Hey, everyone. At last I update, eh? LOL About time I say. I was unsure of whether or not to put in what I put it in this chpt and I am quite nervous about it to be honest with you. I don't like writing them because I suck. I don't know, maybe I don't. I just let my viewers decide on it I guess. Well, here's the chpt! Enjoy!

Several days had come and gone. . .

Recent events plastered the Spira News and the tabloids, which in deed trashed Yuna's name and her appearance as well as that of Lenne, Tidus and Shuyin. Tidus paid the tabloids to attention, however, it bothered Yuna. Lenne just merely shrugged it off as well as Shuyin. However, there was someone of greater power that as about to take care of the entire situation.

Braska stood in the news media office as he held several tabloid papers in his had. He began to read them off to the person who had came up with the stories, throwing them upon his desk.

"Super Stars Wears Kiddie PJs!" Braska said sternly as he tossed the first paper down. "Singing Sensations Find Love After Luca Inn Disaster." He then tossed that paper down. "And do I ever love this one." Braska then turned the paper for that guy to see personally. There, on the front page, was Tidus and Yuna hugging and above it were the words Simply Irresistible: City Cop And Singing Sensation Exposed and that's the one Braska slammed down upon the desk. "I will not have my daughter's name trashed in the public eyes in this manner!" The man's eyes widened "I want these torn down from the news stand and it will be done as of this very moment. Those girls are having a terrible time as it is and they don't need their good names trashed like this."

"It's just harmless fun." The guy said with a smirk, however, they smirk turned to a look of worriment as Braska gave him a deathly glare.

"You think this is funny, do you?" Braska asked. "Well, we'll see how funny you think it is come this afternoon when your job is terminated." And without another word spoken, Braska turned abruptly and left.

Moments later. . .

Yuna, Lenne, Tidus and Shuyin awaited Braska on the outskirts of town and when he finally arrived he gave Tidus and Shuyin specific instructions on what to do and where to go and with everything said and done, the girls were taken to a place no one would expect them to be at. Braska watched as his daughter got in the car and as she waved goodbye, they drove off into the night.

Braska sighed. "Be safe, my daughter." He then got in his car and drove away.

Three weeks had come and gone. . .

Far away from society in a secluded area, Yuna and Lenne were sent to stay with Rikku, Cid and Brother midst the desert in a secret place they called Home. Tidus and Shuyin also accompanied them to keep them protected from any harm what so ever. And throughout the days as Tidus and Yuna spent time together, they became very close and seemed to have formed a secret relationship. Lenne, on the other had, was playing hard to get. She knew that Shuyin liked her and she liked him, however, she wasn't giving in as quickly as Yuna had done.

Nightfall. . .

Cid had been called out about something that happened while someone was digging for Machina. He and Nhadala headed out in search for the person whom seemed to be missing, which left Rikku and Brother there alone, and while Pops is away, Rikku shall play. Shuyin was willing to look the other way and let them do as everyone pleased, however, being the stand up guy he was, Tidus was a whole other matter.

Rikku, Brother, and Shuyin sat on the couch trying to decide whether or not to throw a party. Tidus stood over by the window looking out at the town that surrounded them as he listened in on their conversation. Lenne was in the kitchen getting snacks where Yuna was sitting in the recliner off to the left of everyone.

"This party is NOT going to happen." Tidus warned as he turned and faced everyone. "Any under aged drinking and I will take you in."

Rikku crossed her arms over her chest as Yuna giggled at Tidus' sternness. She knew how he was because she'd been around him for a little while and found it amusing.

"Come on, Tidus." Shuyin said as he got up and walked over to him. "Loosen up and have some fun."

"I'll have fun once the girls are safe from this creep. So, till that time comes, everything else will have to wait." Tidus said before he pushed through Shuyin and headed for the guest room where he'd been staying for the last several days.

A few hours later. . .

The party was underway. Several were drinking and some had already passed out. A few were having drink outs under the table and so far, Rikku has out drank about two people with these being Beclem and Brother and she had yet to be defeated, that is until Gippal stepped up to the challenge. About 10 drinks in, Rikku was in the bathroom throwing her guts up where Gippal was the new champion. After Rikku got through throwing up, she went straight back and was just crazy enough to take Gippal on again.

