Link's POV
I run out of the large mirrored room and down the hall ignoring all the questioning glances I'm receiving from the guards. I have to prepare for my journey.. I don't know how far Dark hes gotten or if he's gotten into trouble. I don't know what lies ahead of me. I open the door to my temporary room and start to gather my equipment. Grabbing my sword, I strap it onto my back along with my shield. Sighing, I look around for my pouch and stuff if with arrows, bombs, potions and a few fairies. I continue to look around and see my tree. It looks... faded? Taking a couple steps towards it, I lean down and touch the once soft bark to be met with a rough texture... My eyes leave the rough bark and spot a silver petal that has fallen to the base of the plant. I cock my head to the side and reach over picking it up
"What... why'd it..," my eyes widen as I see the tree disappear, "Ah! No come back!" The tree slowly fades into nothing as I claw at the empty space. I bite back a few tears as I stare at the emptiness... so empty...like my heart... I feel.. terrible... Dark would be here.. and he'd hug me right now.. Clenching my fists I stand up abruptly and wipe away the stray tears that have fallen from my eyes. Letting out a loud sigh I start to turn around before noticing the stray silver petal. My stance looses as I bend to pick it up, looking at it sadly..
"I will find you Dark.. and when I do I'm never loosing you again..." A few more tears fall from my eyes as I stuff the petal into my pocket. I make my way to the door and run down the hallway to the castle entrance. As I run I shake my head clearing it of sadness. Now Link... now isn't the time to cry. Work through this. You will find Dark and everything will be back to normal. He'll be happy and I'll be happy. Together. I slam open the castle doors again ignoring the ignorant looks of the guards as I dash out of the castle, through the garden and into the dark forest. This is where he asked to. I saw him run this way.. will he be here? I can only hope so.
My pace slows down as I start to walk quickly. I don't want to miss him by running past... a stupid mistake that would be. I made too many already... I think letting out a exasperated sigh. I look around the surroundings. This looks nothing like the Kokiri forest. It's a lot darker and, though a child of the forest, I'm actually quite frightened. But I won't let mere fear keep me from saving Dark. I've gone to terrible things to save Zelda and I don't think I can go through worse. Dark is just in this forest.. probably hiding somewhere. I look up and examine the tree's... but where?
The forest gets darker and I hear shuffling. My heart picks up.
"D-Dark? That you?" I look around my area and growl. Great.. the forest is going to play games with me... I start to walk again and sneak glances around... I know I heard something... Maybe I just imagined it.. I'm not very strong emotionally and mentally at the moment...
A stick cracks.
I spin around on my heels and draw my sword. Nothing... I'm getting paranoid.
Come on Link... Just find Dark..I keep my hand locked onto my sword as I continue my walk through the woods. My heart hurts...Is Dark safe? Is he ok? Is he injured?
…
Ive never worried about Zelda this way... This isn't love though. It's just.. a strong bond between a friend... I'm not gay.. no way.. Not that theres anything wrong with liking the same sex... but I love Zelda..
Zelda..
She looked so beautiful. Her beautiful reflection in the mirrors around us. The way her blue eyes shone from the white pearls around us. Her beautiful skin glittering and her hair sparkling from the suns rays... She is beautiful. Her heart is pure... her soul is light. She's everything anyone can dream of. I smile to myself just thinking of her... The way she held me tightly earlier and I felt her warm body on mine..
-prick-

Ow...
Zel...
-sting-
Nnh... I fall to my knee's and clutch my chest.
"Hey are you ok?" A dark voices says concerned.
A dark voice... dark...
I look up and gasp..
"Dark!" I jump and hug Dark wrapping my arms around his waist, "Dark you're safe!"
"...Uhh... Yeah.. I'm safe...I mean.. as safe as I can get in this dark forest" Dark chuckles as he tries to unwrap me from him, "Uh.. you can.. let go now sir.. heh.." I freeze and pull away standing up.
"...Dark?"
"Hey just because I look dark doesn't mean its my name" he laughs lightly.
"You're not.. whats your name?" I ask confused. This is Dark! No doubt!
"I... I don't know.. Hey maybe it is Dark!" Laughs, "You should be going back to the village now. Its dangerous out here.. I'll get going now. The village is the other way..."
-prick-
"Dark no! Please" I start to cry, "You can't! Stop playing with me!"
"...I'm sorry?"
"Dark.."
"CAN YOU STOP CALLING ME THAT! IT'S ANNOYING!"
-cut-
"It's me Link! I.. We.. We are friends and and we spent a lot of time together and and-"
"Look sir.. I never... Ive never met you before in my life"

Dark's POV
"I don't... know who you are," I chuckle and scratch the back of my head, "I'm sorry!" I close my eyes and smile. This is awkward. What do I do in this situation.. I look the guy up and down and slightly blush. He's... kinda cute... crying but still cute...
"No no no no this can't be happening..." the kid cried. I bite my lip and slowly walked over placing a hand on his shoulder. Looking up at me with hopeful eyes I sighed and brought him into a hug.
"Look listen, I'll take you home safely. You need to calm down. I'm not... Dark. I could help you find him tho-"
"It's you...I know it's you...please..." he pleaded. I sighed again and held him tighter. He wrapped his arms around me and cried in my shoulder. I felt his wet tears soak through my black clothing... that are similar to his.
Wait... I kind of look like him... What's going on? Do I know this guy? He says I do and maybe I do... I don't remember anything it's possible. He's warm. He feels nice. Feeling his heart beat against my chest feels... right... It hurts me to hurt him but I don't think I'm Dark...But I just don't know. I don't know anything. I don't like knowing nothing... I feel useless and vulnerable.
