CHAPTER 13

Three's a company

To her surprise, Zelda woke up to find her night had been dreamless. The sunrise had woke her up, and she was in the room alone. She found it an opportunity to heal herself when no one saw.

She recited an incantation, which made the wounds on her back slowly disappear. She sighed, no longer feeling the pain. She observed the room, seeing what was in it.

A chair sat next to her bed, a door to the left, and a window to the right. Something laid on the chair. It was her dress. She failed to notice they had taken it off to bandage her back. They had replaced it with a new one, which she was wearing now.

She raced down to the dress and quickly searched through the pockets. With great relief, she found what she was looking for. Though the back of the dress was ripped to shreds, the piece of parchment had been unharmed.

Behind her, she heard the door click open. Quickly, she stood up, standing towards the door with the parchment behind her back. It was Link who had walked in, his expression was curious.

"Morning. What's that you have?", he asked, indicating to what she was hiding. Zelda thought. For some reason she didn't want him to know.

"It's…it's a prescription for medicine so I don't just faint in public all the time.", she lied. Link raised an eyebrow.

"I thought you didn't want to stop those memories from coming back.", he asked, but changed the subject by adding, "Aren't you supposed to be resting in bed?"

Zelda smiled lightly. "Alongside from transporting myself to a high room, I can heal myself too." He nodded in understanding, remembering that night that they snuck into Zelda's room. An awkward silence followed, leaving them both very uncomfortable.

Zelda cleared her throat, starting the conversation. "Look Link, I'm sorry I went out alone in the dark. I shouldn't have."

"There no reason to be sorry, Zel.", he said almost half heartedly. He came closer to her and sat on the bed. She sat down next to him.

"Yes, I there is. I probably worried you so much." She screamed in her mind, wishing it would have been Link who had saved her from the wolfos. Maybe then it would be a bit easier to talk to him.

He looked at her with caring eyes. "As long as your safe, I'm happy." She melted at this. Why was he so wonderful like this? He didn't even know about her secret. He had no idea of the memories she was recovering of him. What would he say if she told him? She already lied about the antidote.

She took him into a tight embrace, burying her head into his chest. "I'm sorry", she whispered, knowing that she was not going to tell him these things anytime soon. Link patted her back, giving her comfort, but all the while making her guilty of not telling him the truth.

"Come on.", he said. "Let's go outside to get some air." Link took her hand as the walked outside. She was hoping to take a today off from investigating and just spend it with Link, but her plans shattered when she saw Toby waiting for them.

Even if he saved her life, all she wanted to do know was be with Link, and only Link. Zelda put on her best, fake smile and said hello to Toby.

"Why Zelda, why are you not at rest?", asked the hooded Toby. Goddesses, why did he have to wear a hood?

"Uh…. I'm a fast healer.", she replied. "Me and Link are going out for the day." She tried to walk passed him, but he got in the way.

"Sounds fun!", exclaimed Toby.

"Yes, so we must be going…" Zelda moved once more, only to be followed.

"Mind if I join?", asked Toby. Something inside for some reason made Zelda not want him around. She was starting to get annoyed, and so was Link, but that was just normal for him.

Zelda sighed, knowing the only way to go was the polite way. She didn't feel like losing any friends at the moment, and to point out he did save her life. That deserved something back.

"Do you have a horse, Toby?", she asked, hoping the answer would be no.

"But of course.", he responded. "It's just outside the town walls."

'This is going to be a long day', thought Zelda. She signaled for him to follow them.

Outside the walls, Link called Epona and Anastasia. Toby's horse was already there. The horse looked oddly familiar.

"Toby, have you ever been to Hyrule?", she asked. Link was trotting beside her.

It took him a second to answer. "I can't say I have.", he replied. The conversation ended at that. The rest of the ride was rather quiet. Toby was in front of them. Zelda found it an opportunity to talk to Link.

She leaned over to get close to him. "Sorry bout this, I didn't expect it.", whispered Zelda.

"Why are you apologizing? It's not our fault.", he whispered back. "Can't a guy take a hint?" Annoyance growing in his voice.

"Guess not.", sighed Zelda.

"Ride with me?", he asked, changing the subject. She looked at him confused. Wasn't she?

"Huh?" He held an arm around her waist, and hoisted her over in front of him, leaving Annie on her own still walking forward.

His hands wrapped around her waist and held there. She leaned her head back to rest on his shoulder, closing her eyes. Trying hard to relax, but failing due to a nagging thought.

'Tell Link. Tell him about the past. No, It wouldn't make much sense to him, it doesn't even make sense to me. I don't even know what's going on. He will know in time, but what if he gets mad? O goddesses!' Unable to clear her mind, she got very frustrated.

'So, if I knew Link as a kid, and all I remember is being depressed, does that mean I wasn't really depressed and all it was, was a false memory? Did I really try and jump into Gerudo River? Of course, I remember that vividly. There's no way it could be just put there. Was there?'

Her thoughts were interrupted when she felt that they had stopped. Opening her eyes to see where they were, they were in the middle of Romania Ranch. Getting off, she asked Link why they came here.

"Creamia invited us. You didn't hear me say that?", he asked surprised. "I told Toby when you were sitting with me. Surly you heard."

"I guess not. I was too into my thoughts.", she said. He nodded, taking her hand and entering the house.

Right when Creamia opened the door, Zelda's stomach growled, making her cheeks turn crimson. A laugh cam from Creamia, Link, and Toby.

"Hungry I see.", chuckled Creamia, gladly opening the door to her visitors. "Come, I made lunch for all of you."

