-Epilogue-
So, a couple years later, Layla and Link are 20, Zara and Nathaniel are 23 and 25, Nesira and Grasshopper are 19. Layla and Link's child is born, named Cami. She's 2, and Zamyla is 2 and a half. They're the best of friends, from what the parents can tell so far. Grasshopper and Nesira are, indeed, married and pregnant now, and Nesira is possibly one of the most dangerous women on the planet. Especially when she's hungry.
Here's a peek into their current lives...
"Laaaayla!" Link grabbed her round the waist, picking her up and spinning her in the air, then setting her down. She dipped her, and then kissed her. Layla sighed.
"You really are a lovey dovey twit, you know that?" she said.
"Lovey dovey, are you sure? I'm pretty sure I'm just horny."
"Pshhht, yeah. Listen you..." she propped herself up and was promptly pulled fully against Link, so that they were pressed together tightly. "...I told you, I only want one child."
"That may change..." purred the hero, kissing her again. He whispered in her ear. "Yeah, it'll definitely change when you see me naked again, I haven't forgotten how you said you can't resist me, that time in the shower..." Layla blushed, and then suddenly felt a tug on her skirt and looked down. There was Cami, looking up at her and Link. They had been so engrossed in the moment that they hadn't noticed her totter over.
"Mommy, can I pway?" said the toddler. Layla made an 'Awww, how cute' sound and picked up her daughter.
"I don't know, Daddy, can she play?" she held up her daughter under the arms, away from her so that the girl could show off her big, blue, Link-inherited puppy dog eyes. Link took her from Layla.
"I don't know. Are you sure you're grown up enough for this game?" Link asked, balancing her in the crook of his arm.
"I'm grown up, I'm grown up!" insisted the small girl.
"Alright, here we go!" Link hugged her to his chest and spun around, her in his arms. The little girl smiled and clapped her hands in glee, and laughed out loud when Link dropped her on the bed.
This family moment was suddenly interrupted by Nesira and Grasshopper, Nesira, as per usual, angry, and Grasshopper, also as per usual, a bit fearful. Nesira walked right past Link and stopped in front of Layla, Link walking over to Grasshopper to ask of what was going on.
"How did you do it, Layla? HOW. DID. YOU. DO IT. TWICE?"
"Well, the first time I didn't have a chioce, remember, and the second time, well, come on, look at the hunky slice of man meat over there!" Layla said rather loudly, so that Link could hear. He turned from Grasshopper and pointed at her, clicking his tongue and winking.
"This is no time for jokes! DID I ASK FOR A JOKE? DID I?"
"Nesira! You need to chill! What are you, PMSing?" Layla said, still joking around.
"NO! I'M EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE!" Nesira said, dropping the finger she had pointed at Layla and stomping her foot on the floor simultaneously with the word opposite.
"Okay, really, sit down, and I'll get us a drink, kay?"
"Alcoholic?"
"No, no alcohol for you, it's bad for the baby."
"I don't care."
"Well, the rest of us do." said Grasshopper sitting down next to her and putting an arm around her. Layla handed her a glass of orange juice.
"And YOU did this to me!" the girl glared at her husband.
"Hey!" said Grasshopper, putting his life on the line by standing up to this person that used to be Nesira. "It's not like you were reluctant! In fact, you initiated the whole thing! You were the dominant one! You started it, by--"
"Okay, thank you, we don't need the details, Grasshopper, buddy." said Link, stopping him.
"Oh, right." said Grasshopper. He quieted down and just sat next to Nesira.
The two coupled talked and drank for a few minutes, until Zara and Nathaniel appeared, with Zamayla. Cami looked up from her blocks in surprise.
"Zammyyyyyyyy!" she called, running to the girl after Zara put her down.
"Cami!" the other young girl said, hugging her friend. Cami led her to the blocks and they began to play.
"Awww, so cute." said Zara, walking over to the other occupants of the room with Nathaniel.
"Hey guys!" she said, standing in between grasshopper and Nathaniel, who stood next to Link, who leaned against Layla's dresser. He looked over at Nathaniel and held out a hand. They shared a handshake.
"How ya doin' man?"
"Pretty good, thanks, Link."
"So, Zara, how is it raising a child?" Nesira asked.
"Here we go again..." Layla said quietly to Link. Link looked stealthily over at her and smiled into his cup.
"It's...well, it's a lot of work, but it's a joy. I don't know, just seeing my little Zamayla make progress gives me so much happiness! Every time she does something new, I feel like...I finally accomplished something in life, you know?"
"...Really?"
"...Yes..."
"Sounds really ANNOYNG to me. Like, you have to teach her EVERYthing?"
"Yes? Come on, Nesira, babies don't know anything when they're first born!" Layla said. "Geez, you know NOTHING about kids..."
"Shut up!" Nesira said huffily.
"Anyway, Nesira, how come your baby isn't born yet? Don't Gerudos have only 7 months of pregnancy?"
"Yeah, but I'm only HALF Gerudo, so, it doesn't apply. And it's not FAIR!" the young girl flopped back on the bed. Grasshopper leaned back and kissed her stomach.
"Come on, you'll get through it. There's not that much time left."
"Yeah well it feels like an eternity."
"It'll be alot better once you baby is born, I promise." Zara said.
"Yeah, life has gotten alot better since, what, 3 and a half years ago?" Link commented.
"Yeah, that fateful day..." Layla said.
"When I ripped Cameron in half..." Grasshopper said.
"Yes, good times, eh, friends?" Nathaniel asked.
"Definitely." Zara complied.
Layla looked up and around the room at everyone. They all looked so happy. Everyone was at peace, and life looked like it could go nowhere but up.
"You know, guys? I think I've learned that...even though life can look grim at times, as long as you have a strong will, you can accomplish anything."
"Agreed!" said the rest.
"Life's beautiful, isn't it?" Zara said.
The rest of the group nodded and murmured agreements.
"Not as beautiful as you, though." Nathaniel said, kissing her.
"You had to go and ruin my philosophical moment, didn't you?" Zara laughed.
"Oops, sorry." Nathaniel teased. "But yes, I agree."
The group settled down again and got ready for a lifetime full of happiness.
