Ochako107: Thank you, I really enjoyed bringing this ship's image to life

RollerCoaster217: I really appreciate your comment! Yuna enjoys writing in her diary before she goes to bed, so keep an eye out for that! Oh, well, the Titanic sunk on the 14th of April but that's also my birthday as well. It's my way of connecting with the main character, I s'pose :-)

Princess Kairi: Wow, I'm very flattered. I'm proud to bring you and everyone else the next chapter!

Thank you all so much, I love reading your reviews. It shows me you enjoy the story and makes me want to continue

And now for Chapter Three!

It was around six thirty, and Yuna wanted some time to herself. She would pretend she was full, just to get away from them for a little while. "Alright!" Rikku began with excitement, "Dessert's next! Let's see what these chefs can cook up!"

"I'm not really hungry, you guys. I'm going to go up to the pool deck and look around," Yuna informed them, excusing herself from the table. She stood, walking across the velvety carpet and out of the dining room. What truly was on her mind was that boy. She glared, quite angry with herself. Why am I so upset? Yuna made her way to the elevator, grinning at the few people who were not in dinner. As she entered, she leaned against the bar, folding her arms. She headed down to deck two, and made her way back to the room.

Yuna left in her casual outfit, and she decided she'd actually go to the pool deck like she told the others. The elevator ride up was a lengthy one, and she could not help but admire the Royal Promenade during the evening. The main lights had been substantially dimmed, and spotlights of fluorescent colors had been turned on. Yuna smiled a little, but a reminder of her thoughts brought her back into negativity.

As she exited out onto the deck, she was struck by whipping winds. Yuna made her way down the deck, noting the number of couples strolling about. She frowned, trying to find some place to think. Some place where she could be alone. She spotted a mini bar in the distance, and just above it was a balcony that stuck out like the thumb of God. It's worth checking…

She made her way up a flight of wooden steps, tightly folding her arms. It's getting kind of cold. Just as her suspicion confirmed, the platform was abandoned. There were several lounge chairs scattered across the sunbathing balcony, half of which had been folded by the fierce wind. Resting her arms against the wooden railing, she sighed.

What's wrong with me? Does no guy want to meet me? Oh gosh, I think I'm going to end up alone. I can't let anyone know I feel this way. I'll seem completely pathetic. If only I had never seen that boy. Maybe then I could at least enjoy myself. Okay, just pull yourself together, Yuna. I'll just, forget about him. Yes, that's it.

"And I thought I was the only one who didn't care about these overrated formal nights,"

Yuna was shocked, jolting around to see who it was. She certainly did not recognize the voice. Yuna gasped quietly when she saw the origin of the voice. It was…him!

"Sorry I scared you. My name's Tidus," He introduced himself warmly, extending his hand.

"I-I wasn't scared. I was simply startled," Yuna protected the dignity of her first-impression.

"Whatever you say," Tidus responded with a grin. Yuna smiled back at him. For the first time since she had seen Tidus, she was happy. The sparkle in his bright blue eyes drew the attention of her multi-colored orbs.

"My name is Yuna," She finally responded to his original statement. She grabbed his hand and shook it politely, secretly enjoying the warmth his skin gave off.

"It's kind of chilly, don't you think?" Tidus asked her with a shiver. Yuna giggled and nodded. "C'mon, let's get to a warmer part of the ship. What do you say?" He invited her with his open palm.

"I don't know…I'm kind of tired. I should probably go back to my room and catch up with my friends," Yuna declined with reason.

"Oh, you're here with friends? Me too. Gippal and Baralai," He told her honestly.

"I'm here with my cousin Rikku and my friend Paine," She informed him.

"We should all hang out tomorrow, especially since we're going to be at sea all day," Tidus suggested, smirking.

"That sounds nice, Tidus. We'll meet you guys here around noon, alright?"

"Sounds good to me, Yuna,"

Regretfully, Yuna made her way to the flight of steps. She looked back at Tidus, grinning and waving. Oh how I'll miss those eyes tonight…

"G'night, Yuna!" Tidus called out to her. "Sweet dreams," He then muttered.

Yuna entered her room to find it pitch black. She could make out shapes and figures, but nothing beyond that. Evidently, the bunk bed had been lowered from the ceiling and Rikku had taken it. Paine took one of the cots. I guess I'm not the only one who was tired. Yuna walked over to her cot and dropped. She pulled out her diary from beneath her pillow, and grabbed a pen provided by the cruise.

April 14th

Dear Diary!

The cruise has been so wonderful so far! I haven't acted like it, but I really am enjoying the atmosphere. During the emergency demonstration today, I saw this boy. I don't know what it was about him, but he really drew my attention. We had the formal dinner tonight, and Rikku and Paine looked splendid. I was surprised Paine went along with getting all dressed up! I left dinner early, and headed up to a little balcony on the pool deck. My own little place to think. Strangely enough, the boy from before showed up! I was so shocked. His name is Tidus, and he's a really nice guy. I can't believe I left him there! We could've gotten closer...oh well. We're going to meet up tomorrow around noon, and I'm bringing Paine and Rikku. I can't wait! Anyway, I'm fighting my closing eyelids. I need to get my rest. Good night!

-Yuna (Who can't wait to see Tidus!)

Yuna slipped the diary beneath her pillow once more, and within moments, she had slipped away into her slumber…

There was extreme warmth everywhere, as if the sun had been gently pouring its rays down upon Yuna. There was a flash of light, and she found herself on the cruise's pool deck, grasping the railing and grinning widely. The wind whipped her neck-length hair about, as she found herself struggling to hang on. Her smile faded away, as the wind intensified. She panted as she felt herself lifted off of her feet. She was going to die! Suddenly, the wind came to a strange halt. Yuna felt a pair of muscular arms wrap around her, and she looked up. It was Tidus. "I'll never let you go," He told her sweetly. Then, she felt a strange prodding…

"Yunieeeee!"
