Just a quick note. I deleted the April Fools thing so I don't get mixed up. This is Chapter 10 (: Enjoy!
Last Time
I put him in the bed and covered him up with the blankets. He sighed and closed his eyes. He tried to fall asleep as I looked out the window. It was only 6 but the more sleep he gets the more time his body can heal. After about an hour of aimlessly staring out the window, I turned around. I looked over at the fast asleep Link and sighed. I brushed his still damp hair out of his eyes and placed a kiss on his cheek.
"Goodnight Link."
Link's POV
I felt the suns bright rays coming through the window and entering our room. I felt the warm rays as they flashed directly upon my closed eyes. I scrunched up my face in irritation and groaned. I don't want to wake up... I want to sleep... I shuffled in bed and let out another groan when my body ached from the previous beast encounter.
"Good morning beautiful," I heard a deep voice whisper near me, "Time to get up. It's noon. How can someone sleep so long?" My ear twitched down momentarily, and whined audibly. I reached behind me and grabbed the closest pillow to me. I picked it up with the little strength I had and threw it at the Dark figure next to me.
I heard the pillow hit something and a small thud sounded in the room from the connection.
I flipped over on my stomach and thrust my head into my last, not thrown pillow. Oh my... this pillow is really cold... I sighed and shifted to get comfortable. It was getting hard to breathe in this position so I turned my head back around. Just at that moment, I felt something hit me on my back. I yelped at the odd pain on my back and I shot up as fast as I can.
"LINK! Are you okay?! Are you hurt?! You're okay?! DARK! How could you?! He is an injured man!" I heard Navi screech. My head throbbed and I looked around to see an unclothed figure sitting up in the bed and Navi flying around him.
"He started it!" the man grumbled.
"I don't care! Link is ALWAYS cranky in the morning! It's normal behavior for him!"
"Yeah well-"
I blocked out the rest of the conversation and moved back down. I spotted the pillow he threw and a devious grin came up on my face. All I heard behind me was constant nagging from Navi and remarks from Dark. I crawled to the edge of the bed and bent down. I ran my fingers gently along the pillow's satin cover and sighed. Navi and Dark's endless chatter became slower and when I grabbed the pillow it became oddly silent. I took the pillow and crawled over to Dark and Navi. They were both eying me curiously and I threw the pillow at Navi who shrieked. The pillow landed on the floor with Navi under it. She moved around from underneath it and started to giggle.
I looked over at Dark and he raised an eyebrow. I haven't yet smiled which must have scared them even more. I growled and tackled Dark Link down to the ground. He yelped at the sudden attack, and then began laughing. We both rolled around on the ground trying to top each other. I grabbed onto his hair and pulled his face up to mine. Our faces were mere inches apart and we were both smiling. He closed his eyes and puckered his lips, making weird kissing noises. I gently brushed my lips against his and shoved him back.
Dark yelped when his back hit the ground and he stared up at me. I grinned and cradled his hips. I spread apart his arms and pinned them on both sides of his face. I leaned down and got a few inches away from his face.
"I win," I whispered to him. I retreated back, and looked at his expression. His facial features had tracks of fear but then he smiled. His pearly white fangs glistened as the aforementioned rays from the sun shone on them.
"Hmm... not for long." Next thing I knew, I felt a tug on my tights and I was flipped around. Dark's body was now placed In between my legs since mine were straddling him just a few seconds ago. I blushed as I registered the fact that neither one of us were wearing clothing except for our pants. Dark leaned closer to me, grinding his abdomen on my groin. I yelped as he leaned up to my face.
"Dark! Stop you're hurting him!" I heard Navi yell but we didn't listen. We were both into this moment. Dark's hands landed roughly on both sides of my waist as I raised an eye brow at him.
"Now I win," He chuckled and kissed my neck. I gasped and entangled my fingers in his hair. He chuckled and continued to suck and kiss the crook of my neck. I cried inwardly from this intimate touch and caressed his hair more. Then I tightened my grip and yanked him again, flipped the positions yet another time.
