Chapter 10   Is He Coming Back?

A/n: Well, let me tell you, I'm kind of mad at Fanfiction.net. I put my little stars and curvy lines as separators, but lately it's not showing up. So, it's confusing to read. They won't even do my smiley faces. I'll have to come up with another way to do things. Then, they don't let me log in for about a week. I seriously thought that maybe they had deleted my account. 'Sigh' This Sucks! Also, I'm trying to hold back Link's arrival as much as possible, so don't expect it anytime soon. I've been neglecting my other story so I could write this one. I don't know what I want to happen next in my other story. I'm at a loss. I know what I want to happen, but not in the upcoming chapter. I have everything played out at the end. I'm just having trouble with what should happen in the middle of the story. This BITES!! But with this story, you don't have to worry. It's coming to the end, and I assure you, it will be worth it! I'm still thinking of a sequel for this story, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure if any one would like to read it or have one at all . . . .

She was sitting at the edge of the woods looking at the morning sun as it rose to the pale sky. 'Why, why hasn't he come back yet?' She sat there thinking. It had been over a month and he still hadn't returned. 'Maybe he won't come back . . . . Maybe, he really is gone.' She thought as she looked to the ground.

She got up and dusted her clothes off as she headed towards the Lost Woods. It had been her favorite place to go ever since she had visited this place and made it her new home. She would go there, to sit and be alone. She loved being with the people there, but . . . They were her friends, but she liked it better when she was deep into the woods where few would go. In fact, only her and Sarah were the only ones that would even go near the forest. Sarah had been her best friend. One that would always be there for her ever since Link had left, but one day she said she was needed in the forest's Temple and she never returned. People that went in there would get lost and never return.

There were also, little creatures in there. The little kids if the forest said that that's what would happen to any that would get lost in the forest. She had seen one herself. They wouldn't let you get near them enough to actually get a good look at them, but from what she had seen, she didn't know if she wanted to get near them.

She got to her favorite place in The Lost Woods. It was a place where you could find little pink fairies everywhere. They would dance around you and giggle. She thought they were adorable. She loved to sit there and watch them; sometimes she would even play with them. They were very tricky, and very hard to play with, but she enjoyed it. It got her mind off some of the things that would bother her. Some of the fairies seemed to notice when something was wrong, and would come up and ask her what would be wrong. She always told them it was nothing. They would give her a sad look them giggle and fly off. They could never stay sad for long.

This day she had seen monsters all about the lost woods. They had steadily become stronger and grew in numbers ever since Sarah had gone. She had a cut on her left arm from where one of them had tried to stab her and missed but accomplished in leaving her a very deep and painful cut. She sat down and watched they fairies dance around each other and giggle like they usually did, but today they weren't as cheerful. One came up and healed her cut even though she refused, it had just given her a sad look and healed it. More and more fairies would come up to her they asked the same thing.

"What's wrong? You have been more depressed lately. What is wrong brave one? Tell us, your secret shall be safe with us," they all chanted. 'Should I tell them? Maybe they'll have they answer.' She thought hopefully. She decided to tell them as they kept circling her in a small dance that seemed to comfort her. One would say, 'Yes, I see.' Or something close to that.

She had finished telling the story when they replied, "Link was are friend as you are ours. We know where he has gone off to. He will return. You must have patience. It will be a long wait, but do not fret for he will return." They said. They went around her and shot off in the other direction and huddled together whispering. They often did this, so it didn't bother her.

They came back softly singing and dancing slowly around her. She loved it when they sang. It had always seemed to comfort her and she would drift off to sleep. It became harder to keep her eyes open as they sang her their lullaby. She laid down on the soft grass and closed her eyes letting sleep take over thinking, 'Will he ever come back?'

Even though the fairies had given her some assurance; she still wasn't to sure about there answer. "Is he coming back?" She whispered as one lone tear silently crept down her face to the grass.

A/n: Remember, I have revised my chapters and this would be the first time she had even thought of crying. Even if it was just one little tear. You really have to re-read it. They sound SO much better. Well then read and review. Tell me what yu think!!!
