Chapter 36: An awkward position
Badminton first thing in the morning, I was glad that it was art after this.
"Hey Tidus, watch what you doing with that deodorant, ya!"
"Oops! Sorry Wakka!" Tidus put the deadly spray away, before he nearly blinded anyone else with it.
There was a loud crack and a groan from Nooj.
"Ur mred! (Oh shit!)" Brother put his racket behind his back, he'd just smacked Nooj over the head with it.
I quickly left the changing room, before things got rough. Coming into the hall I started to set up the courts, Mr Wong was checking the class list. Paine came and took another stand, she had a black tanktop on and black jeans, her trainers squeaked as she walked. Rikku was next with, a white T-shirt and blue shorts she had her normal shoes on. Christie had the same clothes as Paine, but had a white skull on her tanktop. Tidus and Wakka were dressed like Rikku, Lulu and Shinra were sitting out. Brother had forgotten his kit, Buddy's T-shirt had a huge rip in it. Yuna had a white T-shirt on and a long white skirt, she was came hopping over in her blue sports shoes.
"Give you a game?" Yuna asked smiling cheerfully, she was twirling her racket waiting for my answer.
"Sure!" I smiled at her.
Yuna already had a shuttle so I didn't need to trail over to get one, Paine had given me one of her old rackets (You brought your own to the class, there were no spares).
"So what's it up to?"
"Um…" Yuna put a finger to her lip "How about, 22? We'll play for service" I gave a nod.
I took in a deep breath and readied myself, Yuna was getting ready to serve. The shuttle was coming over the net and I took my arm back, I swung at it but…I missed and spun round in a circle.
"My serve!" Yuna giggled as I blushed and tossed her the shuttle. Rikku and Tidus were rolling around their court laughing.
I smiled as the shuttled cleared the net, I ducked two seconds later to avoid being hit in the face. Yuna was standing there smugly a small smile on her face. Bloody hell! She's got quite the arm! Again I tossed Yuna the shuttle, and Yuna served again. I blinked twice as the Yuna passed me the shuttle.
"Nice one" she congratulated me sweetly.
"What's the score Yunie?" Rikku put her one-sided game with Paine on hold.
"We're tied by one point each, why?" Yuna lowered her racket.
"Well…Could me and Paine play doubles with you? Paine is kind of winning our game…" Rikku rubbed the back of her head nervously.
"Yup!" Yuna jumped on the spot, Rikku let out a cheer while Paine just sighed. "On one condition…" Yuna caught Rikku's attention "I get to be his partner!" The smile on Rikku's face went instantly.
Paine dragged Rikku to the other side of court, before she could complain. The game had sort of been balanced now, Paine was best in the class while Yuna was second. Rikku and I were about the same ability level, but this was going to be no easy game. As I had only scored against Yuna, by a stroke of luck. Five minutes to go, both teams tied at 20 points each, we both needed this point. Yuna was serving – which was good because she always gets it in. Rikku panicked but managed to hit it. Yuna knocked it close to the net, Paine set it high and I finished my smashing it and scoring our point.
"Don't screw up Rikku" Paine pointed a finger at Rikku.
"Hey, I got this thing" Rikku gave her racket a twirl but dropped it.
Yuna waited for Rikku to get ready before serving to Paine, and something every rare happened…Paine made a mistake. It was the clink of metal that gave it away, the shuttle had hit of the metal rim of Paine's racket. The shuttle went sky-high.
"I got it!" Yuna and I both called.
We knocked into each other and fell over. It wouldn't have been bad either, I mean Tidus and Rikku do something embarrassing every lesson. But…Yuna had turned on running into me and, well…we sorta ended up kissing and Yuna lying on top of me. I blushed a deep shade of crimson and so had Yuna. She just lay there on top of me stunned, and I lay there beneath her stunned as well. Our lips broke, Yuna didn't get off of me as fast as I'd expected. Yuna dusted herself off and I stood up
"Um…" she began but fell to silence, she blushed even more.
