Don't fail me
Day of the Seed field exam
As we left Garden today, I couldn't help but notice the unusual spark you had in your eyes. The same spark you had years ago when you and I first took the Seed exam. You were arrogant and cocky back then just like you are today. Too cocky for your own good I must say. I still remember the day when the new Seeds were acknowledged. My name was announced. I eagerly waited to hear them call your name.. They never did.
Looking at you today as your instructor, I dearly hope that today would be the day when you finally triumph and pass the field exam. I care for you like an instructor should, maybe even more. I do not wish to see the same look in your eyes when you had failed the previous Seed exams.
I distinctly remember the conversation we had today morning before we left Garden.
"You're the Squad leader. Good luck to you."
"Instructor, I hate it when people wish me luck. Save those words for a bad student who needs them, eh?"
"Okay then. Good luck, Seifer."
A pang of regret shot through me as I said the last line, I saw a flicker of hurt passed through your eyes, which was immediately replaced by a look of anger. You weren't a bad student. You just needed discipline. I don't think you know this but you were always my favorite student.
As I came back into reality from my thoughts, I realized the field exam was about to start, as you stepped off the boat with the others, I silently whispered to you..
"Don't fail me Seifer, don't fail."
Of course, you didn't hear me.
Day when Seeds were announced
They didn't call your name. Squall, Zell and Selphie had passed. When you entered the hallways of where we were all standing, I thought you would be furious or angry. Instead, you and your posse applauded them. Showing a sign of respect that I never knew you had in you. It was in that moment that I saw the look in your eyes. They are filled with sorrow, pain, and regret. You knew that you had failed once again.
Day after Seed party
Squall, Selphie and Zell were assigned on their first mission today. They are to go to the city of Timber and to assist a resistance fraction known as the Timber Owls. You had also wanted to go, because your ex-girlfriend was there. I think her name was Rinoa? You wanted to help her out. I can understand that. I am currently supervising you in detention. Garden decided to punish you for not following orders during the exam.
"This is just great, I'm stuck in detention with you when instead I could be in Timber right now, helping Rinoa."
"Well, for your information Seifer, I'm not the one that failed my Seed exam. You can't even follow your instructions on what to do."
"Looks like I'm not the only one who has failed in something my dear instructor. I recall a certain blond instructor that recently lost her license. Does that sound familiar to you?"
Argh! How did you know about that? It was true though, Garden had recently taken my beloved instructor's license away from me because I lacked leadership qualities. It made me so sad.
"...."
"That's what I thought. I bet you lost your license cuz you were too distracted watching the curves on Puberty boy's face than to teach the class."
You smirked thinking that you had won the battle.
"I probably lost my instructor's license because of you! I tried teaching you discipline but you would never listen!"
"Well, I'm sorry but your lectures were way too boring. Shit, I've fallen asleep countless number of times."
I glared at you, sending you icicles through my eyes. I knew that this argument could go on for hours so I did the unthinkable.
"Let's go to Timber."
"What?"
"You heard me, let's go to Timber. Both you and I know that we don't want to stay here and argue forever. Since you want to help your precious Rinoa and I want to help the others, lets go."
"Haha my dear instructor, that's the best idea you've ever come up with from all the years I've known you."
You thought that I made my decision because of the others, but I secretly wanted to take you there so you could help Rinoa. I knew she meant a lot to you. Every time someone said her name, your features would grow soft and your eyes would show compassion and maybe love? I always wondered, would you ever show the same feelings towards me?
We left immediately, heading for Balamb to take the fastest train ride to Timber. Little did I know, this decision would change both our lives forever.
How was that? Can't be too bad right? Should I continue this or no? Well, you know the routine everyone! R&R
