I hate when people gossip about others but you know what they say:
"Love your enemies, they will hate it."
Yuna P.O.V.
I hated my first period. The teacher was smelly and the kids weren't too pleasant either.
People were talking bad about me in a slightly loud enough voice so that I could hear it.
"I hear she worships trees and crap like that. Who does that? She's a total freak. I mean, what kind of person has two different colored eyes? She belongs to a freak show or something!"
Everyone around her chuckled and the insulting voice belonged to none other than Dona.
"Now please. If Miss Yuna belongs to a freak show, you do not have to ket everyone know about it."
The entire class couldn't help but burst out in jeering laughter leading to more torture than Yuna planned.
Rikku then said "Yuna, don't listen to them. They are all bitches that need to get a life."
Rikku was a real friend.
Tidus P.O.V.
This morning I started off the same as any other day but today was a slightly different day than the rest. Today I would have my test to determine whether I could be a full pledged firefighter. Yup! I am a fireman in training.
I know it sounds weird but I enjoy helping people in distress.
Basically, I started training when my mother was caught in a fire and was burned to death...
I don't like people having pity for me so I decided to make something out of myself.
My old man went into depression and I was left to take care of myself. I swore that I would help people who were in need to repay the death of my mother.
It sounds cheesy, I know, but it's true.
Every day I am greeted with the same routine.
"Get up you lazy good for nothing kid! You got school...and I don't want you to go to that test or whatever the hell it is you wanna do! Why can't you get a real job!"
I ignored him. I never was a fan of my old man's let downs. He was the only thing in my way of being content with myself. He's the doubt and negativity in my mind. After living with him all these years...those simple words he had said stuck in my head and would stop me from what I wanted to do.
"If your mother saw you she'd be so disappointed."
That's when my true hate for him started to grow inside.
I denied what he said but on occasion I would have my doubts. My depression would kick in and I would hate the world.
Enough with my drama, I go to high school and I'm a senior. One more year and my old mans outta my life for good.
I woke up extra early in the morning to visit the local firestation. My pride and joy there was 'stripes'. He was the dalmation there. He was my determination. My family you could say. I walked him every morning just so the both of us could get our fresh air.
Just as I was about finished my walk, I noticed two dumbstruck girls drooling over something in my direction. It was then that I realized the object of their attention was me, so I flashed them a quick smile so they could get the hell away from me. They were really freaking me out after the first five minutes
Once they left, I couldn't help but chuckle. They were both really hot and that flattered me. I mean, I get a lot of compliments for my extremely good looks but this one was the new generation of flattering which was very bizarre.
One had blonde hair. She was really cute. But the girl who really caught my eye was the brunette. She was something outta this world. Too bad she's a freak. (lol)
When I got to school, I saw Wakka. He's been my best friend since pre-k. No one is closer to me than he is. NOT IN THAT WAY! (perverts...lol)
"Hey wat up brudda! You gonna pass that test right?"
"Hell Yeah! You know it." They both laughed.
"Hey there's Gippal and Baralai. Hey dudes!"
"Someone's in a good mood today." Gippal said with a smirk.
"nah... just ready to take that test...you know it's a really big step which will determine where my whole life is gonna lead to. I'm serious about this."
"Woah! Sounds like you took a trip to a soap opera premier."
"Please...I'd rather be hung over a herd of dumbstruck woman than hear your wannabe humor jokes. They suck man and that's from the bottom of my heart."
Baralai then was staring at the sky thinking about a certain crimson eyed gal.
"Who you thinking about 'Lai? It wouldn't be...hmm...just a guess...Paine?"
"Am I that easy to read? Woah...that date was just so...different you know?"
"Pick me up at seven 'kay?" Paine asked Baralai.
"Yeah. Sure." He was a little too occupied with some disturbing thoughts.
"And don't even think about it."
"Huh?"
A couple of hours later, Baralai picked up Paine and they set of to a small restaurant. As they sat down, the waiter came to take their orders.
"I will have the steak. Medium rare please." Paine asked.
"Sounds good. I'll have the same."
"What are you talking about? STEAK IS MINE! You cannot have it! Back! Back away!" Paine seemed very 'abnormal.'
"Paine, are you okay?"
"oops...sorry about that. I'm possessive with steak... hehe." Paine was now turning a very bright red with complete embarrassment.
"That's okay, I'm possessive with yogurt." He couldn't help but have himself a mental chuckle at the thought.
Now they were both staring confusingly at each other which not long after was followed by bursting in laughter.
As they walked home from an awkward engagement, Baralai couldn't help but hold onto her hand. Paine blushed at the gesture.
"You know I'm not normally like this but you do something to me."
Baralai gave Paine a teasing quick peck on the cheek.
"Old Paine is back." Just there she got her sword out and held it against his throat.
"Bye 'Lai! See ya at school!" She gave him a smile as he walked off in a fearful rush. (lol)
"Yeah...VERY different... I don't ever remember my date being possessive with steak." Gippal teased.
"Or threatening me with a sword." Tidus interjected.
"Well Paine is not your average date, ya?" Wakka implied.
"YUP!" They all said in unison.
"Oh my god! Did you hear the bell ring?" Tidus realized they were standing there for some time
"Yeah. Like an hour ago." Gippal said.
"WHAT?" They all ran to class but the bell rang leaving them no choice but to go to the next class.
I was sorta in a rush when a strange girl knocked me down.
"Hey! Watch where you're going!"
Yuna P.O.V.
Just then what seemed like decades, the bell rang and I ran out just glad to be out of that whorehouse full of the 'in' crowd.
All of a sudden, I crashed hard into a guy which knocked me down hard.
"God! Slow down pig!"
