A/N: This chapter is short as well, closing up the story. It's been a real slice guys! I'll add my final goodbyes in the epilouge.
To Shelbie: Thank you! And I've gotten it but my disc must be really messed up (although it's practically new) because the part where Wakka should yell "Hey you two get a room!" well... you just see the text. It's really dumb and I'm gonna call Square or somethin about it soon hehe.
To Saikia: Hey I looked at your story and it sounds pretty interesting! If I ever get the chance I'll read it!
To tranquility: Thankies but this is the end of the story pretty much. Don't worry, the sequel will be out pretty quick.
To Daniel: Lol; yesh everyone must be happy hehe. And yes there is a sequel! I'm still outlining the plot and such but I have it started!
To dark dragon00: yup!
Chapter Twenty-Six
A Journey's End
Yuna's eyes opened slowly to the soft sound of the ocean against a cliff. She could feel the warmth of her husband's arms around her bare waist. Smiling softly to herself, she wriggled out of his arms, carefully getting out of the bed so not to wake up Tidus. She slipped on a satin bathrobe, the cool material causing soft goosebumps to appear on her arms. She stood on the balcony of the beach house they had rented in Costa De Sol for their honeymoon. Aeris had mentioned it, and it worked out wonderfully. A soft ocean breeze blew wisps of hair in her face, giving her an ethereal look.
So much has happened. We defeated Sephiroth and Seymour once and for all. Another journey has ended, and new friends have found their way into my heart. Aeris and Cloud made up and are together again. She's moved to Midgar again with Cloud. I'll miss her, but I'm glad she's happy. That was my goal; I succeeded. Rikku and Gippal are happy together. They've begun to rebuild their Home, in a hope to make a home for anyone who feels like an outcast. Loey and Vidina are good friends as ever, but they deny ever being closer. Of course, they're only two and three years old. We'll wait a good ten years before things really begin. I might be part of that club soon. Kids. It's a funny thought. Well, maybe not yet. I'll play the part of aunt for a bit first. The fighting has ceased, the battles have ended. When I look back at my journey, I have no regrets. With the help of my friends, I conquered everything that stood in my way.
Yuna jumped slightly, her thoughts interrupted by a hand around her waist. "I didn't wake you, did I?"
"Nah," Tidus grinned. "This place is beautiful. It's a shame we have to leave today."
Yuna smiled softly. "Yeah. We can always come back though."
"Someday. But it's a little too quiet here for me," Tidus said with a laugh.
"It's a nice quiet though. Not something you get often, even in Besaid." Yuna leaned into his arms, taking in everything she could.
"Our lives are going to change a lot," Tidus sighed.
"Yup. We're going to have a niece or nephew and maybe someday children of our own. It's sort of a scary thought," Yuna chuckled.
"No. You'd be a perfect mother. You get along so great with kids."
"I guess our long journeys are coming to an end," Yuna said with a tone of sadness.
"No more pilgrimages, bad guys, evil maesters," Tidus said, counting off reasons they had travelled.
Yuna closed her eyes. She would miss things like that. But she had a life now. She wasn't the timid, yet determined, young summoner who was willing to throw her life away for the people of Spira. She wasn't the strong-minded gunner and sphere hunter who spent her time searching for the arms she was in. She was just Yuna. And that would have to do. "I'll miss it a lot."
"Yeah. But we'll have lots of things to do. And we can still play blitzball. Which I still haven't seen you play," Tidus said.
Yuna looked up at him, grinning. "You'll be sorry you asked when I kick your butt."
"Ha! Lady Yuna kick the butt of the star player of the Zanarkand Abes? I don't think so!" Tidus laughed.
"We'll see, mister!" Yuna giggled.
Even though I won't be as free to roam the seas and skies like I once was, I will still be just as happy. As long as you're here with me, I am free.
Our journey closes... but it won't be the end. There will be more laughter, tears, and whistles I'm sure. I look forward to meeting you again Aeris. Someday soon, we'll see each other again.
A/N: Basically Yunie and Tidus had some warm-hearted "fun" on their honeymoon. The next chapter is actually just the epilouge, not a full chapter. (Neither is this one really...) LYL -Letselina
