Yes, took a while to write this chapter. I've been really busy in school, but I'm writing during English.
One more thing, about this chapter, since it's sorta an AU, Costa del Sol has changes. This is my fic, therefore, I shall change what I want. Okay? Okay.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything other than any characters not from Final Fantasy VII, the plot, and also the 'new' design of Costa del Sol. Hmm.. If you wanna give my Yuffie for my birthday in less than a month, I'd be more than happy to accept her!
Tears of Sorrow
Chapter 6: Sights Meant to be Kept Unseen
As I stare at the beauty of what is Coasta del Sol, I fantasize of what I want, keyword 'want', to do there. If there wasn't a fight coming up, I would be in the sun, tanning, or perhaps swimming in the cool ocean waters. God only knows how unlucky I am, therefore, I won't get to do that.
Someone tapped my shoulder, breaking my fantasies as easily as smashing an egg with a hammer.
I turned to glare at that someone, thoughts of death and violence going through my mind.
The last time one had broken me from my lovely fantasies, they ended up with two broken ribs, several DEEP cuts and several broken bones. That, and not forgetting to mention the two black eyes, because, well, a person only has two eyes, right? That person was my father's best friend. Bastard almost bled to death, too, if it wasn't for Godo.
Guilt spread through me at the thoughts of what I had done, purely on instinct. Oh well, at least he lived.
My glare softened, when I finally noticed the person was Tsuna, until it dissipated into nothingness. Me and her had become best friends in the past..however long we've known each other. Sure, we got off to a bad start, but we talked through all of that. Now, we spend practically all our time together, that is, whenever she's not off with Sephy.
I still have my suspicions about those two. I think somethings going on between them, especially since they seem to be going off together more than usual. Well, that or being both gone at the same time, which leads me to suspect that they go off to meet. Whatever, though. It's not my business anyways.. Maybe that's why I feel I must find out. Because of my curious side wanting to know. It's almost mind-numbing the way I have yet to know.
In other so-called news, Vinnie was acting strange the whole way here. He seemed to be deep in thought..but that's not what I mean. Sure, he's usually in thought, but he was also..closer to me? Yeah, that's what it is. Closer. Though don't get me wrong, I like the way he's being, but it's just so..different.
Different. I like different, especially if this is what it's like. Vinnie's just so..Vinnie. God, I really do sound love-sick, even to myself. I think I'm growing attached, but I'll be fine as long as he doesn't leave me. Alone.
I don't want to be left alone. Again. It'd would probably break me, anyways. Yet again. And I don't like being broken, it doesn't feel..well..me-ish.
Call me crazy, but--what the hell am I thinking? Vinnie not leave me? I think he can barely stand me as it is. All will leave me. Alone. Again.
I sigh as I turn my attention back to Tsuna, who's mindlessly chatting to me about something or other. I don't know what she's talking about, because.. Well, to put it simply, lost in thought.
She finally finishes up, saying that she's sorry for something.
"Huh?" I ask her, utterly confused.
She sighs, "Were you even paying attention?"
"..Yeah.. Of course I was!" I 'expertly' lie.
Her head droops at my response, and I feel guilty. "Well, then--"
I cut her off, "Let's just go!"
At those words, I start to run, in the direction toward the city entrance, Vinnie, Tsuna, and Sephy just feet behind me.
We entered the city, all four of us. I had already decided we'd stay in the inn. Of course, I had yet to tell them, therefore, they are..clueless, or so I am lead to believe.
I kept walking to my destination at a steady pace, never slowing down, and yet, never going any faster.
I looked to my companions, Tsuna seemed confused and yet excited, Sephy seemed a little bored, and Vinnie looked stoic as ever.
I mentally sighed, making a note to bring him out of that..state.
Tsuna was the only one who saw me looking, and immediately took this chance to ask me where we were going.
I had simple replied with a simple, but monotonous, "Inn."
