Epilogue
The door emitted a creak as The Twilight Princess slowly opened the entryway to her chambers, one hand on the door and her other wrapped around the hand of the Hero of Twilight. Both companions looked at each other for a brief moment, and smiled. Midna pulled him over to the bed and sat both of them down on the cloudlike furniture. Several seconds of silence passed until Link broke it by saying in a shy tone "You know, we never got to really talk about us, what with that whole adventure…"
In a shy tone matching his, Midna admitted "You're right, we didn't…"
Link took a moment, then continued "So, you know where I stand, I mean how I…what I mean is…"
Link would have babbled for several minutes if Midna hadn't put a finger to his lips and replied "I know…you love me." Midna had an abashed expression on her face as she continued "And you know where I stand, right?"
Link nodded, and then asked "So now that we're both on the same page, what's going to happen to us now?"
Midna looked up at his face; for the first time in her life, she could see a genuine essence of fear swimming in his blue orbs. She then drew him in for a comforting embrace, one that he returned without a second thought. As she stroked his back, she said softly "I can't say that a life with me will be all rainbows and lollipops. Being with a princess will have its challenges, there will be those in power who will try to dissuade us from pursuing a life together because of the differences in our upbringings, and there's still some deep-set hatred for light dwellers among some twili…" It was then that she squeezed him tighter and finished "But no matter what, I will always love you, with all of my heart Link."
She then pulled away just enough to see his reaction; tears of happiness started to flow from his eyes as Link smiled, and then kissed her, all the while sobbing happily. When at last they parted for air, Link half sobbed and half panted "I…I love you too Midna, and I will never leave you."
Midna gave a soft smile, grabbed him by the front of his tunic, and pulled him under the blankets as their newfound love took them to places unknown.
