Anyway, let's get started with Young Link x Nana! Enjoy!
Title: 'Crush'
Couple: Young Link x Nana, with a bit of Zelda x Link
Summary: Link's babysitting his younger self when the little Kokiri asks a question…he gets an answer, but was it necessarily the RIGHT one?
Dedication: Turquoise Lunarian, by request.
"Aim higher!"
"Like this?"
"No, no…a bit lower, and—that's good. Now try shooting the target like I did."
He holds his bow with tight, but sweaty hands, and shuts one eye in concentration as he eyes the red and white dot hanging from the tree. He hopes for a bulls-eye, and releases the arrow.
He manages to hit it just in the outer ring from the middle.
"Aw man," he groans, but he's surprised when his older self nods, looking rather impressed.
"Not bad, not bad," Link comments, and grins. "If we keep up with this practicing, you might even get the bulls-eye within a week."
The little boy's eyes light up in excitement as he stares at his older self hopefully.
"Really?" he squeaks, and when Link nods, he lets out a cheer and pumps his fist into the air. "Alright! Who's the man! Who's the man?"
"I am, since I'm older," the Hero of Time huffs, but he smiles jokingly, and ruffles up the younger boy's hair, messing up his hat in the process. "C'mon. Let's take a break, and eat something…I think Zelly packed some lunch for us."
He nods, and follows the older boy towards a tree, where they both sit down; he watches as Link pulls out a bag, and licks his lips hungrily once he's handed a large sandwich, and a bottle of water.
"Thanks!" he chirps, and immediately begins to eat rather messily; his older self rolls his eyes, and hands him a napkin before he, too, begins to eat.
The two of them sit there, eating quietly before the younger one of the two pauses from devouring his sandwich to stare at his boots with a frown. Link sees this, and stops eating to look at his mini-self curiously.
"What's up?" he asks.
His younger self hesitates for a brief moment before looking at Link warily.
"Erm…you're good with dealing with girls, right?"
What?
Link scratches his head awkwardly, but nods nonetheless. "Uh…I guess, yeah, but…" he trails off as he realizes something, and stares at Young Link for a moment before bursting out laughing. "No…no way! You like a girl!"
"Oh shut-up!" he snaps, and starts pouting. "I knew I should've gone to Zelda instead of you!"
This only seems to make Link laugh harder; he can't help it, since he keeps on imagining his younger self asking a girl how to ask another girl out!
But, his laughter eventually settles down, and he chuckles. "Okay, okay…I'll stop." Link says, and a devilish glint appears in his eyes. "Soooo…who's the lucky lady?"
Young Link scowls, a blush in his cheeks. "I don't have to tell you who it is! I just need help asking her out on a date!"
"I'm not going to help you if I don't even know who's the girl, mini-me," Link says firmly. "So talk, or deal with it by yourself!"
"Fine!" he cries, but quiets down and shuffles uncomfortably. He mumbles something, but his older self can't hear it.
"Come again?" Link asks, grinning slyly, and leaning in closer. "I didn't hear you."
"I said it's…" he sighs, and looks away, definitely blushing brighter now. "…Nana. It's Nana."
Silence.
Link blinks, and then lets out a hoot, grabbing his younger form and giving him a nuggie, grinning wider than before.
"I never knew you had it in ya, mini-me!" he exclaims, laughing as the younger boy manages to squirm out of his grip. "Good on you!"
"Shut-up!" Young Link growls, and begins to glare daggers at his older self. "You know who I like! Now tell me how to ask her out!"
The Hero of Time looks at the young boy for a second before leaning back against the tree, placing his hands behind his head comfortably, and closing his eyes. He's silent for a moment before he answers.
"Just tell her," he says bluntly.
Young Link stares at him, wondering if he heard correctly. "Eh?"
Link opens one eye, and grins slyly at his younger self; his younger self, whose still quite naïve, clueless, and overall too young to truly know much about love.
"Just tell her how you feel, then go in for the kill."
She walks down the hallway, slurping at her pink snow cone that she got from the kitchen; in her other hand there's another blue one, which is meant for her brother, and she seems so happy, and carefree.
That is, until she feels somebody tap her on the shoulder, and sees that it's Young Link.
She immediately turns as pink as her parka, and looks up at him with wide eyes, feeling her heart begin to pound, and her stomach get all fluttery.
"Y-Young Link?" she squeaks, and gulps, trying to get herself together. "Um…w-what can I do for you?"
He doesn't reply; he just stares at her, mouth open, but no words coming out. She frowns, becoming concerned, and nudges him lightly.
"Hey," she calls gently. "You okay? Y. L? Y. L? Hey!"
He snaps out of his trance, and realizes she's standing there, looking worriedly at him.
So, he blurts out quickly, "Ilikeyoualotsodoyouwanttogooutwithme!"
A blank expression crosses Nana's face, and she blinks. "Sorry Y.L, but you spoke too fast…I, um…couldn't understand what you just s-said…"
I'm going to get back at Link if this doesn't work, he thinks miserably, and, while blushing a bright red, he turns to Nana, looking ever so nervous.
"Uh…" he hesitates, and rubs the back of his head. "I, erm, uh…I, er, kinda like you a-a lot, and…well…" This is it! He thinks, and shuts his eyes tightly as he just gets it over with. "…I was wondering if you'd l-like to go out with me s-sometime?"
There. He feels proud, having said it, but notices that after a few minutes, Nana hasn't replied; he feels his stomach give a sickening twist, and dares to open his eyes.
Nana's still standing in front of him, but she looks stunned, her face completely red; the two snow cones in her hands have fallen to the ground, and have been forgotten, and she looks like she'll faint any second.
He pokes her curiously. "Nana? What's up with you? Nana, you- EH!"
She lets out a small murmur and faints, landing in his arms; he lets out a startled cry, almost dropping her, but manages to keep her there, her small, delicate head on his shoulder. He blushes at how close her face is to his, and is about to try to wake her up when a dark, evil, and most of all angry voice hovers in the air.
"Young Link…what did you do with my sister?"
He's relaxing just underneath a tree in its shade, lying down with a piece of grass in his mouth, when he hears somebody cough nearby; he opens his eyes lazily to see his girlfriend standing beside him, and quickly gets up, grinning.
"Zelly!" he cries, and opens his arm to hug her. "I never knew you'd be coming to see me h-"
She doesn't leap into his arms as he expects. Instead, she folds her arms and glares disapprovingly at him.
"You didn't give Young Link very good advice," she scolds. "Nana's a shy girl! How could you just tell Young Link to blurt out his feelings for her? Now she's fainted!"
Link rubs the back of his head. "Er…well, that is a shame…" he mutters, sweatdropping.
Zelda looks at him. "What's your excuse, Link?"
He smiles sheepishly. "I don't have an excuse, Zelly…"
"Then you're coming with me to apologize to Young Link, and-"
"…but I love you lots!" he quickly adds, trying to get out of trouble with 'sweet talk'. "You're my princess, my light, my shining star, my-"
She drags him off anyway, learning some things in the process.
One: never to ask Link for advice.
Two: that Young Link had a crush on Nana just like she had thought.
And three…well, her boyfriend was a dork.
Too bad she loved him too much to really care.
