Author's Note: Hello my lovely readers!!!
I've been kinda busy this week. By kinda I mean a lot! Oo
Anyways I probably will be able to only update twice a week if I'm lucky with my busy schedule!
I will of course try to post more than that!
I strongly suggest that if you haven't read 'My Heart, Your Hands' that you do that before reading this.
Or you may find yourself confused by some of the characters certain situations,living conditions, and their pasts. This is a Link and Tracy story but I will be of course putting other characters in it.
But if you have already read 'My Heart, Your Hands' I hope you enjoy!
This chapter may not be as eventful or as long, as it is the first chapter, but as I continue on it should get more interesting and longer.
You know me..I love drama!
:D
Anyways...here is the long awaited (one week?) sequel to 'My Heart, Your Hands.'
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The confetti surrounding them in almost beautiful flaw of perfection was just what everyone needed after all the drama and hard times. Perfection couldn't simply describe it, for Link knew deep down in his heart..that no matter how much Tracy and him loved each other..it was far from over, the hard times that is. With his current situation, and his thoughts and actions not being the most stable ones, it was gonna be harder then he thought for Tracy and him to work or at least to make it through everything they were inevitably going to go through. But at least right now, in this very moment in time, everything was perfect. Everything. When you finally realize you don't have to walk through life alone anymore..you feel complete, at last. The muffled cheers that were hidden by this one passionate moment were starting to come back to there usual volume. Tracy and Link pulled away from their kiss and quickly realized that they were right in front of a live camera and there were people all around them cheering joyfully. Blacks and whites were dancing together...but just as people and nothing else. Tracy beamed unable to contain her joy. She looked up at Link who was also looking around and had a warm smile planted on his face. He looked down at her, and had this sugarcoated glint in his eyes. The look he was giving her was driving her crazy and she instantly just wanted to jump on him, but she was also very aware her parents were only 10 feet away.
"Wow Trace..look at what you did." Link looked around in awe. Tracy smiled up at him.
"What do you mean me,silly? Look what we did." Tracy whispered to him, he gave her a confused look.
"We? I didn't do anything."
"Yes you did..you inspired me to do the march, and you pulled Inez out on the dance floor! I'm so proud of you!" Tracy giggled and Link smiled.
By now most people have exited the WYZT studious, except for the hyped up council members, and Tracy's parents. Everyones attention turned suddenly to someone who entered the room.
"Helloooo! Did you all miss me?" Brenda shouted joyfully. All eyes went bulged when they saw her not so small stomach, especially Amber's. Amber glanced down at her own small bump knowing that soon she was gonna be that big.
"Brenda sweetie..what are you doin here?" Asked a slightly embarrassed Corny.
"Cornykins!" Brenda ran...well more like waddled over to Corny and placed a big kiss on his cheek.
"I thought you were staying home today?!" Corny whispered sternly to her.
"Well..I was but I heard the good news and I thought I would come down here myself and check it—Amber!?" Brenda tore away from Corny and walked hesitantly over to Amber.
"Its good to see you again..Amber." Brenda spat cattily to her. Amber gave her a look.
"Oh you too sweetie." Amber retorted spitefully.
"Amber its seems like your gaining weight! It looks good on you!" Brenda said sarcastically.
"You're one to talk Brenda! Look at you...you're huge!" She screamed almost ready to pounce herself on Brenda. "Well...you're not as huge as someone in this room." Amber mumbled obviously directing it towards Tracy. Link's face changed immediately, if Amber wasn't a girl..Link would kick her ass for even thinking such things.
"Oh You Bit--" Corny broke up the two.
"Woah, woah break it up you two! Brenda..yelling and getting yourself all worked up isn't good for the baby...lets go home." Corny said softly. Brenda pouted.
"Ok Cornykins...but she started it!" Brenda started nicely but spat at Amber. Amber immaturely stuck out her tongue. Corny sighed and put his arm around Brenda.
"Goodnight everybody! See you all tomorrow!" Corny shouted happily and lead Brenda out of the building.
Link and Tracy turned toward each other.
"Wow." Tracy said simply.
"Yah." Link's eyes were focused on Amber an unreadable expression was playing on his features, but he quickly turned back to Tracy and laughed a little. "We should probably get going..do you want me to walk you home..and talk?" Link asked hopefully.
"Sure!" Tracy answered a little to excited.
"Ok good. I'm just gonna go get my things." Link said giving her a kiss on the lips. They pulled away smiling.
"Alright I'll just tell my parents, and Penny and Seaweed goodbye." Tracy said. They went their separate ways. Link walked down to the dressing room area and bumped into someone. He rolled his eyes seeing it was Amber.
"Great." Link mumbled under his breath.
"Link! I'm so glad I ran into you!" Amber said acting like she didn't even know what happened just minuets ago.
"To be honest...I'm not." Link said bluntly.
"Gee..thanks. I was thinking about what you said yesterday..."Amber started.
"Look Amber I didn't mean what I said..you know about the toilet thing..its not good to be bulimic..I was just..having some problems at that time...well actually I still am but thats not the point." Link rambled on.
"Actually...I was talking about how you said you cared..about me." Amber said with a smile.
"Woah wait Amber...I think you got the wrong idea!" Link put his hands up in defense.
"I don't think I do." Amber said smoothly.
"You do." Link remarked bitterly and walked away to collect his things.
