CHAPTER 9
: Truly, madly & deeply (It's Showtime � Part 1)
_____________________________
The
softness of his lips on her bare skin made her shiver all over, the sensation
of his warm breath near her hips almost driving her crazy and unable to keep
her pleasure from escaping her lips. Pressing a soft kiss underneath her
bellybutton, Shuyin wanted to make their lovemaking last for an eternity,
exploring the body of his goddess for the rest of his life. They both weren't
in a rush, they had all the time, and he wanted to see her face being taken
over by the feelings his touch brought on her.

But first the cute blue and white panties have to go...

Softly moving his arms up her body, he slowly crept up, his mouth never
breaking the contact with her silken skin. His lips traced a maddeningly slow
path to the valley between her soft mounts and he opened his eyes as he felt
her slightly trembling hands sliding into his hair to press him closer against
her. He let his tongue flicker out for a second and softly smiled as she called
out his name in a pleading whisper and tightened her hold on his head. Her rosy
crests were searing erected flesh and she moaned again, wanting for him to
soothe the aching with his velvet touch. Never had a guy explored her body like
he was doing, the only guy she had been with had always rushed to the more
active part and had barely given her the pleasure to experience sex as
something beautiful, something to share with your entire heart, with your
entire body and soul.
As he
moved to her unspoken command, he laid his eyes on her face and found her
emerald and amber eyes on him, silently pleading for him to continue for she
was enjoying this. He closed his eyes and lowered himself on her again, taking
her left nipple in his mouth and wrapping it with his tongue. At the contact
with his mouth she arched up to meet him and felt another wave of heat curse
through her body. He gently took suckle and she cried out, feeling one of his
hands tenderly massaging her other breast. Her body was crying out for him, he
could feel it in the way her body trembled underneath his and her breathy gasps
that increased in volume. Still he kept telling himself to go slow, to make it
last, to enjoy it to the fullest.
Softly
capturing her hands in his, he slowly removed them from his hair, released her
swollen nipple and made his way back down her body, this time with his
caressing tongue, eliciting a whimper coming from her part and a soft groan
from himself in response. He dipped his tongue into
her bellybutton and looked up at her, savouring the expression of pure
enjoyment plastered on her face. She opened her eyes and looked down at him,
wondering why he had stopped his heavenly ministrations, and saw him smiling at
her. He wanted to ask her first before he would go further down, he had had
experiences with girls who hadn't liked it to be fingered or licked off in
their most private place.
"Do
you want me to...? Can I go further down?" He softly whispered. He loved
her so much and he wouldn't want to do anything that would make her feel
uneasy. Right now, he just wanted to pleasure her to the best of his abilities
without rushing things. Lenne felt a soft electric shock spreading through her
lower belly and moaned, arching her neck, she knew for herself that she was way
too close to play stubborn now.
"Shuyin...
please...I'm so close..." she breathed, looking back at him with hazy
eyes. She had never been touched there before and she felt a little
embarrassed, but hell, never had she gotten so quickly to and orgasm before and
the tension was becoming barely managable.
Shuyin
nodded and placed himself between her legs and pressed his mouth against her to
have a taste of her personal honey. It only took him one lick to make her
scream her orgasm and as her body shook with each orgasmic pulse, Shuyin
steadily grabbed hold of her hips and made sure she experienced each wave of
pleasure to the fullest while his tongue and lips continued to work on her.
Lenne
whimpered as she reached her climax, her legs reflexively closing themselves
around his head. She took hold of the sheets and held them tightly, almost to
the point of tearing and could only sob as each of his licks caused another
wave of pleasure to rush through her.
"Oh
Shuyin..." she sobbed and arched her back as the final wave overtook her,
her tears rolling sideways from her tightly shut eyes. Collapsing back on the
mattress, Lenne felt him creep up her body again and lying himself next to her.
Eyes still closed, she turned herself on her side to be welcomed in his strong,
yet tender arms and felt his still clothed body press against hers. A soft kiss
was dropped on her forehead and she smiled, opening her eyes to look up at him.
"Thank
you," she whispered and he saw him return the smile, "I've never experienced
sex like this before... but..." and she let a devilish smile play on her
face, "My body craves for more..."
The blonde
raised an eyebrow and gave her a sly smile, "My queen has a healthy
appetite..."
Her face
had become more serious and she bit her lip. He got silent too and they stared
at each other for a moment before drawing closer to each other and making their
lips connect. He still wanted to make things last longer and as he brushed her
hair behind her ear to coax their disengagement, he could feel her one hand
unbutton his shirt. He placed a hand over hers to stop her, but she shook her
head.
"I
need you. Take me... please." Her sweet voice made him swallow hard and he
could feel his own flesh throbbing for attention in his pants. Closing his
eyes, he felt her get up and stand by the bed. He turned himself around and
looked at her naked beauty in admiration. She was perfect. "I want to
undress you... stand up..." she whispered and took a step back.
Shuyin
stood up and watched her approaching him sensually, her body still wearing the
marks of their previous play. He smiled at the thought of having marked her as
his and as her right hand crept under his shirt to feel the hidden mass of
tight muscles lying there, he softly groaned at her touch. Her nails slightly
scraped over his well-defined abdomen and she looked up at him, biting her lips
in anticipation. Half of his buttons were already open, so all she had to do
was to drag the piece of clothing with her arms up his body and take it off. When
his body got revealed to her, she let out a sigh of admiration and let her
hands run over his chest, down to his abdomen and up his chest again. Shuyin
smirked and she looked up, smirking as well. And without warning she approached
her lips to his chest and engulfed one of his nipples, making him moan loudly
in surprise. She chuckled and didn't give him the time to recompose himself as
she slid down his body and opened and unzipped his jeans and watched it fall
around his ankles together with his boxer shorts.
"Lenne..."
he whispered and she looked up at him again, mischief obviously present on her
face. She stood back up quickly and pushed him on the bed. He gasped and didn't
get the chance to protest as her body crept on top of him, her hips straddling his
legs that were still imprisoned in his pants. "Alright."
He gave in and laid himself good willingly on the mattress.
Lenne
chuckled and got off him to release his legs. "I said that I wanted you to
take me, Shuyin. But I'm the one who will be choosing the position. Is that all
right?" she tried to say in a severe tone, but couldn't stop grinning
stupidly.

