Kay guys, I'm back. And decided to edit the summary a little bit thanks to one of my reviews on part one. now it specifies its a LinkxVaati story. Enjoy!

The morning comes, hard and fast (A/N no pun intended xD). I groan and open my eyes, immediately regretting this decision. "I've got the worst hangover ever..." I moan, placing a hand to my forehead. "What the hell happened last night?"

I look around the room and see all the clothes strewn about. "What... not all of these are mine... Oh goddesses, please tell me I don't know her."

I look over at the other side of the bed and nearly jump out of the bed. "Sh... Shakra?" I utter, my hangover forgotten.

The young woman beside me groans and rolls over, opening her eyes. "Dark? What–are you naked? Why am I so sore be...tween... Oh you did not. We did not- I don't remember anything from after seeing you in the bar!"

I lean over the bed, elbows on knees, head resting on my hands. "I don't either." Almost leaping from the bed, I grab my clothes and start to dress. "Get dressed. None of this ever happened, got it?"

When Shakra doesn't reply, I look at her and repeat sharply, "Got, it?"

She nods frantically. "Y-yes... Yes. Vaati won't ever find out. It's not as if I'll get pre-pregnant or anything." She laughs nervously.

I nod, the corners of my mouth turning into a frown. "No, of course you're not. I'm sure I pulled out before..."

"But there isn't any...ahem...yeah." Shakra blushes and looks away, standing to get dressed. I turn away respectively and clear my throat.

"Of course. You'll just, go home and I'll leave. Find fulfilment somewhere else." *Oh goddesses this is awkward...* I think, running a hand down my face.

"This is so awkward..." Shakra says, saying my thoughts.

I scoff and nod. "No kidding."

Shakra walks around me and looks up at me, fully dressed. "This never happened."

I nod and Shakra leaves.

Weeks pass without mention of my incident of leaving Vaati; Dark doesn't come to visit. Vaati welcomes me home with open arms, but still won't let us have a child. I'm still afraid that Dark got me pregnant, but nothing ever happens, up till a month after Dark and I's drunken one-night stand.

I spit again, wiping my mouth of bile. *That's the second time this week...* I think to myself. My fingers find their way to my belly; it's expanding.

*This isn't good... Not at all.* I bite my lip, trying to hold back another round of vomit.

"Shakra? Are you alright?" Vaati walks into the room and sees me bent half over, clutching my stomach. He rushes over to me and gently unfolds me. "Shakra, what's wrong?"

I just shake my head; I know I can't tell him the truth, it would devastate him.

"You're throwing up more frequently every week. Something's wrong...are you ill?"

I nod, tears threatening to overflow.

"Oh love..." Vaati murmurs.

"I'm sorry," I whisper, looking away from him.

In a sweep of his arms, I'm in Vaati's grasp. He carries me to our room and lays me down in the bed. Pulling the blankets over me he says, "Don't be, Shakra...I'll find a cure for you."

*He thinks I'm sick.* I think, chewing my lip some. *He'll find out soon enough, though...*

Another week passes and I stop throwing up; Vaati thinks its because of the potions he's giving me. Then I start to *act* like a pregnant woman. I'm sensitive at the littlest things.

One day, Vaati jokes, "You're acting like you're pregnant, Shakra," with a chuckle.

I laugh nervously with him, knowing that he's right.

"Well you can't be." I know Vaati's seeing through me now. "But, this all started two weeks after you went to town..." I can practically see the wheels in his head turning.

I can tell that he's about to accuse me of being pregnant soon, so I open my mouth to speak. But no words come out; I can't tell him.

"You're pregnant, aren't you? You got knocked up by some guy when you went to town, didn't you?" There it is, the accusation.

"N-no...Vaati it's not like that... Please, you don't understand."

A cold look overcomes Vaati's features as he backs away from the bed. "Oh I understand completely, Shakra. You betrayed my trust, I told you not to go to town!" Vaati starts to leave the room.

"W-wait, Vaati...it's not like that! Dark was drunk, and I just, joined h–"

Vaati cuts me off; "You were *drunk*? You and *Shadow*? What the hell, Shakra! You had sex with my best friend! I trusted him; trusted you!"

In a flash Vaati's gone, with only mist left in his wake. "V-V-Vaati..." I sob. "C-come b-back! I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"

I listen to Shakra's anguished cries of apologies and I almost turn back. Almost. Barely thinking, I teleport; it doesn't matter where, just away.

"How could she do that to me?" I yell, ending up in a forest. I swiftly turn and blast a tree away with magic, breathing heavily. "I'm never going back! Hear that, Shakra? I'm never going back!"

I take a deep breath, maybe to yell some more, but I get lightheaded and start to lose my vision. "Oh gods..." I utter before collapsing.
