"What about that one?" Link asked, pointing up to the sky from the front steps of his girlfriend's house.

Tracy tilted her head and gazed up to the cloud he was indicating. "Uhm," she sighed, "A triangle shaped camera?"

Link chuckled and bent over a bit. "I don't think those exist," he grinned.

She shrugged laid her chin down to be cupped her pale hands. "Whatever. Did you do your homework this time?"

Link smiled sheepishly, blue eyes shinning. He scratched the back of his neck. "No..?" He said slowly.

She rolled her eyes with a smile. "It's important you know."

"Says little Ms. Detention," Link chuckled, taking her hand. "Besides, I had to pick you up, my pride and joy!"

"You're early," Tracy giggled. "And that's why people usually do it after they get home."

He wrapped his arm around her, enjoying the feel of Baltimore's cold air blowing past his face, "I'll be okay, Trace." He whispered, nuzzling his nose into her cheek.

Her heart speed up and she smiled. "Yeah, I know."

It had been about a month since the Little Ms. Hairspray pageant.

Being with Link was a dream come true for Tracy. She loved him and he loved her every ounce as much.

Tracy was probably his closest friend too. He felt like he could tell her anything and they both knew that they definitely couldn't live without each other.

"I love you," Link mumbled sweetly.

Tracy nodded and traced his dark eyebrow softy with her thumb, making him squirm slightly while laughing. "I love you too." She said.

He gazed at her with a smile. Not the wink and patent grin he'd show the camera, but the special one that he wore only for her.

Link stood up and reached out his hand while putting the other behind his back. "Shall we head off to school, M'lady?" He said, bending over a bit.

"Yes, we shall." Tracy replied in an even more of a proper and fancy voice.

He took her hand and led her out to the street. "Ya know, I wish we had more classes together."

"Right, we only have one. History."

"Yeah!" Link groaned, "And we don't sit anywhere near each other!"

"At least I get to see you in the morning," Tracy smiled up at him sincerely and he softened his eyes at her.

"That's my line..."

Link took her hand and squeezed it gently.

At first, Tracy had thought he wouldn't want to be affectionate with her in public. Especially in front of kids in school. But he quickly proved her wrong when he would take every chance to hold her hands or peck her on the lips no matter who was around.

He made her feel loved, and she needed that. She needed him.

Tracy constantly worried about what his parents thought of her or if they even knew about her, but she new that Link probably wasn't the kind of person that would not want his family to know about his relationships and she adored him for that.

He smiled at her while they walked, his aqua eyes never leaving her face.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Tracy asked, chuckling.

"Because you're beautiful."

"Ha ha, very funny." She said with a roll of her eyes, smirking.

"You don't think so?"

He sounded legitimately confused.

Tracy gawked at him and gestured to herself. "It's kind of hard to when you look like this."

"Trace," he stopped and cupped her face in his hands, "I told you that's not what matters. I'm going to love you with all my heart as long as you don't change where it counts." He smiled and let go of her face, taking her hands instead. "Will you still be my girl if I turn into a fat, ugly old man?"

She giggled, "Of course I will."

"Then that's how I feel too."

This conversation had come up once before, yet Tracy melted a bit when he said he'd love her no matter what. She felt that way too after all. "Did you hear anything from the agents?" She asked.

He dropped his gaze and started walking a bit slower. "Uhm, No." Link said quietly, "But I'm sure they didn't forget about me, ya know, after what I did."

"It was the right thing," Tracy smiled, "And I'm sure they loved you."

Link arched his eyebrow up, a shining grin tugging on his face. "You think?"

"I know."

He smiled and wrapped his arm around her while a freshman passed by on his way to school. "Well, I simply adore you, Tracy Turnblad." He said, "In fact, sometimes I wish I was more like you. Always looking on the bright side and such."

"Oh?"

"Yeah! You're just like this inevitable ray of sunshine that lasts for eternity no matter what happens to you. It's amazing."

Tracy giggled and took his hand, "Woah, look at you, Mr. Big words!"

The two laughed but their eyes soon dimmed of excitement when they were met with the school entrance.

"Damn," Link groaned, "I swear we always get here too quickly."

"We're later than the buses," Tracy reminded him, "if we stayed at my house any longer we might not have made it in time." She giggled and readjusted her small bag on her back.

"Yeah," Link ran his hand across his gelled back hair, "but I still like being with you." He frowned sadly.

"I'll see you in third period?"

He whined in disapproval, wanting desperately to be in her homeroom before nodding. "Alright, I love you," he pulled her closer and pecked her on the lips, "bye."

"Love you Link," Tracy waved at him as he left.

Amber stood not far away, arms crossed. Her face was twisted in a hideous scowl as she observed the scene.

"We've got to do something about those two," Tammy said from next to her, shaking her head in annoyance, "they look horrible together."

Amber smirked and her eyes darted towards Noreen and Doreen. "Oh don't you worry," she said, "I've already got an idea."