What is it with girls and girl power these days?!

He jokingly wondered and moved himself to the head of the bed and more to the
centre. "Yes, ma'am."
The
brunette nodded and started to crawl towards him very slowly, making sure he
was looking at her. He couldn't look anywhere else actually, he was starting to
get hypnotised by her breasts that were hanging freely under her. A jolt of
electricity was sent through him and he groaned unwillingly. Lenne saw his
member throb slightly and giggled, now creeping up his body until she was
straddling him again. He sat up and grabbed her by her hips, causing her to
gasp when his erection came in contact with her lower abdomen. He took her by
her hands and put them around his neck to rest there. She looked down at him
and tenderly brushed her lips against his.
"Move
a little closer." He whispered against her lips in a hungry tone. She
implied and bit her lower lip as she felt the tip of his arousal caress her
heated flesh. Her hands around his neck tightened themselves and she pressed
closer when his hands went to rest on her hips again, exerting gentle pressure
downwards, onto his hard shaft. She whimpered softly and pressed her head in
his right shoulder.
"Help
me..." she shakily whispered, feeling that her body wasn't going to let
him enter with ease. She hadn't realised that he was so large. Shuyin's brows
knitted together in worry, her frail body trembling against his. Maybe she
wasn't ready and was all of this too soon....
"Lenne,
if you want me to stop, I'll..." he whispered, turning his head towards
hers and tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear. He moved his hands around
her waist and hugged her, waiting for her to respond.
"No...
I don't want you to stop... I want you with me... I trust you... And besides it
wouldn't be fair towards you." She whispered, panting softly. He retreated
a little and tilted her chin with one finger. She looked up at him, a thin
layer of sweat glimmering on her forehead, a few of her brown locks clinging to
her cheeks and forehead. He pulled her closer and kissed her deeply,
creating a diversion so her senses wouldn't be overtaken by surprise and maybe
pain in just a few seconds. While his tongue kept caressing hers in an erotic
dance, he put his hands on her hips again and felt her entrance getting more
lubricated as he got her more aroused with the kiss.
He slowly
coaxed her to lower herself onto him and felt her wince for a short moment.
"Shhh... it's alright..." he soothingly
whispered against her lips and kept exerting a soft pressure on her hips. She
slid more onto him and occasionally gasped out of pain when his sex would cause
painful stretching within her. As he filled her up completely, she felt like
she couldn't move. He was so deeply in her and filling her up in such way, that
her body needed the time to register this new mix of pain and pleasure. It
wasn't like when she had been deflowered by Tidus, it was a different feeling.
She couldn't put her hand on it, but she was sure that she liked it and that
too was different from her first time.
Unexpectedly,
he let out a soft chuckle and she could feel it rippling through her entire
being, making her moan in response. As she threw her head back, her long hair
reached the covers behind her and she closed her eyes, feeling completed and
one with him. It was an incredible feeling and for a long time both of them
just held their eyes closed and enjoyed the sensation of their joined bodies.
Lenne then
let her head rest back against Shuyin's shoulder and brought her hands on his
on her hips, "Shuyin?"
He
responded with a brief press of his hands on her hips and slowly started to
move her hips to a tranquil pace. She gasped loudly and held on to him by his
neck, his thrusts making her tremble slightly for his large member caused an
unbelievable quantity of friction in her. And the sensation of his lips on her
throat, spilling sweet kisses reinforced the feeling of love.
She was
extremely tight around him and Shuyin had a hard time trying to keep things
slow enough to not rush her.
"Lenne..."
he moaned, feeling her arch up against him, her breasts brushing against his
chest with each silken stroke. He just couldn't keep his eyes from her body and
unconsciously started to push himself in her as he pressed her onto him.
Feeling
the sudden switch of pace, Lenne whimpered and couldn't help but cry out when
his tongue found one of her nipples again. She brought her head back and
watched him suck on her, gasping and whimpering with each thrust and lick. His
moving member began to feel more comfortable inside of her and she started to
move with the pace of his hands on her hips, eliciting a soft moan from Shuyin
who let go of her breast and bit his lip in pleasure.
Panting
slightly and moving her body up and down his long shaft, Lenne brought one hand
on his face and made him look at her as she tried to increase the pace. Their
eyes met and she gasped when she felt the tingling shocks starting to spread
themselves again. Shuyin kept their eye contact and almost lost it right there
when he felt her tense briefly around him. Their faces where inches apart and
the pace kept quickening itself, the moans and gasps getting louder, their
bodies getting sweatier, their passion growing with each passing minute.
"I...
love... you..." she panted, looking him deeply in the eyes, her voice
rising into high pitched gasps as her body grew closer and closer to that point
of no return. He moaned and raised a hand to brush back the strands of her wet
hair that were sticking against her throat, making her look very erotic to him.
He pulled her closer again and kissed her passionately, knowing that he
wouldn't be able to speak out a coherent thought right now.
The kiss
was all she needed to reach her peak again as he kept thrusting himself inside
of her until he climaxed as well. She softly whimpered and collapsed against
him as his warm seed spilled itself inside of her.

