The River Dragon: I'm so sorry for not updating in forever, but lucky me, I had the pleasure of having huge time consuming courses last semester. I've had hardly any time to do anything fun. Butluckily,school is done! Iactually finished writing this chapter about a week ago or so, but for some reason it wouldnt upload on document manager. Meh, oh yes, and I'm quickly running out of ideas for this story, so its either I stop at chapter ten or you guys give me ideas. Please no burning of Malon with flamethrowers or shooting, there can be quite a lot of verbal abuse –which I personally prefer- and some mild physical abuse. So the River Dragon would much appreciate it if she were to get some wonderous ideas! Enjoy Chapter ten, it gets fluffy!
Chapter 10
Just as Impa had said, Link was outside; it was almost instantly after she closed the door that he leapt from a nearby tree onto the windowsill.
In her mind, Zelda wondered if she should bring up the topic Malon had spoke about. She knew that she shouldn't but she was curious. And so, the words slipped out of her mouth.
"Do you like Malon?" She asked in a voice barely audible.
Link tilted his head to the side slightly in questioning. "Where did that come from?" he asked, sitting down on the sill.
Zelda shook her head, motioning that she'd rather not explain it all. 'If I explain I might end up saying too much.' She said to herself.
As the silence drifted through the room, Zelda felt tears form and her body start to quiver.
Link thought over the tone of her voice and the question she asked many times, trying to find any hidden secrets it held that – should they be revealed – could be disastrous. Finding none he let out a sigh but then held it as he saw her on the verge of crying. His breath was caught and he felt a pang at his heart.
In his attempt to try and prevent her from crying he ended up doing so in the process.
"No!" He practically screamed as his heart and mind raced. Zelda looked up with wide eyes, not expecting Link to reply so loudly, or that he even could.
He felt his face begin to burn, something he wasn't used to.
"I'm sorry; I didn't mean to say that so loud. I like Malon but only as a friend or maybe a younger sister. I don't understand how you could have thought that I had feelings for her when it's so obvious that someone else already has my heart. She has for quite some time, but I don't think she's noticed it." His immediate thoughts flew out of his mouth accidentally as he panicked, making it sound like he was talking more to himself then to her.
'What's wrong with me? I've never felt so, scared? I've been able to read girls' emotions for years but for some reason I can't think straight when I look at Zelda. I want to say a million things at once and my mouth responds in a yell or gibberish, or both!'
Impa stood outside the door to Zelda's room hiding a small smile behind her hand. The Gerudo Prince was having a harder time then expected. 'Poor boy, he's probably never actually been in love before and has no idea what to do.' She thought to herself.
Link held his head in his hands and groaned. 'She probably thinks I'm an idiot!' He yelled at himself.
He could hear snickering from where Zelda sat and he hung his head lower. 'Great, now she's laughing at me.' He said to himself.
But suddenly he heard the sound of a feet coming closer to him and looked up momentarily to see Zelda wrap her arms around his neck and hug him with a flush on her face. "I had a hunch." She mumbled.
He gasped but didn't return the hug which caused her to pull away and look at him questioningly.
She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart. 'Wait, what if he was thinking about someone else! Is that why he isn't-' She was cut off.
Link had leaned his head down slightly and pressed his lips to hers, he had seen the sudden panic in her eyes and for the first time since he came in that window, he knew how to answer her.
The River Dragon: Ahhh done, chapter 10 at least. How did you like it? And once again, please send in some ideas if you want anymore chapters after this. Summer break is almost here and I'll probably be spending some time on the computer!
