A/N: Okay guys here's your bonus for being such fabulous readers and reviewing for this story. Below I have included two chapters from a story I'm working on that I currently call 'His Choice'. Now before you read them I want you to bear in mind a few things. First this is still a work in progress and I have not edited yet so there are mistakes and things may change from when I put this up to whenever I actually get this finished. Second I know at a few points I switched from first person writing to third person writing, mainly due to the fact I was working on 'Three Weeks' at the same time, and since both have many of the same characters well…let's just say I have my editing work cut out for me. Third I put in a few line breaks to make it easier reading for you guys but they're probably not where they ought to be. Anybody who read 'Zelda's Link' originally knows I forget about the Enter key quite often so I usually have to break it up in editing.

Alright last tidbit then you can get to reading. The chapters I chose for this are the first chapter, one that would probably be around the fourth chapter, and a small excerpt from around the seventh or so (not guaranteeing chapter numbers here I'm guessing at it). The first just sets us up and gets the ball rolling while the second and the excerpt hint at the some of the plot to this story. So that's about it let me know what you think of these little additions and I'll see all of you when my next story is finished. I don't know which it will be since I work on several at a time depending on where my train of thought has landed.

For Her

Just to see her smile he would do anything she wanted him to. He lived for her and if she would ask he would die for her. For her he had traveled to lands unknown, slayed anything that threatened to do her harm, and endured countless hardships and physical pain. It did not matter that she said she had used him for that had been the Goddess Hylia not his beloved, his own personal goddess.

Even though the Goddess and his best friend were one in the same, he thought but wasn't quite sure how that worked, he would've let her use him every second of every day for the rest of their lives if that's what made her happy. She was his closest friend and he believed he was hers. They had both been together since the age of five and seen each other through the best and the worst times in their lives. It was for her that he had travelled to the Surface that had previously only existed in fairy tales and myths. It was for her that he battled fierce enemies each more terrifying and deadly than the one before becoming stronger with each new foe. It was for her that he had almost given his life on many occasions and for her that he would not allow his life to slip away, for she needed him.

It was for her that he had, though this was the hardest task, sought out and sang with a flying whale and three dragons, one being incredibly pompous and annoying, demanding proof that he was the Chosen Hero repeatedly! He was fairly sure that the dragon liked to dangle the prize just out of reach and enjoyed, for some sick twisted reason that only she could understand, making one jump through pointless hoops to get it. Similar to dangling a piece of fish in front of a Remlit demanding it prove it's a Remlit before it received the morsel, it was just so wrong. Really it wasn't like that many Heroes would have come knocking on her door. Especially since humans hadn't been seen on the Surface in how long?! Then one shows up with one of Her Scales around their necks, nor could just anyone wield the blade on his back, and not to mention he had completed those ever loving trials that there were not enough foul adjectives available in the Sky vocabulary to describe. But he should focus on what he was doing now because it was for her that he was facing his toughest challenge to date. This was the reason for all the evil that had plagued the land and the reason that she, his dearest companion and friend, had sealed herself away for a millennia. The Demon King himself Demise.

More than Friends?

The magnificence of the Ancient Cistern had been beyond words. Zelda had thanked Link repeatedly for showing it to her and though they hadn't come up with any ideas for the Triforce it was more than worth the trip. Link had talked her into swimming in the warm waters and had shown off a bit more with the Water Dragon's Scale, to Zelda's chagrin. She had half-heartedly rebuked him for showing off but really she couldn't even pretend to be stern, it was too nice to see him act so childish after how serious he had been lately. The only odd thing was that Link made her swear on Hylia's or rather my own life to never go into the basement or beyond the first room. When she had asked him why, he replied vaguely, "The purest light hides the vilest darkness." She wasn't sure what he meant, even with the knowledge of a Goddess, but his somber expression and the shudder that seemed to run down the entire length of his spine was enough to tell her she'd be better off not knowing. They were on their way back to the Sealed Temple to check on the Triforce one more time before heading home since it was getting late.