Shuyin went straight for Lenne and was he ever making his moves on her. Being the flirt that he is, you can only imagine what sly moves he had been placing upon her.

Tidus, on the other hand, staying in his room where he sat on the edge of the bed wearing only a pair of night blue jeans and his socks. The room was terribly hot. I mean, they were in the middle of the desert. So, you can just about guess how hot it would be. Hot sweat ran down his chest in various places, tracing every curve and shape of his muscles. He sighed as he wiped the sweat from his brow and listened to the loud music just down the hall, which slightly annoyed him. He took out his gun and began to disassemble it for cleaning purposes.

Yuna just walked around and mingled with the crowd, but somehow felt out of place being there. She looked around in hopes that Tidus had decided to come out and join the party, but to her disappointment, he wasn't anywhere to be seen. Therefore, that could only mean he was in one place and that was his room, which she headed for. Upon reaching the closed door to his room, she stopped and pressed her ear to the door as if to listen for any kind of a sound, but she didn't hear anything. She then knocked very gently on the door and before Tidus could say "Come in.", she walked on inside where she was greeted by a pair of ocean blue eyes. Yuna flashed him a cute smile and he did the same.

"Can I come in?" Yuna asked a little cautiously.

"Sure." Tidus said. "Just close the door behind you. I don't wanna listen to whatever it is that your cousin is playing."

Yuna giggled as she walked on in and closed the door behind her. "Why don't you come out and join everyone?"

Tidus shook his head. "I'd rather not."

"Why not?" Yuna asked curiously.

"I have my reasons." Tidus said as he slipped the clip back into his gun and tucked it away in the back of his pants.

Yuna trailed her eyes upon his well toned body, burning the image in her mind. She hesitated a sigh as she watched the sweat glisten upon his body. She almost seemed hypnotized by the way he looked right now. She kept her eyes locked right on him as he stood, turned her way a bit and before she could take her eyes off him, he caught her staring at him. Yuna noticed that he had caught her and she quickly moved her eyes up and met with his, which had a rather seductive look within them.

"Why aren't you out there with everyone?" Tidus asked.

Yuna shrugged her shoulders. "Just felt out of place I guess."

"Why come search for me?" Tidus asked as he stepped from around the bedside and approached her.

"Curious to know what you were doing." Yuna said innocently.

"Is that it?" Tidus asked, continuing to dig for information.

"Well. . ." Yuna trailed off. "I just feel safe when your nearby."

"Shuyin's in there." Tidus said "You're safe with him as well as me."

"But he's not you." Yuna admitted, which seemed to flatter Tidus because that comment made him give a crooked smile in amusement.

"Is that right?" Tidus asked and Yuna nodded her head as her cheeks turned a slight shade of crimson.

A rather awkward silence fell between the two of them, however, a song that Tidus solely loved began to play and that cured the silence right away.

"About time that cousin of yours played something with a little taste." Tidus joked and Yuna giggled at the comment.

"She can play come pretty strange things at time, but she means well." Yuna said as she crossed her arms in front of her and swayed her hips a bit. "So. . . since you don't want to come out to the party. . ." she began bravely as she watched Tidus grab his muscle shirt off the bed and put it on. "You up for a dance?" Tidus eyed her curiously

"Been a while since I danced." Tidus warned her playfully. "I might step on your toes."

Yuna chuckled. "I don't care."

And with that said, Yuna moved in closely to him and wrapped her arms around her neck. She shuddered with excitement as she felt Tidus glide his hands around the small of her back and pull her to him. They listened to the sound of the music, allowing their bodies to sway in perfect harmony with it.

Things had began to calm down in the living room where the party was going the strongest. People were dancing with each other, the drink outs had ceased. Everyone was more less just mellowing out now.