_____________________________

A long time later Shuyin was the first to wake up and realising that something
soft and light was resting on top of him. As his memory slowly came back to
him, he started to smile and raised a hand to rearrange her hair a little bit.
His smile broadened itself.

She doesn't realise this, but she is unbelievably sexy when her hair is
clinging to her skin... so erotic...

Her hair was now dried up a little, but it was sure that they both needed a
shower now... He still couldn't believe how willingly she had trusted him. How
blindly she had laid her body in his hands... It was crazy...crazy how two
people could feel such a strong connection between each other after only
knowing one and other for a couple of months... And not just sexual attraction,
but actually love... He looked at her sleeping form on top of him again and
wished they could do this without being looked down upon. Sighing, he turned
his eyes to the ceiling and thought about the dance that was due to happen in
exactly a week.

I'm just hoping that everything will go ok... I've got my outfit already and
Yuna has hers and the others too...Lenne has hers too now and I'm sure that she
will beat everyone at the contest...Yuna doesn't know what's coming at her... Argh, Yuna... I really need to get rid of her... but how...
I love Lenne and I think I would kill the one who dared to hurt her... even if
it was Yuna...

"What are you doing?" Lenne softly whispered and looked at him
curiously. Shuyin had been thinking so deeply that he hadn't realised that she
had woken up already.
"Trying to see if my mind wasn't too blown away from your
performance, graceful one."
She
giggled and rested her head on her folded hands on top of his chest,
"Thank you for being so gentle earlier..."
"I
get like that when I'm around you, I can't help it. I can try and stop if you
want?"
Lenne
giggled harder, "You're so silly!"
"Ok,
do I need to explain myself again? I get like that when I'm around you!"
She
nodded, "That I've noticed a long time ago too...." she whispered
and rested her head to the side. "But I've
also noticed something else..."
"What's
that?" He whispered back, caressing her cheek with a finger.
"That
I'm madly in love with you." she softly said.
He
smiled at her, "Come here." She moved herself up a little and kissed him
on his lips repetitively. He whispered the words he hadn't been able to say to
her earlier and held her close to him, smiling as he felt their hearts beat at
the same rate.

