It had been raining for a few minutes and Mipha sorrowfully stared at the rain. It had come out of nowhere, ruining the only time Mipha had with Link. With Mipha's monarch and Link's knight training, it seemed like they never could expect to just meet each other anymore.

Mipha had understood her feelings for Link long ago and just wanted to tell him how she felt. But, Link had been so distant since he began his training. Was there someone else? Was there a Hylian? Was Link not into women? Or, worst of all for her\

, had she been… friend zoned? All these thoughts raced around her mind as she, unknowingly, began to blush more and more.

"Uh… Mipha are you okay?" Link asked with a concerned, but a little hopeful, tone.

"Huh," Mipha said as she turned to Link and put her hand on her cheek. It was then that she realized how hard she was blushing, which is pretty terrible when your face is the lightest shade of white. "Oh yeah, I'm fine. I, um… I just must have been a bit more tired than I thought. Yeah! I mean, I ran quite a bit to this cave."

"Oh, okay" he said in a bit of a sorrowful tone. "Good to hear you're alright" he quickly added, with a fake smile.

After that, the two sat in silence until Mipha, trying to keep her blush away, said "so, you must have made a ton of friends in training, huh?" Mipha gave a warm smile but in her mind she was unbelievably relieved that she was able to think so quickly. Now, she would get figure out if he was with anyone, all without directly asking. She was very proud of herself.

"Honestly…" Link replied in a bit of a discouraged tone.

"Yeah" Mipha said in anticipation, while she smiled adorably.

"Ah…" Link said, while quickly breaking eye contact and turning to look at the rain, "I haven't really. I mean, we barely get to talk, while we're in training and… I guess, I just can't really relate to them when we have time."

Mipha was a bit saddened by this. Link seemed so happy in his letters but, come to think of it, neither of them made friends very easily, as long as she had known him at least. This worried her, if she ruined her friendship with him by confessing, would they ever have make friends, again? She knew, she needed Link, at least as a friend. Was it worth the risk? "Link" she said with a melancholy tone and smile, "looks like we haven't changed that much."

They both laughed. Link, looking happier than he was before, said "yeah, especially you" -referring to her youthful body.

"Link," she said in a somewhat annoyed tone, "did you just call me young?"

"Um," Link said, after understanding the mistake he had made, "no… I just meant your sweet personality" Link said in a panic.

"Link… your just as immature as ever."

"Good thing, I have the best friend ever then, huh?"

Friend… Mipha thought. She just couldn't stand it anymore. Link was still the same understanding kid he was before. He would understand, even if he didn't like her, she thought. She had to do it, so she mustered all the courage she had. She replied, "Link, I'm really sorry if this is super sudden or whatever but, I have to say that, I love you."

Link's face turned bright red as a huge dumb smile crept across his face. "Mipha," he said in a bubbly voice, "I love you, t…"

Mipha cut him off, when she closed the distance between their mouths, kissing him. Link's eyes were open at first but he quickly closed them. Their kiss lasted a while, as neither of them wanted to pull apart.

After a while, Link finally pulled tiny bit away. He said, "Mipha, you didn't let me finish. You know this was important to me" in a teasingly pouty way.

Mipha laughed and, with a smile and bright eyes, replied "sorry, I've waited years to do that."

Link smiled even wider and said, "me too" before they kissed, again.

For Mipha, time seemed to blur as they kissed and held each other. She had never felt so happy and she knew Link hadn't either. She wanted this moment to last forever but then remembered she would have tons more like it in the future.

Unfortunately, the rain had to stop eventually and it did. After a little hesitation, the two finally got up.

"Hey" Link said, "um… I don't have to stay in the Baracks at night, do you think…"

"Yes! Of course, you can come back to Zora's Domain. You know we've kept your room vacant."

"Awesome," Link said with a smile.

They kissed one more time, before parting ways. As Mipha walked back home, she felt a warmth she hadn't felt in a while. She finally could be truthful to Link. She finally had a booooyfrieeeeeend.


I have to say that I don't know about this chapter. I mean, I like it but I feel it is much shorter than the others and maybe not as heavy on world building as the others. Anyway, I still like it and I hope you did too.

I want to give another shout out to all followers and everyone who favorited this story because you guys are the best and encourage me tons.

BTW, I finally decided on the future of this one shot series and wanted to share it with you. I wanted to complete ten one shots for this series and, at the end, I wanted you guys to vote on which story you would like to see as expanded. I really hope you guys are cool with this idea and are already choosing favorites (but you better not choose the first one because it kind of has an ending already... though if it ends up with the most votes, we'll have to see).
