Link blushed a little bit, "uhh, o... okay" he said, his voice breaking up, he gave her a hug as he laid down with her, his nervousness started to fade away. "I'm sorry about all the bad things I said to you Aderith... I really didn't mean them at all, and I won't use the Triforce on you again, promise." He gave her another hug.

Aderith sighed softly, nodding and closing her eyes, her face moved into his neck and stayed there. Her arms tightened around his neck, staying there, keeping him close the entire time. "Thank you for staying.." She whispered, her eyes opening and her body pulling away so that she could look at him. "I appreciate it very much.." For once she wanted him there.

He smiled gently, "you're welcome, Aderith" he hugged her once more, just happy that she wanted him around now and she was in his arms. He didn't want to do anything to upset her though, so he gently cuddled with her, he secretly hoped that she was starting to slowly like him .

Smiling just a little as well, Aderith closed her eyes, leaning back into his arms. "Here, take off your shoes.." After all, if he was sleeping in her bed, she wanted him clean. Sitting up, the covers spilled away from Ader's body and revealed a night gown of sorts, only a more feminine one. Not revealing though, just proving that she was in fact female.. as if Link didn't know that already..

Reaching toward his feet, she began wiggling off his boots, smiling at him slightly as she did.

"Oh! I'm sorry..." he had forgotten about his boots, so he laughed nervously as she removed them, "thank you" he said after she took them off. He took the boots from her and placed them onto the floor off to the side of her bed, he then took a closer look at Aderith, she looked quiet lovely in her nightgown. He blushed lightly and removed his hat, he scratched the back of his head nervously, he then tossed his hat to the floor, since it got in the way of him laying down.

She had the softest smile on her face.. This was her, probably at her best.. She began to lay back down in the bed, pulling Link with her. She smiled again, still never seeming to notice the small amount of pigment falling into his cheeks. Looking at his thickish clothes, pondering a little. "You can take some of them off," she said simply. "I don't mind." Looking at him sweetly, she replaced him with her blankets, snuggling into those.

"Oh... alright" he sat up in bed and removed his green tunic and chainmail, he had his lightly tanned, long sleeve undershirt and his same color pants on now, but he decided to change into his other outfit's pants instead. "Close your eyes" he said, getting up off the bed, he reached into his item bag and pulled out the freshly clean pants, and he quickly changed into them, he now had the black pants with some blue on the side of the pant legs on. "Much better, you can open them now" he said as he removed his gloves, he picked up his clothes and put them inside his item bag, then climbed back into bed with Aderith.

He continued to cuddle with her and smiled as he did it.

Biting her lip, smiling softly, she nodded, closing her eyes. After all, she could give him the privacy that he wanted. When he told her that she could open them, she did, and smiled.. again.. She seemed to be in a much better mood, and having Link wrap his arms around her made it even better... Snuggling into his chest, she closed her eyes. "So I have a question," she told him in her soft, now sweet and delicate tone.

"What would that be, Aderith?" He asked her, still snuggling with her gently and caressing her hair softly. He was truly curious and anxiously waited for her to ask her question, but he tried to not show it and just enjoyed holding her close to him.

She paused for a moment, the question obviously being an odd one.. well, more personal and embarrassing.. "How much of me did you actually see...?" She asked him, her cheeks turning a bright red color. "In the lake.." Instead of looking at him now, she was looking away, simply because she couldn't look him in the eyes for the answer.. She had a feeling he'd seen everything.

He was blushing just as much as her, "I only saw your face, I swear, my hat covered my vision underwater..." he was saying it with all honesty. He laughed nervously though, remembering the exact moment, it was quiet funny once you thought about it.

Glancing up to him, Aderith noticed the fluster now, and then looked back down. "I think that you saw more," she told him simply, her arms drawing her her body to cover herself as if she were naked again. Even though she was very fit and in shape, she was still self conscious about her body.. and the thought of him seeing it wasn't exactly a happy one. Taking in an uneasy breath, she looked to him still nervously now.

"No I didn't, I swear, I only saw your face when I quickly regained my vision... I wouldn't lie about such a thing." His face was bright red now, he swallowed, "besides, even if I did see more, you'd still be... beautiful, to me." He waited for her next move, worried that she might slap him or something.

Her mouth opened to speak, but nothing happened.. She simply looked at him with her brown, almost puppy-dog eyes now, closing her mouth gently before looking away from him. He certainly knew how to turn her red, she knew that much.. But she wasn't regretting laying with him in the least bit. The woman had given good advice.. Link wasn't all that horrible.. maybe.

He looked at her eyes, he smiled, but it went away a bit when she looked away, she was probably nervous he thought. He quickly reached out and hugged her, he laughed a little bit, "I'm actually enjoying this time we're spending together" he just wished he was alive though in the back of his mind. That way, he could stay on Earth without the fear of death creeping up on him at any time.

She sighed slightly, moving back into his arms more willingly than she thought she would be. "I'm enjoying it too," she admitted to him eyes open, looking between their bodies and on the bed. She had to wonder why things seemed to be moving along sweeter and smoother now.. Maybe being nice wasn't so horrible after all.. Pulling away, she looked at him with a slight smile, as if trying to figure him out.

He watched her look at him curiously, but, he smiled and did something you'd almost not expect, he kissed her. Just a little long kiss on the lips, nothing big, but he just wanted to, and did it without thinking twice about it.

Ader wasn't sure, but she was beginning to believe that she wanted his lips on her own. It showed when she closed her eyes and moved her bottom lip against his softly. For anyone who had seen the various fights and heard the words exchanged between the two, this would have truly been a astonishing sight.. Maybe for Aderith, it was just inevitable.

He was a bit surprised himself at what they were currently doing after everything that had happened, I guess love conquers all? He continued to kiss her gently, smiling as he did it, and he snuggled with her softly, hoping that nothing would interrupt their moment.

Making a small noise, Ader found herself wrapping her arms back around his shoulders, feeling a bit of a smile tugging as the corners of her lips as she kissed him still, obviously much more happy with the situation at hand.. She knew that there was something wrong with this picture.. not with the kissing, but with the way she felt.

He wrapped his arms around her sides, kissing her gently still and holding her close to him, "I love you, Aderith..." he whispered softly to her, he also wanted to say it and didn't think twice about it. Even if she didn't say it back, it wouldn't stop him from enjoying every minute of the moment they were currently sharing together.

Her cheeks flushed, and with the burying of her face in his chest, she inhaled the scent of him and closed her eyes. "I know.." She whispered simply. She wished that she could return those words, but it wouldn't feel right.. Ader couldn't possibly say something of that magnitude without at least being remotely sure about it.

He considered the fact she confirmed what he said was enough, so he hugged her even more and kissed the top of her head. He looked outside the window near her bed, enjoying the peacefulness the sky showed, some birds flew by, chirping happily, he sighed calmly. "Perhaps we should get you some dinner, I can hear your growling stomach all the way up here" he laughed a little bit.

"I'm not hungry," Aderith lied simply not bothering to move from the position she'd taken with Link. "If I were hungry I would have eaten." So much for being sweet.. it seemed as though maybe just a little of her bitterness was coming back to her so soon. That was never a good sign. "Let's just go to bed alright?"

He frowned a little bit, but at the same time, he smiled inside, happy knowing she was now comfortable enough to have him around. "Very well Aderith" he gave her a gentle kiss and cuddled with her, "good night" he waited for her to go to sleep before he actually would though, when she did, he passed out.
