A/N - Chapter Two. This actually took me longer than I though it would, even though it's short(again). I just couldn't think of what I was going to write in this chapter, but I did somehow. I am now putting a twist in this story. I didn't think of it until now...it's kind of a big part of the story now. I am going to start mentioning it in this chapter. You guys are probably going to figure it out though(I suck at trying to keep secrets). Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter. Oh, and thanks to the people who reviewed! :)


Yuna currently sat on the couch in her living room, tear stains evident on her face. It was Sunday. Tomorrow was the day Tidus was going to visit the school she teaches at. She didn't want to think about it. It would be so akward seeing him again after five long years. She really didn't think she would be able to go through seeing him again without falling in love all over. She kept telling herself that wouldn't happen. What if it did though? What if she fell for him after taking one look into his ocean blue eyes. What if she fell for him, but he didn't return the feelings. She couldn't take another broken heart caused by the same guy.

Yuna's jumped when she heard the phone ring. She sighed and got up to answer it. When she got to it, she picked it up and answered.

"Hello?" She asked.

"Yunie!" Yuna held the phone alittle away from her ear, hearing the over-excited voice of her cousin.

Yuna chuckled slightly, "Hello Rikku. What up?"

"Nothing really, I'm am just so ecstactic about tomorrow! I still can't believe he is going to the school!" Rikku yelled excitely.

Yuna sighed and leaned against the wall, "Yeah, about that. Rikku, I'm not feeling all that great today, and if I feel like this tomorrow, I'm going to just call in sick."

"What! Are you serious?...You can't miss this Yunie, it's a one time kind of thing." Rikku told her. Yuna closed her eyes and slid down onto the floor, "I know Rikku, but I am really not feeling good. I can't just go to school while I'm sick." Yuna hated lying, but what else was she going to say? That she can't go because she wouldn't be able to stand seeing her ex-boyfriend?

"Fine," Rikku said, defeated, "But you are going to regret it."

"Yeah, yeah. I will call you tomorrow then, okay Rikku? Be sure to tell me how it went." Yuna said.

"Okay, I will. Bye Yunie. Oh, and tell Kate I said hi." Rikku said.

"I will." Yuna mumbled

Yuna put the phone down and put her head in her hands. She hoped she wouldn't regret it


MONDAY

Tidus had just arrived in Besaid and nothing had changed a bit. Tidus smiled as he passed an oh-so familiar beach. He remembered all the times he and his friends would go there during the Summer. So many memories in such a small town. His eyes brightened as he arrived at a school that held so many more memories from childhood.

As he drove through the parking lot, Tidus then spotted Kai leaning against his car with his arms crossed, looking angry. Kai was never the kind of patient guy. Tidus gave a small smile before parking his car next to his. Tidus got out and looked at his manger's face.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

Kai shook his head, "What's wrong? Tidus, you were suppose to show up an hour ago!" He yelled.

"Well the traffic was horrible, I'm sorry." He told him while looking back at the school.

Kai sighed, "You know, you could've took your jet here, or you could've atleast came here on Saturday."

"Yeah, I know, but you know flying makes me sick. And I had practice on Saturday." Tidus said.

Kai just shook his head again and looked at Tidus, "Alright, you're late as it is, so comeon. The kids are at lunch now, so I guess this gives you the chance to meet the teachers." He said, motioning for Tidus to follow him walking towards the school entrance.

Tidus shoved his hands in his pockets. He noticed that there were no paparazzi there. Well, atleast nobody followed him.

Tidus and Kai walked through the doors of the school. Tidus looked around and took in everything. Nothing had really changed. Tidus liked that. He always hated change. He remembered trying to adjust to his new life in Zanarkand. He was so uncomfortable at first, but he eventually had got used to it. Still, he wished he could've just stayed in Besaid, it would've been better.

"This would be the principal's office." He heard Kai say, as they entered. Tidus couldn't help but to chuckle. He had been here so many times as a kid. He wasn't a rebel kid, but he wasn't a innocent one either.

The principal was there already, apparently waiting for them. Tidus looked at him and his eyes widened in shock, realizing he looked alot like someone he knew...was he?

"Baralai?" He questioned. The man looked at him and smiled.

"That's my name. Tidus...it's been awhile." He said. Tidus was still shocked that one of his best friends from high school was a principal. When did that happen?

Tidus nodded, still smiling, "Yeah, it has been. So, might want to tell me how you became a principal? I thought you wanted to be journalist?" He said.

Baralai shrugged, "I did. When it came time to actually leave the school, it was like something was holding me back, you know. I couldn't leave school behind. I mean comeon, I love it."

Tidus laughed, remembering how obsessed he was with school. He remembered how Baralai would always study for a test the day the teacher annouced it, and how he would be in the library for the most of his day, "Yeah, you were kind of crazy with school." He said laughing along with Baralai.

