My mind came back to the present and I gasped. "Dark!" I jumped on him and proceeded to leave kisses anywhere I could get to. Link was utterly confused and Dark even more so. I heard Link clear his throat. Guess I have to explain what just happened.
"Hero, I am sorry for how I treated you in the past. I played with your emotion when I should have known better. The things I felt for you were not my doing. When I was created, Zelda's emotions were forced onto me. When I awoke seven years prior to the events I was relieved. I had never loved you and most likely never will. The one you should seek affection from is Zelda." Realization came to me. "That's why she hates me! It all makes sense. I drove Link into madness and she was thoroughly mad at me at our wedding." Dark blushed and Link looked like he would blow his top.
"You got married. To whom?" He knew the answer. I hinted at Dark and Link confirmed what he suspected.
"Never mind. I already know." And with that, Link began to storm out. He turned to Dark and spoke, tears tugging at his voice.
"I hope you are happy together." He walked out the door, an almost silent "sorry" came to my ears.
"So we got married in our past lives." I stepped away from Dark, hearing the flirting in his voice and intended on running away to see if he would chase me down for the answer. He caught on before I could. He nibbled on my neck as I giggled and playfully tried to struggle out of his hold.
"Did we have children? A wonderful home? Perhaps a dog?" I nuzzled into him. I could bait him a little and I knew I would. I drew the Triforce on his chest over and over while I spoke.
"How about we forget about past lives and look forward to this life." He smiled down at me and I brought my lips up to his. He spoke into the kiss, his breath warmed me.
"That sounds good. Really good."
It has been a few years now. Dark and I were married right out of high school. The wedding was much like the one we had before. Zelda and Link were together now, and neither had a grudge against me. The rest of the years were filled with college.
I smiled down at my stomach, knowing knew life was forming. Today, I would tell Dark. I was hoping he would be as excited as I was. I heard the door click and knew Dark was home. Here goes nothing.
"Dark. Can you come here?" He walked into the kitchen where I was starting on supper. I laid the knife I was holding down and waited.
"Yeah. You need something." I crossed the room and my nerves vanished. He would welcome a child, I just knew it.
"Have you ever thought about having children?" The expression on his face was one of confusion and slight disinterest. I hoped it was more of a "just got off work" thing than a "I don't want kids" type of thing.
"I have." He went to the cabinet and got a glass, then walked to the fridge and poured himself a glass of tea.
"Do you want to be a father, Dark?" He sipped the tea and I could tell he was thinking.
"I wouldn't mind it. Why are you suddenly asking me about this?" He looked nervous and I couldn't help but laugh. I took his hand in my own and pressed it to my stomach, his eyes went wide.
"You're gonna be a daddy." I smiled as he brought his other hand up to my stomach and tears rolled down his cheeks.
"Oh, Sheik. T-that's wonderful." One of his hands remained on my stomach while the other came up to the back of my neck and pulled my mouth to his. I was so relieved that I cried. Here I was the freak, outcast, abomination, with the best life the Goddesses could give me. I felt whole being with the man that changed my life for the better.
