Chapter 1 "Surprise!"
It has been a full 2 years since Yuna became a spherehunter. Yuna was totally depressed about losing Tidus. She remembered the memories with Tidus on her pilgrimage as a summoner. Yuna really loved him, but it was time to move on. Little did she know Rikku and Lulu were throwing Yuna a surprise party for her 21 birthday that night. There was a sudden knock at the door that startled her half to death. "C-Come in!" "Yunie!" Rikku said. "Y-Yes?!" "Lulu has some very important news to talk to you about." "Okay!'' Yuna quickly got up and got dressed. Yuna opened the door and ran over to Lulu's house, and Rikku followed. "Lulu said just to come in!" Yuna slowly entered the dark room. Then suddenly the lights flipped on. "Happy Birthday, Yuna!!!" "Oh, wow-!!!" Yuna started. Gippal and Baralai were also at her party. Yuna turned her mismatched eyes towards Rikku and put her arms on her waist. "Rikku, I'm gonna-!!!" Yuna ran at Rikku and tackled her to the floor. Gippal and Baralai began to laugh. "I can't believe you!!!!" Yuna said tickling Rikku. "Okay, Okay!" Rikku said laughing. Yuna stopped and stood up, her back towards Gippal and Baralai. She helped Rikku to her feet. "Hey look it's Cid's girl!" Gippal said. "Hey, I have a name." Rikku ran over to Gippal and jumped into his arms and he caught her. Gippal noticed that Yuna was surprised and he kissed Rikku. Rikku and Gippal have been going out for the past year now, which Yuna obviously didn't know. U-uh, Rikku?!" "Rikku!" The two stopped kissing and they laughed. "When were you going to tell me about this?" Gippal put Rikku down. "Well tonight actually." "But why not sooner?" "Well, I was a little afraid to." "Why?" "I thought you would be mad." "Why would I be mad?" Yuna asked looking at Rikku then at Gippal who just grinned at her. "Well I thought you would be mad because you weren't able to find your lost love." Yuna just looked at Rikku with a sad look on her face. "I'm not mad I'm really happy for you, really." "Lost love?" Gippal asked. Gippal had a crush on Yuna but never made a move on her because he knew that she had no interest in him whatsoever. "Yes, Gippal." Rikku said. "What happened?" "He vanished." "How?" "He was a dream of the Faythe." "A dream of the-." Yuna gave an annoyed look at Gippal which meant to shut up. "I'm sorry, anyways happy birthday." Gippal came up to Yuna and hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. "It's really nice to see you Gippal." Yuna said rather annoyed. "Hello 21 year old." Yuna wheeled around. "Hey Lulu!" Yuna hugged the pregnant woman. "So how much longer?" "Still awhile." "Bummer!" Both Yuna and Rikku said disappointed. "Please excuse me." Hello, Lady Yuna." Yuna looked in the direction of the voice. Baralai walked up to Yuna and romantically hugged her. "Wooooo!" Rikku said. Yuna was shocked because she never had imagined that he would do such a thing. "Lady Yuna might I have a word with you?" Yuna looked at Rikku and she nodded. "Sure!" Baralai extended his hand to Yuna and she took it. Baralai lead her outside. "So what did you want to talk to me about?" Baralai immediately grabbed Yuna by her waist and pulled her slender body to his and slowly kissed her. Yuna didn't seem to object but neither did she do anything because she was in shock and didn't move. After the kiss, Baralai backed away from Yuna. She seemed to know what he was trying to say. "Wow!" "I love you Yuna." "Baralai?" Yuna said. Baralai noticed that she wanted him to kiss her again. Baralai walked back to Yuna and she pulled him to her and kissed him passionately. "Yuna-." Lulu started and stopped when she saw them kissing. Lulu smiled. "Hey Rikku,Gippal, come here." She whispered. "What?" they asked. Lulu pointed at Yuna and Baralai. Rikku giggled and Gippal smiled. "Hey you two get a room!" Rikku said. They stopped kissing and looked up. "Excuse me?" Yuna said. "You heard me!" "Rikku!" Yuna ran in Rikku's direction but arms surrounded her from behind. Baralai held her to him and began to tickle Yuna. This made Yuna laugh ridiculously and it made both Rikku and Gippal burst out laughing too.
