Summary
My take on a 5+1 fic for Twilight Princess Zelink. Five rumors Link heard about Zelda that were wrong, and then the one that turned out to be true.

“I heard you needed a guard.”
“Oh.” She seemed… disappointed, somehow. Her brow was furrowed, her lips curled down at the edges. “Is that all?” Zelda’s voice was scarcely louder than a whisper.
“Well…” Link trailed off. How did he tell her about his worry for her? How the people in town spoke about her? How the castle gossiped? Whispering that she was unstable, a ruler with no footing, who didn’t even trust her own guard.
Zelda shook herself. “I apologize. My curiosity has the better of me.”
How did he tell her he welcomed it? That he wished to cross the ravine between them, but that would require a bridge he had yet to build. So he said nothing and told himself it wasn’t from a lack of courage.
“I am sure I could not ask for a better guard. Of course, you have the appointment.” She hesitated. “Is that truly all you wish, Link?”