"Link! Stop you're hurting yourself!" I felt Navi's tiny hands grab onto my hair as she began pulling at it. I didn't have time to savor the victory of 'Gaining the upper hand' because Dark flipped me quickly over. I gasped and flipped him again. We began rolling around the room, grunting and laughing. I felt myself bump into many things.
First the Lamp.
"Link!"
Then the chair.
"DARK!"
Then the bed.
"Stop!"
Then the wall.
"LISTEN TO ME THIS INSTANT! WHAT IN THE NAME OF THE GODDES ARE YOU TO DOING! LISTEN TO ME FOR ONE GODDESS DAMN MINUTE!"
The sudden outburst brought both Dark and I out of our trance. We were both laying on the ground staring shockingly at Navi. I have never heard her swear and this was a first.
"LINK! You get BACK to the bed NOW and rest! Dark! Stop bothering him and hurting him!"
Without a second thought Dark Link stood up and picked me up. I squealed at the sudden motion and tried pushing him away. He grinned and threw me on the bed. I felt an ounce of pain as I hit the soft mattress and groaned.
"DARK! What did I just say?!"
"Sorry Mother," Dark snorted. He walked around the bed to my sprawled out body. I sighed and ran my fingers up and down my unclothed chest. It tickled... I was feeling weird. Shivers ran through my body and my hand flew away from my chest. I felt Dark's eyes on me, sighed, and turned to face Navi who has calmed down.
"Link... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell but Sheik said that you should stay in bed for the night and most of the day... and.."
"It's fine. I know how you feel, and I should have listened. I'll rest now."
"Okay. Good... now if only Dark Link could act as mature as you are now Link..."
"I can be mature." Dark scoffed. He walked around the bed and sat down next to me.
"I could use some help re bandaging. These old ones are ripped up and kind of bloody." I replied tugging gently on the old binds that clung to my shoulder and leg.
"I got it." I heard Dark reply. He stood up and walked out of the room and into the bathroom were he came out with gauze. I smiled warmly as he knelt next to me and started untying the first knot on my leg. I winced at the slight pain but let him continue as he unwrapped my foot.
"Here, Link. Sheik left you some bottles yesterday. He said to drink the red one now and then drink the white one in the afternoon."
"White one?" I have never heard of a white potion before...
"Yeah I was confused too but Sheik said it's powered up milk. The milk is powered up ,hence the name, and will heal your bones and any cracks in your skull while the red potion will heal external injuries."
My mouth gaped open again as I listened to Navi's 'Smart Talk'. I heard Dark snort and mutter something under his breathe. I turned to him and saw he finished my foot and stood up. I moved on the bed to give him room to sit on my right but he surprised me completely and sat behind me.
Dark Link sat cross legged and waved his hands. I cocked my head to the side and scrunched my eyebrows. He moved his hands again but I couldn't comprehend what he wanted me to do. So I just, scooted closer. Dark rolled his eyes and reached out to me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me onto his lap. I blushed at first but sighed for I know he is just trying to help me. Shivers went up my body as his cold fingers brushed my hair to one side of my head.
This feels nice...Him playing with my hair... I sighed and closed my eyes.
"Lift your arm." I obliged and steadily lifted my right, injured arm. He started to unwrap that one and worked through the same process. His fingers occasionally grazed my skin like cold water droplets. He threw the bloody gauze on the floor and I made a weird face at the dirty environment. I just noticed how horrible it looks. Our clothes, items, and other belongings were scattered around the room.
"I'll clean it up!" Navi called, reading my thoughts. She lifted the bloody gauze with her tiny hands and began to fly to the bathroom. Dark finished tying the fresh gauze and let out a sigh.
"You're all done."
"Thanks, Dark. I app-"
I felt warm lips on my neck and shivered as they traveled down lower to my shoulder.
"Dark... what are you doing."
Dark let out a small, innocent chuckle and looked at me from behind.
"Hasn't your mother kissed your wounds to make them feel better?" He laughed and got up from the bed. He walked over to the stand and picked up the red potion.
"Well, I was kind of raised by a tree." I laughed awkwardly. It sounded weird when you said it that way and that really made me laugh. I became a giggling fit as Dark walked back over to me with the red potion in his hand. I couldn't stop and tried covering my mouth. Dark sat next to me and raised one eyebrow.
