Last chapter~~

Zelda and Paya find out that they both have feelings for Link!! Thought this seems like conflict will arise, it only makes there friendship closer. But now, Zelda can stop thinking about what Link feels.

Zelda's P.O.V~
I woke up the next morning, and Paya wasn't there. I suppose I fell asleep.
I got up, and prepared for the day.

Afterwards, I head down the stairs outside. "Good morning, Impa."

"Good morning, Princess." Impa replies.

I open the doors, the sun is warm and bright, giving me a happy feeling, the air crisp, just how I like it.

I try to forget the whole "I love Link!" Situation from last night, I.... can't.... get involved in..... I can't let such things distract me.

Approaching the bottom steps, and spot Paya praying to the statues.
"Good morning Paya!" She looks up at me, surprised. She stands up,
"Oh, good morning to you, Princess."

"Please Paya, call me Zelda."

I have decided that Paya is a close friend, and I think it is appropriate for her to call me Zelda. Not that the Champions weren't my friends, I just could not let them call me Zelda because I did not want to make our relationship informal, I was their leader after all. Urbosa was a bit of an exception though...

Paya's P.O.V~

"Please Paya, call me Zelda." Honestly, I cannot believe it.

We are friends.

I would love to say I will, but she is a princess! I cannot address her like that!

"I- I am sorry Princess, I must d- decline." I say, stuttering once again.
"Paya! I insist!" She pleads, showing off her puppy dog eyes.

I give up, and sigh, "Alright."
"Z-Zelda." Saying that leaves a weird taste in my mouth, like it's not right.

She smiles, and seems genuinely happy.

"Anyhow, what would you like or breakfast?"

"You don't have to make me anything." I reply, I don't want to be rude.

"Oh please, what do you want?"
I think for a moment, "An omelette." I mumble, shyly.

She skips of to the cooking pot.
She is quite stubborn, but I suppose polar opposites make the best of friends. She says I can call her by name and she makes breakfast for me. She is so kind, my best friend. I really look up to her. I think that though we're friends she's like a role model to me. She is the type of person I want to be one day.

You would think that last night would have affected me, but it didn't. I knew that, even if I did love Link, he's out of my league. It's one sided. Its merely just a crush, besides, can I even call it love? And if he loved anyone, it would be her. He and Zelda were made for each other.

And even if he had feelings for me, how could I possibly be with him when Zelda feels the same way? We are best friends. I couldn't betray her like that.

I finish polishing the statues and walk over to the cooking pot, and I see Zelda and Link speaking to each other.

Butterflies. I can feel my face erupt in a hot pink, I turn around and quickly hide it. I take a deep breath and walk over there.

"Here you are." Zelda hands Link an omelette, and he scarves it down.
"Paya." She hands me mine and I take a seat on the picnic table, I eat it more civilized like, I am no savage.
Not saying Link is! He just ate it a bit... ummm... never mind.

Zelda takes a seat in front of me, and Link standing guard at the steps.

"So, considering we slept in the same bed, d-did you sleep ok?"

Now that I think about it, I should have slept on the floor, how could I let Zelda sleep on a cramped bed?

"Just fine. And I found out that Link didn't sleep at all. He said he was guarding the entrance all night." She says, in a sad, worried, and mad tone. I don't know how that works.

I smile, a little giddy, doesn't that sound so romantic?

"That's sweet, isn't it?"

"How so?" She asks, confused.

"Zelda, he stayed up all night for you." Her nonchalant face, exploded into a pink, surprised one.

She coughs, and says,
"He was just doing his job. Don't take it the wrong way." She says, trying to forget about it. I'm not buying it. Their has to be something there. A spark.

After finishing our breakfast, Zelda finally headed off to talk to Impa. I didn't want to intrude, so I stayed outside when Link and Zelda went in.

Hey guys, just wanted to say that if you haven't subscribed to PewDiePie, you should. Come, and join the 9 year old army.

Edit:: cough cough... It's 19 now... but that's what I said, 19. You don't see the 1? Oh must be a glitch or something...