Damn Vinnie, he really is starting to rub off on me. Ah! Any more of this and I'll be..I'll be...the female version of Vincent I-must-be-so-damn-stoic-all-the-time Valentine.
I growled out in frustration, earning myself a couple curious stares. And yet, I have no explanation, just walked even more silently.
Soon enough, I had found the damned inn. I can't believe I hadn't found it earlier, it really did stand out.
Being that of a huge lime green building, while all other buildings are a bright orange and a pretty golden yellow, it should have really stood out. Guess they were going for a sun look, although the lime green may have perhaps spoiled that effect.
A couple kids played outside the building, kicking a soccer ball against the side wall of the yellow building across from it.
After staring for a minute or so, I entered the building,starting to pull out enough Gil for our stay.
If I hadn't enough Gil to pay for the rooms, I would have borrowed some off one of my companions, although I'm lucky I do.
Looking around, I spotted the front desk in the far right of the room. Around it, flowers of various types and colors clashed. Closer to me, in the right, was a small TV, along with two leather couches in front of it.
A fairly large bar was in the far right corner, effectively taking up an eighth of the whole room. Tables were scattered in front of it, taking up the other seven eighths of the right side.
Minutes passed as I gawked, before coming back to reality. As soon as this was so, I made a mad dash for the desk.
Upon arrival at it, I tossed thee hundred Gil out on the desk, asking for three rooms, their two fairly luxurious singles and one not-so-fancy double.
After getting the keys, I walked back to Tsuna, knowing I'd be questioned. "Hey, why'd you only get three rooms?" she asked, curiosity creeping into her tone.
"That's all we need," I replied devilishly and handed her her key, only to have it snatched up.
"But there's four of us!" Sephy growled at me.
I tossed him a key, "Really? Well I guess you'll just have to share a room with Vinnie." I paused, before continuing to explain, naturally sounding all-knowingly, "Anyway, me or Tsuna can't share one, we're female, we NEED the extra space."
With that, I walked up the two sets of stairs just beside the entrance, calling down a goodnight before going out of earshot.
I unlocked my door and opened it.
Peeking in, I noticed the white lilies on the bedside table immediately, the bed in the left corner, just the way I liked it. The walls were tinted egg white. At the end of the bed was a small TV, much like the one in the lobby. At the opposite corner from the TV was a closet, meant to put your clothing while you stayed. A dark-green couch lay on the right of the bedside table, ending where the door would not reach, a table in front of it.
I finally walked in, finally finished my gawking. I put my bag down by the bed, not even checking the time and falling down onto it. I drifted into a deep sleep pretty fast, considering I had trouble lately falling asleep.
I awoke early--well, early for someone like me who's up at 10:46 now and is usually asleep until well after 12 unless awoken by someone.
Yawning, I got out of the bed and stretched. With that, I walked toward the bathroom, thinking only to shower and get ready for the beach, since my dream had decided to tell me that I absolutely had to do so--or so I told myself.
I arrived at the bathroom, forgetting to find out if there was anyone in there.
As soon as I opened the door, I let out a very un-me like, high-pitched scream from my slightly parted lips.
(Should I end it there? Nah. I don't really like cliff-hangers, therefore, I'll resist putting one..this time, at least.)
Horrifying, absolutely horrifying. didn't people lock doors anymore?
Yeah, right Yuffie. Don't you mean, don't people knock anymore? I'm such an idiot.
Now, I knew something was going on between Tsuna and Sephy, but that is just wrong in so many ways.
Oh dear God, my virgin eyes. I'm scarred for life, now!
Words flashed through my mind. These words being, 'Tsuna. Sephy. Naked. Heat. Bodies. Screams. Climax.' The words came into my mind over and over and over again, eventually bringing an unwanted mental picture.
I screamed again, from the horror once more, and ran back to my room.
Once there, I changed into my design-less green two-piece bathing suit, grabbed my towel and left the inn, heading toward the beach, skipping the shower purposely.
What I really needed now was the sun, cool breeze, and a whole lot of so-totally-wrong-image-relief.
