Chapter Six
Party!
The sun was beginning to set when the other party guests arrived. Kimahri greeted Tidus with a big smile, and congratulated Rikku and Gippal. Lian and Ayde tagged along as well. They had grown much taller in the past three years. "Lian and Ayde hear much about your help on Lady Yuna's journey," Lian said in his rough voice.
Tidus grinned, "That was a while ago now wasn't it?"
Baralai, Nooj, LeBlanc, and her goons Ormi and Logos came as well. All four stopped in front of Tidus, jaws slightly dropped. LeBlanc let out a gasp. "It's Shuyin!" she cried.
"Shuyin?" Tidus raised an confused eyebrow.
Yuna bit on her lip. She hadn't told Tidus about Shuyin and Lenne yet. "No, this is Tidus."
"Tidus? The man Maechen spoke of three years ago?" Logos asked, his voice nasal as ever.
Paine nodded, "That's him."
They let out a relieved sigh. "The resemblance is uncanny isn't it?" Nooj stated.
"Fooled me," Baralai said, putting his hands up.
"Hmph, I wasn't fooled for a second," LeBlanc scoffed.
Aeris giggled quietly at LeBlanc.
"Who are you?" LeBlanc demanded.
"This is Aeris," Yuna said, "She helped bring back Tidus."
LeBlanc eyed Aeris then smirked. "Well I simply adore the way you dress!"
"Oh, thank you," Aeris smiled.
Nooj and Baralai both punched Gippal in the arm.
"Ouch! What was that for?" the Al Bhed exclaimed, rubbing the area he'd been hit.
"Congratulations. Didn't think you'd be the first of us to settle down," Baralai said.
"Didn't imagine you'd settle down at all," Nooj chuckled.
They looked around as a fast tempo song began to play. "Come on girls!" Rikku jumped up, "Let's dance!" She grabbed Aeris, Yuna, Paine, and LeBlanc, pulling them closer to the band.
"I'm not really very good at dancing though!" cried Aeris as Rikku dragged her to the music.
"Don't be silly!" Rikku was a party maniac and loved to dance. Her body swayed to the beat as she sang the words to the song.
Aeris felt her cheeks turn red as she tried to imitate Rikku's movements, ending up in a less graceful position on the ground. "Ohh! It's no good!"
Rikku helped Aeris up. "It's okay," she shouted over the music. "You just have to let your body dance for you!" She bounced her head up and down to a punk beat song that came on. Rikku had put her hair up in hundreds of tiny beaded braids that danced around with her.
Yuna grinned as Paine and LeBlanc escaped Rikku's watch. Paine wasn't particular to dancing and LeBlanc was probably off to find a drink. "Lucky you," she mouthed to Paine and LeBlanc as she got pulled back into the dance.
"That's much better!" Rikku complimented as Aeris took her advice.
Aeris smiled brightly. "Thanks to you Rikku," she laughed, spinning around.
"You did it all yourself!" Rikku said as the song ended. A slow song began to play.
Aeris walked over to a bar that had been set up inside a hut. She took off her red jacket and sat down, ordering a light drink.
Yuna pulled the hair off her face, already a bit tired. She watched as Gippal walked up to Rikku, both dancing close. They were perfect for each other. She jumped as she felt a pair of arms wrap around her shoulders.
"You didn't think I'd let you dance alone did you?" Tidus asked, turning her around.
A blush crept up Yuna's cheeks. "Not for a second," she whispered in his ear. She felt his arms slip around her waist as she clasped her hands together around his neck. She closed her eyes, taking in everything she could. "I'm so glad you're back."
"Me too," Tidus said.
Yuna could feel his heart beat steadily against her chest. She wanted to stay like this forever. But the song had ended. She pulled back, her hands still on his shoulders.
"That dance ended too soon," he said as a faster song started up again.
Too soon. She nodded, "Save the next one for me?"
"Every time," Tidus said, kissing her softly. Luckily for Yuna, he walked away. She could tell her face was a bright shade of vermillion, so she ran into the bar. A group of people had gathered around, which one was Aeris.
Unfortunetly, Aeris spotted her before Yuna could get away. "Hey Yuna!" she waved.
Yuna walked over to the girl sporting pink. "Hi Aeris," she said, trying to conceal her blush.
"What has you so worked up?" she teased.
Yuna looked away, grinning. Aeris seemed a lot more open now. Of course, that might have been caused by the three or four drinks. "Come on, let's go dance some more," Yuna said, taking Aeris by the hand and steering her to the dance area, where Rikku was already dancing her little heart out. The three young women danced at least twenty more songs before another slow rock began to play.
