Chapter eight: Please? Please?

Yuna barely paid any attention to anyone but Tidus and Gipple, considering they were the only one's from Tidus's team she knew. Tidus's team, the Luca Lupines, was ahead two to zero and there were only a few minutes left in the game. Though Yuna knew next to nothing about Blitzball, she knew the Luca Goers couldn't win without a miracle. Yuna looked up as she heard the buzzer on the score board, Tidus had just scored. He seemed less enthusiastic about the whole game than before. She guessed it was because of what happened earlier. Everyone around her, including Rikku, who she had ran into at the entrance to the stadium, were standing and cheering, but like Tidus, she wasn't as enthusiastic as before either. Yuna looked down at her feet and thoughts of what happened came back, she shuddered as she remembered Bickson kissing her. The final buzzer sounded and as Yuna looked up she saw the Lupines had won, three to zero.

Yuna made her way past her cousin and the rest of the crowd and headed for the locker rooms. When she was nearing the door she heard footsteps behind her. She turned and saw Rikku running up next to her.

"Going to see T?" Rikku asked as she walked beside Yuna.

"Yeah, Gipple?" Yuna asked in turn.

"Yep, yep! We're going out to eat to celebrate!" Rikku squealed, making Yuna wince. "What are you and Ti going to do?"

"I don't know, hey when we get home, I have to tell you something important, okay?" Yuna said.

"Ugyo, syh Gipple's rud!" Rikku said as they reached the locker room door.

"What?" Yuna said as she reached for the doorknob.

"Nothing," Rikku said with shifty eyes.

The two entered the room where the players who were injured or benched during the game sat and saw Bickson sitting on a bench. He looked up at them and gave Yuna a smile.

"Baby," Bickson said as he stood. "Why'd you rat on me?" He took a step towards the two of them.

"Rikku, go outside," Yuna said as she swallowed hard.

"Why?" Rikku asked though she took a step back.

"Just go," Yuna said as she turned to face her cousin. "I'll bring Gipple and Tidus to the parking lot, okay?"

Rikku nodded and turned to leave the room. "Good luck Yunie," She ran out of the room.

Yuna had moved closer to Tidus's team door and gave Bickson a wary glare as he crossed his arms and stepped towards her.

"Um," Yuna said.

"You're going to pay for getting me kicked off the team for the season," Bickson said. He was standing in front of her, close enough to get his hands on her if he chose to do so.

Yuna leaned up against the door. Her hand felt around for the doorknob and she put her hand on it. The door behind her opened and she fell back on who ever opened it.

"Woah!" It turned out to be Gipple.

Yuna mumbled an apology and climbed off of him and then crawled behind him. Bickson laughed as Gipple turned and saw Yuna clutching the back of his shirt.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Gipple asked as he took Yuna's hands from his shirt.

"Bickson," Yuna said as she scooted closer to him.

"Oh yeah, T told me what happened," Gipple turned to Bickson, "Were you messing with her again?" Yuna grabbed the tail of his shirt.

"What if I was? What would you do about it," Bickson said as he pulled Gipple to his feet, making Yuna lose her grip on him, though she still had one hand on his shirt.

"She's my friend, and you're not," Gipple said as he pushed Bickson away from Yuna and himself.

Just then Tidus came out of the locker room behind Yuna. She had let go of Gipple and was sitting on the floor. Tidus knelt down next to her.

"You okay?" Tidus asked.

Yuna nodded and then slung her arms around Tidus. Tears escaped her eyes and Tidus felt them on his shoulder.

"This just isn't your day, huh?" Tidus said with a light tone.

"Hey Baby, don't I get a hug?" Bickson said with a fake pout. Yuna looked over at him.

"Tidus, can we go now?" Yuna asked as she pulled herself closer to Tidus.

"Yeah," Tidus said as he held her as they stood. The two let go and then Tidus looked to Gipple, "Thanks for helping Yuna,"

"No prob, but let's just go," Gipple said with a yawn.

Tidus, Gipple, and Yuna left Bickson standing in the room and they went out to the parking lot. Yuna followed Tidus closely, afraid of Bickson following them. Tidus and Gipple parted and Yuna stopped for a second and then ran over to Gipple who was behind Rikku and his car. He turned around when he heard her.

"Sorry, can't drive you home, T'd kill me," Gipple said rubbing the back of his neck.

