Now, Link was no stranger to getting hit in the face (He did play soccer for hylias sake) but when he got distracted due to something that his teammates couldn't pinpoint, that was odd to them. "Link, dude what was so distracting for you?" Sidon inquired, and Link just, didnt know how to respond to that, was he meant to tell them he was looking at the pretty stranger who he saved from getting a possible concussion?, "Oh, I thought I saw a pretty butterfly" he signed nervously, Teta (A goron on his team) stared at him suspiciously, "Uh huh, sure dude, just like, dont eat it again" he muttered, causing his teammates to start laughing and Link to turn red, "That was one time Teta" He quickly signed, face morping into a pout, much to the amusement of his teammates
"uhh, Dude?" one of his teammates, (Teba, a rito male) spoke, catching Link and the rest of the teams attention, "You're uh, nose holes uh, messes up my guy" he says, putting one of his fingers to his beak, causing his teammates to turn to look at Link as he puts his hand on his face, his expression quickly morphing into one of shock when he feels something wet on his nose, he quickly pulls his hand away to see it covererd in crimson red liquid, his teammates letting out a collective "oooo thats bad" as they wince, imagining themselves with it. "Do you guys want me to get Mipha? I know she doesnt have class today" Sidon offers, (did he do it as an excuse to see his sister? maybe.) the soccer team collectively nodding their head, except Link, who was now actually running after a butterfly, quite fast actually.
At Miphas dorm
"Link, you must be more careful, I wont be close forever" she chastises, moving her hand over Link's nose as the bleeding stops, Link looks sheepisly at his hands as she lectures him, no matter how softspoken she is, it never fails to make him feel like a 5 year old getting chastised by his mother.
"Sorry, Mipha" he mumbles, causing Mipha to let out a soft giggle, "Im not mad at you Mr.Wields A Huge Sword And Almost Cuts Sidons Arm Off" she teases, "That was an aciddent Mipha, and I already apologized" He grumbles, crossing his arms and letting out a huff, blonde locks falling infront of his face, "I know, I know" she says, putting her hands up in a mock surrender, her voice holding a playfull tone, they stare at each other before breaking out into giggles, "But seriously, I might always be willing to heal you, but I wont always be close enough" Mipha says, a serious tone consuming her words.
Link looked away again, "I know Mipha, 'ts not my fault sh- the butterfly was pretty" he says, causing Mipha to look at him suspiciously, "Uh huh, now what'd the butterfly look like?" she inquires, causing Link to souttee, "Uh, uhm, yellow?" he spits out, unease lacing his tone as his pale cheeks were dusted with a rosey hue, causing Mipha to let out a giggle, "Im just messing with you Link, now shouldnt you get back to practice?" she asked, small giggles breaking through as Link nodded and booked it towards the door.
At the Soccer Field
What Link was not expecting when he returned was to see his team in an argument with another team, specifically the archery team.
"Listen fishy, we have to practice and your in our way so move." Revali (head of the archery team) said, staring at Sidon as he smirked, "Seriously Revali, thats a low blow, even for you" Teba retorts, annoyance lacing his tone, "Oh hush, you had to chance to join the archery team and you declined it, though Im not suprised, seeing as how you've always been the weakest flyer" Revali sneers as Tebas face morphs into one of hurt.
"And would you look at that, here comes wonder boy" he spits out as if the words were poison on his tounge, Links head tilting in confusion, wonder boy? He was good at soccer but he wouldnt call himself a wonder.
"Revali for once, can you fuck off?" Sidon yells, his normally cheerful demenor cracking as annoyance spills through, shocking his teammates as they havent heard him cuss out of annoyance, "Hey kids! Whats going on over here?" Coach Daruk asks, walking over to the field as Sidon and Revali glared at each other.
(The rest of the soccer and archery team were talking among themselves, as they were very uncomfortable with the energy)
"Nothing Coach, we were just talking about who got the field today" Sidon responded, his cheerful attitude returning once again, "Revali here thinks that its the archerys teams turn to have the field, but we remember reserving the field for our practice" Sidon added on, his signature smile showing as he put his arm behind his head, "Oh! Thats my fault, sorry Revali and teammates, I switched the schedule yesterday so they [The soccer team] could practice" Daruk awkwardely chuckled as Revali's smug face fell, "Hm, very well, come on everyone" irritation lacing his tone as he glared at Sidon before turning around and walking off with the rest of the archery team.
