The petite hallway was overwhelmed with the student population. Bustling about to their first classes of the day, which was yet to begin. Through all the commotion around her she stood still. There he was placing his textbooks away in exchange for his notebooks. Unaware that she was only a few feet away, he paid no attention that she was walking in his direction. Taking a breath she walked forward, nervous her knees knocked together, her heart seemed to skip beats.
"I have to tell him what really happened…he'll understand…he always understood—Her thoughts halted in place, not wanting to see what was in front of her, but she could not find her self to look away. Wincing at the sight her fists clamped together in anger. Approaching not far behind Rikku and Lulu came to stand beside her. With a gleeful smile Rikku placed her hand onto her shoulder, and looked into her trance like eyes, unmoved, fixated.
"What's wrong Yunie? Something the matter?" Slowly Lulu removed Rikku's hand and signaled her eyes sharply to what was happening ahead of them. Lenne had met Tidus at his locker, pushing him up against his locker, she moved closer to his lips where they held a kiss for a brief moment. It may have only been for but a moment, but it had hit Yuna hard as she bare witness to it. It felt like an eternity. Wrapping his arms around her he tightened his grip. Pulling away little by little he kissed her forehead whispering into her ear. Giggling Lenne kissed him farewell while slipping him a note into his coat pocket. Tension arose on Yuna's forehead and beads of sweat formed within her palms.
Jealousy consumed her. Her eyes blurred with hate, and disgust to Lenne. A feeling of betrayal rested heavily upon her shoulders.
Tidus turned the other way with haste so he would not be late for his first class, Smiling Lenne turned into the bathroom across the hall. Shaking her head Yuna walked into the bathroom with Lulu, and Rikku not far behind, both curious of Yuna's intentions. Lenne stood before the sink, fixing her eyeliner and applying lip-gloss had turned around to the three faces that had invaded her mirror. Picking up her purse she smiled maliciously, "Now what could it be that you want?" Yuna's vision still seemed blurred with hate. Taking only a few steps forward, she extended her hand, slapping Lenne's face. Her cold palm piercing her skin like ice. Not dropping her hand, she fixated her eyes onto the small red print she had left on her face. Lulu moving forward grabbed Yuna's hand.
"Yuna! That was not necessary!" Startled by Lulu's intrusion she pulled her hand free of her grip, returning back to her confrontation with Lenne.
"How could you!" Tears now welled into her eyes, she was hurt with a pain that couldn't be removed… betrayal…by her best friend. Smiling Lenne leaned forward, "You going to cry? Aww…how…pathetic." The last word ringing in her ears. Placing her hands still, resting at her sides. She shook her head. Stepping out of character she attempted to sound authoritive, "Lenne…you are not welcome with us no longer. Find somewhere else to sit at lunch, and kiss your social life goodbye!" Rolling her eyes she pushed between the girls, pushing Yuna to the side.
"Are you serious? Little Yuna, is going to start acting hard now? Get over yourself. Stop being jealous." Rikku stood in shock.
"She's not jealous, you big meanie…and if she was…well…she has every right to be!" Blocking Rikku, Lulu stepped ahead shielding her from a sarcastic comment she cut Lenne off.
"Lenne…you have crossed the line." Appalled Lenne placed her palm on her mouth.
"Are you saying I knew Tidus was looking for Yuna…please he wasn't interested in her when he met me—"Why…why Lenne…why are you doing this?" Smiling she leaned her head to the side obnoxiously, "I don't have to explain myself to you at all."
Stopping before the exit she turned back to Yuna, "Oh, and Yuna… Tidus says hi." Winking she flipped her hair and exited into the hall.
Her fists closed once more, ready to finish the job, she ran forward. Lulu and Rikku grabbed hold of both of her arms. Pulling her back. Tears of pain streamed down her cheeks. Biting her lip she trembled. Lulu and Rikku's words overtaking her mind and thoughts. Struggling to look into her eyes they pulled her around, away from the exit, where she refused to move.
"Yunie! It isn't worth it! Let her go!"
"Yuna…forget about it. She…isn't worth it."