Shuyin sat on the couch just inches from Lenne where he was still flirting with her bigtime. He let his fingers glide through her long mocha trestles as several strands of her hair fell near the front of her face, which Shuyin pushed back over her shoulder. With eyes of allurement, Lenne looked into Shuyin's eyes. She watched as he eyed her lips contently and as he moistened his own, he leaned in. Lenne more than smiled at the suggestion and without resisting, leaned in as well and with slightly opened mouths, their lips met as a chaste kiss was placed upon them.

Meanwhile. . .

Yuna had rested her head upon Tidus' shoulder who was caressing her back with a gentle massage, which was beginning to do more than just relax her. Tidus felt her exhale upon his neck, her breath hot against his flesh. He breathed seductivly a bit as he fully wrapped his arms around Yuna, pulling her into an embrace where seconds later she felt him trace his lips along side her neck, hitting a very vulnerable place, which only aroused her more as a few kisses we placed here and there.

Her scent and the softness of her skin was enough to turn Tidus on. He always found the young superstar attractive and just down right sexy. Never in a million years did he even dream that he'd get this close to her not alone hold her as he did now.

The gentleness of his touch and the security she felt was enough to make Yuna's heart melt with endearment. She knew of Tidus because of the stories she heard from fans along the tore, but never did she dream that she'd ever meet him face to face and be in his arms as she is at this very moment.

A soft moan escaped Yuna as Tidus continued to place kisses throughout the side of her neck. Soon realizing that he was about to get too carried away, Tidus prepared to stop.

"Don't stop." Yuna whispered into his ear seductively.

And that was all Tidus needed to hear and know. He trailed open mouthed kisses along the side of her neck to the top of her shoulder, which sent seductive shivers up and down her spine. He cupped her breasts within his hands, gently caressing them. Yuna closed her eyes and savored every kiss and every touch. She bit her bottom lip as she smiled at the stimulating sensations he was sending throughout her body.She shuddered as pure ecstasy surged through her veins.

Tidus looked deep into her eyes where he then pressed his lips to hers. After soon parting, their mouths opened and that kiss was deepened as their tongues intertwined in dance of love.

More and more the seduction and desire grew within them as their kisses became more heated with passion and allurement. Yuna's heart raced with excitement. Never had she felt this way before in her life. Nothing felt more right to Tidus than this did. He had been with many women before, but never had he known the feeling of true love until now.

Tidus slipped the straps of her satin dress down around her shoulders, pushing them down even farther, which in turn caused the dress to glide down her body and fall to the floor. He slowly glided her panties down and they fell to the floor as well. Being a little bashful to be fully exposed in front of him in such a manner, Yuna's cheeks turned a shade of crimson as she softly smiled at Tidus who was in fact admiring her.

"You're so beautiful." Tidus said, looking into her eyes as he caressed her blushing cheeks. "Both inside and out. And you have no idea how much I want you right now.

"Show me." Yuna said in a very seductive manner.

And with that, Tidus lowered her down onto the bed, placingtimid kisses upon her lips. Yuna scooted herself back farther onto the bed as he climbed on top of her. He trailed kisses from her lips, to her cheeks, and down onto her neck. Yuna moaned as she savored the heat of his breath upon her baby fine skin. He then continued his trail of kisses down onto her chest and downward. Yuna's breathes became slightly uneven as he continued to ravish her body with erotic pleasure and desire. She watched as he traced his tongue down her stomach, outlining her belly button and then proceeded on down.

Yuna gaspedonce she felt Tidus caress her womanhood with his tongue. The enticement overtook her mind, body and soulas he worked his magic on her. It's only when he hears Yuna moan his name that he worked his way back up on her, meeting her lips with a passionate kiss.

Before Tidus could even position himself comfortably upon Yuna, she playfully pushed him over onto his backand straddled him. Tidus chuckled a bit as Yuna pushed her hair behind her ears and smiled. She gazed into his eyes momentarily before she leaned down and placed a kiss to his lips as he slid his hands up and down the small of her back. She then mischievously traced her tongue down his neck, placing a few chaste kisses along the way. Tidus closed his eyes, softly moaning his lover's name who worked her way downward on him, however, when she got to a certain point, she stopped. Pondering the thought as to why she stopped, Tidus opened his eyes, looking down at Yuna who looked up and gave him a playful grin. Chuckling, Tidus pulled her back up onto him, taking her in his arms.

