I didn't know how long I had been staring at my phone. I had been dreaming of a text message like this for months now. I wanted to kick myself for being so absorbed in this text message. I didn't know what it was about. It could have been about anything. Yet, I couldn't my heart from skipping a beat-

"(Name)," my manager's voice snapped me out of my little trance, "come clock out."

The walk back to my dorm room was just filled with me thinking what Link could possibly want to talk about. I was overthinking what I could possibly say. I think I wrote out a message just to delete it like 60 times. But eventually I did figure out what to say to him.

"Oh! Look I think that's the swan!" I said pointing to the night sky. "There's the head and those are the wings."

"Over there's Orion." Link pointed out.

We had been in the cemetery star gazing for what felt like forever. I brought him here since he had never seen Ordon Cemetery. We had been walking around for a bit, but it had gotten too dark out to see so we decided to sit on one of the benches.

I had a crush on him for a little bit now. I didn't think it would go anywhere, but I enjoyed his company. I thought I'd never be anything but a friend to him. If only I knew...

"When you do get a girlfriend, you should totally take her star gazing. I think that'd be such a romantic date."

"Is this a date?"

I'm so glad it was dark because I flushed so hard when he said that.

I had been hinting to him for so long that I wanted to date. I didn't want to be rejected though so I always played it off by friend zoning him. I always called him 'kiddo' despite him being slightly older than me.

This went on for a while. I'd say something that would hint that I was into him then immediately change the subject. He told me later on that he was so confused if I was into him or not.

Eventually all of this came to an end.

We were joke flirting, then he asked if the but wasn't a bit. I knew I couldn't hide it anymore, so I told him then he confessed to me too.

We ended up talking until 1 A.M.

That night was so magical. What I wouldn't do to go back to that moment.

Every second I stood in the frigid cold made the butterflies in my stomach worse. I hadn't spoken to Link in what felt like forever but in reality, it was only a month.
