"I wish you'd drop dead, Brother." Rikku snapped, looking through Paine's bedside cupboard.
"Eeeargh. May the good fairy what sits in the sky grant your every wish." Brother replied swinging his arms restlessly. It appears that Paine had made off with most of their spheres. The only one she had left was Leblanc's last laugh. Well hardy har har.
Rikku stood up to find Yuna behind her, plating with her half skirt pathetically. "Cheer up, Yunie. She didn't leave just because of you." Yuna looked elsewhere within the cabin.
Since Paine had left, Yuna had felt that she had been the straw that broke the Shoopuf's back. Not that Paine was a shoopuf. The other Gullwings had thought that Paine was just overreacting and out of her mind. Yuna went out to sit on the deck. She secretly hoped that she'd one day find Paine here.
"Hi, guys." Paine called. The new Crimson Squad HQ was on the North bank of the Moonflow. They decided to operate close to their old factions so they could stop any trouble quickly. Gippal had been thrilled with the idea of running of down the Moonflow gun blazing...until Nooj hit him over the head with his metal cane.
"Where's the religious fella?" She asked playfully, dropping the bag she had brought.
"Other bank." Gippal said coming over to inspect the bag she had brought. "Whatcha got there, Dr. P?"
"Spheres from the Celsius." She said, throwing a mock punch at his face.
After a brief fight, Paine rode a shoopuf over the Moonflow to find Baralai staring out at the Moonlilies. She sat next to him, confident that he would start talking.
"...What time is it?" He asked eventually, voice thick and slurry as if he had just been woken from a deep sleep.
"Two minutes past ten. (X-2)" Paine said, taking her fiancé's hand. He had proposed to her in the Den of Woe. Of all the places in Spira. The Den of bloody Woe.
FLASHBACK "Paine." Baralai says suddenly. "I have something to ask you." They are trekking through the Den of Woe. Nooj and Gippal said they'd help but it's now two hours past their meeting time. She supposes they just conveniently forgot.
"Uh, Baralai? Can this wait until-"
"I have to say this now!" He shouts from somewhere on her left.
"Okay, okay. Go ahead." Although the spirit of Shuyin is long gone, the place still has an ominous feel about it.
"I love you. W-ah. Can you? Ugh." Unseen, he drops to one knee and shoves the engagement ring on her ring finger unceremoniously. "Marry me." He says, exhaling at the same time.
"Baralai..."
END OF FLASHBACK
"You thinking about the wedding, too?" She asks, leaning in close, smelling his scent. He nods, pulling her closer.
"Well, where is she?" The Black Mage asks boredly, picking up her son from his crib.
Yuna and Lulu are at Lulu and Wakka's home. Yuna is speaking to Lulu about Paine having already bored Tidus to the point of ignorance.
"I don't know!...Do you think I should find her?" Yuna asks, sipping tea from her mug whilst watching Lulu over the rim.
Lulu straightens up and turns to her. "I don't know, The only thing I do know is that she and the Praetor of New Yevon are getting married soon."
"Married?!" Yuna stood quickly, dousing her bare legs with tea. "How do you know?"
"It was in the paper." Lulu said, pointing to a stack of Besaid Weeklies over in the corner. Wakka had obviously not looked at them yet. They weren't strewn across the floor of the little hut. Yuna riffled through the pile, throwing aside the ones she didn't find the article in. Lulu took one and opened it to a page which proclaimed what Lulu had said. 'PRAETOR BARALAI AND PAINE TO WED!' the headline seemed to leer at her. Yuna tossed the paper back on the side.
"...I wish she was still my friend." Yuna said, feeling tears sting at her two-tone eyes. Lulu moved towards the younger girl with surprising speed.
"Stop it" Why can't you be happy with what you've got?! You got Tidus but that's not enough for you, is it?! Oh, no. You still swagger about here as if you owned it!" Lulu's face had gone a dangerous shade of red known as Wakka-red. "If you're just going to complain then you can just get out! Go on, OUT!" With that the former summoner and Gullwing found herself outside of her childhood home.
Sorry about how short that was. I have and will be revising for my upcoming AS exams (Psychology, sociology, English language, English literature and General Studies). Writing's therapeutic though so I won't stop although the updates might not be weekly but I will try to keep it that way. -FFH.