Zelda wasn't sure if it was Link or her that always managed to attract trouble, though, it was quite possibly both of them, because as they walked into the small meadow just outside the back entrance of the temple they were rapidly surrounded by several bokoblins and a moblin. Zelda was terrified since she had no way to defend herself and I she'd never had a whole lot of dealings with the creatures. On her journey she had employed a few different tactics for getting around by either sneaking around the creatures, running away since they were slower, or using the harp to transport her ahead by use of light magic though this one took more out of her. Except for the one time she had miscalculated near the earth temple, those tactics had worked every time. Unfortunately the creatures had already spotted us, Zelda didn't have the harp with her now so she wasn't able to summon her magic without it, and she was tired from the day of swimming and trekking so she doubted she could out run them. Just as Zelda began to think that they were dead Link whispered in her ear, "Stay here," and for a moment she forget their dire situation as his warm breath tickled her ear. The moment was gone quickly though as Link stepped forward and drew his blade from his back. Zelda wanted to scream at him to come back, that there are too many to fight alone, she didn't want to see him hurt. Her voice was caught in her throat however, and she could do nothing but stand there dumbly as her best friend engaged these demons in battle. Zelda was astonished with how quickly the fight was over, though, and for many long moments she stood there unmoving dumbstruck by what she had just seen.

Before today she had never gotten to witness Link in a real fight; she'd only seen him spare in the training hall a few times with practice dummies and Commander Eagus. It was both the most sensual and most horrifying thing she had ever seen. For one watching her long time best friend being surrounded by the vile creatures each armed and then watching as said creatures fell at his blade their blood gushing from their fatal wounds was completely stomach churning. She'd seen the images of war through Hylia's or rather her ancient memories but in a way it still seemed like that was someone else seeing those moments not Zelda. Hylia or Zelda, ugh well both of them, loved her people but as a Goddess she was incapable of human emotion so the sight of so many fallen had not affected her like it would a human. When Zelda/Hylia had regained her memories the lack of emotion attached with the memories made it easier to witness so they were just pictures nothing more. It didn't seem like real people in those images, even if one looked very much like a certain blonde Hero she knew a little too well. Now seeing actual carnage with someone Zelda cared about in the midst of the fight, it began to sink in how very real this had all been for Link. Each step he too for the quest she set into motion was a step towards what could have been his death. She had witnessed his scars and injuries after his final battle but at the time she had been too worried to give more thought to it.

But even though the site before here was ghastly she couldn't help but see the beauty in it. The way Link moved was like the most perfectly choreographed dance but though lacking in tempo. His lithe body moved in and out of the many beasts ducking and weaving always just missing connecting with the sharp rusted edge of a weapon. Only once did this strange dance seem to falter. Link had put his sword through one Bokobiln and turned for another, but the dying Bokobiln used the last of its strength to put its cleaver into Link's arm. Link barely flinched and didn't slow just spun around, with a speed that could make lightning envious, and removed the offending appendage from the monster.

Once they were all dispatched Link knelt down in the blood soaked grass catching his breath and cleaning his sword in the green carpeting of the woods. He seemed to be shaking and kept clenching his hands. She started to approach him but before she could take two steps Link's tone of voice as well as his words stopped her cold. "Just stay there for a minute, please Zelda." His words, though few, carried an almost blood chilling edge in their tone and his voice was low and cracked at certain points. How had he even known she was approaching, with his back to her? Regardless of how Zelda stopped in her tracks looking for whatever danger he still sensed but she could discern nothing but Link. After a full five minutes he stood from his crouched position and walked over to her stopping just a bit farther away then was normal. He had blood on his face and tunic but that wasn't the most disturbing part. His eyes were unnerving, cold, and hard like stones, yet unlike gems there seemed to be no shimmer to them almost lifeless. Some part of her wanted to run from that look; for it was the look of a predator a beast. Then the reality of what had just transpired hit her propelling her legs to run to him holding him as close as she could while trembling and bawling her eyes out; she didn't even notice she was getting blood all over her.

Link held her tightly making soft shushing sounds as he tried to bring her some comfort. Zelda wasn't sure why she was crying they were safe now but just being that close to what would have been her death, if not for Link, it was just too much to contain now. Zelda knew she was being silly and that Link's wound needed tended to but for the life of her she just couldn't pull herself together. As if the skies mirrored her actions the heavens released a sudden torrent on us disguising the tears and washing away the blood stains from the grass. Even after Link told her they needed to get out of the rain Zelda still found herself incapable of moving even a Kikwi step; thereby necessitating Link to pick her up and carry her to the temple. Zelda wasn't coherent enough to know how he managed to get them up that cliff and inside but managed it he did. He sat her near the tree of life to rest and regain her senses, while he built a small fire. Once the fire was going strong Link started pulling off his weapons and tunic laying them out to dry. He did however, go to a bowl left behind from one of his many trips that had water collected in it from the rain and used it to finish washing out the blood the rain hadn't. When he was finished he walked over to her handing her a blanket while saying, "Zelda you can use this to cover up but you need to get out of those wet clothes or you'll get sick."

