Time go back.
Paine and I jumped off the airship only to realize we hadn''t gone anywhere cool. Were now in Bevelle. Great just what we needed.
""How about we go and see Baralai?""
Paine let out a sigh behind me. ""Because I don''t want to have to deal with that smart ass right now""
I turned around and jumped on her."" To bad were going to go and see him whether you like it or not""
Paine just glared at me and aloud her self to be lead away to the building where I knew Baralai was.
I walked into his office first. ""Hey you……happy to see us?""
He got up from his desk looked around and then said."" Either your going crazy or your hiding them.""
Paine then walked into the room and right away I could see the difference in the way Baralai was acting.
""Hey you guys I''m just going to go get a drink ok……?""
I walked out of the room closing the door behind me. But I wanted to know what was going to b talked about. So I leaned against the door and listened in.
Baralai spoke first.
""How have you been Paine?""
""Just fine…….''
""How come you never want to talk to me anymore?""
""I don''t know ok……""
There was a long pause and then I heard him say this,
""Paine, I Love you. Why don''t you understand?""
""I do understand but the thing is……would you have time for me?""
""For you Paine always.""
""But right now Rikku and I are Traveling and there would be no time to see you""
""Well then.thats a problem.""
I chose that moment to come running in. I bounded in to the room like I didn''t know anything. I acted the way I always do but I know Paine knew something. And I was about to give myself away.
""You know you shouldn''t stay in this office during nice weather, why not come with us……. I was going to pick up Gippal on the way……and I don''t want Paine to feel like she''s alone in this world so how about you come with us?""
I saw the look in Paine''s eyes as I said this. It looked like she was about to kill Baralai looked at me.
""Rikku I don''t know……it would be hard.""
""You have no choice your coming.""
At that point I knew my respect points had gone down a lot. Well who cares. If Paine knew that Baralai and I have been planning this for months now. She would kill us both.
After having the slow boy pack, we set off to go to where I once lived. Home.
""We''re here……."" I yelled this as I ran off the ship.
Paine and Baralai were taking their dear sweet time with getting off the ship.
""I''m going to go and get Gippal……I''ll meet you back here in a few ok?""
With out a look back I ran off, off to find Gippal.
I was running around like I was an idiot……Wait I am. Damn I need something else. Oh never mind.
At the time I wasn''t paying much attention to where I was going and before I knew it I was on my ass shocked out of hell.
""Well if it isn''t Cid''s little girl.""
Wait I knew that voice, and only one person calls me that. Time to pounce.
""Damn you jackass.""
"" What I don''t even get a hello?""
""What you should get is slapped, but I''m feeling nice to day.""
""Ok then whets wrong with you?""
Before he had a chance to respond I jumped on him and began to pull him back to the ship.
""Umm Rikku where are you taking me?""
""You''re coming with us……we''re off to find something to do with our life''s.""
""Yeah ok, you have fun with that.""
""You''re coming with us……so there.""
The sad thing was he didn''t put up a fight so I''m guessing he missed me. Kinda like I missed him. I dragged him to the ship where the others should have been but then I remembered I told them I would be back in a few hours. They probley went off to do shopping. So I took that chance to chat a little with the smartass.
"" So why are you coming with me with out a fight?""
"" Rikku I''ve missed you a lot……. and I want to get you back for all those smartass remarks.""
As he said that there was a look in his eyes that I didn''t want to know what it meant. But in away I wanted to know, but then again…….
""Ain''t that cute.""
""You know it is it''s me.""
I just laughed at him and walked on to the airship. And he followed.
End of chapter two.
