Chapter Four: The Morning After
Aaliyah glanced up at the sky roof about her head. The sky was so calm and pretty. She felt so much more comfortable in his arms now that she told him the truth. She looked over at Tydus. He slept so peacefully, like an innocent child.
'Well one things for sure...he certainly isn't as innocent as he seems. Not after all of the naughty things they did last night.' She thought grinning to herself.
Her stomach growled loudly. She had forgotten that they hadn't even been able to eat anything, thanks to the stupid media.
'Curse those reporters. I bet that Cordon Bleu was going to be good too.' she thought get up and looking through Tydus' drawers for a shirt she could wear around the house.
She pulled out a gray shirt with "Zanarkand University" advertised on it. She pulled it over her naked body and walked downstairs to attempt to make breakfast.
She walked into the kitchen and opened up the windows all over the house to let in the salty sea air.
She then began searching the cabinets and refrigerators and freezers for anything to cook for breakfast. But all she could find were steaks; pork chops and diet bars, slim fast and the usual regular food a meat eater and a person trying to loose weight fast would have.
"Damn...they must not believe in breakfast. Normally I'd walk to the store but the media's probably waiting for Me." she muttered as Lori walked is accidentally knocking over a picture.
She picked it up and walked into the kitchen.
"So what were you two up to last night?" she asked as Aaliyah blushed.
"You heard?!" she yelled as the mother laughed.
"I heard everything. Aaliyah." she said as the young girl laughed.
"So...how come you guys don't eat breakfast?" Aaliyah asked changing the subject.
"As Jetch used to say: Breakfast is for weaklings, Lunch is for punks but Dinner is for a real man." Lori said as Aaliyah laughed.
"And who is this Jetch man?" she asked.
"He is err-was Tydus' father but he disappeared a couple of years ago." Lori said as Aaliyah quirked a brow.
"He just disappeared..." she said as her voice faded.
"Yeah. But whatever you do don't say anything about him to Tydus. For some unknown reason he hates his father. I could never get it out of him why he hated him so. His father gave him everything he ever wanted...even got him on the best team in Zanarkand. It was the same team Jecth played on. Boy did he think he was all that and more!" Lori said as Aaliyah caught Tydus eavesdropping at the staircase.
"Oh good morning Tydus." Lori said as Aaliyah smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Morning mom. Good morning to you." he said wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Hey Dava, how would you like to stay over for a couple of days. Tydus' second tournament game is tomorrow and the other mom's and I will need another hand to help with the party. Tydus could help you pack some clothes up today. Plus I'd love the company of another female." she said as Aaliyah let go of her embrace around Tydus.
"Really?!" she asked as Lori nodded.
"Cool! Hey Tydus do you have any gym shorts I could borrow for today? I don't wanna go out with my butt cheeks hanging out." she asked as Tydus smirked.
"Actually I'd like it a lot." he said as she hit him playfully.
"You pervert." she said as he ran upstairs to get some shorts.
"Here, use my bedroom slippers and I'll see you when you get back." Lori said as Aaliyah nodded as Tydus ran down the stairs in basically the same outfit and a pair of sandals with his car keys.
Aaliyah stepped into the shorts and slid on the gray fuzzy slippers.
"Bye." Aaliyah said as the two walked out of the door.
"Hold on...what's this?" Aaliyah asked picking up a rolled up magazine edition from the 'Zanarkand Times of Celebrity Gossip'
