YUNA'S POV
"Yunie! Someone's here to see you. Hehehe." I heard Rikku's voice calling me from somewhere in the hallway.
"Who is it?" I asked curiously.
"Just come out and see them for yourself Yunie. Don't sit there and ask questions!"
I opened the door of my room and walked out to greet whoever was there to see me.
Quietly standing in the hall was Tidus. What is he doing here right now; didn't I just see him a few hours ago? What does he want?
I gave him a little wave and he flashed me a smile that could melt my entire soul. I looked at him to find that he was still wearing his black jeans and a white T-shirt from this morning.
"Hey. How ya doin' Yuna? Um…I'd kinda need to talk to you…if that's alright." Tidus started.
"Um…Yeah, sure. I mean you've helped me a lot already. How about we take a walk down the beach or something." I proposed.
"Yeah…That would be soooo cool! Yunie and Tidus on the beach when the sun is setting in the sky…awww."
I gave Rikku a quick 'don't-get-any-ideas' look and looked back at Tidus. "Um…don't worry about my cousin Rikku…she gets so many weird ideas."
Tidus opened the door and before walking out he looked at Rikku and laughed.
"Hey, don't laugh at me you big meanie!" Rikku shouted out from behind.
"I'm gonna go now. Ok? I think I'll be back for dinner, so don't start eating without me." I told Rikku before walking out the door after Tidus.
"Okie dokie Yunie."
"So Tidus, what did you wanna talk to me about?" I questioned as we walked across the sandy beach.
Tidus sighed and started explaining. "It's about my old man. I just can't stand him anymore. Everything he does just seem to fucken piss me off and vice versa. I just got expelled from my old school and my old man refuses to pay for the school fees or anything, cos' he says that I'll just get kicked out again. I've been working my ass off trying to get enough money so I could go back to school and I've finally got enough. I'm starting at Zanarkand High tomorrow."
"Really? I go to school there and so does Lulu. Rikku's starting tomorrow too because she said she was staying for the year. With the thing about your dad, I don't really know what to do. But maybe you could get a job at the restaurant that I work at with Lulu…the pay is not bad ya know, but that's all that I can offer right now. I'm sorry.
"Hey, that's alright. Sorry to bother you. About the job thing…I think if Lulu says yes then I'm gonna take the job. I really need the cash…" Tidus said.
"I'll ask Lulu tonight when I get home…meanwhile do you wanna keep walking down the beach for a bit more. Let out your anger a little?"
Tidus shrugged and we walked for a few minutes when Tidus suddenly stopped and turned to fix his crystalline eyes on me, the rosy color of the sun set shining onto his blonde hair. "I gotta admit something to you Yuna…"
"What is it?"
"I know it's kinda corny to say this but I've only just met you but the thing is that I feel that I can trust you totally. Ya know? That's why I came to talk to you today."
I looked up and our eyes met. For a few seconds there we stood there staring at each other. I looked into his crystal blue eyes and he looked into my bi-colored eyes, one blue and the other green. In those few seconds, I felt as though we were connected somehow. He looked so gorgeous in the sun light His smooth tanned skin seemed to glitter, his blonde hair blowing softly as the wind breezed…I wonder what it's like to run my fingers through his hair…Crap! Why do I keep thinking like this?
I snapped out of the trance feeling myself blush and said "Maybe we should start heading home; I told Rikku that I'd be home for dinner. You're welcome to have dinner with us if you'd like."
"That's alright. I need to get home, but maybe next time. Thanks for asking though."
"Alright then." I replied feeling a bit disappointed.
TIDUS'S POV
Yuna and I walked back to her black sports car without saying a word, both of us in deep thought.
My mind was replaying the moment before when I looked into her eyes…her eyes…they were beautiful…one was forest green and the other was sapphire blue. When I looked into them, it was like I could see right within her. I could tell she felt the same way towards me, searching deep within. She is so beautiful…the way her hair blew lightly in the wind, the way she smiled, her scent… It seemed that she is made in everyway to delight me. What is it that I'm feeling towards her? I don't even know myself...
Yuna parked in front of her apartment and stepped out. I did the same and walked to my car. Before I got into the car, Yuna ran up to me, "Thanks for coming, I'm glad you feel that you can trust me…If you ever need to talk again I'll be here…" she flashed me a quick smile and reached up and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek then looked away blushing furiously.
I smiled and said "And if you need anyone to talk to I'll be here for you too…" I replied.
Yuna gave a nod and turned around and jogged back to the front door of the apartment. She gave my a wave before she disappeared into the house.
I got into my beaten down car and drove off.
I seriously don't wanna go home and face that shit bastard! Maybe I'll go to the local bliztball training stadium and have a few shots…
I arrived at the stadium in less than fifteen minutes and stepped out of my car.
I really love playing bliztball with friends and stuff, but I hate it as a career. There's too much traveling and life wouldn't be that peaceful with people pointing at you when you're strolling down the streets. It's just not me. I just wish my old man would understand my wishes…I'm not like him. We are the total opposite, he loves the attention while I don't.
I walked over to the boot of my car and took out my bliztball outfit from last year when my old man made me join his old team, the Zanarkand Abes. Even though I was the star player of the whole team and helped win pretty much all of our opponents, I ended up quitting at the end of last year.
In the change room I found Wakka, a close friend of mine who was also kicked out of my old school and is starting Zanarkand High with me tomorrow.
"Tidus man! How've you been doing, ya?" Wakka greeted.
"It's been the same as usual. How bout you man?"
"I've been great! Went down the beach a few days ago to try and pick up a few chicks and also work out these babies at the same time." Wakka said pointing at his biceps.
"So…you've been doing push-ups in front of girls to get their attention? Did you end up getting any of their numbers or did you get zilch?" I asked him.
"Course I did! I got most of their numbers except for this hot chick…she had the hottest chest out of all of them! She just stared at me with a look of disgust and walked off when her friends gave me their numbers. She was wearing a simple black bikini…and those jugs of her…" Wakka said dreamily.
"Wakka! Snap out it! Geez… is that all you think of all day?"
"Sigh…But they were really nice, ya? If only I could-"
"Shut up Wakka! Too much information! Let's go play a game with the other guys or something." I suggested to get Wakka back to his right mind.
"Alright then, ya?"
Wakka and I and a few others walked out to the bliztball sphere. I quickly dived into the sphere and feeling the coldness of the water wash over me, freeing me from all the anger bottled up inside from the fight with my old man today.
I did a few shots to warm myself up then the game started.
At the end of the game, my team won and everyone started getting out of the sphere pool and filling out of the entrance. Soon, I was the only one left in the sphere. I did a few flips then began to swim around. It was getting late so I swam up to the surface and climbed out of the sphere.
I went back to the change room to get my stuff and was about to leave when I heard voices somewhere outside the change room in the hallway or close by.
"God! You didn't get the stone did you!" a girl's voice yelled. The voice seemed familiar but something about the tone was different.
"Sorry, but as soon as I cut her across the back and began searching her I heard footsteps heading towards us so I had to escape." a deep man's voice tried to explain.
"Fine! I'll let you off this time. But if you fail me…there are consequences. Anyway, are you sure this is a safe place to be talking freely like this?" came the girl's voice again.
"This is the safest place I could find…bear with me please. The stadium is usually empty at this time and I promise there will be a much more safer place next time so we can discuss."
"Look at the time…I should get going now…"
"Yes alright." The man's voice agreed.
I heard footsteps heading away. Those two people were talking about Yuna. What are they planning to do to her?
