A/N Well, hello again! I know, it took me a while to update, but now that it's the Holidays, you can expect a lot of updating! 2 weeks of school, woo hoo! Yay! Let me also explain something, one reviewer suggested that I make my chapters longer, well, I also thought about that. I will try to make them a bit longer, but the writing time I do have is very small. I'm sorry if they aren't always long, but I have a minimum goal of 1000 words per chapter. Anyway, here this chapter goes! Thank you to those loyal reviewers who review every time I update!
Much Love

Yuna looked down to her feet. Tidus, why was he there? Out of anywhere he could've been, he had to be there? Yuna felt herself start to tremble as she replayed their romantic scene in her bedroom. Her whole body felt like it was on fire. How she felt when Tidus touched her and kissed her, it was like no other feeling. If Rikku hadn't ruined their moment, maybe him and her would be at the mall, not him and Dona. Thoughts raced through Yuna's mind. What she had felt for Tidus, was it real? Then she remembered, he never did give her an answer on if he would go to the dance with her.
Rikku shot Yuna a look that showed she was sorry. She immediately ran over to her cousin's side.
"Yunnie, I'm sorry he's here!" Rikku grabbed Yuna by the arm and then hugged her, causing the whole group to stop in their tracks and turn their attention to the sad girl.
Yuna looked at where Tidus was, he was rapidly approaching. She just wanted to walk the other way, but she couldn't. There was no doubt in her head that he had already seen her. So now what? What could Yuna do? She didn't want him to see that she was hurting from what he had done.
Suddenly, him and Dona came. They were right in front of the group. It was almost as if Tidus wanted to tease Yuna and show off his new prize to her.
"Hello unfortunates!" Dona laughed as the words came out of her mouth, then turned towards Tidus and pulled him in for a kiss.
Yuna shuddered as she saw the two embrace each other. A few hours ago, that was her, not Dona.
"Hey Gippal, what's up Wakka?" Tidus high-fived the two and shifted his eyes to Dona, and then back to the two of them.
"Nice!" Gippal mouthed to his friend.
Rikku, hearing this, walked away from Yuna and up to Gippal, then punching him in the arm.
"That's what you get!" Rikku glared at him and turned to Dona. "Why are you talking to us if we're so unfortunate?"
Tidus looked over at Yuna who leaned over the railway and looked down at the people on the first floor, walking around to shop for their own reasons.
Yuna wouldn't even look their way. She wanted all too badly to avoid Tidus' looks that he would give. He didn't care about her, so why would she care about him?
Dona glared at the group and smiled up to Tidus.
"I wanted to show off my new prize!" Dona looked at the group victoriously. She knew she really did have the prize. She just didn't know how bad Yuna wanted to have Tidus as well.
Rikku looked back over to Tidus who was avoiding the group's obvious icy glares.
"How could you? How on earth could you bring another girl up to us, in front of Yuna, and then have the nerve to even talk to us?" Rikku stared at him straight in the face, showing no signs of fear in her eyes or her voice. Never had she seen such pretty eyes, such as Tidus', go to waste. She then stole a look at Yuna. "Don't you have anything to say, Yuna?"
Yuna finally felt ready to look Tidus in the face as much as it may hurt her. She walked and joined the group and walked in a careless manner.
"So, where to next? I want to buy something pretty for the dance. Did I tell you guys I was going with Seymour?" Yuna couldn't help feeling a feel of victory when she said that in front of Tidus. Yuna stole a glance at Tidus and glanced long enough to see a look of jealousy find its way onto his face. Her job was done.
Yuna smirked as she turned her head away from him. Though her friends gave her looks like she was insane, all she cared about was getting Tidus back for the pain and hurt that he has caused her. Yuna turned away from the group and walked away, only turning to find she was being followed, not by her friends, but by Tidus. Yuna saw him and turned her back towards him and walked faster. They left Dona and her friends in their wake.
"Yuna, stop for one minute." Tidus said to her as he grabbed her wrist and spun her around.
"I don't care what you want, I don't care what you think, and I sure as hell don't care about you!" Yuna felt herself yelling in the middle of the mall. People around them stopped to see what was going on, only to find a fighting couple.
"Why did you invite me to the dance if you were going with Seymour?" Tidus looked at Yuna, almost with a sad puppy-dog look in his eyes. Yuna felt a pain in her heart for being mean to him, but hey, who was the one who had someone new hanging all over them?
"I felt sorry for you because you were new at school." Yuna lied. She knew she liked him, but hopefully, he didn't know, then he would think she was a lier.
"Yuna, why are you being this way? You weren't like this earlier?" Tidus looked extremely sad. Part of him wanted to just grab Yuna and take her problems away, then the other part of him wanted to hate her until she died.
"You are the one with Dona! Who, by the way, is the school slut, in case you haven't noticed! If you wanted to go with me so bad, you would've said yes and you definitely wouldn't bring Dona to the mall and drag me away to talk to me while she was with you!" Yuna felt the emotions she tried so hard to conceal resurface again.
"Whatever! You are a bitch, Yuna! I can't believe I ever loved you! I guess I was fooling myself! But I will say that I wasn't using you, your cousin is crazy!" Tidus turned and walked back to Dona, then putting his arm around her waist.
"He loved me?" Yuna stared off as she watched Tidus walk off.
Yuna's friends ran to her side to comfort the sad and pitiful looking Yuna. When her friends reached her, they all encircled her, giving her a group hug.
"He loved me?" That was all Yuna could manage.
A/N: Well, it was my longest chappie yet and I am proud to say that it is also my favorite. I will tell you ahead of time that I really do enjoy making twists in my stories, so you can expect some interesting things in the future! I did try to stretch this chapter out. I was also originally going to leave it at a cliffhanger after Yuna announced that she was going to the dance with Seymour, but that would've been too short! Anyway, I will update tomorrow. By the way, thank you to those few loyal reviewers who keep coming back for more! I'm glad you enjoy the story!
