*DISCLAIMER!!: PLEASE DON'T SUE!!!!I own nothing, I don't own FF8 nor do I own square soft, nothing is mine, mine is nothing...I'm just a 16 year old girl who lives in Australia (which I will mention is extremely Anime deprived!!!) writing a story, so please kick back and enjoy the show...or story...* =^_^=

If one were to know Garden well, then they would know about the not so secrete but called secret room in the training center. Silhouetted by the night sky, to figures stood holding hands as they looked over the rail and talked. It had been a long time. This was not an abnormal scene to take place within the secrete room, truth be told, that poor small but unforgotten room had seen and is certain to see some much more R rated scenes. As an outsider I can hear your mind thinking, it's thinking what the hell am I getting at? Well my child, I will tell you to look closer into the room and you will see something your eyes first missed. Two large ceramic pots stand, planted in the fertilizer that the pots held is a large bush type plant, the plants hold no significance, look behind them, child and what do you see?

"OWCH"

"SHHHH"

"But that hurt!"

"Selphie your gonna get us caught!"

"Then why did you push me Zell?"

"I didn't push you!"

Hehehe...careful child, don't wan to get caught now. Yes you see, behind those plants are Zell and Selphie. Why are they there? Why not ask them yourself?

"Zell!"

"What did I do now?"

"Why ask me why were here when it was YOU who organised it?"

"Ahh.... I never said a word."

"Sure...I bet you just forgot."

"I did not!"

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah."

"Then prove it!"

"Fine then I will! Selphie were here 'cos were spyin on Squall!"

"And why are we spyin' on Squall"

"'Cos out of the blue Rinoa rocks up after 5 years and we wanna know what's happenin'"

"Very good Zell! I'm impressed"

"HMPH!"

See child, that wasn't so hard, now was it? Yes it has been five long and hard years for Squall after Rinoa packed up and left. There one moment, gone the next. The effect was harsh on Squall; he seemed to become even more anti-social. And then today, as if nothing had ever happened she returned. Right as the trio was eating dinner. Zell almost dropped his hot- dog in surprise. *Chuckle* Look at him, no child not Zell, Squall look at his thoughts. Can you do that? Of course you can, just concentrate child and all will be revealed...

I cant believe she's back...after all these years.... five long years.... how can she expect me to act as if nothing ever happened? How can she expect to come storming into my life and be accepted with open arms?!

See, I told you you could do it. I told you so *chuckle* Now child think of those thoughts, that poor boy, his thoughts so scattered. He feels so alone, so cold, so confused...

I..I...she's so beautiful, so gracefully...I think I love her...But where has she been? What has she been doing? Who has she been with? Seifer? How can she do this to me...?

Now child, you cannot base your opinion on the thoughts of one person, why not look into Rinoa's thoughts? Squall may not be able to, but my child, you can...

He's so handsome, so innocent...so Squall...I love him, for everything he is...how could I not...he makes me feel so complete...

Also scattered, just as I feared, so young and yet so sure. Keep searching my child there is so much more for you to learn...

How can I tell him about my past? I can't...He'd turn from me...never want to know me again...I don't want to loose him..I can't loose him!

Ahh you noticed child? Tears of an angle are falling, what does this mean my child? What does this mean?
