Paine looked at both of her friends and sighed softly. Whats with them all of a sudden coming on to me? Paine smiled softly. "I can't believe I worried you guys this much. You act like I almost died or something."
"When I saw you take that blow and fall right in front of me I honestly thought you had." Yuna frowned and looked at Paine.
Rikku nodded. "You really did have us worried out there you know."
Buddy walked into the cabin. "Hey Shinra is finally done analyzing that sphere you guys brought back if you're up to watching it."
Paine nodded. "Yeah we'll be there in a minute." Paine watched as Buddy left and she looked at Yuna and Rikku. "Ready when you are Yuna."
"Lets finish our drinks first ok." Yuna smiled at her friends.
"Hey Yunie you know we'll be there for you no matter whats on that sphere."
Paine nodded. "Rikku's right for once. And if you do find him just say the word and I'll make sure he gets hurt."
Yuna chuckled. "Trust me you won't have to hurt him if we find him I'll take care of that. Besides you still have Shinra to hurt."
Paine smirked. "Oh yeah I forgot about him. Next time he says 'I'm just a kid' he's hurt."
The girls finished their drinks and went to the bridge. Rikku smiled. "Let's watch that sphere." Rikku bounced and stood along side Yuna as the sphere played.
:Sphere: 'Lulu looked over at Rikku and Yuna and shook her head. "You know falling in love with her would be a bad idea. We don't know if she will survive the final summoning." Tidus looked at Lulu and nodded. "Yeah but maybe having something to fight for will make her fight harder……" Tidus looked at Auron who was recording this and shook his head' :end sphere:
A tear rolled down Yuna's cheek as Paine pulled her to her and held her as she cried. Rikku frowned and rubbed Yuna's back and then held her from behind. "Its ok Yuna if this sphere exists so does he." Paine tried comforting her friend and received a funny look from Rikku. Paine smiled at Rikku and Rikku went back to comforting Yuna.
Yuna stopped crying after a lil while and pulled away from Paine. "Thank you both of you but I need to be alone right now. I'll be up on the deck if you need me." Yuna smiled slightly and nodded before walking off.
Rikku looked at Paine and they walked off to the cabin. "I'm sorry about earlier Paine really I don't know what came over me."
Paine shook her head. "It's ok Rikku. We've all been alone too long."
Rikku blushed. "But I shouldn't have done that I know how you are about emotions and displaying them and all."
Paine chuckled. "Yeah I know I'm kinda cold when it comes to the emotions department. But being around you and Yuna I've gotten better at showing them I guess."
Rikku smiled. "Yeah you have you haven't been shying away from us when we show you affection."
Paine nodded. "Yeah well with busted ribs I may shy away."
Rikku chuckled. "Well if we surprise you then you won't be shying away." Rikku grinned evilly.
"Is that so Rikku? When was the last time you were successful sneaking up on me?"
Before Rikku could answer Yuna came running into the cabin. "We're going to Besaide Island to see Lulu and Wakka and Vidina come on." Yuna was smiling and her different colored eyes shown with excitement. Rikku smiled. "That's a great idea Yunie!" Rikku danced around like she usually did when she was excited.
Paine chuckled. "You seem just as excited as Yuna Rikku."
Yuna smiled. "Are you up for a small visit to Besaide Paine?"
Paine nodded. "Yea I'm fine really you worry to much."
