3rd period, Science
Yuna came in panting, she had ran like crazy from the back of the school to the front within a minute. Why didn't Gippal even bother to wake her up from her silly trance? As soon as she set foot on the classroom the bell rang. Since she was already in class she wasn't tardy so she took her time to catch her breath and took her seat. She sat next to Rikku and behind Gippal landing noisily in the chair and letting out a big sigh that was heard across the classroom.
"Lady Yuna, I would appreciate it if you would stop being such a disturbance to the class" a blonde man wearing goggles that seemed to be around his twenties said in an angry voice as he gestured Yuna to take a book from the back shelf and start copying. She just ignored him crossing her arms and legs and glaring in his direction,luckilyMr. Buddy didn't notice. She just couldn't stand teachers.They always had topick on her. She had gotten to class on timeand taking her time to catch her breath was not such a huge crime was it?, specially when she had run what like seemed more than a mile in less than a minute.
Gippal just chuckled, Yuna was a sure one to defy teachers. She was always lucky and never got in trouble. He made sure the teacher wasn't staring and turned his head facing Yuna "Finally, I was starting to wonder if you would ever come. What took you so long?"
"Well if a certain someone had tried to wake me up from whatever I was dreaming about"
"I tried but you were certainly concetrated on thinking about that guy"
Yuna pretended not to hear the last thing Gippal said and drifted off thinking as she looked outside the window, Tidus acted so much like and looked like him, but Tidus seemed a little more thoughtful and... sweet, not to mention finer, He looked rather innocent, like he wouldnt hurt anyone's feelings, but she had shun herself from showing any kind of affection towards anyone after what happened. She stopped thinking about that and looked around the classroom to see if the class had started working on something but she only saw the teacher giving a boring lecture about matter. As she looked around she saw Rikku rocking in her chair, twirling one of her braids and trying to catch Gippal's attention, however Gippal just ignored her and pretended to take a lot of interest in the lecture. She saw Wakka trying to throw a rubber band in Seymour's direction. She looked back at Rikku and noticed she was ripping some papers that appeared to be her homework?"weird girl"
Just when she was about to turn back to the window she facedAna's pair of dark brown eyes who were certainly giving a dirty look, butYuna wasn't sure if it was directed towards her or to one of Ana's so called friends that stabbed everyone on the back and then flashed hypocritical smiles at them. She just decided to face the window again instead. The sun was getting intense upon her and all of a sudden she didn't feel so good. She stood up from her chair and headed to the teacher's desk "Can I get a pass? I want to call home, im not feeling so good"
"Wait a sec. Everyone take out your homework please, Ana would you be so kind to pick it for me?"
Mr Buddy started asking in a jokingly tone :"Raise your hand if homework was lost, buried, eaten by a dog -"
"-and still managed to turn it in!!!" Rikku said cutting off the teacher and raising her hand, at the same time waving the other one with the pieces of paper that had been ripped by no other than herself earlier.
Yuna headed back to her desk took out her homework from her bag and when she was about hand it to the teacher Ana gripped her paper tightly almost ripping it and whispered in a threatening voice barely audible, that only them two could hear "Hand me the paper you bitch" Yuna was astonished, what was wrong with her?Yuna didnt take the threat and snatched the paper hastily from her and returned her a dirty look, and before turning her back on her she said "Bitches are dogs, dogs bark, bark are apart of trees, tress are part of nature, nature is beauty; and the way I see it thank you for the compliment" Ana just stood there shockedfor a moment and theflung her brown, dry, curlyhair behind her as if to indicate that what Yuna had said didn't bother hereven thoughthe rage was eating her up inside.
Although Yuna knew that what she said was not quiet true, she still felt proud of herself,she had managed to stand up to Ana and leave her speechless, something that was not usual because somehow she was known always for winning even the stupidest arguments. Heading to the teacher's desk and handing him the paper she said in arather annoyed tone "Can I go now?!!"