"No, um, thanks for your help earlier," Yuna said with a smile, "He was going to hurt me, but you were there, so thank you,"

Damn she's hot, oh but T likes her, and I sorta like Rikku, and I think I might want to live, T would kill me if I started swapping spit with her here. Rikku would too…Yep I choose life.

"Uh, you're welcome?" Gipple said with a shrug.

"Yuna!" Tidus yelled from across the parking lot.

"Well gotta go, bye Gipple, bye Rikku!" Yuna said as she turned and headed for Tidus.

"What was that all about?" Tidus asked as he got in the car.

Yuna climbed in and shook her head to wave off the question.

"Okay, so what do you want to do? Go home or go eat or what?" Tidus asked looking over at her.

"Um, hey are you thirsty?" Yuna asked looking in the bag she had slung around her neck. She pulled out the three cups.

"Uh…. What are those?" Tidus asked.

"Drinks, want one?" Yuna said holding out one for him.

"Will it kill me?" Tidus asked as he took it cautiously.

"It's not poison, it's a fruit drink, my mom use to make them for Shuyin when he played Blitzball. It helped him relax," Yuna said taking one for herself. She took a drink of it and then licked her lips.

Tidus took a sip of it and then another bigger one.

"Hey, this is actually good," Tidus said as he guzzled down the rest of the fruit drink.

Yuna laughed as he held his head from brain freeze, the drinks were still frozen.

"Hey, are you going to drink yours?" Tidus asked.

"I have another one," Yuna said as she handed him the other one.

He quickly drank that one and then looked at Yuna, who still had three-fourths of hers left. She sighed and then gave it to him.

"Don't worry, I didn't want it or anything," Yuna said with a pout.

"Aww man, making me feel bad," Tidus said as he handed it back to her.

"I just want a little more and then you can have the rest okay?" Yuna said.

Yuna drank a little more of it and then handed it to Tidus.

"It tastes better with fresh fruit," Yuna said as she leaned on Tidus's shoulder as he drank the rest.

"Will you make some when we go to Besaid this weekend?" Tidus asked as he finished it and then handed the third cup to Yuna to put in the bag.

"Yeah, if I can go," Yuna said with a smile.

"I want some more!" Tidus whined as he turned on the car and put it in reverse.

Yuna dozed off a few times while Tidus kept yawning as he drove. When they reached home, Yuna was completely knocked out. Tidus groaned as he went around and got her out of the car. He carried her inside where he lay her on the couch. She awoke and looked over at Tidus who was trying to keep from falling asleep himself. He looked over at her.

"You gonna ask or not?" Tidus said pointing at Cid, who was in his chair, like usual, reading a book.

"Uncle Cid?" Yuna said as she went around to him.

"Yeah?" He said looking at her over his book.

"Um, I was wondering, Tidus bought some tickets, for a trip to Besaid, for the weekend, can I go with him?" Yuna asked.

"Is it just going to be you two?" Cid asked.

"Uh, no Gipple is coming too," Tidus said as he walked over. "Cid, if it makes you feel better, I have four tickets. One for me, Yuna, Gipple, and…" Tidus said looking at Yuna. "Rikku,"

Yuna smiled at him.

"I thought you were grounded," Cid said as he looked to Yuna. Yuna sighed and looked down. "But I guess you can go," Cid gave in.

Yuna smiled at Cid and then gave him a hug. She then took Tidus by the hand and then led him into the kitchen.

"I just remembered something," Yuna said, as she looked Tidus in the eye.

"What?" He asked with a smile. "That you're going to make me another drink,"

"No! You've had two and then half of mine, you pig!" Yuna said with a laugh. "This Wednesday, the school is having a memorial for the soldiers in the war. And we're having a program, right. So, Lenne picked me to do a solo and make a speech for it." Yuna said sounding proud of herself.

"Wow Yuna, that's awesome," Tidus said as he picked her up and threw her over his shoulder. "Ready for bed?" Tidus said as he yawned.

"Yeah," Yuna said as she yawned as well. "Why'd you buy the other ticket?"

"I knew it'd help to get Cid to say yes," Tidus said as he went over to the stairs

Tidus carried her upstairs and into her room. He sat her down on her bed and then walked over to her bathroom.

"What are doing?" Yuna asked.

