Chapter 1: Heartbroken trouble and Headmaster's assistant
Squall Leonhart was sitting in his dorm room miserable from last week. Last week, Riona told Squall that she doesn't love him anymore. Since, then he never left his dorm. Now, it was late and he wanted to get something from Riona's room, but didn't feel like talking to her. So, Squall got up and started walking to Riona's room. I need a card! Squall thought as he looked to his right and found a card on the ground. Just he stuck the card into the door Headmaster Cid was standing right next to him.
" Squall Leonhart what are you doing?" asked Headmaster Cid.
" Nothing, just getting my jacket." Said Squall like it was nothing.
" Come with me son." Said Cid putting his hand on Squall's neck.
Then, they made their way to Headmaster Cid's office. When they got to his office Cid gestured Squall to sit.
"Wait here." Said Cid.
Xu was sitting at a desk typing a letter. Every now and then she glanced at him.
"Hey…. So what are you in here for so late?" Xu said still typing.
"…" At first Squall didn't feel like saying anything, but his answer came out, "I was picking a lock."
"Oh." She answer getting up and sitting at a seat next to him. "Whose lock? But, you don't have to tell me."
"Riona's lock."
"Why? I thought you two were together?"
"We broke up a week ago." Now Squall was actually feeling comfortable talking to her. "What about you, do you have a boyfriend?"
"No, people think I'm a teacher's pet."
After, a half an hour of questioning and answer they were actually getting into the answers they received.
"Do sometimes do you feel like you have no to trust except yourself?" said Xu standing on her knees in the chair.
"Exactly! All the time!" said Squall, understanding everything she was talking about.
All of a sudden a burst of silence fell upon the two. But, it didn't feel awkward to none of them. They stood there eye to eye holding their breaths. Then, they both had the same objective. So, they started moving closer about to kiss when Headmaster Cid interrupted.
" Squall, I'm ready." Said Cid.
Then, both of their heads turn in the opposite directions. Xu brushed her skirt and sat down at her desk again. Squall followed Cid into his office.
"Sit." Said Cid pulling him a chair out. " Okay, you were caught picking a lock." He said sitting down and getting a small book out." You broke rule 141 of the rules and regulations…"
Squall sat there paying no attention to a word Cid was said. All he was thinking about was Xu. He thought about the way Xu wears her hair. The way she brushes off her skirt. The way she looks when you gaze deeply into her eyes. Xu was the same; she left the office skipping thinking about Squall. She thought of how he can say one word and she gets what he means right off the back. And how his hair falls in front of his eyes. The way he would let you look into his eyes and see an ocean full of emotions. What was weird was that they both thought the eyes told the most about each other.
" Squall, your punishment is to clean the cafeteria." Said Headmaster Cid.
" Fine, can I go now?" asked Squall ready to go to his room.
" Go, ahead I'll see you at 7."
Squalls walks to his dorm with a funny feeling in his stomach that he had never felt. Every time he thinks of 'Xu' his back would get a tingling sensation going up and down his spine. When he got to his room and laid down, the first thing that popped in his mind was 'Xu.'
