(A.N.) Hey guys, so this will probably be the speed of my updates but it may take a few extra days for depending on my summer class and work + RL stuff. Anyways here's chapter 4! It's completely in Zelda's POV (just this one time). Let me know what you think!

Disclaimer – I wish I owned The Legend of Zelda…but alas, I don't.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Requite

Chapter 4 – A Rush of Blood to the Head

[Zelda]

"It's Zelda."

There was a pause on the other end.

"Oh, Z-Zelda! H-Hey, what's up?" Link replied. He sounded nervous.

Zelda giggled internally, she thought it was cute when he acted embarrassed.

"Hey Link not much. I was just wondering if you were able to get started on that book we have to read for English class." Zelda asked. He made no sound so she could gauge his reaction. She wondered if he was disappointed that she only called him to ask about homework. Zelda hadn't told anyone, but since last year she had a secret crush on Link, though she wasn't sure how strong her feelings were since she hardly knew him. She did know a few things however. One was that she loved his messy blonde hair and blue eyes; second, she knew he was a nice kind hearted boy from the way he treated his friends and complete strangers at school; and lastly, she knew he had a body that looked like it was chiseled by the Goddesses themselves. How did she know that? One day after gym class she walked past the boy's locker room. Unfortunately (or fortunately in this case) the door had been propped open. As she walked by she saw Link changing and caught a glimpse of his chest. Only one thought crossed her mind at that point, "Holy Goddess! What a body!" Of course, Zelda wasn't superficial like that at all. She had gotten to like Link by the way he acted around others and how he always helped his friends and strangers.

"Oh, no I haven't gotten around to reading the first chapter yet. I actually just got back from work, sorry. What about you?" Link replied.

Zelda inwardly groaned, she had hoped he would have at least finished the first chapter. But she couldn't blame him if he was at work.

"Ah that's too bad. I haven't either since I just got home from cheer practice. Hey how about we meet up sometime this week after school and go over the first few chapters? After all our first quiz is on Tuesday."

"Yeah sure how about Friday? We can study at my place." Link replied.

"Yeah that's perfect. I don't have cheer practice that day so we can start after school gets over." Zelda said casually.

"Sounds good, I'll see ya later then. Bye Zelda." Link said, sounding cheerful.

Zelda smiled. Link was always so happy and nice, it felt good to have at least one friend like that.

"Ahem." Someone cleared their throat.

Zelda looked over at the doorway to see who it was. "Oh, hey there Impa." Zelda said, smiling as she spoke. Impa was giving Zelda a stone cold stare, anyone else would have been scared shitless but Zelda knew better. Impa had been her caretaker for as long as she could remember. Once her mother passed away from cancer Impa started acting more like her mother but also as a close friend. On the outside it might look like Impa was angry or always in a foul mood, but in reality she was really kind and loving towards Zelda.

"Who was that on the phone just now?" Impa asked. Zelda could hear the hint of suspicion coming from Impa's voice.

"Just a friend from school." Zelda replied coolly.

"A boy?" Impa suddenly asked.

There it was; Zelda was waiting for Impa to ask whether it was boy or not.

She sighed, "Yes it was a boy. His name's Link and we're partners in an English project."

Impa raised a suspicious eyebrow, "Well if he tries anything just let me know, I'll take care of him. And don't you go leading him on, you know what you're father would say."

Zelda rolled her eyes, "Oh my god Impa he's not going to try anything alright? And dad can say whatever he wants, when it comes right down to it I'm deciding for myself who I want to date, not him."

Impa merely sighed. She knew she wouldn't be able to get through to Zelda. Not once her mind was made up. She would have to look out for her like she always did.

"By the way," Impa started as she was about to leave the room, "There's someone here to see you."

Zelda looked over Impa already knowing who it was. She nodded and jumped off her bed. She quickly made her way through the upper hallway and down the long flight of curved stairs. Her dad was the mayor of Hyrule after all, and it was a pretty big city. It included the suburbs of Kokiri county, Lake Hylia county and Kakoriko county. Most kids went to Hyrule high school, being as big as it was. As such, they had a pretty big house and it was easy to get lost in it if you had never been there before. With three floors, two separate wings, three kitchens, twelve rooms each with its own private bath, two gardens outdoor pool and two hot tubs (one for Zelda and her friends), it was easily one of the biggest houses in the area. Zelda's own room was another story; she had a king-sized bed with a couch to the left and a bed-side table to the right. Across from the bed was a large table and mirror attached to the wall with a generously spacious walk-in closet to the left and a large full-sized bath to the right. To top it all off she had a balcony overlooking one of the gardens. The room was covered in pink and light blue.

Zelda finally made it to the front to door and found her friend in the sitting room.

"Hey there Midna!" Zelda said cheerfully as she gave her best friend a hug.

Midna grinned, "Hey Zelda. Sorry it took me so long to shower and change."

Zelda shook her head, "Naa, it's alright. C'mon let's go up to my room."

They made their way into Zelda's room, and Zelda plopped down on her bed.

"Mmmm, soooo comfy." She said, smiling in the process.

Midna smirked and opened up Zelda's laptop. Zelda's eyes grew wide as she realized she forgot to close out of something.

"Hey Zelda…what's thi-." Zelda tried to grab her laptop before Midna could finish her sentence, but she was faster.

"Whoa, something on here you don't want me to see?" Midna said, grinning evilly.

"No, of course not!" Zelda exclaimed, blushing as she tried to grab her laptop again.

Midna dodged her hands and sat down on the bed, "Now let's see here…"Midna began as she opened up the screen. She blinked twice; it definitely wasn't something she was expecting to see. There, on the computer, was Link's facebook page.