There is no way I'm ever letting go of you, Lenne... if someone has a
problem with that; they'll have to get through me first!
_____________________________
The orange
glow of the setting sun slowly crept over the half covert bodies of the young
lovers, inducing the time for separation.
The couple
had fallen asleep again and the young girl was the first to open her eyes this
time, a smile of pure happiness growing on her face. Seeing the orange glow
they were both bathing in, she realised that is was time for her to leave her
beautiful lover. His heart steadily beat underneath hers and she knew that this
was the way she wished to wake up every morning; his warm body against hers,
their legs entangled, his arms cradling her in a comfortable embrace and her
face buried in the crook of his soft shoulder.
She
breathed in their mixed scents and decided for herself that he smelled like
sandalwood with a slight ocean like fragrance, and remembered him telling her
that he used to play blitz ball back when he was in Zanarkand, which could've
got explained the fresh fragrance that came from his hair. He probably used the
oil blitzers applied on themselves to glide more
efficiently through the waters, and it was also known for its softening effect
on the skin. And his skin was unbelievably soft under her touch, his taut,
tanned chest feeling like a newborn's tooshie.
Dropping a
warm kiss in his throat, she tenderly tried to wake him up. She carefully
propped herself on an elbow and almost regretted her action; his face looking
so peaceful and relaxed under her. Her mind replayed their first encounter with
each other and she softly chuckled as she remembered the first words he had
spoken to her. Since the beginning he had always been the strongest of the two
of them, even though she had tried to play tough and hard to get... but when he
had held her tightly to him for the first time, she had been sold
immediately... and now after months of hurt and longing, he was here, in her
arms... showing her a side of him she knew he hadn't shown to anyone else...
not even to Yuna...He had kept insisting on talking to her and had succeeded in
his attempts, thanks to his strong resolve... if he hadn't done it, she
would've got stubbornly kept on ignoring him, letting her feelings eat her up
inside... He was indeed the strongest of both of them...
He told
her that she had changed him and she believed him, she knew what kind of guy he
had been from the beginning, but she had seen the change in him and the
sincerity of the words he had spoken to her. And the dress and accessories he
had bought her couldn't possibly mean otherwise... Even though she didn't need
the gifts to know what her heart couldn't deny.
The only
thing that made her heart ache was the fact that he still had to be with
Yuna... she choose not to think about the things they did together and found
comfort knowing that his heart wouldn't be there when he was with her. Still,
something kept nagging in her mind and she felt a sting of jealousy in her
heart. She knew it was stupid to feel like this, but she just wished that he
was all hers now and that she didn't have to share him with another.
She ran a
finger the long his jaw line and watched him stir in his sleep.
"Hey
handsome..." she whispered, smiling as his eyes fluttered open, "It's
passed 6 already... the sun is setting..."
His hand
on her hip started to caress her in slow circles and he returned the smile,
watching her with eyes still drunk from sleep, "Hey pretty lady..."
"Hey."
She whispered again and bent over to kiss him softly on his lips, "I have
to go, baby..."
He nodded
sadly and moved closer to her, kissing her in her throat, "Do you want me
to go with you?"
"I'm
going to work now in Bevelle Centre... you don't have to..." She said
slightly shaking her head and reluctantly pushing him off her. "But I
really need to go."
He let go
of her and watched her stand up and making her way to the bathroom, where the
rest of her clothes lay. Scratching his head and yawning, he pushed himself out
of bed and picked up her panties. She turned herself around and smiled as she
saw him holding her underwear in one hand.
"If
you agree to take a shower with me, I'll agree on giving you back your cute
panties with the cute little blue stars." He said,
looking mighty interested in her underwear.
"You're
a hard negotiator, master Shuyin..." She said seductively and opened the
bathroom door, "But I'll agree on taking a shower with you if you promise
me that you'll rub my back and wash my hair."
He dropped
the undies and leapt up, "Sold! But I want rub
more than only your back..."
She
giggled and stepped into the bathroom, closely followed by her own personal,
enthusiastic puppy.
_____________________________
As the
door to the coffee shop opened, a cold rush of wind and snow entered the warm
establishment, making the ones stepping in close it hastily behind them.
Lenne took
off her gloves and bonnet, turned around to look at him with a smile.
"This is where I work as a waitress. Take a seat." She gestured at an
empty table and he walked over to it. "Make yourself comfortable, I'll be
right back."
Shuyin
watched her disappear behind the counter and smiled at her. He then looked
around and let his eyes glide over the trendy interior of the shop. The walls
were painted in a soft purple colour and hung full of mirrors, in all different
shapes and sizes, reflecting every corner of the shop. Some of them were
autographed with a black marker. Behind him, separated from the entrance with
an in dark purple painted wooden fence and in front of the main window stood
three tables like his, airbrushed in a metallic colour. From the ceiling hung little
silver chandelier pieces, who reflected the light of the spots, making the
ceiling look like one lit up surface. At the back of the shop
stood a small podium.
I
wonder if Lenne sometimes performs here...
The people
sitting around him were chatting calmly with each other, drinking their drinks
or listening to the soft pop music that played in the back ground. He also
wondered what Lenne was doing in a place as trendy as this that was obviously
reserved to the richer class of the society. He took the menu that was lying in
front of him and checked the prices they had here. He was honestly surprised to
find them extremely low and looked up as he felt Lenne return to him with a
blond man he recognised immediately.
"Shuyin,
this is my boss Gippal, Gippal, this is Shuyin, my... friend." She said
with a smile on her face. Gippal smiled at him and nodded.
"We
have met before, haven't we?" the blond man said, holding out a hand.
Shuyin nodded and took his hand to shake it. "At that club, a couple of months
ago, right?"
Shuyin
nodded again, feeling kind of uneasy knowing that this man was close to Rikku,
who was close to Yuna..."Right."
Lenne
pushed herself next to him on the bench around the table and rested a hand on
his on the table. He watched her with a warning look on his face and softly retreated his hand from hers. It was dangerous to show their
feelings so publicly and especially in a place like this. And more especially
in front of this man who seemed to be close to Yuna.
Gippal
chuckled and took a free chair, turned it around and sat on it. "You don't
have to fear anything here, Shuyin. Lenne here told me about it and I figure
that your situation is a little complicated right now."
"We
can trust him, Shuyin." She whispered to him, putting her hand on his
again. Shuyin turned his head to look at him and frowned.
"You
own a very fancy coffee shop here... and you don't have a problem with people
of lower social class coming here?"
Gippal
chuckled again and shook his head, "I don't see why I should. And I don't
see why people like Yuna have to threat the ones with lesser financial
resources like this. They are as good as us." He responded and gave a wink
towards Lenne, "I some cases even better."
She smiled
at her boss and then took Shuyin's arm in hers, squeezing softly. He looked
down at her and smiled softly.
"Shuyin." The owner said in a more serious tone. "I now
presume that you are going to break up with Yuna? Have you found out an
appropriate way yet?"
The other
blonde slightly frowned and looked at him, "I'm working on it."
He shook
his head, "I would appreciate it if you did it any time soon."
"I
