Monday February 7th

First day of the second semester. 8:25am

At the first half of the first semester of school, Tidus would always wonder alone down the halls since he never had anyone to talk to so he had time to find his second semester classes so that he wouldn't be late.

His classes were Religion, English, History and Gym.

He entered his first class on time and sat next to Shuyin who was in the class as well. More students came in and Tidus noticed that Wakka, Bickson and Graav were also part of the class. Bickson and Graav sat behind Tidus and Shuyin to 'keep an eye on him' and Wakka sat in front with another blitz player.

The door closed and the teacher walked to the front of the class. "Good morning class I am Professor Kinoc and I will be the religion teacher for all you kids." He began. Tidus already liked him. He seemed like a nice fellow. "I will be teaching the wonders of Yevon and Bevelle to all you slackers. Also all the traditions that follow Spira. I any of you have a problem with my class and disobey me I don't have any problems sending you to the vice principal." Okay so Tidus was wrong. This guy was creepy, but which teacher at this school wasn't?

As the teacher kept going on about rules and work, Tidus fell into a daydream, thinking about how Yuna was doing…

"QUIET DOWN CLASS!!!" A creepy old lady yelled at her class. "Don't make me say it again!!! This is your health class and we will be talking about sex."

Yuna sank into her chair.

"Sex is wrong!!! None of you little weak kids shouldn't even be thinking about it!! And for all you girls, man will try and pressure you into it cuz they're sex loving thugs! None of you should feel pressured into something this serious!! And you should never laugh at this topic cuz its very SERIOUS!"

Yuna tried to cover her face from the old lady since she kept staring at her making her feel like she could read her mind. 'Geez why did I have to get stuck in this class?' Yuna thought.

Seymour was also in the class but was a few seats away from her. He would always look over at her and smile. But not in an evil way. A pleasant smile that freaked Yuna out whenever she looked over at him.

"Sex is the beginning of a nightmare!! And I'm not just saying this to scare you. Girls would have to go through morning sickness, back and neck pains, mood swings which piss everyone off and numerous other things your little brains can imagine!!" She continued on.

Yuna sank even lower in her chair. 'The only nightmare is sitting in this class in my condition with everyone staring at me.'


"………………And so…the Summoners were sent to the front lines as Zanarkand and Bevelle fought against one another making it the Great Machina War that occurred over 1000 years ago…" Tidus' religion teacher continued on boring the entire class. As if they never heard of the Great Machina War before.

But just as Kinoc continued, the bell rang. Saved by the bell is more like it. Tidus got up and left the classroom. Tidus' next classes seemed okay and he made some new friends. Others were actually noticing Tidus and it made him feel great. As the time rolled by, Tidus was out of his third period and now it was lunch. As he walked down the hall to the cafeteria, he wondered who else had the same lunch as him.


Yuna gathered up her books and left her classroom and walked down the hall, going to her locker when Seymour saw Yuna and ran up to her.

"Hey Yuna." Seymour began.

"Hi Seymour." Yuna replied.

"So how have you been doing?"

"Pretty good. Things seem to be working out." Yuna replied.

"Working out, you mean with Tidus?" Seymour asked.

"…Tidus and I…well, it's hard but we seem to be getting along." Yuna then walked up to her locker and opened it while Seymour stood there thinking about how he was going to crush Tidus. Yuna then looked over at him. "Something wrong?"

Seymour then turned his head and looked at her. "No, no. I'm fine…and I'm glad that you two are working everything out." He lied. Seymour then smiled.

Yuna returned the smile. "Thanks although it seems kind of odd hearing that from someone who likes to pick on him."

"The fruitcake and I have a special bond." Seymour told her.

"Oh? And what is that suppose to mean?" Yuna asked.

"Well you know, I've always been picking on him since the 10th grade. Its just something the two of us engage in." He replied.

Yuna giggled. "Okay then, just don't be too rough on him."

"Nah, I just do a few pranks, nothing serious." Seymour said smirking. Luckily Yuna never saw him.

"So Seymour why are you being so nice to me all of a sudden?" Yuna asked.

Seymour placed his hand on his chest. "Yuna, I am hurt, hearing those words from you. I've always been nice to you. We've been friends for who knows how long."

Yuna laughed at how Seymour was teasing him.

But just then Tidus turned a corner and saw the two laughing and talking. He immediately got a feeling of jealousy seeing Seymour with Yuna but didn't let it bother him that much.

"So Yuna I was wondering if, you know, if you're not busy on the weekend if you wanted to go out with me?" He asked scratching the back of his head hoping for her to say yes.

Yuna chuckled. "You're asking me out Seymour?"

"Yeah well, I kinda figured since we don't really hang out as much anymore that we could catch up, maybe dinner and a movie?" Seymour replied.

"Okay then. Pick me up at 6 this Friday."

"Great."

Tidus then walked up to the two. "Hey Yuna."

Yuna looked over at Tidus and smiled peacefully at him. "Oh hey Tidus."

"Say if your not busy with Seymour here, you wanna walk around and see the others?"

"Yeah sure." Yuna replied. She then looked over at Seymour. "I'll talk to you later then."

"Of course. Later." Seymour replied as the two walked off. His soft pleasant expression then turned wicked as he glared at Tidus. "Everything is going as planned." He then walked off.

"Wow Tidus. I'm surprised that you actually came up to Seymour like that." Yuna began as she and Tidus walked down the hall.

"I'm not afraid of him anymore." Tidus replied. "I only have to deal with him for one more semester then I won't have to see him again. And its not like I see him everyday too."

Yuna chuckled. "Well you've certainly grown up."

"Well soon were going to be parents Yuna. We don't have time to goof off anymore." Tidus replied.