Aeris watched as Yuna and Tidus began to slow dance again. She walked towards the bonfire, her heart sinking with a small bit of jealousy. She envied them, but knew they had waited a long time to be together again. Not as long as she had been waiting though. She looked into the flames, her thoughts racing back to the days she had spent in Midgar.
"Are you okay?"
The flower girl looked up startled. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Lulu rested a hand on Aeris' shoulder. "We'll find a way," she said.
Aeris nodded. But somehow, she doubted it. It was something that hadn't ever been done before. She gave Lulu a smile as she walked away. She spent almost the rest of the party in front of the fire.
Tidus and Yuna stood together, the song ending and another beginning. "I can't believe we spend five years without each other," he said.
"It was worth it," she smiled, embracing him gently. She felt his fingers running through her hair. They spent the rest of the night dancing together, but didn't see Aeris again.
Guests began to leave, and they started to clean up. The fire had died and the islanders headed to their huts.
Paine waved goodnight to her friends, "Has anyone seen Aeris?"
"I thought she might be with you," Yuna said. She looked at Tidus, her sapphire-emerald eyes full of worry.
Tidus shook his head. "I haven't seen her either."
"Something wrong?" Lulu asked.
"We can't find Aeris!" Rikku said.
"She went into your hut Yuna," Lulu said, "She was tired, and a little drunk."
"Oh okay," Yuna nodded. "I set up an extra bed for her."
"What about me?" Tidus asked.
Yuna smirked, which worried Tidus, and took his hand and pulled him to her hut. "Good night everyone!"
"Night!" the blonde blitzball player said, slightly afraid.
Aeris was sitting on the extra bed, looking at her hands. "Oh. Hi guys," she said tiredly.
"Are you okay Aeris?" Yuna questioned.
The girl in pink shrugged. "I feel a little sick."
"Come on," Yuna said. "I'm sure I have some more comfortable clothes you can change into," she lead Aeris into another room where a bunch of clothes were folded and set on a table. She pulled out a pair on pink cotton pants and a white tank. She turned around to see Aeris, clutching her stomach and swaying to and fro. "Are you sure you're all right?" she asked.
Aeris took the clothes, "I just need some rest."
Yuna nodded and left the room, leaving Aeris some privacy to change. She grinned at Tidus, sitting on her bed. "Oh and I suppose because your back you think you get to sleep on my bed?" she put her hands on her hips.
Tidus gave Yuna a puppy dog face. "There's enough room for you too."
Yuna returned with a sly smirk. "As soon as I make sure Aeris is okay. I think she's a little drunk."
Dressed in Yuna's outfit, Aeris walked out, "I'm not drunk," she argued, "just..." She slowly layed down on her bed, falling asleep almost instantly.
"Yeah, not drunk," Yuna shook her head. She walked into the room to change herself. Once she had dressed in a white tank top and purple cotton shorts. Yuna noticed he had taken off his shirt, dressed only in his shorts. The former summoner grinned, and couldn't help staring at his muscular body.
Tidus obviously noticed because he grinned back.
She sat on the bed next to Tidus. "Can't say I didn't drink though," she yawned, leaning against Tidus' shoulder.
"Two drunk women in the same hut as I am? How will I control myself?" Tidus joked. This earned him a good punch in the chest. "OW!"
"Shh," Yuna shushed. "It didn't hurt that much."
He chuckled to himself then leaned back on the bed, patting the spot next to him.
Yuna fell onto the bed by him, her eyes becoming heavy. "I missed you," she said quietly.
"I missed you too." He draped his arm around Yuna's body, causing her to roll over and look at him.
"You know," she yawned again, "this might not look so good to everyone else in the morning."
"Everyone will sleep in anyways," Tidus said, kissing her once more. "Good night Yuna."
Even though his kiss was making her blush, she kissed him back, "Good night, my star blitzball player." Yuna rolled back over, her eyes closing. She could feel his breath against her neck, and pulled the blanket over the two of them. "I'm glad your back," she whispered, falling asleep to the soft noises of the night.
A/N: Just to let you all know, I am a major Tidaholic and I am so jealous of Yuna because she gets to see Tidus with his shirt off AND gets to sleep next to him... drools Uhhhh YES! Anyways! I hope you guys like this chapter. Just building up you know. Sorry if Aeris seems a bit OOC though. I haven't played FF7 in a looooooong time. Thanks for reading everyone who has so far! I promise it will get much more suspenseful! Oh! And if any of you have ideas for villans (we need one or two!) put it in a review or try and contact me on MSN messenger (ishietheshorthotmail.com) I'm usually on about 7 am central time, 4 pm, and 8-9 pm. I'd like to hear your ideas!!