"Taking a shower, all my stuff is up here," Tidus said as he pointed to the bags that were laid up against Yuna's bed.

"Oh, okay," Yuna said with another yawn, "Good night," Yuna said as Tidus nodded and then went into the bathroom.

Yuna quickly changed into her pajamas, and then crawled into bed. She pulled her blanket over her and then curled up under it. In a few minutes she was fast asleep.

Tidus came out of the bathroom with a towel around him and grabbed one of his bags and then went back in. A few minutes later, he came out with a pair of night pants on and went over to Yuna's bed. He knelt down next to her bed and looked at her sleeping body. She wore a smile on her face. Tidus moved a stray piece of her hair from her face and her eyes slowly opened.

"It's not morning already is it?" She asked as she yawned.

Tidus laughed at her, which made her, give him an evil glare.

"You can use the bathroom now, you know, brush your teeth or whatever," Tidus said as he stood and stretched.

"Thank you," Yuna said as she got up and went into the bathroom.

Tidus gave a small laugh as he went to the other side of her bed and got down on the floor to hide himself. Yuna came out of the bathroom and took a shower. She came out and grabbed some more clothes and then went back in. After she had gotten dressed she came out and then looked around the room.

"Where'd he go?" Yuna said to herself, though she said it out loud.

Yuna turned off her light and then crawled back into bed. She was facing opposite of where Tidus was hiding. He waited a few seconds and then slowly rose. He put his arms over her body and then grabbed her.

"Ready for some fun Baby!" Tidus said with an impression of Bickson.

Yuna let out a cry and froze. After a few seconds, Tidus heard her crying. He pulled himself over next to Yuna.

"Yuna?" Tidus asked, feeling like shit for doing what he just did.

"Tidus," Yuna said through tears, "That wasn't funny, you really scared me," Yuna said as she rolled over to face him. "I thought you were Bickson," Yuna turned back to where she had been before.

"Yuna, I'm sorry," Tidus said as he leaned over and hugged her. "You can hit me if you want, I didn't think you'd really believe it was Bickson,"

"Tidus. Do you not remember everything, I was scared when I was with you in the car, for Yevon's sake. Tidus, I thought he had followed me, so he could get me back, cause he can't play for the rest of the season."

"Yuna, I'm so sorry, really I am," Tidus said as she gave him a questioning look from where he looked like he was about to say something.

I know he meant it as a joke, but I really thought it was Bickson.

"Just don't do it again, okay?" Yuna said as she shook the thought from her mind.

"Okay, good night," Tidus said as he gave her a kiss on the forehead and stood. He left the room, leaving a blushing Yuna to sleep.

Friday morning

"Yunie, wake up," Rikku said as she shook Yuna. "Come on, you can wake up Tidus," Rikku then climbed off of Yuna's bed and headed for the door. She the turned back to Yuna. "Hey, what was it you wanted to ask me last night?"

I was going to tell her about Bickson, but that might not be such a good idea after all.

"Did Cid tell you about Besaid?" Yuna asked.

"Yeah, Tidus did tell you we have to leave school at lunch, right?" Rikku asked.

"No, he didn't," Yuna said as she went over to her dresser. I have to practice for the program though. "Go, I need to get dressed.

"Well don't forget to wake your boyfriend," Rikku said as she closed the door behind her as she left.

Yuna got dressed, she wore the black shirt Tidus had got her and she slipped on a pair of blue jeans. She went into her bathroom to get ready and then came out a few minutes later. She grabbed her shoes and then ran downstairs. She saw Rikku cooking breakfast again. She went past her and then went into the living room. Tidus was lying on the couch with a blanket over one leg and half his body hanging from the couch. She walked over and knelt down next to the couch.

"Tidus," Yuna said as she shook his shoulders, he groaned and then put out his hand to her chest trying to push her away. Yuna fell backward to avoid his hand, and fell back on her rear. Tidus yawned and then pushed himself up as his arm went limp. He looked over at Yuna and then gave her a confused look as she gave him an angry look.

"YOU PERVERT!" Yuna cried as she looked away from him.

"What? What you calling me a pervert for?" Tidus said back to her as he sat up.

"You tried to touch my…." Yuna started.

"I told you I'd do it when we weren't in school," Tidus said with a shrug.

