A/N:
So, it's finally here! Chapter 6 of "Smile If You Love Me", the story of forbidden love between Zelda and the Happy Mask Shop guy, Bob. I've been writing funny stuff lately, and I didn't really want to write in this one, but I'm being loyal to my word and finishing it. (It doesn't end here so don't worry.) Also, I have the whole rest of the story planned out. So, if you will just sit back, relax, and enjoy the story, I'd be happy to type it for you. Please read and review, watch the stock market and most importantly, BE HAPPY!!

Disclaimer:
Do I really have to say this on every single chapter? I don't own Zelda!! (Actually, I do. I have stock in Nintendo. Ah, I don't think that counts though. Oh well.)

Here

Goes!!!!



~*~Smile If You Love Me~*~

~*~Chapter 6: Kävik's Move~*~

"Guards?" The King summoned the guards to his throne that evening. "The pig, Kävik?"

The guards nodded.

"Have him released. But I don't want him near Zelda! I've talked to Bjorn. He's expecting him home."

The guards nodded and left the throne-room.

Down the dungeon steps they went, and approached the last stall where Kävik was. They pulled open the door and grabbed Kävik by the arms and cuffed him.

"We are under orders to let you go," said one of the guards.

"You are to return to your father," said the other,

"and not to touch Zelda," finished the first. "Understood?" he asked.

Kävik nodded, happy to be out of the cell.

~*~*~

The next day, Zelda, who was feeling much better than she had the day before, dressed and ate and set out to the market. She was going to visit Bob, whom she loved so dearly and wanted to marry.

She got to the Happy Mask Shop, and Bob was at the door. "Zelda!" he cried, as she entered. "I hoped that I would see you again! I thought you were leaving me!"

"Oh no," said Zelda. "I would never leave you. I love you, Bob." Bob could see that she was getting teary-eyed. He closed shop once again and led Zelda to the back room.

"Don't you worry you'll ever go out of business? You keep closing shop!" said Zelda.

"Ooh," said Bob, putting his arm around her. "I have all I'll ever want right in front of me."

"You're so sweet," Zelda literally cried.

"What's wrong?" said Bob.

"Nothing," said Zelda. "It's just that I love you so much!" She cried and gave Bob a kiss on the lips. Bob kissed her back.

"And I love you too, Zelda."

"No matter what my father says, I'm going to marry you," said Zelda, between kisses.

"We can - " started Bob, but he was interrupted by Zelda -

"Holy shit!" said Zelda. She was looking out the window, and there stood Kävik.

"Quick, hide!" said Bob. He pulled her behind a couch. "My windows are sound-proofed, so he couldn't hear us."

"But he saw me!" said Zelda. "He saw us!"

"How do you know he knew it was you?"

"He just did! He's going to tell my father!"

"It will be OK, Zelda."

"No it won't!"

"Zelda," said Bob, firmly. "You're going to have to go back to the castle. Hopefully, your father doesn't find out, but if he does…"

"Yes?"

"If he does, I'll come after you. I'll be your knight in shining armor."

"I love you, Bob," cried Zelda. She gave him one last hug and kiss before venturing into the front room.

"As soon as you know Kävik's gone, you go," said Bob.

"Will I ever see you again?" asked Zelda.

"Yes."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm positive. One hundred percent."

With that, Zelda left, not knowing if and when she would ever see Bob again.

~*~*~

Zelda didn't visit Bob for a whole week. She was experiencing withdrawal symptoms from not seeing him. Her appetite was changing, and she would have sudden mood swings. "I miss Bob," she would say to herself when she was all alone in her room.

One day, her father personally came up to her room. "Zelda?" he asked as he knocked gently on the door.

"Come in, Father," Zelda answered. She got up off her bed and walked to the door. The King entered and sat down on a chair.

"Zelda," he started. "I have just spoken to Bjorn. I released Kävik, and he's back home now."

"Yes," said Zelda, nodding, uninterested.

"Kävik had some information to give him."

Zelda still looked uninterested.

"Zelda, I think you know what information I'm talking about."

Zelda just looked confused.

"He said Kävik saw you in the Happy Mask Shop kissing the owner! I thought it was preposterous, but Bjorn told me though Kävik was indeed a jackass, he was no liar."
Zelda looked at her toes. "Is this correct?"

Zelda nodded. "Yes," she said softly. "That is correct." There were tears rolling down her eyes as she said this.

"That man is not good enough for a princess such as you!" the King told Zelda. "You know very well that you are to marry Kel. He will be good for you. Much better than a poor mask dealer!"

"But Father!" cried Zelda. "I love him!"

"The hell you do!" yelled the King. "You don't know the first thing about love! You won't until you marry Kel. Now he's a man worth loving!"

"But -" started Zelda.

"Don't 'but' me!" said the King. "Enough is enough! You are not to go back to the shop! Impa will supervise you. I do not want you with that man ever again! Do you hear?"

Zelda nodded. "Yes."

The King left her room and closed the door behind him.

Zelda threw herself onto her bed and sobbed into the covers. "Bob! Please after me! Be my knight in shining armor! I love you Bob! I LOVE YOU!!!"
