Chapter 4

-A month later at Tidus' house-

Tidus silently woke up trying not to disturb the sleeping Yuna cradled in his arms. He brushed the hair out of her face. She stirred and slowly opened her eyes only to look straight into his ocean blue eyes that she loved to wake up to. She nuzzled a little closer trying to stay warm in the somewhat cold house.

The season was beginning to turn into winter and the first snow was now lying on the front lawn. It sparkled like a large amount of diamonds.

"Good morning sleepyhead." was his welcome.

"Have I been lying here for a long while you were awake?"

"No, I just woke up myself."

"We better get ready for today. Do you mind if I take a shower?"

"No. I'll make some breakfast and hot chocolate."

"Why hot chocolate?"

"It's snowing! Today we're going to a resort with our friends to take or mind off things that have happened. The robes are right behind the door. If you want just put your cloths in the chute so they can be washed while your shower. The water pressure won't be disturbed either."

"Thanks. I'll be right back." She said kissing him quickly and heading for the bathroom.

While Tidus prepared breakfast while Yuna took a shower. She thought to herself as the water beat down on her.

'I can't believe how much he loves me. I love him too but I have never told him that. I wonder why Jason didn't want me to give Tidus my blood for him to live. He knew that I would get weak. (giggle) In fact he has been there for me since all I can remember. Now that I think about it. The years I was 10-14 I don't remember any of it. Well I better hurry and get outside before my breakfast gets cold, and so I can tell the boy that I love him. '

She hurried up and finished her shower. Then she dried off, and putting a rode on she walked to breakfast. He had just finished making it as she came dancing out.

"You seem perky this morning. Sorry, but your clothes won't be done for another 30 minutes."

They ate breakfast in silence. When they were done he cleaned while she went into the living room to see the freshly laid snow with some hot chocolate. Noiselessly he crept behind and put his hands around her waist and pulled her into a hug.

"Hello." She simply said.

She turned her head to look into his eyes. With one hand she held her hot chocolate, and with the other pulled his face in. They stood there for awhile, caught up in the moment. Then she broke the kiss and sat down.

"Tidus…it is a little embarrassing, but I can't hold it in any longer."

"What? You can tell me anything you want."

"Well…I want to tell you that I love you." she blurted out.

"Really! I was planning on telling you today. I'm just relived that you feel the same way." Tidus exclaimed.

"It's felt like a weight has been lifted off us doesn't it?"

"It does."

Both blushing wildly they pulled each other close. Suddenly there was a knocking at the door. Acting quickly Yuna rolled onto the floor as Tidus answered the door. There was Jason messing with his hair to get it just the way he wanted.

"Oh! Hello. Did you forget we are leaving soon?" Jason stated in a matter-of-fact tone.

"No, I was just…"

"I interrupted something again didn't I?"

"No you didn't."

"Liar. Yuna get out from behind the couch."

She got off the floor trying to hide the redness in her cheeks.

"Hello Jason, how are you today?"

"I'm fine, but you need to tighten your robe." He answered motioning with his hands. "I'm really sorry for the interruption. This is the third time I have done this today. If someone wasn't so pushy…"

"Don't think I can't hear you." came a voice from his car.

After 30 minutes Tidus and Yuna were ready to go on their trip. Tidus rode with Jason in his silver Lamborghini, while all the girls went in Lulu's van. Kimahri, Wakka and Auron rode in a pick up truck. They met at Yuna's house before they took off.

"Hey Tidus, ya ready?" asked Wakka.

"Yes."

"Good. Let's go everybody!"

Tidus jumped into Jason's car. As soon as his door closed the car shot off hitting 100 mph with ease.

"Oh brother, you two will have a handful dealing with your show off boyfriends." whispered Rikku to Yuna and Krystal.

"Tell us about." They said in unison while getting into van.

Driving off, they looked back on their home to see what it looks like before they leave it for a couple weeks. They stopped occasionally get some coffee or whatever they wanted to drink, and filled up on gas. Lulu accidentally blew up one off the stations. They were glad that their vehicles were still intact and without a scratch.

"Seriously Lulu, why of all the people in the world you end up to be a pyromaniac!" exclaimed Tidus.

"Because it's hot." She simply replied.

(Everyone falls over)

They finally got there after 5 hours of traveling. They pared off: Tidus-Jason, Lulu-Wakka, Auron-Kimahri, and Rikku-Yuna-Krystal. They took the first night getting settled in. The very next morning the all rose at dawn. Every got dressed and went downstairs to have breakfast. Jason had waffles and toast. Tidus had the same while Yuna had blueberry muffins and apple juice. Everyone else had pancakes and hot chocolate.

