you smiled to yourself as you touched your lips lightly, the sweetness of the tea still lingering and the feeling of link's own on yours.

you were currently wiping the dining tables in the sanctum with all of the other maids, since zelda didn't come to you for any specific tasks. you were currently cleaning one of the banquet tables when someone tapped you on the shoulder.

"judo! you scared me!"

judo laughed and helped you clean the table. he then started to ask you about last night.

"hey, were you alright last night? you just ran off and then came back with master link like an hour later. what happened?"

your mouth went dry and you couldn't say anything. your mind started to panic as you replayed the moment of link telling you to not tell anyone about the two of you and you waved judo off.

"i-it was nothing! i just suddenly got a bit sick and...um i told link about it earlier that day so he must've realised and came over to help me."

judo raised an eyebrow slightly and you started to get sweaty. 

"he left princess zelda for that reason?"

-

"u-uh, yeah! she knew about it too--"

-

"at least you're alright now. i was really worried for you...i'm glad to see he is as well."

you smiled at judo and you felt relieved that he didn't catch onto you two. you thanked him for worrying and continued on cleaning the sanctum. 

judo stared at you for a bit longer, his eyes never leaving you.

you were currently walking through the halls near the maid's quarters carrying some towels when an arm grabbed you and pulled you to the side into a narrow hallway with a closet. you yelped a bit when a pair of hands snaked their way onto your waist and an attack of kisses were placed upon your neck. you quickly turned around and saw a pair of beautiful blue eyes and sighed. 

"link! i thought you were someone else! oh my goddesses..."

-

"surprise."

you giggled and kissed his cheek. he then kissed you again, the same way as this morning and he groaned as you dropped the towels and placed your hands on his chest. you then lifted your arms to his neck and continued to kiss him as you wrapped them around him. link kept you close to him and he smiled into the kiss. 

suddenly he heard two female voices nearby and linked instantly let go of you and grabbed your hand. you squealed a bit when he pulled you into the small closet with him and he told you to keep quiet. you nodded. it was a tight fit and you started to get nervous. there were small gaps in the closet where you and link watched.

the two girls walking by giggled and chatted to each other when the one closest to the small hallway stood still. you and link held your breaths. 

"rena? what's wrong?"

-

"there's some towels here...? that's weird."

you cursed and your head hit the back of the closet and link placed his hand onto your mouth. the maid looked over at the closet and she raised an eyebrow.

"oh yeah! maybe one of the maids dropped them here?"

-

"but why? this is a small alleyway with a closet. i think the closet if for brooms and stuff...i thought i heard something too."

rena approached the closet slowly and started to reach for the handle. you and link stayed dead silent.

"rena! just grab the towels and let's go, i don't want to get yelled at by fludia like (y/n). remember when she got fired? come on!"

-

"okay! okay! just saying she didn't actually get fired, 'cause now she's princess zelda's personal maid and i heard she has her own room!"

rena grabbed the towels off the floor and quickly folded them in her arms as she walked off with her friend, chatting about whatever. 

you and link sighed out loud and link opened the closet door, a smile on his face. he gestured for your hand so he could pull you out of the closet. he then kissed your lips again and you smiled. his hand holding yours tightly.

"that was fun, let's do that again."
