I'm sorry it took so long to update. And about the cliffhanger. :O
For the third freaking time that day, Link was staring at me with his mouth wide open, his eyes big. I could feel the tips of my ears turning red as I stared back. Tears streamed down my face. I had finally told him something I'd sworn never to tell him. I'd told him that I loved him. And he knew it was the truth, and that I wasn't just talking about the fondness I had for others. I loved him, and now he knew.
Embarrassed out of my mind, I put my face in my hands. He knew now. Now all I had to do was wait for his shock to turn into revulsion. How could the hero of the land ever even consider the stupid princess who couldn't save her people? I was weak when he was strong. I'd allowed my land to fall into ruins.
Instead of leaving, like I expected him to, he came and sat beside me, wrapping his arms around me. This was even worse than if he had left. This was nothing more than the pity of a hero to a princess.
"Don't… please." My voice was surprisingly strong, considering my tears. Link hesitated for a moment, then slowly got up and left. "Thank you." I called to his back. He didn't look back at me he left the room.
I curled into a ball on my bed, staring blankly at the wall. Maybe we could be the same after this. Maybe.
Two Days Later
The next few days were a living hell for Link. He would absently ask Zelda a question, forgetting about the potions effects, and constantly make awkward situations. But at least now he knew what to do.
He was going to tell Zelda the truth about everything. He'd found out that the potion he'd gotten was actually not a Fun Potion, but one that made the drinker tell nothing but the total truth. Whoops.
Taking a deep breath, Link walked into Zelda's room. He had a feeling that it might be the last time he would be going in there.
Okay, this chapter was too short to. And this is another cliffhanger. I'm a horrible person.
