Chapter 2
Lulu came to pick up the baby. "Yuna, thank you so much."
Y: "Did ya'll have a good time?"
Lulu: "The best," she said smiling, and holding her baby.
Lulu stared at the child, "isn't he beautiful, it's hard to think that he came from me, isn't it?"
Y: "He looks just like you." She said admirably.
Lulu: "Hmm, Yuna, I've seen that look before, they are a lot of hard work, but every moment is worth it. Just be sure before deciding."
Y: "Ok, Lulu. Paine and I are going for a swim, could you let Rikku know when she wakes up, she stayed up looking after the baby."
Lulu: "Oh really," she smiled, "yes, I'll let her know."
-------------------------------------------------------------
Baralai walked into Besaid, This is such a cozy town, he thought to himself, and admired the temple as he walked toward it.
I wonder if I'll find her here. It's been so long, I was surprised she didn't visit again. When I saw her with Yuna, I remembered her and she seemed to be just as angry as I was. And still looking for answers.
"I wonder what she will think when she sees me now, last time she hardly even looked at me." He thought to himself. Maybe it wasn't wise to come here. He began to turn out of the village, when,
"BARALAI!!" A young and hyper voice, that could only belong to Rikku. He couldn't help but to smile, as he turned to see her.
"Hey Baralai, what are you doing? Paine & Yuna went to the beach, let's go."
"Oh, Okay" He followed the hyper girl as she headed to the beach. When he got there, he saw the open sea, he couldn't help but to admire, "Wow, this is so pretty", the early morning sun hit the water just right and caused an amazing glitter, as he looked out onto the water he saw the other two splashing around. Paine and Yuna, really having a good time, Paine looked amazing as the water glistened along her body, he looked at her for several moments. Forgetting that Rikku was still standing with him.
R: "Oh, I see, you like HER. Hehe, I should've realized it when you showed up here."
"Oh, Rikku, I, I was just admiring the Sun Rise."
R: "Don't be silly, I know better, but anway, why not join us."
"Okay," he took off his shirt that had been hiding a few muscles.
R: "Oh, you've been hiding a nice bod under there" Rikku said smiling nudging her elbow at his muscles.
"Yeah, well, let's go."
They swam out to the other two, "Yuna! Paine!" Rikku Shouted, "I brought a friend."
They swam out to the other two.
Y: "Baralai, Welcome to Besaid, our humble home."
B: "Why thank you."
Paine looked at him with curiosity, his tanned face seemed to glow under the sun's light and his dark brown eyes glistened, she found herself wondering, why is he here, was he here to see Yuna, or me, or is there another reason, what if he did come to see Yuna. Paine felt her face growing warm, I'm blushing?, Then felt the water being splashed at her and found herself smiling, as she turned to return Rikku's splashes.
Baralai joined in, and splashed Paine, and the other two as well. She looks so amazing; He watched her as she was splashing Rikku, her red eyes glowing in the morning sun, her pale skin looked soft enough to touch, hmm... she'd probably kill me if she knew I was thinking such thoughts.
The went on there splashing spree for some time. Then Brother showed up and hopped in, followed by Buddy. Barkeep & Darling also came for a swim.
Yuna & Rikku got out of the water. And watched everyone, "Rikku, what do you think of Baralai, or do you know why he came?"
R: "Well, he has a crush on one of you. If there is another reason I dunno."
Baralai and Paine were still in the water, there were others around, but not that close, they were now just relaxing.
"Baralai, are you having fun?"
"Fun? Yes, it's been so long, I always seem to fun, when you're around, Paine."
Paine, looked at him, "Really?," she smiled, "I've wondered how you were doing."
"I want to see you again Paine, I like to have fun with you around."
Paine smiled, then laughed, "This is silly, I think you're getting too silly."
He smiled back, "Do you mind, if I'm a little silly? He swam over to her, and looked into her bright red eyes.
Paine looked back, "No, I don't mind, I guess we all need a little silly", she said as he moved in closing out any distance that was between them. He reached over her shoulders and pulled her close, and kissed her.
Rikku & Yuna smiled on the beach, Y: "Well, it's clear who his crush is."
Y: "Touche." The two giggled.
Rikku, "Oh, I wish I had a hunky guy too."
Yuna smiled and looked teasingly at her, "But I thought you already did."
R: "Don't be silly, that player. I bet he's kissed tons of girls, I don't want him." She said as she began to walk away from the beach, almost angry.
Y: "Perhaps I shouldn't have brought him up." She said to herself.
She followed Rikku back to town.
"Rikku, wait, I uh, "
Rikku turned around and faced Yuna, the sun light hitting her glowing skin and the water glistening off of her from the swim.
"Yuna, I'm over him, ok." She said, blushing.
Y: "Sure Rikku, I'm sorry. Let's go see Lulu."
R: "Sure, I want to see the baby."

Back on the beach.
"Paine, would you like to come to the Temple of Bevelle to visit, again?"
P: "Yes, I would."
P: "Baralai, I, uh, stopped by one time and found you in your office, there were pictures there. Are they yours?"
"Oh, you mean the one's of the guardians? They were left by Seymour, I was looking through them. Did you find something in one of them?"
Paine felt so dumb, as she remembered back, the pics had Yuna but also the other's there, Kimahri, Rikku, & another male she did not recognize. But, the focus was always Yuna. She remembered a story Rikku had once told her about Yuna marrying Seymour in an attempt to Send him. He must of been obsessed with Yuna.
"Paine, your blushing. ." She looked up and looked guilty, "Oh, so you were jealous, even then." Paine's eyes grew wide. "So that's why you didn't visit. I've missed you." He reached over, and kissed her again.
P: "I'm sorry I was jealous over something so silly."
"Hey, we all need some silly, right?" He smiled at her.
Lulu came to pick up the baby. "Yuna, thank you so much."
Y: "Did ya'll have a good time?"
Lulu: "The best," she said smiling, and holding her baby.
Lulu stared at the child, "isn't he beautiful, it's hard to think that he came from me, isn't it?"
