*Tidus is walking towards the huge red Celsius, looking deep in thought*
I could just give it to her and not say anything...? Nah, she might think I'm being rude and not read it...I could- no, no... *sighs* Screw this...I'll just leave it in her room, or something. I can't give it to her face...
*heads inside, attempting to be sneaky but in face exaggerated spy-ninja-type moves are exceedingly noticable*
*reaches Rikku's door* OK. Um. *listens for noise*
*hears none* *pushes door open gently, goes in and leaves a sealed envelope marked 'Rikku' on the bed*
[Dear Ri To R Dear Hey, Rikku.
I’m not all that good with this stuff really. I just, well...I was thinking. About the journey, at first (Do they have a name for it now? Like, ‘The Last Pilgrimage’ or something like that now?), and it got me thinking about other stuff.
It started with Yuna. I mean, my thoughts did. I realised that when I was...dead, or undreamt or whatever I was...I’d had all this time to really think about, y’know, relationships. It didn’t feel like two years, it didn’t really feel like time at all, it just felt like...a while, you know? But I figured it all out, I think. Most of it.
I like Yuna, but...something tells me that we wouldn’t have worked out. I mean, she’s nice, and hot pretty, but she’s so innocent and quiet and shy...to be really honest? I’m a sucker for the whole ‘damsel in distress’ thing. I get all hero-y. But now it’s all over...I mean, I like her, but I don’t love not in that way.
Then I started thinking about you, Rikku. About how you worked so hard with me to find a way to beat Sin. About how you were the ray of light and cheerfulness when the group was low. About how you used to make me laugh. ...About how you clung to my leg on the Thunder Plains. About how you hugged me on the snowmobile. About how seeing you smile made me want to smile back, and always keep you smiling. About how when you said “maybe someday”, my stomach flipped. Did you forget I was learning Al Bhed? Or...did you want me to understand you? I think we had...a spark, you know?
I always hated to see you upset. It always made me want to see you happy again straight away, because someone like you shouldn’t ever have to be sad.
So, I’m sorry. I’m sorry I was gone so long. I’m sorry I made you cry. Not just because I hate to think of you upset, but because...I think...I missed my chance.
But see, that’s why I’m writing. I don’t know if I could do this face to face, any of this. I lov I really like you, Rikku, and you deserve to be happy. I...I don’t want to stop you from being in a relationship that...I mean, if this...Demyx...is good to you, if he treats you like you deserve, then...then I’m alright, I guess. You should stay with him.
No matter what, I’ll always, always be your friend. Remember, if he hurts you I’ll break him I’ll always be here for you.
Love, Tidus