didn't know that you were so concerned about this... but I need to find the
appropriate way first. Yuna mustn't get to Lenne because of it."
He nodded,
"I know and I understand, but it is just that I have...plans for her and I
wouldn't want that the two of you got involved."
"What
are you planning to do to her, Gippal?" Lenne inquired, looking up at
Shuyin in confusion and then at him.
"That
you'll find out later, if all goes well. But I want to warn you in advance:
break all contact with her now, Shuyin, and do it in public preferably. What
I'm planning for her isn't pretty."
Shuyin
raised his eyebrows slightly, "So I guess you must really hate her then."
"Not
hate, rather disgust and feeling a strong sense for revenge towards her. She
did something to Rikku and me in the past that I rather not talk about."
"Alright..."
Shuyin nodded and thought for a brief second, "I could break up with her
at the gala...but..." and he looked at Lenne.
"Do
it." He interrupted, "Stop wasting time, or you'll regret it."
She bit
her lip and looked at him, "Let's just do it..." she whispered. He
sighed and frowned, seeing the insecurity in her eyes and also the longing of finally
being with him freely. He then closed his eyes and nodded, fixing his resolve.
It
looks like this guy is dead serious about what he is saying... but how the hell
I'm I supposed to break up with the biggest bitch ever without her seeking for
revenge...?Damn, how am I supposed to?
_____________________________
The night
of the gala had arrived sooner than he had thought and he now found himself in
Tidus' limo with the rest of the gang and Yuna around his right arm. Gippal was
sitting in the limo too, across from him and with Rikku around his arm. Paine
had brought her boyfriend Baralai along and Tidus had brought his date, a young
redhead called Wakka. Shuyin recalled having seen this guy before at a blitz
ball match back in Zanarkand. It had ended up on a tie, but he also recalled
that he had had a hard time trying to shake Wakka off to prevent him from
tackling him too badly... he was known for his notorious venom tackle and right
too, that attack was a nasty one. You still felt sick a week after it hit...
Never had
he suspected the captain of the Besaid Aurochs to
have a preference for boys... he gave him a small smirk when the redhead turned
his head towards him.
"Don't
forget that we're still rivals, Wakka. It's not because you're dating a friend
of mine that it will change that." He jokingly said, smirking broadly
towards him.
"I
can wipe your ass any time, ya! You were lucky last
time." He responded, smirking back.
"I am
not going anywhere, so I'll be waiting for ya. Bring
it on any time."
Wakka
chuckled and turned his head back towards Tidus'.
When the
limo entered the dock were the cruise boat was stationed, Shuyin felt his heart
beginning to get anxious. He and Gippal had set up a plan for tonight and he
just hoped that it would all go well.
It was now
10.30 and the Gala had started at ten, but as students with higher status they
had opted for the fashionably late scenario. They all knew that upon entering a
man standing at the entrance door would call out their name(well,
the name of their personage) and the entire room would stop and turn around to
look at the new guests. That way everyone would get the chance to get a glimpse
at everybody's costume and choose out the best looking guy and the best looking
girl to be crowned King and Queen of Winter.
Shuyin had
told Lenne to come and prepare herself at his house
around eight and to wait until 10.30 to leave with Miguel, his driver and to
come to the Gala. He knew that she would arrive around 11 and be practically
the last guest to show up. She had been nervous about all of this, and he had
had to encourage her often by saying that they would be together at the dance
and that no one would know who she was. With the dress came
a matching eye-mask and if she wore her hair up and in a different style than
the usual one, no one would know who she was. And on top of that, he didn't
believe that Yuna expected her to come.
Walking on
the bridge towards the ship, Yuna grabbed Shuyin's hand and looked at him with
an expecting look on her eyes. He smiled back, despite the fact that he felt
more like leaving her on the bridge and rush back home to accompany the girl
that stole his heart back here. She squeezed his hand and put her veil in front
of her face. He put up his golden mask and they both walked in, closely
followed by the rest of the group who had put on their masks as well.
As they
got to the reception, they all gave their names to the receptionist standing
there and then all turned towards the grant stairs that led to the grant ballroom.
"Please
welcome the divine court of Mount Olympus!"
Yuna
smiled brightly when she heard that the valet had got it right and held Shuyin
tighter to her, stepping inside. All eyes were fixed on them and there was no
need to tell that the entire room knew who they were.
"The goddess Aphrodite and her lover, the beautiful Adonis!"
Shuyin
softly groaned in annoyance when the man stressed on the words 'her lover', but
it all went unnoticed by Yuna who was beaming with self-assurance. Some girls
cried out his name, but quickly hushed as Yuna gave them an
deadly glare. That made him almost burst out in laughter, but he held it back,
not wanting to ruin the moment. At least, not this one...
The reason
why he had chosen to not come as a deity was that he hadn't liked the idea
behind the whole dress up: by coming as deities to the Gala, they were in some
way representing the Gods and Goddesses of the school... It really made him
sick to even think about it and he had chosen to come as a mortal; Adonis. They
both walked to the centre of the room, nodding and smiling while they received
a loud applause of all the attendants.
Behind
them, Paine and Baralai entered, followed by Rikku and Gippal.
"The goddesses Athena and Artemis, together with their escorts for
the night, the gods Hades and Ares."
The two
couples got applause and made their way to the centre as well.
"And
last but not least, the gods Apollo and Dionysus!"
Shuyin was
not surprised to hear some girls cry out Tidus' name and softly chuckled to himself. The guy was looking good as Apollo, radiant as the
sun himself and as he smiled to some girls it caused more ecstatic laughter and
giggling.
He
continued to watch him and thought about what Gippal had told him the other day
about him. There was a thing that he just couldn't understand: Why had he
chosen to not warn Yuna? Wasn't she his best friend? Or maybe he cared more for
himself?
"Don't
you regret having brought a guy now instead of a girl? Look at all the girls
that would love to go on a ride with you." Shuyin joked, knowing that
Wakka was listening and expecting for the redhead to respond to his assault. Which he did.
"If a
girl wants to ride, the both of us will give her a special treatment, ya?" He responded, looking at his blonde lover. Tidus
smiled at him.
"I'd
love to go for a ride... maybe later?" the blonde whispered against
Wakka's lips, eliciting a soft growl from the taller guy.
Shuyin
groaned and rolled his eyes, "Ok, you guys, that's enough
information." He chuckled, shaking his head and then quickly followed the
rest of the group.
On his way
to their table, he looked at his watch and noticed that it was 10.40.
Lenne
is on her way here... oh please let everything go well... I can't wait for her
to be here.
As he
looked up, he saw Yuna walking towards him, her now extended, curled hair
softly swaying behind her. Her long, tight, beige dress was almost transparent,
showing every curve of her body. Her breasts looked like they were about to pop
out any minute from their confinement, and a diamond, heart shaped pendant was
nestled in between them.
She kissed
him longingly on his lips and then whispered, "I need to make sure that
everything goes well tonight. I'm sorry, hun. But
I promise that we'll have at least one dance before our coronation."
He nodded
and tried to fake some disappointment in his voice, "Alright... you look
wonderful tonight."
She smiled
and kissed him again, "See you later, baby."
So far so good...
He sat
himself next to Gippal, who gave him a knowing look. He nodded.
"15
minutes to go." Shuyin whispered.
Gippal
smirked and looked at him.
"Yup,
and then it's Showtime."
_____________________________

