(A/N) Whaddup people! Anyway I'm was freaking at school. xD Yes my school has started already, sadly. Anyway today is Friday, and I am going to update everyday for the weekend because I don't think I would have the time to update more often. I don't like school it gets in the way of reading and updating. BTW ITS TIME FOR THAT ZELINK THAT WAS MENTION! YEAH! \m/ So anyway ummm… Here's chapter 4? Yeah I think that's right. Anyway here's "As One"
Disclaimer: I don't own Legend of Zelda.
Zelda giggles. "Well, I'm going to let you settle in. Do you want to have lunch with me and my father?"
That was an offer I couldn't refuse. I mean lunch with the king and his daughter? Who wouldn't accept. "Sure." Was all I said, but sounding a little too eager.
"Ok, I'll tell my father. Lunch will be served soon, so don't take too long. See you later!" With that Zelda walks down the hall.
I close the door, and jump on the bed. It's so unimaginably soft. I smile in content. This has to be the best day of my life. I start to unpack, as I finished I headed towards the dining hall
"Katrina?" I look at her with a questionable expression.
"Fine. We'll do it."
"All right we do this the day after tomorrow." I look out to the sun. The desert is looking quite pleasant. I just hope we can do this, with Blake gone.
Link's POV
Lunch with the king and Zelda was pretty nice. Thought I think I went a little overboard with the roasted cucco. I. AM. STUFFED. So I continue walking, having no idea where I am. I got lost about 3 minutes ago, but I didn't want to give up. So here I am roaming the halls of Hyrule Castle. When I'm supposed to be in the courtyard. Seriously I have no idea where I am every hallway looks the same, well to me anyway, and I haven't even spotted any guards or servants. Thats kinda odd. Why is Hyrule Castle so empty. I thought I would have spotted a guard by now. Wait. Something isn't right. It feels like someone is watching me. I take a glance around myself, but I don't see anyone. Huh, must be my imagination. I turn around one more to continue walking when I bump into somebody. I landed on my behind.
Oof. I grunt at my landing and I take a look at who I bumped into. It was Impa. I laugh sheepishly as I get up. "Hey Impa, uh.. what are you doing here." I manage to say while I rubbed my neck nervously.
"I should be asking you the same thing, Hero of Time" Impa answers.
"How did yo-" I was interrupted by her.
"I thought you would have known that sages can remember everything that happened," Impa smirks.
"WHAT? I never knew that. I thought Zelda and I were the onl-" I get interrupted again.
"Zelda is a sage too, but it's different with her."
"Oh, that's right."
"Well enough of that, I came here to ask you why aren't you at the courtyard."
"Wait. How did you know I was supposed to be there." I ask in curiosity. Impa never knew I was supposed to be there.
"I'm Zelda's caretaker. She told me you were supposed to be there, and you aren't. Zelda got worried so I came to look for you."
"Really? She got…. worried about… me?"
"Yes, of course she did. She probably still worried, as we speak."
"Alright, I should be on my way then." I turn around to walk down the hall, but before I get a chance to do so. I was stopped by Impa.
"Link, the courtyard is this way." She says point towards the other direction.
I turn around to start walking, but was stopped once more. She told me if I never where the courtyard was, sadly, I didn't have a clue. So she told me the directions. I asked why she isn't taking care of Zelda. She told me she was in good hands. I knew she was talking about me, but I just thought I wouldn't be able to save her if anything bad happened. I couldn't save her at the Temple of Time when Ganondorf took her away. I sigh at the thought. I have to stop living in the past, or in this case, the future. It's actually funny. Whenever I think about something I did on my adventure I always say it's in the future. Though I'm reliving memories, which is basically reliving the past. My thought were interrupted when I hear Zelda gasp. I look in front of me to find her running towards me. I found it odd. Why would sh- My thought were, once again, interrupted by Zelda tackling me.
"Oh goddess' Link! Where were you" She asked in a worried matter.
"Well, let's just say I kinda got lost in the castle. Impa found me, and told me the directions to the courtyard." I answer her question.
"Uh… One more thing Zelda."
"What's that?"
"Could you be kind enough to get off me?" I ask seeing that she tackled me and didn't bother getting up.
"Oh, um.. Sorry about that." She gets up and dusts her self as she blushes.
