"Yunie! Could you be any luckier? Any girl would kill to be in your position!" Rikku said once they were in the car.

"Rikku, please, it's not like we're dating or even hanging out as friends. I'm tutoring him in history. We're probably not going to talk about anything but school. Besides, as good looking as Tidus is, I've had a crush on Joshua for awhile and I think I'm finally getting somewhere," she said.

"Alright, well Tidus is really nice guy. You could be surprised," Rikku grabbed her bag and jumped out of the car. "Thanks for driving me! Have fun at rehearsal!"

"Wait! Rikku! Do you need me to pick you up?"

"Nah I can get ride," she said.

"Ok, well if you end up needing a ride then just call me!" Yuna said waving.

"Bye! I'll see you tonight," Rikku yelled as she dashed off towards the gym. Yuna and Rikku were cousins, but Yuna lived with Rikku, Brother and her uncle, Cid. Yuna loved living with them and had been since she was 7. Even with the 1 year age gap, (Yuna was a senior and Rikku a junior) Yuna and Rikku were best friends. Yuna reached into her bag and pulled out her cell phone.

"Hey Lu, you need a ride to rehearsal?" she asked.


"Yo! Tidus, why you so late?" Wakka yelled once Tidus had made it to the field.

"Mr. Van Allen wanted to talk to me about getting a tutor, seeing as I'm failing the class," he said. Wakka laughed. "It's really not funny," Tidus said.

"Yeah…I know. Who's tutoring you? Mr. Van Allen?" Wakka asked.

"Nah, he suggested Yuna. She seems nice," he said kicking the ball towards Wakka.

"Yeah she's good friends with Lu. I like her. She's got a really good voice," he said. "So when do you have to start?"

"I'm not sure. We have to put so many hours in and depending on how much I improve will say whether we continue. I guess I'll call her tonight or something."

"I've never heard you care so much about school," Wakka said, kicking the ball to Tidus. He kicked it up and hit it back with his knee.

"Well, I can get kicked off the team. I think I'm going to run a lap or two," he said jogging past Wakka. Tidus enjoyed running, if he wasn't playing soccer all the time, he probably would've join the cross country team. He liked being alone with his thoughts. Today all he could focus on was failing. If he was kicked off the team for failing his life would be pointless. He lived, breathed, and slept soccer. Hell, he even dreamt about soccer. He was glad Yuna was willing to help him. Her reputation was being the smartest girl in school. Everyone seemed to like her too; she was always friendly and willing to help people out. Tidus kept reminding himself to thank her and give her something she might like.

"I think I should get Yuna something as a thank you, you know for helping me out," Tidus said once he returned to the practice. "Do you know anything about her?" Tidus had never had any classes with her since she took all the high leveled courses and he took the low leveled courses.

"Well I know she's really into singing and stuff. She writes her own music all the time."

"That's impressive," Tidus said thinking he couldn't even pluck out a note on the piano or any instrument for that matter, even if he tried. "What if I got her a notebook for like writing lyrics and notes down in? You know there's that music shop in town," he said basically thinking out loud.

"I think she'd probably like that," Wakka said. "Hey I gots an idea! Why don't we go get it after this and then you can come when I go pick up Lu at their rehearsal?" Wakka suggested. Tidus thought, he definitely had money on him and he would've asked Wakka for a ride anyway, so it was a good plan.

"Sounds good," he said.


"Yeah, Tidus is nice. He's one of the only friends of Wakka's I actually like," Lulu said to Yuna during a short five minute break.

"That's good."

"Why do you ask?"

"I have to tutor him in history," she said.

"Have to?" Lulu asked.

"Well, I mean I AGREED to help," she said.

"Yuna, are you sure you have time? You have a lead, you know you have to be here a lot," she said.

"Well, yeah I can make time. Tidus plays soccer so he has practice around the same time. Plus he seems like he really needs help so I figured why not?" she said.

"You're just too nice sometimes Yuna," Lulu said. "Now get up and sing the finale so we can go home," she said. Yuna laughed and ran towards the stage.


"How about this one?" Tidus asked Wakka opening a note book that was half sheet-music and half notebook paper. It had musical notes over the cover.

"Just pick one, Tidus," he said yawning. "We've been here for ten minutes. It's not like this is the presents to end all presents."

"Yeah I guess, I just want it to be good. She probably doesn't have a ton of time," he said.

Once he had decided on the half and half notebook, Wakka drove them to the middle school where the musical would be performed. The high school's auditorium just wasn't big enough to hold the production. When they went inside Yuna and Lulu were standing among some younger students laughing. Tidus noticed Yuna paying particular attention to Joshua Yolinger.

"Hey Wakka," Lulu said kissing his cheek.

"Hey…" he said shyly. Wakka and Lulu had been going out for almost 5 months now, but Wakka still acted shy around her sometimes.

"Hey Tidus," she said smiling.

"Hey Lulu, what's up? How goes the musical?" he said.

"Really well, it's coming along. You scabbing a ride as usual?" she asked. Tidus laughed.

"Yeah, but I also wanted to talk to Yuna," he said. Yuna glanced over when she heard her name. She smiled and waved. Tidus motioned for her to come over. She paused saying something to Joshua and the others.

"Hi Wakka, hey Tidus," she said walking over.

"Hi Yuna, I wanted to ask you when you wanted to start lessons?" Tidus asked.

"Oh…um any time really. It just has to be at night seeing as I have rehearsal. I assumed you have soccer practice anyway," she said.

"Yeah, I do. Is tomorrow night ok? My house?" he asked.

"Yeah that's fine. I'll need directions," she said. "I gotta get home; Rikku and I are cooking dinner since its Brother's first night home from college."

"Wait, Yuna," Tidus said. "I know it's probably a pain to tutor me. So I got you something," he said pulling out the bag. "Wakka told me you really like music and stuff so I hope you can use something like this." She pulled the book out of the bag and flipped through the blank pages.

"This is wonderful! Thank you so much. You didn't have to get anything. I really don't care. I want to help you out," she said. He smiled.

"Yeah I know, but I just thought, it was the least I could do," he said.

"Well, thank you. I really do have to go though, so I will see you tomorrow," she said. "Bye you guys," she said waving to Lulu and her other friends. Joshua glared at Tidus and Yuna was worried he would get the wrong idea. Yuna had been crushing on Joshua since the beginning of her junior year. It seemed that this year, he had finally taken notice to her and she didn't want to miss her chance. She grasped the notebook tightly. She was thankful to Tidus for his generosity, but she hoped Joshua didn't think they were dating.

Tidus was pleased with his gift idea and he hoped Yuna liked it. Though this didn't help either of them in the rumors department. So much for trying to lay low.