Yuna's mouth opened a little to reply, but she was a little shocked.

"Yuna I was kidding," Tidus said with a smile, "I was asleep, it was an accident,"

"Sure it was, sick-o," Yuna said as she started to get up.

Tidus got up and went over to her, offering her his hand. She took it and he pulled her to her feet. She pulled herself from his grip and walked away towards the kitchen. He followed her and took a seat next to her after she had sat down herself. She gave him a disgusted look and then turned away.

"It was an accident," Tidus pleaded.

"What was an accident?" Rikku asked as she sat their food down.

"I was 'asleep' and was trying to push her away and I almost touched her, uh, I'm not going to say it so Yuna doesn't slap me," Tidus said with some humor.

Tidus laughed as he began eating.

"Jerk," she said softly under her breath.

"I heard that!" Tidus cried as he poked her in the side making her giggle slightly before hitting him.

"Stop!" She cried as he continued to tickle her.

Yuna continued trying to make him cease tickling her sides. Tidus finally stopped laughing at the tears in Yuna's eyes from all the laughing she had done.

"I can do it again later, can't I Rikku?" Tidus said with a smirk.

"Right," Rikku said though she gave Tidus a warning look. "So it's cool we don't have to go the whole day huh?"

"Yeah about that, Tidus," Yuna said, "I really need to practice today, I've almost got this song down,"
"But the boat leaves at one. And besides you have until Wednesday to learn it right?" Tidus said as he gulped down his food.

"Yeah but…" Yuna said.

"You can sing it in Besaid so you don't forget it, just ask Lenne for the lyrics so you can practice," Tidus said with a shrug as he finished eating. He put his plate in the sink and went upstairs. "Using your bathroom again!" Tidus called halfway up.

"Just think of it this way Yunie, you can see him naked anytime if you just walk into in your room." Rikku said with a laugh.

"Rikku! That's wrong, I don't want to see him," Yuna started to say.

"Sure you don't," Rikku said as she left the table, "But I do!"

"Rikku! No! I thought you liked Gipple," Yuna yelled after her.

"I was kidding!" Rikku yelled from halfway up the stairs. "Why do you care so much anyone hmm?"

"I don't," Yuna said. Rikku shook her head and bounded up the stairs.

Yuna sat at the table; eating alone, until she was finished did Rikku come back down. Yuna put her dishes in the sink to be washed later tonight by Cid.

"Can I ride with you today?" Yuna asked Rikku as she nearly tripped at the question.

"Uh, no offense, but don't you want to ride with T?" Rikku asked as she went over to where Yuna was standing. "Are you mad at him or something?"

"No, not really, I just want to talk to you," Yuna just said with a shrug.

"Oh, sure, I guess, but what you gonna tell him?" Rikku asked.

"You'll see," Yuna just said. She went over to her bag, and then she pulled out her homework.

"Oh, bad girl, didn't do your homework again?" Rikku said, "How about T?"

"I don't know or care, he should worry about it," Yuna said as she worked on hers.

"Sure," Rikku said with a shake of her head. She'll let him copy it. He won't even have to beg.

Tidus came down stairs and saw Yuna doing her homework. He ran up behind her and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Hey, can I copy that?" Tidus asked as he looked over at her as he leaned on her shoulders.

"No, you can do it," Yuna said putting it up.

"Why? Please?" Tidus asked.

"Tidus I told you no," Yuna said as she put all of her books in her bag. She picked it up and went over to the couch in the living room.

"Fine, I just won't do it," Tidus said a little upset Yuna had been so harsh with him.

Yuna suddenly felt bad and sighed. "You can copy it in homeroom,"

Tidus ran over to her and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Thanks Baby," He said with a smile. Yuna looked at him a little angrily.

"Tidus will you stop!" Yuna yelled as she grabbed her bag and ran out the door.

"Yuna?!" Tidus called after her as he grabbed his things, he was going out the door when she slammed it in his face.

"Leave me alone!" Yuna yelled as she ran towards Rikku's car. She climbed in and then locked all the car doors.

Tidus opened the door and then ran over to the Rikku's car. He tried asking Yuna to open her door, but she just turned away.

"Yuna please open the door," Tidus said as he leaned on the door. "I'm sorry, I won't do it again,"

"I told you, you know I'm terrified of Bickson," Yuna yelled at him, "But you treat it like it's a joke! It may be funny to you, but it's not to me!"