Zelda was a bit stunned and embarrassed at the thought but then she saw the wisdom of his words and began changing while he obligingly turned his back. When the Goddess incarnate turned around he had a blanket around himself as well and was trying to bandage his arm. It took her a minute to realize she should be helping him, but by Nayru he was handsome and just thinking of the fluidity with which he could move had her mind wondering to all the wrong places. Zelda hung her clothes up on the branches of the tree and went over to help him tying the blanket around herself just under her arms as she went.

"Let me do that for you," she said while gently taking his arm. Carefully she began wrapping the bandages around the wound tying it tightly to stem the flow when she finished. Once done she looked up happy to see the warmth had finally returned to those endless blue eyes of his. When their eyes connected Zelda began to feel a knot building in her stomach so I quickly look down back towards his arm. "Thank you," is all I get but still his voice chases shivers of joy through my body. What is the matter with me? Why is my body behaving like this around Link of all people? We've known each other since we were five so he's more like a brother to me, right? I'm not sure why I am reacting this way and so I try to distract myself even though a part of me wants to explore this feeling. "Why didn't you let me approach you, after… after you um…? My voice trails off unable to find the words to finish my thoughts though part of the blame is I don't know how to broach this subject another is I just noticed how pretty his hair is plastered all over his head.

He's silent for so long I don't think he is going to answer but he does in a tight voice. "It is hard to stop once I start." I am baffled by his terse explanation and ask him to explain what he means. Sighing deeply he rubbed his eyes before looking up at me with a pained expression. "I hate killing anything including the Bokobilns even if it is necessary at times. However, once I engage in the battle my instincts take over and I am very liable to attack anything that moves. I almost killed a pair of Mogmas once when they popped up at me suddenly after a battle. I have been trying to ease that instinct but it is difficult since it is the reason I am alive now. Even though I'd finished them all I could still feel the adrenaline and the need to be on alert. I was afraid I would hurt you if you came to me before I had a handle on myself." I am a little bit mortified by his confession. My lazy best friend, who wouldn't even stand up for himself, no matter how verbally and physically abusive people were towards him. My friend who had always been there to comfort me and help anyone, had to make sure he wouldn't hurt me?! I just couldn't process that. I knew what he was capable of I'd just witnessed it but it was just so wrong and I felt a fresh wave of guilt for what I'd turned him into. "I… I…I'm sorry Zelda, I sho-shouldn't hav-e said anything. You probably think I'm a-a monster."

He stammered that out with what sounded like tears in his voice and started to pull away. I don't know what possessed me but instead of letting go I stretched up and kissed him. It was a soft kiss and I meant it to be brief but suddenly I felt a jolt run through me, and I more or less threw myself at him holding him to me tightly. Regrettably Link was now a lot stronger than I was and he managed to pry me off of him. "Zelda?" Link queried me and in just that one word I could hear every question it raised. I put a finger to his lips, though it really wasn't necessary, before I began. "Link you are not a monster in any form of the word. You fought a war almost single handedly. You risked everything and gave up so much to save not only me but you also saved every creature on the Surface and in the Sky, not to mention the lands of both. Then there's the fact that while you were on this epic journey you helped at least half the population of Skyloft, if the rumors are true. I am also positive there are great deeds you've done that I haven't heard of and likely won't unless you suddenly become more verbose. You are not a monster. You are my brave, selfless; chivalrous Hero. There was no way you could have come back without a few scars both mental and physical." As I say this I trace along one of the scars marring his chest. "Like your physical wounds the mental ones will heal they just may take a bit longer." At this point I find myself kissing his scars. "You know Link, I never got to say thank you for all that you did for me; not only on your quest but earlier today too. You showed me something exquisite and you saved my life."

