The Love that Ties us Together
By thewildthings
DISCLAIMER: blah blah I don't own Zelda or Nintendo. Could someone like, leave in the reviews if I have to do this for EVERY chapter? Thanks!
What do I do? Link thought as he paced his room in Hyrule Castle. I am in a committed relationship with Nabooru! I love her! I want to get married to her and spend the rest of my life with her! But for some reason, I get that feeling in my stomach every time I look at Zelda. I don't know how to explain it, it is like, when I'm riding on Epona, and she is running full speed down a steep hill! What the hell am I saying! I LOVE NABOORU! Link took off his hat and rubbed his hair back off his forehead. He was sweating buckets! He was going to ask Saria what he should do about Zelda, when he mentioned not saying goodbye to Nabooru. He did write a note, but she may have been too worried to read it! A loud knock on the door and an annoying and sarcastic voice interrupted his panicking.
"Oh, Mister Hero! Are you back from your "errands" yet?"
"Yes, Zelda, what do you want?"
"Humph! I don't really like your tone! Might I remind you that I am a royal and the Queen of Hyrule in a few hours? In fact, that's just what I came to talk of!" Zelda said as she barged into his room.
"Hey!" exclaimed Link, "I don't have a shirt on! I just woke up!"
Zelda stared at his six-pack for another millisecond and then turned her back around while he changed. Damn, Thought Zelda, this boy is seriously ripped!
"Okay, you can turn around now." Said Link in the most annoyed voice he could.
Zelda turned back to face the green man and said, "You worried everyone sick how could you do something like that!?"
"Whoa, mind telling me what I did first?"
"You snuck out last night and we didn't know if you would be back in time for the wedding!?"
"Why would I want to go to your stupid wedding!? I have nothing to wear except this green tunic and weddings are always super boring!"
Zelda looked as though she would cry. She swallowed and said through angry tears, "Weddings are NOT boring! They are ceremonies of love and passion to join two people together as a FAMILY! Although I guess someone as heartless as YOU wouldn't know about love."
"Hey!" shouted Link, "I'll have you know that I am madly in love with the most beautiful woman in the world! If anyone doesn't know about love it's YOU!"
SLAP!
Link reached up to the stinging red mark on his face as he looked at Zelda, the tears rapidly rolling down her cheeks, "Zelda," Link began, "Zelda, I'm so sorry."
"D-Do you… have ANY idea what it's like having to be forced into marriage! No! But I d-didn't agree to m-marry a total stranger for n-nothing! I'm helping people! I'm saving the-the world! You wouldn't know that f-feeling of g-giving everything up for the world! You g-get to actually experience the feeling of l-l-lo-"
Zelda couldn't say any more. She broke down onto the floor and began sobbing hysterically. Link didn't know what else to do but to kneel down beside her and allow her to sob into his shoulder. Shit! Link thought, this is all my fault!
Link and Zelda just sat there for what seemed like several hours. Zelda with her face buried in his chest, Link's hand at her waist, the other stroking her hair.
Every once in a while, he would say in a soothing voice, "Everything is going to be okay."
A/N: Hey guys! I'm really sorry about how short this chapter is. Others will be longer. Also DON'T WORRY! Well have a kiss and some looooove in a few chapters. In fact less than that! If you notice any mistakes of confuzzling things in my chapters, please let me know in your reviews! ;)