As the limo stopped before the red carpet that had been rolled out in
front of the bridge leading to the ship, Lenne felt like she was going to be sick...
the only comfort she found was in the fact that Shuyin would be there and that
they would spent the evening together...if all went well.
The brunette sighed and sat back in her seat, overlooking her outfit and
accessories. She knew she looked good, she had checked herself for the
umpteenth time before leaving. But maybe she shouldn't have got spilled so much
glitters on her exposed chest... or maybe she should have got put on some more
blush? And why was her corset almost suffocating her? Had she put on some
lip-gloss? Was her hair okay? Did she bring her ticket? The ticket...oh shit!
The ticket! Oh... she had put it next to her on the seat. She took a deep
breath to calm herself and took her shawl to cover herself up a little before
stepping out.

Miguel opened the door and helped her step out. She thanked the man and
he nodded. "When you and young master Shuyin are done here, you just call
and I'll take you back. I won't be far away. Have a pleasant evening."
Lenne nodded and watched him take his seat back in the car and driving
it from the dock, to disappear in the darkness. She looked around and realised
that it was quite dark in this area of the docks and that the only source of
light came from the boat, where the party was really booming, hearing the loud
music.
Shivering a little in the cold night, she made her way up the bridge and
inside the boat.
"You can do this, girl. In a few moments you'll see Shuyin again
and everything will be fine. Yeah, it will all be just fine; no one will know
it's you." She whispered to herself in encouragement.

Stepping up to the reception desk, she was greeted by a man behind his
forties with big friendly eyes and a soft smile. "Good evening. Your ticket please?"
Lenne gave him the ticket and just when he was about to ask something
else, the grant door of the ball room opened, releasing the heavy dance sounds
that were playing inside. She turned around and gasped.

A girl with long brown curly hair came down the stairs, wearing a tight,
almost transparent beige dress and obviously a push up bra. She couldn't see
who it was but she recognised their math teacher, Sir Auron. It looked like he
had dressed himself up as a warrior or something with a large red cloak and
sunglasses to cover up his malfunctioning eye. They were coming her way and she
quickly turned around. The man at the desk gave her her
ticket back and gestured for her to go over the valet standing next to the
door. She nodded and thanked to man, turning around in the opposite way of the
coming couple so they wouldn't see her face.

