In case you didn't realize it from some of the other stories '' means there is a big time jump.
Enjoy!
"Link?" Sheik reached down and shook his love's shoulder. Who knew that the ball would nail him right in the face.
Blue eyes fluttered open. "Huh?"
"Oh, thank the gods. I thought you'd been seriously injured."
"Umm..." Link scowled as he sat up more fully. "No offense, but don't touch me."
Sheik's crimson orbs widened as he retracted. Something definitely wasn't right. Why was he acting like this? Was he upset with Sheik now? "Link? Are you okay?"
"I feel fine, besides a massive headache." ... "Now explain to me why a total stranger is asking me if I'm alright."
"Total..." The red-eyed beauty brought a hand up to his mouth in shock. Did Link forget about him? He longed to reach out and touch his boyfriend, but didn't. "Link... We... We aren't strangers."
"Uh, how could we be anything else. I don't know you."
"I... Let me get Dark. He'll know what to do."
"How do you know my brother?" Sheik ignored Link and quickly began messaging his boyfriend's twin. This only ticked off the Hylian. "Hey! Explain yourself to me!"
"Dark, who is that guy?"
"Uh, wow. You really did forget."
"Forget what?"
"Link... Sheik is..." Dark ran a hand through his darker hair and sighed. How was he supposed to word this in a way that wouldn't make Link upset. "Sheik is... someone really special to you."
"What do you mean by that?"
"I think it would be better if you asked Sheik what he is to you."
"Why? I don't want to go around him." He makes me feel strange. But not in a bad way...
Link's eyes widened at the sight before him.
Sheik was sitting within his mound of pillows, hands down between his legs. It was obvious the younger was pleasuring himself. A deep blush at being caught in the act, and especially in Link's bed instead of his own, took over his whole face.
"I-I-" Tears fell down his soft cheeks as Sheik quickly removed his hands and jumped from the bed.
The older's heart went out for him. The poor guy had lost everything, only to find comfort in someone that recently forgot about him completely.
"Sheik." Frightened, the Sheikah made a mad dash for the bathroom door.
Lucky for Link, he beat him to it. Unlucky for Link, Sheik found the closet just as good.
"I'm not upset with you."
"Go away."
"Not until you talk to me. You know you can always t-"
"Could! Not can!" Link felt Sheik's fists hit the door in frustration. "You don't know anything about me! I can't trust you! Not when you've forgotten everything we've been through!"
"Sheik-"
"No! You don't know anything! Not how we met or how you pulled me back from the brink of suicide! I can still feel your hands on my body and when I close my eyes, I see your damned lopsided smile above me as you-" Desperate sobs made it through the door and Link ached with longing. He wished more than anything to pull the distraught male into his arms and comfort him.
"But I want to remember." He rest his head against he wall and sighed deeply. "I want to share everything with you. I want you to trust me. Aren't I still the same man you love? How, then, can you not trust me?"
"Because you remember nothing!"
"Then tell me about it. Word for word, tell me what we said to each other... what happened... how you felt... the things I did for you. I will listen to every bit of it." Link leaned in to rest his forehead against the door. "Please, Sheik. I want to love you fully again, but I can't if I don't know every part of you and what made it so."
So many places this story could have gone.
Bye!
