Disclamer:I don't own the zelda characters, they just get me attention.
A/N:Hi all!! Merry Christmas. I just got a new laptop, so I can write more. Yay! I have two now, lol. Ok, I'll stop bragging and start writing.
Link and Malon sat looking at each other from across the table. They both had been a bit quiet since the incident with the bow.
Malon wondered why Link had gotten so upset over a bow. Maybe it wasn't the bow, maybe he had just wanted to make her happy. She looked away at the ground. Link started to say.
She looked up again, He frowned, Why didn't you tell me that you were in trouble at the ranch, I could have came to save you earlier.
She bit her lip and said softly, I thought, well, I thought you would get in trouble Link.
She looked him smack in the eyes, Your...the hero of time, and I didn't want to get you in trouble just because my family was in a little trouble.
He snorted.
A little trouble?!? You were so mistreated you were about to die, if Navi and I hadn't found you...
She looked down at the wooden floor, Oh...I forgot to thank you for that.
There was silence.
She heard the screeching of the chair against the floor and Link walking up to her. He brushes her cheek softly with his hand, looked down at her, and kneeled by her chair.
He tilted her head up softly and looked straight into her eyes, You've gone through so much, why are you so polite with everyone around you.
It's hard... She choked. But I have to keep my faith up. A smile spread across her face, I know you can save hyrule, I know you'll rid the evil out of everything. I guess...it was you who kept my faith up.
She stood up and threw her arms around him, which caught him by surprise. She buried her face in his shoulder and sobbed, It's been so aweful!
He put his hand on the back of her head and whispered, shhh...it's ok.
She continued to cry softly. He reached down and grabbed her legs and picked her up.
They walked out of the restaurant, and walked all the way to Zora's River. He set her down on the soft grass and she splashed some water onto her face.
I'm sorry, I kind of lost control of myself.
It sounded like you needed to cry.
I've cried alot, but all of it is mostly from pain
He reached out and wrapped his arms around her, and held her close.
She leaned her head on his shoulder and reached down and held his hand. He smiled and ran his hand through her hair. Things were ok now.
A/N:Another kind of uneventful chapter!
