Between Guardian and Thief~
A/N & Disclaimer:: I am in LURV with TidusXRikku o_o;;. Don't ask why, I just seem to lyk pairings that are just different to the story line although I don't mind Tidus/Yuna at all. But it's just SO obvious, yanno. It's lyk perfect for them to be together and I don't lyk that "perfect" kind of thing. And I got a lot of these ideas from this oda TidusXRikku fanfic written by Demon Eyes. It's so cooL! Anywayz, I don't own FFX.
She woke up. Was that a dream? Tidus leaving? He was a dream of the fayth. They had just defeated Sin without the Final Aeon. No. It couldn't have been. It was all to quickly, too unnatural.
She looked around and saw Tidus lying down close to the fire. It was just a dream. Besides.
It was only yesterday that she saw them. Those two kissing in the pond under the moonlight, ignoring everything else in the world, and everyone there was. They were late that day to go back to the inn. She had to go find them. And there they were.
And it was a moment probably too good for them. 'Just let them be.' She told herself repeatedly over and over. 'They're a perfect couple. A Summoner and her Guardian.' But in the end she'd always end up crying in her sleep. She found him first. She loved him first.
But he loved Yuna first.
It was extremely cold in the temple they had finally arrived at. Wakka was the first to discover a cave that they could sleep in for the night in the cold Baaj Temple. This was where she and Tidus had first met. She and her Al Bhed allies saved him from that giant creature.
But they were here anyways because the summoner, her cousin, the one she must guard, must obtain the horrifying aeon, Anima. That same dark creature that they all had to face against. It and Seymour altogether. They had just arrived, and everyone agreed that Wakka, Tidus, and she would search tomorrow in the depths to see if they could find any openings to that aeon temple.
For now, they had to stay in here.
The thief sighed taking off her hair accessories, placing them aside as her locks of sunny, golden hair tumbled against her shoulders. Everyone was asleep, except for her. It was her turn to keep guard. Rikku snatched a bundle of plants and dropped it in the fire to keep it burning. Everyone depended on that right now. It was just so damn cold in this place.
Sitting there watching the fire just made her think. Why. Why had she wanted to become Yuna's guardian in the first place? Was it because of Tidus also? Everything was about him. Everything was about Tidus that it almost made her sick as well. He was just so likeable. His sandy blonde hair, his positive, cheery attitude. He always looked on the bright side of things like Yuna did. Like she did too.
"Damn." She whispered to herself. "I lose everything. I lost Home, I lost everyone I knew back at Home, and now I lost Tidus. I hate this." She sulked. "I HATE THIS!"
She immediately covered her mouth looking around. Was that too loud? Did she wake everyone up?
He still heard snoring from Wakka and a low tone of breathing from Auron and Kimahri. Yuna and Lulu didn't make any sounds at all, and Tidus. Where was he anyways? She looked around for any signs of him.
"Hey Rikku."
"Huh?" she looked straight up to see him smiling back down at her. He sat next to her as he stared at the fire also. "Hi. Sorry, you just kind of made me wonder for a moment 'who was that?'."
"That's okay." He smiled. And silence settled in on their conversation.
She couldn't tell him now. The timing was perfect. But she was just too afraid. Just afraid.
"I saw you and Yuna..." okay, so that was a bad start to a friendly conversation. She saw them kissing. Woohoo. "Sorry. I was sent to look for you and Yunie."
"Uhh, that's alright. Really."
"No it isn't. I don't even know why I said that. Just forget it."
Tidus stole a glance at her for a moment. Her face glowed softly from the fire. And her hair was let down too. He had never seen her with her hair down before but he had to admit, she looked pretty. But her eyes were sad. They always seemed to have been sad even with her positive attitude and mind. It was as if she had carried a burden but didn't want to let go of it.
"Rikku, I..." he paused. "...don't love Yuna." Rikku's head immediately perked up. What the heck was he saying?
"What are you talking about?" she gave him an odd look. He just shook his head.
"I...just saw her crying. There was just some way. Some way I had to tell her she'd be alright. But I didn't know it would come out as that. I didn't want it to. But it just happened." He shook his head. His mind began stinging, making his head hurt. "It's bad. It's really bad because I don't love her. And I made her believe that I do."
"That...is really bad." Rikku admitted. She wouldn't know if she were to sigh in relief or gasp in horror. Here, Tidus was all mushy a few days ago with Yuna and here he was saying he didn't love her at all yet he kissed her and led her to believe he felt all of that. "So. What are you going to do about it?"
"I don't know. I don't know what to say. I don't want to her to cry. She...already has enough burdens to carry. I don't want to be an extra pound added."
"Tell her, Tidus." Rikku sighed. It was for the best. He trusted her the most though. But what could a thief like her do? She would be getting in the way of their relationship if she did anything. She wanted to just embrace him and tell him that she loved him.
But what if Tidus accidentally led her like he led Yuna? Then she knew, she would be sad also.
"I don't know." He replied. His beautiful golden hair waved as he shook his head. "I don't want to say it. Not now." His tanned face glowed in front of the burning embers that licked against the surface of the misted plants.
She loved him so much. She loved him that much, but she couldn't say it. Not yet.
"Anyways, about finding that aeon temple tomorrow." She said quickly changing the subject. "Me and Wakka tried measuring the water and it seemed really deep. And it was completely freezing. And I think I got the cold. Do you and Wakka wanna go first and maybe see until I get better?"
"Uhh okay, I guess." Tidus said, a little disappointed she had quickly changed the subject. "Rikku." She looked up at him. Her sparkling green eyes that gave out a sense of happiness within him that filled his heart completely every time he gazed at them. She always made him happy. No matter what happened. He never had to worry about the bad side to things because she was always there to support him as well.
'Why the heck am I thinking about her all the sudden? I mean, Yuna is a wonderful girl and all but, Rikku. I don't know. Something about her though...' His mouth curved into a genuine grin.
"Whoa. You just smiled all the sudden? It's kinda creepy." She remarked with a laugh. Tidus let out a laugh as well.
'What part of Yuna do I not like? She's beautiful, cheery, and respectful as well. And Rikku is pretty, cheery, and respectful also but she is so much different from Yuna although they both have the same personalities.'
"ARRG. Why am I thinking about this?!?!" His hands held his head as he groaned in frustration.
"Thinking about what?"
"WHA? Nothing at all!" Tidus recovered quickly, his heart fluttered and his face glowed with a touch of crimson. 'Damn, I forgot she was there. I almost got a heart attack.' "Hey, I'll stay guard for the rest of the night. Get some sleep, okay?"
Rikku's eyes widened with surprise.
"Seriously?" she sprung up, full of energy as usual. Tidus nodded.
"Yeah. I have to think about...stuff."
"...I see." She went over to her sleeping bag and sat down. "Good night, Tidus." She whispered before dreaming again. Back to that same awful dream. That he'd leave. Disappear.
'Come to think about it, maybe I shouldn't have slept. I wanna talk to Tidus more.' She thought achingly.
But before she could go on thinking about the cheery blitzball player.
A horrifying roar screeched through the dome.
