Links pov

"Hey Rhett?" I called over from the kitchen. he wandered in to find me serving up breakfast.

"Should we tell the mythical beasts? Like about us? I mean we have been going out for a while now. but its up to you man..." he took a long sip of coffee.

"I wanna tell them Link I really do but I'm just worried that they will respond negatively you know? I'll think about it on our way to work ok? Why don't you go get ready huh?" he walked round the counter, planting a kiss on my cheek before running upstairs. I finished my breakfast before going on my twitter. I typed in a quick tweet about todays episode. I felt my phone go off in my pocket but completely ignored it. I put my plate in the sink before walking upstairs. I knocked on the bathroom door.

"Rhett? Come on man we are gonna be late!" the water stopped running and there was a loud rustling before the door swung open to see a shirtless Rhett walking past me. He strolled into our bedroom and appeared a few minutes later with his work clothes on. He slinked past me smiling.

"Come on! what are we waiting for? Lets go!"

later on (at work)

"well that's the end of this episode but first mythical beasts we would like to announce something to you!" I grabbed Rhetts hand and held it tightly in mine. There was a silence over the crew; everyone was smiling.

"A while back I introduced my good friend Link here to you all! And ever since then you guys have been really supportive to us and the choices we have made on this show. So we really hope you support this one! Link and I are now officially together!" he put his arm around me. The crew started to clap in the background.

"Great now theres gonna be even more fanfiction about us!" I laughed and snuggled into his arm.

"and we are clear!" Stevie shouted. Everyone cheered for us. We stood up and left the building, sitting in my car for a few minutes.

"I'm so happy we did that!" Link grinned.

"You better stay in this good mood! cause I have a surprise for you Link. Just put on this blindfold and trust me."

"Can I take it off now Rhett? You're worrying me a little." I chuckled nervously. I felt him push me through a pair of doors.

"Ok! Now let me set you here..." he took his hands off my shoulders and moved away, leaving me standing alone.

"Ok now you can take it off!" I peeled off the ribbon and put on my glasses. I saw a familiar figure standing in front of me.

"MOM!" I ran over to her and wrapped my arms around her, my eyes tearing up.

"I got a phone call this morning saying that she was well enough to be released. So I thought we would surprise you!" my mom smiled at us.

"I watched your episode while I was waiting. I'm so happy you finally found someone honey!" she patted me on the back. "I told you this one was a keeper!" Rhett chuckled in the background.

"Well you're coming back to ours tonight mom. Tonight I'm gonna make you dinner to celebrate!" we picked up her bags and took her outside, the smile on my face getting wider.

Rhetts pov

"I'm just so happy you are better mom!" Link hugged his mom again. she smiled and patter his hand.

"Rhett thank you for taking in my son in and loving him and taking care of him!" she smiled at me.

"Its no problem Sue. I love your son and I will take care of him!" I smiled at Link. Suddenly there was a loud knock on the door.

"I wonder who that could be at this hour?" I walked towards the door, the figure pounding on the door again. I looked through the peekhole.

"Crap Link its your dad!" Link ushered his mom to hide in the washing room. I unlocked the door and opened it a little.

"Can I help you sir?" his face was screwed in anger. He pushed against the door, barging into the house.

"Where's my wife?! I know she's here!" I slammed the door and rushed in front of him.

"Listen you cant just barge into my house, uninvited pal. I'm gonna have to ask you to leave or I will call the police." my fists were clenched in anger. He pushed me so I fell onto the floor.

"I am not leaving without her!" Link came running out of nowhere and helped me up.

"Just go away dad! Why cant you accept that mom left you and she doesn't love you any more?!" he strode towards Link and punched him straight in the face, knocking his glasses off. Blood started to trickle down his nose.

"Hey leave my boyfriend alone!" I swung at him but missed. He grabbed hold of me and rammed me against the wall, tearing the wallpaper off. Link scrambled to his feet in order to help me. He pulled his dad by the shoulder, dragging him off of me. I rushed to the phone and dialled 911.

"hello emergency services how can we help?" I heard glass crashing from the kitchen.

"I need a police car at 121 Manterol Avenue please! My boyfriends dad has come and he is attacking both of us! Please hurry!" more awful noises came in the distance.

"The police are on their way sir!" I slammed down the phone and rushed into the kitchen. I saw Link on the floor, his arm covered in cuts and his shirt had been ripped open, showing several bruises and gashes.

"Get. away. from. him!" I said through gritted teeth. He ran towards me with all his might. I dodged out of the way and swung my fist as hard as I could. Luckily it caught onto the side of his face and he staggered a little. I punched him again and his eyes rolled into the back of his head. he slumped to the floor completely out cold. Suddenly the police kicked down my door and ran towards me.

"Sir step away from him please...did he hurt you in anyway?" two policemen were dragged him out of my house.

"No I don't think so. But my boyfriend is injured and looks in bad shape." the policeman glanced over to Link and ran outside.

"Sue you can come out now!!" I shouted. I saw her being ushered outside by a policewoman. I rushed over and leant down to Link.

"Hey Link buddy you ok?" he groaned and pushed himself onto his hands and knees, one arm over his stomach.

"Hey be careful man you took quite a bruising..." By complete surprise he vomited straight onto the tile floor, some of it splattering onto me.

"Woah its ok! Just calm down!" he vomited a few more times, some blood pouring out of his mouth as well. He gasped and panted for air, spitting onto the floor. Then he slumped into my lap. I panicked as he had become quite warm.

"SOMEONE HELP ME!!" two paramedics appeared with a stretcher and carried him out the house.

"Is he gonna be ok?" I peered as he was loaded into an ambulance. The female medic patted me on the arm.

"He has suffered several horrible gashes and some abdominal bruises which is why he was throwing up. But we are just going to take him to the hospital just to check him over. " I rushed into my car, ignoring the policemen around me and followed in pursuit, praying he was gonna be ok.