Amber frowned she must have been crazy to think someone, or anyone for that matter cared about her. Somehow she was finding herself strangely attracted to Link all over again. He was sweet and caring..and as he confided didn't have that great of a home life as well. Amber was convinced deep down that Link did have feelings for her somehow, someway. Great. This is just what Amber needed at a time like this. First she ends up losing Miss Teenage Hairspray, fights with Brenda, and is now questioning her feelings and her own sanity. She huffed thinking of all her thoughts colliding in very confusing matter. There was at least someone there to distract her.
"Good job at causing a scene Amber.." Fender said annoyed. Amber shoved the arm he put around her off and rolled her eyes.
"Oh shut up Fender..just drive me home." She spoke quietly and walked towards the exit. Fender stood there for a second and examined Amber. There was something different about her and he knew it. And he certainly didn't like where this was gonna end up.
-----
As soon as Link joined Tracy again she instantly could sense there was something wrong. Or maybe somethings. Link forced a smile on his face and out-stretched his arm. Tracy noticed this and linked arms with him, a warm smile appeared on her face that caused Link's heart to melt.
"Shall we?" Link said cheerily. Tracy giggled at him.
"We shall." They both walked out the exit and to the streets of Baltimore.
"So are your folks ok with me walking you home...all alone?" Link asked looking down at her.
"Well of course they're ok with it. If they weren't I wouldn't be here." Tracy said in playfully. Link must have not caught her playful tone.
"Oh right..I'm sorry Trace I'm just a little distracted thats all." He mumbled glancing at the street lights, which were the only things that were keeping them from being in complete darkness. The faint smell of rain filled their nostrils. Tracy looked up at him in concern.
"Link whats going on with you? I mean yesterday...your arm." Tracy said with complete worry. Link's jaw clenched and he felt his whole body get tense. She hadn't forgot about his arm.
"Look Trace its nothing ok." Link sped through the sentence.
"You have to let me in Link! You can't keep shutting me out. I love you ok? I just want you to be happy." Tracy shouted emotionally. Link's face turned over with pain.
"Tracy...theres nothing wrong. I—I promise." He tried to convince her. She stared at him hard for a second trying to read some sort of feeling behind his icy blue eyes. She sighed sadly and looked up at him again.
"Look at me. We're together for 1 day and I'm already picking a fight. I'm sorry."
"No Trace, Its ok. I'm glad you care." He said simply. She blushed and looked down.
"You never told me what you thought of my new look!" Tracy said enthusiastically trying to lighten the mood. She did a little turn and Link looked her up and down..a little on a the dirty side.
"There I go being an idiot again..I completely forgot! You look..absolutely amazing Trace. Although I will miss your big do, I could definitely get used to this new look. It is you after all." He said sincerely, causing her to blush yet again.
"Ya mean it?"
"Of course I do Trace! I have the most beautiful girl there is!"
"You don't mean that." Tracy said playfully sticking out her tongue.
"Oh yah?" He said devilishly. She smirked at nodded her head. Link laughed. "Alright. I'll show you."
Tracy's eyes bulged when she saw Link get in the middle of the vacant street.
"I am in love with the most beautiful woman ever, Tracy Turnblad!" Link shouted, and it echoed throughout the streets and probably all of Baltimore. Tracy instantly felt embarrassed, over-joyed, and like a giddy school girl all at the same time. She walked over to him and tugged his sleeve.
"Link Larkin, what in the world are you doing?!" She whispered in a loud tone.
"Simply proclaiming my love for you baby doll." He said sweetly leaning down and giving her a kiss. The soft glow from the traffic lights shone on them.
"Aww Link, you're so---" Tracy was cut off by the sound of a horn. She screamed and Link and her ran over to the sidewalk. They were nearly ran over. Link was completely stressed and began pacing, and fixing his hair trying to keep his cool. While Tracy did the most unexpected thing and began to laugh.
"Trace. What the...why are you laughing?" Link asked bewildered. Tracy just continued to laugh. "Its not funny Trace." Finally Link couldn't keep it in and he started laughing as well.
It took a few more seconds for the two of them to stop laughing but they eventually did.
"Wow. That was so random. May I say that what you said in the street was completely charming and romantic. But...also really cheesy." Tracy said giggling at him. Now he blushed.
"I meant every word I said. But I know, I know. I'm a cheese ball." He said scratching the back of his head.
"You're my cheese ball." Tracy said beaming.
"Look who's cheesy now!" Link said giddily. Tracy smiled but suddenly she didn't feel to good. She felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
"Trace...are you ok?" He asked with concern. Tracy clench her abdomen for a second and closed her eyes. A second later the pain went away.
"Ow. That was weird." She said breathlessly. "I'm fine." She looked up at Link who's eyes looked a little glazed over. He quickly blinked away any tears that might have been threating to come out. He shook his head trying to collect his awfully messy thoughts. He looked to his left and saw a sold sign on a house.
"Hey look." Link said nodding his head towards the house. "Looks like we have someone new in town."

Ok I know this was short! And probably a little boring! I promise the next chapters will be way more interesting and have plenty more drama. As you can tell right now I'm doing all the things leading up to the drama.
New chapter should be out before Friday!
I'm gonna try really hard to get it out for you guys.
For some of my readers of 'My heart, Your Hands' you guys loved answering questions I put at the end. So here are some:
1.Do you think there will be more confrontation between Brenda and Amber?
2.Why in the world is Amber getting feelings for Link?
3.Is what Link doing wrong? By keeping his feelings and problems inside and not confiding in Tracy?
4.What do you think is wrong with Tracy(from the sharp pain)?
Thats all I can think of at the moment!
Please, please review!
:D
Thank you!
