Tree
By GreatAngemon
"Link," Zelda said into the phone receiver. "You need to come over and see our Christmas tree."
"I'll be over in half an hour," Link said, slightly confused. "I have to finish my chores, and then I'll be right over."
"Okay," Zelda said excitedly.
Thirty five minutes later Zelda opened the door for Link, who was standing on the front steps. "You said something about a tree?" Link said. Just as he finished talking, Zelda grabbed his wrist and pulled him into her living room.
"Look at that," she said, pointing at a large, fully filled balsam fir tree in the corner. It had red, green, blue and yellow lights wrapped all around it, and red and green glass balls hanging every few inches.
"It looks nice," Link said
"And this is the best part," Zelda said, even more excitedly. She pulled a small box off of one of the branches, and, opening it, she pulled out a small glass pickle. "It's a Terminian tradition," she explained to Link. "We hide it the day of Christmas, and then whoever finds it gets to open their presents first."
"Cool," Link said, hanging the pickle on one of the branches. "Let's watch T.V."
Zelda sat down on the couch and turned on the T.V. "What do you want to watch?"
"A Christmas Carol," Link said. They sat there watching T.V until they fell asleep, Zelda laying on top of Link.
"Aren't they adorable?" Zelda's mom said to Link's mom over the phone. "I just sent you a picture on your cell."
A moment later she heard Link' mom give out a soft, "Awe…"
That whole hiding the pickle on the tree thing is true, but they do it in the Czech Republic, not Termina, which isn't a real place.