"I want you, Tidus." Yuna said with seduction in her tone.

Tidus could only look at her with the look of pure love deep within his eyes. Those are the words he longed to hear since he laid eyes upon her. To know that Yuna wanted him as much as he wanted her was enough to make his world stop spinning for a moment in time to capture this moment with her.

Tidus pulled Yuna down closely to him. "Make love to me, Yuna." He brushed her hair away from her face as it fell out from behind her ears. "I want you from tonight till forever more."

"You have me." Yuna said softly. "I'm yours forever more." She caressed his face as she leaned down and placed a passionate kiss upon his lips.

Becoming submissive, Yuna allowed Tidus to roll her back over to where he was on top. Being a bit hesitant at first, she eased her hands down to the top of his pants as Tidus watched her every move. She unbuttoned and then unsnapped them, slowly sliding her hands inside. Tidus seductively moaned at the ravishing sensations he felt be her touch. Yuna then withdrew her hands, gliding them up his chest.

A mischievous smile played upon her features as she took the top of his pants between her toes and pushed them on down. Tidus laughed at her playfulness, however, he knew that she was quite nervous and that was the main reason for her playfulness. He helped her discard his pants and he positioned himself comfortably upon her. Yuna immediately tensed up once she felt Tidus prepare to enter her and he backed off instantly. She breathed nervously as he looked at her.

"It's okay." Tidus assured her with a caress of her cheek. Yuna nodded her head with a nervous smile upon her face.

Never had Yuna been so scared in her life, but yet this is something she wanted with Tidus for quite some time now. She's never experienced nor done anything like this before wherehe has. Tidus had the experience where she didn't and that only frightened her more. She knew he could please her like no other man could, however, she was scared to take that step with him.

Feeling her relax beneath him at last, Tidus proceeded onward. Yuna closed her eyes tightly together as tears stung her eyes. The feeling was quite painful, but it was a wonderful feeling, for she was giving herself to the man she wanted to be with forever.

Tidus leaned his forehead against Yuna's. "Are you alright?" He wiped a tear away that had escaped her eye.

"Yeah." Yuna shuddered, her bottom lip quivering. "I'm fine." She reassured him with a soft smile and Tidus nodded his head.

Placing a trail of kisses along the side of her neck, Tidus began to move slowly and as Yuna adjusted to him, the pain quickly subsided and her body was flooded with ecstasy. Her breathing soon became uneven as did his own.He eventuallyquickened his movements, soft moans came at different times from each of them.

Sweat glided down Yuna's brow as strands of hair clung to the sides of her face as she moaned her lover's name. The sweat glistened upon Tidus as it ran down his body, tracing the outline of every curve and muscle upon him.

Tidus traced his tongue along the side of her neck and down upon her chest, tasting the saltiness of her sweat. He glided his hand from the side of her leg up to the top of her thigh and then back down again.

Yuna began to match his movements beneath him, which only heightened the feeling of satisfaction they were both experiencing at that very moment. Tidus caressed her lips with his as he laced his fingers with hers where he then pressed them into the mattress above her head.

Their breathing deep and uneven, their moans resembled the feelings of allurement and ecstasy that surged through their bodies where soon those feelings heightened far beyond their control.

Eventually, their moans softened and became less, their breathing slowed yet remained deep. Tidus cuddled next to Yuna as he tucked the covers around them. Yuna pulled him into a warm embrace, laying her head upon his chest.

In his arms was where she wanted to be. She didn't want that moment between them to end. Never had she felt to safe, so secure like she did at that very moment.

"Tidus. . ." Yuna trailed off. "Will things always be like this?"

Tidus shook his head. "No." Yuna narrowed her eyes in bewilderment, looking at Tidus to find out what he meant. A smile slowly spread across his face while lacing her fingers with his own. "They will only get better." Yuna only smiled, laying her head down upon him.

