With Link not doing anything from the situation before, I was completely heart broken. I didn't know what to do anymore. I was depressed and tried everything to avoid him. After hearing him say that he couldn't love me, I was just a complete and total mess.

It was the middle of October. It was after school. I was sitting on a near by bench watching the leaves fall quickly from their home and die a slow death. The sky today is very cloudy, but not rain clouds. Children are running around, excited that Halloween starts next week.

I don't feel any emotion towards anything. I haven't for almost a week. The incident really fucked me up. Now I regret getting so close to him. I sigh to myself as I prepare to leave the area to return home.

"Leaving?" It was Nabooru. "Why don't we walk together?"

"Sure." I try to fake a smile but I get nothing.

She shakes her head and we begin to walk, side by side, down the messy sidewalk. The walk is silent. We both are speechless on what to say. I'm surprised that Link isn't with her or she isn't even bringing him up. All week, that's all who she could talk about. She wanted us to talk to each other again so bad.

"So…" She looked at me as we walked. "Have you and Link made up yet?"

"Stop bringing that up!" I yelled. I was getting so frustrated. I was tired of him always being brought up!

"You guys need to talk about this…" She mumbled, looking away from me. "You know he likes you."

"He doesn't." I grumbled. "He said he didn't. He didn't even try to call me back like you did."

"He never said that he didn't like you! He said that he shouldn't love you because of his situation." She was right. He never did say those exact words. It just hurt was all… It made me feel like I would never stand a chance. "He loves you. I don't know why he didn't try to call you back. I think he was just so shock…"

"He hasn't even attempted to talk to me though!" I felt like crying again, but I didn't want to cry in front of anyone again… I hated people knowing how vulnerable I was. "He doesn't want me at all…"

"Dark…" She pulled me into a hug. "I'm sorry… Everything will work out, okay?"

I nodded and pulled away from the embrace. She frowned slightly and looked like she was about to object, but she changed her mind quickly. It didn't take too long for us to be in front of my shitty home. I sighed to myself as I noticed a car in the drive way. It looked a lot like Vaati's car. Greeat. Now he was going to tell him about the whole drug thing.

"Guest?" Nabooru asked, pointing out the obvious.

I nod and walk up to the front door. She follows me as if she is a curious pet. I ignore the fact that she is right behind me and walk inside to a home that smells of coffee. So they aren't doing drugs just yet… Just making deals with each other. I whisper some curse words and peer into the kitchen.

"Hey dad." I walk into the kitchen with Nabooru clenching onto my sleeve. "My friend and I are just getting something is all."

"Hello sir…" Nabooru was trying to figure out which man was my father.

My father smiled at her warmly which made me very confused. He never smiled at guest unless he was close to them. Maybe he was high? I sigh as I pull out some energy drinks from the fridge. Vaati was turning a dark red as he examined Nabooru's body.

"Hello…" Vaati replies with a shaky voice.

"It's good to have guest!" My father cheers as he walks up to her and pats her on the back. Why was he being so overly friendly…? He wasn't like this with Link at all… "You must be Dark's friend! I haven't heard him mention a girl before though.. I'm his father! Ganondorf." He grins at her while she blushes a little. "What is your name?"

"N-Nabooru…" She nervously responds.

"Nabooru?" Vaati sounds a bit surprised. "What a beautiful name for such a gorgeous lady!"

She blushed even harder as she was being praised. I looked at them all with a weird expression on my face. What the hell is going on? Why are they all acting so weird towards each other? That comment Vaati made… What was with that? I throw an energy drink in Nabooru's direction and she catches it with ease.

"Come on Nabooru…" I tugged at her arm. "Let's go upstairs and study for that history test."

"Study?" My father chuckled. "He never studies. You must be a pretty good influence to have him be studying Nabooru!"

Nabooru seemed to become more and more embarrassed each time my father would mention her name. I couldn't tell what she was actually thinking of this. Her eyes were covered by her orange bangs while her tan face was in a deep blush. She nodded slightly and walked out of the kitchen with me. We head up into my messy room but she doesn't seem to even care. The Nabooru I knew for a week would of made a big deal out of it and sound like a nagging mother.

"What's up with you?" I tease. "You would normally be nagging towards me right now. You would also be objecting to those comments and call them dirty pigs. Are you feeling alright?"

"I'm fine…" She mumbled. "Your father… He's really kind."

"I guess?" I jump on my bed and open up the lemon flavored drink. "I'm surprised he acted like that. He is never that friendly towards people he first meets." I take a small sip of the sugary drink. "He was really rude towards Link…"

Link then came back into my mind. God, even my own father who I hated made me remember Link. Every single thing seemed to make me remember him. I drank more of the drink, pretending like it was a powerful alcoholic drink that would make me forget everything.

"Dark…" She started as she sat right next to me on my sloppily made bed. "Can you please try to speak with Link? He must regret what he's done…"

"You're not sure?" I asked her a bit surprised. "He tells you everything, doesn't he?"

"He did…" She looked outside my window and let out a deep, long sigh. "But after that little fight… He won't talk to me as much. I can't understand why. When I ask him about it, he just says that there isn't anything of interest to talk about. Dark, I don't understand. He must be missing you with how he is acting. He's been so different too. Haven't you noticed?"

"I haven't…" I looked away shamefully. "I've been wanting to avoid him this whole time… It hurts me so much just to look at him."

"I can understand." She began to pick up the clothes that scattered across my room. "Please try to speak with him. I can't resolve this for you two. Only you two can do it."

Even though I didn't want to agree with her, she was right. Nabooru or anyone else couldn't make us make up. I wasn't use to this, but I knew that I better get use to it. I sigh as I realize how life can be such a bitch.

"Well. I'm off. Thanks for having me over!" Nabooru waved good bye and with that, she was off.

"What a cute friend you have…" Vaati whispered right behind me.

I turned around slowly, looking at the twenty year old. My body twitched slightly as I heard him talk like that. He notices me feeling a little uneasy and just laughs. I glared at him slightly and pushed him out of my way. Vaati was acting different and I didn't really like it…

"Dark, where are you going?" He asked as I headed upstairs.

"She's gay Vaati." I hollered as I was at the very top of the stairs.

"Gay?" He laughed and shook his head. "I'll change that…"

I rolled my eyes, thinking that he was just drugged up and went into my room to lay down. I had a terrible headache which felt like it was killing me. As I laid there on my bed, I kept thinking about Link. I wanted to talk to him again, I really did, but every time I would be around him I couldn't help but to feel depressed and scared to talk to him. I had no idea how I was going to pull myself to talk to him, I just knew I had to.

It was the next day and a weekend too. Thank god. I was in direr need of a little break from everything and everyone. My father was getting ready to head out with Vaati while my mother was getting ready for her early shift at work.

It was late afternoon and of course, it was raining. I hate the rain. It reminds me too much of that first day we actually hung out. I've been wanting to call him over all day but whenever I get even remotely close to dialing his number, I chicken out and put away my phone.

Today didn't seem like it would be a good day.

Very short chapter? D: I seriously intended on this being longer, but it turns out that it isn't. I have been EXTREMELY busy lately and have not had any computer time to update this. The next chapter will actually get somewhere, I promise. But for now, I don't want to lose readers and I don't want it to seem like I've given up. Because I haven't. Things are a little bit better now.

I'm sorry it took so long for such a short chapter. I promise you guys will know something new the next one.

Thank you for the reviews, thank you for reading! Thank you for proof reading Haley!
