I can't regret time spent with you

This story has been written a long time
ago, when the fanfiction world still tolerated a
liberty of expression without having to see your work deleted without warning.
Only a few havens of that liberty can host this story in its whole now and so
today I repost it here and hope you will enjoy it as much as my first readers
did so long ago.

Enjoy it!

-Blackdiamond Princess!

She looked away from the young couple,
feeling her heart sink into her shoes... It was a rainy November evening and
although it was warm inside the house she still felt cold. She shifted a little
bit to get into a comfortable position on the couch and felt strong arms embrace
her. She smiled up at him and sank into his embrace, feeling reassured.

They had invited her to have a nice
dinner with them. She had accepted the offer, to please her best friend, but
she had silently refused to go all by herself. She wouldn't let them see how
lonely she felt and... was...

"Hi!! Happy you could make it!
Please come in!"

"Hi, thanks for inviting me,
Rikku." She smiled at the younger girl and turned around to introduce her
date. "I brought someone with me, hope you don't mind?"

Rikku blinked and stared at the tall
blue-haired man with the stunning grey eyes. He smiled at her and introduced
himself.

"Hi, I'm lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic";mso-bidi-font-family:

"I know who you are..." Rikku
interrupted him, gasping. "You go to the same university as us
right?"

scratched the back of his head. "Yes... I'm..."

no! Let me guess, let me guess..."

The two guests just laughed and waited
patiently.

"You're President Jyscal's
son!" the little blonde blurted out, her eyes round as saucers.

"How did you pull that one out,
Yuna?" She whispered behind her hand towards the giggling brunette.

Yuna just smiled at Seymour, who
squeezed her hand, and entered the house.

"Hey!" The blond haired blitz
ball player jumped out of his seat and walked towards the incoming couple.
"I'm glad you made it Yuna."

He looked at her, and in that one
moment, she felt it all come back. Apparently, her body and soul still hadn't
forgotten him. She took a deep breath to calm her raging heart and was relieved
when she felt a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

and he smiled back, his eyes softening. She looked away and he shifted his gaze
upon her date.

"You brought someone with
you...?" he asked, frowning slightly, faintly remembering having seen that
face before.

"Yeah, don't you recognize him, class=SpellE>Ty?!" Rikku had closed the door and walked towards
them, "He's president Jyscal's son..."

wanted to forget him...

Yuna's heartbeat went up again and she
knew that this was going to be a difficult evening...