Morning. . .

Yuna sighed as she turned over in bed, stretching out her arms. She opened her eyes only to be greeted by a very handsome face and a smile played upon her features.

"Morning, sleepy head." Tidus teased

"What time is it?" Yuna asked.

"Almost noon." Tidus said as he got out of bed and began to put his clothes on. "I have to go to Zanarkand."

"Why?" Yuna asked

"Police business." Tidus said.

"You're not leaving me here, are you?" Yuna asked concerned.

Tidus stood up and buttoned his jeans as he turned to Yuna. "I'll be back in a few hours."

"I'm going with you." Yuna said.

"Yuna- -" Tidus trailed off.

"I'm going!" Yuna said. "Take me with you."

Tidus shrugged his shoulders. "Better get ready then. I leave in 10 minutes." Upon hearing that, Yuna scrambled out of the bed and began to get dressed.

Moments later. . .

Tidus, Shuyin and Yuna were ready to leave. Shuyin tried to convince Lenne to go with him, but she refused and decided to stay behind with Rikku and after everyone had left, Lenne and Rikku got into a heated game of Sphere Break.

Hours later. . .

Lenne and Rikku were still playing Sphere Break, that is, until Rikku yet again won another game and that highly aggitated Lenne who stormed out of Rikku's room. Rikku laughed and followed Lenne.

"I won, I won." Rikku taunted.

"Don't rub it in, Rikku!" Lenne warned playfully as she sat down on the couch in the living room. "I suck at Sphere Break! I hate that game so much!"

"I love it!" Rikku said.

"I can tell!" Lenne said "We've been playing since Tidus, Yuna and Shuyin left and that was around noon. It's now going on 7 o' clock."

"Oh! I better get ready." Rikku said. "I'm to meet Gippal down at the pub in less than an hour. You wanna come?"

Lenne thought it over for a moment then shook her head. "No. I'm gonna stay here. Yuna and the others should be back before too long. You go have fun. I'll be fine." And with that, Rikku went to get ready.

Two hours later. . .

Tidus, Yuna and Shuyin hadn't returned from Zanarkand yet, Rikku was out with Gippal and Brother went to help Cid and Nhadala out. Lenne was there at that house alone where she sat in front of the TV channel surfing.

Lenne yawned as she turned the TV channels when the phone began to ring. It rang 4 times before she at last picked it up. "Hello?" No one answered. "If you're not gonna say anything, I am going to hang up." Total silence is heard still yet. "Damn!" She then hung the phone up and it began to ring right away. Lenne narrowed her eyes at the phone and after it rang twice, she picked it up. "Hello?"

"Why did you hang up on me!" shouted a mysterious voice from the end of the line.

"Wha- -"Lenne began but was cut off.

"I asked you a question dammit!" the voice continued to shout. "Why did you hang up on me!"

"Who is this?" Lenne asked. The voice only cackled and she yet again slammed it down only for it to ring again. Frustrated, she pick it up on the very first ring.

"Wrong choice, Lenne" the voice said sternly and Lenne's heart jumped up into her throat when the voice said her name. "I told you not to hang up on me, but yet you did- - TWICE!"

"Who are you?" Lenne demanded to know and the voice yet again cackled.

"I think the main question is "Where am I"? the voice teased and Lenne's eyes widen as the fear began to emerge within her. "Guess, Lenne. Guess! I am closer than you think and I am coming for you- - NOW!" The line went dead.

In a panic, Lenne called for help. She told them of the strange phone calls and was told to hang up so that the calls could be traced. She did was she was told where only seconds later, the phone instantly rang and she answered.

"Miss, get out of that house now! The called are coming from somewhere inside the house! Get out now!"

Lenne gasped in utter shock and fright as she dropped the phone. She looked into the kitchen only to find that the cordless phone was indeed missing.

"Where am I, Lenne?" called the mysterious voice. Lenne didn't answer as she looked about in a panic. "I RIGHT BEHIND YOU!" Upon hearing that, Lenne suddenly turned and instantly let out a blood curling scream that echoed throughout the dead of night.