"Uhh…Zelda?' Was all Midna could say. She was honestly lost for words. Link was the last person she'd expect to be on Zelda's computer. She glanced through Link's profile as fast as she could before Zelda was finally able to grab her laptop.

"I just needed to find his phone number alright!" Zelda lied.

Midna smirked, "Really? Because it's not listed on his profile." Midna replied knowingly.

"Crap, how'd she look through his profile so fast?" Zelda thought to herself as she bit her lower lip.

Midna looked at Zelda for a moment before saying, "What's really going on Zelda? Why is that punks profile up on your computer?"

"He's not a punk alright? He's actually a really nice person once you get to know him!" Zelda said defensively.

Midna raised an eyebrow, "Oh ya? And how would you know that? Did you 'get to know him' recently?"

Zelda blushed , "No, but I just know he is. The way he acts at school, he's not like the other guys!" Zelda continued to defend Link.

Midna was taken aback by Zelda's rant; she had never done this before. She sighed and looked at Zelda, "What's going on Zelda? Don't tell me you actually like this guy?" Midna asked, fully expecting Zelda to say no.

"…yes." Was Zelda's reply.

Midna nearly choked, "WHAT? There's no WAY you could like that guy, he's just another jerk Zelda, all guys are."

It was Zelda's turn to sight. She knew why Midna was acting this way. She was dating this guy two years ago, his name was Zant. They were perfect together, that is, until Zant met Ganon. Ganon had always been a jerk and a complete asshole to any and every one. Although he was quite popular, it was a well-known fact that no one really liked him. It was only because he was big tough guy and one of the first freshmen to be play football on the varsity team. Well after Zant met Ganon he started to change. He started to act just like Ganon, cocky and stuck up, a complete douche; the kind of guy that thought of women as lesser beings.

As play things.

They thought they were so much better than everyone else.

Zelda closed her laptop and sat next to Midna on her bed.

"Midna…" She started.

Midna looked up at her. Zelda could tell that Midna knew it was wrong to judge Link blindly, but it wasn't for nothing. She had been hurt, and she just didn't want to see her best friend end up the same way.

"I'm sorry Zelda." Midna finally said in a hushed voice.

"It's alight Midna, you're just looking out for and I truly appreciate that. Im glad I have such a wonderful best friend. But you don't need to worry," she laughed lightly before she continued, "I don't even know if I really like him like that yet, we're just friends alright?"

Midna gave her a weak smile and nodded. Zelda grinned and punched Minda lightly in the shoulder.

"C'mon, let's go for a swim! It's such a nice day outside!"

Midna laughed, "Alright, but I didn't bring my bikini."

Zelda shook her head in disappointment, "Midna Midna Midna, aren't you glad I have SO many bikinis for you to choose from?"

Midna laughed, "Not really." She replied sarcastically.

"Well hurry up and pick one from my closet slow poke!" Zelda said, pushing Midna playfully.

Midna stuck her tongue out and walked over to Zelda's closet.

They both changed and went out back to the in-ground pool and swam around for a few hours. They got tired of swimming and decided to finish off their day in the hot tub.

"Ahhh, this feels sooo good!" Zelda said as she released a breath of air.

"Yeah~." Midna replied, tilting her back as she relaxed in the warm water. They both relaxed like that for a while. Zelda kept glancing over at Midna, she could tell something was on her mind. When she didn't say anything Zelda decided she would ask herself.

"So Midna, what's been on your mind? You seem a bit distracted."

"Hmm? Oh it's nothing…just that…" Midna trailed off

"Just what?" Zelda asked.

Midna sighed, "Well, I was sort of a jerk to Link today after school."

Zelda frowned, "Really? What happened?"

"I basically told him to back off of you and watch he did around you or he'd have to answer to me." Midna replied.

"Midna! You probably scared him off now!"

"But now that I think about it he didn't act any differently over the phone. Maybe he figured I didn't know since I called and didn't want to worry me?" Zelda didn't want to think of the other possibility, the one were Link didn't give a shit what her friends said and he would do what he wanted for his own motives.

Zelda shook away the invading thoughts and looked over at Midna, who currently had her eyes closed and seemed to be enjoying herself.

"Hey Midna."

"Yeah?"

"Why don't you stay the night?"

"It's a school night Zelda."

"So, Impa can talk to you parents. They love me anyways." Zelda laughed

Midna shrugged her shoulders, "Sure, I guess I can stay."

"Great!" Zelda replied as she splashed some water in Midna's direction.

"Hey!" laughed, trying to block the oncoming water. She splashed back and Zelda did the same. They stayed in the hot tub for another thirty minutes and then got out. Since the summer was over it was slowly starting to get darker earlier as well as colder. Zelda and Midna showered and changed into their sleepwear (Zelda lending some of her clothes to Midna) and they both got into bed.

"Goodnight Midna."

"Night Zelda."

"Zelda leaned back against the head board of her bed and reached for the switch to shut off the lights, but before she did she looked over at Midna,

"Hey Midna?"

"…Yea?" Midna replied, clearly wanting to go to bed.

"Be nice to Link from now alright?"

"Yeah yeah, whatever." She said, rolling over to her side.

Zelda smiled lightly before shutting off the lights. As Zelda laid in bed she couldn't help but wonder, "Why do I suddenly have all these feelings for Link, I don't even know him. I mean I know I sort of had a crush on him last year but I never actually did anything about it. As she thought more about a single question entered her mind,

"Does he even like me?"

(A.N.) Well there you have it! I hope it wasn't too girly or anything and I only made this whole chapter a POV from Zelda because I just wanted you guys to get a feel for her character (and a bit of Midna) in this fanfic. From now on it will mostly be from Links POV with Zelda's thrown in every once in a while.
