Twenty minutes later, Link walked up to Zelda's front door. He quickly looked himself over. A large black leather jacket which was zipped half-way up partially covered a white T-shirt. His pants were also black, and sagged a bit.
Zelda was waiting nervously by the door.
"Don't worry about it," Peach said, massaging her sister's shoulders after she and Nicole had been told everything.
"What if I make an idiot of myself??" Zelda asked worriedly.
"You won't," Peach assured her. "Wow, you must really like this guy."
"What makes you say that??"
"Well, you've never exactly been this worried and anxious about a date like this before," Peach answered. "Just calm down and be yourself. You're going to be oooooookay, okay?"
"All right."
Zelda was wearing blue and black rubber braclets on one arm, army boots, a velvety black jacket, and a khaki skirt (complete with zippered pockets). Her shirt was black with a flying kitten on it.
Peach turned off the air conditioner. "Why is it so cold outside?" she asked. "It's supposed to be warm in summer!!"
"Mother Nature must be making up for that warm Christmas we had," Nicole suggested. "That sucked!"
The doorbell rang, causing the three of them to jump. "C'mon, Nicole," Peach giggled, taking her daughter into her room.
Gulping, Zelda opened the door and smiled warmly. "Hi!"
"Hey," said Link, as she closed the door behind her. "Like motorbikes?"
For the first time, Zelda noticed a large black motorcycle parked in the streets. She gasped and ran towards it, laughing giddily.
"My Uncle had motorcycle just like this one!!" Zelda said. "He used to take me riding on it all the time!!"
"Really? That's cool," Link said. "I know a lot of girls who are nervous around cycles, and their mothers don't even let them come within ten feet of me!"
"Yes.....boys and bikes seem to have a bad reputation around here," Zelda laughed.
Link swung one leg over the motorcycle and motioned for Zelda to do the same behind him. Willingly, she did. He put on a large black helmet and handed one to Zelda.
"You're forgetting something," Link said, grinning.
"I am?"
"You should put your arms around me so you don't fall off," Link advised her. "Didn't your Uncle tell you that?"
"Oh yeah, how stupid of me," Zelda muttered. As Link started to rev up the bike, she smiled and put her arms around his waist. She let out a subtle gasp as they lurched forward and rode off. It had been a while since her last time on a motorcycle.
"So what's the plan for tonight?" Zelda asked.
Link shrugged. "I was thinkin' dinner then a movie, or vice versa or whatever. Do have a preferance?"
"Dinner and a movie sounds great to me!" Zelda sighed.
At a spotlight, Zelda gently rested her head on Link's back. He grinned and felt his heart beat faster. "S-so where d'you think we should eat?"
"Hmm....how about one of those retro 50's diners?" Zelda asked. "Like Johnny Rocket's or something?"
"Sure, I go there all the time!" Link consented, turning left when the light switched to green.
A few minutes later, they pulled into the diner and got out. Zelda took off her helmet and shook her head of blonde hair. "Well, that was fun! I love motorcycles, but we've never been able to get one."
"Yeah, they're cool."
Link and Zelda headed towards the entrance and were greeted by a waitress named Cindy, who was loudly chewing some Bazooka gum.
"How many?" she asked before blowing an enormous bubble.
"Two," Link answered.
"Please follow me," she said in a monotone. They stopped at a booth after walking two paces. "Ah. Young love," she said in the same boring voice, making Link and Zelda blush as she walked away.
"It certainly feels nice to actually be eating at a restaurant and not be serving at it," Zelda sighed.
"Yeah," Link said. "I have this weird feeling like I should dash into the kitchen and help deliver all the food, you know?"
"It's weird, isn't it?" Zelda laughed. She picked up a menu and gasped. "JMJ!!"
Link gave her a confused look.
"Sometimes I say JMJ instead of Jesus, Mary and Joseph because it takes less time and it......like.......never mind. But they have Shirley Temples!! It's been years since I've had a Shirley Temple!!"
"That is so weird," Link chuckled. "I love them too! Once I was at this place and I asked for a Shirley Temple, and they said those were for girls, and that Roy Rogers were for boys. So I got the Roy Rogers and they used Coke instead of Sprite." He wrinkled his nose in disgust. "I hate Coke!"
"Well, that's where we're different," Zelda said. "I practically live on it! And there's probably another thing we don't have in common: I'm a vegetarian."
"Really? Cool. I try so hard to be one, but I just couldn't live without chicken or corn dogs, I don't think. Mostly I stay away from red meat, though. The occasional burger does it for me. . .which is what I'm ordering."
"I guess I'll just have the cheese sandwhich. And a chocolate malt! Gotta have that chocolate malt!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
After dinner, Link and Zelda walked across the street and turned the corner to get to a movie theater.
"Let's see....what's playing?" Zelda wondered aloud.
"Hmm.....Freaky-Friday, Uptown Girls, Tomb Raider, Whale Rider....wanna see that? It's supposed to be really good."
"Um, okay."
So they bought tickets for Whale Rider and went inside the theater.
About ten minutes in, both of them were thinking, 'Man, this is the dullest thing I have EVER had to sit through!' But they didn't want to mention this, because they believed that the other was enjoying it.
Then half-way through the movie, Zelda felt something brush against her leg. She looked down, but didn't see anything there. 'Must have been the air vent,' she thought to herself.
Seconds later, she felt it again: something brushing up and down her exposed leg. The third time this happened, convinced it was a bug or something, she reached down to flick it away. Then she realized it wasn't a bug: someone was running their hand up and down her leg!
Her eyes widened, and she instinctively looked at Link. His arms were folded as he stared at the screen. Slowly, Zelda turned her head slightly and glanced behind her out of the corner of her eye. She saw a middle-aged man reach down below her seat.
Quickly, Zelda nudged Link and stood up. She jerked her head in a way of telling him to follow her and they left the theater.
"What's wrong?" Link asked. "Are you okay?"
"There was some guy behind me and he kept on running his hand up and down one of my legs!" she squealed. "Sorry, but I just had to get out of there!"
Link looked a little surprised, but felt he shouldn't have been. Zelda DID have very nice legs, after all. He stared at them for a moment, then looked up at her face. "Actually, it's fine. To tell you the truth, I was bored to death."
"Yeah, I was too. I would've left sooner and spared my leg, but I thought you were liking it."
"Well I thought YOU were liking it," Link laughed as they walked towards the motorcycle. "Maybe we should've gone to see Tomb Raider."
"Yeah, maybe tomorrow or something. It's not playing anymore."
"Okay. I'll drive you home."
A small while later, they reached Zelda's house. She got off the bike and turned around to face Link. "Thanks for taking me out, Link. I really had fun....except for that freaky guy in the theater." She gave his cheek a small kiss. "You're sweet. Night!"
Link could only smile as she skipped up the steps and went into the house. He rode away, his grin getting bigger and bigger as he drove faster. She'd kissed him.
As he walked inside his apartment, his roommate Luigi was there to greet him.
"So how-a was-a the date, lover-a boy?" he asked.
"It was great!" Link answered. "She even kissed me good-bye!!"
"Not-a bad. I didn't-a get a kiss-a from-a my girlfriend until-a our fif-a teenth date! You lucky-a guy!"
Walking into the bathroom, Link silently agreed with Luigi: he was lucky. He'd finally found a girl he really liked.
