Cozy

By GreatAngemon

"Link, your couch is comfy," Zelda said, laying down and stretching.

"Okay," Link said, shrugging and pulling a blanket out of the closet. "Here's a blanket."

Zelda smiled sadly at him. "Thanks for putting up with me for the night," she said, curling up and covering herself with the blanket.

"It's no problem," Link said. "I don't mind having you over."

"Yeah, but I'm only here because Ganondorf threw me out," Zelda said, her voice choked. "I wish it wasn't for that reason."

"I do too," Link said. "But I'm glad that you're here either way."

"Link," Zelda whispered, "Will you sleep out here with me tonight?"

"I don't know if that's such a good idea," Link said, smiling sadly at her. "You're just sad and tired, and that's why you want me to sleep out here."

"No, I also want you out here because this is even thinner than airplane blankets," Zelda said, waving the blanket in Link's face.

"I'll be right out," Link sighed after a moment. "Just a second." He walked into his room, and came back out with a thick quilt.

"I gave this to you," Zelda said, surprised. "I gave it to you on your birthday five years ago. I didn't think you kept it."

"O f course I kept it," Link said. "You gave it to me."

"Thanks Link," Zelda said, giggling slightly.

"Now go to bed," Link said, laying down next to her and pulling the quilt over them both.

"Goodnight Link," Zelda said, snuggling up into his chest.

"Goodnight, Zelda," Link said, closing his eyes.

"Link," Zelda whispered after a moment, "It's cozy here, in your arms."

"I feel the same," Link said back. "Goodnight."
