Chapter 2. Where Are You?
Sunday morning, Tidus' POV
He growled, and rolled around in his king size bed. His head was aching, he vaguely remembered last night. He had been dancing with some girls, for a long time, and then he went to the bathroom with one of them. Then he'd taken her on the sink. What's the girls name again? Jenny, Jamie? Ah, what the hell. It doesn't matter anyways. The girl, whom they all met earlier, had come around 1 a.m.
She kept her word and showed up. Rikku had given her Smirnoff and after a couple of those she was dancing. He tried to come close enough to dance with her, but apparently so was almost every guy in the room, it'd been too hard. Then he didn't remember anything before he heard a crash, and a lot of laughter. Rikku and Yuna had fallen down from a table, it was hilarious watching them. Then the cops showed up and he ran, and somehow got home and woke up in his own bed.
"Honey? You should come down for some breakfast. I made eggs and bacon." His mom sat down next to where he lay, she probably thinks he was sick or something, not that he suffered from a hangover. "I'll come down in two minutes. Don't worry." He looked at her, with a groggy smile. "I know, Tidus. But no more drinking like that, okay?" how did she knew all of those things, she was like super mom!
She had to be. "..." She stroked his hair, and kissed his forehead. "Come on, sweetie." He stood up slowly and grabbed his sweatpants and a shirt of the floor. "You have to clean your room, today! Tidus." She meant the best, but he hated her nagging about cleaning his room. "I will." He threw his hands up in defeat, no reason to argue with his mom, she'll tell his dad, about all the times he had gotten home, wasted. His dad was on a business trip, to Luca. He owned one of the biggest car sale company, Dynah Motors. So he wasn't home a lot.
"Sup, bro?" Shuyin spoke to him when he sat down. He shrugged; Shuyin just smiled and drank his coffee. "Her you go sweetie." His mom sat the plate in front of him. "I'm going over to Lenne's; we are going to the coffee under Auron's place. And we're going to help clean the apartment. You should stop by later." Shuyin stood up and patted his back. "Later, man." He ate his meal, and went to take a shower. He better go help clean up Auron's place. It was his idea to have a party there too.
Yuna's POV.
She couldn't believe how many teenagers, around her age, who showed up in the café today. Everyone had a hangover. "Hi, what can I get you?" She asked a teenage boy, sitting close to the window. "One coffee, black. Please." He didn't look to good. Bags under his brown eyes, and his hair; it was a mess. "A hangover, huh?" She wrote down the coffee, and met his gaze. "How'd you know?" She smiled and picked up and old cup on the table. "Look around." He did. "Most of these kids have a major hangover." He nodded and laughed.
A couple of hours went by, and kids with a hangover and drug addicts came and went. She poured coffee, to a bunch of hookers when, Shuyin, Lenne and Tidus came. She nodded towards a table by the window to let them know it was available. "That'll be; 5, 45" She got the money, and walked to the register. Right now, it was kind of slow in business, so she walked over to Lenne and the guys. She brought some cups and the coffee.
"Hey, coffee?" They all nodded. She poured in the cups and sat down. "So, you guys look terrible!" They all glared at her, and she laughed. "Hey, I'm just stating the obvious." She shook her head at them, they're so touchy. "You don't, what the hell is wrong here?" Lenne told her, apparently not so pleased about it. "Well, I didn't drink myself senseless last night, and I took an aspirin. And loads of coffee." They looked at her a little more, before drinking their coffee, in peace and quiet. "Well, this was cozy, but I got work to do." They waved at her and she walked off.
She felt as if someone stared at her, so she looked around to see who it was. She met a blue haired guy's icy blue eyes. She got the chills down her back, and just looking in his eyes made her neck hair rise. This guy was not to be messed with, that's for sure. He wore some worn out jeans, white t-shirt and a black leather jacket. She walked behind the counter and took some orders from the customers.
The guy kept staring intensely at her, she didn't feel comfortable anymore. This guy really scared her. He took up a cigarette and lit it. She walked up to his table, since there was no smoking policy here, she couldn't let him smoke here, no matter how much he scared her. "Excuse me? Sir, there is a no smoking policy here, so I would really like if you put out that cigarette, or if you took it outside.
"She put on her sweetest smile, maybe it'll work. "You know, you're hot, so I'll listen to you, and put it out. If; you go out with me, on a date." He didn't look at her, when I proposed the suggestion, like he didn't ask, just demanded it. She looked around, she didn't wanna go on a date with him, maybe she should just let him smoke here, just for now.
"I'll let you do it this one time, but next time. You have to go." He smirked; he thought he had her now. "Hey baby, just one date. I'll behave in my best manner. Is that alright, babe?" She didn't know what to do, if she walked away, she could lose her job, if she accepted, God knows what could happen!
