Chapter Seven: Inner Feelings LINK’S POV: My head was pounding and my chest felt like fire. "Is he awake? His vitals are going insane!" Aryll's voice echoed. I tried to scream but I couldn't. Then someone grabbed my hand. "Calm down, you're okay, you're okay," Zelda's voice echoed. I calmed down as she gently squeezed my hand. "Z-zelda," I croaked out, slowly opening my eyes. I saw her emerald green eyes and she smiled at me. "H-hey, you're gonna be okay," she whispered, tears escaping her eyes. "Hey, bro, how you feeling?" Aryll whispered, smiling at me. "E-everything hurts," I replied. Aryll chuckled a bit, "I bet." "So, how long until he can be discharged?" Zelda asked, moving her finger slowly across my hand. "We aren't sure, we'll need to do more test to make sure the surgery went well," the doctor replied. Zelda nodded and I realized that she was wearing my police jacket. I smiled. "So can he keep working in the police department?" Aryll asked, glancing at the doctor. The doctor inhaled quickly and slowly nodded. "He'll have to be off-work for about three months but he should be okay working," he replied. I chuckled, "yes, still get to work with you Z." Zelda looked at me and whispered, "Yeah, just don't get hurt again, that was too scary." I looked deep into her eyes, she wasn't lying or faking. "You were crying, real crying," I whispered. She looked away and replied, "What'd you think I would do! You're my future husband." My breath caught as she spoke. 'I guess we can't stop the pretend, we'd have to keep it up,' I thought, smiling softly at Zelda's words. ZELDA'S POV: "Agent! Agent! Zelda!" Captain's voice rang out, breaking me out of a daydream. "H-huh? Yes sir?" I asked, looking at him. "Gosh, were you daydreaming?" he muttered. I got red and slowly nodded, "S-sorry sir." He sighed, "It's fine, can you do a mission today?" I opened my mouth to speak and my phone pinged. It was Link. Link: ᴊᴜsᴛ ɢᴏᴛ ᴅɪsᴄʜᴀʀɢᴇᴅ ғʀᴏᴍ ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴏsᴘɪᴛᴀʟ Zelda: ʏᴀʏ!!

I got red and stuttered, "W-what I wasn't smiling! I'm just glad Link doesn't have any more heath problems and is cleared to go home!" Captain laughed and whispered, "Alright, you're free to go home know if you wanna see your boyfriend." "W-what?! Captain I've got a job to do! We still need to find Ganon!" I stuttered. Captain laughed, "Go have some time with your family. You've been working hard lately. Don't argue, go." I frowned and stood up. "Fine," I mumbled, grabbing my stuff and leaving.
