This Kiss
It was Tuesday morning, Lulu was at the club trying to work in extra hours, and everyone else was just chillin inside the house. Tidus and Wakka had went shopping and picked up a blow up pool bed for their pool. But instead of using it for swimming, they were surfing down the steps on it.
"Wooooooo!!!" Tidus yelled as he slid down the stairs, lying on his stomach on the bed. He landed right at Seymour's feet.
"You find this nonsense fun?" Seymour asked smirking to show he wasn't trying to be mean or to put Tidus down for his immaturity. His immaturity surprises me again.
"Yeah dude, boredom will drive you insane. Wanna try?" Tidus stood up and held out the halfway deflated pool bed.
"No thank you, it's almost entertaining just watching." And waiting for the time you fall and break your neck. Seymour said leaning back against the wall. Rikku was next she jogged up the stairs with the bed in her hand. Tidus reorganized the pillows at the end of the stairs.
"Yeeeeeee heeeeee!!!!" She screamed as she slid down the long flight of stairs and landed softly on the pillows at the end. Their stair case was wider than normal, at the top there was two large silver balls on the banister polls. The banister wrapped around in a circle. There were no walls so while standing upstairs you could look down at the people downstairs. The last bedroom that had been named the guest room was up there along with another bathroom and the extra sitting room. The room where all the camera men slept, edited tapes, and kept a lot of their equipment was also up there.
Lulu walked in the front door and witnessed what was going on. "What are you doing?" Do I live with a bunch of children?
"Try it Lulu its fun!!" Rikku said giggling. She handed the bed to Wakka.
"Wanna a try? I'll go down with you." Wakka said grinning. I could touch her then ya. Lulu shook her head no.
"That's fine, Wakka." She said walking past them all to the bathroom that was at the end of the hall. I'm not stupid.
Yuna then came out of the girls' room. She and Lulu had been in there chatting about her disaster of a first date. And Yuna had shared her difficulties with Seymour.
She walked up next to Tidus. "What's this?" she laughed at Wakka who nearly landed on his head trying to slide down the stairs backwards.
"Oh! Didn't see ya there, it's a new game. Bed surfing. You run up the stairs and slide down them on this new pool bed me n' Wakka bought." He said pointing out each object as he explained to her.
"Oh let me try!" she said reaching for the bed.
"Yuna, please, you may get hurt, dear." Seymour said gently wrapping his long fingers around her upper arm. She jerked her arm out of his grip and grabbed the bed. Damnit Seymour. You're almost as bad as my grandmother. She ran up the stairs and sat down normally on the bed.
"Wooooo hooooooo!!!" she screamed her voice vibrated as her butt roughly hit each stair. She then laughed once she hit the floor. "Seriously Seymour, you should worry so much. Try it."
"I will not act so foolishly." Seymour crossed his arms. Yuna and Tidus grinned at each other and each grabbed one of his arms.
"Hey! Yuna!" Seymour complained as they forced him up the stairs. "This is child's play." He said as they forced him to sit on the bed. "I am a grown ma…Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh." "n." he added as he hit he pillows at the end of the stairs. Hmph.
Tidus and Yuna were laughing so hard they had to sit down.
Seymour turned to them with his arms crossed frowning. It was only a minute that he was able to hold his stern frown before he started laughing as well. He climbed up the stairs and sat in between them.
"I must admit, it was a bit of fun." He finally admitted. "It is also quite hot outside, Yuna, what do you say we take this outside and use it for what it was made for?"
"I just ate Seymour, I don't want to swim." I don't want to swim with you. Yuna said fanning her face since it was so red from her laughing. Tidus ran his hand through his hair. God, I wish I could make that guy disappear.
"Auron needs to hurry and get back. I'm really gettin sick of him hoggin the SUV." Tidus said. "We could go riding around."
Seymour slipped his arm around Yuna. "Walking is better for you. Shall we take a walk around?" Seymour asked. I hope Tidus rejects my invite. I need time alone with Yuna.
"That sounds like a good idea, as long as we don't get lost ya?" Wakka said walking up the steps. "I'll go tell Lulu, and Rikku."
Meanwhile….
"Auron! You're lying to me. I will ask you this for the LAST time WHO IS QUISTIS!?!" Edea exploded.
I'd rather be buried in a pile of shit rather than to face her now. Auron sighed. "She's a girl I was seeing, but Edea I left her because I want to take things further with you." He lied. The other day he had just told Quistis he wanted to turn up the heat in there relationship.
"Well Auron, it's too late. You lied to me. Once a liar, always a liar. Get out!" She pointed to the door of her hotel room. "I'm leaving Las Vegas tomorrow anyway. This city is a world of sinners; you are no different from any other guy out there."
Auron sighed and stood up. Oh well, maybe you'll meet another. "That's fine Edea. I've got plenty of back up plans." He walked right past her and slammed the door on his way out.
Later that night, back at the house….
Everyone was exhausted from their walk, they did in fact get lost and walked five miles around in circles, then had to turn around and walk another five miles. Tidus, Yuna, and Seymour were sitting on the couch watching MTV's music videos. Tidus glanced over at Seymour who had fallen asleep with his head back against the couch.
"Hey Yuna, whatdya say we take a dip in the pool?" Tidus whispered pointing to her sleeping boyfriend. Ha! Got her now Seymour
They both slowly stood up and crept out of the living room. From Yuna's many experiences, she knew that Seymour was a very heavy sleeper so she wasn't the least bit worried. The two quickly changed into their swimming suits then snuck outside into the pool. The blue water seemed to glow with the bright pool lights shining underneath.
Yuna giggled softly. "I hope he doesn't wake up." Hell will break loose again if he does.
"Me either." This is my chance to tell her how I feel. He took her hand in his as they slowly walked down the steps, letting the chilling water rise higher and higher up their mid drifts. Yuna shivered.
"The water is so cold." She said through trembling lips.
"Wakka and I just changed it this afternoon. Just as it was cooling off today." Tidus explained he then disappeared under the water and reappeared standing right in front of Yuna.
She laughed and backed away from him not wanting to touch his cold wet body. He splashed her and laughed also. She splashed him back then stopped abruptly.
"Shhh!! We're going to wake up Seymour. All the windows are open. Lulu turned off the air conditioning since its cooler out."
"Oh right." Tidus said slowly moving closer to her. They were now in the deeper in so the water was up to his neck. "Yuna, I've been kinda wanting to get you alone."
"Really?" Yuna asked looking up at his bright ocean blue eyes. His wet blond hair sent little trickles of water down his face. He nodded.
"I really like you Yuna. All these women in Vegas, and I can only think of you. I know I may not be as manly as Seymour, but I…" Tidus stopped and looked at her. She dropped her head into her hands and started silently crying.
"I don't like him, Tidus. He's been trying to make me have sex with him. I'm almost afraid of him now, after how he attacked you that day." She said quickly wiping her tears away ashamed of crying. I like you Tidus. Only you.
He rested his hands on her shoulders and pulled her half naked body close to his. Her eyes widened as his lips first met hers, then they slowly closed. Tidus backed her against the wall of the pool and deepened the kiss as he entwined his fingers with hers on both hands. Oh God, finally. He thought as he let go of her hands and let them explore her body. His touch is far more intense than Seymour's.
Tidus broke the kiss turning his head the opposite way then sealing it again.
The sliding glass door slammed shut. Both Yuna and Tidus' bodies froze. Tidus wasn't even able to remove his lips from Yuna's….
Uh oh….What's going to happen next? The following chapter will be called CHAOS! And that's exactly what's going to be goin on.
Yeah I know I hate cliff hangers too, but this is for all the writers who have done it to me.