"I don't think that's a very good idea, I'm busy." Lame excuse. "Baby, I'll go easy on you, nothing is going to harm you, when you're with me." He didn't give up either, but he looked like he was getting annoyed, by her contempt of getting away. "Hey Seymour! She said she doesn't want to, leave her alone then!" Her white knight! She turned around; expecting it to be Shuyin, but it was Tidus. Their voice sounded almost the same.
"Dynah, this isn't any of your business. Stay out of it!" Okay, if they got in to a fist fight, it would be her head on the plate tomorrow! "Fuck off!" Tidus, started pulling her away, but Seymour grabbed a hold on her arm as well. "Let go of her, Dynah!" Tidus pulled her harshly close to him so Seymour lost the hold of her. She winced a little at the pain, from being held so hard. He pulled her behind him, and stood their in front of her. Like a rooster protecting his chicks.
"Oh, would you look at that. Dynah is trying to be the brave knight!" Some boys sitting by the table Seymour stood up from laughed. "Just let it go, Tidus. I can take care of myself." She whispered up in his ear. He glanced at her over his shoulder, which he shouldn't have done. Seymour saw his chance to throw a punch for Tidus' jaw. He backed a little, bumping into her. He touched his jaw, and chuckled.
"Is that it; Guado?" Tidus smirked and punched Seymour's nose, you could hear the bones breaking and blood were dripping out of his nose already. Seymour touched his nose, and saw the blood on his fingers. He became furious, and lunged at Tidus. And they all came crashing down to the floor. Tidus and Seymour were throwing punches at each other and didn't notice that she was in between them.
Seymour threw a punch at Tidus, but missed and he hit her left eye instead. She yelled, and the boys stopped. She stood up in a fury. "That's enough! You! Get the hell oughta here, and don't even think about coming back!" She pointed at the door, and glared at him. He looked really bad, blood running from his nose and mouth. He slowly got up and walked towards the door.
He stopped beside her, and smacked her ass, and smirking. "Take your friends with you!" She looked at his friends, and they weren't slow to get up and out. She took a deep breath, and looked at Tidus. A bruise was forming on his cheek, and some on his arms. Blood was running from some cuts in his face. She smiled weakly at him before saying to everyone else in the café: "W-we're closing now." She felt so empty, and scared. The anger had eased, and now she felt the pain in her eye, and cheek.
Tidus' POV.
He got genuinely scared when Yuna yelled at Seymour and his friends. She was so angry. The cherry on the top for her, was when Seymour grabbed her ass. She yelled a little more, before taking a deep breath and looked at him. She tried to smile, but it looked more like a grimace. She stammered a little when she announced the café were closing. No one dared saying anything, maybe they were scared she'd blow up again.
She looked at him again, and he thought she was gonna yell at him too, but she just said: "I'll get some ice for that." Gesturing towards his bruises. "And some towels." She walked into the back room.
She cleaned his cuts in complete silence. The tension between them was thick. Lenne and Shuyin had sensed that because they went upstairs to help Auron, and give them some time to talk. "I'm sorry, about earlier. If you think you could have handled it yourself, I should have respected that. I..." She shook her head and smiled at him. "Shh. It's okay. I appreciated you helping me like that. Thank you."
She met his gaze, and blushed slightly. She kept cleaning his cuts, before putting the ice on his bruise. He winced; it was really a sore spot. She gave him the ice, so he could place it there himself.
She reached for a new towel and some more ice and wrapped it together and placed it over her eye. She looked at him, and started laughing. "What's so funny?" He demanded. She laughed more, maybe even harder. "Look at us, we're pathetic!" He started laughing too; she stopped and looked at him. She leaned forward and gave him a kiss on the cheek there he weren't bruised. "Thanks, again."
Monday Morning. Yuna's POV.
She looked at herself skeptically, she had a black eye, and it was first day of school. That was an omen for a dramatic year. She covered it with make up, and looked again. There better, now it's not visible. She turned and looked around. She had gotten help from Tidus and the guys to place her bed in the room en the second floor. Since her momma wasn't home yet, she'd chosen the best room.
It was also the largest. It looked like a former studio or something. She dived down into a box to find some clothes. All she could find was a dark fitted jeans and a white wife beater. She pulled the jeans on and the top, and walked around looking for her Converse. She wandered around for five minutes, before she remembered that they were in the hall. She ran down the spiral staircase, and fell flat on her face at the bottom. That's two bad omens. This would defiantly be a dramatic year and but also a year for new experiences and changes.
"Hey, you!" Auron called out to her, when she locked the front door. She smiled and walked over to him. "So, crazy day yesterday, huh?" He heard about the fight, and everything. Lenne probably told him. "Yeah, you could say that" They walked downstairs, and out on the street, She looked up and saw all the skyscrapers.
The one they lived were much smaller than the others. They walked in silence. "HEY! Weren't you guys suppose to wait for me?!" Gippal yelled from behind them. "Fryd?!" She said to him and Auron, no one told her that, right?
