A whole new story that will be continued in the next chapter. I just hope I get more reviews so I can finally break the ten-review limit. See, people say I write beautiful work; but no one really reads my stories. Can I please ask for someone else to read my story "Beldina Uh Dra Fymm"? Please? Review!

"I am bored." Yuna smiled as Tidus stated the obvious. Everyone was bored. The group was waiting for Kimahri to recover from a big wound on his back, where Wakka had thrown a blitzball at him. (Without meaning to hurt him, of course) Tidus and Yuna were standing outside, chatting and watching as Rikku and Lulu screamed at Wakka for hurting their favorite Ronso. "I should suggest that you go play blitzball." The blonde snorted quietly and put his arms behind his head, staring off into the distance. "I think I'll just go off training." He embraced Yuna with a blush on his face before walking off. Yuna watched him go with little interest.

Now the summoner was bored. She decided to check on Kimahri. Yuna walked inside the Inn, smiling at all the visitors who looked at her in awe and amazement. But secretly, she was thinking, stop looking at me! A young woman even bowed to her and said, "Thank you." This put a real smile on Yuna's face as she knocked on Kimahri's door. Anticipation built up inside of her. She had not seen her guardian all day. Simply put, Yuna missed Kimahri.

But instead of a blue paw opening the door, a tan hand swung open the door. Auron. "Yes, Yuna?" His gruff voice addressed her, along with a small nod her way. Yuna blushed and said, "I-I...just wanted to see Kimahri, Sir Auron," He nodded and let her in, motioning her to be quiet. The smile on her face grew even wider as her eyes fell on the Ronso lying on a bed in the corner, rubbing his back. "Kimahri!" Yuna squealed, forgetting that she was supposed to be quiet – which was too bad since Kimahri had a large headache. Auron groaned to himself, but placed himself in the corner, wanting to watch the two old friends interact.

"Kimahri happy to see Yuna." The Ronso removed his paw from his back and placed it on Yuna's face. "Yuna ok?" She nodded and hugged Kimahri for a long time before releasing him. "I missed you so much." The two struck a conversation up, talking about how Wakka could be so clumsy. All the while, Auron stood in the corner, deciding the conversation was too boring to listen to. After about thirty minutes, the warrior became annoyed. "Yuna," she turned around and looked at him with wide eyes, "Let Kimahri get rest." She nodded, and walked out with as little as a 'goodbye' to him. Obviously I have annoyed her. Auron chuckled, but quickly stopped as the Ronso turned to look at him and said, "Auron annoying Kimahri. Auron leave?" The ronin complied and left quickly, grabbing his robe and sword along the way.

"How is he, Yunie?!" As Yuna walked out of the Inn, she was ambushed by her cousin, dying to know how Kimahri was. She sighed. "He looks to be in bad shape...but I'm sure he will be better soon." Rikku grinned and ran back to bother Wakka. This left Yuna alone to herself, so she walked back to where she and Tidus had once been standing. Closing her eyes, she took in the sounds of screaming, the bustle of people, fiends howling, and the soft footsteps of someone. Turning around, she found Auron standing behind her, his katana hooked behind his shoulder. "Enjoying the moment?" Yuna nodded. Her relationship with Auron seemed strained at times, conversations hard to make. So this comment surprised her a bit. Auron would never talk to her freely, only saying stern or needed to say things. Wobbling her voice a bit, Yuna sighed back, "The Calm Lands are so beautiful. But many people have died here...I am surprised there are even so many people residing in the Inn." Auron walked up next to her and placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "You are strong. Do not worry."

They both sighed. Auron didn't remove his hand from her shoulder, keeping it firmly in place. What did you come here for? Remember what you meant to scold her about? The ronin suddenly remembered and made Yuna turn to face him. "Yuna..." The summoner gulped. She already knew what was coming. "...Kimahri needed rest. You should have just stopped to say a quick hello, then left. If you want him to recover quickly so we can continue on, then let him be." Yuna was taken aback by these words. Was it so bad that she wanted to talk to her good friend? Anger rose into her chest, but she said nothing. It was her duty to stay polite. "Yes, Sir Auron," she paused and placed her hand on his shoulder. "But friends cannot always fight the urge to see another." Auron furrowed his eyebrow. Is she talking back? He didn't like to deal with sassy people, and the tone of Yuna's voice seemed to have challenge. He quickly accepted. "You want him to get well, don't you?!" He gripped her shoulder a little tighter; she returned the action.

"I was just checking in."

"But you could have just stopped in, said a quick hello, then left!"

"He wanted to talk to me, Sir Auron!"

"You should have stopped him so he can get better!"

"How is talking bad for him, anyways? It is not like he was bonked on the head!"

Auron did not return a venom-filled comment. Instead, he paused and let his hand fall to his side. What did she just say? The way Yuna had said 'bonked on the head' was filled with such little attitude and seriousness that it just struck him as funny. He bit his lip, not wanting to laugh out loud. The summoner returned to her normal attitude and observed Auron. "Why do you look like that, Sir Auron? You look like you are constipated." The ronin could not take it anymore. He burst out laughing, a full out laugh that Yuna had never heard before. After awhile, Yuna began to laugh also, and they both laughed together, not stopping until Lulu noticed them.

"What exactly is so funny?" She asked, and the two glanced at each other. Auron straightened himself up and adjusted his ponytail. "It is nothing." He bit his lip again and nodded towards the Inn entrance. "I must...ah...go check on Kimahri." And with that, he ran inside, biting his lip so hard it started to bleed.

"What was so funny?" Lulu asked again, now asking just Yuna, who simply shook her head. "I don't even know, Lulu."