"I said I was sorry," Tidus yelled back at her, "But you're so freakin' sensitive! You cry over everything even if it's a joke!" Tidus slammed his hands down on the window, causing her to jump. "You're so freakin' annoying! You whine and whine! Sorry your sensitive ass can't take it!" Tidus yelled.

"Bickson almost killed me! You don't care about my feelings, as long as you can get a joke out of it later!" Yuna cried.

"Sorry, you're so damn sensitive, and don't tell me I don't care. I do, but if you think I don't, next time Bickson has you, I'll tell him, he can rape you for all I care!" Tidus said as he flung his arms up in the air. He hadn't meant it, but it fooled Yuna.

Yuna turned and looked up at him. She had tears in her eyes and then she yelled three words Tidus was not expecting from her. "I hate you!" She put on her seatbelt and then continued to cry as she turned away from him.

"Yuna…," Tidus said soothingly.

"Just leave me alone!" Yuna cried, "I told you! I hate you!"

"Well, I don't," Tidus, said with a sigh as he looked down. "I could never hate you," Tidus turned and went over to his own car where he got in and pulled out of the driveway. Yuna just watched him as he drove off.

Rikku came out of the house and saw Yuna sitting in the car crying. She ran over to her door and used her car keys to get in.

"Yunie, what's wrong?" Rikku asked with concern. "Did T leave already?"

Yuna nodded and looked at Rikku, "I told him I hated him, but I didn't mean it, it just came out,"

"Yunie, it's okay, he'll get over it," Rikku said comforting her cousin. "T knows you don't hate him," Rikku said as she turned on the car and pulled out of the driveway, heading towards the school.

"Maybe…maybe it's good he thinks that I hate him," Yuna said as she turned to Rikku.

"Why would that be a good thing?" Rikku asked, "I thought you like him."

"I do, but that thing that's happening on New Year's Day," Yuna said.

"Yuna, you don't have to do that!" Rikku said as she looked at her. "Just say no!"

"I can't do that!" Yuna cried with a shake of her head. "You know what would happen if I said no!"

"But, it's not fair to you and Shuyin," Rikku said with a sigh.

"I know, but we have to," Yuna said with a sigh as well, "Could you drive slower so we arrive a while after he does."

Tidus walked though the halls, he wasn't really paying attention to where he was actually going. He walked right over to Yuna's locker, he didn't even realize it was hers until he had opened it. When he opened it, a note fell from the locker door. He reached down tot he floor to pick it up, he was going to just put it back when he decided against it. She's already said she hated me, what could it hurt Tidus opened the note and then groaned. It's good I did see it. It was from Bickson.

'See you Wednesday, Baby'

"Oh Yevon," Tidus said, "She'd freak out!" He hit his self in the head as he slammed it up against the locker.

Tidus ran to his locker and grabbed his books and then ran through the crowd of people and back to Yuna's locker. After waiting a few minutes he saw her walking toward him, or really her locker. When she reached him, he opened his mouth to speak, but she beat him to it.

"What do you want?" Yuna asked sadly.

"Look, uh this was in your locker and I just want you to know…" Tidus began explaining.

"Why were you in my locker? I didn't give you permission to do that!" Yuna said to him.

"It was like a habit, of going to your locker," He held out the note to her, "But you might want to read this," A small innocent smile spread across his lips.

Yuna took the note from him and then unfolded it and read it. She sighed and then a few tears fell from her eyes as she looked down.

"Yuna, I promise…." Tidus started.

"You just don't when to stop do you?" Yuna cried as she looked up at him. "How could you do that?" Yuna pushed him away from her, even though she hardly pushed him, Tidus had been hurt, in his heart. "It's not funny! So stop!" Yuna turned and started walking away.

"What? Yuna, I didn't write that!" Tidus said in defense.

"Well, gee, you think I'm going to believe you. You've been picking on me since last night!" Yuna cried as she turned to face him.

"That really is from him, I didn't write that," Tidus said walking over to her. He wrapped her in a hug. "You were right earlier, I've been acting like an asshole. I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have kept saying 'Baby'. And I didn't mean what I said earlier, about everything, I was just mad because you blew up on me. Even though I deserved it."

"Yes you did deserve it," Yuna said struggling to get out of his embrace.

