Sorry, all my fans. (Yeah, all 3 of you.) I know it has been a long time
since I updated. I promise you I am not trying to gyp you out of a story.
It's just that between school, work, and homework, I barely have time to
catch my breath. I will do my best to frequently update the story, and post
the few remaining chapter I envision. (Maybe if I get lots of reviews I
will post more chapters than I had originally planned.)

Tidus looked up at the sky as he slowly walked back to the house Yuna and he shared. He took notice of the light wispy clouds and the pink-red sunset before him. 'That's what this place is famous for.' He thought to himself. 'Sunsets….'
The three years he had been back had been some of the happiest and saddest of his life.
Kimahri had been killed during a construction accident while helping Rikku and Cid rebuild Home. Tidus could not hold back his tears when he was told that when they had asked him if he needed anything as he died, his reply was "No need, Kimahri know Yuna safe with Tidus"
Lulu had finally gotten together 'officially' as a couple. It was their wedding, in fact, that he was returning from now. Yuna wanted some comfortable clothes to dance in, she had said. "This bridesmaid dress is just too bulky."
And then there was Zanarkand. The extinct city that never sleeps. Yuna had decided that she wanted to take Tidus up on that offer of a sunrise in Zanarkand. She had arranged for reconstruction to start 6 months ago. All of Spira was pitching in, even the Guados. "In a few more weeks, Yuna, my son, and I will be able to go to my home."
Hiran. He was almost 2 now. To think how many times he almost lost a parent was just too much. To se a smile on his face or hear him call for "Daddy, Bedtime story!" always brought a smile to Tidus' face. His hair had turned a platinum blond like his father's, and his eyes, one green and one blue.
Tidus snapped out of his thoughts as he reached the door of the house. He turned left down the "grand hallway" and entered the master bedroom. He grabbed the clothes Yuna had asked for and was out of the house, closing the door behind him.
Tidus looked ahead at the reception unfolding before him. It was going to be a fun evening. Tidus could see Wakka and Lulu standing by the cake. He could hear the music of the band intermittently, since electricity had yet to come to Besaid, the band was playing acoustically. He smiled as he heard some of the lyrics and immediately recognized the song.
"….Spring sweet rhythm dance in my head,
Slip into my lover's hands,
Kiss me oh won't you kiss me now,
And sleep I would inside your mouth.
Don't be us too shy,
Knowing, it's no big surprise,
That I will wait for you,
I will wait for no one but you.
Look please lover lay down,
Spend this time with me,
Together, share this smile, oh,
Lover Lay Down,
Walk with me, walk with you…."
Tidus smiled. He would recognize that song anywhere. It was the last song the band had played at he and Yuna's wedding. Yuna 's look when that song had started was something Tidus would never forget. It was as if that song had been written with them in mind and them in mind alone.
Deciding to join the rest of the party, Tidus jogged the rest of the way to the reception area. He gave the clothes and a kiss to Yuna and waited for her to change. She did so rather quickly, and still looked even more beautiful than the first time Tidus had seen her. He planted another kiss on Yuna's lips and they began to dance to their song.
So what do you think, folks? I will post more as soon as I get a chance to write it. (Probably tomorrow.) If you weren't able to tell by now, I am a big fan of The Dave Matthews Band. Disclaimer and such, I don't own their music. The song you read above is Lover Lay Down, And I recommend listening to it as you read this, it is a great song.
Have fun, and remember to dream, for dreams are what make reality.
