A/N: Thanks for the reviews. Though, I did get many hits but only three reviews :( Well, here it is, Chapter Two!
WHAT ABOUT LOVE?
Chapter Two
Seymour and Tidus inched towards each other from opposite ends of the classroom, but were suddenly interrupted by the English teacher's heels clicking against the newly waxed floor. They shot each other intense glares as they made their way back to their seats.
Just then, their teacher, Shelinda walked in and class started. Ignoring Shelinda, Yuna turned to Tidus, who was sitting next to her and hissed at him in angry/worried tone, "Tidus, what were you thinking?"
"That I could've beaten the crap out of that asshole?" Tidus replied.
"Tidus, you realize you would've gotten kicked off the blitz team. Plus, you would've been suspended, maybe even expelled. Plus, you might've even lost your chances of getting a scholarship?" Yuna gave Tidus a 'you-know-I'm-right' look.
"Fine, I guess you're right. But, it would've been fun kicking that loser's-"
Tidus was interrupted by Shelinda, "Sorry to be interrupting your conversation here but, this is a class. Now, Tidus, why don't you answer my question? Oh yes and I also expect a 1000 word essay on how talking during class disrupts others' learning."
Tidus groaned and rolled his eyes.
Just then the bell rang signaling the end of first period class. The three friends went their separate ways agreeing to meet at their usual spot for lunch.
It was now the end of the day, and the group of six friends were all hanging out at the beach. They were amusing themselves with a game of volleyball, which the girls were winning.
After the game Yuna and Rikku went out for a swim, shaking away the stress of the day in fun no-point conversation with topics ranging from the hottest fashions to the cutest boys around.
Tidus' POV
It was almost sunset when we huddled together around the fire, having a very hearty conversation. It was slightly chilly, since the wind had picked up. Then they all asked me to tell them a story, because, according to them I was the best story-teller they knew. Strange. So I began.
Halfway through the story I paused and looked at Yuna. I guess I always did that when I told stories. I don't know why. I guess she was just such an inspiration to me; she always stuck by me; she always encouraged me. I remember when I was eight yrs old and I had just learned my mother had passed away and Jecht was being such a bastard to me, always yelling at me, always expecting me to be something I really wasn't, Yuna had always been there for me; I really trusted her then and I always will.
I looked at her now. She was wearing a modest, one-piece bathing suit. Damn, she looked hot. Oh crap! She's my friend, not a slut. She probably doesn't even like me. I can't be attracted to her!
I guess somehow, although I didn't want to admit it even to myself I was attracted to her. She had a certain something about her that made me fall in love with her instantly. She was drop-dead gorgeous. She was a natural beauty, not someone to overdo on the makeup.
Yuna's POV
I looked over at Tidus who had now paused for a long time and was probably day-dreaming. I wonder what he's thinking? He is just so hot. We were friends since so long ago. But lately, I was feeling attracted to him. I wanted to tell him how I felt, but I didn't know how he would react and I surely didn't want to ruin such a strong friendship.
I've always trusted Tidus and he's always trusted me. We have such a strong friendship, which I would never want to lose. By telling him I liked him more than a friend, I would surely be losing his friendship, our friendship. By telling him, I would be in a lose-lose situation. If I told him the truth, I would lose him and I would never be able to forgive myself. I guess it isn't always good to tell the truth, especially not in a situation like this.
I stared at Tidus as he finally continued his story.This is how it always had been as far back as I could remember, hanging out at the beach with our friends, then listening to Tidus' stories, losing all the stress and forgetting all my worries.
Normal POV
As the six friends looked at the horizon, where the sun was setting while listening to the conclusion of Tidus' story, little did they know that things would never quite be the same again.
Three weeks had gone by since the start of school and surprisingly Dona and Seymour hadn't caused any problems, but that always meant they were probably planning something evil.
It was the night of Bickson's party; the party to which all the popular seniors and a few college students were invited to. The party which everybody had been talking about.
Yuna, Rikku, and Tidus climbed inside Rikku's car as they drove out to Bickson's house. Rikku started the car and started driving. Following the instructions she had received the day before, she made a few turns and ended up on dark street.
"Wow! It's so dark here." Rikku exclaimed.
"Are you sure you have the right place? Maybe you should call Bickson and figure out the right way. I mean it's really dark here." Yuna replied, looking around slightly scared.
"No wait, I think this is it. Look, there it is!" Rikku pointed to the brightly lit up house in front of them as she found a place to park. They all climbed out of the car and met Wakka Lulu, and Gippal. They smiled at each other, as they walked inside and began dancing to the upbeat music that was playing.
"Hey Yuna!" Tidus screamed into Yuna's ear, "want to go get some punch?"
"Sure!" Yuna said.
"What? I can't hear you, it's too loud!"
Yuna dragged Tidus to the refreshment table as a rap song filled the room. Tidus filled Yuna's glass with punch that was mixed with alcohol, and poured some punch into his own glass, as well.
Yuna sipped her drink. "Interesting," she said. She gulped down the rest of her drink as Tidus did the same. She filled her glass with some more punch.
"Drinking contest?" she asked, looking at Tidus.
"Sure!" came the answer.
They began the almost endless drinking contest. By then end of it, both were too drunk to know or care about who had won. Yuna pulled Tidus along with her as she asked him to go home. Tidus told her he'd drop her off to her house. They walked along the road together, in what seemed to them like a straight line.
They reached Yuna's home as she unlocked the door and walked in with Tidus. They made pointless small talked and laughed, crashing on the floor together. The last thing Yuna could remember was Tidus picking her up as she led him up the stairs and to her bedroom.
The sun shone in the clear blue sky as sunlight streamed in through the window, filling up Yuna's room. Yuna yawned and sat up. Suddenly realizing she was naked she wrapped her sheet around her and got off the bed. She looked at her clothes thrown around the room. She frowned, knowing she would never throw her clothes that way. Oh Well. She thought, almost tripping over Tidus, who was sprawled on the floor in front of her bed. She winced as she realized what had happened the night before. They had had a drinking contest with the punch; the same punch that had been mixed with alcohol; the same punch with which she had been too drunk to think. She could vaguely remember Tidus picking her up, carrying her up to her room. But that was all she remembered. Something had happened last night. Her eyes widened, as she finally figured it out.
No. she thought. No, it can't be. However no matter how much she could deny it she knew she really had slept with Tidus the night before.
A/N: Well hoped you liked the chapter. Things finally sped up. From now until a while its mostly uphill with a few difficult times from Seymour and Dona. Oh and they ARE planning something. Something BAD. Well, please review I'd really appreciate it!
