I'm baaaack! Bet you missed me, huh? *silence*. You didn't? Well, I can't
blame you, I'm pretty annoying. I want to apologize for not updating, but I
really have no idea where this fic is going. I'll try to write a good plot
line, but I've never written a serious romance before, so it may turn out
to be rather silly. But hey, can't blame me for trying!
Some of this chapter will be from semi-Nabooru-POV. You'll get her views on Malon staying in Gerudo Fortress, and Sheik leaving her behind, for example.

Malon found Sheik and Nabooru after some searching. They were standing near the entrance to Gerudo Fortress, Sheik with his lance held up before him. Nabooru was waving some kind of garment at him, shouting obscenities at the top of her voice.
When she finally paused for breath, Sheik seized the opportunity to speak.
"We've had this argument before, Nabooru. I will not put on any other garment than the traditional Sheikah uniform. There is nothing you can say or do to change that. Now that that's settled, would you please stop pestering me?" He arched an eyebrow at her.
"Or are you to busy trying to come up with new and improved curse words to describe me?"
"I'm only trying to make your style less boring! Please, if you would just let me change the colour of you shirt- "
"NO."
" Fine, have it your way!"
"Thank you, I rather think I will. Back to the more important topic. Will you let Malon stay here while I go back to Hyrule?"
"Of course! You didn't even have to ask! Go away now, Sheikah-boy, and stop bothering me; I've got more important tasks to attend to."
She shooed him away towards Gerudo Valley, and turned to Malon, who had watched the exchange silently. The girl was watching Sheiks retreating back, allowing Nabooru to get a good look at the new-comer. She was rather tall, even if she didn't match Sheik by a long-shot. But then again, no one was. She had the trademark red hair of the Gerudo, but she had blue eyes instead of the customary red or brown. She wasn't drop-dead gorgeous, but if she paid a bit more attention to her looks, she could become quite beautiful.
Nabooru wasn't stupid, and she had seen those looks Sheik gave her. It might be worth working on. He hadn't stared at her with absolute worship in his eyes, but there was something there.
" So, Malon was it?"
"Yes, ma'am."
" Oh, there's no need to be formal! Call me Nabooru, everyone else does. Anyway, Malon, let's get you settled in. You'll be staying here for some time, and you might as well get comfortable, because if I know Sheik right, and I'm sure I do, he's got something big going on. "
" Alright, Nabooru."
" What do you think of him? Sheik, I mean." Nabooru asked, watching the girls face closely.
" Think about him?" Malon asked, confused." He's nice, I suppose. I met him only a couple of days ago, and I haven't had time to get to know him yet."
" Trust me, Malon, I've been around Sheik for years, and I still can't claim to know him all that well, so don't feel alone."
Laying an arm around Malon's shoulder, Nabooru began to work on her plan. This was the opportunity she had been waiting for, for so long.

And that's it for this chapter. Hopefully, you'll get to know Sheik a bit better in the next chapter, and Nabooru's plan will show a bit more.(I think.) - Metallicafangirl.
