Vacation Relaxation



Disclaimer: You all know how the drill goes by now, but to prevent being sued and/or loosing my rights on fanfiction.net, I have to do this, I don't own anything that Squaresoft does, This includes FinalFantasy8 and all characters within. The new character, Josh, is mine, so is the GF Lunos

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~#300~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Morning, its about time you got up." Josh said, as Fujin blinked herself awake. She started to get up, but then settled back down on Josh's chest and sighed contentedly. "You need to get up, if I'm going to."

"Well, your not going to get up, so don't worry about it." Fujin said, leaning up long enough to kiss his chin before settling back down to rest on his torso.

"Fujin, it's only 90 minutes untill the escort arrives. We need to get ready."

"I want to stay here to day."

"I won't be here, you sure you want to be here all alone?" Josh said, pulling Fujin up to his arms and embracing her.

"Your going?"

"Of course, this is all in respects to me, so I have to go."

"I'm going to then."

"Good, now get up so I can shower."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~#302 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Seifer, wake up." Quistis was in the bathroom where she had showered and dressed, and was fixing her hair.

"It's to early to be awake."

"I've been getting ready for 2 hours, and I'm still not ready. You need to hurry."

Seifer looked at his watch. "I've got an hour still to get ready, thats plenty of time."

"Your such a guy........"

"Ofcourse I am, honey, If I wasn't you wouldn't be dating me, not would you?"

"Ok. That's gross Seifer, true, but really gross."

"Hey Quisty, Why aren't Squall and the others here?"

"Rinoa wouldn't come without Squall, Squall had to work, Raijin went fishing, and Zell is spending time in Balamb with his mom."

"Always on top of things, that's you." Seifer, said, sliding his arms around her waist.

"There will be plenty of time for that later, but now, you need to get ready."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~#305~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~

"Welcome back to the world of the living, Sefie darling." Irvine was completely ready to go, and had tried three times to wake Selphie up. He finally gave up when she punched him.

"What time is it?"

"08:45"

"WHAT!!!!! IRVY!!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME?"

"I tried three times......"

"Try four next time."

"Next time, don't punch me." Irvine rubbed his jaw, and then looked at Selphie. It hadn't hurt very much, it just hurt him emotionally because it had been her who punched him.

"Oh, Irvy, I'm so sorry."

"It's ok, I'll live."

"Oh, I'm sooo, sooo unbelivibly sorry."

"Sefie, it's ok, I'm fine, now get ready." Selphie was ready about the time that the escort arrived with seifer, Quistis, Josh, and Fujin. "You look great Sefie!" He gave her a peck on the cheek, and ran his finger along her neck. "Lets go, the others are waiting in the hall."

Selphie and Irvine stepped out, locked the door, and then followed everyone else to a breakfast with the president of Ester.

"Welcome friends. Today, you are all my guests. As such, you will all be treated to a day of pampering, with manicures, pedicures, steam- baths, and massases. These joys will be at your disposure, you can have all, or none, depending on your preferences. Now, lets eat." Laguna sat, only after all the ladies had been seated, then had the food brought out.

The entire group enjoyed their-selves, and came back to their rooms refressed around noon. After checking in, Quistis and Seifer left to eat at an Italian resturant they had seen, Irvine and Selphie left to look at wedding bands, and Josh and Fujin stayed in their room for a while.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~#300~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~

Josh walked in the room. "It's about time, I've been needing these for a while." He went to his suitcase and dug around while Fujin watched with growing curiosity. "Here." He pulled out a pair of sunglasses with holographic moons on the lenses. "Now I can look at your beauty without being blinded."

"That's so sweet........" Fujin walked over and acted like she was going to kiss him.she reached behind her and grabbed a bowl of creamed corn. She emptied it over his head. ".........corny, but sweet." She walked away as josh clicked his tounge in his mouth

"Hey Fujin. You forgot something.." As she turned, Josh pulled back a spoon full of Jello, and let loose. "Fire one!!!" It nailed fujin on the nose, then splatterd all over the rest of her face.

"Your going to regret that."

"Ladies first." The two grabbed desterts and appitisers and flung them at each other. Fujin pulled back a dinner roll and was about to heave it. "WAIT!!!!!"

"Pleading for mercy?"

"Almost, those rolls are rock-hard, don't throw them."

Fujin flipped the roll to test it, sure enough, it was hard. She was glad she didn't hit it with her fingernail(freshly manicured). "These arent as hard as the garden's rolls." That was all it took, the couple fell over with laughter at each other, and managed to smear desserts all over the bed spreads. Josh took Fujin in his arms and kissed her with a little bit of roughness.

When he pulled away, Fujin heard him speak under his breath, "Hey, whipped cream lips." She smiled, and pulled him back down to her embrace. "You know," Josh said after enjoying her embrace for a few minutes, "We need to get cleaned up, you take the shower first."

"Okay." She started towards the bathroom, slowly rmoving he shirt show that nothing showed until she was out of his sight. Once inside the safety of the 4 walls, Fujin slid down the wall, making a line, and sobbed silently. She hated Raven, she had never met her, but still hated her. Josh was so uncertain, so afraid, because of her. She had seen, twice, Josh's softer side, and hated raven for putting him through so much pain that he couldn't let himself out. To others, he acted normal, but she had seen a flare of joy in his heart, and she wanted to rekindle the flame. Now, she and josh had been dating for a month, and he had only opened up to her once. She loved him for having the courage to keep on living, but wanted to see him at his full potentual for happiness. He reminded her of squall, trying to carry his own burden, and it hurt her to see him strugle like that.

Fujin stood up, removed her clothes, and cleaned off the wall. She ran a bath, and sobbed herself silently to sleep in the warm ebrace of it's porcelin sides.
