Author's note: I would like to thank you all for reading this! I haven't wrote fanfiction in a long time but then this came up in my head and well, yeah. I just thought no one would read this thing, ya know?

Reader responses:

Hyrule Master: Well, I thank you for reading this! I've read one of your stories and I just loved it! Though I don't think you'll need a review from me since you've got a lot already, right? Anyways, yes, I wont overload the romance, I'll be sticking to the Teen rating, okay? And yes, I will be alternating points of view by each chapter sometimes in chapters, I will switch them if needed. Often, when I write, I will do that, I am also known as Yuna-Blueo'Hara, that is my other account, since my friend isn't using hers and don't want it, I'm using it to put it to use! Well, enjoy this chapter!

Blondie91: Thank you for enjoying it so far. I hope that you will be enjoying this chapter I got stuff coming.

Sweswe: So far, I've been thinking to give Link some competition and well, yeah it's going to be hard for Zelda, if anyone thinks that I'm copying them, it's a no, I think, well more like inspirations but it's the thought that counts right? Okay then, off with the chapter.

Oh, and I haven't said this yet since I forgot and haven't wrote any fics for about two months or something.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Legend of Zelda, though I wished I had Link. But, I own the Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask anime graphic novel and the games…!

Chapter 3

One is the All and All is the One.

Sometimes I didn't just get that Zelda. Women were always hard to cope with but usually it's because the male that makes the situations happen…. Walking to an empty room that was beside Zelda's I referred it to a guestroom that was prepared for me, besides there would be no better place, Zelda seemed to be angry at me at the moment.

Sighing, I closed the door and looked around. Clean but not as big as Zelda's own room, this was somewhat smaller but it's quality was still inviting. Running my hands through my hair, I already felt like this was to much. Often, I would just ask for a regular room in some inn, never had I slept in such a room so thus, it was an honour. And Zelda… Shaking my head, raised a brow and tried to convince myself that I didn't do anything wrong to make her like that. Though I did somewhat ignored her… . It is just that in the past, I have done something to much for her liking. Narrowing my eyes, I looked out the balcony and at the purity of the blue sky with the white clouds drifting in the wind.

The wheels of life keep turning, spinning without control. The wheels of the heart keep yearning for the sound of the singing soul….

Shaking my head I tried to forget about those words which haunted my mind every now and then. The meant something but it was something to keep for myself but one day… someone would have to know. Zelda… perhaps?

"Aaarghh!" Why did my mind keep on drifting to Zelda? Was it something that I did?…. Sighing, I raised a brow and turned towards the door, standing there, just gazing upon it. Link, sometimes you can be one who is such a jerk. Of course, you did something. You did it, you fix it, I told myself. One thing that you wanted was to love her and this is your chance, she told you that she loved you and yet, you somewhat refuse to accept? Link, you jerk.

Smiling cockily, I walked and opened the door. I sighed and turned to my left which where Zelda's room was located without doubt, thought there was something that stopped me from opening the door. It was if I was scared to face her… afraid that she would just reject me and turn my down this time. I didn't want to face rejection but one thing about women was that they don't always say what they really mean. Though there is a slight chance that she didn't want me around anymore… or that she… she loved someone else now. But so fast? Nonsense.

Pulling my self to together, I knocked a couple of times and waited, heart pounding for a reason that I didn't want to confront. Shifting to one foot to another, I was begging to think that she wasn't going to answer and let me in anymore and so, I turned and started to walk when she actually said something. "Who is it?"

Biting my bottom lip, I turned and replied with a mere small voice, "It is, I, Link." For some reason I felt that she was going to start and protest against me and send me to my room and be alone thinking about what I had done to her. But she didn't say anything else and so I continued. "Zelda, I, well, you see, I didn't mean what I meant back there. I apologize if I had hurt you in anyway…." It seemed like there was nothing else for me to say and at right timing, Zelda spoke in time to stop me in my tracks.

"On my behalf, please come in. I, too, have something to tell you which is about earlier…." her voice drifted off and I smiled. Now I could make up for it, and for her. Sometimes, I could be so careless…

Closing the door behind me, I saw her sitting on the foot of her bed, just there seeming like she had been waiting for me all this time. I started as I walked towards her, "Zelda, if there is anything that I could do to make it up to-" she raised a hand which silenced me.