Dark Link's POV
I watched curiously as Link giggled on our bed. I grabbed the potion and started back towards him watching him try and contain the giggles. I sat down next to him and raised one eyebrow. He looked at me, blushed an adorable shade of pink and threw his head back against the pillow.
"Tree's don't kiss!" Link said aloud and now he was laughing hard, and small tears ran from his eyes. I imagined a giant tree leaning down and kissing Link's bloody knee and it was kind of funny. I chuckled and observed his body as Link calmed down. His back was arched and his head thrown back. I started to chuckle and gently brushed the hair out of his eyes. Link got back up and looked at me.
"Sorry about that it just sounded weird."
"You're apologizing for laughing? You are one weird guy." I laughed and put the bottle in Link's hand and he looked down at it, "Chug." He looked uncertainly at me but drank the entire bottle in 5 gulps. He let out gasp as he finished the bottle and lied back down. I took the bottle and placed it on the floor. Navi came out of the bathroom and landed on Link's hat off into the distance. I watched as her little tired wings flew her over and she collapsed.
"Dark. What exactly happened after I blacked out?" Link asked me bringing me out of my trance.
"Oh well, Sheik and I worked together and helped stop bleeding and stuff..." I replied awkwardly. I don't want to tell him we were fighting. Sheik's Links friend and if Link likes him I should too.
"You mean Sheik?"
"What?"
"Didn't just Sheik help me?"
"Why is it so hard to believe I helped you?"
"You are not very good in situations like that."
I raised an eyebrow and chuckled but was hurt on the inside. So... I'm useless?
"Situations like what?"
"Well, at the Water Temple you were afraid to fight Morpha; and when I was taken by that shadow beast you were freaking out." He laughed and looked at me.
"I have never seen a monster before in my life don't blame me."
"What about Ganondorf?"
"Well, to me he seemed normal. You know? Being the 1st thing I have ever seen."
"Why weren't you afraid to fight me?" Link asked. I didn't actually think about it until now. I stayed silent for a few minutes under Link's intense gaze.
"Well, I was so surprised that you looked a little like me. I mean, Ganondorf would always scare me that Link is some big monster but actually he is a small man."
"I am NOT small."
"Well, smaller than me."
"By like an inch!"
"More like 4."
I heard Link growl and lay back down on the bed. He sighed and closed his eyes.
"being short isn't a bad thing."
"It's a sign of weakness."
"Oh so I'm stronger?" I grinned.
"Surprisingly no since you can't even fight a gel like tentacle."
"Hmm... maybe you should teach me."
"Teach you what?" Link sat up in his bed.
"How to fight, how to be prepared for situations like yesterday. You know, everything I'm apparently bad at."
"Well I see no harm..." Link looked down uncertainly.
"and..."
"It... WILL help later in combat." Link said again. He seemed to be ACTUALLY making a decision. Why wouldn't you want to train me?
"So..." I replied. I fluttered my eye lashes and pulled a puppy face. He looked at me and bit his lip. He took in a large breath of air then exhaled it out slowly.
"Fine. We will practice sometime... when I get better of course."
"Great It's a date."
"A.. D-Date?!"
"Yeah. Two people hanging out alone, and training."
"Uh... call it what ever you want but I'll call it training." Link laughed he sighed and closed his eyes. He smiled warmly and I cocked my head looking at his cute expression.
"Tired?"
"Kind of. This potion is kicking in."
"Good. Take a small nap and I'll wake you up in an hour or so."
"Are you sure?" Link asked with his eyes half opened.
"Yeah, you need rest and I need a shower." I laughed, smelled my arm and made a disgusted face. Link giggled again at that and flipped positions on his side. He closed his eyes and tried falling asleep. I smiled and ruffled up his hair. I got up and walked towards the bathroom, shutting the door on the sleeping Hylian.
I looked into the mirror and cringed at the sight. My face was dirty and was covered in mud. My body wasn't any cleaner. I had a few blood stains from helping Link earlier and small cut's from our previous 'battle'.
I stripped from my clothing and stepped into the washtub.
