Here is the...um... next chapter. Sorry it took so long.
'Uh oh...were in deep shit now,' thought a paralyzed Link. The wet and extremely angry father was staring daggers at him. Link was paralyzed with fear. He practically turned white.
Malon moved from under the paralyzed man and picked up her blouse. Link started to unfreeze and moved off the bed. Talon's expression softened and he walked over to Link.
Link flinched when Talon rested his hand on his shoulder. "Don't be afraid son, I won't kill ya" Talon said.
Link relaxed a little and looked at the floor, afraid to look into Talon's eyes.
"Boy I tell ya, you two sure are persistent. Why don't you just get married." Talon said.
"Malon looked at her father quizzically, "How did you know where we were?" she asked.
"Well Ingo saw you two sneakin' off, so he told me and I followed ya to the lake. I couldn't get across to this little cottage since you took the boat so I had to swim and that storm started." Malon maneuvered her father over to the couch in front of the fire and sat him down.
"You sit here. You'll catch a cold. Link, is there any tea here?" she asked.
"Uh yea" Link said as he took some tealeaves out of the cupboard. He went outside and filled a pot with water. He put the pot over the fire and it started to boil. Malon took the boiling water and poured it into a cup with the tealeaves.
She sat down next to her father as he drank it. Link stood away in case Talon might want to splash him with the hot tea.
"You two are going to get married because Malon is of that age anyway and you can't seem to control yourself Link." Talon said between sips.
"Uh…" Link started.
"Is there an objection Link" Talon said coldly.
"N…no sir" Link stuttered as he looked down at the floor again. It wasn't that Link didn't want to marry Malon. It's just that he didn't want to commit so early.
"Since you two are engaged, Malon needs a ring Link" Talon said.
Link had a ring but it wasn't an engagement ring. He had bought it while in the market one day. 'It'll work' he thought as he fished around in his pocket. It was a gold ring with a heart shaped ruby on it.
Talon looked at him in surprise, "Were you going to ask her to marry you?" he asked.
"Well, no it was going to be a gift, but it will work as an engagement ring" he said. He took Malon's hand and placed the ring on her finger. "Well since that's settled, when do you plan on having it" Talon asked his daughter.
"What!? This is all so sudden! I don't know when I'm going to have the wedding. I just got engaged! How can you ask such a stupid question like that?" Malon said excitedly.
"Calm down! Don't get all excited. I'm sorry I asked that." Talon said.
Link put his shirt back on and sat down in a chair at the table. "Well…um…this is weird, Talon…sir. Uh… I wasn't… how are you just going to make us get married."
Talon turned toward him," Well you were going to ask her to marry you eventually, weren't you?" Talon asked.
"Well…yea but…" Link trailed off.
"You remember the first time you came to the ranch?" Talon asked.
"Yes" Link replied.
"I asked you if you wanted to marry Malon, remember?" Talon asked.
"Yea, I remember that" Link replied.
"You said yes," Talon stated.
"Yes I did, but I wasn't really sure what marriage was then." Link said.
"You did know a little about it, right?" Talon asked.
"Yea I guess so." Link replied.
"You guess so? You said you weren't really sure about it but you knew what it was." Talon said.
"Huh? I mean…yea I knew a little about." Link said.
"Now you know a little about it," Talon pressed.
"Dad, what are you doing? You're confusing him." Malon interrupted.
"Hush, I'm just asking a few harmless questions. Besides I'm bored and I have to do something" Talon said, " Well Link?"
"What?" Link asked.
"Did you or did you not know something about marriage seven years ago?" Talon asked.
"Yes" Link replied.
"What did you know about it?" Talon asked.
"Well, I knew that when a man really loved a woman he would want to be with her forever so he would ask her to marry him. She would say yes and they would have this party type thing with flowers and rings and dresses and suits and a priest. He would say some stuff, the couple would repeat and they would be married." Link said
"Well you did know a quite a bit about which is weird." Talon said.
"Why is it weird dad?" Malon asked.
"Well he did live with children most of his life and they probably don't know a thing about it." Talon replied, "How did you find out about it Link?"
" Well when I was out fighting when I was a kid, I was in the market one day and I was passing the Temple of Time. I saw all these people all dressed up. I asked one of the bystanders about it and he told me it was a wedding. I didn't know what that meant so I asked him what it was and he told me about it." Link said.
"Oh Ok. Well I'm tired I think I'll take a nap" Talon said. He got up off the couch and went over to the bed. He got under the covers and quickly fell asleep.
Link got up off the chair and went over to the couch. He sat down next to Malon and stared into the flames. "So we're engaged now. Are you okay with that?" Link asked Malon.
"Yea I'm okay with that" She replied.
Link put his arm around her shoulders and hugged her to him. "It'll be cool to be married. I think." Link said.
"It will" Malon said.
Link leaned toward her and kissed her on the lips. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back. He leaned closer to her and she fell back against the couch's arm. He kissed her deeper and wrapped his arms around her back.
Talon opened one eye and watched the couple on the couch. He smiled and turned over. 'There perfect for each other' Talon thought as he really fell asleep.
Okay!!!! Did you like a lot!! Please review. Also could you maybe read my other story Love and Obsession if you have anytime. Thanx.