"Come to the village with me... talk to someone for me...let me prove to you that you are Dark"
"Look... Link? Was it? I'm not this Dark Link guy"
"Then who are you?" he says pulling away from my hug looking up at me. His eyes were watery and were as blue as the sky on a beautiful day. He had dark eye lashes that were coated with tear drops.
"I'm.. well... I don't remember who... I am," I say puzzled. Am I this Dark Link? I feel kind of bad for him... it looks like he really cares for this guy... I don't think he's going to leave me alone either so... I guess I'll go... If I am this Dark Link guy then that would be really weird. The blonde stays silent and just looks up at my face. He's not as tall as me but not that short. His eyes water even more and I feel my stomach churn. His face.. his expression.. it's hurting me now. I sigh and hug him closer to myself. Why am I so weak to emotions...
"You know what, I'll go with you okay? I mean you never know..." I say slowly, still not sure. The blonde smiles lightly and hugs me back. His arms wrap around my waist and I feel him clench the back of my tunic. I barely hear him through his muffled, soft cries as he whispers a thank you. I feel my heart speed up. Who is this guy? Link? Was it? He moves away from my hug and wipes at his eyes, blinking away a few tears.
"I don't usually cry," He says through slight tearful chuckles, "P-please follow me." He reaches over to grab my hand and hesitates looking at my confused face again. He looks down in shame as his arm retracts back and he begins walking in the direction I saw him come from. His pace is quick and stiff as he steps over rocks and twigs hoping not to fall. I glide over them smoothly and look at him from afar. My eyes trace up his body starting with his thin legs. His brown boots were slightly coated with mud and reached his knees where white tights wrapped around his thighs. Tights... what kind of guy wears tights...I laugh slightly to myself earning a curious glance back from the blonde. I wave wearily as a small apology and he keeps on walking. My eyes move back to my inspection and I look up his slightly torn and dirty tights to his tunic which covers his ass. I wouldn't mind seeing that in tights... I bite my lip and continue up. The belt wraps around his hip, giving him a womanly figure as his tunic curves in on his waist which is actually somewhat small... His green hat sways on his back and is also slightly ripped. What does this guy do to be so... torn up? I watch as his hat sways with his body and my eyes move back to his waist and I giggle. Link turns around at this pouts.
"W-whats so funny?" He says in a childish tone. His arms come up and he places both hands on his hips. He looks like more of a girl now! I cover my mouth and smile widely trying not to laugh. I bite my lip again as curiosity kicks in and I start to walk towards him. His childish yet fierce gaze softens and he takes a step back. I keep on walking and press him against a tree. I see his face instantaneously redden as he looks down from my gaze.
"You just... are you sure you're not a girl?" I laugh slightly leaning to his face as my fingers tilt his chin back to me. I take this time to admire his face. His skin looked smooth yet has traces of scars and cuts. Dirt slightly litters his perfect complexion and I take my finger away from his chin and wipe it off his cheek.
"I'm! Me?! I..." he stutters and blushes even more as he looks up at me. He looks scared? No.. not scared... it looks like he's been through this? He's thinking of something.. but what? I look at him curiously and trace my eyes back over his facial features. His eyes had a weird gaze in them. They were as blue as the sky and I'm surprised eyes can look this blue even in this dark light. They shine lightly from the tears he previously shed and his pupils grew large as I pressed myself to him and lean my face closer. My lips trace his cheek down to his neck and I feel him shiver underneath me as I smirk. Pressing my lips to his neck I leave a small kiss.
"nnh.. D-Dark.." He says quietly. He's getting all hot, just from a small kiss? How cute... I wonder how he'd react to more. I kiss down his neck, leaving a tiny trail of kisses. A few times I suck on the skin getting a pleasant reaction from the adorable blonde. I keep kissing and reach his collarbone, where I stare at the soft part of skin. I move my hand to his side and tug up his shirt, letting my hand graze the soft skin on his waist. I run my thumb over his hip bone and start to suck on his collarbone. He lets out a small moan and I start to nibble on his neck. I feel a hand tangle it's way into my hair and I decide to kiss lower as I kiss as much skin as I can with his tunic still on. I feel him tug and I stop as I'm pulled away from the delicious skin. My hand still stays on his exposed skin as I look curiously.
The blonde looks down in shame, his face a new shade of red. His grip on my hair tightens causing me to lightly wince, but his hold loosens and he looks to the side.
"Has... 'Dark' Done this to you?" I ask curiously. I wouldn't see why not. This guy seems incredible.
"W-what?!" His grip loosens and he stares incredulously at me.
"Has 'Dark Link' touched you like this before?"
He looks away from me again and pushes against my hand. He was getting all flustered and I found it actually... really cute. He shook his head denying it and I raised an eyebrow at him. I mouth the words 'Really?' and he shifts as my hand moves around his exposed hip to his back.
"W-well... he's... touched me before.. But but It was just playful! an-"
"So wait.. Dark Link was your.. boyfriend?" Makes sense I mean... he really want him back and even cried in front of a stranger. He looks all tattered and torn and who knows what he went through to find his love. He even let me touch him and he didn't really... disagree... so..
"No! No no no no!" he cries out moving from my grip and I pout missing the touch of his smooth skin, "We're not! He's not my boyfriend! I-I love... Zelda..He's just a good friend and I care about him and-"
I wince and my heart lets out a small shock of pain. Zelda? Who's she? I don't like her.. I can tell already
"You care about him a lot. Do you let all of your friends touch you like that?"
"Do you touch all the strangers you meet?" he glares still red. I chuckle slightly at his adorable expression.
"No but I kinda like you.."
He freezes and looks down at the ground. He kicks a couple of leaves away and sighs before turning around and starting to walk.
"Lets just keep going... please.." I nod my head and we continue our walk to... where ever he is going to lead me. Maybe to a bedroom? That sounds nice...
