I'm here! This chapter is dedicated to TifaValentine99. It was her birthday last week. T.T I'm sorry I'm late! I've been feeling crappy all week so I didn't get anything done. But here it is! Happy Birthday TifaValentine99! Oh! And Final Fantasy: Unlimited and all its characters are not mine. They belong to SquareEnix. And I'm only getting satisfaction and enjoyment out of this. No money. Enjoy!

Kaze was unaware of what exactly he was about to do but he wanted to let this woman know how he felt about her. "I..."

Lisa had one hand braced against his chest; the other remained trapped within Kaze's. He seemed to be struggling to say something, conflicting emotions battling in his cerulean eyes. She knew better than to prompt him. It would be more likely he'd cease talking than continue.

The man released Lisa's hand to brush a stray hair out of her face, fingers brushing lightly against her skin. What to do now? What to say? Kaze silently cursed himself. All he was good at was battle. Emotional situations left him baffled.

"Kaze?" Lisa asked a worried tone in her voice. She reached up to touch his cheek. She could tell something was wrong, but what it was exactly remained beyond her comprehension.

He froze at her touch, an electric shock passing through his entire body. For the first time in his life he was desperately afraid.

Lisa dropped her hand when he halted all movement and she looked down. Why was it that every time she touched him he stopped dead in his tracks? Suddenly she felt a hand lift her chin. She found herself drowning in a pair of blue eyes, eyes that she could not forget.

"Lisa..." Kaze whispered, barely audible to her ears.

She was about to ask what he wanted when her intended words were abruptly cut off by his mouth upon hers. Her eyes flew open in surprise. This was something she did not expect.

Kaze withdrew from the gentle kiss, eyes boring into Lisa desperately watching for her reaction. He was terrified that she would reject him.

Lisa reached up to touch her lips, still frozen in shock. She looked up into Kaze's face noticing an expression she had never seen from him, fear. The woman touched his cheek then curled around the back of his head to tangle her fingers in his hair. The action forced Kaze down to her level and she answered with a light kiss of her own. Kaze trembled, shivers going up and down his spine and his heart pounded in his chest. Lisa's reaction greatly relieved him. When she made no motion to move away, he wrapped both arms around her and increased the pressure of his lips on hers. Lisa broke the kiss a few moments later, breathing hard. But she soon returned her attention to his mouth.

Kaze could feel her heart beating in rhythm with his and he found he was losing control over coherent thought. He made one effort to recall his faculties, but Lisa's fingers stroking his chest made him decide to surrender to his feelings. The moment Lisa's lips parted, the former wielder of the Magun took the opportunity to slip his tongue between them. He felt the electric shock that ran through her and he recognized the same feeling flowing through him.

Lisa finally pulled away, her chest heaving. "Kaze," She panted, "This isn't the time."

A wave of disappointment flooded his mind, but he exerted his well trained will and nodded. "Lisa," He whispered, holding her tightly, "I...love you."

A/N: Wow! Make out session with Kaze! Who would like that opportunity? I know I would!
