A/N Ok a big shout out to hippogriff-tamer and h6p8gv for all their help you guys rock!
Tracy walked in to the class room feeling slightly anonnoyed, her boyfriend of the past 5 months had been avoiding her for the past few days and she wanted to know why. Even her best friend knew something was wrong but could not figure out why.
Link was avoiding Tracy. He was just as confused as she about what had happened that weekend. He hadn't meant for it to go quite as far as it had but now that it had he was mad at himself, it had been his fault after all.
Flasback......
Tracy was getting out of bed when the phone rang and she heard her mother call out "Tracy hun the phone is for you its Link" those words kick started her and she was up and out of the room in two minutes flat. She rushed to the phone and almost ripped it out of her mothers hands "Hello"
"Hey there Lil Darlin"
"Hey" she said somewhat out of breath.
"I was wondering if you'd like to go out today?"
"Have you ever known me to say no to an invite like that" she smiled though she knew that he wouldn't be able to see it.
"No." Link grinned he had the house to himself today because his father would be at work all day and he wanted to spend sometime alone with his girlfriend. He couldn't even the remember they were allowed to be alone together let alone the last time he kissed her. He wanted this day to be special.
"Link you still there?" he heard through the phones reciever.
"Yea I'm still here so I was thinking of picking you up around noon if thats ok"
"Yea thats fine just as long as I am home by ten" she reminded him of her curfew.
"Well then I will see you at noon then"
"Ok see you then"
They hung up and Tracy went to get ready for her date. She put on a blue dress that she knew was Link's favorite and a pair of blue heels. She was just finishing the final touch up on her 'do when she heard her mother calling from the front room that he was here. she quickly finished and left the room with a smile on her face and a spring in her step.
Link saw her before her mother did and he had to supress a groan. Didn't she know what that dress did to him? He had to mentally slap himself to get his mind back on track and off the trail it had veered off too.
"Hey Link" she said as soon as she saw him.
Link could do nothing but stare at his girl with a smile playing around his lips. "Trace, you look gorgeous" he finally said.
"Thanks Link"
"Mrs. Turnblad I will have her home by ten" he said to her mother giving her his famous wink.
Edna rolled her eyes but smiled at the young couple. She was happy that her baby was happy and to have a boyfriend like Link, well she couldn't have asked for a better young man for her daughter. She smiled and waved the young couple out the door.
"Link. Where are you taking me?" curiousity finally getting the better of her and she just had to ask
He grinned and said nothing, not wanting to spoil the suprise. Fifteen minutes later he pulled into his driveway and cut the engine. He looked over at her a crooked grin on his face.
"Link?"
Instead of answering her he got out and walked over to her side of the car to help her out. "Trace, I want itto be a surprise" he said before kissing her surprised mouth.
"Link Larkin you are just full of surprises aren't you" she managed to say when they pulled apart to breath.
"Of course babe how else would Ikeep you on your toes hmm"
"Oh you" she said playfully swatting him in the arm "So are you going to just stand here all day or are you going to show mw this surprise?"
He complied and offered her his arm "Shall we?" he said as gallently as he could.
"We shall" she played along and took his arm.
They walked into his house and Tracy immediately let out a gasp when he led her into the dinning room.
"Link! you didn't have to do all this just for me"
"Yes I did lil Darlin."
"Why?"
"Because you are special and I wanted to tell you something that I have been meaning to tell you for a while now and just haven't found the perfect time or place to do so"
"And what would that be?" though she had a pretty good idea she wanted him to say it she wanted to hear him tell her that he loved her before she told him.
"Trace, we have been together for five months now and I just realized that I haven't told you that I love you. I think I have from the moment I saw you dancing in the detention room that day but I knew for sure the day of the march. I was so worried about you that I went to your house. Then the next day I was wondering what you had planned and was nervous as hell and then I saw you and I knew everything would be alright. When I kissed you that night I wanted too. It wasn't for the camera it was for you. I wanted to show you even if I didn't say the words just how much I truely loved you."
Tracy smiled and had to keep herself restrained from jumping into his arms. He loved her!
"Trace please say something"
The pleading in his voice snapped her out of her reverie and she said quickly, "Link, I love you too." it was all she was able to get out her mind still slightly in a daze from his confession.
He wasted no time he pulled her into his arms and kissed her like he would never see her again. A kiss she returned wholeheartedly. Before either of them knew it they were headed towards his bedroom. Clothes were removed by curious hands as they touched and caressed each newly exposed piece of skin. He gently laid her down on his bed as he continued to kiss her only to make his way down her neck where he left a love bite before settling at her ample breasts. He dared to kiss each one causing her to giggle at the sensation. He continued to lavish her with attention before each exhausted from their play fell asleep curled up in the others arms.
.....End of flashback
