Link sat in the park, waiting for Zelda to show up. The crisp clean air sifted through his hair and separated the strands and gave them life, the sun bouncing off the strands which danced in the wind.
Link smoothed his hair back down and leaned back on the bench. He glanced at some children that were playing ball. Another child was walking up to the child and started talking to one of the other children.
Link glanced down at the ground and frowned when a shadow passed over him and did not move. He looked up and saw a tall young man about 15. He had shining purple hair and hazel eyes.
"Hello." His voice rang out in a tenor tone. Link nodded hello. "I assume that your Link, right?" He asked Link. Once again, Link nodded. "I figured you would be, Zelda has talked about you long enough."
Link's head snapped at the mention of Zelda. "Excuse me?" He quite frankly did not enjoy talking to this stranger, especially if he knew who Zelda was. Kafei laughed softly. "Do not be weary of me forest boy, I am a friend of Zelda's. I assumed she has mentioned me to you. My name is Kafei."
Link let out a sign of relief under his breath. "Ah yes, I know who you are now." Kafei sat down. "I know your waiting on Zelda, but she won't be here till 7 tonight, her tournament has gone overtime."
Link sighed again. "Oh damn, I was hoping to see her earlier so that we could spend more time together." Kafei smiled. "No, I'm afraid not, but I will be spending all day tomorrow with her tomorrow."
Link gritted his teeth. "That's nice to know." He said, trying to show his annoyance. He glanced over at the children again and saw that the two boys were arguing, He turned back to Kafei and resisted trying to sock him in one in his pale face.
"So, how is your life Link? Anything exciting?" Kafei asked as he settled down on the bench. Link really didn't want to sit by Kafei, but he forced himself to be kind; after all, that's his girlfriend's best friend.
"No, not really." He said. He turned to Kafei. "Hey Kafei, have you noticed anything weird or unusual about Zelda? Lately, she's been kinda spacey around me." Kafei shrugged.
"I don't know, it may be the fact that she could be getting tired of you." He said airily. Link started up. "What do you mean by that?" He demanded. Kafei laughed, which annoyed Link.
"Nothing except that she's been considering going out with me." Kafei said with a smile pasted on his face. Link blinked, allowing the words to register. "That is not true!" He sputtered out angrily.
"Can't face the truth, can you Link?" Kafei said with tease in his voice. Link jolted up and stood infront of Kafei. "Take that back, you damn liar." Link said darkly. Kafei stood up and faced him.
The two boys that Link had been watching were now arguing with one another. One of the boys shoved the other and they started bickering.
Kafei smiled once again and Link resisted punching him. "Listen you, I don't know what kind of lies your trying to plant in my head, but I know that Zelda does care for me and she won't break up with me, got that?" Link said.
Kafei only turned his head. "So what? At least I get to see the girl I love everyday." Kafei said quietly with a smile. Link fell back as if Kafei had just struck him. "You bitch! Take that back!" Link shouted.
The two boys who were arguing were now about to tackle one another wrestle when one of the girls came running and separated them. They both grumbled and one of the walked away.
Kafei shrugged. "I tried to be nicer earlier." He said softly. "Shut the hell up." Link said. "Your welcome to make me try." Kafei said icily. Link stepped infront of him. "Alright then, get ready to go the healer when I get done with you!"
"Oh my Goddesses, guys stop!" Zelda said running up and jumping in between them. Zelda shoved them apart and stood in the middle. "What were you guys arguing about?!" She exclaimed.
Link glared at Kafei. 'Nothing, other than planting a bunch of damn lies in my head." Kafei turned to Zelda with his large eyes and looked at her innocently. "Nothing Zelda, he started it, saying that I was taking you away from him."
Zelda blinked and Link's jaw dropped to the ground. "That is a damn lie!" He swore. Zelda shook her head. "I think it'd al be best if we went home." She said. Link glared at Kafei before Zelda dragged him away.
Kafei smiled and turned his back. Just as I thought… he's jealous of any guy Zelda is with…
* * * *
Link walked beside Zelda as they both headed towards her house. "Wow… He said all that?" She asked him softly. Link could only nodded, he was afraid that he might shout at her.
Zelda sighed and shook her head. "I would figure that he would… Link, he has a crush on me and would do anything to rid you so that he can be with me." She said softly. Link looked up with startled eyes.
"What?! No, I won't let him do that! You won't either, will you?" He asked her worriedly. "I won't Link." She said. He turned to her and kissed her softly. She kissed him back and they walked back hand in hand. Zelda noticed however, that he was a bit out of it as they walked back.
What could be on his mind…?