After lunch, Creamia invited Zelda to come up to her room, leaving Toby and Link to themselves. Silence was all that followed in that room. The two didn't even bother to look at each other.

Link honestly couldn't stand this guy. He had kept from Zelda that they actually didn't go out looking for her together. Link had gone to the Zora's to see if she was there, then headed towards the swamp when Lulu said she went there. On his way, he saw Toby, the man he hadn't even seen the face of, holding Zelda in his arms.

She was bloody, with a bunch of scratches on her back. Toby had said that it was wolfos that attacked her, but Link never let down his guard. Who knows what could have happened back there. He could just be making that up. Link hated himself for letting her go alone. He never trusted Toby, and it wouldn't be any time soon that he would. If it wasn't for Zelda, Toby would not be here with them right now.

'How did he even know Zelda was there? Maybe she was with him.', thought Link. He found himself glaring at a spot in the room from his anger. 'Zelda wouldn't do that. Would she? I mean she was acting very odd today… Oh come on, your overreacting, Link. There aren't any signs. I just hate Toby for some reason.'

Upstairs, Zelda and Creamia were sitting on the bed, having a conversation.

"…So, where's your sister?", asked Zelda.

"She went out to deliver milk today.", said Creamia.

Zelda thought whether or not to ask her something. "…Creamia? Can I ask you a question?", asked Zelda. She nodded.

"Do you…were you friends with Link a long time ago?", she asked. Creamia gave her an odd look.

"You mean when he was like twelve?", she asked, trying to see where Zelda was getting to.

"Yes, I mean when he saved the town.", said Zelda. Creamia's eyes grew wide.

"You know about that? I thought me and my sister were dreaming.", exclaimed Creamia. She sat up straight now, interested in the subject.

"No, it actually happened. It's just that no one in Clocktown or Link remembers.", said Zelda.

"And I thought we were going crazy.", whispered Creamia. "When did you say you met Link?"

"To tell you the truth, I'm not certain.", said Zelda. This girl seemed trustful enough. She decided to tell her story.

After Zelda was done explaining everything that had been happening, Creamia looked as if she were in a trance or something. "Can I trust you to tell no one?", asked Zelda.

"Never…your secret is safe with me.", sad Creamia. "But, what are you going to do about it, princess?" Creamia had not known that Zelda was of royal blood before, she just assumed she was of high status.

"Please, don't call me that. I told you I left that life to be here. I'm not a princess anymore. As for what I'm going to do. I'll just keep waiting to get more flashbacks until my memory has fully returned.", said Zelda. It was starting to get dark. "Oh my, we've been talking for forever. I think we should go."

"Your welcome to stay here.", offered Creamia. Zelda smiled in appreciation.

"Thank you…I'll tell Link. If those two didn't kill each other yet.", she joked. Creamia stayed in her room as Zelda quietly headed down the stairs.

She heard Link's voice and abruptly stopped. She cocked her neck to peek into the room. Link was still sitting in the spot she left him. Toby was also still sitting in his chair.

"So, Toby. It's dark. Why don't you take your hood off?", said Link.

"I'd rather not.", said Toby. They weren't looking at each other. Both their heads were facing opposite walls.

"Come on Toby. Just us two. What could it hurt?",. Link urged. Zelda couldn't believe this. Before this conversation could go on any longer, she made her way down the rest of the stairs.

Hurriedly walking towards Link, she grabbed his hand and dragged him outside. "Mind if I borrow Link for a moment?", she asked Toby. He turned and shook his head, then turned back to the wall.

Zelda closed the door behind her. They were standing outside. "Let's take a walk.", muttered Zelda. They headed to the outer walls of the ranch.

"What did you think you were doing?", she asked angrily.

"I don't trust him Zelda.", he said simply. Zelda stopped him and held him by the shoulders so he would look in her eyes.

"So that gives you the right to pressure him?" She felt like she was a mother, questioning her naughty child.

"I'm sorry Zelda. I was mad. You didn't hear our whole conversation. He said some things.", said Link. Zelda's expression changed instantly.

"Like what?", she asked. Link started walking again.

"Nothing, Zelda. Don't worry about it.", said Link with a frown. Zelda jumped in front of him.

"No, what?", she insisted. Her hands were one her hips, waiting for an answer.

"He was pestering me about not being the one who saved you. That's all. Don't worry about it.", said Link. She could tell he was only telling some of the truth, but was greatly affected anyway.

Zelda's expression softened. "What?", she asked weakly. "Why would he do such a thing?" She was already beating herself up for it, why did it have to resurface again, especially like that.

"I said don't worry about it, Zel.", he said, starting to get annoyed. Zelda held a hand to his face, letting her silky fingers caress it.

"Do you actually care what he thinks?", she asked. "Link, no matter what happens, whoever saved my or not, you're the only one that matters to me. I love you."

He was about to say the same when Zelda stopped him by pressing her soft lips against his in a sweet kiss. When she broke from him, she spoke again. "You seem to not notice that. Forget what he thinks. It's what I think that matters."

"And what do you think?", questioned Link.

"I think you're the only one for me. You'll always be the only one.", said Zelda, in an almost whisper. She was close again.

This time, Link made the move, taking his hands on her waist and pulling her close into a kiss. Her hands rested on the back of his head taking it in. After a moment she realized where they were and stopped.

"Creamia said we could stay for the night.", she said looking over at the small house.

"Alright. What about Toby?", asked Link. Zelda shrugged at the question.

"I guess he'll just have to go home.", said Zelda. Link nodded.

"You… want to go inside now?", he asked.

She grinned "Give it a few minutes, then we'll go." ….
