Hi, for those of you who haven't figured it out yet, I powered through my writers block. 4 chapters in 2 days woot woot

ZELDA'S POV

I woke up from a fantastic dream. I dreamed that Link had won the race, and I was standing before him in my beautiful white gown. It was glistening in the sun. I handed him the sailcloth and he leaned in towards me….But before our lips could meet I woke up. I sighed slightly frustrated and walked over to the mirror to do my hair. When my eyes made contact with the mirror and I screamed. Link burst into the room half dressed with his sword drawn. He looked around for danger but didn't see any. He then looked back to me and I whispered, "Somebody cut my hair." It was a disaster. It was not in the slightest bit straight. I felt my eyes tear up. He dropped his sword and pulled me into a hug. It wasn't just the hair cut that bothered me. It was the fact that someone hated me so much that they would do this.

Link handed me a handkerchief he had in his pocket and told me, "Don't worry Zellie, We can fix it to where it is all one length. It will eventually grow back." I nodded and smiled at him. By then a crowd had gathered at the door and people were laughing. I went into the bathroom with the scissors and Link shooed the people away. I started to even out the sides, but Link would have to do the back. As if on cue he walked in. I finished off the sides and handed him the scissors. We stood there in silence, mainly because he was concentrating on fixing my hair and I was just feeling self-conscious. When he was finally finished, it didn't look too bad. Ruto, Midna, Malon, and Sariah walked in and complemented the good job Link had done. I still felt awkward but I felt better knowing that Link had helped. He then went back to his room to get dressed. He was still walking around only in his boxers…not that I minded the view.

The girls sat on the bed. I grabbed a dress and went into the bathroom. Something weird happened, No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't zip the dress up on my own. I then asked if one of the girls could help me. I walked into the room as Midna was closing the bedroom door and Sariah stood up to help me Zip it. It was difficult, but she finally managed to get it up. It was so tight I was afraid to breath in it. I started talking to them because I needed to vent, "I just don't understand this. This dress fit fine a few days ago plus the whole hair incident. Today is a dreadful day and it hasn't even started."

Malon was saying words of comfort when Ruto interrupted, "Zelda, I have something you may not want to hear, but I would be a pour friend if I didn't say anything." I was nervous, but I let her know that I was listening. She looked at her feet and said, "Zelda, you're getting kind of chubby. I noticed this before but today just confirmed it. It is not normal for someone to gain so much weight so fast." The other girls stared in disbelief. I was kind of shocked too, when I was a child I was always criticized for being too skinny. But now, I had someone telling me I was getting fat.

I looked at my horrid reflection in the mirror and tried to think, was there anything there that I liked? The dress was so tight I looked like a whore. I sighed and turned back to Ruto and asked, "What can I do about it? My eating habits haven't changed in the slightest." She hugged me and said, "Well you have several options. One, you could go the supermodel route." I shook my head no, they always had such disgusting teeth. "Two, you could take laxatives and diet pills. I also shook my head at that one. "Three, you could starve yourself."

I turned to her and asked, "Are there any healthy options?" She shook her head no and said, "Not if you want to fit in that fantastic gown in 2 days. I sighed and figured this was my best bet.

A knock sounded on the door and I opened it. Link was standing there and asked, "Are you ready to go to breakfast?" All the girls got up from the bed and went to the dining hall. Link stood by me and talked to me about practicing with his Loftwing. He seemed to become really attached to this bird. I was glad to see him so happy. While breakfast was going on I mainly played with my food, pushing it around my plate to make it appear that I had eaten something. Link didn't notice thankfully since he was having a conversation with Groose about the race. After breakfast I decided to go outside the castle and run on a trail I saw on the way to the castle. Link wanted to practice for the race again, but I could tell he was keeping an eye on me from up above.

My shorter hair was making things a bit easier since my ponytail wasn't constantly whacking me in the face. I was used to running in charity marathons so I ran a good distance.

MALON'S POV

We were sitting in Ruto's room and I asked, "Ruto, what the hell were you thinking when you cut that girls hair. That was really mean." Sariah jumped in, "Yeah and telling her she was FAT. That is like the cruelest thing to say to a girl. I mean look at her." She said as she pointed out the window. "She has been running laps on that trail for a good 30 minutes!" To my surprise even Midna had something to say, "What you did was low, even or you. She has been nothing but nice to us since day one." We somehow managed to back Ruto into a corner. Ruto was squirming but said, "It's not like I am actually making her fat. I just had my seamstress take in her clothes a little while I cut her hair." We all gasped at Ruto. She was an evil genius. She then finished by saying, "I also have a plan for when she is finished running laps, if you will excuse me."

LINK'S POV

I landed my bird, someone needed to stop Zelda. It has been 2 hours already and she was still running. I landed next to her. She was drenched from head to toe. I said goodbye to my loftwing and asked her if she wanted to go in. She was bending over slightly, out of breath but nodded.

We walked to the castle and I asked her if she would like to go to lunch. I was positive she was starving from all that running. She shook her head no and said, "I will eat something a little later. I am dying for a bath right now." I headed towards the dining area and she headed towards her room. I sat down and began to eat. A few minutes later, Groose asked me if I had a sling shot he could borrow. He was trying to impress a girl. I nodded. Started to head towards my bedroom.

ZELDA'S POV

I grabbed a towel and sat it next to the wooden tub. I stepped in and let my bath water. It seemed to release all the tension that was pent up that day. I leaned my head back and dosed off for a few moments. I opened my eyes when I saw a flash. There was a man in my room taking a picture of me while I was taking a bath. I grabbed my towel, wrapped it around me. I then tried to get out of the tub but I slipped and fell hard on my shoulder. I shrieked, "Get out of here! LINK, HELP!" For the second time today Link busted through the door and saw the man. I was on the floor with a towel wrapped around me. Link ran towards the man, but the man jumped through the window and called his loft wing. Link was about to follow when I groaned in pain.

He then noticed I was bleeding. The old wound on my shoulder had bust open again from my fall. He picked me up and sat me on the bathroom counter. He grabbed some gauze from the medicine cabinet and began to wrap my arm. I felt uncomfortable since I was wearing only a towel around myself but I kept quiet about it. When he was finished he asked me if I knew that guy. I shook my head no. He sighed and said, "Well one thing's for certain."

"What?" I asked.

"I will never be bored when I am around you." He said with a smile.

I knew he was joking but right now I just wanted to curl up into a ball and die. I asked him to leave so I could get dressed and started working on the sailcloth again. I could only hope my tears wouldn't stain it.