Why did the teachers always have to be so lazy and send him to pick their boxes at the main office instead of doing so themselves? sure he was strong but it got tiring after a while to be walking up and down the stairs of a huge school. As Tidus was heading back towards his language arts class with a loadful of heavy boxes he saw Yuna, she didn't look like she was feeling too good, she looked rather sick "Hey Yuna!" he yelled out from across the hall.
But she didnt seem to hear him, she touched her forehead and was walking with a tremendous little amount of balance and looked ready to faint. Tidus threw the boxes to the floor and catched her just when her headwas ready to hit the ground. He swept her slowly off her feet and decided he would carry her to the nurse's room, she hadn't fainted but looked like she was about to and yet she persisted "I'm fine you can let me down now"
"As if"
"No I'm serious I can walk by myself just fine"
"You gotta be joking you look worst than my grandma" Tidus just couldn't understand women, one minute they are fainting and you are there to stop them from falling, and the next minute they are snapping at you and telling you to let them down. He looked down to see a very offended Yuna in his arms staring back at him, was he telling her she looked old? and as if reading her mind he said "No i didn't mean it that way, I meant your health condition"
"Hmph! You better have" said Yuna with relief in her voice
Their argument was interrupted by a ringing bell and tons of students coming out of the classrooms and pouring into the hallways, many giving them weird glances as they passed by "Oh Yevon this is so embarrasing" Yuna was blushing furiously, But Tidus seemed indifferent about the whole situation and kept walking towards the nurse's room.Although embarrased, Yuna secretly was enjoyining herself in Tidus' arms. He carried her with such ease that Yuna felt herself as light as a feather. As he walked; Yuna slowly placed her head on his chest, when she did so, she looked up at him, he didn't seem to mind. She felt a warmth, a warmth that made her feel like she could just melt in that same spot, she felt that as long as she was in those arms nothing could possibly go wrong, and she also sensed a strange feeling, a feeling that was not possible to describe, a feeling she had never felt before, not even with.. .
When they got to the room, he laid her on one of the beds next to a window in which a tree blocked the sun's rays and let in a cool breeze. He sat next to her,and slowly started leaning his face closer to hers and stopped when they were only few milimeters apart. Yuna thought he was about to kiss her and closed her eyes abruptly turning her head to the side, she knew she'd make a fool out of herself if such thing happened; simply because of the fact she didn't know how to act around him. Tidus looked hurt as she did this, all he did was nothing but raise his hand and touch her forehead gently, stroking some of her hair out of the way so he could have a better view of her eyes, but he couldn't because they were still closed. "You have high fever..., I dont think we can go out tonight from the looks of it. . .Hold on I'm going to call a nurse" A very disappointed Tidus stood up from the bed, and as he did, he noticed a small cell phone slip out of Yuna's pocket and picked it up.
"What are you doing?" said Yuna giving him a confused look
"Just entering my cell phone number, give me a call whenever you need anything" he handed the cell phone to Yuna and headed to the door.
"But that's not-" Before she could finish Tidus left the room in a hurry he was going to be late for his fourth period class " -my cellphone" not long after a nurse came in "Are you feeling ok dear?'
"Yeah, I'm feeling better, thanks"
Yuna picked up the cell phone and called her dad, Braska, to pick her up but as usual he was too busy to answer her calls. She called her mom she was busy at work also but at least she said she'd pick her up in 15 minutes during her lunch break. When Yuna finished her call she heard a lot of commotion outside and she remembered it was the lunch hour and she got up and looked down the window. Only to see Tidus chattering with some friends, he sure knew how to make them fast since he was sorrounded by a large crowd. Obviously most were girls, and was it her or she felt a little jealousy?Just then she wondered if she could text message him from Rikku's cell phone, she typed a text message and sent it to the number he had saved on the cell earlier.
