To gunmagerikku:
I didn't really consider Auron to be a matchmaker but he really just wanted Rikku to get that bit of paper - if Yuna got it it would be a Tuna instead of a Tikku.
This story isn't overly humourous but I had to choose another topic! I've tried to make it as funny as possible but my romantic side is coming out more :-)
It was early morning, about 5ish when Rikku woke up. Smiling a little, she tucked the beds blankets around her lover and got a bite to eat. The sun had not yet risen so she made sure the curtains were shut so when it did rise it didn't blind Tidus. She checked her cellphone to make sure no one had texted her but found one.
It said:
E muja oui.
She smiled.
"Good morning sleepy" she grinned.
"Good morning" the tired star blitz player replied.
"Do ya want a bite to eat?" Rikku asked as she opened the fridge.
"OK" he said. "As long as its not poison. In other words, don't make it."
Rikku stopped what she was doing, and turned to Tidus, wild eyed.
"FRYD!" she screamed, tackling his still sleepy figure.
"It was a joke!" Tidus tried to say, but there was no air left in his windpipe to say it.
He leaned up and tried to hug her instead.
"Ssshhh..." he whispered.
She thrashed around a little in her fury but calmed down.
"The whole town is looking for you" Tidus whispered to Rikku, "Does anyone know about this treehouse?"
Rikku smiled.
"You underestimate the Al Bhed" she said, smiling.
She walked over to the window and let in some fresh air.
"No one can see us, and we can see them. Like a one sided mirror. The Al Bhed invented those too." she added as she saw Tidus look at her, as if asking if the Al Bhed REALLY invented some of the best things in Spira.
He nodded, not daring to disagree.
----------------------------------
Auron smirked at the shopkeeper, which made the poor lady stutter.
"Anyt-thing else, s-sir?" she asked, crossing her fingers beneath the counter that he would say no.
"Actually..." Auron started, just to terrorise the Guado shopkeeper.
The poor Guado plastered a fake smile on her face as she listened to the stoic guardians other requests for the hundredth time.
--------------------------------
Tidus jumped down from the tree and looked around.
"No one saw me" he hissed to Rikku, who nodded as though she had heard him.
He walked down towards the beach to have a refreshing swim found Wakka and the Besaid Aurochs playing blitzball on his swimming spot.
"Hey brudda" Wakka said smiling. "Where 'd you go last night ya?"
Tidus grinned.
"Cave by the waterfall maybe."
"OK brudda. But tell me if you want to run off next time, ya?"
Tidus grinned evilly. But his evil grin was cut short by Yuna leading a band of Yevonites straight toward him.
"Oh bugger" Tidus said. "I'm in it deep now."
As the band of people came closer, Wakka said:
"Look ya. You can't see it from here, but they have someone hostage."
"Whoa! Who?" Tidus asked, afraid of the answer.
A priest from the temple came foward.
"Is there a man named Tidus here?"
"Um.. Yeah. What do you want with him, ya?"
"If he doesn't come with us" Yuna continued on from the priest, "There will be serious consequences."
Ooops! I am not a Guado basher - I just don't like them :-)
Sorry abot the short chapter and the crappy ending but it leads up to major confession time. Who does Tidus love more - Yuna or Rikku? All will be revealed next chapter! (or the one after that or the one after that or the one after that...)