"You're right."

Soon to become parents, the words flooding her mind over and over again. Yuna knew right away that she wasn't prepared to handle a baby. It scared her, or at least when she would think about it. But knowing that Tidus was going to be right beside her and knowing that he was going to be there no matter what, comforted her thoughts on the rough future ahead of her.

Yuna then stopped walking. She remained still, standing there in the middle of the hall staring down at the floor. Tidus turned around a few seconds later and looked at her oddly.

"Yuna? What's wrong?" Asked Tidus, walking over to Yuna and stood in front of her. No reply, she was silent, deep in thought. "Yuna?" Tidus asked for a second time.

Yuna then looked up to see Tidus staring at her worriedly.

"You okay?" Tidus asked her.

Yuna shook her head. Clearly something was on her mind, but what? "Tidus…" She began softly, feeling uneasy and scared. "I want to go."

Tidus gave her a confused weird look. "Go? Go where?"

Yuna took her hand in his, staring back down at the ground. "Away from here. Please? I…don't want to be here anymore."

Tidus was as confused as ever. Yuna wanted to leave school on the first day of the second semester? It was something he couldn't understand. But, to tell the truth, she looked scared, unsure about something. Tidus sighed, was she going to tell him what was on her mind?

Tidus then smiled and nodded his head. "Okay. Lets go."

Yuna looked up at him and nodded. "…Thank you…" She whispered softly to herself as she and Tidus then began making their way out of the school building.


"Uhh Seymour, are you sure you want to do this?" Bickson asked as the three boys hung round in the washroom.

"Of course I'm sure you idiot!! Tidus is gonna pay. And dearly." Seymour snapped.

"Yeah, but…what you're planning is suicide!" Graav told him.

"Look, are you two gonna help me or just stand there blabbing your mouths all day!?" Seymour yelled t the two.

Bickson sighed and shrugged his shoulders. "What do you want us to do?" He asked calmly.

"The Valentine's dance will be coming up next week. Its pretty obvious that Yuna is gonna go with the fruitcake. And when that does, I need you two to occupy the dear Yuna so I can be with Tidus alone. You MUST make sure that Yuna doesn't find us." Seymour began to explain.

"Sounds simple enough. And what will you be doing with Tidus?" Graav asked.

Seymour then pulled out a gun from his pocket and loaded it. "Well boys, lets just say that he's gonna get quite a bang at the end of this magical dance."

He then began laughing, Graav and Bickson soon joining in.


Tidus then began waking through the Besaid Park slowly with Yuna in silence. Yuna was holding his hand, which he felt, was a bit strange but he didn't complain.

"So Yuna…why did you want to leave school so suddenly?" Tidus began wanting to find out why she had been acting the way she was at school.

"I…wanted to talk to you…" She replied softly, feeling shy yet sad at the same time.

"Talk to me?" Tidus questioned.

Yuna then walked over to a bench and the two of them sat down beside one another. "Tidus…I can't…I don't know if I can go through all of this anymore…" She confessed.

"What do you mean?"

"I…well…" She began slowly, tears escaping her eyes. "The baby. I can't go through it anymore. I can't handle the pressure, I don't want it anymore!!"

Tidus stared at her, but Yuna, rather looking at him, stared down at the ground crying. "Yuna…you don't mean that do you?"

"I don't know…I really don't…I'm sorry…" Yuna told him, her crying continuing.

"Yuna…you're going to be fine. You're just scared, and that's okay. It's okay to feel the way you do. I know the pressure is overwhelming and the pain through the whole experience is unpleasant but…you can do this. You can't back down. The baby will be born in May; it's not that far away. You've come this far, don't give up now."

Yuna then looked over at him. Their eyes met with one another. "I just…I don't think I can…"

Tidus placed his hand on her cheek. "Yuna…I'm here too. I'll be helping you along the way, whenever you need me, I'll be there. I know you can do this."

Yuna then wrapped her arms around him and they hugged. "Tidus…what if I…don't make a good mother?"

Tidus held her close. "You'll do fine." They then pulled apart. "Besides, I think you rather worry about me screwing up as a parent then you Yuna. Fatherhood isn't exactly my strongest subject, you know."

Yuna laughed. "You'll do fine Tidus." She then stood up and smiled peacefully at him. "You'll make a great father."

Tidus then stood up as well and they continued on. Yuna linked her arm with him and rested her head on his shoulder. They continued in silence. But not an awkward silence. It was a peaceful relaxing silence between the two. A silence they both enjoyed.

Around 2 o'clock, Tidus and Yuna had just reached Yuna's house. They walked up to the door.

"Thank you for the afternoon Tidus. It really made me feel better."

"Anytime. You'll always have my number, kay?" Tidus replied smiling.

Yuna nodded her head.

"Good." Tidus replied happily.

"You know…" Yuna began. "I umm…still don't have a date for the valentine's dance and I would be…grateful if you would like to go…with me." Yuna asked him shyly, her cheeks blushing from embarrassment.

Tidus scratched the back of his head. "Yeah of course. I'd love to go with you."

Yuna giggled. "Okay then." She then gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "I guess I'll see you tomorrow at school."

"Okay. Later." Tidus replied waving.

Yuna then entered her house. "Bye." She then closed her door and Tidus began walking home. How mush luckier can he get? He's having a baby with the most beautiful and popular girls in school and now is taking her to a formal valentines dance. I'd say he is on his way to confessing his true feelings to her. Only time would tell.


And there you have it. So now that you know Seymour is up to something, what is he planning to do with his gun he has? Will it succeed or fail? I guess you'll have to keep reading to find out in the next chapter. Leave you're review and I will see you in the next chapter.
