Sorry for the wait!
Laid Back:
"Malon!" a voice came from the house of Lon Lon Ranch, "Malon! It dinner time!"
Malon and Link were hanging out in the corral with Epona. Epona was a great horse. She was a beautiful brown thoroughbred with a white mane and tail. Link had won here in the same horse race that freed the ranch from Ingo's clutches, "Ok daddy, I'll be there in a second!" Malon yelled out to him.
Talon smiled and saw Link next to her, "Hey, Link is invited to join us if he'd like!"
Link looked down at Malon and smiled, "Would you like to join us, Link?"
"I would love to."
The two brought Epona into her stall and headed towards the house. The sun was setting and the landscape was beautiful. Especially Malon. Link couldn't keep his eyes off her. The way the sun came down on her red hair only made even more vibrant. The two go to the house and walked in.
"There ya are! Have a seat you two." Talon said happily as he set down the big juicy steak.
"Looks great sir!" Link stared at the meat and couldn't wait to dig in.
"Sure is my boy! Here sit down over here," Talon pointed to a seat next to his, "I'll sit here and Malon can sit there." Malon sat down as did Link followed by Talon. On the table sat water, the steak, and some vegetables, "Well, lets dig in people, I'm starvin!"
Talon quickly reached for the steak and took a large piece then piled vegetables on his plate. Talon started swallowing his food whole and all Link and Malon could do is stare. Talon stopped for a second and looked at the shocked two, "Aren't you guys gonna eat?"
Link just gasped then Malon spoke up, "Dad, are you hungry?"
"What?" he asked confused as a piece of steak hanging from his mouth fell to the ground. Malon's face turned red with embarrassment. And she then heard a sound coming from the other side of the table.
Link started cracking up and Talon stared at him with a confusing look, "What's so funny Link?"
"I will never understand you sir. I never knew someone could eat like that."
Talon stared at Link with a discerning look. Link stopped laughing and stared back at him. Talon then burst out laughing, "Ha ha, I like you son, I really like you!"
Link slowly stopped laughing and kept a small grin. He looked over at Malon and smiled towards her. The two stared into each other's eyes then looked away. Talon noticed his daughter's little moment with Link and snickered. He knew the two had feelings for eachother. They reminded him of Malon's mother and himself when they were young. They were to shy to admit their love for each other. Talon could see it in their eyes. The 3 then finished up the dinner and Talon announced he was going to retire. That left Malon to do the dishes. She got up and Link offered his help. She accepted and the two cleared the table and washed the dishes in silence, "I'll see you two in the morning."
"Goodnight sir."
"Night daddy."
"You two be good, alright?"
"Ok, daddy, good night." Talon headed upstairs and Malon turned to Link, "What would you like to do?"
"Rest. I haven't taken a good rest for at least a year. All the training has made me to busy to just sit down and be lazy. I probably sound stupid. I'm sure you don't want to do something." Link looked over to Malon who was smiling.
"No not really, it sounds good. I'd love to just lay around and do nothing." The two walked into the living room and link dropped down onto the sofa. The fire Talon made before he went to bed was still burning. Its warmth was comforting. Malon sat down next to who Link was reclining himself on the table in front of the couch.
The two sat next to each other rather nervously, but Malon was the one to move in closer. She rested her head on Link's left shoulder and he looked down at her. He took his left arm and rested it around her neck and shoulder. Malon lifted her legs and rested them down to the other end of the couch. Link then did the same while he still held her head on his shoulder. Malon turned on her side to make room for Link and she cuddled up close. She then closed her eyes and began to drift off to sleep. Link held her against and looked into the fire. He had never been so happy in his life. He was holding the girl he loved in the perfect setting, in front of the warm fire. Finally laid back, Link slowly fell asleep with one thing on his mind. Malon.
Ok there it is! I meant to make it long, but I wanted to get it done this week. The next chapter will be long. Quite of few things need to happen. Sorry for its shortness and the wait. O ya still looking for a beta reader. Plz R&R!
