Chapter. 22

Zelda's Pov: *Next day*

We are all packed and out the door before my grandparents have a chance to say good-bye. "Go! Go! Impa go faster. I don't want to stay here longer than I have to!" I say, rushing through the door. "Okay! Okay! I'm going. I'm going..." Impa groans tiredly. "What time is it?" Purah grumbles, lugging herself to the car. "5:30am on S-S-Sunday morning...." Paya mutters, climbing into the car. "Ugh! Zelda! Why do we have to leave right now??" Impa growls, shoving Purah into the car and practically jumping in after her. The driver tries to take the bags from the ground, my hands and Links. "I can do it, make your job easier." Link smiles. "i-I... I should do it, really." He says hesitantly. "no its okay. I've  got it, go take a break also you should make sure Impa isn't vandalizing your car." Link chuckles as there's a thunk in the car. The driver nods, running over to his door. Link puts his bags under his arms and picks up Impa's, walking to the trunk. I follow him. "You ready to go home?" Link asks, placing the bags in the car. "very." I sigh as he takes my bags from my hands. "couldn't tell." He jokes, walking back to the rest of the bags. I pick up Paya's and he picks up Purah's and we load them into the car. As we're walking to the car door, Link pokes me in the side. "Ah! Don't! I'm very ticklish!!" I squeak, trying to doge his hands. "Good to know." He grins, wiggling his fingers at me. "Don't!" I warn as he wriggles his eyebrows. "really, don't." I laugh, running to the door, climbing into the car. "Impa! help!" I squeal as Link pulls me from the car. I grab Impa's hands for just a moment before I'm pulled into Links arms and he starts tickling me. "Link please! have mercy!" I laugh, starting to cry. "Ha! You wish!" He grins evilly. "P-please! We have a plane t-to catch!" I laugh, trying to break free from him. "Nice try, Its a privet plane! it can wait a little longer." He says with a triumphant smile. "Please! I beg of you!!" I scream through my laughter. "I'll let you go if you promise me something." He smirks, continuing to tickle me as tears of laughter spill from my eyes. "Anything!" I yell as Impa, Purah, and Paya all poke their heads out the door, all of them looking past us. "A kiss, right here, right now." He mutters. "Okay!" I laugh as he stops tickling me, but doesn't let go. He cups my cheeks, smiling at me sweetly. I smile back and he kisses away my smile. "Okay... lets go." I breathe, placing my hands on his as he rubs away my tears of laughter with his thumbs. He pulls away. "As you wish." He smiles, helping me into the car.

We get on the plane, take our seats and take off. take off always makes me nervous and I grab Link's hand, just like I did last time. "So.. What's the important thing you want to talk to your dad about?" He asks when we're up in the air and flying smoothly. "us... I'm quite scared actually..." 

"Oh jeez..." He breathes, looking out the window. "Is this... something I have to he there for? 'cause I'd prefer to not get murdered." He says, his tone far from joking. "I'm afraid you're gonna have to... I would prefer if you didn't have to either... but you'll get dragged into it one way or another." I sigh, giving him a sympathetic smile. "K... what do we do if he's there when we land?" He asks, looking at me with a funny look. "Don't worry about it... let me do that." 

"You worry too much, let me do it for once." He teases, getting up and kissing my head before walking off. "Never gonna happen." I giggle.

After a long plane ride we make it back around 5am. We're sitting at the pick-up spot. Impa and Purah waiting for their mom, Paya waiting for hers and Link waiting with me for my father. "Are you sure you don't want your parents to pick you up?" I ask him. "It's better to just get the 'I'm dating your daughter' talk over with. I can have someone come get me at your place." He smiles. "Alright." I sigh, laying my head on his shoulder as Impa's mom pulls up, Paya's mom right behind. "Bye Zel. See you later." Impa says, giving me a big hug along with Purah and Paya. "Drive safe" I say, walking to their car. "Hi, Zelda, how are you?" Mrs. Sheikah asks as Impa and Purah get into the car. "I'm great, thank you for letting Impa and Purah come to London with me. I'm sorry about coming home so early." I smile weakly. "Don't worry about it! I understand needing to get away from family. Are you going to be alright on your own?"
