Chapter 4

~December 21~

Zelda and Link went back inside and found that dinner was almost ready.

"Can I help you with anything?" Zelda asked Athena.

"If you like you could me set the table." Athena replied

"Alright" Zelda responded as she set five plates around the small round table.

In the living room Link, Saria and Bradley went through the Christmas boxes finding decorations.

"Look!!" yelled Saria, "I found our stockings!!!"

"Mine's got a hole in it.." Bradley said looking at the old stocking.

Zelda walked in the living room and looked at Bradley's stocking.

'I'm not the best sewer in the world, but I bet I could fix that for you." Zelda said smiling

"Really?!?! Cool!" Bradley replied excited.

Link watched with a smile on his face. His brother and sister loved Zelda and he knew he did too. *The goddess's must have been watching over to me to let me be able to share the holidays with Zelda* he though to himself.

"Dinner's ready!" called Athena from the kitchen.

Saria then took Zelda hand and walked to the kitchen. "Will you sit by me?" Saria asked giving her puppy eyes.

Zelda smiled at her. "I'd love to sit by you!"

"I wanna sit by Zelda too!!" Bradley said.

"She's got two sides Brad, so you can sit on her other side." Link said Pulling out Zelda chair for her, then walked around the table to the chair across from her.

"Thank-you Link." Zelda said smiling across the table at him. Athena then carried out the rest of the food and put it on the table. "Who wants to pray tonight?" she asked looking at Saria and Bradley.

"I will." Volunteered Bradley

"We thank you goddesses for this food and for letting Zelda stay with us. Ahem."

They began eating and then suddenly they heard someone knocking on the door franticly.

"I'll get." Link said getting up and walking to the door. A few minutes later he came back with a worried expression on his face and Impa followed him.

"What wrong?" Zelda asked looking at both of them

"Your father has fallen very ill." Impa began

"Zelda.go to him, you can come back and visit us when he's better." Link told her.

"Ok," she then turned towards Links family. "Thank-you so much for everything, I promise I will be back." She said as Saria and Bradley run up to her and gave her hugs.

"Bye.." they both said

Link walked Zelda outside and hugged her. Then he watched the women he loved mount a horse and ride off. He didn't go back inside until she was out of site, then he whispered, ".Please come back soon."

~December 22~

Zelda sat in a chair by her father's bed waiting for a doctor to arrive. She been sitting there all night had had many fallen asleep once for like an hour. She just sat there and watched her father cough in sleep. She wiped his face with a cloth, he had a high fever.

"Zelda..?"

She looked over at her father. "Daddy, your awake, the doctor on his way don't worry."

"When did you get home, I though you were having dinner with that nice boy, Link?"

"I was, but when I found out you were sick, I came home to see you."

"You didn't have to."

" Its fine. You need to save your energy your very week."

"She's right," said a voice at the door, it was Raura, the doctor, "I've already been told of your condition, so I'm going to get you some medication as soon as possible."

"Thank-you sir." Zelda said

"As for you, m'lady, you should get some rest, you don't wanna get sick yourself." Raura told Zelda. "Alright, I'll do that."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Link sat outside playing his wooden ocarina, when his mother walked outside and sat beside him.

"Hi mom." he said setting down his ocarina

"You love her, don't you?"

Link looked at his mother wondering where this conversation was going to lead to.

"All I'm trying to say is maybe she's need someone right now. Saria and Bradley will understand. Anyways, I've got to go start dinner."

Link watched his mother go inside then her words got him thinking. He was quite all through dinner because he couldn't stop thinking about his mother's words.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"She's in her fathers room right this way Link." Impa said leading Link to Zelda

"Thank-you."

Zelda looked up and saw Link standing in the doorway.

"Link?! What are you doing here at this time of night?! You could have been hurt riding over here, it's very late."

"I know, but I just wanted to see how you were doing, I was a little worried about you."

Impa decided to leave them alone. Zelda got up from the seat by her fathers bed and walked over to Link and hugged him. He cupped her chain in his hand and tilted her head towards his and gently kissed her. Zelda's father woke up at that same minute and saw them; he smiled and pretended to be asleep so they wouldn't know he saw. Finally, he though my daughter has fallen in love.
