"Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our winner!" Becky said, cueing the DJ to play a drum roll through the speakers. Yuna's eyes were closed, her heart beating nearly as quickly as the sound effect itself. Gabriella stood quite calmly with her arms folded. She knew she was going to win. The pause was absolutely useless.

"Gabriella!" Becky then shouted, and Gabriella lit up. Yuna bowed her head, receiving an "in your face" smirk from Gabriella. "Sorry, chum, but you didn't win!" Becky then completed her sentence. Gabriella's jaw dropped. Yuna's eyes widened with delight. The audience cheered with excitement, now that the truth had been revealed. She smiled brightly, as Becky walked over with the glimmering trophy. It was rather large, and the on top was a golden-colored, metallic figure of a person break dancing. Yuna giggled at the figure on top, grasping the trophy and lifting it with pride. Gabriella looked absolutely furious.

"That's mine!" Gabriella shouted, charging at Yuna angrily. Yuna sidestepped just at the last moment, causing the sore-loser to rush past her. She whipped around. "You stole my prize!" She then cried out, until two security members quickly grabbed her and dragged her away. Yuna just raised an eyebrow at the crazed woman, then turning back to the audience with a grin.

"Congratulations, Yuna! I sincerely hope you will continue to shine!" Becky congratulated her quite honestly, applauding her. "Alright everyone, that's it for this competition. Remember, whatever you do, do it with a smile!" She cheerily concluded, winking and popping her left leg. The crowd dispersed and Becky had somehow managed to slip away unnoticed. The club's loud music was at it again, and people were enjoying themselves casually. Yuna scanned the crowd for her friends.

"Yunie!" Rikku called out, running up to the excited dancer, "That was awesome! You really showed that Gabriella freak!"

"What?" Yuna then replied, unknowing of what Rikku had just said. Paine shook her head, realizing it was useless to try and talk over the music. She tapped Rikku on the shoulder, then motioning towards the exit with her head. Rikku smiled, nodded, and grabbed Yuna's arm. The three made their way through the dance floor and exited.

Yuna and Rikku were giggling as they exited, and Paine finally spoke. "Nice job up there, Yuna," she congratulated her rather discreetly.

"Thank you," Yuna replied with a grin. Rikku nodded a few times, an even wider smile on her face.

"Ye-ah! You really showed that Gabriella girl who the real dancer was!" Rikku continued the praise.

"That girl…she was so rude," Yuna reflected, shaking her head in disbelief.

"It's called an ego," Paine told her knowingly. Rikku was about to let out another comment when the girls heard oncoming footsteps.

"Yuna, that was amazing!" then called Tidus' familiar voice. The three girls immediately turned to spot Tidus, Baralai, and Gippal, all of whom were looking rather impressed.

"Geez, Yuna, you really know how to move," Gippal told her, still quite in disbelief.

"They're right. That was great," Baralai coolly complemented her.

"Thank you, guys. It really was a lot of fun," Yuna admitted, smirking at Rikku.

"See, Yunie! I knew you'd like it," She stated, nudging Yuna lightly with her elbow. Paine simply rolled her eyes at Rikku, noting Baralai's smirk.

"Hey, let's go to my spot," Yuna then suggested eagerly. They all showed signs of approval in their own ways, and the group of six headed towards the lifts.

They exited out to the deck, all quite surprised by the sight of the evening. The staff had turned off a majority of the lights, and the majestic night sky was illuminated with stars. The pale, full moon seemed to watch over its small little specks of light. The air was filled with the wonderful fragrance of the ocean, a personal favorite of Yuna's. The wind was still heavy, whipping Yuna's hair around with ease. They made their way up to the tower, and they almost instinctively split into couples. Rikku and Gippal quickly made their way to the back together, while Paine and Baralai sat down on the Eastern side.

Yuna and Tidus exchanged glances, but they both looked away immediately. They both leaned against the railing, enjoying the sea breeze as their friends became intimate.

"Y'know, Yuna, you look…beautiful," Tidus complemented her whole-heartedly, nearly speechless from her presence alone.

"Thank you," Yuna simply responded, trying so hard not to fall for him.

"Are you okay?" He then asked her, curious as to her expression of despair. Yuna looked into his eyes.

"It's just an infatuation…that's all," Yuna thought to herself, trying so hard to not let his looks sway her decision.

"What's the schedule tomorrow?" Yuna suddenly asked him, wondering where the cruise was headed.

"Eh, I think the ship is stopping in Labadee tomorrow," He informed her. Yuna nodded with a grin. She was hoping to get to know Tidus a little more. "Why don't we hang out together? I'm sure Paine and Rikku are going to be spending time with Baralai and Gippal," Tidus then suggested, smiling back at Yuna.

"Of course. I'd love to," Yuna then answered, glancing back at the other girls.

As much as Yuna thought she would fall head over heels for Tidus that night, she was wrong. She got over her infatuation, and although she still found him attractive, she looked forward to getting to know him.

The night ended quite casually, and the girls returned to their long-awaited cabin.

"Ohhh, I'm so tired," Rikku stated, climbing up into her bunk bed. Within moments, the small blonde had passed out. Yuna quietly giggled in Rikku's expense.

"We have to wake up early tomorrow. We're meeting the guys for breakfast, after all," Paine then reminded Yuna, settling down on her twin bed. Yuna nodded at her, then laying on her own bed stomach-down. She pulled out her diary and flipped to her marked page.

Dear Diary,

I've gotten so close to the boy named Tidus, and he seems really sweet so far. I still need to get to know him a little better. I feel a little superficial sometimes, considering I really enjoy looking at him. I-I don't think I'm shallow, though…I hope I'm not…

Well, tomorrow we're going to Labadee, and I get to spend time with Tidus. It should be absolutely wonderful. I really hope he's as nice as he seems. I've never been to this particular place before, so I hope it's something new…

I should probably go to sleep, though. I'll need my rest.