Tidus cell phone vibrated, he opened it and read
"Look up"
-Yuna
He looked up and saw Yuna staring at him with aslight smile on her face. She sure seemed a whole lot betterthan she had before though. The breeze was moving her short hair making her look radiant and her bi colored eyes looked as bright as they ever had. Tidus was awed, even from such a distance Yuna looked as beautiful as ever, he just grinned and waved gesturing her to come down and join him. Yuna excitedly turned around and just when she was about to come out of the nurse's room she almost crashed into her mom
"Honey are you alright?, I was worried what's wrong?"
"Nothing just had a headache that's all"
"Let me take you home so you can rest, you must have had a long day"
To tell the truth Yuna wasn't very excited to see her mother,in fact she found herself longing to be next to Tidus, she was thinking of telling her mother that but shook the thought out of her head as she said
"Yuna I don't have all day"
She knew her mom would only get mad if she said such thing
When they were out of the school and Yuna was entering her mom's car she looked back and could see the school field and Tidus staring at her he was smiling but Yuna could tell it wasn't a real smile, she still smiled back and entered the car not taking her eyes of him, damn he sure looked fine even when he was upset. She was regrettingcalling her mom she was feeling a lot better, now all she wanted was to be next to Tidus once more. From the looks of it she was going to have a very long week, her date was cancelled, and what was up with Ana?. When she was halfway to her house, the cell phone rang, she just stared at it thinking wether to pick it up or not she thought if she picked it up she would have one mad Rikku yelling at her because she took the cell phone along with her. She finally decided to pick it up and was relieved to see a text message instead
"You seem to be feeling better now, I'm glad but I still think you need to rest. Just in case, maybe we should change our date to let's say Saturday noon?"
-Tidus
Yuna closed it and got into deep thought, she sure wanted to go out with him, but not if she acted as stupid as she usually did when he was around.
Tidus opened the door and kicked off his shoes, finally he was home and out of the hell they called school. he dropped his bookbag on the floor and slowly went up to his room, he stripped down to a pair of boxers and threw himself on bed. He started going over earlier events, Yuna was such a mystery to him, he didnt know much about her, heck he couldnt even tell if she liked him at all. In Spanish she felt rather annoyed by his presence, but she sure didn't when he grabbed her hand,Agrin spreading ashe thought about it.But then again she felt embarrased of being seen in his arms when she was sick, but not long after she didn't pick much argument, he could have sworn she rested her head in his chest with a small but noticeble smile on her face. But not long after when he tried to feel her temperature she pulled away from himratherquickly as if she didn't want to be near him, but then again she did seem happy when she saw him before heading home; she didn't take her eyes of him for one seond. But what had Wakka meant by she being bad news?. He cut out his own thoughts and decided to get himself something, thinking too long on the same subject made his head hurt terribly.
"Hmmm" wondered Yuna aloud. She had never felt this nervous towards a guy before, she would usually act cooly around them. Around Tidus everything was different, she would lose the ability to talk confidently, her hands would get sweaty, and often she would slightly tremble. But she couldnt help it, those big blue eyes of him just made her freeze to the spot in which she standed on, and his golden hair! she felt like running up to him just to run her fingers playfully through it; and his physique practically made her swoon if she stared at him too long. These were the reasons she was having second thoughts about going out on a date with him, she was too confused.
"Hmm what?"
It was Saturday morning, and Rikku was at Yuna's house. She was being her usually cheery bubbly-self and as usual was bombarding Yuna with questions. "Ahem" Yuna however, turned on her computer and kept ignoring her cousin unselfcounciously, "Helloooo!! I'm here you know, don't just ignore me!"
"Oh sorry Rikku, didn't notice u were there"
"No, really ¬¬"
Yuna turned on her computer to see if she got any emails, she checked her inbox and saw she got one butshe decided she'd check it later. She logged in her messenger, seeing Lenne logged in cheered her up.She was one of Yuna's best pals in which she could confide just about anything to.She was very wise toowhen it came to these matters of love and such.
