>>3529062As time goes on, I get a little bit older and she gets some more games (SSBM and SSBB). I have fun playing "with" her in-game and I play "with" her often. We have fun together for years. As I become a teenager, I start to see her as physically attractive since I'm starting to view girls that way, but since I've been with her for so long, I don't see her as a love interest. But some part deep down is starting to. As I start growing out of being a young teen, my Sheik also gets some new games (HW and SSB4). We are spending a lot of time with each by now, and we both are starting to mature. So we decide to go down memory lane to revisit where we first met (my replaying of OoT when I was 18) so we can see again where this friendship began. My heart starts thumping and thumping. I am old enough to be aware that she is both beautiful on the outside and on the inside, but since we've known each other for so long, I try to suppress it. Finally, I've grown a bit older and now a young adult and my Sheik also has a new game (SSBU). My heart is starting to not be able to handle how much I am holding back from the obvious truth, that I have fallen for her. So it decides to show me that I cannot hide these feelings anymore. But as a stubborn man, I fight it. But I am stupid. I know I couldn't hold out and just gave in to what my heart was telling me. I finally admit to myself that I love my "childhood friend". Now if only I could let her know how I feel. I want to be together with her for many more years.
>>3529063>I recognized that I had a hole in my heart, all those years, that was shaped exactly like her silhouette and that, had I not found her again, I would have spent my entire life trying to fill it in vain.That's a really sweet way of putting it, Ravenfriend. I'm glad you found her. A lot of people have a hole in their heart that they just can never fill, and I'm happy that you were able to despite that.
