Description

Zelda sat on the bed next to him. She bent over him, slipping her arms beneath his neck.
"Link," she whispered,
"thank you for everything."
"You saved my life."
"Thank you," she repeated, closing her eyes and kissing him on the lips. He closed his eyes returned the gesture, gently caressing her cheek as she continued kissing him. Suddenly, she stopped and smiled at him, looking into his blue eyes. She could easily see how tired he was.
"Go back to sleep," she whispered, brushing a few loose brown bangs out of his face. She kissed him once more and stood up, watching his eyes close as he turned his head to the side.

My personal continuation of the story in the description, above the "----------" line:

She went to the kitchen for a snack. After she was done eating, she quietly entered Link's room again, because she didn't want to wake him. She knew how tired he was. But she still wanted to check on him to make sure he was okay. Zelda was just as tired as Link was. He noticed the slight motion of the bed as Zelda sat down on it and opened his eyes again. "Would you like to sleep next to me?", he asked with a very tired voice. "Oh, yes", she quietly answered and took off her slippers. She then laid down next to him. It only took her 20 minutes to fall asleep.


(The next morning)


The crowing of a rooster caused Link and Zelda to wake up at the same time. "Good morning, Zelda!", he said. "Good morning, my lifesaver!", she answered and hugged him. They smiled at each other for a couple of seconds, until Zelda asked him if he slept well. "Very well. I was so tired", he replied. "I could see how tired you were, Link", she said and asked him if they wanted to have breakfast. Link answered, "Good idea! Let's go!"


And the peaceful time began...
