Hero of Mine
Chapter Six: The Ice Cavern
"Iron boots…" Link said to himself, holding up his newest treasure. "These should be good for under-water. I just hope they fit in my pouch…" He placed them over the opening of his pouch and they immediately shrank to the size of a walnut. "Huh…" Link said, having half-expected to have to carry them under his arm where ever he went.
"Hey!" piped Navi. "Where do we go now?"
Link looked over at the annoying blue pixie. "I dunno, you're the fairy, you tell me."
Some one behind him laughed. Link swung around, his hand on the hilt of the Master Sword.
"Sheik! How the hell do you just pop up out of no where?"
Sheik slowly walked up to him. "It's a gift…" He stopped not even a foot away from Link. "You're a lot cleverer than I thought."
Link gulped. "Well…uh…yeah. I'm not that clever. I mean I…" he trailed off as he watched Sheik pull his mask down. "What're you doing?" he asked shakily.
Sheik wrapped his arms around Link's neck. "Just…shuttup for a sec…" He pressed his lips to Link's in a fiery kiss. Navi squeaked and zipped behind the treasure chest. Link went rigid with shock. All he could think about was Sheik and how warm his body felt in the icy room. He had barely gathered his wits when Sheik pulled away, his arms still wrapped tightly around his neck. He smiled wickedly.
"How good are you with your sword?" he asked quietly.
Link just stared and answered automatically. "Good. It's pretty easy once you get used to the swings."
Sheik smiled again and kissed Link's neck. Link shivered, his legs nearly giving way.
"I wasn't talking about the one on your back…" Sheik purred. Link's eyes nearly popped out of his head. His breath caught in his throat and he pushed Sheik away. The smaller boy raised his eye brows.
"What's wrong? You didn't seem to have a problem with this at the Fire Temple." He smirked. "Or was it because you were in charge?" Link gulped, his breathing returned to normal. Sheik crossed his arms. "I get it. You're afraid of being overpowered. You don't want to be submissive."
Link cleared his throat. "Something like that…"
"Heh…well you should get used to it…hero…." Sheik pulled is mask back over his nose and pulled his golden harp off his back. "Well, I suppose I should do…the other thing I came here to do…" His voice was amused.
Link took a shaky step forward and pulled out his ocarina. Sheik's unusual behavior hadn't scared him as much as it had only surprised him. He had always thought of Sheik as a quiet, reserved, maybe even shy boy. What Link had done at the Fire Temple had just been for fun; he'd been fighting for months and was tired of every thing and every one being so serious. And Sheik was just so beautiful; even if he hadn't seen he face yet at the time. That kiss had been inevitable. And from the way Sheik had acted, Link had been under the impression that he didn't like him. Shoving him away so hastily on the bridge (he didn't take into account that they had been inside an active volcano about to erupt), refusing aid from him when he was badly wounded, and always being so cocky with him. But today's encounter with him proved to be quite the contrary. Had he just kissed him out of lust? Or did Sheik really like him? Link couldn't be sure, but from the way his voice was so husked when he spoke, he had a depressing feeling that Sheik was just being lustful.
"This song will
teleport you to the island at Lake Hylia," Sheik said softly, his
reserved wall back up around him. "The Serenade of Water." He
plucked the strings of his golden harp in glorious, heavenly tunes
like no other Link had heard. It was by far his most favorite song
Sheik had taught him yet. It was so mystical and soothing; it almost
brought tears to Link's eyes. Sheik repeated the song once for
Link, then motioned for him to play along. Link placed the Ocarina of
Time to his lips and, once again, played it perfectly the first time.
It had to have been the ocarina itself; it was, after all, a magical
instrument.
Sheik placed his harp on his back and stepped up to
him again. Link froze, but kept his wits.
"I'm sorry if I frightened you…I just couldn't help it. I really like you…."
Link sighed. He'd been holding in his breath without realizing it. He relaxed and stepped forward a bit. "It's alright. You just caught me off guard, that's all. You're the last person I would have ever expected to do that." He smiled and reached out to brush Sheik's blonde hair away from his scarlet eye. "You're so beautiful. I hate the way you cover yourself so much. You should—" he was silenced by another kiss from Sheik. This time, Link wrapped his arms around the smaller man's waist and pulled him up closer, kissing back. Sheik wrapped his arms around Link's neck again, his mind lost in the intimate moment.
Sheik finally pulled away from him and pulled his mask back up. "You should go." He nodded towards a square hole in the ground behind the chest. "And I'm still going to get back at you for that little stunt you pulled at the Fire Temple…"
Link smirked and glanced over his shoulder, examining his exit. "Oh really? Well I'm terrified…I'm just shaking in my boot—" he looked back over to where Sheik had been standing, but he was gone.