-hey Lenne
-hi, so girl spill the beans, what has been going on between u and Tidus lately?!
-hehe rumors sure spread out fast t-you guys going out yet?
- That's what I was precisely going to talk about just now. I dont think so, not yet, you see I dont know how to act around him and its sort of awkward. He asked me out on a date but I dont want to be too quick to answer he might think I'm clingy or something.
-Don't worry about playing hard to get, just be yourself that's the best you can do, because if you pretend to be someone you are not you wouldn't only be lying to him, you'd be lying to yourself"
-Thanks Lenne
-anytime, so you are going to say yes right?right?
-hmm lol I'll see
-Whatever you decide just fill me in with the details later k? ig2g bye
-bye
Not long after Yuna recieved a message from Chris?
"Rikku did you?-"
"Sorry Yunie, he wouldn't stop bugging me until I gave him your email adress heheh"
-Sup?
-oh hey
-So you ready for today?
-well I would like to know where are you taking me to first
-I was thinking maybe taking you to the beach and surf
-surf? you surf?
-yep, I'm up to any type of aquatic sports
-I see, well.. I dont know nothing about surfing so probably I'll ruin all the fun
-I could teach you
-well...I'll see,
-Hey before you go...., you dropped something back at school
-what was it?
-my jaw! It'd be nice if you came by and fixed it sometime.
sooo I'll be seeing you at noon then?
-lol u promise u wont make fun of me ?
-I promise
-Even if i'm the worst surfer that ever lived?
-Even if iyou arethe worst surfer that ever lived, which I highly doubt as most likely
-lol
-I'll be seeing you then
Rikku was reading the conversation and then she proposed in a cheerful voice: "Hey since you are having problems being around Tidus, hmmm well"
"Well what?"
"Maybe I should come with you to make the arrangements necessary so you guys have a fun time"
"Oh no" Yuna thought "Having Rikku along in the date could just mean one thing: chaos"
"So whaddaja say -?"
"Yuna dear, there's someone at the door, I think its for you"
Yuna opened the door slowly, thanking yevon for whoever it was that had stopped her from answering Rikku's question. She was feeling nervous, slightly queasy at the same time. When she finished opening the door she thought if she was fainting at the sight ofTidus before boy was she wrong. She had to clasp tightly to the wall. In front of her stood a shirtless Tidus only wearing swimming trunks anda pair ofsandals. Yuna was awed she had never seen such a fine guy as that one standing by her door, his perfectly toned skin and his so ever radiant smile had her on the verge of falling, just so she would fell what was like to be swept off her feet once more by those well built up arms and feel that warmth that compared to nothing she had ever felt before.
Tidus felt as like he was trying to keep his eyes from falling out. Yuna was wearing minishortsmade out of jeanand a very tighttank topthat could out line her bikini underneath. His mouth got dry and was trying to force something to come out of his mouth, but all he did was stutter.
"Yuna y..y..y"
Yuna however, was busy looking for her bag and didn't notice Tidus acting stupidly in front of her "Ok the sooner we got out of here the better"
"huh?"
"Let's just go" Yuna pulled Tidus by the arm and got him in the car in a hurry " Start up the car!! hurry hurry hurry! Trust me it's for the best"
"what ever you say"
Tidus pulled the car out of the yard as fast as he could and left immediatly as Yuna had instructed him. He could hear someone shouting in the back as he sped up the car, driving just at the speed limit. "Did I hear someone shouting?"
Yuna laughed nervously and responded "No not at all that was just a um "
"a monkey? -"
"0o sure i guess you could say that"
A/N: Letting you guys know I'm not fond of this chapter at all, it was kind of a fill in, and Yes I know i said I was going to write about the date and I did but it got too long so I'm going to put it up next chapter and I'm going to try to make it extra long and fluffy oh yes very fluffy indeed lol to make up for this one :D Once again I thank all my reviewers for taking their time to write a comment - , you all give me inspiration to keep writing.
