Author's Note: I got carried away. I'm so sorry-my basketball career has just reached the climax of our career. We have two away games this week and I doubt I'll have time to update. I'm going to try my best though, so don't worry.
Yuna laid in the comforts of Tidus' bed. His scent flowed back into her brain. She pulled the covers up closer to her. Her cheek caressed his pillow. Back into dreamland was where she was headed. Back to memory land was where her heart was bringing her to.
"Good evening Madam," Tidus said as he held out a bouquet of roses. He was dressed in a suit. Clean cut shoes and his hair gel--ed and put back. He stood in awe and he looked at the fine-young figure in front of him.
Yuna stood in a black-strapped dress that was cut off in the back. She had on her sachet that she carried in her arms. Pearls were both around her neck and on her ears. Her hair curled from top to bottom, front to back. She stood on black heels that gave her look even more intriguing. She smiled at Tidus and slowly took the bouquet.
"Thank you Monsieur. Let me go put these in a vase first," Yuna said as she headed into her kitchen to find a vase that was under the sink. She poured water into it and unwrapped the roses.
Tidus stood at the doorway and watched her. He couldn't believe that Yuna had said yes to him. Years of just knowing her as a friend. This night might change for both of them.
"You look really pretty Yuna," Tidus said as he put his hands in the pockets of his dress pants. Yuna looked up and smiled.
"You clean up pretty good yourself," she said as she finished up by placing the vase on the table. She stood next front of Tidus and waited. She didn't know what to do. Tidus realized this and held out his arm. Yuna wrapped hers around it. They were off, to their first date.
"Are you sure this isn't burning a hole in your pocket? It looks quite expensive," Yuna said looking thru the menu. Tidus peered over his.
"Don't worry about it. I got it covered, so just pick whatever's going to fill your stomach," Tidus said. Yuna nodded as a waiter came by.
"Are you ready to order?" The waiter said as he held a note pad in his hand and a pen in the other. Yuna nodded as she placed down her menu.
"I think I'll have the salad first then the sea food special," Yuna said. The waiter began jotting down a couple of letters.
"How about a drink?" Yuna paused as she looked down at the menu and looked back up at the waiter.
"I'll have just water," the waiter nodded and jotted that down too. The waiter looked over to Tidus.
"Are you ready to order Monsieur?" Tidus nodded. He looked at the waiter and placed down his menu.
"I'll have the krutonic salad followed by the steak meal," he paused and smiled, "scratch the madam's order of water. We'll have wine." The waiter nodded and jotted that down too.
Yuna looked at him and smiled. She looked around the restaurant. There was many other tables filled with other dates. In the middle of the restaurant was a dance floor. The restaurant was two stories-on the second floor was a band playing. Apparently they had taken a break and had decided to just play music. Suddenly a familar song came on that Yuna loved.
The restaurant was filled with the lyrical charm of Lifehouse. Playing her favorite song, You & Me. Yuna looked over at Tidus. Many people got up and started dancing.
"Do you dance?" Yuna asked Tidus.
"No, I'm horrible at it," Tidus said blushing. Yuna nodded as she stared at everyone dancing.
"I love this song, it's my favorite." Yuna said. Tidus studied Yuna as she watched other couples get up and dance on the dance floor. Tidus held a hidden smile as he pushed back his chair. He stood up and held out his hand to her, holding a big smile.
"Would you care to dance?" Tidus asked. Yuna looked at his hand then up at Tidus' eyes.
"I thought you didn't know how to dance," she said eyeing him suspiciously. Tidus chuckled a bit and shrugged.
"I'm willing to do anything for you just so that you can tell your friends you had a great night with me; and mean it,"Tidus said with such a strong and lean voice. His hand still held out with his other hand tucked behind him. Yuna nodded as she held out her hand and his hand took it.
Holding on to it, Tidus led Yuna to the dance floor. Facing each other; Tidus was confused on what to do. Yuna laughed as she saw the look in Tidus' eye. She took ahold of Tidus' right hand and placed it a little above her hip. Tidus watched her as she did this. Yuna's right hand took ahold of Tidus' left hand and Yuna's left hand was placed right on Tidus' right shoulder. Tidus paused as he looked down at his feet. He needed to know where his feet would go. He didn't want to step on Yuna's feet. Yuna noticed this and leaned into him closer. The cheeks touching each other and his lips right infront of his ear.