Just before she took the stairs, she heard the girl talk and she
immediately recognised her voice.
"I would like to take a room; do you think that's possible? We need
someplace to talk in private."
"Certainly, milady, you've paid for it. Here is the key to room
205. It's the second door on your left when you stop with the elevator on the
second floor."
"Thank you."

Lenne waited a little, and then tuned herself around to look in which
direction the two were going. She couldn't believe it..."Yuna... and
Professor Auron?"
She was cut out of her reverie when the gentle voice of the young valet
hit her ears, indicating that she had reached the top of the stairs.
"Could I please have your name for tonight?"
She nervously smiled and took a deep breath.
_____________________________

The doors to the ballroom opened themselves again, but this time to
welcome another guest to the masquerade. Like with every other previous guest
the valet called for the attention of all the attendants. Immediately the room
went silent and the music was put on hold. All faces turned towards the exit,
those sitting in their seats, standing up to see who
it was that came this late.

Shuyin had been talking to Gippal when he heard the room go quiet; he
looked at his watch and immediately stood up. Gippal joined him and together
they strained themselves to see who it was that came in. Even though the tables
were standing on a small podium, it was still very hard to see over all the
wings and horns and helmets that crowded the dance floor. The blonde felt like
his heart was going to jump out of his chest when he recognised a pair of elfin
wings that where standing at the entrance.

That's her!

"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome from the faraway kingdom of Glymera, Princess
Faye!"

Lenne took hesitantly a step forward and practically cringed at the loud
tapping sound of her heels in the silent room. Everyone was staring at her...
was that good? She continued to walk on towards the centre of the room, her
heart beating anxiously in her chest.

"...No...I can't see who it is... she sure is pretty
though..."
"Wow... she's hot...is she in our school?! I sure have never seen
her!"
"You could at least close your mouth while gaping...!"
"Where did she get that dress... oh my god...
I'm like so jealous!"
"She's very beautiful, yeah..."

Hearing all those whispers made her slightly more confident and she took
a breath out of relief. They didn't know who she was... so far so good. The
music then started to play again and everyone got back to what they had been
doing before her entry. But where was he?

"Hi lovely princess..."

She turned around with a smile and looked at him, thinking that it was
Shuyin. She immediately froze as she stared into light ocean blue eyes, that
she recognised being Tidus'. He was wearing a golden eye mask, but she could
easily tell it was him. "H-hi..."

Shit.

"You are very beautiful, how come we haven't met yet?" he
whispered in her ear as the music started to play again. She felt him running a
hand the long her bare left arm and his lips barely touching her ear. He took a
step closer and she took one back, not wanting to increase any more contact
between them.
"My father, the king doesn't let me out very often. And as said, I
live pretty far away." She said back, completely going in her role as
Princess Faye. "Excuse me."
She was about to take a step around him, when he held her back with one
hand.
"What's the rush, Princess? I just want to get to know you."
He said, slightly pulling her back to him.
"Just let me go, please." She said simply and looked him in
the eyes for a brief moment before trying to take another step away from him.
"Oh come on." He pleaded in a fake voice, still holding her
back.
Lenne sighed and was about to step on his foot so he would let her go
when she felt a soft hand on her shoulder.

"I'm glad you made it, Faye!"

This time she looked up at the man holding her and smiled brightly,
"Shuyin!" she spoke in relief. He smiled down at her and she could see
his eyes sparkle from beneath his blue mask.
"I see you've met a friend of mine already." He continued,
looking at Tidus with a smile on his face. Lenne nodded and looked back at the
other blonde who was standing there now with his arms crossed. "Tidus,
this is my cousin, Faye. She's come all the way from Zanarkand to join us
tonight."

Tidus softly chuckled and shook his head, "I'm sorry, Princess. And
you should be ashamed of yourself, bro!" he pointed towards Shuyin in a
reprimanding manner, "If you had told me that your cousin was this fine,
this all wouldn't have got happened! Once again, I'm truly sorry... Faye."
Shuyin laughed and held Lenne close to him. "You're right; I should
have got done so. I should have got known that you would jump on her the minute
you would see her. I mean, look at her... if she wasn't my cousin..."
"Ok you guys, that's enough." Lenne cut in, seriously starting
to get annoyed by Shuyin's behaviour. Both boys laughed a little and Tidus
ended up leaving the two.