"Ahhh…Yeah…um…" I fell to silence as well, luckily the bell went so I went to get changed, and away from the embarrassment.
"So…what happened between you and Yuna?"
"Nothing…" I tried to avoid Gippal's question
"That's not what me and Christie saw" Baralai had a grin on his face
"What did you see! Tell me!!" Brother asked loudly
"What did he say?!" Tidus shouted over Brother, he was making fun of him but Brother didn't notice.
"Gippal! Fryd yna drao dymgeha ypuid? (What are they talking about?)"
"How the heck should I know Brother, it's bad enough we have art next…" Gippal was busy tying his laces
"I thought you liked art, ya?"
"Not when Dona and her cronies are there…"Gippal sighed heavily he had nothing else to change into "I'm waiting for the rest of you guys" and so he did.
Art had gone from usually good, to down right bad. Why? Well everyone had to draw Dona, to bad she didn't know what we were drawing.
"Pst Max" I turned to Tidus who showed me his picture, he'd drawn a huge beard and a monocle on Dona. I fought my laughter back to a snigger, I showed him mine and he chuckled like a madman. Yuna was caught up in what she was doing, curious I leaned over to see what she was drawing. She was drawing a Moogle, it's blushed cheeks and fluffy fur all to familiar.
"Like it?" I nearly fell from my stool at the sound of Yuna's voice.
"Its great Yuna…but aren't we suppose to be drawing 'You know who'?" Yuna just smiled sweetly and touched up the Moogles cheeks.
"Well you aren't drawing her!" she giggled and I felt myself blush
"…Good point" I turned to a clean page.
"Okay Dona, that will be all. Would anyone else want to go next?" Tina's hand shot up. But…
"I would!" Yuna called and Elma beckoned her down.
Rikku seemed excited as Yuna took a seat on the stool at the front, she had always wanted to draw Yuna but had never got the chance. Yuna was doing what she was told, she was sitting straight and looking at the wall at the back. Even as I worked I felt myself blush more, I was having a small daydream of messing up the picture. Yuna wasn't happy. The minutes ticked by and Yuna sat as still as a statue, the classroom was full of the sound of scribbling.
"You can go and sit down now Yuna" Rikku let out a moan as Yuna went to sit down.
Elma was already looking around for someone else. Tidus and I covered our pictures
"Come on! Let's see them you two!" Paine smirked.
"Yeah, let's see them!" Yuna ripped my hands from the page.
In my option it wasn't good, I had never been good at drawing. But straight away Yuna pointed out, that the eyes were really good, Paine even agreed.
Tidus rubbed the back of his head, he had only drawn an outline, and Yuna didn't seem to mind.
"Hey Yunie!" Rikku was bouncing on the spot.
"What do ya think of mine?!" Rikku presented a stick person.
"Um…" Yuna was looking for the words.
"Jokes over Rikku…" Lulu looked sternly at her.
Rikku flipped the page over to her better drawing, it really was good…really really good. Everyone quickly took their seats, Elma was starting to look for the next victim.
"How about…You?" Christie blinked twice
"Me?" she pointed to herself, Elma nodded and patted the stool.
Christie sighed heavily and reluctantly, went up to the front of class. She took a seat on the stool and made herself comfy, all lot of the guys in class were drooling over her. Elma caught onto this.
"Christie? Have you not got…a more decent top to wear?" Christie glanced down at her black tank top.
It started to come to me, what a lot of the guys would be focusing on drawing. Paine was stifling back laughter her face was bright red, she looked glad to be wearing her usual leather outfit. Suddenly Cloud burst into the classroom
"Sorry miss! But I need to get everyone that's coming on the drama trip, to come to the hall!" Elma nodded and we all started to gather our stuff.
I picked up Christie's bag as I went and handed it to her.
"Saved by the drama teacher" Christie mussed taking her bag from me.
I had only noticed all the looks she was getting, we ran to catch up with the others.