-Time Skip-
I walked out of the bathroom with a towel around my head and another around my waist. My body still dripped and left wet footprints on the carpet. I walked over to my pouch and pulled out tights and a black tunic that I got earlier. I slipped the towel off not caring that Link was in the room. He was asleep anyway.
I put on my tights and boots and walked over to the sleeping Link. I sighed and slowly started to shake his shoulders. He moaned slightly and opened his eyes.
"Slept well?"
"Kind of. Showered well?"
"Would have been better with you." I purred and buried my nose into his neck. He blushed sweetly and chuckled.
"You have a weird sense of humor."
"I wasn't being funny..."
"You were being serious...?" Link asked awkwardly and I knew I was caught. I didn't mean for that to slip out but it just did.
"Link. You and Dark should go shopping for objects for your next quest. The red potion seems to have worked and your bleeding stopped. I still suggest you wear the bandages though."
I sighed and smiled at the interruption. Luckily Navi got me out of replying to Link. I looked over at him who nodded and walked towards his pouch on the floor. Next to it were his brown boots. He slipped them on and I followed after him slipping on my tunic. He grabbed his pouch and checked inside for ruppees.
"Ready to go?"
"Yup." I laughed and we both headed out the door.
- Small Time Skip-
Link and I walked for about 2 hours in the city. Many people were still terrified from the previous encounter and were pretty shaken up. Link took the liberty and helped them morally as well as fixed any broken things they had. I have never seen him so happy. How can someone give so much, never get anything in return, and be happy?
Why don't the people here realize that just because he is a hero doesn't mean he doesn't have needs. It doesn't mean he doesn't want help, or happiness. It makes me sick to see him smile. I mean.. I love his smile but not the fact that he only cares for their happiness.
"Uh Link..." I whispered to Link's ear. Link was handing ruppee's to a lady and her daughter. They thanked him, kissed his cheek and walked away. He sighed and looked over at me.
"Sorry about that, I just can't not help someone in need."
"I noticed..."
"Let's go buy some stuff for the quest now." He exhaled deeply and started again towards the shops.
"Didn't you give away all you're ruppees?" I whispered more to myself then to Link. I followed after him and we both walked side by side to the shops.
Link walked in and greeted the brown haired girl again. She smiled and then frowned.
"Link... What happened to your shoulder?" She asked sweetly, gently touching his shoulder.
"Just... got into an accident. I'm alright though." He smiled and walked away from her. He began looking at arrows and bows in the corner of the shop. I walked up to the girl and leaned against the table behind us.
"What really happened?"
"Were you hear when the monster attacked the village?"
"Oh... I see. He always gets hurt though. Everyone is used to it but I'm not. It hurts me to see him injured." She sighed and touched her one shoulder most likely feeling sorry for him. I didn't know anyone else felt that way but me.
"Yeah, he really cares about others." I said out loud as we both watched Link also pick out some bombs.
"A little too much. He's very attentive." She confessed, "Oh well, I can't stop him. Once his mind is set to something, he won't back down." She smiled and walked towards the counter. Link walked up to her and set down the bombs, arrows and other things. I walked up to them and put my hand on his waist.
The brunette smiled, and wrote something down on a little pad. The notebook was the same shade of blue as her eyes and had golden floral prints. I looked at what she was writing to find numbers. She must be calculating the price
"20 please."
"20? I usually pay 60?"
"We have a special deal going on."
"What kind?" Link asked sceptically.
"Due to the damage in the city, I lowered the prices so people can afford items." She smiled weakly and winked at me. I smiled inwardly at her help. I'm happy she's helping me but I kind of feel angry. I want to help Link... I don't need her help.
"Oh! That's great, Nisona! (sorta sounds like Epona) I bet the villagers love that!" He laughed and began to walk away. I leaned over the counter and thanked her. She smiled and wished me luck.
"Make sure he takes his medicine to heal."
"How did you know he had medicine?"
"Most people who are injured have medicine silly." she giggled and pushed my shoulder.
"Thanks Nisona."
"No problem Dark."
