Chapter 16

Hey readers! I'm so sorry it took me so long to get this chapter out…My mother got rid of my computer because she said I was on it too much. Now I can only write my stories at my dads house but its ok this stories almost over anyway.

And since my internet is gone I have a new email address and no possible way to check my mail, so a lot of reviews and emails I haven't gotten if it's really important please resend them to me at the email address on my profile thank you all!


Yuna and Tidus walked sweetly out of the hallway towards where their friends were waiting. Yuna had a huge smile plastered on her beautiful features . Tidus wore a confused yet happy expression on his tanned face, he didn't understand any of what had happened and it looked as if Yuna wasn't going to tell him.

Walking into the waiting room Yuna noticed Baralai and Paine weren't anywhere in sight.

"Hmmm…where could they be?" She asked herself out-loud. Tidus looked at her strangely wondering what she was thinking about.

"Where are who?" he asked scanning the area.

"Paine and Baralai they're not here…" she trailed, oblivious to the fact that Tidus wasn't paying attention to her at all.

"Maybe they went to get something to eat." He said placing his hand on his stomach. Yuna's stomach growled at the word 'eat' and she decided that maybe they woulddo the same. Grinning almost evilly Yuna pulled Tidus along as she ran out of the hospital.

"Hey where are we going?" Tidus asked trying to keep up with his girlfriend.

"To eat I'm starving!" she exclaimed. Tidus laughed halfheartedly. Tidus stopped causing Yuna to fall beck into his arms. She looked stunned up at her smiling lover. Tidus laughed placing her back onto her feet.

"Ok let's go…but no running, I'm not in the best shape I used to be." Yuna giggled and guided the two to a nearby restaurant.

As the two entered, Yuna gazed around at their surroundings, her eyes fell upon a white haired male and a grayed haired female. The two were giggling happily and seemed to be holding hands under the taple clueless to the fact that the whole world could see their entwined fingers. The male leaned in and pecked the woman on the lips. Yuna blushed as she caught a small glimpse of what the two were doing.

Tidus could tell something was up with Yuna and he wanted to know exactly what it was. As he slowly looked where Yuna had previously gazed upon he noticed the same thing she had.

"Whoa…" Yuna looked up at Tidus and she had to stifle a giggle.

"My thoughts exactly…" she said as a waitress sent them to a table. They walked silently to the nearby table and as Tidus pulled the chair out for Yuna to sit in he noticed her eyes never shifted from the overly flirty couple.

"Looks like loves in the air" Tidus said sitting across from Yuna.

"Yeah…" she whispered barely audible. Tidus placed his hands around hers sensing her distraught.

"Yuna what's wrong? Want to talk about it" he asked over the table. Yuna pulled his hands up to her face holding them carefully over her lips.

"Everything's changing…everyone's changing. Everyone is happy and the calm is finally here for good." Yuna kissed his hands as salty tears trailed down her rosy cheeks.

"And what's so wrong with that?" he asked as he wiped the tears away with his thumb.

"All my life I never thought things would be this way…I always pictured death…the farplane and the countless of lives being lost at the fault of sin. Now I can't even picture what the world is going to be like with out sin and what the future will hold, I guess I kind of underestimated my own strength and my own life." Placing her hand over Tidus' Yuna continued.

"I couldn't have done any of it without you…when Spira went dark you were my sun to light it back up again…and even though it may sound hard to believe to some people I knew you were always there even though I couldn't see you." Tidus smiled and kissed her passionately. Pulling away Tidus looked into her eyes and spoke.

"It's not hard to believe…that night in Macalania I did say always"

Paine giggled fondly at another of Baralai's stupid jokes. After the battle they had talked, they had decided to get a bite to eat after Yuna and Tidus had walked into the hallway towards Rikku's hospital room.

So there they sat smiling like a teenage couple, this stunned Paine because she had never had a boyfriend like the normal 15-16 year old girls she grew up around did. She felt strange yet happy when she was around Baralai and she even felt good when he would try to impress her. That talked about the strangest things and Baralai would steal kisses a couple of times but she was letting him. He had finally gotten the nerve to ask her out on an official date, and was delighted to hear her response of 'yes'. He never thought the usually stoic woman could lighten up and laugh like she had no care in the world, but Baralai like it that way.

"I've never seen you laugh like that" Baralai told her after he finished telling a couple of knock-knock jokes.

"We'll lets just say I'm not laughing because your jokes are funny, I'm laughing because of how stupid they are." She said looking at the man before her.

"Gee, that's so kind of you at say." He said sarcastically. Paine smiled "I know". Baralai took a serious tone looking out a nearby window. Millions of things ran trough the praetors mind.

"The calms here…what are you planning to do?" he asked, Paine sat back into her chair.

"I dunno…where ever life takes me I guess. What about you?" she asked.

"I'm just gonna try not to get possessed by a 1000 year old Blitzer" the two laughed drifting from one topic to another.

Rikku and Gippal sat together talking about old times, playing childish games from time to time. They were just enjoying each other's company.

"Rikku…?" Gippal asked suddenly.

"Hmmm?" she asked as she tried to sit up. Gippal helped her and the two looked at each other.

"I want you to come back to the Djose temple with me…"
