I believe this was requested by this user (since I put all your names on a draft so I can remember) but I can't find the actual comment the request is from itself, so, um, I'm sorry, I don't remember if you wanted a specific story line or not-
Anyway, I hope you enjoy and sorry I haven't updated in a while.

[Your POV]
I cleared off the tables in my cottage, taking dishes into the kitchen to clean. It was a small cottage and it was just around closing time. My cottage housed a small bakery in the middle of the forest. There was a path going through it, so most of my customers were hungry travelers. Well, most of them. There was one customer in particular who showed up every day for months now. I heard a bell ding and knew exactly who it was. I walked out of the kitchen to find my best friend - and crush - Revali. "I'm waiting for the jelly bun." He said in a smug voice, poking a finger towards the rack of jelly donuts.
"I've told you many times before, Revali. They're jelly donuts." I corrected.
"Mmmm." He hummed suspiciously. "The word 'donuts' just doesn't make sense. It's a bun with jelly in it. So it's a jelly bun. You know how I know that?"
"I don't know, oh great champion! Tell me, while I slave away at your donuts." I said sarcastically, washing my hands and picking up the donut, placing it on a piece of paper and handing it to him.
"Because I know everything, my dear (Y/N)." He said, sliding me one blue rupee and two green ones. I took them and tossed them in my bag where I kept my rupees. "I am champion, but I honestly should've been given that Master Sword." He stuffed the donut in his beak, making me giggle. "What's so funny?"
"You." I said. "You're so goofy in how you eat." I leaned my chin against my hand, staring at him. He looked away, wiping his face, getting white powder on his feathery fingers.
"'Goofy' is a funny word." He said. "And it's not a donut. Jelly bun."
"'Goofy' is another word for 'funny'." I said, smiling at him. He huffed and continued to scarf down his donut. I thought about what Revali said, about how he thought he should've been given the Master Sword instead of Link. "Well, I think you're in a great position right now, Revali."
"Huh?" He mumbled, white powder flying from his mouth.
"With being a champion and all. I mean, it's not like you despise being one." I said. He furrowed his brow and squinted his eyes. "You've made some great friends. Like Urbosa, Daruk, and Mipha. You guys really do seem to get along..." I stared into nothing for a second. To be honest, the forest was lonely. Revali was my only friend. I mean, the forest creatures were good company, but Revali...without him...I would have no one. "You seem to have a lot of fun when they're around..."
"...You are ridiculous." Revali said, in a not-very-nice tone. It wasn't even in his snarky or smug tone. But he sounded...genuinely offended. "You have no idea how long I've been training to become the knight of the princess!" My eyes widened and I stood up straight. Revali ate the remainder of his donut, scowling at me.
"R-Revali, I didn't mean to upset you. I was just trying to be optimistic. I'm sorry. I understand that you've worked really hard-" I started, but he silenced me.
"No! You don't understand! You never will understand! You've never had to work hard for anything! You're attractive! You're beautiful! I bet men fawn over you from all over Hyrule! You've never had to work for anything because everything comes to you naturally!" Revali yelled. I blushed. This probably wasn't the most appropriate time to, but I don't control it!
"...Revali..." I whispered, tearing up. Revali's breath went from heavy and fast to slow and steady. He looked me up and down. I was shaking like a leaf. He blinked, acknowledging what he said. His cheeks went so bright I could see his blush through his feathers.
"I...wasn't thinking." He said. "I didn't mean any of that. I'm sorry. I...I...I need to go." He wiped his face with his wing and made for the door.
"Revali, wait!" I cried, grabbing his tail feathers. He stopped and looked back at me.
"Look, you know me. I don't have outbursts like that." He said. "I-I'm too perfect for outbursts!" He joked, attempting to lighten the mood. But he only made it more awkward, at least for him. "Let's just...forget everything I said."
"But, Revali...did you mean what you said...?" I asked.
"About...what?" He asked. "I didn't say anything! And if I did, I forgot!" He attempted to leave again, but I blocked his way. "Damn, controlling much?"
"Revali, please." I begged. "Did you mean what you said? About...me?"
"What did I say? I didn't say anything."
"You know what you said. About me being...attractive. And how men would fawn over me-"
"Yeah, we're done here." He said with more of a stern tone. I raised an eyebrow and didn't move.
"Is...that it?" I asked.
"Hmm?"
"Are you...jealous?"
"What? No, why would I be jealous?"
"You're jealous!"
"Who would I even be jealous of and for what reason!?"
"You're jealous or something!"
"I'M NOT JEALOUS!" Revali yelled, tearing up. My eyes widened. "I'm...not jealous." A tear slid down his face, dampening his feathers. He quickly wiped his eyes.
"Then what's wrong?" I asked, placing a hand on his shoulder. He didn't respond. Instead, he avoided eye contact with me. "Revali..." I placed my hand on his beak, forcing him to look at me. "Please..."
"I..." He started. "I'm not leaving until I tell you, am I?" I nodded. He sighed and sat down in a nearby chair. I sat next to him. "I'm not jealous. I guess I just...don't feel good enough...for you."
"Why in Hyrule would you think that, Revali!?" I cried, startling him slightly. "You're amazing! I see no reason why I wouldn't wanna...um..." I blushed and looked down at my hands.
"But you're the amazing one!" Revali said, looking into my eyes. "You're perfect, (Y/N). You've...never had to work hard for anything. Because you're just so beautiful and talented. Your baking is impeccable, and you're the most gorgeous person I've ever seen..." He held my hands in his wings. "I...don't wanna ruin our friendship with something more...serious. What we have going is good. It's great. And I...don't want it to end. I want it to become even more amazing. If...that's what you want as well."
"Wait, Revali, are you...?" I trailed off, coming to the realization. He nodded.
"(Y/N), do you...maybe...wanna go out sometime?" He asked. "As, um...as a couple?"
"A...couple..." I repeated.
"Yes. If you would...want that." Revali held his breath, waiting for my answer.
"...Yes." I said. "Yes, Revali! I love you..."
"You love me?"
"Yes, Revali."
"I feel honoured." He got off his chair and got down on one knee, kissing my hand. He helped me up. "Also, um, all this emotional stuff...stays between the two of us." I giggled and nodded. He let out a breath of relief. I jumped up and wrapped my arms around him, nuzzling my cheek into his neck. I smiled and held me tightly.
This was quite the eventful day.
