To Starll: Believe me, I really hate Zelda. (As in the princess, not the game series) So I made her sound like an idiot. And ZeldaxLink fanfics just annoy me. Sorry to anyone out there with one. =D

To everyone!: I have been getting a lot of reviews concerning the technology of Hyrule at its current state. I can't say it's an altered universe, because I didn't mean it to be, but let's just say there's a bunch of geniuses living in Hyrule… and the Twilight Realm… right now.

To everyone again!: Thanks for reviewing, and keep it up!!! WOO!

(Midna's POV) Midna walked through the middle of the central circle, holding her head and limping. Why, oh why did the Goddesses make her see that? Why did her mind persuade her to spy on them? It would have been better not knowing.

Midna's mind was going in circles. Queen Zelda and… and King Link. Oh, how it hurt! How much of her life was going to end in a soap opera? And aren't most soap operas tragedies?

She walked into her palace, wondering what they were doing now. Link and his bride must be discussing what sort of filthy dress Zelda would wear. Something elegant, something that would make Midna hurl.

Wait… what if he said no? What if Link chose to stay with Midna? She was from a parallel universe that cannot come in contact with the man she loves. Talk about your Romeo and Juliet, which they oddly end up dying. Foreshadowing, maybe?

What if they would invite her to the wedding? What would she say? What would she wear? What would she do when they kissed?

Midna stumbled on her own feet, and she decided to take a seat on the closest chair, so the floor. She lied down and closed her eyes. She started humming a tune that she made up, and it calmed her. She fell asleep after a while, dreaming about her melody. She and Link dancing to her melody…

At about six thirty in the morning, she woke up with a gasp. Somebody was shaking her shoulder nervously and yelling, "Princess! Princess Midna! Oh dear, wake up!"

"Huh?! What?"

The lady looked relieved. "Oh my goodness, I thought you were dead on the floor! Why did you sleep there? It must have been horribly uncomfortable!"

"I… I was dizzy."

"Why were you dizzy?"

"I don't know, I just was!"

The lady looked taken aback, and stepped back one step. "I am sorry, Princess Midna. I was afraid for your life."

"Thanks for your concern, but it's not needed."

The lady nodded and walked upstairs. She stood up and walked outside. The world around her looked so cruel. She felt like she wanted to be back, safe at home. But the Palace of Twilight didn't give her that homey feel. So where was home?

She wondered what Link and Zelda were doing right now. When would be the wedding? Midna shrugged and walked through the central circle to the Mirror of Twilight. It accepted her through to Hyrule.

So where should she start? Ordon or Hyrule Castle? Probably the Castle. That's where the wedding will be, right? Would it be today?

She warped to the entrance of the East Gate and turned herself into a shadow. She felt like Tarzan- swinging from shadow to shadow, never being seen. And since Castle Town was always so heavily populated, she'll be able to move around easily! This was too easy.

Midna took the shadow of the last guard in the line of six. They walked through the eastern throughfare to the southern one. Shrugging, she took the form of some random man's who was walking towards the central circle. He started to go west, so when he got to the wall, she slipped onto it's shadow. She just hugged the wall until she got to the first doors.

Dammit…There's no shadow on the doors! Ugh, I should have taken the eastern wall! Midna would have to either go around or be a shadow in a place where shadows shouldn't be. The sun was facing the wrong way in the direction she had to go. Midna decided she would risk it. She dashed across the door and went behind it. If she was discovered by someone other than Link or Zelda, she would be killed.

This road was all shadow. She walked up the ramp and slipped through the crack in the doors.

There was no one on this road, so she walked up through the middle as a shadow. The light shined on her, but she didn't care. She slipped through the third door and awed at the beautiful courtyard. She stood there for a minute, before heading onto the front doors.

Midna's eyes flew open. Pink roses were sitting on tables covered in a white cloth. An Alter was posted in the far end of the room, and a white carpet was rolled out to the door.

No… no… no…

A familiar yet annoying voice echoed from the top of the room. Midna looked up to find Zelda talking to some old man.

"Father, have the pews arrived yet? Surely people cannot sit in chairs."

"Not yet. But don't you think we should wait until Link responds to your offer?"

He hasn't said anything yet?

"Father, you know he will say yes! He won't refuse the princess anything."

"Zelda, you may be getting cocky. He may want to remain single."

"I do not think he will be single for long."

Who does she think she is?

