“hah… hah… By Hylia… Pipit…”

Pipit laughed, looking at Link, which was bent over from exhaustion. He was short on breath, and could barely talk at all.

“What is it, Link? Having trouble following up?”

Link looked up at his boyfriend, frowning, then let his head fall back down. Looking at the ground intently, he tried once again to gather his breath.

Pipit moved closer, a wide smile on his lips. He moved beside him and put his right hand on the green-clad soldier’s shoulder, leaning down slightly. He could feel the young man breathing in and out quickly and harshly, which only amused him more.

“Should we stop?” he asked, his amused voice laced with a layer of genuine concern. “You haven’t practicing much lately at all, have you?”

Link simply shook his head, still gathering his breath, even though he was already doing way better. If Pipit would not have been as thoroughly attentive as he was, he would have missed the reddening of the tips of Link’s ears. But he really was this attentive, and could not help laughing a little when he saw it.

“Oh, what? Was I the problem?”

At this, the young man blush only deepened, and he straightened his shoulders, looked away, while mumbling a half-convinced ‘no…’. Curious of the edge of truth hidden in these words, the brown-haired Hylian moved closer to his boyfriend, gently grabbing Link’s shoulders from behind and turning him around. He repressed a tender smile at seeing the other so flustered, and simply asked:

“What is it, then?”

Link eyes drifted to his left as he bit his lip, obviously unwilling to tell. Pipit shifted his stance until he could once again lock eyes with the other man, and stared right into their blue shine. He got lost in them for a second, before Link closed them, shaking his head once more.

“I can’t tell you…” he mumbled, barely audible, even to Pipit’s all open ears. “I promised…”

That got the knight’s attention, as he knew that the only person that even made Link promise things was Zelda. Curious, he teased:

“Zelda made you promise to keep a secret? And what might that be, hm?”

At the mention of Zelda, Link’s eyes opened once again, this time widened in surprise.

“How did you  – ” he started, before he cut himself off by putting his hands on his mouth.

Pipit could not repress an amused smirk at the gesture, while he barely contained a laugh that he knew could have been taken wrong. Link frowned then, at himself or Pipit, the latter was not sure, and let his hands drop to his sides.

“How did you know it was Zelda?”

Pipit shrugged.

“I only guessed, to be sincere,” he admitted with a laugh in his voice. “The only person that makes you vow and promise is Zelda, or her father.”

He gripped Link’s shoulder more firmly, making him move closer. For just a second, the blond Hylian looked about ready to tumble forward, but with the help of Pipit’s slightly-more-assured hands, he regained his footing. The green-clad knight stared at his boyfriend’s eyes for a second, before letting his gaze drift down to Pipit’s lips as he finished:

“But you don’t get this flustered when it’s her father asking you to keep a secret…”

For half a second, the remark seemed to throw Link off balance, making him unsure of what to say or do. But then, Pipit let a smirk spread on his lips, before he let his hands move to the other’s neck and nape as he pressed a tender kiss to Link’s lips. The blond man was quick to accept the kiss, and he retaliated with another kiss right as Pipit was ending the first one. His hands followed the flow, one of them moving up before settling in brown hair, as the second stopped on the side of Pipit’s middle, nudging him closer. Pipit was more than happy to comply, moving forward until their chests touched, his hands cupping Link’s face.

After a moment, Link interrupted their kiss, leaning his forehead against his boyfriend’s, once again slightly breathy.

“ I – ” he tried, before interrupting himself and nipping at his lip.

Pipit chuckled and gave his boyfriend’s nose a light peck.

“Don’t worry about it. I don’t want to know.”

The remark made Link smile brightly and hug Pipit close and tender.

“Thank you…” he whispered, before letting go. “I’d much rather keep the surprise a surprise,” he laughed. “But don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll love it.”

This made Pipit smile in turn.

“I’m sure I will.”

Soooooo this happened. I was watching PBG’s video about why him and Yungtown love Skyward Sword, and well it made me think about how much I miss writing SS stories… hah… that story was amazing to write…

I just hope it's as good as I think it is :iconsweatdropplz:
