"Yuna?" The voice called again. Yuna had never heard that voice before, but it seemed oddly familiar. Yuna was just about to go to sleep with Tidus, but then she heard the voice. The lady walked in the room, but it was just the nurse. "Yuna? Do you need lunch?" The nurse asked. "Oh, no thank you, I just had some." Yuna said. She was disappointed, she thought it was her mother, it sounded so much like her, but it was just the nurse.

The nurse simply nodded, and walked out of the room. "Yuna? Are you okay?" Tidus asked, looking at her. "Yeah, I'm fine, it's just that she sounded so familiar." Yuna said. Both of them had fallen asleep, both tired from their friends' visit.

1 Week Later.

"Come on Yuna, lets go!" Tidus said, very impatient. "I'm coming!" Yuna said. Yuna came out of the showers, fully dressed and ready to go. "Finally! We're going home!" Yuna said happily. "Yeah, I know." Tidus said, "I'm so glad, we're leaving." Tidus and Yuna were holding hands, they took the elevator to the bottom floor, and left. "How will we get home anyways?" Yuna asked. "That's easy, remember when Lulu, Wakka, Rikku, and Gippal visited us a week ago?" Tidus said. "Yeah, why?" Yuna asked, completely confused. "Well, they brought my car here so we could drive home without having to take a taxi.

"Well, thats good." Yuna said, she was kind of sad, because she really enjoyed sleeping with Tidus every night. He made her feel so safe. But that time was gone. "Well, let's drop you off first then!" Tidus hit the accelerator, and they went speeding off to 5211, Summoner Blvd.

"Here, I'll help you take you're things inside okay?" Tidus said. "Okay, sure, thanks." Yuna said, slightly smiling. When Tidus got to the front door, he heard Yuna ask, "Tidus, could I-I stay with y-you for a couple n-nights?" Yuna asked shyly. She was so nervous, because she just wanted to be with Tidus a couple more nights. Tidus, completely taken aback by the question, replied, "Uhh, sure. But why?" Tidus asked. 'not that i'm complaining.' He said in his thoughts.

"I just, want to." Yuna said, not wanting to reveal her reason. She was really shy, she just stared at her feet. "I just feel safer." Yuna continued.

"WHOA!" Tidus said, he was really happy at her remark, but he was also kind of shocked. "Okay, well then tell your parents that you're spending the night at Rikku's, you know they would be completely freaked out if you were staying at a guy's house." Tidus laughed.

'Oh no, why did he have to say 'parents'?' Yuna felt a tear down her cheek. Tidus noticed her tears, and he wiped them away. "What's wrong, Yuna?" Tidus asked. Then he realized, he said 'parents'. He remembered that she had left them a year ago and she was living with an old couple. 'Oh, great, what did I get myself into!?' Tidus asked himself.

Tidus walked towards Yuna, dropping her stuff gently on the ground. Yuna felt his presence behind her. She just turned around, trying to smile, but it didn't work, she just completely broke down, she was always so vulnerable, she had such a terrible life before.

Tidus hugged her, so gently but caring at the same time. He rubbed her back, and whispered to her "Come in the car, Yuna, I need to tell you something on the way to my place." But Yuna asked, "But what about my guardians?". "Nah, we'll tell 'em later." Tidus said with a smile, but he knew that he wouldn't be able to keep that for long, for what he was going to tell her, it would require all of his courage.

They were on the road, and both of them were silent, but then Tidus broke the silence. "Yuna, don't feel bad, Yuna, at least your parents are still out there.R-Rikku and m-my M-M-Mom is d-d-d-d-dead. Our d-dad, Jecht, was so d-drunk that the Child Agency had to take u-us away f-from him. S-so if you t-think you got it b-bad, t-try livin' in my p-position." Tidus had stuttered a lot, because he had never revealed his feelings to anyone before. He had some tears running down his face, but he didn't want to look like a fool in front of Yuna.

"I'm sorry, its just that I really-" Tidus was stopped by Yuna.

"It's okay, I understand." Yuna said. "Its funny, what I said to myself on the day that I left Bevelle, I said I didn't need anyone," Yuna turned to Tidus, "but I guess I do." Yuna smiled.

Rikku/Tidus' Place 4:30 P.M.

Tidus and Yuna walked in the house, the lights were shut off. "Hmm. Rikku must be at the mall with Lulu." Tidus said as he flicked on the light. "Good ol' home." Tidus said happily. "I missed this place." Tidus smiled. It was a two story apartment, and the Child Agency paid 3/4 of the monthly rent.

"It's nice." Yuna smiled.

"Hope you like it here!" Tidus said happily.

"So I'll go put your stuff in Rikku's bedroom and I'll take out the inflatable matress." Tidus said.

"Great!" Yuna said, even though she didn't on plan on sleeping there.

"Well, we're not gonna start cookin' dinner 'til 5:30, so what do you wanna do?" Tidus asked.

'Lay in your arms.' Yuna muttered under her breath.

"What?" Tidus asked.

"Oh, nothing." Yuna said, she blushed a little bit.

"You wanna go to a club tonite?" Tidus asked.

"Uhh, sure." Yuna said nervously.

"Lenne, Shuyin, Wakka, Lulu, Rikku, and Gippal are coming too." Tidus added. Tidus noticed that Yuna was slightly nervous, had she ever been to a club before?

"Yuna, are you okay?" Tidus asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Yuna lied. She had never been to a club before, she heard rumors about clubs, like some people have been literally taken out of a bar and raped, and some other things even worse.

"We don't have to go." Tidus said concerningly.

"No, we can go, I'm just a little n-nervous." Yuna said.

"Just stay close and you'll be fine." Tidus said.

"No problem!" Yuna said giggling and smiling.

"Okay! We'll just cook dinner, and we'll be on our way!" Tidus slightly yelled joyously and held a thumbs up.

"Yes sir!" Yuna saluted.

"Rikku!" Yuna smiled, as she heard the door opening.

Tidus put his finger on her lips, "Shhhh. Come on." Tidus said. He led Yuna in Rikku's room."

"I guess another night eating frozen dinners." Rikku sighed, she really missed her brother and her best friend. She went upstairs in her bedroom and...

"BOO!" Yuna and Tidus yelled. It surprised Rikku so much that she fell on the ground. "YUNIE! TIDUS!" Rikku got up and bear hugged them. Rikku was small but she had a strong grip. "Rikku, I need to breath." Tidus said.

"Oh, sorry." Rikku blushed. "Yuna's staying a couple nights aight?" Tidus asked. "Sure! Yunie, we can watch the Hot Chick!" Rikku jumped up and down in joy. "I'm so glad that you're home! Now we can go to Club Blitz tonite!" Rikku jumped up and down holding Yuna's hands.

"Come on downstairs," Tidus said cheerfully, "lets start making a REAL meal tonite!" Tidus laughed.

Rikku, Yuna, and Tidus were all in the kitchen. Yuna was grating the permesan cheese, Rikku was making some manicotti noodles, ((manicotti noodles look like extremely huge macaroni noodles, except straight.)) and Tidus was making the spaghetti sauce.

"Yum! I just love manicotti!" Rikku said happily. "It's the first REAL meal I've had in a week." Rikku added. "What IS manicotti anyways?" Yuna asked.

"Well, when we're done we'll tell you." Tidus said. "Aww, come on, Rikku? What is manicotti?" Yuna asked. "You'll see Yunie." Rikku said. It took them about 45 minutes to make the manicotti, and the room smelt like spaghetti.

"Mmmm, this is really good!" Yuna said. Rikku and Tidus were just chomping down on their food, they didn't have time to answer.

'Wow, I guess those two really are related' Yuna thought to herself, laughing, watching the brother and sister eating like carnivorous beasts.

Eventually, everyone was done eating, and the kitchen was clean. "Well we're not leaving for the club for another hour, so you two can get dressed and that stuff." Tidus said. Rikku and Yuna just nodded. Tidus went up to his room and started to undress. He took off his shirt revealing his muscular body. "Tidus, I--" Yuna went in Tidus' room, seeing her boyfriend's chest. 'Oh my god, he's hot! I mean, burning!' Yuna thought. "What, Yuna?" Tidus asked. "I.. uh... uh..." Yuna was freaking out, she didn't know what to say, all she could say was that Tidus was hot. Tidus took off his pants, showing his red silk boxers. Yuna was extremely speechless. Tidus put on his black pants and a red silk button up shirt. "Well?" Tidus asked, confused. Yuna snapped out of dream-land, he was dressed so now she would be able to talk to him without stuttering uncontrollably. "Uh, never mind." Yuna blushed, and went out of the room.

"Rikku! Tidus' hot!" Yuna said. "Ew! Ew! Ew! I don't judge my own family!" Rikku said. Yuna's face was still red as ever. She never knew that she was dating a really muscular guy, but how couldn't she have known, with all the girls going crazy for him.

Yuna and Rikku were getting dressed for the night. Rikku lent Yuna some clothes for the club. Rikku was wearing a black ruffled miniskirt and a fancy white 'japanese school girl' top. Rikku also had on a tie, and her hair was let down and crimped.

Yuna was wearing Rikku's red dress, it was a little tight and it didn't stretch, but it fit Yuna's curves perfectly. Yuna had on a toe ring and her toe nails and finger nails were gold. She had on her necklace that Tidus had given her, and she let ALL of her hair down, including the hair in her ponytail, that went all the way down to her feet. It was just as beautiful and silky as the rest of her hair. Yuna put two golden dragon hair clips to make her hair look even more beautiful. She had some mascara on and she put on a crimson red lip stick. To finish off her outfit, she had golden sandals on, that had a 3 inch heel that had red flowers on them. Yuna also had a red flower on her hair.

Finally, after 35 minutes getting prepared, Rikku, Yuna, and Tidus were ready. They decided to walk, and pick up their friends on the way. They first picked up Gippal, Lulu, Wakka, Lenne, then Shuyin. Each of which complimented Yuna on her outfit. Out of the eight of them, Yuna looked the best.

"It's pretty out tonight, isn't it?" Yuna said to Tidus. "Yeah, it is." Tidus looked out at the stars, but no star could compare to Yuna's mismatched eyes. Yuna noticed Tidus looking at her, so both of them stopped, Yuna's eyes reflected the stars, making them so beautiful. Yuna blushed from embarassment, but she didn't care, she just wanted to be with him, but they weren't even at the club yet.

"Well, come on!" Yuna grabbed Tidus' hand. "We have a club to go to!" Yuna smiled. Tidus followed Yuna. They were finally at Club Blitz. The line wasn't too long, but there definitely WAS a line. Lenne and Shuyin have never been to a club before either, so both of them were clueless.

They waited for 15 minutes in the line, but finally they were able to enter Club Blitz. When Yuna saw the club, she stopped and stared in awe. There were people dancing, there were pool tables, there was a bar, and much more. Yuna was so amazed, it was her first club, and she was going to have as much fun as possible.

"C'mon guys! Let's go get a table, ya?" Wakka asked, holding hands with Lulu. They finally found a table, but they had to move two tables together to be able to fit 8 people.

Rikku was sitting down, but she couldn't stay still, she was just humming and bouncing on her seat. She loved the song that was playing, but then she felt a finger tap on her shoulder. Rikku turned around, and she saw a drunk guy. He was really really skinny, and it looked like he had acne. He said, "Hey sexy, you wanna dance with me?". "Ew! No way!" Rikku replied, but the guy took her hand anyways and dragged her out to the dance floor.

"STOP IT! LEAVE ME ALONE YOU BASTARD!" Rikku screamed, but the guy wouldn't let go. She felt the guys grip loosen as she heard a punch in the face. She opened her eyes, and she saw Gippal holding him by the collar and punching him fitting in words between punches. "Don't *punch* even *punch* think *punch* about *punch* it *double punch*." Gippal said. The guy replied "Okay, okay! I'll stop! I'll leave! Just don't hurt me again!" The guy ran off to the bar, muttering some curse words under his breath.

"Are you okay, Rikku?" Gippal asked concerningly.

"Now I am." Rikku said happily.

"Let's dance." Gippal said, grabbing Rikku's hand and leading her out to the dance floor. It was still playing Rikku's song, and both of them danced to the music, and they attracted a crowd.

Rikku and Gippal just ignored the crowd and danced away to the music, happy to be in eachothers arms.

"Come on, Lu, lets dance, ya?" Wakka asked.

"Sure." Lulu said happily. Lulu and Wakka too, were dancing, but they were slow-dancing.

"I'm glad you decided to come, Lu." Wakka said.

"It's actually kind of fun." Lulu said. "I knew you would have a great time, ya know?" Wakka said happily. Both of them danced the night away, frequent kisses here and there.

"Shuyin?" Lenne asked. Lenne was wearing a dress that cut off just below the knees with blue flowers on it. Lenne's hair was in a braid, except for her stray hair on her left.

"Yeah?" Shuyin said.

"We need to talk about something." Lenne said. She took his hands and led him outside on a bench.

"What, Lenne?" Shuyin asked worriedly.

"Do you ever miss Besaid?" Lenne asked. "The beach, where we always swam, the sand between our toes, just our peaceful little spot on the earth?" Lenne said.

"Yeah, I think about 'home' every waking minute, I miss it, not many things happened around there, but it was nice. But now, there's always something happening around here, I'm just not used to it." Shuyin said. "But we'll make it, as long as we have eachother, it'll be alright." Shuyin smiled.

"Yes, I guess so. Just you and me, we'll be okay." Lenne smiled. Both of them looked in eachothers eyes, happy to be with eachother, they missed their home in Besaid, but they wouldn't be able to live without eachother. They leaned closer, to meet eachothers loving and warm lips.

"Yuna?" Tidus asked. They weren't at the club anymore, but the local park, they were sitting on the ground looking at the majestic sphere pool. There were pyreflies gently surfacing from the water. The pool seemed so unworldly, just so majestic, luring anyone to it by its charm.

"Tidus?" Yuna asked.

"You want to take a swim?" Tidus asked.

"Sure!" Yuna said. Both of them entered the 'lake'. The water wasn't cold, but it was perfectly warm. Yuna enjoyed it, she was drifting of in the water, closing her eyes.

"You know, Its really beautiful out here." Yuna said, looking at Tidus, smiling. Tidus smiled back, "Yeah, you are." he said. Yuna was so happy, that she felt like crying, and she had a couple tears in her eyes. She felt a familiar pair of hands grab her shoulders gently. He said "Yuna", Yuna looked up to face Tidus. Tidus kissed Yuna, and both of them drifted off into the depths of the 'lake'.

They kissed underwater, smiling, and filled with joy. ((Think of the Suteki Da Ne scene in FFX, thats what happened.))
