Chapter 16

The sun had quickly gone down on this glorious day. Link and I had just finished talking about if he was going to stay or not, and luckily he is going to stay with me here of the surface to protect the Triforce. We both headed down the Statue of the Goddess using Link's sail cloth. He grabbed my waist and we easily floated down. We then headed to the Sealed Temple for shelter. Neither Link not I had any type of material that would help us survive, so I we will have to go back to Skyloft to get some supplies. Once we were inside Link had fallen to the ground thank to exhaustion. I sighed and sat next to him while leaning against a wall.

"Link, are your wounds hurting you?"

Link sat up next to me and replied "not really, the large ones still hurt a bit but the others are fine."

When my father had come down to meet me he had also brought some healing potions. The did work very well but since LInks wounds were from a demon king they did not heal as fast as intended.

"Can I look to see if it is healing alright?"

"Sure"

Link pulled off his green tunic and chain mail under armor to reveal a very large sized scar. There was still some blood and flesh that had not been healed, but it looked to be fine. after examining the rest of his cuts I noticed that I was staring at Link's bare skin. He has no shirt on and I have to admit he has a nice six pack. I instantly realized my embarrassing thoughts. I blushed and quickly turned away so LInk couldn't see.

"Is something wrong, Zelda?"

I quickly turned back to Link and blurted out "N-no nothing, pfft, why would you think that?"

"Well, you turned away really fast and your face turned bright red."

After a second or two Link had a mischievous look on his face.

"Ooo~, I bet you can't resist my amazing body."

Link started to flex in a silly way and I couldn't help but blush more.

"I-It's not like that!"

LInk turned to me and started to pout.

"So I do not have a good body?"

"N-no, wait, maybe?"

"Well I guess that's good enough for me."

Link put his arm around me and warmth instantly engulfed my body. I have just now noticed how tired I am, heh I have just woken up from a thousand year sleep and I'm already tired. I snuggled up to Links body and started to drift into the world of dreams.

I woke up from the bright sun rays that were coming from the ceiling of the temple. I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and looked around. LInk was still sleep next to me so I decided to walke him up.

"Link"

I shook him a bit hoping he would wake. He stirred a bit but then fell back to sleep. I shook him again but this time a little harder. He still did not air which means I will have to use more force. I shook him the hardest I could and yelled "LINK!"

Link woke up startled.

"W-what, is there any danger?!"

Link was frantically looking around and I couldn't help but giggle.

"What?!"

"I was just trying to wake you up."

Link instantly relaxed "oh."

I quickly stood up and started to skip toward the entrance.

"C'mon Link, today we are going to go get some supplies from Skyloft."

Link slowly got up next caught up to me. We opened the doors and headed outside. Link and I called our Loftwings and they soon came down from the sky. I hopped onto mine and so did Link. We were soon in the sky headed towards Skyloft. Once we landed on Sky loft we headed toward the tavern. Once we were inside I instantly felt at home. It has been almost a year since I have last stepped foot in Skyloft, and I now realize just how much I miss it. I really do hope I didn't force LInk into this arrangement. What if he wants to stay in Skyloft but he is stuck with me.

I but the thought away and headed over to a salesman who sold sheilds, swords, arrows, and more.

"Link, do you have any rupees?"

"Yeah"

"Well I think that we should buy you a new sword and some arrows. We should also buy some seeds to plant ourself a garden, so we won't have to rely on Skyloft as much."

"Alright, sounds good to me."

After Link and I had finished buying the supplies we headed over to the Academy to get some sleeping bags, and hopefully later on we will be coming to get all our belongings. I want to stay on the surface and protect the Triforce, but I don't want to live in the sealed temple. I am hoping that eventually me and Link will have a house to stay in, some place to call our new home.

ONce Link and I reached the academy we were bombarded with people. Many of our friends including pipit, Karane, Groose, Cawlin, and Strich. We caught up with each other and then everyone went back to their activitys. I headed to my room while Link headed to his. ONce I got into my room I flopped onto my bed. It felt nice to be back in my room. I got up and packed a couple pairs of my cloths. I also got a spare sleeping back and my brush. I then headed out and met Link next to his room.

We headed outside and leap off the edge of the island onto our Loftwings. ONce we were back on the surface we started to walk towards the sealed temple. While walking there I decided to make some small talk.

"So Link, I was just thinking that it would be nice if we built a house down here. We do not want to live in the sealed temple forever."

"That sounds like a great idea. We should probably start tomorrow since winter is going to be coming soon."

"Yep, I can't wait."

THe sun had set and I was now laying in my sleeping bag. My eyes lids started to feel heavy but before I could dirt off LInk lifted my head onto his lap. I looked up to him and he smiled. I blushed and quickly turned away from him.

"Goodnight, Link."

"Night, Zelda."