An awkward silence bestows upon us, but I decided I should break it apart. "So, who do you think those theirs were?"
"My father said that the thief that is held in the castle is Hylian, but my father hasn't seen this man in his entire life."
"I thought you father suggested that he came from the land beyond the desert?"
"Yes, indeed he did, but that man is Hylian. There is only one place where Hylian can come from and that's in-"
"Hyrule." I interrupted her.
"Yes, that's correct."
"Have you seen this man yourself?"
"Yes I have, he is tanned. Obviously because of the desert. He has the same hair colour as you do." Zelda explained some more. She explain on what he dressed. The only thing that had my mind on was the hair colour. Never in my life, I had met a person with the same hair colour as me. Never. I wonder if I could ask this thief some questions while the king asks his.
Zelda's POV
I was explaining to Link on what the thief's attire when he had attempted to murder my father, but I soon stopped to notice that Link was in deep thought. He didn't seem to notice I stopped explaining. He just kept thinking. I take a good look at his face. Those azure eyes. They are filled with adventure and mystery, or so I thought. Anyway that is what I saw in his eyes. He looks a little chubby on the cheeks. Though I remember what he looked like when he was older. When I first saw him while I was disguised as Shiek. His cheeks weren't chubby at all. He look so handsome when we were older. I knew then it was love at first sight. Even though I saw him as a kid. I didn't really know what love was, but as I aged those seven years. I began to knew what it was. The love I had for Link was hidden, shunned, and was tucked away from him. I just didn't have the courage to tell him about it. Oh how I wished he could lend me some of his courage. Then maybe, just maybe, we could be together. Link snapped out of his thinking, though I was oblivious from seeing it. I was staring directly at him. I looked away from embarrassment. I feel my face heating up as I do.
He had that smirk on his face. That stupid smirk. That stupid absolutely cute smirk.
"Zelda, what were you staring at?" he asked though he probably knew I was staring at him.
"Nothing." Oh yeah that will definitely keep him from saying more stuff about my embarrassment. I thought to myself sarcastically.
"Zel, I never knew that my face was so interesting to you." Link made that smirk once more.
"Ugh.. Could you stop making that face!" Ok, this is going bad.
"What, you mean this?" He re-did his smirk, while he put his face closer to mine.
"Yes!" Ok, this is going bad fast I need to change the subject.
"Well, who knew that Zelda Harkinian had a thing for Link Forester's face." He says backing away and spinning with his arms extended.
I giggled, "Oh, please the only thing I'm interested in is your relationship with m-" I bring both of my hand to my mouth. Oh no. I can't believe I just said that.
Link stopped spinning and looked at me. Confused. "What do you mean? My relationship with who?" He asked. His confused expression melted into a devilish grin as he walks towards me. Uh oh.
"I-I uh.." I couldn't say anything. I was to shocked to say anything. Link stops right in front of me and asks once more. "Zelda, My relationship with who?" No! Not that smirk again.
"U-Uh.. Y-your Relationship w-with uh.." I tried to say something, but then he grabbed my hand. I gasped and looked at him. He was looking at me right in the eye. I couldn't help, but to blush. I wasn't expecting this to happen.
"Zelda?"
"Uhm. Y-yes"
"Honestly, I thought you didn't feel the same about me." He looked away and rubbed the back of his neck nervously. He stopped and look at me once more. "I.. I. love you Zel."
My eyes widen while my brain was trying to process what he had just said.
"Uh.. Sorry could yo repeat that?"
"I love you."
This has got to be the best day of my life. Link Forester from Kokiri Forest, the Hero of Time, the guy who stole my heart has confessed that he loved me. I couldn't think of anything else to say. I was speech-less. Though I gathered enough courage, and said:
"I love you too"
Link looked at me with those adventurous, mysterious, azure eyes and smiled. Now we can be together. We would never be apart. No one will tear us apart. Not even Ganondorf. Link and I had finally had our 'Princess and Hero' moment. We love each other and our hearts are as one.
(A/N) So? That was actually pretty fun to write. I had to admit though writing in Zelda's POV wasn't kinda hard. Anyway Review? Tell me how I did with my first ever fluff chapter. xD ANyway it is 7:10 am and I have school in about 2 hours. Luckily I only have half a day of school. So I'll try and update another chapter by tonight. Anyway This is SxDsX signing off. Remember to REVIEW!