"You listen here, okay? If Link may refuse—"

"Which he won't,"

Not if I have anything to do with it!

"— I want you to remain mature."

"Father, you know I will be modest about everything."

"I know dear. Now go talk to your maiden about which dress you shall wear."

"Yes, father. Oh and by the way…"

"What is it?"

"May I add someone to the guest list?"

"… Who may that be?"

"Um, the princess of the Twilight Realm. Midna."

"Absolutely not."

"But daddy!"

"Enough. Go to your maiden!"

Zelda sulked away into one of the million rooms.

So Zelda wasn't so selfish after all. She wanted to invite her. For some reason, that made her feel better about it. She didn't hate Zelda for wanting to marry Link. And… if Link said yes, she may just have to deal with it. Everything would be right. Link would be with someone of his own world, and Midna would find someone in the Twilight. And Midna will come to the wedding, but watch it from afar- from the shadows.

Midna began to get excited. Maybe it would be fun? But she decided it was wasted time standing basically on top of a wall thinking to herself. She warped to Ordon Spring to talk to Link.

Link was sitting on the edge of the water's end, moving his pointer and middle fingers in the water. He looked surprised when she appeared in the center of the pond.

"Midna? What are you doing here?" Link sounded upset.

"I came to talk to you. What's the matter?"

"Nothing."

"I know you well enough that there's something the matter, now speak up."

Link sighed. He said nothing, but picked up a smooth, flat stone and skipped it across the water. It sunk after two successful skips with a plop.

"Come now, I don't bite… hard…" Midna teased.

Link smiled, but continued skipping stones. One hit Midna's ankle and landed on her foot.

"Sorry…" Link murmured.

Midna sat down next to him. "Is this about Zelda?

"Partly."

"And you?"

"Partly."

What else could there be? "Um… being together?"

"…Partly."

So something else was bothering him. But what could it be? Ilia?

"What else is there?"

Link looked up at her. His soft, sad gaze cut deep into Midna's heart. "You, Midna. How could I say yes, when you're still in my life?"

Midna's mouth dropped open a centimeter. Link went back to skipping stones while she continued to gaze at him with wonder. She felt so… in the way. She was keeping Link from doing things in his life. Finally Midna got her speech back again.

"Do you want to say yes?"

Link threw the rock down in the water. It landed with a loud thunk and some of the water splashed Midna on the nose. She flicked it away and looked up at Link when he stood up and turned away from her.

"That's the problem! If I say no, people will hate me and think me an enemy for refusing the Royal Family. If I say yes, then I'll hate myself for saying so and have a miserable life as King of Hyrule. I don't know how to run my own country! And I don't know how to love Zelda when…"

He paused, and all the tension of the conversation for him disappeared. He let his shoulders hang loose, and he stopped clenching his hands.

"…when I already love someone else."

Midna realized what a predicament he was in, and how she loved him so much more when he said that. "Maybe people won't hate you if you said no…"

She stopped there- not wanting him to think that she was pulling for him to say no. "And maybe you won't be so miserable if you said yes."

Link turned around, confusion on his face. "Do you want me to marry Zelda?"

"No! I mean, that's not… I don't…" Midna pulled herself together. "…You do whatever you want."

"Midna, that doesn't help matters."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, that for once I want someone to tell me what to do. I want… help."

Midna completely understood what he meant by that. He wasn't so sure about asking for help, because he's the Chosen Hero and he's supposed to know how to get out of these kinds of things smoothly. Well, not this particular thing.

Her past experiences reminded her of that word: help. When she was thrown out, she needed help. Help gathering the power of the Fused Shadows. And she was a princess- she should have known, shouldn't she?

But she got the help, and her situation was solved. Well, her major situation. Now Link needed help with his minor one.

Midna also realized she had a minor situation. A situation for the health of her heart. Would she be broken if Link married Zelda?

Maybe… maybe they could help each other… But Midna didn't want to think about it too deeply.

Link sat down beside her again. Taking a deep breath, Midna placed her hand on top of Link's. He looked over at her with sad eyes.

"You'll get through it, Link. I know you will."

"Doesn't make me feel better."

Midna smiled a little, which made Link smile. She knew what he said just now was a total lie.

"Yes it does," Midna teased. Link said nothing in response.

"You know Midna, you do get on my nerves sometime.

"Yeah… It's a love-hate relationship."

Link gave a small peck on Midna's cheek before getting up and walking away.
