Zelda's body shot up and she gasped for air as her senses tried to catch up with what had happened. Her throat was dry and her head was pounding, making her swallow in the hope of getting rid of the disgusting feeling but she was disappointed by her itchy throat. Her eyes immediately wandered to the still unconscious brunette as soon as her brain had caught up with what was going on and she was about to check for her pulse, afraid that the immortal was hurt, when she realized that she didn't need to.

Along with her own heartbeat, she felt another steady one beating in sync with hers. Relief immediately washed over her and she reached out to take Mary's hand into her own. Her thumb brushed softly across the back of the brunette's hand and Zelda smiled lightly.

She felt so... different. She could practically hear Mary's blood flowing through her veins and it was the most beautiful thing Zelda had ever experienced. The soft feeling of her skin against Mary's was soothing her dry throat and her hand wandered to it in surprise, the itchiness being gone completely.

Her eyes widened as she realized that their contact had healed her throat and she crawled over to Mary and felt the chilly breeze brush against her barely covered body, making her shiver. The windows were opened slightly and the upcoming night was chilly and cooler than the weather report had predicted. With a flick of her wrist the windows flung shut and she watched Mary shiver underneath her.

"I better get you upstairs, love."

She had never used any pet names and the fact that she did blew her mind. She wasn't the one for loving pet names, never had been and never would be, so the sudden change of heart surprised her beyond words. Her heart felt ten pounds lighter but her mind didn't agree with the sudden changes. She was thankful that Mary wasn't awake, so there was no way she could use it against the ginger. They had never been as affectionate as average couples but they weren't just average.

Average people don't have to go through what they went through to realize that they love each other.

Zelda heaved Mary's heavy body into the air and muttered under her breath "You really should have eaten less cake."

Oh how Mary would roll her eyes at the comment about her obvious weight gain and binge eating would have been too cute. Zelda chuckled at the thought of Mary's expression and she shook her head, smiling. Mary had sought comfort in food when the past few weeks had been taking their toll on the dark haired beauty, leaving her even more frustrated and with a few pounds extra.

Zelda found it adorable how Mary complained about her weight gain but continued eating for three. Not that the ginger complained about the few extra pounds. They filled her clothes nicely and were quite a sight to behold.

Zelda could have easily used her magic to carry Mary up the stairs but she needed the comfort it brought to be so close to Mary. She looked at the pale face of the sleeping woman and felt a warmth spread through her body that she had never experienced before.

She had become used to feeling better with Mary around but she had never experienced anything as strong as this and it overwhelmed her, being used to an "emotionless" mindset.

She gently lowered the brunette onto the bed and laid down next to her, wrapping her arm around her torso. It felt so familiar and yet so strange. She had been in this position a few times before but something felt different.

She felt a comforting warm spread through her body and images of their very first encounter were projected into her mind, reminding her of how their relationship had started. It didn't take Zelda very long to figure out that it was the dream Mary's was currently dreaming and she kissed the brunette's shoulder lovingly.

Even in her dreams, the ginger seemed to haunt the immortal.

Zelda watched her sleep for a while until she just couldn't help herself and brushed her hand across Mary's cheek, feeling her stir under the sudden interruption. Mary had never been a light sleeper, so Zelda expected her to just dose off again.

Mary awoke to feeling something brush against her cheek and she instantly batted it away, hearing a huff coming from next to her. She opened one eye to look at Zelda, trying to look super annoyed even though she truly wasn't.

"Don't look at me like that. I know that you're doing it to tease me."

Mary opened both of her eyes and found herself located in their bed. She looked at Zelda and raised an eyebrow. How long had she been asleep?

"You've been asleep for half an hour..."

"How did you know I was going to ask this?"

"Because I heard your thoughts..."

Zelda smirked at the brunette and Mary was suddenly reminded of what they had done before she had fallen unconscious and a huge smile spread across her face. The beating of Zelda's heart moved into the front of her mind and she could hear it at a steady beat, matching her own.

They intertwined their fingers and Mary leaned into the touch.

"The spell was harder on you... I was out for two minutes at most."

"I feel so..."

"Different?"

"Yes."

Zelda smiled at the brunette and pressed her lips against Mary's soft ones, leaning inti the touch. She needed it as much as she needed air to breathe. The kiss was electrifying both of them. The statics around them made their hair stick out into all kinds of directions and neither of them seemed to be able to break the kiss.

But when Mary did, both of them missed the contact almost immediately and wished for their closeness to never end.

Oh what Zelda would give to spend the rest of her life in bed with Mary.

"Be careful or I might think you're going soft."

"Me? Soft? Pff. Never! Who is dreaming about whom?"

"I did not dream about you!"

"Yeah, you sure did!"

"Shut up."
