Love Under Disguise—Chappie 5

Yunie and the rest of the gang finally picked us up 45 minutes later. But, we still needed to get somebody to take care of the Chocobo Ranch.
"Um, Yunie?"
"Yes, Rikku?"
"Do you know anybody who could take care of the Ranch?"
"Already got that covered, Rikku. Barkeep!" Barkeep and Darling ran over to where we were standing. "Barkeep and Darling are going to take care of the Ranch. Is that okay, Clasko?" He nodded yes to the question. "Okay, then! Let's get to Luca! Buddy, full speed ahead!"
"Rodger!" With that, the Celsius took off, leaving Barkeep and Darling behind.

We finally got to Luca twenty minutes later, and Callie and I raced out to the appointed shop, along with Yunie, Lulu, and Paine. "Hey! Where are you going?" Gippal shouted. We still didn't tell him, but we told Clasko to tell him himself. "Clasko will tell you, now. Until then, we'll meet at the Sphere Theater! See ya!" But Gippal grabbed my arm, and pulled me into the shadows. "What's the big idea? Hey!" He pinned me against the wall, wearing that rare smirk on his face. "But, don't I get a goodbye kiss, first?" He teased. He unpinned me, and made a pathway for my escape. But, I decided to get him back, and pinned him against the wall instead.

"A 'goodbye kiss', huh?" I asked, while putting my face inches away from his. I could smell his scent that he always wore with him. I always loved that scent... But I pulled away when he puckered up; preparing for a kiss that he thought was coming. I burst out laughing. "HAHAHAHAHA! You fell for it! HAHAHAHAHA! That was for all of the times you teased me!" I practically fell on the floor in a fit of laughter. But Gippal had other thoughts. He pushed me up against the wall again, and pressed his lips up against mine before I could say another word. If anyone knew how to shut me up, that would be Gippal. But, little did we know that Yunie and the rest of the gang were watching us. I finally broke away and smiled at him. He smiled back at me with one of his rare smiles. But, Brother broke in and ruined the moment, again.

"Gippal! What are you doing to Rikku!? Oh, father is going to be so furious with you, Rikku! And he marched towards the airship to report to my father. Gippal noticed the position we were in, and dropped his arms to his sides, as I did the same with mine. We giggled nervously when we saw Yunie and the rest of everybody, looking at us with smirks and confused expressions on their faces.

"What? You never see anybody do that before? Get back to what you were doing!" Gippal said, while secretly lacing his fingers through mine.

"Um, we were waiting for Rikku." Yunie said, smirking at us. She noticed our hands almost immediately.

"Oh, yeah..." I nervously giggled. "Um, Gippal, I have to go with Yunie and the rest of us girls to pick out some things for Callie. Okay?" He nodded, and pulled away, waving goodbye while being dragged away by Wakka, who was carrying Vedina, Barali, Nooj, Shinra, Buddy, and Brother.

"Okay, see you girls around three!" Wakka shouted after the girls. The guys finally separated from the girls a few minutes later, and I heard Clasko muttering the words that made Gippal laugh. I let out a chuckle, too. I couldn't help it! Gippal's laugh was so contagious! Right?

"Okay, let's save the dress shop for the last thing to do, and get to the flower shop, and every other thing that we could possibly think of. Because we will spend most of our time in the dress shop, trying to decide which dresses we will need for the wedding. Okay?" Lulu took a deep breath after saying all of this, and we all nodded. "Okay, then let's get a move on!" I shouted full of excitement, making everybody jump. We all cheered afterwards, and went to the nearest flower shop. We ended up picking out Moon Lilies, and headed to our next destination, the jewelry store. We picked out a nice yellow crystal, and headed to our final destination, the dress shop, called "Save The Queen—Bridal Attire." The nice lady took to measuring us all, and directed us to the dresses in our size. "I was thinking that the color of the maid's dresses should be a light yellow." Callie found the perfect one for Yunie and the rest, and made them try them on. Then, she picked one out for me, and I went and tried it on. It fit perfectly! And, it was my color, and it had a little train, too! It was completely sleeveless, and, just like Yunie's regular shirt, it went down to my stomach, showing a lot of cleavage. And, like a fairy's dress, the skirt part was with shredded material, and it went down to my ankles. It was absolutely PERFECT!

"Hey, Rikku, are you going to stay in that stall all day, or come and show that dress off on you?" I heard everybody giggling, and I counted to ten.

"Okay, ready or not, here I come." I gracefully walked out into the open, and I was surprised to see all of the guys there as well, including Gippal. I felt myself blushing several shades of red, and I almost walked back into the dressing room, when somebody reached out and grabbed my arm. Thankfully, it wasn't Gippal.

"That is just perfect for you, Rikku! You should have seen me in my dress!"

"What? I missed it?" I asked.

"No, I just didn't show it off to anybody." Callie and I both laughed. "Well, what time is it?" I asked.

"Well, it's 3:45, girls, and that's why we're here." Gippal answered sarcastically.

"Oopsies! Well I better change out of this, huh?" I quickly went into the dressing room before anybody could say anything else, and sphere changed into my original clothes. We bought the dresses, and went to an inn to rest at.

"Hello, how may I help you?" The gentleman asked at the counter.

"Um, how many rooms do you have available?"

"Only four, sir."

"We'll take them." Gippal paid, and I did some math in my head. Oh, well. That meant Wakka, Lulu, and Vedina get one room, Yunie and Tidus get another room, and we still have Paine, Barali, Gippal and I.

"Um, Gippal, who's going to be sharing a room with who?" I asked innocently.

"Well, who votes for couples?" Everybody raised his or her hand, except for Paine. "Well, that leaves you and me, Rikku." He took my hand, and led me to the room we were sharing. I let go of his hand, and sat on the bed, yawning while taking my shoes off. Gippal watched me with interest, and a smirk on his face. He came and sat beside me, pulling me to him, into a kiss. I finally broke the kiss, and got a smile on my face.

"Hey, no nasty ideas! Agreed?" I held out my hand for him to shake, and he took my hand, and shook it with his own.

"Agreed." And with that, we kissed one last kiss goodnight, before slipping off to Slumber Land.
