Chapter Three
The Proposal...
Wakka and Tidus walked back down the hill to where Lulu and Yuna were. Tidus walked into the door first. Lulu looked up, "Tidus how are you?"
"Hey! Yeah I'm all good" he replied.
Wakka went and sat next to Lulu and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Good morning Honey" she said sweetly.
"So, Lulu how's Vidina?" Tidus asked her.
"Bad, she threw up all over me last night and then threw her bottle at Wakka" she laughed.
Wakka bent over and revealed a large bump in the center of his head. "Then she started screaming as if there were no tomorrow" he added.
"Yuna sweetie, can you round up the beach for a bonfire tonight?" Tidus asked her, semi-conscious of Yuna finding out what he was planning.
"What's the occasion?" she asked quickly.
"Oh, ummm..." he paused, thinking of what sort of excuse would work. "No occasion, just thought that we could get the beach together for a party"
"Oh, but we are having one tomorrow, because tomorrow four years ago...We defeated Sin"
"I completely forgot. Never mind then, tomorrow can be the party" Tidus had completely forgotten that it had been nearly a full four years since the 'Eternal Calm' had started.
So many things had changed; Kimahri becoming the Elder of the Ronso tribe on Mt Gagazet, Rikku becoming second in command on the airship, The Celsius; Sir Auron had vanished, like he had, with the dream of the Fayth and his best friends Wakka and Lulu had got married and had a baby.
Now, his story was about to start all over again as was Yuna's (Considering she would say 'yes' of course) If she said yes to his proposal, he was going to take her to Kilika Port for their honeymoon.
"Tidus honey, let's see if Rikku, Brother and Buddy wanna come to the party tomorrow" asked Yuna.
"Yeah, that'd be cool" he replied with enthusiasm.
As they were leaving Wakka ran up to him and tapped him on the shoulder and said "Remember, Blitz training starts next week, so make sure you turn up"
"Will do"
(A/N: Blitzball is a kind of soccer/basketball game played in a sphere dome full of water)
Tidus and Yuna reached their home and sat down. He lent over to her and started to kiss her passionately. After a minute or so they broke apart.
"What was that for?" she said, blushing as she spoke.
"I love you Yuna, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you"
Tidus quickly put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a ring with a bright blue gem, carved out of the remaining sphere fragments in the faded Macalania Woods.
"Will you marry me?"
Yuna burst into tears and threw her arms around him. A wide smile spread across her face.
"Yes Tidus, I will marry you!"
Tidus let out a shout of glee and picked her up, hugging her with all his might.
"I love you Tidus, with all my heart"
"Let's go tell Wakka and Lulu the news" said Tidus who couldn't contain himself, he started jumping round the room and Yuna was laughing.
"But before we go...There's something I told you four years ago, that you didn't..." Yuna started.
"I heard it" he interrupted
"You did?"
"You told me that you loved me...and you mean it don't you?"
"Yes, of course"
Tidus grabbed Yuna's hand and pulled her out of the house. Arriving in front on Wakka and Lulu's house, they stopped to catch their breath. Tidus was hyperventilating and Yuna looked like she could collapse. They burst in on Wakka and Lulu kissing on the bed. "Oops, sorry guys" said Yuna moving back towards the door.
"Hey, what's da big idea?" Wakka said, shocked.
"We got some news to tell you." said Tidus giving Wakka a small wink.
"Tidus and I...are engaged" Yuna said gleefully.
Lulu and Wakka both rushed up to them and hugged them. Lulu was silently crying and laughing as she said, "Congratulations"
"Yeah Congrats" Wakka said pulling Tidus out of the hut.
"I did it!" Tidus said excitedly
"As I can see...Nuh well done, so how'd you do it?"
"I just came out and said it. The time was right"
Wakka lifted an eyebrow and sniggered silently to himself, before Tidus gave him a punch in the arm.
"Get those dirty pictures outta your mind. We were just sitting down together and I got out the ring and said it"
Meanwhile back in the hut Lulu and Yuna were discussing the ring...
"So...show me what he got you"
Yuna moved her hand in front of Lulu's face and showed her. "Wow" she said.
"It's a sphere from Macalania Woods"
"I knew you two were perfect from the beginning"
"Rephrase that, Lu"
"Well, I thought he was a bit of an idiot at first but then he sort of just seemed perfect for you."
'Oh Yevon, I have to tell Rikku"
"Bye" said Lulu
Yuna ran out of the house and grabbed Tidus by the arm. "See ya Wakka!" he yelled out.
They arrived back at the house once more and Yuna walked over to the Comm Sphere sitting on their table.
"Rikku, come in Rikku" she said into it.
Rikku's face suddenly appeared into view. "Hey Yunie!" she said happily. Yuna didn't say anything; she just shoved her hand in front of the Comm Sphere.
"Oooh, that's a pretty ring" she said gazing at it admirably.
"It's my engagement ring"
"But your not..."
"Tidus proposed this morning"
Rikku turned to Tidus and a nasty smile moved along her face. "Tidus, you naughty boy...What's been goin on, that Rikku's missed?"
"I'll tell you tomorrow. You, Buddy and Brother are invited to the Island tomorrow for a party to celebrate four years since the 'Eternal Calm' began"
"Oh yay, I love parties" said Rikku jumping up and down on the spot. "Who else is going?"
"Well..." said Tidus
"I'll tell her" said Yuna to Tidus.
"Baralai, Nooj, Paine, Dona and Barthello, Issaru, Maroda, Shinra and Gippal"
"Gippal's going?" Rikku said quickly.
"Yep"
"What time?"
"Whenever"
"Okay then, see you tomorrow"
"Bye"
When Rikku had disappeared, Tidus turned to Yuna and slowly moved her over to the bed and for the second time that day, he started to kiss her, hoping that Wakka and Lulu would not barge in, like they had done.
Wakka and Tidus walked back down the hill to where Lulu and Yuna were. Tidus walked into the door first. Lulu looked up, "Tidus how are you?"
"Hey! Yeah I'm all good" he replied.
Wakka went and sat next to Lulu and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Good morning Honey" she said sweetly.
