A/N: Hey here's the next chapter and I'd like to thank my reviewers! And to the couple of reviewers that asked, Camp went pretty well but I didn't meet any guys, oh well! Oh, And sorry I won't be having Yuna push Seymour off a cliff!
She could have kept running but she had to confront her father to find out the truth.
The moment that she entered her house Yuna screamed for Braska.
As he appeared she immediately yelled, "Tell me the truth!"
"I didn't think that you would return so fast Yuna." Braska said quietly with a sigh.
"I didn't want to. You've lied to me since I was born." Yuna could barely keep her voice from shaking. "But I want you to tell me exactly what happened. Why isn't Kaila my mother?"
Braska sighed and then sat down in the couch. "Our marriage was suffering. We had just discovered that your mother could never have children and I was very disappointed. I went to a bar and there was a lovely woman named Yunalesca there. One thing led to another and…I slept with her." Braska stopped and looked up at Yuna whose face was very pale.
"After that night I didn't hear from her for a few months. But one day she appeared at my doorstep and said that she was pregnant with my child. I had hope that Kaila would never find out what I had done but she did and for some reason she forgave me. Yunalesca died during childbirth and Kaila and I decided that we would tell you that Kaila was your mother."
Yuna hated to hear Braska saying such things and she looked up with tears in her eyes. "So you lied to me. Thanks, you're a great father." With that said Yuna turned and ran out of the house, grabbing the keys and quickly jumping into Braska's car. He didn't try to stop her.
"I don't know where to go." Yuna said to herself nerviously as she drove in the dark night. Rikku and Lulu… The past couple of weeks they hadn't offered Yuna any support. They hadn't stood by her. In fact the person that had tried Yuna had pushed away.
"Maybe… He will help me." Yuna whispered as a tear slid down her face. She was amazed that she could still cry. She would have thought that all of her tears would have been used up.
As she drove up Tidus' driveway she was relieved to see that one of the lights were on. "Please let him be home…" She whispered. She tried the doorbell but after a few minutes of waiting she tried the door and was surprised to see that it wasn't locked. She slowly crept into the house and saw that one of the upstairs lights were on. What the heck am I doing?
Yuna slowly opened the door and was so relieved to see Tidus in his room. He was doing a few flips across the floor and for the first time in awhile Yuna felt a small smile come across her lips.
Tidus seemed to sense that he was being watched because he stopped and looked around. Yuna took a deep breath and opened the door. "Yuna?" Tidus asked confused. "What are you doing here?"
Yuna felt her face turning red. "Tidus… My mom's dead. Actually she's not my mom but that's not the point. I don't want to be near my Dad and-"
Tidus cut her off by walking over to her and wrapping his arms around her. "Yuna I thought that you were mad at me." He whispered in her ear. "I don't know what to tell you."
Yuna closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder. "I just need someone. And why would I be mad at you?"
Tidus smirked to himself. "Ever since the night in the car you've seemed distant. I'm not the only one that's noticed. Rikku and Lulu told me that they couldn't even talk to you."
Yuna pulled away. "What? They didn't even try to really talk with me. This week has been the worse of my life."
Tidus kept a grip on her shoulder. "They probably don't want to upset you Yuna. And they don't know what to say to you."
Yuna sighed. "How about, "I'm sorry?"
Tidus smiled. "Haven't you heard that a lot about Kaila?"
Yuna nodded and then looked at him in the eye. "Kaila's not my mother. I don't want to go in details right now but I thought that you should know. Can I stay here tonight?"
Tidus started to nod and then he paused. "I want you to Yuna but there's only one thing…"
"WHERE ARE YOU TIDUS?"
Tidus froze and turned to Yuna. "Look I'll use my dad's credit card and we'll stay at a hotel ok? I want to get away from him anyway."
Yuna looked confused. "What's wrong with him?"
"He's drunk." Tidus answered bitterly. "We have to get out without him seeing us."
"Why, what will he do if he sees us?" Yuna asked as she trembled.
Tidus paused and looked at her. "He might hurt you. Look we're gonna sneak downstairs but if he sees us I want you to run outside and wait for me alright?" He chuckled. "Don't look so worried Yuna, It's not like he'll kill us."
