Chapter 5: Getting Ready
Its 6:00 PM, and I'm not even in my suit yet.... Rikku and I spent quality time shopping. She took about 5 hours picking out a dress. Heh, girls.
Rikku walked in holding my suit. She looks incredible in her new dress. Its hot pink--- full length, down to her feet but quite revealing. A tube dress that is, with a long slit from her thigh to the very bottom, revealing her a sexy, tanned left leg, and small white diamond cut-outs diagonally lined revealing some skin. The dress was enough, but I could see she had on a pair of white gloves and a gold bangle on her right hand, adorned with multiple diamonds. She let down her shiny golden hair, waving it at the ends only a little and wearing an exotic hot pink flower in her hair to match her dress. I also noticed a gold and diamond necklace, and some glittery pink eye shadow.
She was breathtaking. I could just stand there and gaze at her all day... I just had to have her to myself tonight.
"GIPPAL WHAT ARE YOU DOING WASTING TIME LIKE THIS? YOU DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH YOUR SUIT!" Rikku cried out impatiently.
"Hurry and change!!!" She squealed.
I was still gaping at the sight that was right before my eyes....
"You're beautiful..." I sighed as I said that.
She blushed ten shades of red and smiled, almost in disbelief.
"Umm....thanks."
I finally snapped back to reality. Oh shit I can't believe I just blabbed that out to her like that...
"OK now Cid's girl, get out so I can change!"
"OoOo you and your mood swings!" She pouted and left the room, looking quite disappointed at my sudden change of behavior.
Twenty minutes later...
I heard Rikku giggling.
"Heheheh Gippal doesn't know how to put on his tie!!"
I noticed the tie was just hanging around my neck loosely, I was dressed much more simpler--- in a white button up shirt and black pants.
"Hey you don't see me or other people around here wearing ties while working with machina! Things could get caught in the machina parts!"
Rikku rolled her eyes.
"You really should ask Baralai about this stuff..."
She came up to me and started fiddling with my tie, almost choking me. I looked down at her, I was about a full head taller than her.
"Ehh Rikku, since when do Yevonites wear ties anyways?"
"OH I DON'T KNOW, but he's certainly more... prim? I mean look at you, bad boy Gippal and your rugged machina!"
I laughed. I laughed so hard at what she just said. She just turned red and looked infuriated. Did she really think of me that way? Whatever, but it just sounded hilarious coming from her!
"Rikku, your always good for a laugh!"
"PA XIEAD OUI!" ("BE QUIET YOU!") And with that she started choking me playfully with the tie.
"Ahhh!!!" I coughed and grabbed onto her hands, trying to pry them off the tie.
"Rikku... stop!!!" Ouch.
"Nope! You deserve this!" Still choking me with the tie, I came up with an idea. I quickly grabbed her waist and tickled her before she started suffocating me.
"Noooo!!!" She started giggling. I continued.
"GIPPPPALL STTTTOPPPPP!!" She started panting. I stopped, afraid that she would die of laughter.
I chuckled.
"Looks like I win!"
"WH-WHAT?! YOU MOST CERTAINLY DIDN'T!" She pouted.
"Whatever Cid's girl. Say um, thanks for finally fixing my tie.... but its already 7:00.. I think we should get going..."
"OOOO NO! We're late!" She looked distressed.
"Calm down, I'm sure Yuna and her boyfriend will understand. Shall we?"
I offered my arm and walked elbow to elbow with Rikku down Djose bridge and towards Moonflow, North Bank.
----------------------
"Ride ze shoopuff?" Hypello asked.
"Yeah, why else would we be here? South Bank please..." Must he always ask in that same tone, same words? It just gets boring...
We got on the shoopuff, and talked a bit. Just general stuff like Home and the Machine Faction. I couldn't help but to stare at how beautiful she looked in the moonlight.
The moon had lit up her face, bringing out her dazzling green eyes... she was practically glowing.
It was such a calm, magnificent night... the Moonflow always looked radiant at this time of the day, the water rippling and sparkling. It was breezy--- it was wonderful to share such a view together with Rikku. I will never forget this night.
I thought came back to me... I had forgotten about Rikku leaving tonight. I still don't know what I'm going to do to make her stay. Whatever it is, I better get it done before the party is over.
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
When I say "suit" I mean like… formal wear… I didn't really know what else to say cause "Gippal you haven't put on your formal wear!" would sound… weird to me o.o;;… I just couldn't imagine Gippal in a tuxedo really… hes too laid back so I gave him a loose tie (my fetish hah…) XP
More chapters to come!
Make me happy and review! .