I now find my hands running up and down his back that like his chest has numerous scars that I can feel beneath my exploring fingertips. But before I can explore more, Link grabs my hands in his and secures them away from their wanderings. "Zelda, stop I don't need any type of thank you. Just getting to see your smile was more than thanks enough. I swear I just wanted you to be safe you were all I thought about. As selfish as it makes me I didn't think about anyone else until it was all over. And I promise you I'd do it all again in every lifetime for eternity just for you, because well, because iloveyouzelda." I didn't catch that last part he said it so quickly and quietly. "What was that last part?" I know what it sounded like but I'm not sure. Link took a deep breath and closed his eyes like he is steeling his nerve before answering me. "I love you, Zelda. I don't know if you feel the same way but I've wanted to tell you but I just couldn't seem to find the right moment." I stood there for a second shocked by this revelation and by the fact Link admitted it. Link was the undefeated champion when it came to bottling up his feelings and keeping what he was thinking or feeling quiet. You only saw what he wanted you to, which was usually a big goofy smile so this, this was new. I didn't know what to say or do so I did the first thing that came into my brain, I really don't recommend doing that by the way, I started kissing Link again only more passionately. It was like some rabid animal had taken control of me yet I couldn't find a part of me that disagreed with its actions. I actually managed to knock Link down with my forceful advances. "Zelda?!"

He somehow got out while I was occupying his sweet lips. "Please Link, I want this I want you. Please, for me?" I was really playing dirty here since I knew he'd never say no to me. My hands started roaming across his very toned body again, well at least something good came of the quest I sent him on. "Zelda," Link moaned my name and I could hear it in his voice, he was close to giving in. "Just…just promise me this isn't a reaction to what happened earlier or some way to 'thank' me for what I did. You deserve your first time to be because you really love that person and it is something you really want. I couldn't live with myself if you regretted this come morning." My answer was to remove the blankets from around both of us causing Link to yelp and blush. Link was a complete gentleman that night, he asked me twice more if I was sure this is what I wanted and both times I assured him without words. I wish I knew what had come over me that night but I really don't know and the only explanation I have would be that it was a combination of the shock of the ambush, my raging teenage hormones, and the fact Link was undeniably the most handsome man I'd ever seen. I didn't come back to my senses until the first rays of light were poking through the trees and as my senses came back they brought shame and guilt along for the ride.

The rain had stopped sometime in the night and our small fire had burnt itself out so it was a bit cold in the temple. I couldn't remember why I was so cold or why I had slept in the temple in the first place. As I stood up I suddenly became aware of just how very naked I am?! As I hurried to retrieve my clothes I noticed I was a bit sore and then I looked down at my naked body and saw the small amount of blood that is inevitable and last night came flooding back to me. The woods, Faron, the temple, the fight, Link, and then we had…they did… What was I thinking?! I'd just ruined my friendship with Link because I couldn't control myself! I couldn't believe I'd acted like such a… such a… Well I didn't have an adjective bad enough for what I'd done. Yes I know it takes two to tango and all that but I had pressed for it and now I was doing the one thing Link had practically begged me not to, I was regretting our night together. Link had asked me repeatedly and I know he would have stopped in a second if I'd said to and I also know he'd do anything I ask.

Stupid idiot why couldn't you control your own hormones you are the Goddess reborn for Hylia's sake. I turned toward Link and saw him still asleep thankfully; at least he wasn't seeing my breakdown right about now. I had to get dressed and think this through. How was I going to tell him I'd used him, again! He'd confessed his love for me, but in truth I thought of him as just a good friend maybe a brother but never as a lover. I was cursing myself left and right. Link had done everything for me; all our lives I need only ask and he'd go to the edge of the Sky for me. Then the one time he'd asked something of me not even something big and I couldn't do it for him. Why couldn't I have just kept my legs crossed? I had to tell him but I had to think of how to do that without incinerating whatever will be left of our friendship after this. I had just finished dressing when I heard a noise. Praying it wasn't what I thought it was I peeked from behind the tree and of course luck would not be on my side. Link was up and I had no time to think of the right words. This was going to be painful for both of us. Link instantly started looking for me when he noticed I was no longer asleep by him. Sighing and wishing to put this off for as long as possible I called out to him, "Don't worry, Link. I'm just getting dressed. You…you should do the same." My voice was shaking as I continued hiding behind the tree for as long as I felt I could get away with pretending to wait for him. Finally I came out and saw him sitting on the ground packing away anything he had gotten out during our unexpected stay. "Ze-Zelda, I-I-I just wanted to sa…" Link started before I cut him off.

