Author's Note: Got started on this one early so I wouldn't have to rush to get it out. Turns out my siblings are going to let me use the computer! This one is going up early. Hope you're okay with that. Anyway, hello again, my Minish minions! Hope you enjoy this update. I sure do! And I know Captain Falcon hasn't been announced yet, but I'm confident that he's returning. Now, for some bad news. I had a heat stroke spell yesterday. I can't remember anything I said or did after I went unconscious. My sister tells me that I went complete looney... I don't know if I trust her...

Please, make sure to review afterwards!

One Year's Eternity

Chapter 14

Friday November 8, 3:36 P.M.

I was walking back to the dorms from last period. As I neared my destination, I saw Link walking towards me quickly. I stopped and turned around. He slowed his walk. Suddenly, I heard heels clacking on the sidewalk. I saw a girl with a green bow in her silver-blonde hair and a green mini skirt jog up to Link.

Do I really have to deal with Farore now?

She cut Link off in his tracks. She wrapped her arms around his neck. Link took his eyes off of me and looked at the girl that was mauling him. She tried to kiss him, but he backed away. He grabbed her hands and took them off his neck. She responded by wrapping them around his waist instead. She started talking to him and took one of her hands and started climbing his chest with two fingers.

I ran. I ran to Link.

"Link!"

Farore reacted before he did. She let go of him to look at me and cross her arms. She pulled her green shawl tighter around her arms.

I reached Link. He started walking to me slowly, Farore glaring at both of us.

"Bye, Farore," he said. "I need to go."

"Why?" she snarled. "What are you doing with her?"

"I'm…" I stuttered.

Stand your ground.

"I'm teaching him Labrynnian," I said, grabbing one of my elbows.

"Right," she snarked, "like anyone believes that."

"She's right, Farore," Link broke in. "I'm falling behind in class, so she's helping me."

"Fine," she snapped. She blew a kiss at Link. "I'll see you later, then."

She stormed off. Her hair bow started falling out. It slipped off of the end of her curled ponytail and landed on the ground. She didn't notice it and kept walking. I sprinted to pick it up. I grabbed the silk ribbon and help it tightly.

"Farore!" I shouted. "You dropped something."

She turned around, making her ponytail whip around and hit her in the neck. She looked at my hand, the back up at me.

"Why did you steal my ribbon?!" she growled.

"It slipped off," I said, handing it to her.

"You're just full of lies today, aren't you, Harp?" she hissed. She ripped the ribbon out of my hand and turned around. The curls came back and hit my face. I heard her chuckle.

I want to punch your face into those blonde curls so bad right now.

I turned and headed for Link.

"Thanks," he said slowly, a smile started to curl onto his lips, "for saving my ass."

"It's the least I can do," I mumbled, bowing my head. "And what was that all about, anyway?"

"Nothing. And I see that Midna's starting to rub off on you," he said, nudging my arm with his.

"Is that a good thing?" I joked. He only laughed and kept walking. He opened the door for me once we got to the dorms. We stepped into the elevator. I pushed '9'. The doors closed shortly after.

"You have no idea how tempted I was to kiss you out there," he mumbled.

"I'm glad you held back," I said, flicking the point of his ear. He jolted back and grabbed it.

"Stop," he said, "or I won't challenge you to a game of Smash today."

"That's fine," I replied, wrapping my arms around his waist. "I'll just challenge you then."

He glared at me sarcastically. I dug my face into his shoulder to hide my blushing. We stayed quiet for a minute.

"Oh, Zelda," he said, surprising me, "I needed to ask you something."

I moved my arms up to his neck. "And what is that?"

He sighed. He started humming. I could make out the melody, but I didn't remember the title.

"Humming doesn't help, Link!" I said, messing up his hair. The elevator dinged, and I let go of him. He ran a hand though his hair, messing it up more. I turned to him after stepping out.

"Smash?" I asked.

"Why not?" he replied sarcastically.

We played at least 15 rounds. I lost count. I basically cheated, though. I used the most over-powered character in the game; Lady Palutena. They had given her so many hard-hitting attacks. I beat Link every time, even with him playing as Captain Falcon.

"I should have given up when you chose Palutena," he said, leaning back in his chair. I laughed and ran my finger down his arm.

"You really should have," I joked.

He looked at me manically. He grabbed my arm and stood up, pulling me along with him.

"Now," I started, "that question?"

"Oh, yeah," he mumbled, bowing his head. "I was hoping you would forget about that."

I grabbed onto his hand. "Link, what is it?"

He sighed and wrapped his spare hand around mine. "Zelda, you already knew I liked you."

"That's not a question," I replied, "but it's a true statement."

"I just wanted to know…" he broke off.

"Link, I think it's obvious if I like you," I said. "You don't need to ask that!"

He hugged me tightly. "Just making sure."

I leaned back to end the hug. I got on the tip of my toes and kissed him. He kissed back. Time seemed to pass by like nothing.

The door opened.

Midna!