"Yeah, me and Auron always, walk to the bus stop together. Done that since junior high. Wait, you know Al-behd?" He spoke really fast. She barely caught what he said. "It's Auron and I not me and Auron. But, yeah I know Al-behd. I'm half." Auron and Gippal looked oddly at her. Maybe they didn't like Al-behd's; wait Gippal is al-behd. Well maybe it was something else. Maybe it was for correcting him. "There's the bus" Auron announced.
Tidus POV.
He was driving his new car, a red Porsche. It was perfect! So beautiful, and the way it just floated across the asphalt. He was going to marry this car, no doubt about it. He just pulled up in the parking lot, when he saw Yuna. She was so beautiful, the way she walked; it was so, in the lack of better words, Hot! He noticed Auron and Gippal walking together with her. He parked the car, and jogged after them.
"Hey!" he called out to them, Yuna turned around and her face brightened with a huge grin. "Hi there, how's your eye?" She looked so gorgeous when she smiled. Auron nudged him in the arm; apparently, he'd been staring at her with a ridicules grin around his mouth. "Erhm, A lot better now" He tried hiding his stupid action earlier, by laying his arm around her shoulder. Man, she was so petite, so frail. He couldn't help but feel slightly proud holding around a girl like her. Gippal and Auron just laughed at him.
"Yo, Tidus, why don't you walk Yuna to the office? You know where it is, you're there often, right? Gippal, whom usually never said anything smart, came with the greatest idea ever. "Yeah, I'll do that! See ya later!" He waved them off, and led Yuna towards the office. Someone bumped into his shoulder, and he got pissed. "Hey watch where you're going, huh!" It was Baralai, one of the biggest losers at this school.
He was wearing some worn out jeans and a shirt, which was tucked down in his jeans. "What? You got a problem, Loser?" he let go of Yuna and walked up in his face. "eeh, I was just walking, s-sorry" You bet right he was sorry, he was just a damn loser. "Get out of my way, Geek!" He pushed him so he fell to the floor, people started gathering around them. Baralai looked like he hurt himself, but he was just a big baby anyways.
"You okay?" Yuna bent down to Baralai, and helped him up. She glared at him. "What have he done to you, that makes it okay to push him down!" She yelled at him. "He's just not…" he didn't get the chance to finish, because Yuna interrupted him. "Whatever, I don't care about it. I don't need you to walk me to the office anyways. He can walk me." She took Baralai's arm, and just walked off, leaving him there. Slightly confused.
Yuna's POV.
She couldn't help it, but she felt so good, when Tidus laid his arm around her shoulder. They walked down the hall; Tidus were telling her which classrooms they were walking by. She felt a slight bump, apparently someone bumped into Tidus. He got mad, and started yelling at the boy. She felt sorry for the boy. He was wearing, jeans, but they looked really old. And his striped shirt was tucked down in his pants.
Tidus called the boy a loser and a geek. She couldn't take it anymore. The boy fell to the floor. "You okay?" She bent down next to him, and helped him to his feet. She glared at Tidus, what gave him the right! She yelled at him. He tried giving an explanation. She cut him off; she didn't need to hear his pathetic excuse. "Whatever, I don't care about it! I don't need you to walk me to the office anyways. He can walk me." She took the boys arm, and led him away. Leaving Tidus dumbfounded.
They rounded a corner, before he spoke. "You didn't have to do that. I hope I didn't cause any problems between you two" She shook her head, and smiled at him. "I wanted to. Besides, he doesn't have the right to do that. I'm Yuna, by the way." She reached out her hand, for him to shake it. "I don't need your pity." He stormed off. "What the…?" She was just trying to be nice. She noticed she was standing outside the office, so she entered.
"Your math grades aren't the best, Miss Sawyer. But your English and Music grades are really good. Maybe you should take some advanced English and music classes. Maybe tutor some students in the subjects?"
She was in the principal's office; he told her earlier that she might have to take her math exam over again. But where on earth was her momma? "Yeah, that'd be great. But about my math exam, when do I have to take it over?" Mr. Mika leaned back in his chair, thinking. "Well, how about, next week? It'll give plenty of time to practice."
He gave her some papers for her mother to sign and dismissed her.
'Okay, Yuna you got World History now, Tidus showed you that room earlier.' She was walking around the halls looking for room 348. But she just couldn't find it. There was no one in the hallways, besides her. "Well, who do we have here?" A cold, cynical voice said behind her. It was the guy from yesterday. She turned around and met his icy cold gaze. "What do you want?" She spat at him.
He chuckled and stroked her face. His fingers were even colder than his eyes. She pushed his hand away. He got mad, of course. "Don't get an attitude with me! I've got someone you keep very dear. Your beloved mother! You don't wanna mess with me. It'll only hurt your mother more!" He was bluffing, he had to be. He couldn't have her momma! It was not possible, what did he need to do that? "You're bluffing!" She glared harder at him. "Oh, Am I? Show her!" He ordered someone behind him to show her something. It was a cell phone. It showed a woman! No, it couldn't be!