"I'm sorry Link. I'm sorry but I don't know what came over me last night and why I wanted to do that with you. Maybe it was the adrenaline rush from the fight or something and I know you asked me not to if it was but I didn't know it was and… I'm just so sorry it was the worst mistake I've ever made. Do you think we can just forget the whole thing happened and go back like we were before? I mean I know you said you loved me but the love I feel for you is that of a friend or a brother. But Link I don't want to lose our friendship and I don't want to lie either. So please, can we just forget it happened?" I was almost pleading with him by the end as I scanned his face for any clues as to what he was feeling. However, Link's face was that perfect mask again, damn it now I know he'll hide whatever he is really feeling. For a moment when I had been talking I had thought I saw some kind of emotion flicker across his face, but it was gone before I could identify it. We were just standing there neither of us saying a word; finally unable to take the silence I turned around so I didn't have to face him. I could feel the tears prickling in the corners of my eyes, Link would hate me now and our friendship was as good as destroyed; I was now facing the room where the Master Sword slept. My tears were just about to fall when I felt a hand on my shoulder and heard Link speak in a low husky voice almost as if he too were holding back tears. "Zelda, there is nothing you could ever say or do that would stop me from being your friend. I made you a promise when we were seven to be forever friends and I've never broken a promise. I would rather have you in my life as a friend than to not have you at all. So if you want to be just friends then that is what we'll be." I smiled at his sweet words and the reminder of our promise. It was right after the first time we'd met Groose, which, hadn't gone well and we'd made a pinky promise to each other that day. I feel a strange dampness on my cheeks and the tears I didn't know were falling from my eyes race tracks down my face. At least now they are somewhat happy tears knowing I won't lose my best friend. I close my eyes and wipe away the tears and as I open them and see the Master Sword an idea strikes me. "Link, didn't you say that before the Triforce pieces were in a strange realm?"

"Yeah," he replies with a bit of question in his voice. "It was similar to the 'Silent Realms' only lacking the guardians." I can almost hear a slight shudder in his speech at the last word and I wonder what happened but then again now is not the time to ask. "That must have been a part of the 'Sacred Realm' and if we house the Triforce there with the Master Sword as protection it should be safe." I turn to face Link smiling broadly. "Not just anyone can pull that sword and we can always add more protection later. What do you think Link? Will that work to keep the Triforce safe?" Link smiles softly and nods his head. "I'll have to prepare to do it though and build up my energy since this will take a bit more than I'm used to using. I think we'll have to wait a week so I can properly prepare. Are you okay with waiting for just a bit longer?" Link nods again, apparently today is not going to be one of his loquacious days. "Alright then we can head back to Skyloft I have everything there I need to do this. Are you ready to head back, Link?" He surprises me by shaking his head no this time but then he actually gives me a verbal answer. "No Zelda, there are a few things I need to take care of down here. I'll come back up later." I'm a bit puzzled by this since he didn't mention anything earlier but then again we were a bit distracted. At that thought I feel my face heating up and I quickly agree and turn away before he can see my blush. To further cover up my embarrassment I ask him if he can bring back some of the fruit from the trees since Henya really likes cooking with it. He nods his head; I'm kind of amazed I know this even with my back turned but then again I know Link better than I know myself. I then head to the bird statue outside pulling out my own sail cloth I tell Link I'll see him later and then I'm rising up back to the clouds.

Excerpt

My Dearest Zelda,

I am so sorry you must find out this way since I would rather tell you face to face, but I don't believe I could find the words to do so if I tried. By now you will have found that I am gone and have taken our child with me. I never had any intention on signing the adoption paper work. I am sorry for what I have put you through and all the pain I have caused you, not only recently but over the years. I know it wasn't easy for you to be friends with someone like me. Though I know you must regret our friendship and everything that came with it, I do not now nor will I ever regret it. Being your friend meant more to me than anything else in this world and I would have done anything for you and the sake of our friendship. To me our friendship and you reminded me of everything I loved about our world, everything that was good in it. It was flying and soaring above the clouds and you were the sun shining on me brilliant and blinding, but warm and comforting at the same time and always there for me. I am going to try and address every question that may be plaguing your mind so I leave you with no questions and only those memories you choose to keep, if any.

Please know that the night we spent together was the best night of my life. I know you only wish to forget that night, but I cannot. For in truth I loved you then and I love you still, even as I am writing this goodbye letter. The only dark spot in that memory for me is in knowing that it was not what you wanted and for that I cannot apologize enough. You deserved your first time to be with someone truly worthwhile and special, not some Octorok like me. The other reason I could never look back on that night with any form of malice is that it has given me a beautiful child to know and love, and even though at the time I am writing this I have not met him/her I know that I already love that baby with all my heart. This is the reason I have chosen not to sign the adoption paper work, for I could never put my child through the pain I went through. I know all too well what it is like not to be wanted.

