Prologue
Zelda watched as Link fell to his knees and the sound of sobs broke the silence. His hands were pressed to his face, regardless Zelda knew they would be the eyes of a man in pain. She was the Princess bred and born, she knew how to read people. 2 steps-3 steps, Would he want her to comfort him? Zelda's public opinion was falling because she wasn't good at showing her emotion. Did he know? He couldn't know.
She would fall to pieces if he knew. When she joined with Midna she saw more sides of the hero than the blue eyed wolf.
Though she hated to admit she might be a little bit in love with him. Zelda shrugged off her hesitation and knelt before the hero and wrapped her arms around him.
To her surprise he moved his arms to circle her. His face was buried in her shoulder. She felt him drift off to sleep and she herself drifted off.
Zelda woke to cool air and a dark sky. She immediately felt the hero's arms circling her. She looked at him, his mop of dirty blonde hair, tan skin, and thin frame. He was handsome by anyone's standards. She hated to do it but she carefully extract herself from his arms.
"Sorry hero, rest well." Zelda walks away and lays down at an acceptable distance away.
Waking up was a slow process for Zelda, she stood and looked for the hero where she saw him last, only to find he wasn't there.
Zelda almost jumped when she felt a tap on her shoulder. Link straightened, "We should go."
She stood and walked with him, "We'll go to the oasis and I can arrange transport from there." Zelda nods. They walk out of the Arbiter's grounds to start something new.
