*Sent* / Zelink Modern AU Fanfiction

Necessary Skill

Ehem... this is part... 22!!! :D Iykyk  (There is some harassment near the end, but not very graphic. If you wish not to read that, then please stop reading when Zelda leaves Hylian Government class. Hope you enjoy the chapter and please don't cancel me... I just want to bring awareness. 

Ok, anyways. Love you all and please enjoy!

Once English class is over I walk out of the classroom and wait for Impa to come out, and once she does we start to walk to our next class together. When we come to my class, I say goodbye to her and walk into my class. I take my seat next to Mipha and give her a little wave. "How are you today, Mipha?" I ask. 

"I can't complain, how are you?" She asks me. 

"I'm doing well, thank you for asking." I say with a soft smile.

"Are you going to the football game?" She asks sweetly. She seems genuinely interested in me... I'm not really used to people talking to me this much besides Impa, Purah... and Link. I blush just thinking about him. 

"Um... no I'm not. Are you?" I ask her.

"I'm not much of a fan of football, but yes I am going." She says blushing a little. "Why aren't you going? If you want you could come with me." She says with a little smile... she is literally so nice. 

"I just am not a football fan... thank you for the offer though. Why are you going if you don't really like football?" I ask her. Why would she want to go if she doesn't like football. 

"Oh..." She says, blushing a little. "It's quite silly... but I'm going to watch a boy play during the game." She says staring down at the table.

"Oh... may I ask who." I'm suddenly very interested. 

"Oh, um... alright." She says shyly. "His name is Link." 

As soon as I process what she says my heart sinks down into my stomach. She... she likes Link? Oh my Hylia... she likes Link! If me and Link start dating... what will happen when she finds out? Will she stop talking to me? I don't want her to be mad at me... I can't let her know about Link... she can't know he asked me out. It will break her heart. Her very kind and gentle heart. Actually... what if I just told her now... would she be upset? Of course she would! Zelda, no! You cannot tell her. 

"Zelda? Are you alright?" She asks, resting her hand up to my arm making me flinch. 

"Yes, yes I'm alright, sorry." I say quickly. 

"What's wrong? You seem distressed." She says concerned. 

"Nothing, nothing is wrong. I was just thinking if I should go to the game with you... I feel like it would be good for me." I say trying to change the topic.

"Yes! You should come. It will be fun!" She says excitedly. I'm glad she moved on from the whole... Link conversation. 

"I'll think about it." I say with a little smile. Mr. Dew brings class to a start and Mipha and I pull out our notebook, highlighters, and pens and start writing down notes from our teachers presentation.

*RIIINNNGGGG*

The bell rings and I grab my bag and walk out with Mipha. "Mipha, do you do any sports at the school?" I ask her once we're out the door of the classroom. I feel like I know nothing about her.

"I do." She says enthusiastically. "I'm on the swim team." 

"Oh really, I can't really swim." I say with a little giggle.

"You can't swim?" She asks in shock.

"No. I was never taught how, but do I really need to learn how to swim?" I say with a tiny shrug of my shoulders.