By this time I will have already asked you if you are sure you do not want to be in our child's life and if you're reading this then I guess we already know what your answer was. This pains me since you said you were not ready to be a mother. I believe you would be, and if you ever chose to be again, a great mother. Please know that I did not jump into this decision unprepared, since the moment I found out I was to be a father I have been readying for this day. You see the moment you told me you were pregnant I knew my life, plans, and ambitions on Skyloft were over. Though in truth I realized some years ago they would never truly be realized because of what I am. Though my old life may have ended on that day; my new life was soon to begin with our child and a new life with new chances on the Surface. I have found a suitable home for us mainly due to the Gorons who have helped me immensely in my preparations and coached me through my panic. I have also asked for the help and advice of many of the citizens in Skyloft in order to know what will be coming and to learn many different trades and techniques that I think I will need to know because once the baby is born I will not be able to return for help. I swear on my life that I will take good care of our child and raise him/her to be better than me and hopefully be as good, kind, and generous as you are. I promise I will do everything in my power to protect our child and provide him or her with a warm and loving home.

By now you're probably wondering why I didn't tell you any of this before, why I knew my old life was over, and why I had to leave. I don't really want to delve into this part but I promised your father I would give you a full explanation so I am going to give it. Which reminds me please thank him for me for the years of kindness he showed me. I know it was difficult for him to have someone like me around especially since you and I were close. Hopefully I will have the chance to do so on my own but I may not be able to, and even if I do I could never thank him and the others enough for taking me in and showing me a better life. When you told me you were pregnant I knew instantly I wanted to raise our child.

However, when you mentioned it all being a mistake and that you wanted to give our baby up for adoption so we might forget and go on with our lives I lost my voice and could not speak. I know you said we weren't ready to be parents and rather that is true or not I don't know. I did know that nothing would ever be the same and we would not be able to go back to how things were. The reason I knew this is because of an old contract I made with your father, Headmaster Gaepora, when he graciously allowed me to join the academy. It basically stated that as long as I brought no dishonor or shame upon the academy I would be allowed certain privileges. The privileges included free room and board, free education, free meals, and the chance to become a knight for Skyloft. This was all to be provided until I came of age.

If I succeeded in finishing school before I turned eighteen then I would become a knight and not have to pay. If I had not become a knight by that time then I would only be allowed to stay so long as I could pay my way and still maintain decorum. It took a few years before I realized I would never be allowed to become a Knight of Skyloft. I also realized that this was for the best since no one would want someone like me protecting them. Still I continued my education so that one day I might be able to find some work with the skills I had learned. After the Headmaster took you away to find out what was wrong I knew my time was limited so I went to the waterfall to think up a plan; by sunrise I knew what I had to do and just hoped I could succeed. When the Headmaster caught up to me as I came in that morning we discussed my punishment and it was the best I could hope for and also the reason I was not able to explain this in person.

I was to be banished from the island but I managed to convince the Headmaster with a slight trade in punishments to postpone my banishment until the day after our child was born. Another reason that I did not tell you of this earlier was that I did not wish to worry you since you had enough to deal with, so I asked that he not mention my punishments to you until afterwards. He agreed as long as I did provide an explanation and as long as I stayed clear of you and no longer was in your presence alone. I wanted to help you through the pregnancy I really did but if I broke any of the rules I would be banished immediately. This is why I have been avoiding you during the time you needed me most and I am truly sorry for the pain I have caused you Zelda.

Lastly I just wanted to say thank you Zelda. Thank you for being my friend as long as you did when it really would have been better for you if you had just ignored me as everyone else did. I have never done anything to deserve having such a wonderful friend as you. Even though I know you wish to forget everything that happened, please know I never will. I can understand why you would wish to and I hope you can forget if that is what will truly make you happy and bring out your smile that is brighter than a thousand suns. After you read this I expect you will destroy it as the last reminder of me and our child. That is okay for like I said you should be happy. I know you no longer wish to be my friend but as I told you in the Sealed Temple you will always be my forever friend and nothing will ever change that.

Your Forever Friend,

P.S I have left a gift for you if you should ever wish to remember our friendship. If that is not your wish and instead you choose to destroy my gift along with my letter I will understand.

They both finished reading the letter and just sat there too stunned to say anything. Ghirahim was the first to find his voice. "Why does he do that throughout the letter?" I looked at him questioningly before asking, "Do what?" "He is constantly self-defecating and talks of not having deserved your friendship and of being less than everyone else, but he is the Goddess's Chosen Hero so explain to me why would he act like he isn't worthy?"
