Zelda is a lonely junior at Hyrule High School, and she is constantly a victim of Ganondorf and his gang's bullying.
Link is a popular basketball player who everyone wants to be friends with. He didn't even know Zelda existed until they were in the...
Zelda sighed in frustration, throwing her homework down on her bed. It wasn't that she didn't understand the biology assignment, she just couldn't focus. Her houses' complete stillness and utter emptiness were driving her crazy.
It was 6:30 on a Tuesday night and she found herself, as she often did when at home, feeling lonely. After the night of the party, her dad had left for a business trip to Castle Town. He'd left so early in the morning that she hadn't even been able to tell him about Link asking her to prom.
At the thought of Link, Zelda fell back unto her bed, staring dreamy eyed at the ceiling. Her thoughts drifting, as they often did, to Link.
He was the most amazing person she'd ever met. She had felt so alone and unhappy, but now, with his bright smile and laugh a regular part of her day, Zelda had to admit she was the happiest she'd been in a long time. Link had stood up to Ganondorf for her, and whatever he'd done had worked. Ganondorf hadn't bothered her since that dreadful night after the basketball game. Maybe it was because Link ensured she was never alone at school anymore, making sure Ganondorf couldn't try anything.
Zelda closed her eyes, she truly was grateful for Link. Not only had he shown her kindness, but he had gotten to know her and given her the friendship she had desperately been craving. For so long she had wanted someone to talk to; someone to rely on; someone who cared about her; someone she could trust. She had found that in Link, and now they were going to go to prom together. Zelda couldn't be more excited, and couldn't help but to hope that maybe she and Link could be more than friends.
Bzzt. Bzzt.
She pulled out her phone, and, opening her eyes, saw a text message from Link. She tried to calm her racing heart as she replied.

Zelda bit her lip, thinking. If both of them were doing homework then why not do it together? Link had said she could come over whenever, but she'd never taken him up on that offer... yet.
Besides her big, dark, empty house was a distraction, but, then again, so was Link. Zelda ran her fingers through her hair trying not to overthink like she usually did. The truth was Link was a by far better distraction then her depressing house, so plucking up her courage she sent the text.