"I'm sorry, it won't happen again, I swear," Tidus said holding her tighter.

"Promise you won't do it again," Yuna said as she looked up at him as she pulled away.

"I promise," Tidus said seriously, and then smiled and said, "Only if you sing for me this weekend."

"No!" Yuna cried as she got out of his grasp. "That's not fair, you can't hear me until Wednesday!"

"Fine, I'll just call you Baby, or what, better yet, he can come with us and you can spend the whole weekend with him!" Tidus laughed. Yuna just looked up at him with a hurtful look in her eyes. "I'm kidding, you don't have to if you don't want, but I'll stop," Tidus said. "But we need to go to homeroom, I still need to copy your homework," He gave her a small smile.

"Okay," Yuna said as she grabbed his hand and pulled him through the halls.

They got to homeroom and went in to find their seats in the back of the room, but when they got there, they were taken. They'd have to sit separately. Tidus took the seat next to a short blonde who was sitting though her leg was bouncing like she had drank thirty cups of coffee, while Yuna sat next to the boy named Kohaku. The blonde turned to Tidus.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm Molly!" She said bouncing up and down, "You're cute, was that your girlfriend? It was wasn't it? That's too bad, but good for her! So, who you is?"

"Uh, okay, Tidus," Tidus said scooting a little farther away.

"Oh, sorry about the hyper-ness, but I'm really nervous. New school and all," Molly said settling down. "I'm just a little, nervous,"

"That's cool," Tidus said with a smile. "Just relax."

Meanwhile, Kohaku wouldn't talk at all.

"I'm Yuna," Yuna said looking at his face, but he looked away from her. "I'm sorry, I'll stop. Sorry for bothering you," Yuna looked down at the desk.

Kohaku looked up at her. "No, no, you're not bothering me, it's just, uh, I'm not really use to…." Kohaku said trying to explain. "Uhhh, I don't really talk to anyone that much. It's not you, it's me."

Yuna looked up at him and smiled. "That's okay, I'm usually not either," She cocked her head to the side, like she did with Tidus when she wanted him to know she was okay.

Kohaku gave a small smile in return and then sighed. "No one talks to me that much. They haven't since my sister died anyway. Even my dad ignores me," Kohaku said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

He does the same as Tidus, I feel sorry for him. Yuna gave him another smile. Tidus looked over at Yuna. He gave her a wave, but she ignored him and kept talking to Kohaku.

That little poor kid, Kohaku I think that's his name. He's nice and all but, man he's annoying. Now he's hitting on Yuna! Oh my Yevon! Yuna laughed about something and then leaned close to Kohaku. She put her hand on her head and gave Kohaku a painful look. What the hell? Yuna then completely fell on Kohaku.

"Um, Miss Yuna?" Kohaku said as he held her. She had collapsed and fell on Kohoku, who was too confused to do anything. Kohaku turned to Tidus. "Master Tidus, something's wrong,"

"What's wrong? What happened?" Tidus said as he jumped out of his seat and ran over to Kohaku and Yuna. Kohaku held her up for Tidus to take her and then stood as well.

"Will she be okay?" Kohaku asked. Molly ran up behind Tidus.

"Kohaku, did you kill her?" Molly asked.

"No of course not Miss Molly," Kohaku said with a shake of his head as he held his hands up in defense.

Paige and Ellie walked up behind him.

"What happened? We saw her pass out on Kohaku, but that was it," Ellie said.

"I'm gonna take her to the nurse, tell Coach Deaton, for us okay?" He said to Kohaku.

"Yes, Master Tidus," Kohaku said with a slight bow.

"And Kohaku," Tidus said as he shifted Yuna in his arms. "No more Master for me, aight?"

Tidus walked out of the room and carried Yuna to the health room. Yevon, she's gotten heavier, but I guess that's a good thing for her, but damn it only feels like she gained five pounds, considering how skinny she was on Monday, like she hadn't eaten in a week. When he got there no one was in the office.

"Dammit," Tidus cursed under his breath.

Yuna shifted in his arms, she opened her eyes and then looked up at Tidus.

"What's going on?" Yuna asked as she lay her head on Tidus's shoulder.

"You passed out, you have been eating right?" Tidus asked looking down at her.

"Uh-huh," Yuna said.

