Hook Up #1 Fight #1
"Ooo! Who left this?" Rikku asked Lulu who was still sitting on the bed.
Lulu stood up and straightened out her clothes. "Seymour did." She said. I know he doesn't like her after she slept with that airhead Tidus
"Really?" she took a sip and smiled. "Mmm this is good! SEYMOUR!!!" She ran down the hall with the cup in her hand. Seymour was in the kitchen with Yuna again making out his grocery list.
"Yes ma'am?" Seymour asked with fake politeness. Is your milk shake good?
Yuna just smiled at her to hold back her laughter as she took another sip.
"This is really good, thanks." Rikku said patting him on his shoulder. He looked at Yuna and they exchanged grins.
Tidus came in through the back kitchen door. "Hey guys what's goin on?" He pulled a chair and sat down next to where Yuna was standing. Rikku sat across from him at the table and looked up at Yuna and Seymour.
"I will prepare dinner for us tonight." Seymour stated. He glanced at Tidus who was gazing at Yuna. Look all you want. She will be mine!
He continued to scribble down the grocery list.
"You're a good cook?" Tidus asked. "I don't know many guys that are good at cooking. I'm the microwave king!"
Yuna and Rikku both made a similar giggle. "I'm not much of a cook either, but my Pop's a great cook. He had to raise us kids alone." Rikku said starting off cheerfully but ending her sentence sadly. Everyone looked at her not really knowing how to respond. Yuna understood how she felt, but didn't want to comfort her. Good for you bitch now get out of here so I can say something to Tidus without you adding your ½ cent in! Yuna smiled slightly to hide her evil thoughts.
"Would you like to come with me?" Seymour turned to Yuna. "It would be done much faster if there were two of us." I don't want you speaking to him while I'm gone. Shit! Lulu's coming too…
Yuna saw his smile turn into a troubled look. "Sure…uh..I'll go." Is he…does he have... no Yuna he's just being nice. "Is something wrong?"
"No… I just remembered I told Lulu she could come too. With three people the job is surely to be done the quickest." He smiled again and gently took her hand.
Tidus rubbed his forehead and sighed. She's with him I bet…Why him? He's just weird! Rikku interrupted his thoughts.
"Wanna take a dip in the hot tub before dinner?" she asked leaning across the table and running her fingers through his hair. He's such a cutie, but I really shouldn't be falling for a roommate I don't want things to be sour in the house.
"Nah….I think I'm just gonna shower real quick. Wakka and I've been playing basketball; it's hot as hell out there." He got up leaving Rikku sitting there by herself.
"No, son, I won't be hooking up on TV." Auron said over the phone. He chuckled. "There's a couple young girls in the house I'll bring ya one home, how about that?" He chuckled again. "Allright son, stay out of trouble and no parties in the house!" He hung up and sighed. Rikku was heading towards the phone to call her dad.
"Hey Auron. Who were you talkin to?" she asked laughing and hitting him on the shoulder. I wonder how old he his. Is that gray hair?
"My son, he's around your age." Auron added quickly as if to show her he had no interest in her. She must be at least 17.
Yuna put on her heels again and left with Lulu and Seymour. "Who's driving?" Yuna asked.
"I will." Seymour said picking up the keys and holding the door open for the ladies.
An hour later Seymour and the two ladies were back home. Seymour started dinner while everyone else sat in the living room and talked.
"So uh..Yuna. I…" Tidus began as he sat next to her on the couch. Rikku threw herself into his lap. Why's he always trying to talk to her?
Yuna's temper had reached its bowling point now, but she tried desperately to keep it calm. Grrr!!! Oh my God this little bitch is trying to keep me away from him!
Yuna cleared her throat. "Rikku, Tidus was trying to say something to me." She said as politely as possible while glaring needles into Rikku's skin.
Uh Excuse me? Bitch… Rikku slid off his lap and continued to look at him and Yuna. Tidus scratched his head and tried to continue. "Yuna… would you like to go to a club sometime, other than our work, ya know." He laughed.
Rikku shifted around a little. Oh no, he likes her! Tidus! You nearly f%# me then take her out to dinner!! "Sounds great Tidus all three of us can go."
Yuna glared at her again. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. Calm down calm down. Tidus looked down at her and she quickly changed her glare into a sweet smile. "Actually I think three is a crowd, and there would one odd person out while dancing." Yuna pointed out still keeping her calm sweet voice.
"You should take Seymour then. Aren't you two like an item or something?" Rikku said loudly purposely so everyone even Seymour in the kitchen could hear. He dropped his pan and it clattered loudly on the floor.
Yuna's face reddened in anger and embarrassment. That's it!
Yuna stood. "You don't know anything you stupid little bitch!!" Everyone gasped. Seymour dropped his knife, almost cutting himself as he reached to pick it up.
"Don't call me a bitch you slut!!" Rikku stood and shoved Yuna's shoulders.
"Slut!? You should talk you f%#in whore!!" Yuna bitch slapped Rikku's face. Rikku growled and tackled Yuna to the ground. Yuna pushed Rikku off of her and grabbed her neck.
Seymour ran in from the kitchen with his apron on. "Girls! Yuna!" He bent down and tried to pry Yuna off Rikku. Tidus helped by trying to pull Rikku away from Yuna. Eventually the two men separated the girls.
"You stupid bitch!!" Yuna yelled at Rikku.
"You're just jealous that I got to Tidus first and you're left with the blue haired tall freak!!" Rikku yelled suddenly her stomach started rumbling. Seymour glared at her. He'd been called that before, it didn't really bother him. Freak could mean so many other things.