Yuna didn't look so sure as she followed Tidus quietly down the stairs.
"What do ya think that you're going?" Jecht slurred and Tidus turned around surprised.
"Run." Tidus whispered and Yuna hesitated. "I'll meet you, just get out!" Yuna nodded and quickly ran out the door and Jecht turned to Tidus.
"You worthless brat! What do you think you're doing?" With speed that Tidus didn't think would be possible for someone that was drunk Jecht grabbed Tidus and threw him across the floor. "And who was just in the house? Have you been sleeping with woman?" Jecht chuckled. "Oh I forgot, who would want to be with a wuss like you?"
Tidus stood up and walked towards the door.
"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?" Jecht yelled and Tidus winced before turning around calmly.
"I'm going out to get you some more beer. I'll be back soon." With that Tidus opened the door and walked out to see Yuna nerviously pacing around.
"Oh!" Yuna gave a little shout and ran over to hug him. "I'm glad that you're alright, I wasn't sure if I should go back inside."
Tidus just shook his head and pulled her to the car. "C'mon we've got to get out of here before Jecht comes after me or something." He started the car and they drove off in silence for a few moments before Yuna broke the silence.
"Is he usually like that?" She asked quietly.
"No, only 90 of the time." Tidus answered with a laugh. But when he saw that she wasn't kidding he sighed. "I'm used to it. He just chooses to run away from his problems instead of facing them. It's been like this ever since Mom was killed." Tidus stopped as if he had said too much.
"I didn't know that your mother died." Yuna said softly.
"I never told you. And she didn't die, she was killed." Tidus answered with a sigh.
"How did she die?" Yuna asked quietly.
"You probably don't want to talk about Kaila right now do you?" Tidus asked turning to her. Since Yuna didn't answer he took her silence as a yes. "Well, I don't want to talk about my mom right now either."
Yuna didn't say anything else and as they arrived at the hotel Tidus turned to her. "Look, I don't want to make you upset. I'm just not ready to talk about it right now." He walked around and opened Yuna's door. "We'll stay here tonight. Do you mind staying in the same room?"
Yuna just shook her head. The room was small and Yuna felt her face flushing when she realized that there was only one bed. "I hope that you don't mind. There weren't any other rooms open." Tidus told her and Yuna just smirked.
"I don't care. I just want to get away from home for awhile." As she walked over to the bed and sat down Yuna suddenly realized how tired she was. It had been a long, tiring and horrible day and she was just relieved that it was coming to an end.
"Yuna…" Tidus whispered at he watched her close her eyes. He wanted her to know how he felt… She was going through so much pain and he just wanted to help her.
"Mmmm… the bed feels good." Yuna muttered as she pushed herself up. She instantly blushed as Tidus pulled his shirt off and sat down next to her. Yuna managed to keep her eyes off his chest and on his face as she whispered, "Thanks Tidus… I couldn't have stayed at home tonight.
Tidus slowly wrapped his arms around Yuna's waist and for some reason she shivered as he looked her in the eyes. His eyes are so warm… they're so unlike Seymour's…his are so cold.
"T-Tidus what are you doing?" Yuna asked as he leaned down closer. "I don't understand… I thought that you had given up on me…""I tried but I can't give up on you… You're just to special." Tidus smirked at her and Yuna felt herself disappointed as he pulled away. "We should probably go to sleep now eh?" He asked and leaned over to turn off the light.
"Wait." Yuna felt herself say and Tidus stopped what he was doing and turned around. Yuna felt her eyes run over him. He was everything that she wanted. She needed him right now, especially since she didn't have anything else.
"Yuna… what do you want?" Tidus asked seriously.
"What do you think?" Yuna said softly as she leaned over and brushed her lips against his softly, she didn't know how he would respond.
Tidus pulled back and looked into her eyes as if he was searching. Then he took Yuna into his arms and kissed her.
Yuna closed her eyes. She hadn't felt this way when she kissed Seymour. Tidus didn't kiss her like he wanted her. He was kissing her without asking for anything.
Yuna pulled away gently and looked up at him. "Tidus I-"
"You don't need to say anything." Tidus answered. He had found what he wanted.