Tidus sat down on the bench to wait for the nurse or the secretary while he held Yuna in his lap.

"What were you talking about with Kohaku?" Tidus asked, his curiosity getting the better of him.

"He was telling me about his sister, Sango," Yuna said with a sigh. "It's sad, you know?"

"Yeah, sad," Tidus said. "Why'd you pass out? You've been eating, haven't you?"

"You've asked that already," Yuna said with a smile.

"Yeah, and now I'm making sure you're not lying," Tidus said as he put his chin on top of her head. "Feel better, now?"

"A little," Yuna said as she cuddled closer to Tidus, which was difficult to do, considering she was right on top of him.

"Good, because you need to get off before someone comes in and gives us detentions for touching each other or something," Tidus said as he lifted her onto the seat beside him.

"Oh, you were warm," Yuna pouted.

After waiting for about ten minutes and no one coming in, Tidus stood and Yuna looked up at him.

"You feel okay?" He asked as he got down at eye level with her.

Yuna nodded and then put her arms around his neck. "I don't…. I don't hate you," She began crying and she held onto him tighter and then cried harder.

"I know," Tidus said as he held her.

"I didn't mean it," Yuna whispered through her tears, "I'm sorry."

"Let's just go back to class, alright? We'll come back if you feel bad again, and I still need your homework," Tidus said with a smile.

Yuna nodded but didn't let go of him. Tidus couldn't see her face but could tell she was still crying, because of the way her body continued to shake.

"Yuna, we can't leave until you calm down," Tidus said as he held her closer to him.

"Sorry," Yuna said as she began breathing normally again.

After letting Yuna calm down, they left the room. When they got back to the room, Mr. Deaton asked them for a pass.

"There wasn't anyone in the office, so we waited but no one came," Tidus explained.

"How do I know that's what you two were doing?" He said. "Both of you will have lunch detention today. Yuna sit up front Tidus in the back."

"That's not fair! We were in the damn office waiting on the nurse!" Tidus yelled as he made his way to the back of the room. "It's not our fault she can't do her damn job!"

"Tidus, get out!" Mr. Deaton said as he pointed at the door.

"And go where. Can I take Yuna so I can make out with her in the janitor's closet or something?" Tidus said sarcastically. "She passed out!"

"Get!" He yelled, "You're going for you behavior, not because what you may have did with Ms. Farber."

"Man that's bullshit!" Tidus yelled as he kicked the door open and left the room.

Yuna was surprised when he started yelling, she had actually been afraid of him when he walked up to the front of the room and yelled at Mr. Deaton, who then turned to Yuna.

"Go calm his tail down," He said pointing to the door, "He's likely to get himself suspended with that attitude."

"But…. Yes sir," Yuna said reluctantly. She didn't really want to be around him when he was this mad, even though she was sad when Mr. Deaton told him to leave. She hated being without him in the same room. She got up and left the room.

As soon as she walked out into the hallway she turned and saw Mrs. Taylor yelling at Tidus.

"Tidus you've been in school for thirteen years and you should know better than to be running in the halls, watch where you're going!" She yelled at him.

"You're the one who was in my way, it was an accident anyway," Tidus said as he rolled his eyes.

"Tidus go to the office," Mrs. Taylor said, "Tell them I sent you up there,"

"That's where I was going until you got in my way," Tidus yelled as he walked off.

"I'm not finished! Get back here, Tidus!" Mrs. Taylor yelled after him.

"Can't. I'm going to the office!" Tidus yelled as he walked away.

"Tidus!" She yelled.

Yuna walked past Mrs. Taylor and followed Tidus.

"Yuna? Where are you going?" She asked her making Yuna turn to face her.

"To the office," Yuna said, "It's not Tidus's fault, he's just having a bad day," Yuna said as she turned and went after Tidus.

When she turned the corner, she saw Tidus at the end of the hallway. She let out a whistle that wasn't too loud, but loud enough to get his attention. He turned to face her and then just turned back around and kept on walking. What's his problem, is he mad at me? Yuna broke out into a run. She was halfway down the hall when someone grabbed her making he let out a cry. It was one of the school's janitors who had grabbed her arm and pulled her over to the wall.

"What are you doing walking through the halls alone?" He pushed her up against the wall, "Some skipping guys might want a chance at you," He said with a crooked smile.
