Author's Notes: I came up with this short little drabble while writing another Aulu piece (will be posted eventually) and thought about what possibly was going on while everyone else was out having some fun besides Rikku.
Stolen Moments
Perched in her tree above the clearing, Rikku exhaled loudly as she rolled over to look below her. Kimahri had long since left with Yuna to the spring with Tidus not far behind. Lu and Auron were on watch and checking for fiends in the vicinity.
Rikku snorted loudly to herself, Patrolling? Yea, right. More like playing nookie.
That left Wakka and herself alone at the camp. Letting her gaze fall on the sleeping blitzball player, Rikku could not help but feel a little dejected. She and Wakka had really been hitting it off after Rikku had joined as Yuna's guardian. It saddened her that Wakka had put up a wall between them since he realized at Lake Macalania she was an Al Bhed. She had not let it show and instead put up a defensive front of defiance.
Quietly letting herself land on the ground, Rikku walked over to where Wakka lay, his blitzball tucked like a pillow under his head. Youthful crush or not, she could not deny the desire she had to sneak one little…
Her lips lingered on his for a moment as she savored the taste and sensation, even if he was not aware of it. Wakka moaned in his sleep as he shifted to a more comfortable position. Rikku smiled to herself as she felt triumphant at eliciting such a response from him. Climbing back up to her tree spot, Rikku began to relax with contentment, remembering the moment they shared even if there were doubts that they were not meant to be.
"Lulu…" the whisper passed from his lips unheard by Rikku as she drifted into slumber.