"Just follow the beat of the song and the charm of the lyrics," Yuna whispered as her grip of her right hang slipped around Tidus neck along with the left. Tidus' left hand fell into place at the right side of Yuna's hip.
'I'm tripping on words. You got my head spinning. I don't know where to go from here. Cause it's you and me... It's something about you now. I can't quite figure out. Everything she does is beautiful. Everything she does is right. Cause it's you and me... "
The flow of the music helped Tidus' footwork go with Yuna's. They floated across the dance floor. Their hearts intertwining with Lifehouse' charm. As the song faded off, the orchestra band began their playing. Moment ruined, Yuna pulled away.
"I think our food is ready," Yuna smiled as she slowly but gently took off Tidus' hands on her hip.
The evening went by quickly. Dinner was incredible and dessert was sweet. Tidus and Yuna were at Yuna's doorway. Silence and awkwardness swallowed the hallway.
"I mean it when I say I had a terrific date tonight," Yuna smiled. Tidus nodded as he began to look off at the elevator. Yuna was waiting for Tidus to go in while Tidus was waiting for Yuna to come in.
"Well, I'll call you later okay?" Tidus said as he smiled as he placed his hands into his pockets of his pants. Yuna rolled her eyes as she leaned in for the kiss. Aiming for his lips but ended up kissing another place. Tidus had turned his head at the 'right' moment and Yuna's lips touched Tidus' cheek. Yuna pulled away and blushed. Tidus' eyes got big and he looked at Yuna and smiled.
"Ops, hehe. I guess I'm kind of bad at timing. Goodnight," Yuna slowly turned around and placed her hand on the doorknob. Tidus' placed his hand on her shoulder and slowly turned her around. Yuna looked up and him and Tidus leaned in. Eyes both closed and lips caressing each other.
Lip locked, Tidus slowly leaned Yuna against the door. Yuna's arms went around his neck and Tidus' hands right above her hip. Yuna slowly rubbed his neck. Tidus slowly pulled away. Their foreheads touching and breathe warmth.
"I'll definitely call you tomorrow, okay?" Tidus said as he smiled. Yuna nodded as she leaned in again and quickly kissed his lips.
"And I'll defintely pickup," Yuna said smiling.
Yuna's eyes opened. She laid facing up, eyes up at the ceiling. Her eyes had been dry but after a few moments. Tears began to fall, she sat up. Eyes wiping away the pain. Wiping away the memories. She looked over at the clock at his bedstand. It was still early, way early for Tidus to be away. She swung her legs over and slipped on her flipflops.
She just couldn't do it. Spending time with Tidus caused her to have painful memories. Memories that were painful yet pleasing and comforting at the same time. Zipping up her jacket, Yuna also fixed up her hair. She slowly opened his door and hurried on out. Being careful on where she stepped at on the floor.
She tiptoed through the hallway and through the living room. She looked over on the couch and saw Tidus laying down. She smiled as she blew him a kiss and headed out the door. After closing the door, Yuna hurried on out. The less she was in there, the less his scent and memory would be in her heart and brain and memory.
Her walk to her apartment was time consuming but after reaching it. She knocked on the door and waited. She heart footsteps and a couple of groans. After a while, someone opened the door. Rikku was in her dress-robe and her hair was a mess. She shook her head and tilted it.
"Yunie?" Rikku said slowly. Yuna nodded and gently pushed her way in. She put her hands on Rikku's shoulder and whispered. "Go back to bed," Rikku nodded and Yuna turned back to lock the door. After clicking the locks, Yuna followed Rikku into their bedroom and landed on her bed.
She closed her eyes and reached over on her bedstand to find her promise ring. One tear fell and Yuna quickly wiped it away. She laid in bed the remaining of the morning. Half the time waking up and half the time actually sleeping. She couldn't let it go. She couldn't let go the thought that she and Tidus were over. She couldn't let go of it and she couldn't stop thinking of it.
Author's Note: Okay. Long enough. I'm tired. It's 11:52 p.m. Just got done watching Date Movie. Review if you want, I know I don't deserve it. I've lied to you so many times and for that I am greatfully sorry.