Kai looked very confused, "Wait...so you guys know eachother from highschool?" Tidus and Barlai looked at him and both nodded. "Oh, well that's great!" Kai then looked and his watch for a second, "Well then I actually have to go, if you don't mind Tidus. If you'll excuse me." He said before leaving the office.

"So Tidus, would you like a tour of the school?" Baralai asked.

"Yeah sure. It would be nice to see what happened to this school." Tidus said. They left the office and walked through the halls. Barlai introduced Tidus to some of the teachers, while talking to him about highschool.

Tidus wondered of Baralai knew anything about what happened to the rest of their friends. So he decided to ask him.

"Baralai...do you know what happened to everyone else?" He asked. Baralai stopped and looked at him, "Actually yeah, I do," He said, "Well, you see, alot has happened since you left. Lets start off with Gippal. Gippal works as a lawyer here in Besaid," Tidus laughed, "I know, right. He became so interested in it for some reason. He said he likes to win. I don't know what that really has to do with it, but it was his choice. Okay so anyway, Paine became psychiatrist, I guess she wanted to help other people. She also works in Besaid, and me and her are also married." He said showing Tidus his wedding ring.

Tidus chuckled and said, "I knew it. I knew you guys would make it. You didn't believe me though, did you?" Baralai laughed along with Tidus, "Well we were young, I had no idea what the future held."

Tidus shook his head, "No, you guys were soul mates, don't deny it." He told him.

"Yeah, we were, weren't we." Baralai said.

Tidus looked down and became silent. Baralai didn't tell him what happened to Yuna yet.

Barlai noticed his silence, and he knew why he was acting like this, "You want to know what happened to Yuna, don't you?" He asked.

Tidus's head snapped up, "Yeah...I do."

Baralai nodded, "She didn't know what to do after high school. She was so confused, you know. After summer was over, she finally decided." Tidus waited anxiously for what Barlai was about to say, "She wanted to be a teacher Tidus. And she did," Barlai smiled before continuing, "She works here Tidus. She is the second grade teacher." After Barlai said that, Tidus immidately started to look around.

Baralai sighed and told him, "She isn't here though today. She called in sick. She knew you were coming to visit here though. My guess is she lied about being sick so she wouldn't have to see you."

Tidus's eyes saddened, "She hates me, doesn't she?" He asked.

"No, Tidus, thats not it. It's just...I mean comeon, you broke her heart. What do you expect?" He said. Tidus was now confused. He broke her heart? She told him that she wanted to break up. She was the one who kept telling him that it wouldn't work because they were going to different colleges, while he kept telling her that he would go to the college in Besaid. She broke his heart.

Tidus was about to say something, before being interrupted by a very loud voice, "Oh...my...gosh! Tidus, it's really you!" A blonde woman came running up to him, jumping up and down.

"Tidus this is Rikku, the 3rd grade teacher. And she actually Yuna's cousin." Baralai told him.

Rikku then had a look of confusion come across her face, "Yuna? You know her?" She asked Tidus.

Tidus smiled weakly at her, "Yeah, we went to high school together, along with Baralai." He said. Rikku's eyes widened. Why hadn't Yuna told her she knew Tidus? She would have to ask her that later.

"Wait," Rikku said pointing at Barlai, "Why didn't you say that you knew him?" She asked. Barlai shrugged, "Didn't think it was important."

"Um, excuse me." Tidus said before Rikku exploded, "Baralai, if it's okay, can you please tell me where Yuna lives? I would like to see her after I'm done here, if thats okay." He asked.

Baralai smiled at him, "I think I could do that. I'll tell you after school, okay?" Tidus smiled and nodded, "Thank you." He said as the bell rang.


Yuna laid in her bed with her eyes closed, think about what would've happened if she went to work today. She could've said the she didn't regret not going today, but that would be a lie. She let acouple tears call down her face. Her life was filled with so many what-ifs. She never thought she would ever see him again, and she still might never see him. He probably already moved on. She thought. Why did she tell him to go to that college anyway? It was all because of one thing she was afraid to tell him. That one thing could've lead to him staying with her or leaving her.

Her thoughts were interrupted by the doorbell. She groaned and slowly got up. It was probably Rikku telling her how exciting it was to see Tidus or something along those lines. She walked into the living room and to the door. She slowly turned the doorknob and opened the door.

"Rikku, listen I am no-." She stopped, realizing it wasn't Rikku. She seemed to just freeze at that moment, looking into those same blue eyes of the person she thought she would never see again.

He smiled at her, his eyes shining, "Hello Yuna, long time no see." Yuna didn't say anything, she couldn't. What was he doing? How did he know where she lived? there was so many questions she wanted to ask. What are you supposed to say to the guy you fell in love with after five years apart?

"Hi?" She said in a small voice. smooth.
