DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything from The Legend of Zelda stuff. Not a single thing.
A/N Thanks for the reviews! I honestly didn't think people would read this. Huh. Also, I haven't really played this game a lot so I don't know what happened after Link and Zelda started looking for his loftwing. So, I will just be making everything up from now on. Enjoy! :]
I shouldn't have yelled at her. It wasn't her fault. Okay, maybe it was, but that's not the point! What am I doing? Why am I thinking about her this much? I'm probably a still a bit lightheaded. Wait, since when did I start talking to myself?
I started walking up to my house and went up to my bedroom.
"Oh great, my window is still open from that bird this morning." I muttered to myself as I walked over to the window.
My hands rested on the windowsill as I leaned out to catch the cool breeze blowing by. I started thinking about what happened earlier today, after Zelda saved me. The only thing that I remember clearly is her sitting beside me with my head in her lap, and her combing my hair with her fingers. Zelda's never done that to me before; she's never been so... protective of me. I'm not saying that I didn't like it, but, it is strange of her to act that way towards me.
I stopped thinking of Zelda and went over to my bed. I lied down for a few minutes and stared at the ceiling. I noticed some tiny holes in the roof so I squinted to get a better look. I laughed when I remembered what they were from. When Zelda and I were about 8 years old, I got this new sling shot for my birthday. Zelda had given it to me, claiming that she had made it herself. I wanted to try it out, but I didn't want to go outside. It came with a few pebbles so, being the smart person I am, I started shooting them at the roof, even though there was a window right beside us. Most of the pebbles didn't reach the roof, but I tried harder and harder to get them to at least touch the roof. Then it happened. I not only hit the roof, I also put quite a bit of holes in it in the process.
I got up from my bed and paced around my bedroom. Something had changed with Zelda. Nothing bad of course, but there was just something different about her.
"Link!" I heard my name being called from outside.
I automatically knew who it was from her voice. I rushed to the window to see, as I suspected, Zelda walking around, eyes darting everywhere looking for me.
"I'm up here!" I shouted back at her, waving like a lunatic to get her attention.
She waved back and pointed to the door.
"I'll be right up!" She ran to the door and opened it.
I could hear her racing up the stairs, tromping like an elephant.
"H-hey." She said, nearly out of breath.
I stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. I pulled her towards my bed and sat her down. She flopped backwards and let out a sigh.
"I've been looking everywhere for you, Link. I needed to tell you that I found your loftwing. Groose had it locked up in who knows where. I'll tell ya, when I heard that he had taken your loftwing, I-I can't even explain it! Anyways, the race starts in 10 minutes so you better hurry!" 10 minutes? Just how long was I daydreaming for?
My mouth was hanging wide open when I realised that it has been at least three hours. Three hours! Zelda noticed what I was doing and she stood up. She grabbed my right hand and held it with both of hers.
"Don't worry Link. Everything will be fine." She pulled me into a hug, smiled at me and then did something that I was not expecting at all.
She leaned forward kissed me. Not a big kiss, but just a light one. She suddenly realised what she had done and blushed.
"I'll uh, see you later then. Good luck." She smiled sheepishly and swiftly walked out of the room.
I stood there, shocked at what she had done. Then I cursed myself for not doing or saying anything after. I then realised what was different about her; everything. I see her differently, I think about her differently.
"I like her." I said aloud.
I clapped my hand over my mouth, frozen, fearing that someone might have heard that. I slowly turned around and looked to see if anybody was within hearing distance. I sigh of relief escaped my lungs. I then raced out the door and off to the ceremony, not knowing what I was about to do or how I was going to do it.
