"Can we cuddle together again tonight?"

"Can we cuddle again tonight?" The question seemed innocent, but Link knew there was more to the question than that. Zelda wanted validation, safety, to feel better about herself and what she had done. Could Link give that to her? After thinking it over, Link nodded to her. He did still care about her, after all, and last night had been nice. The news clearly made Zelda happy, as her reaction was to rush over to Link and hug him tightly, then give him a quick kiss on his cheek. "Thank you so much!" With that decided, they got into bed and Link once again played the part of the big spoon and cuddled up to Zelda's back, his hands once again resting on her stomach.

Link was sure he had dreams that night, but when he awoke they disappeared, leaving him wondering what exactly had captured his interest in his sleep. Something felt odd about the bed as his eyes opened, and he saw that he was alone, a note on the bedside table. It read, "Link, I had to leave early this morning, urgent business needed my attention. I hope you have a good day, and I look forward to seeing you again in the evening." Part of Link felt oddly betrayed by this, upset that she had left without saying anything. Still, there was nothing more to do. Link rose from the bed and did what was now a daily ritual, going to the mirror to see what had changed overnight. The changes were indeed speeding up, as Link definitely now sported a small pair of breasts on his chest. A quick check of his private regions showed that they had shrunk a little, and in general Link looked much more feminine than masculine now, his body having more curves than was usual on a man.

Accepting this next round of changes, Link moved to the bookshelf and found a book on government, which he was able to completely finish despite it's enormous length in the course of the day. When Zelda finally came back to the room, she looked different.
