The new kid
Chapter 31: Forgotten memories.
´´I seriously have to stop doing that all the time, the others must think I am some odd fellow that can't control himself on a dance floor. Dominic thought to himself. Then Dominic saw that someone coming towards him.
"Hey, are you ok?" Zelda then asked, but Dominic didn't answer her.
"Can't we go outside and talk." Dominic then said.
´´It must be some serious stuff he want to talk about since he want to go outside to talk Zelda thought to herself.
"Fine with me." Zelda said and then they walked outside.
"So what do you wanna talk about." Zelda then asked to break the silence that came after they want outside.
"Zelda…do you think I was odd, inside…on the dance floor?" Dominic then said while looking over the sea.
"No…How do you do it? I mean moving so fluently?" Zelda then asked, and then Dominic looked down.
"My…My Mother…taught me it…" Dominic choked and could feel some tears running down his cheeks, but he didn't do anything to stop them.
"Sorry… I asked…" Zelda said, but looked at Dominic as he began to cry.
"Shh. Come here." Zelda said and held Dominic close to her.
"Everyone have to let go of their sadness, even you." Zelda then said and stroked his back soothingly.
Meanwhile were Samus, Fox, Falco, Roy and Marth the only ones who noticed that Zelda and Dominic were gone, but then Samus saw their reflection in the glass. Then she was about to open the door, when Zelda noticed it and shook her head while mouthing something. Then she removed her hand from the door. Then Roy was about to open the door, when Samus stopped him.
"Let them be alone a little while yet." Samus said and blocked the door.
"Why?" Roy then asked, and then Samus had a sad face on.
"Because of his mother." Samus said sadly and then they went silent, and then Fox tried to get past Samus but she stopped him.
"I know you want to comfort him, but let Zelda do it this time. She knows what she is doing." Samus said to Fox.
"How?" Fox then asked, and then Samus looked at him.
"Because Zelda have told me that she was related to his mother, they were cousins. But I don't think Dominic knows it." Samus then said.
Meanwhile was Dominic still crying but it was slowly stopping, and when Dominic stopped crying Zelda brushed some hair out of his eyes, while humming a melody.
"How do you know that melody, that my mother used to sing for me?" Dominic then asked.
"You might get angry at me for not telling you sooner, but we are blood-related, I am…was your mother's cousin." Zelda said, then Dominic looked at her shocked but he calmed down again, and closed his eyes and then thought back fifteen or seventeen years back.

"Mother, who is this?" a young girl asked her mother while her brother looked at a five-year-older girl.
"Eva, that is my cousin, your aunt, Zelda, she is from Hyrule, where she is a princess." Eva's mother said to Eva.
"You are pretty." The small boy said, blushing to over both ears, while he was shuffling his feet.
"Dominic have a girlfriend, Dominic have a girlfriend." Eva sang.
"Do not." Dominic then said to his sister while blushing.
"Do too." Eva said and laughed at him.
"Eva, be nice to your brother, just because you have gotten your magic now and he haven't." Their mother said.
"Yes, mother." Eva said and then when their mother looked away, Dominic blew a silent raspberry at his sister, who stuck her tongue out.
"Eva, what did I just say to you? Go up in your room and think about what you did." Her mother said and scolded Eva a little.
"Mrs. Alva, can I go out in the garden?" Zelda then asked.
"Just call me Alva, Zelda-dearest." Alva said and then Dominic took summoned enough courage to him.
"Can I go with you?" Dominic then shyly asked Zelda who smiled.
"Of course, come with me then." Zelda then said while humming a melody.
"Where have you learned that song? Because that is the one my mother is sing to me when I'm going to sleep." Dominic said as they walked down to the garden.
"When I was younger your mother sang this to me when I couldn't sleep when I was on vacation here. So it must have been stuck inside my head," Zelda said and then Dominic gave her a stage look.
"If it was stuck, then why didn't you just got someone to remove it with a spell?" Dominic asked confused. However, Zelda just smiled at him.
"You'll understand it, when you are older." Zelda said and they reached the garden.
"The flowers are really beautiful this year." Zelda then said, but Dominic wasn't listing to her.
"They are talking." Dominic said and then Zelda looked at him, but she couldn't see anyone else in the garden.
"Who are talking? There aren't anyone else but us here." Zelda said, while looking at Dominic.
"Yes there are, can't you hear them?" Dominic then asked Zelda but she shook her head.
"Funny, because everytime I am around some plants it sounds like there are someone talking to me." Dominic said, but then he knelt down to an almost withered flower.
"Poor little flower." Dominic said as he caressed it and then it looked like his right hand glowed green, and then the flower looked like the other flowers.
"Dominic…your hand…" Zelda said, then Dominic looked at his hand and gave a yelp of surprise.
"What is that." Dominic said and then he shook his hand, but the green light didn't go away.
"Please go away, green light, go away." Dominic began to sniff, but then Zelda held him close and started singing the lullaby that his mother used to sing for him. Then he began to calm down, and then his mother came walking.
"What happened?" Alva then asked, Dominic looked up at her, and then he showed her his right hand, where the green light was still surrounding it.
"It looks like you have found your magic, but have you experienced anything else.
"They are talking about us." Dominic then said and then his mother looked confused as Zelda had.
"Who are talking about us?" Alva asked.
"The flowers, the grass, the trees." Dominic said, and then the green light disappeared from his hand.
"We have to talk to your father when he gets home again." Alva then said, and Dominic nodded.

"Mother…I miss you." Dominic said to himself and then he opened his eyes.
"I can't believe that I forgot about you, Zelda, and that you was my aunt. No wonder you looked so familiar," Dominic said and then Zelda smiled.
"Are you feeling better?" Zelda then asked and he nodded.
"I'm okay again, and I realized that I my memories about my mother shouldn't be something sad, but be happy about that I have them." Dominic said as he dried his eyes.
"But let me guess, you didn't know what sexual orientation you had, when you was younger." Zelda then asked and Dominic blushed but shook his head.
"No, I think I was nine or ten when I found out that I liked boys better then girls. And Eva was mean as a kid, but then again, she is still mean." Dominic then said.
"Yeah, I remember when you said I was pretty." Zelda said and then Dominic was embarrassed.
"Don't tell the others about that. They will die from laughter. " Dominic said as he stood up, then Zelda giggled.
"Don't worry, I won't tell your Foxy about that." Zelda then giggled and Dominic looked shocked.
"Not funny, but shouldn't we get back inside again. I miss my Foxy, and the dancing." Dominic said and then Zelda got up to and they went inside.
"Are you alright?" Samus then asked and then Dominic smiled.
"Yes, I am. Zelda helped me out, though." Dominic said. Then he took Fox's hand and dragged him out on the floor and they started dancing.
"Yep, he is alright." Marth said and then Roy dragged Marth out and then they too began to dance.
"Come on, Zelda and Falco. It's party time." Samus said and dragged them out on the floor and then soon after was almost everyone out on the floor.
