Chapter 3 continue

Shuyin and Yuna walked to the stadium. Actually it wasn't a very long walk. Lenne's house was right in front of the blitzball stadium, it was a perfect view. Especially during blitzball season. The stadium looked like a giant ball of light, the way it lit up and how crystal clear the water was. It was just perfect.

"It's beautiful." Yuna said.

"Yeah, its pretty." Shuyin still had his arm around Yuna's shoulder as they walked across the street to the stadium.

I could be walking here in Zanakard with Tidus. It's exactly the way he told me. Yuna glanced up at Shuyin, admiring his features. The blonde spiky like hair, the blue eyes, like the ocean, that cheerful smile. He reminded her of Tidus so much. They have so much in common.

"Lady Lenne. I'm glad you showed up. We thought you wasn't going to show up. I'm Sazuki. One of the new dancers........sort of, I left for a little while." Sazuki said as Shuyin and Yuna entered the stadium. "Come on. We have to get ready." She grabbed Yuna's arm but Shuyin pulled her back.

"Wait a minute." Shuyin said as he pulled Yuna in front of him, so that she could be facing him. He leaned down and placed a soft, gentle kiss on her lips and pulled back. "I love you and go have fun." With that Shuyin walked off. Man, why did I tell her that? Why did I kiss her? She's not Lenne. She's not Lenne. Come on Shuyin remember that. Her name is Yuna not Lenne.

Yuna stood there in shock. She didn't know what to say. Why did Shuyin tell me that he loved me? And what's up with the kiss?

"I swear that man loves you to death. He would do anything for you. Always giving you that last goodbye kiss, like you're not gonna see him again." Sazuki said.

Yuna blushed slightly. "Yeah, I guess. Well shouldn't we be getting ready?"

"Yes, lets go." Sazuki grabbed Yuna's arm once again pulling Yuna backstage. She really wasn't feeling the pain from her left ankle for some reason.

Shuyin took a sit in the front row of the stadium. "I wonder if she can handle this." He watched as the music started to play and Yuna walked out on stage. She look so much like Lenne on stage. Just beautiful.

Yuna stood nervously out on the stage, gazing out at the millions of people who came out to see her, well actually to see Lenne perform. Just go with the flow. Yuna heard off the distance. "Huh, what was that." Yuna said to herself. "Go on, Lady Lenne." Sazuki said while peeking out the curtains. Yuna turned around and nods. "Ok."

"Hi everybody. I'm Lenne. I'm sure you all know that by now?" Yuna said as she spoke into the microphone. The crowd started to clap and cheer as a answer to Yuna's question.

She smiles and takes a deep breathe. Just go with the flow. "I have a song that I would like to dedicate to my heart and love, Shuyin. It's called 1000 Words." Yuna walked over to the edge of the stage and sat down right in front of Shuyin and smiling at him. That's when she started to sing, that voice she heard seem to had taken over her body and the words just came out.

I know that you're hiding things

Using gentle words to shelter me

Your words were like a dream

But dreams could never fool me

Not that easily

I acted so distant then

Didn't say goodbye before you left

But I was listening

You'll fight your battles far from me

Far too easily

"Save your tears cause I'll come back"

I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door

But still I swore

To hide the pain when I turn back the pages

Shouting might have been the answer

What if I'd cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart

But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart

Though a thousand words

Have never been spoken

They'll fly to you

Crossing over the time and distance holding you

Suspended on silver wings

And a thousand words

One thousand confessions

Will cradle you

Making all of the pain you feel seem far away

They'll hold you forever

The dream isn't over yet

Though I often say I can't forget

I still relive that day

"You've been there with me all the way"

I still hear you say

"Wait for me I'll write you letters"

I could see how you stammered with your eyes to the floor

But still I swore to hide the doubt

When I turn back the pages

Anger might have been the answer

What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait

But now I'm strong enough to know it's not too late

Cause a thousand words

Call out through the ages

They'll fly to you

Even though we can't see I know they're reaching you

Suspended on silver wings

Oh a thousand words

One thousand embraces

Will cradle you

Making all of your weary days seem far away

They'll hold you forever

Oh a thousand words

Have never been spoken

They'll fly to you

They'll carry you home and back into my arms

Suspended on silver wings ohhh

And a thousand words

Call out through the ages

They'll cradle you

Turning all of the lonely years to only days

"They hold you foreveeeerrrrrrr." Yuna finished the last lyric of the song and stood up as the crowd stood up clapping and cheering. "Way to go!" Shuyin yelled out. Yuna took her bow and smiled as she walked off the stage.

Thanks for the reviews everybody, I'm glad ya'll are enjoying the story. Who do ya'll think that voice was talking to Yuna as she sung the song.