"Link…" I took a seat beside her and she looked away as if she wanted to hide her face and avoid eye contact. "I have to say that I am sorry, for invading in your love life. I wish to say that I shouldn't have busted like that but it was just that…" her voice drifted as if the wind had swept it away to a faraway land.

"You love me, don't you? It's just because that you loved me, that you just wanted to have me," I had said without realizing it.

Her eyes narrowed and I was beginning to think that she was about to cry but she didn't, instead she faced me, and gave my a wry smile. "You know that Link," she whispered, eyes falling to the ground, "but do you love me. I just want to know, like before, if it is to hard of an answer than please accept that you do not have to answer."

My heart pounded as if it was trying to tell me that it was just in front of my eyes, the answer. She loved me, I loved her but why wouldn't I just confess, we knew that we loved each other already but I hadn't gave in just yet. I wouldn't face rejection but I just knew that something was holding me back….

The wheels of life keep turning, spinning without control. The wheels of the heart keep yearning for the sound of the singing soul. When nights are full with weeping, for sins of the past we've sown, tomorrow is ours for the keeping. Tomorrow the future shows….

It was those words but this was my chance. Would I just let those words get in my way and leave this situation behind in the past? I had heard and gotten those words somewhere but where, though? I couldn't remember and traces of it. Nothing seemed to tell me but I just let it go. Zelda was more important than those words, wasn't she? Yes, she was. Yes.

"Link?" I snapped out of my thoughts. Sure enough, she had noticed and I knew that she was waiting for an answer to her question. "Are you-" I leaned over without thought and planted a soft, feathery kiss on her full lips. Pulling back, I smiled and looked down at her pristine face. "Link… I."

"You can't believed that I just did that, can you, Zelda?" I had somewhat finished for her. I gave her a clumsy smile. "But there is one thing that I know and you might have noticed by now is that, I am very unskilled and kissing."

Zelda's eyes seem to fill with tears of happiness. "Link… no you aren't… that was just…" she trailed off, putting a hand over her lips and continued after smiling, "Link, you weren't bad at it at all…."

I gasped and sat up. I had fallen asleep. The last thing that I remembered was that I was looking out the window, thinking about the words that haunted me… then I sat on the bed and… fell asleep! Damn. I had left Zelda in her room, leaving her feeling miserable and now, it was night and who knew how late it was. Was I to go to her room and talk to her or leave her for the night to get mad at me tomorrow? Slowly, I sat up and pulled my tunic clumsily on. Rubbing my arms, suddenly noticing how cold it actually was in the air, I turned my head towards the door.

"Am I to go or, not?"

It sounded strange talking to myself with no one else in the room but me. Where the shadows of night leaked in from the windows and crawled into the lonely corners. I realized now that I had dreamt about Zelda about her full lips… in a lock with mine. But I knew that if we were together then that would somehow disrupt our journey.

Lifting a hand to my forehead I wiped away the sweat that was forming slowly above my eyebrows. Sighing hard, I dropped my hands and swung my legs to the side of the bed seeming not to want to think about anything at the moment.

I had some limits in life that I was always looking up at. It was to live, help others and not get my emotions in the way. But as time passed by I knew that I had grown feelings for people. Friends, some others like family and well someone to love. For so many years I was alone but not completely. I had my horse, and friends in the Kokiri Forest, like Saria… the thing was that I had never fitted in I was a Hylian not one of the Kokiri children. I was to be set free like one of the Hylians, where I could roam around the fields and not get scolded at. But as time flew by I knew that I needed help from others and couldn't just rely on myself.

Family.

Unlike me, other Hylians had families to care for and to be with in times of happiness and peril though I was one who didn't need all the support. Having Epona with me in my journeys, my time for leisure use seemed like enough but there was this feeling night after night that I felt, the feeling of needing to be with more humans. Someone to be with. I couldn't be with Epona forever, only if she wanted to. Sure might be loyal but she would also need some time for her being as well, am I right?

Slowly turning my head to face the window where the shadows spilled into the room as well as the moon's evening light, my eyes stared softly at the clouds and it seemed like I was taken off to a far away land.

Maybe someday I would travel to some faraway land where I could use time with my own carefree choices, with no troubles, where I could finally rest from being a hero… with Zelda.