"Dark! Come One!" Link called after me. I smiled and walked back over to Link. He looked over at Nisona and then walked out the door with me right next to him. We walked outside and started back towards the inn. He opened his pouch and somehow stuffed everything he just bought in there.
The sun was setting and Link and I were walking in the garden of the inn. The sky was an odd shade yellow, orange, red, blue, purple and even pink. The clouds formed rays as the sun shined through small holes in the clouds. The Garden was beautiful and consisted of many different flowers. There were roses and violets and orchids and more! The roses were a vibrant red and the Violets a mysterious blue. I smiled at the beautiful sight and looked over at Link. He also seemed awestruck as he stared down at the flowers. As I walked next to him, he suddenly fell on the soft grass.
"Link!" I knelt down next to him grabbing his uninjured shoulder, "You okay?"
"My ankle hurts..." Link chuckled. Why does he laugh at the most stupid moments? He's hurt goddess damn it!
"Oh shit! We forgot the medicine." I reached into Link's pouch and pulled out the bottle of powered up milk. I popped open the cork, and put it in front of Link's face. Link looked at it and his face scrunched up.
"Ew, no." He pushed my hand away.
"Link, you collapsed because you didn't drink this. It will heal your bones and such. Now come on, drink."
"No it tastes gross, I don't want it."
"I don't care!" I grabbed Link's chin and forced his mouth open; I poured the milk into his mouth and forced him to swallow. He coughed and choked on it as he struggled against me. He pushed and kicked my hand. I released him and he spit out all of the milk. I was so angry. Why won't he take his damn milk! IT WON'T KILL YOU!
"Fuck! Li-!" I froze and I felt a deep blush come upon my cheeks. My eyes widened and my mouth dropped. Link was sitting there with his eyes shut tight, his fingers dug into the grass and his entire face covered in the white liquid.
The Milk dripped from his lip and covered his lower face. One hand was still dug into the grass and another one came up to his face and wiped the white liquid off of his face. His eyes were half open and half closed as he stared down. He looked like he had... cough cum cough all over his face. What made it worse for me was that he sparkled from the powered up milk. He looked so... cute this way. He blushed when he noticed my intense stare.
"Look what you did!" He yelled at me. He stood up and began walking towards the inn at a fast pace. I laughed and ran after him. I grabbed onto his waist and lifted him up. I twirled him around in a circle and then put him back down. He struggled against me and I let go when we reached the inn doors.
"Goddess, you act like a PMSing girl." I snorted. Link marched up the stairs, never looking back at me. I laughed again as he opened the door to our room and slammed it in my face. I opened it , happy he didn't lock it, and found him lying on the bed.
"Link, I'm sorry but you had to take that milk. You were injured and needed the help."
"But I didn't want help," He pouted.
"Well, we don't want a lot of things we need." I replied and sat down on the bed next to him,"You didn't want to go on this quest did you? But you need to. The world is in your hands. One mistake and we are all doomed to forever slavery. You probably didn't want to leave the forest did you? Well you needed to help. Like I said, we don't want a lot of things, if it's for something small like...drinking medicine or something big like saving the world. I didn't want to fight you Link. But I needed to. Ganondorf would have killed me if I didn't.
"But I also didn't want to be your friend. Don't get me wrong you're great... more then great in my eyes but I just wanted to kill you and get it over with... get this life mission over with. But I felt the need to be with you. I felt like we were destined to meet and work together, not fight. So Link... I... just do what's best for you. Even if you may not want to. It will help you and the people around you." I sighed and looked over at Link. I was shocked to see that he was asleep.
"Wow, thanks for your full attention." I laughed and lied down next to him. I closed me eyes and fell asleep.
Hey so, I'm back. So the April Fool's joke was half true. My brother hacked my account and deleted my stuff so I had to start all this over... Due to the fact that I missed last week, I made this one extra long. Around 4,417 words! Anyway, I'm sorry that took long but the files were gone and I was just so busy this week with my little cousins coming over EVERYDAY at 5 and staying until like 9:30... I have also been at cheer practice everyday intil 4:30 so that bothered everything. Then I have school... so it's pretty busy over here. Anyway, sorry for the long wait and I hope you stay for future chapters and forgive me for the long wait.
