A Forgotten Love

Link walked towards the Lunar chambers and took a deep breath, okay, so maybe it wasn't the best time to talk to her about something that was on his mind. But it would have to be someday wouldn't it? Link looked over the hug doors and raised his fist and knocked on the door. Hearing the words 'come in.' He walked in, shutting the doors behind him.

He had to admit, the room looked cool. With it's nicely dark blue walls, with little spots of yellow, which resembled the stars, and one silver-white outline, he had guessed that was the moon. He chuckled and walked towards the night Princess. He gave a bow and stood up right.

"Hello." He said, smiling, "I need to talk to you about something Luna." He could hear the princess give a light laugh. As much as Link loved hearing her laugh, now was not the time.

"Speak hero of time."  Luna said, walking towards Link and sitting down.

"Well...It's about Twilight Sparkle." He would've guess that Twilight liked him, but he was wondering how to break it to her..."I've been wondering about what's been happening between us. And well..."

"Your confused about how to break it to her that you don't like her in that way..."

"Yes."

"Link, I'm sure if you would just say it, she would understand."

Link winced, "But how? We're good friends. Shining Armor and I have gotten along these days, and I don't want to break his little sister's heart. I feel like if I did, then he would hate me for it."

Luna stayed quiet for a moment and started laughing, catching Link off guard. What was so funny?

"What's so funny Luna?" Link asked, cocking his head to the side.

"You really think that Shining Armor would hate you for breaking Twilight's heart? Link, he wouldn't hate you. But he would be mad for a while but he would understand if you did. You don't see Twilight like that, you see someone else like that. Don't you?"

"Err...Well, yes." Link admitted, "And she's beautiful and adorable."

Luna laughed again and gave Link a friendly nuzzle and went on with her work. The nuzzle made Link blush but he didn't show it to her. He bow again and took his leave. Okay, now just to find Twilight and tell her.

Twilight had made her way over to the Lunar chambers, she had heard about Link heading that way. On her way there, she had bumped into him. He smiled and didn't look to happy about something. Something was wrong. And Twilight was going to find out what.

"You don't look happy about something, Link," Twilight said, "Is something wrong?"

"You could say that."

"Tell me what's wrong."

"Twilight...I need to tell you something." Twilight had stopped him right there. She need to tell him something important first.

"First, I want to tell you something Link."

"Go ahead. The Princess should always speak first."

Twilight took a deep breath, "For the past few weeks that you've been here, I've been feeling something that's more than friendship. And I wanted to tell you that...I now know what that is."

Link winced, "And that is?" His voice deepened with guilt as to what he was going to tell her after.

"Link, I...I love you." Twilight answered, "For a while, I've been confused as to what I've been feeling around you. So, I ask you now, do you feel the same way?"

Damn it...I'm going to feel bad... Link thought to himself before taking a breath and answering Twilight's question. "Twilight, we're great friends and you know that, but..."

"But what?"

"But...I don't like you like that. I'm sorry Twilight." Link said, walking away already, leaving Twilight. He felt bad, but it needed to be done. He didn't like her like that. He liked her as a friend.

"Twilight?" A voice said, Twilight looked over her shoulder and saw Celestia. "Are you alright?"

"No." Twilight said, looking down, "I need to be alone."

That was the last thing Twilight said before vanishing to her own castle.

"What happened to her Sister?" Luna asked, landing beside Celestia. "I didn't mean to fly in the castle but I didn't want to get in the way of whatever happened."

"I think...I think Link broke Twilight's heart."

He did ask me how to break it to her... Luna thought to herself, Didn't think he would actual do it though...He's too soft and sweet to do anything like that.

"So you broke her heart!?" A very angry Shining Armor yelled at Link, "Thought you were nice!"

"I am! It's just..." Link broke, he slid down the wall and sat on the ground, "I don't like her like that...I thought she would understand and take it easy."

"I can understand your confusion, Link, but she loved you!"

"Yet I love someone else."

"Who?"

"Don't you remember? I said I liked the night princess."

Shining stood still, oh yeah, he did say that. He must of forgotten about that.

"Are you going to tell her?" Shining asked, "Pretty sure she would be happy."

"You're kidding. Me and a princess?"

"You could've ended up with one but you turned that one down." Shining reminded, "There still another chance y'know?"

"I think I might."