"Don't let her call you that!!" Yuna yelled to Seymour who still had his arms wrapped around her waist holding her against him. He was about to say something to Rikku but she cut him off with a loud fart. Wakka laughed loudly "Nice one Rikku."
"HA! Serves you right bitch!! We put milk in your shake!" Yuna yelled trying to pull away from Seymour but not succeeding.
Rikku tried to yell back at her but she let out a man's belch. She covered her mouth, and then tore away from Tidus as she ran into the bathroom.
"Rikku you ok!?" Tidus called leaving the room to follow her.
After a minute Seymour realized that he was still holding Yuna there and quickly let go. She turned to him and smiled shyly still a little embarrassed about what Rikku had said. Yuna liked Seymour; he had been very nice to her. They heard sizzling in the kitchen. Seymour broke his stare away from Yuna and looked towards the kitchen. "Oh the dinner!"
Yuna giggled and ran after him. Screw Tidus if he's gonna stick up for that bitch! He may be cute but he's not worth it. I think Seymour has a crush on me anyway. That look in his eyes just now…
Lulu was watching nearby. Wakka was seated next to her on the couch. "Whaddya think about that ya?" he asked her. She smiled.
"I could sense the rising tension; I just wasn't sure what it was about." I can't believe they were fighting over that silly Tidus boy. Now Seymour, he's something to fight for, Yuna better keep her hands off or she'll be in it with me too. Lulu smiled at that thought. It was obvious Wakka liked her, but he just wasn't her type. Not yet anyway she didn't know much about him.
"I was quite surprised myself. The ladies just seemed so pleasant." Auron said. "Especially Yuna."
Lulu and Wakka nodded in agreement.
"It smells great." Yuna said walking into the kitchen. Seymour smiled at her. "It's almost done." He said flipping over a piece of fried chicken.
She stood next to him and watched him tend to the chicken. "Can I help? I've been cooking for myself since I was 15."
"Hmm. You can prepare the salad." He said pointing to the head of lettuce he had yet to cut up.
"Where are you from?" Yuna asked trying to strike up a conversation.
"I'm from Northern California." He said trying not to be too specific. She would never be able to visit him at his home, there was too much there he didn't want her to see.
"Oh I'm from Hawaii." She put all the cut up lettuce into a bowl and added cucumbers, radishes, and cru tans to it. "Why did you decide to come onto this show?"
"I just wanted to make friends." He answered. "Why did you?"
"Same reason. I'm usually very shy in public; it's hard to make friends." She said standing close to him again after she finished the salad.
Seymour had finished his chicken, corn, and green beans.
He turned to her surprise by how close she was standing. "Dinner is complete. I'll make the desert later."
Yuna laughed. "I bet Rikku's not gonna make it to dinner." He joined her laughter then a long silence followed.
"Uh maybe we should tell the others dinner's done, before it gets cold." Yuna suggested moving back a couple of steps. Seymour called the rest of the gang in for dinner. Everyone but Rikku showed up and they enjoyed Seymour's cooking.
"Ok people we've got to start setting up clean up days. I'll do the clean up the rest of the week, then its someone else's turn." Auron said collecting everyone's dishes and placing them in the sink.
"I agree to that. I cannot stand to live in a dirty smelly house." Lulu said standing up and pushing her chair in.
"Let's start a movie." Wakka said standing up beside her. And cuddle on the couch ya
"Sorry about Rikku earlier." Tidus said quietly.
"It's ok." Yuna replied. "Maybe you should go check on her." I didn't mean that…
Everyone migrated into the living room then everyone but Lulu and Wakka went to their bedrooms. Both of them were huge horror movie fans so they decided to start a scary movie. Auron went out, Tidus finally got Rikku to leave the bathroom, and Yuna and Seymour were in their bedrooms. Yuna showered and washed her hair, she put on some purple pajamas and slippers. Seymour had taken off his over shirt and relaxed on his bed with a book. Yuna stopped inside his and Wakka's room. "Seymour?"
"Yes, Yuna?" he asked setting his book down and sitting up.
She smiled shyly and sat beside him on the bed. "Everyone else seems to have their own thing going. I thought I'd just come hang out with you."
"You'd want to hang out with me?" Seymour asked as if he were shocked. How about marry me. You'd do that too? She wouldn't…
"Of course." Yuna giggled. Seymour got a whiff of her freshly washed hair scent as she leaned on him.
"I heard Rikku yell that she thought we were a couple." Seymour said putting his hand on her back. "That's...not really a bad thought is it?"
Yuna hesitated to answer not really knowing exactly what he meant. "No that's not a bad idea."
"Well?" Seymour asked he felt his cheeks slightly warm and hoped they didn't appear red.
"Well what?" Yuna asked smiling up at her. Her blushing was not hid. Is he asking me out?
"Would you like to be my uh..girlfriend I guess you people call it?" Seymour asked putting his arm around her allowing her to smell his fresh fried chicken scent.
"Umm sure." Yuna said.
"Are you sure?" He asked. I will not mention Tidus. I hope you have lost your feelings for him after today.
"Yes I'm sure." She nodded. Before she could say another word Wakka came into the room ruining the moment by asking loudly,
"Seymour!? Have you seen my deodorant, Lulu says I smell funny. Tryna put da moves on her tonight ya? Gotta be feeling fresh ya?"
Two "ya" sentences in a row, Wakka. I can't take it! Seymour thought."No, Wakka I haven't seen it."
"Damn!" Wakka exclaimed looking around the room. "Ah! Found it!" he put some on quickly and literally ran back in there to Lulu.
The next 7 chapters will be named after the characters and follow just them and their thoughts all day so we can get to know each of them better. Whoever guessed it you're right. The first hook up was SeymourxYuna, that won't be either of their last. I added in to mark their thoughts my italics didn't show up!
