My POV:

I felt someone shaking me and I groaned, pulling my blanket over my head. "Come on Hikari! Let's go! We have to eat and go buy supplies!" Penelo exclaimed. I sighed and rubbed my eyes tiredly as I got up. I put on my glasses and got up. I grabbed my comb from my backpack and fixed my hair, then put on my boots. I put my jacket on and slung my backpack on.

"All right, let's go." Fran said as she headed out the door, followed by Deo. Penelo and I followed right behind them as we went downstairs.

"Morning!" I shouted happily to all the guys and Ashe in the dining room. We all exchanged greetings and I sat down between Vaan and Larsa.

Ashe asked us, "Sem hasn't come back yet?"

"It appears so." Balthier replied. Suddenly, chefs started appearing with our breakfast, which consisted of an array of choices, ranging from meat to salad to fish. I instantly went for the rice and fish. As I ate my breakfast, my phone started ringing from my backpack. Everyone's heads turned to me and I smiled sheepishly as I answered it.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Hello sweetie! How are you and Kai doing?" I heard my Mom's voice on my phone. I smiled.

"I'm good Mommy! Oniichan and I are doing fine." I then thought of something. "Mom…" I faked being worried.

"Yes dear?"

"I'm sorry, but I forgot to bring my charger, and my phone's almost out of battery. Try not to call me anymore, all right?"

My mom sighed, "All right honey. Be safe with your brother. I love you." Something struck my heart then.

"I love you too Mommy. Bye." I hung up and clutched the phone to my chest momentarily, before putting it back and continuing to eat in silence. I could feel everyone's eyes on me, but I put on a fake smile and looked up.

"What's up? Come on! Our food is getting cold!" I exclaimed as I kept eating food and drinking my water. After we all finished our breakfast, we decided to buy our own supplies. I announced, "I'll go alo-"

"With me." Vaan cut me off with a smile. I looked at him surprised, but let out a smile nonetheless as I grabbed my backpack and headed out with Vaan. As we walked down the streets of Rabanastre hand in hand, I couldn't help but wonder how did Vaan ever fall for me. "Let's go into this store!" Vaan shouted happily as we went in. I giggled as I bought some items and a lot of Potions. Vaan bought more bullets and Hi-Potions. When we were done buying our stuff, we just kinda walked around.

"Vaan!" I shouted in his ear.

"Yow….what's up?" he asked, rubbing his ear. I smiled cheekily as I kissed him on the lips and ran away. "W-wha? Huh? H-hey! Hikari! Come back!" he exclaimed. I turned around and stuck my tongue out at him.

"Bleh!" I teased as I ran away from him. I ran into an alley and leaned my back against the wall.

"Gotcha!" Vaan shouted from my right as I shrieked. He tackled me to the ground and chuckled as he started tickling.

"Hahahaha stop! Okay I give! Hahaha stop it!" I exclaimed as Vaan continued to tickle me. He smiled and his hands went to cup my face as he kissed my lips and helped me up. We walked hand in hand once again through the streets.

"Let's go visit Old Dalan." Vaan suggested. I nodded and we both went into Lowtown, a different smell instantly entering our noses. We went to Old Dalan's place and entered.

"Hi Old Dalan!" I greeted the old man with a wave.

"Hey Old Dalan." Vaan greeted as well. Old Dalan chuckled.

"Ah, hello there Vaan Ratsbane and Hikari. Ohohoho! What have we here? You are now a couple? I have not seen you for a very long time." We smiled sheepishly as Vaan held our hands up.

Vaan answered, "Yup! Hikari and I are now together. Sorry we haven't visited you in a while Old Dalan. We've been busy." Old Dalan laughed.

"Nonsense nonsense! Ahhh I have been growing too old." Old Dalan rambled. We chuckled and talked to him some more, before exiting his place and Lowtown. As we got back to the streets of Rabanastre, I smelled fresh air once again.

"Where to now on this date?" Vaan asked excitedly. I giggled.

"I thought we were just buying supplies." I replied with a smile. Vaan just held me tightly as we walked. Along the way, we bumped into Kytes.

Kytes exclaimed, "Wow! Vaan! Hikari! I haven't seen you guys in a long, long time! Don't worry! I've already seen Penelo! Wow! Are you guys together? How have you been?" Vaan and I chuckled.

"We've been good Kytes. And yes, we're together. How you holding up here?" Vaan questioned Kytes.

Kytes replied actively, "I've been doing great Vaan! My friends and I have been going practicing fighting in the sewers and stuff! Oh you should have seen some of the rats there! They were all so…" Kytes kept going on and on excitedly about his life. I listened intently with a smile on my face. After Kytes finally stopped, we parted ways with him and continued walking. Vaan and I had decided to go back to the palace. Once we got inside, we were greeted with the others, except for Penelo and Deo, who weren't back yet. Fran had told me something happened to them.

"Wait! WHAT happened!" I shouted to Jrew.

"The girls got into an argument with a group of other girls near Migelo's…." Jrew squeaked. Larsa looked at me worriedly as I growled and stormed back out of the palace and hurried to Migelo's place. I saw a group of girls, among them were Penelo and Deo.

"We're not looking to fight." I heard Deo say calmly.

"Hah! You're just a fucking pussy!" one snooty girl exclaimed in her high pitched voice. I snarled and pushed a few girls out of the way.

"The fuck you say?" I asked them rudely as I crossed my arms. This girl giggled.

"Hahahaha! Look who it is! The leader of this skank group." I scoffed.

"Look who's talking!" I shouted back.

"You're just jealous!" the girl exclaimed.

I smirked, "Of what? Your sluttiness? Sorry hoe. I don't roll that way. And hey. You suck dick with that mouth?" A crowd had formed around us, and some teenage boys went "OOOOOHHHH."

"Hah! I know you do!" this bitch shouted. I let out a low laugh.

"Bitch please! At least I'm not a motherfucking whore who sells herself off the streets and makes shitty comebacks like you do." I retorted.

"Burn!" some random guy shouted. The girl looked shocked and speechless.

"W-well….I uh…." after stuttering, the bitch ran away crying with her little pack of slutty hoes.

"Woo! Go Hikari!" Penelo shouted.

"I thank you. You didn't need to help us though." Deo said, but I saw a faint smile on her face. The crowd dispersed as the girls and I made it back to the palace. Basch had told us that we would leave first thing in the morning. I asked him about Sem, and Basch replied that we would see tomorrow if he comes back or not. The girls and I went to sleep for the next day.
