Lulu was standing above the staircase, upon the outskirt of the hall, arms crossed her chest. She saw Wakka, Yuna and Tidus walking up the stairs. "You did hear the news, did you not, Yuna?"
Yuna's eyes looked up at Lulu, a small nod following. "Yes, and we should go look for him!" As she looked around, her gaze found itself toward the center square. "That's where they said they saw him, so perhaps he's still there!"
Wakka, Lulu and Tidus nodded in agreement, quickly following Yuna as she began to run to the east.
---------------------
Auron, a little bit disgruntled by the food he received, sighed lightly to himself as he took a large bite out of a piece of toast. "-This- is food...?"
The group popped into the cafe, a small glare in Tidus' eyes as he looked around. If Auron -were- here, he'd have some damn explaining to do... "...Auron!"
Yuna, Wakka and Lulu's gazes all turned to Tidus' exclamation, and Yuna smiled warmly. "Sir Auron!" She ran over to him, and the other two followed, all performing the 'Praise be to Yevon' motion.
Auron looked up, his eyes narrowed a bit. He coughed slightly, standing up with a small grunt. His gaze flew over both Wakka and Lulu, then fell onto Yuna. "...Yuna."
Yuna bowed to him with her smile still, and looked up at him afterward. "It is an honor, Sir Auron. What are you doing back here in Spira?"
Auron paused slightly as he noticed Tidus standing away in the corner. 'I knew he'd be here...' "I came back to find you. I heard about your pilgrimage."
Lulu and Wakka both looked at one another, then to Auron. Wakka blinked a few times, then asked, "But Sir Auron, we thought you had left Spira..?"
The old man shook his head with a small chuckle. "Couldn't really ever leave. I stayed around."
Tidus sighed a bit and stormed outside, his thoughts confusing him. Why was Auron here, and not where Tidus himself ended up? Did Auron even know what was happening? He shook his head and groaned softly, then sat down outside next to a few crates.
Yuna turned to the door after Tidus ran out, and she looked around for a minute. "I am going to go see if he's alright..."
"...No, Yuna. Let me do it.." Auron stated, putting a hand on her shoulder. "It's my fault he stormed out...I will return in a moment." He walked out of the cafe, looking around for Tidus. After finding him kicking a crate with a bit of anger, he chuckled a bit to himself. "Angry?"
Tidus peered upward, his eyes narrowing slightly. "It's -your- fault that I'm here you know."
Auron sighed a bit and then leaned against one of the crates. "...I know."
Tidus sighed heavily, looking down at the ground. "I was so scared when I first got here, you know? I thought you had fallen somewhere with me. Finding I was wrong, I was told about where I was by a complete stranger. Scared even more out of my wits I found I was over a THOUSAND YEARS away from my home, friends and the ones I cared about. Because of -you-, I had to get washed up on a shore. Because of -you-...God I sound whiney..." He groaned angrily and hit the crate behind him with a fist.
"Are you a guardian now?" Auron's question was random, but it made some sense.
"...Yes, in fact I am."
'Good to see he follows in the right path of his Dad's qualities...' Auron smiled very lightly to himself, then looked to Tidus.
"Is that a problem or something?" Tidus asked, a bit sarcastic of a tone in his voice.
Auron shook his head for a moment and sighed. "I...Well, you've seemed to have made friends here."
"That's not the point."
"Then what is?"
"The fact that without you, I was lost and confused! I had no idea if I was even really myself! I found some people who helped me, and I decided to help them in return."
"...That's nice."
The blonde haired boy coughed a bit, looking up to Auron. "You owe me an apology."
"...I suppose I do."
Tidus sat there, gazing at Auron yet. "...Well?"
Auron paused for a minute, then looked down. "...I'm sorry."
Wakka walked up from beside the cafe's wall, looking over at Tidus, then Auron. "Ah, excuse me Sir Auron, Tidus...But we need to get going."
Tidus looked up to Wakka, a small smile appearing on his face as he stood up and walked over to him. "Fine with me." He turned his gaze to Auron. "Apology accepted..." He looked back to Wakka and then was about to hug him when he realized that they hadn't come out to the group yet, and they both looked at Auron.
"You two are more obvious than...Well, whatever. I won't say anything." Auron smirked lightly to himself and then walked back into the cafe, leaving a very dazed Wakka and Tidus behind.
"Did he...?" Wakka blinked, scratching his head.
"I think he did..." Tidus smiled and wrapped his arms around his love's waist, planting a soft kiss on the warm, inviting lips. Wakka happily obliged, kissing back as he groped the boy's butt gently.
"You...Can't keep your hands of me, can ya?" Tidus winked, pulling away as he broke the kiss, removing his arms from Wakka's waist. "We should go now."
Wakka nodded and with a sly slap on Tidus' butt, he ran into the cafe, a slightly embarrassed Tidus following.
