Her
Hours and hours of dancing have taking a toll on my energy. I find a seat to rest, hoping no one else asks me to dance. The only exception would be him. It wouldn't matter how tired I am, if he was here, I would be able to dance for hours with him, never stopping. Sadly, that's not the case, as I see my fiancé reach his hand out, asking me to dance. I sigh to myself as I take his hand to dance once again. I close my eyes, trying to picture myself dancing with my true love and as I open my eyes again, I see...Link.
I look into his eyes, his handsome blue eyes, looking back into mine. He gives me a slight nod, showing me that he never forgot. I start to run to him, yelling his name, not caring about the people around me, but he leaves. I run outside hoping to see him, yelling his name over and over again, but I see nothing. I look around, trying to spot him, but he's gone. I collapse to my knees in tears, not knowing why he left. I run back inside to see people trying to calm me down, but I have none of it, crying my way to my room, where I collapse on my bed.
My fiancé comes in to ask what's wrong but I yell at him to get out, wanting to be left alone. I go and look out the window, still crying, wondering where he could possibly be. "This sucks," I say to myself. All my old questions have been answered, but now I just have one important question...why did he leave?
I walk in the dark night, not knowing what to do anymore. I just wasted my chance, all because of my stupidity. I don't even go back to the Inn. I go onto the rooftops again and lied down, looking up at the stars. I admire the night sky, wishing that Zelda could be beside me doing the same. I run through all the questions I have, in my mind.
Does she remember me? Yes, or else she wouldn't have ran after me.
Does she love me? Yes. Why else would she cry over me?
Does she love her fiancé? No. I was a fool for thinking so, but after seeing what happened tonight, its obvious she doesn't truly love him.
Do I love her? Of course... I will always love her.
I try to think of ways to see her again, and this time not mess it up. I'm going to talk to her, and tell her how I feel about her, how I always felt about her. I just need to get to her again. After hours of thinking I finally come up with a plan. I will write a letter, give it to a guard, and pay him some rupees to give it to Zelda. I know its a long shot but its my only chance.
I climb back down to street level, running as fast as I can to get back to the Inn. I barge through its doors without a care in the world. Catching the attention of everyone there. I run up to my room, lock the doors, grab some ink and parchment, and begin to write. I sit there for hours, making absolutely sure this letter is perfect. I overlook it again and again, not concentrating on anything else. Finally, I finish. I put it in my pocket to keep it save, and lay down on my bed in exhaustion. Today has been a long day. I try to keep my eyes open but they get heavier and heavier by the second, and I have no choose but to fall asleep.
I awake in morning, to the noise of Castle Town. I get up and put on my green tunic, looking in the mirror while doing so. My appearance looks like a man who hasn't had proper sleep in months. I check my pocket, just to make sure the note is still there. I head out into Castle Town with one goal: Contact Zelda.
I head to the castle entrance, asking one of the guards if I can go in. Giving me a look of disproval, he says "Sorry, but only guards and people of royalty can go in at this time of day." I try to convince him to let me in but he wouldn't budge. When he says no for the tenth time, I say impatiently "Fine, but can you at least deliver a letter to the Princess for me?" He looks at me like I'm crazy and says "What makes you think that I would deliver a letter, to the princess, from a stranger?" I humorously respond back with "Oh I don't know, maybe for me and a hundred rupees?" He looks out me with eyes wide open, agreeing not even a second after I finished. I tell him that he'll get his rupees, after he delivers the letter, and that I promise that I will still be here when he comes back.
He leaves goes to deliver the letter as I find a wall to lean on as I wait. After 10 minutes, he finally comes back, and I give him what I promise. He thanks me for keeping this promise but I say "No, thank you," as I turn around, and leave to where I said for her to meet me. I take my time to get there, as I wonder if she truly got the letter, and if she will show up, but more importantly...if she will forgive me?
It starts to get darker, as I arrive at the meeting area. I look around the area, enjoying the view I have of Hyrule. I sit there waiting for her to show up, hoping I hear her voice behind me, calling my name. I close my eyes, enjoying the slight breeze of the wind, as I wait for my beloved Zelda.
