Well, for this chapter, I decided to try something new. I've been wanting to write one of those fics made up of one sentence for a word. I only came up with thirty words, instead of fifty or one hundred. I just wanted to do something different.
Yeah, I don't own The Legend of Zelda. Still.

Chapter Four, or The Chapter of Thirty Moments
Pairing: This is all total Link x Sheik fluff.
XXXXXXXXXX
1. Brown:
It was no secret that Link's favorite color was green, as he never hid the fact; however, when Sheik entered the kitchen, eyes heavy with sleep, wearing one of Link's old brown shirts, he giddily thought brown might be rising on his list.
2. Salvation:
When Sheik swooped in to save Link, pulling his three-year-old cousin off of his leg, only to cradle the girl in his arms and coo softly at her, Link had no trouble admitting that his 'savior' was the most beautiful sight ever.
3. Judging:
Sheik knew it was in people's nature to judge, and it normally didn't bother him; but when Link noticed the woman looking down at them and pulled Sheik in for a very public kiss, he figured he should let people bother him more, if only to be comforted by Link.
4. Worried:
Sheik was a worrier by nature, always concerned about something, so Link took every opportunity possible to pull him close and hold him for no reason at all.
5. Half:
Sheik insisted that, no matter what it was (money, chocolate, or whatever), that he and Link share it it half; Link, however, always managed to slip some of his share into Sheik's pile.
6. Accidental:
Sheik always 'accidentally' rented scary movies, if only so he could jump into Link's arms every five seconds.
7. Count:
Link couldn't help but count every second he was away from Sheik, and how long it would be before he could jump back into the other blonde's arms.
8. Committing:
Sheik had never been so scared, and excited, to commit to something as he was the moment Link took his hand and slid down on one knee.
9. Conceived:
Any preconceived notion of Link's dislike for cats was shattered the moment Sheik walked into his room and saw Link curled up on the couch, Fluffy snoozing in his arms.
10. Owe:
Sheik always said he owed Link more than he would ever know; Link simply took each moment their lips were pressed together as his 'payment'.
11. Shop:
Link hated to shop, so Sheik took care of the groceries, but when Sheik broke his leg, Link finally broke down and went to the store; three hours later, he returned, quite shaken, crawled on the couch with Sheik, and whispered against the other's lips, "You're amazing."
12. Beyond:
Like most couples, Link and Sheik did fight occasionally, but it was beyond Link how and why Sheik always forgave him instantly.
13. Tight:
Once, when they got lost and wandered down an alley, Link placed an arm around Sheik as they passed the usual shady characters, and, as his hold tightened, Sheik had never felt safer.
14. Strong:
During their first year together, on the anniversary of the death of Sheik's parents, Link skipped school to find him, and, as he was gathered into Link's comforting arms without any words, Sheik realized just how strong their bond was.
15. Glory:
Even in the glory of winning the State championship in basketball their Senior year, Link's hand still managed to find it's way into Sheik's.
16. Action:
Link always was a man of action, so immediately after every fight, he set off to make it up to Sheik.
17. Fancy:
Although Link loved taking Sheik out and seeing him dressed up, his favorite sight was Sheik curled up on the couch, in Link's large shirt, arms opened invitingly.
18. Behind:
Sheik was comforted by the fact that Link did not stand behind him, but instead stood beside him supportingly.
19. Through:
Even when he was bone-weary, Link did and gave Sheik whatever he wanted, because he was Sheik's through and through.
20. Till:
Link loved that, whenever he was leaving for a business trip, Sheik never said goodbye; he would press his lips to Link's and whisper, "Till you get home again."
21. Pack:
No matter how bad a fight got, even if Sheik left the house, he would never pack anything, and Link was grateful; it was Sheik's promise that he would always come back.
22. Interest:
Link was constantly on alert for people showing interest in HIS blonde, but he couldn't hold back a grin when, the one time a co-worker flirted with him, Sheik stormed up, ravished Link's mouth very publicly, and stormed back off.
23. Shame:
When Link pulled Sheik into a corner to keep his boss from seeing them, Sheik was worried that Link was ashamed of him, but Link quickly put that fear to rest, "I hate having to watch her flirt with you."
24. Command:
Link was always cheesier than a Disney movie, but Sheik couldn't help but grin when he leaned over, "Your wish is my command."
25. Midst:
Even in the midst of chaos, Link always took time to make Sheik feel special with a few well-placed words, "I love you."
26. Carelessly:
Sheik never was one to throw 'I love you' around carelessly, so Link felt a thrill every time he heard it directed towards him.
27. Uplifted:
Even when he had a horrible time at work, Link always felt better as soon as he walked through the door and caught sight of his favorite pair of red eyes.
28. Restless
Sheik was a restless sleeper, but it only took Link running a hand through his hair to calm him down.
29. Seven
Sheik never slept later than seven, because he wanted to see Link off every morning.
30. Custom
Sheik never went to bed without a kiss from Link; it was his favorite tradition.

Sappy fluff! Gah, I never realized how hard it is to write JUST one sentence. Like I said, this was just an experiment. I wanted a challenge. I hope you liked the results anyway!
