Chapter Three:

The Next Morning and Sore Throats

It is the next morning, and surprisingly Zelda and Saria were the first ones to wake.

Zelda told Saria about Link .

"So, then he also gave me his number!"

"Aw, Zel I'm so excited for you!"

"Thanks, I asked him if he wanted to meet for breakfast this morning."

"Oh, you should totally call him and go to the Café!"

"Sounds good! I just hope he's up I don't want to wake him."

"Well, I saw him watching you leave with a really happy face and I'm sure he's like waiting for you."

"Okay, I'm gunna go call him."

Zelda walks outside on the patio to call Link.

Dial tone……Dial tone….Dial tone.

Link- "Hello?"

Zelda- "Hey, Link. It's Zelda."

Cupping the phone all excited Link- "Oh, hey!! What's up?"

Zelda- "Nothing really, just glad I didn't wake you up or anything."

Link- "It's okay I was awake, kinda hoping you would call." Link Chuckled.

Zelda- "Oh okay, anyway would you like to meet me at the Café?"

Link- "Awesome! What time?"

Zelda- "How's 10 o' clock for you?"

Link- "It's perfect. I'll see you there." "And hey! Breakfast is on me."

Zelda- "Aw you don't have to, thank you"

Link- "Oh your welcome it's my pleasure."

Zelda- "See you later, Link."

Link- "Bye."

Zelda walks back inside to tell Saria.

"Oh my goddesses, SARIA!"

"Sooo? How did it go?!"

"GREAT! It's Café at 10!"

"That's great, well you should be getting ready!"

"I'm off!"

Zelda picks out her clothes, and she is dressed up in blue jeans, and a beautifully designed rose colored sweater.

"Alright, Saria how do I look?"

"Beautiful as always."

"Can you just tell the girls where I went if I 'm not back before they wake up?"

"Okay, but why would you be back that early? Go play!"

"Thanks, bye Saria!!."

"Later!."

Zelda is just approaching the Café, and sees Link is already sitting at a table.

"Well, hello there, Link."

"Good morning." "You look as beautiful as this morning, Zelda."

"Thank you."

"Sorry if I made you feel like you were late, but I just wanted to be early for you incase you got here early."

"It's no problem, thanks for the thought of that though." "You are so sweet!."

"So what would you like a coffee?"

"Sure, but de-caf please."

"Okay." "Funny I also get de-caf."

"Are you just saying that?"

"No, I swear." "I really think we might be in common a little."

"You have a point." "I mean we both like Paramore, de-caf coffee, good dancers."

"I'm glad you see it that way because I really like you." Link blushed a lot.

"I really like you too, Link." "As a matter of fact I kept thinking about last night before I could sleep I was excited."

"The same with me only I told my room mate Sheik before I slept."

"Oh that reminds me I forgot to ask you where you lived." Zelda asked.

"I live on 733 Forest Boulevard."

"Wow really?"

"Yeah there are a lot of trees so just like your neighborhood its quiet, but there are less people."

"I have passed by there a couple of times, and the houses look so cozy."

"Yeah Sheik and I made our place look very medieval." "You know like swords and shields on the walls, horse statues, and more."

"Wow that sounds very interesting." Zelda loves horses and when she heard medieval she thought of Link as her knight in shining armor.

"Well, Sheik isn't home right now so do you want me to show you my house?"

"If it's no problem I would love to see your house!"

"That's great well whenever you are ready."

"Oh my coffee is done, I'm ready."

"Okay."

Link led Zelda on the way to his house and as they approach Zelda was in shock .

"Well here we are!"

"Link, you have a beautiful house." Zelda's jaw dropping lower.

"Thank you, mind if I show you around?"

"I don't mind at all."

"Okay."

They walk inside, Zelda first, and the first object Zelda comments on is a picture of a horse.

"I love horses, and especially this picture."

"Well I think you can add that to the 'in common' list because horses are my favorite animals, too."

"You know I have a horse, but she's by my father's stables on Lon Lon avenue."

"That's cool I have a horse, too."

"Aw, what's its name?"

"Her name is Epona, what about yours?"

"Her name is Ivory."

"Nice name I assume she's gray, or white?"

"Yep she's a whitey."

"My horse is a blood bay with a rare color of a mane and tail, which are both white."

"Wow, you have a prize there huh?"

"She's so good."

They both snap out of the conversation and Link continues to tour his house until he stops at the end to ask Zelda a question.

"Well, there you have it."

"Your house is awesome."

"Thanks, listen can I ask you something?"

"Sure." Zelda starts getting nervous.

"What are you doing tomorrow night?"

"Umm, I'm not sure probably nothing why?"

"I was wondering if I could take you out to dinner."

"Oh, Link I would love to!"

"Sweet relief." "I have been holding that in the whole tour."

"Aw, but see it wasn't hard."

"Actually I was hoping you were being impressed."

"I sure was."

"I'm glad."

Zelda and Link held an awkward silence after the sweet talking and stared into each others eyes. Link started moving towards Zelda staring slightly at her lips. He gently kissed her and then broke off.

"Oh gosh…I'm so sorry, Zelda."

"Apology is unnecessary, Link please don't stop."

Yet again they kissed, but slower and deeper enjoying the moment. They ended up in Link's room lying on the bed with Zelda on top of him. They knew it was time to stop and sat up next to each other.

"Wow, you're a really good kisser" Zelda was bursting with happiness inside.

"So are you."

"I'm glad we knew when to stop because I just met you I don't want to move fast."

"Oh jeez, was I moving too fast?!"

"No, no silly."

"Ok good." Link chuckled. "So wait….does this mean you want to go steady?"

"Yes, I would love you to be the one." "I'm not going to hide it but when you described your house as being medieval, I thought of you as my knight in shining armor."

"That's really cute, I'm glad to be your knight in shining armor."

"Well, I think I should be heading back to my house now."

"Okay, no problem, I'll walk with you."

As they approached Zelda's house……..

"Like I said I wish I could keep you."

"If I could maybe one day it will be a wish come true."

"I would hope so."

"So I'll call you later?"

"Okay."

"Bye, thanks for breakfast, and…everything." Zelda gives him a kiss.

"My pleasure, good-bye."