"That was not funny!" she whispered in his chest as he held
her close, "I seriously got unnerved. Why didn't you tell me that you and
Tidus had gotten so close?"
Shuyin laughed again and kissed her on her forehead, "We aren't; he
just thinks we are. I'm sorry if I unnerved you Princess Faye...I'm just so
happy you're here!" He kissed her again and hugged her tightly.
"Umm... Shuyin... the corset is... is kind of tight..." she
gasped in his embrace, eliciting another laugh from the blonde. Lenne couldn't
help but chuckle too; she could feel the effect she had on him reflected in her
own mood... it just felt so good to be near him again. He made all her worries
fade away.
"I had never dreamt of you looking so beautiful... I think I will have to beat the men away from
you." He then whispered, taking a step closer to
her as a slow jam was put on.
"What do you mean beat the men away from me? I'm your cousin,
Shuyin, and I don't need you to protect me from guys, I'm old enough to do
that!" she said in an offended tone, "And besides you still need to
break up with that cheating girlfriend of yours tonight."
Shuyin let go of her and nodded, knowing that she was right and that it
was too risky to show their feelings so openly for now... but wait a minute
what had she said? "What do you mean 'cheating' girlfriend? With
whom?" he then asked, softly smiling. If she was right about all of this,
then it would be perfect for him to break up with her.
Lenne nodded, barely holding back a smile. "I know I'm going to
sound like a gossiping chicken right now, but I don't care. Oh my gosh you're not going to believe this!" she said
waving with her hands in front of her face in total excitement.
"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!" he mimicked
her and slightly jumped around with a high pitched voice, "Tell me
already." He giggled as he saw her bend over from laughter. "If you
go on like that, you're mascara is going to run all over your face." He
then teased.
She stood up fully and gave him an amused glare, "Who do you think
I am to care about that? Yuna?!" she chuckled back. "And besides, I
wear waterproof."
He chuckled too and shook his head, "Ok, now tell me."
"Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but she was wearing a tight beige
dress and extensions tonight, right?" she first inquired, making sure,
seeing him nod, she continued and told him what she had seen earlier.

"I'm sorry." She whispered after telling him what she knew. He
chuckled and looked at her. She put a hand on his shoulder and rubbed in a
comforting manner even though her face was trying hard to not laugh out loud.
He embraced her again and laughed with her. This was great news because even if
she wasn't doing anything with the Professor, he could still fake that he
thought she did and brake up with her anyways and say that he had wished that she
had spent a little more time on him then on anything else.

This is just perfect...

"You sure it's her?"

Wakka and Tidus had been watching Princess Faye and Shuyin talk from their
table and Tidus had advanced the idea of the girl being in reality Lenne. The
blonde nodded and looked at his redheaded friend. "Remember the girl I
spoke to you about back in Kilika? During
the summer?"
The other nodded and kept looking at Faye. "Yea?
That chick you dated at that time."
Tidus nodded again and lay his eyes on her once more, "I know it is
her because she has this little beauty mark behind her left ear."
Wakka groaned, "Man, how many girls don't have those?"
Tidus agreed, "But if I tell you that Lenne almost never makes up
her hair and that her mark is mostly covered by it? How else would I know? And
I also recognised her eyes."
The blitz player went silent while he watched her rub Shuyin's shoulder,
"The two of them are pretty close, eh?"
The blonde nodded, "Of course they are. They have a crush on one
and other."
"Seriously? How do you know?"
"It's almost too obvious. In school they act like they don't know
that the other exists, but I've caught them kissing in an empty classroom this week.
It really figured that Shuyin was hiding something... he was starting to
overact a little."
"Do the others know?"
Tidus chuckled, "Only Paine does... and I expect Gippal to know
too."
"Poor Yuna... she is going to be devastated." Wakka sighed,
"He is really hot, this Shuyin. Reminds me of you."
The blonde laughed, "I sincerely doubt that Yuna will care that he
leaves her, but it is Lenne who will be in trouble. She hates that bitch, and I
honestly don't know why."
"Maybe because you dated her? Or maybe because
she's prettier than her?"
Tidus glared at him, "You're lucky she isn't here now, you would
have got regretted saying that. And she doesn't know that I dated her anyway...
and I would like to keep it that way too..."
"Hey chill, chill... I'm sorry okay?" he whispered softly,
regret in his voice and running a hesitant hand over his lovers right cheek.
Tidus sighed and pressed Wakka's caressing hand closer to his face with his
hand, softly pressing a kiss in the centre of it.
"No... it's okay... I got a little carried
away that's all...I would never want to make you sad, Wakka. I'm sorry."
He whispered his turn, looking away, "It's just that..."
"You care for her deeply... I understand that... and it's
okay."
Tidus looked in his honey brown eyes and smiled. He knew the redhead
wouldn't understand why he had preferred to let Yuna undergo Gippal's punishment without him warning her... he just...
He sighed and let his shoulders hang a little. "It's all her
fault." He whispered and looked darkly towards Lenne. Wakka ran a hand
through his blonde hair and caressed him for a while, just watching him with
loving eyes.
"To hell with her." He then groaned,
making a dismissive hand gesture. "Fuck her."
Tidus pushed him off and mischievously smiled up at him, "Why
not?"
Wakka frowned for a moment, but then started to smile too, understanding
what the blonde was saying... "She still owns us some quality
time..."
The blonde nodded and turned his head towards the brunette who was now
dancing with Shuyin on a slow jam.

"Indeed she does, Wakka. Let's take her on a special ride
tonight..."
