." Link smiled.

Yep, without any doubt or question in his mind, this was where he wanted to be. Living his life in Ordon with Midna, he couldn't have asked for anything better.