"Hey Yuna? Why don't you go ice skating with Tidus?" Rikku asked curiously.

"Um…I really don't know how." her cousin answered truthfully.

"I'll teach you if you want." came Tidus' voice from behind her.

She agreed and left with him to the frozen lake after putting on her coat. Lulu stayed inside with Wakka and soaked in the hot tub. Rikku went skiing with Auron, and Jason and Krystal went snowmobiling. Kimahri just went up into the mountains to do whatever he felt like. It was probably to keep a bird-eyes view on Yuna and Tidus.

Tidus raced her to the hut where they were to get their ice skates.

"How do you skate?" she asked.

"Well…" after 30 minutes she finally was able to skate without falling down, but every once in a while she fall only to be caught.

Meanwhile with Rikku and Auron-

Auron tried to find Rikku after she disappeared. He finally found her with a video camera.

"What…"

"Quiet Auron!"

He looked where she was pointing the camera. It was pointed at Wakka and Lulu in the hot tub kissing. After realizing what she was doing he grabbed the back of her coat and dragged her away with her arms and legs failing about.

-Meanwhile with the Other Couple-

Snow flew up behind Jason as he raced across the landscape. He looked behind him to see where his friend was. He stopped to see if she was behind him, but she wasn't. Soon Krystal came into view and screeched to a stop, spraying snow everywhere.

"Why have you stopped?" She asked when the snowmobile came to a stop.

"I hear something." He turned his head from side to side trying to hear where it was coming from. "Krystal come here!"

"Why?"

"Please just do it." Jason commanded again.

All of a sudden a high pitched screamed filled the canyon. He quickly grabbed her arm and tossed her onto his vehicle while hers was blown to shreds. He gunned the engine picking up speed with every inch and she held on with all her strength. Explosions began erupting near the side of the snowmobile causing it to lose its balance every now and then. However Jason was only able to dodge them for so long. The explosions ceased and the roar of other engines could be heard. More snowmobiles flew out of the woods to his right and left of the two. Jason gunned the engine again and began to drive away as fast as he could. They chased him for about 5 minutes before an obstacle got in his way.

"Krystal?"

"Yes!" She yelled over the engine.

"Hold on to me tight, I have to try something that you will need to hold on." roared back.

"Why are they chasing us?"

"I'll tell you later."

Machine gun fire started as they entered a valley. There came a low rumbling from the ground. An avalanche had started. They continued chasing him for another 2 minutes before some of them were engulfed by the raging snow. Jason then noticed a canyon in his path. He quickly stopped and examined it and the environment from a distance. Then he jumped behind Krystal and put his hands on the handlebars and pushed the thrust.

"What are you doing?" she said nervously with a blush on her face.

"I'm trying the thing I told you about awhile ago."

"Okay."

Some bullets ricocheted near her head. He pushed the throttle to its limit. He rocketed off the edge of the canyon. The snowmobile began twirling in circles. Jason placed one arm around her waist; jumping off it he propelled the snowmobile into the enemies following him. The objects collided with extreme force. Both blew apart sending debris everywhere. Jason's judgment had been right, however when he passed the other side of the canyon he realized that is was practically a straight drop. As they descended he held on to her tightly.

"Don't worry everything is going to be alright." he whispered into her ear.

"How do you know?"

"Just trust me this one last time."

The ground began to climb towards them. She closed her eyes and held on to him like it would be the last time. As the forest below came to meet them, he stretched out his left arm and took hold of branch trying to slow them down. His attempt did work, but then the branch snapped and they fell. Using his body as a shield Jason protected Krystal as they broke through branch after branch. Finally they hit the ground sending a low rumbling sound throughout the immediate area.

"Am I dead?" she asked.

"Not from what I can tell." Jason replied. "I can feel your heart beating so you should be fine."

It was then the girl noticed the close proximity of herself to him. Quickly she turned her head to hide another crimson blush.

"Are you okay? You seemed to take a lot of damage." she whispered in her embarrassment.

"For your first answer, I would be better if you could release me from your 'death grip'."

Again she noticed that her arms were squeezing the life out of Jason's chest. He didn't know how it was possible for her to do that, but that's the random strength of women for you.

"Oh! Sorry about that!" she exclaimed releasing him.

"I am fine."

"Do you have enough strength left in you to do one last thing before lunch?" she asked gaining her composure.

"Like what?"

"Go skating with Tidus and Yuna?"

"That would be fine."
