Disclaimer: Don't own them. I wish I did though that way I didn't have to do this with them. Write fanfics.

Note: This story is slow so if you don't have the patience for these kind of stories. Don't bother reading. BUT there's lot of Yuna & Tidus so will that help you cope with the slowness?

"Oh my gosh Yunie! That's so cute!" squealed Rikku as they all sat down on the sofa in their small but cozy living room. Yuna had just showed how room mates the promise ring Tidus had given her.

"A promise ring, charming. But not for Tidus." Paine said as she got up and headed into the kitchen.

"What? I think it's cute! Hehe, what exactly did he say when he gave it to you?" Rikku said with eagerness.

"He said that he knows we don't want to get married right now and that an engagement ring just isn't for him. So he took out this promise ring." Yuna said softly, as she smiled looking down at it.

"Your lucky. I want to meet a boy like Tidus." Rikku said sighing as she laid down on the couch.

"You alread did Rikku." Paine said sternly.

"Who?" Rikku said as she got up.

"Gippal!" Paine said loudly and started laughing. Yuna giggled.

"Ah!" Rikku said furiously. She headed straight into her room and closed the door.

"Paine, that wasn't so nice now was it?"

"It's the truth Yuna. Plus, it was funny. I couldn't help it." Paine said as sat down near Yuna. Paine leaned her head back in on the cushion. She was tired from work and school.

"Yeah but its Rikku," Yuna paused and looked at the room door,"I want to marry Tidus Paine. He just seems so right for me." Yuna continued softly. Looking back down at the ring.

"That's pretty big words to say Yuna. Don't really say it if you don't mean it."

"But I do. I really do. Tidus is the only person I've learned to love. He's the one. I can feel it."

"Don't be sure Yuna," Paine said with eye unlids closed,"you have to test the waters first before decided to get out and move on."

"Huh?"

"You have to see if he is the one. You have to date other people to see if his love isn't comparable."

"I don't have to do I?" Yuna asked looking at Paine. She was confused.

"You don't but it's best. That way you know you love him and your relationship is even more stronger." Paine slowly opened her eyes. "But you don't have to Yuna okay?" Paine got up and stretched. "I'm heading to bed. I have class tomorrow. Make sure you turn off the lights okay?" Yuna nodded.

She waited until she heard Paine's door click close. She reached over on the coffee table for the telephone. She began dialing a familiar number she recognized from day one of their meeting.

"Hello?"

"Tidus."

"Hi Yuna."

"Hi, um. I just wanted to call you to see if we could hang out tomorrow? Do you have time?"

"You don't have class tomorrow?"

"No, not until Tuesday. So can you?" Yuna asked.

"Yeah, I always have time for you. So where do you want to go?" Tidus asked yawning.

"How about the park across the school building?"

"Yeah sure. Is 3 oclock fine?"

"Yeah, sure for me." Yuna said delighted.

"Oh okay then. Good."

"Oh before I forget. Thank you for the ring."

"Don't say thank you. Its not needed."

"You sound tired Tidus?" Yuna askd listening to his lazy voice.

"Oh I was just napping for a bit. Got back from work." He said tiredly.

"I should let you sleep then. I'm sorry."

"No! Please don't. I'm awake. Just talk. I want to hear your voice." Tidus pleaded. Yuna held a small smile.

"Ok."

A long silence went on. Yuna didn't want to be running on words so silence was the way to go. Five minutes passed and a soft snore was heard. She giggled slightly.

"Goodnight Tidus. Sweet dreams. I love you." Yuna said as she clicked off.

A/N: Paine is not the bad guy/girl. I'm not trying to make her. Okay? I love Paine x3
