What can I do?

********

A/N: This is my first song fic so go easy on me, k?

********
Squall and Quistis had just come back from the Balamb train station
after sending Rinoa on her way to meet Zone and Watts. Quistis was
unusually jumpy and nervous. Squall glanced at her.

*She looks as if she's about to burst...*

"You know..I'm gonna miss Rinny while she's gone"

"SQUALL!"

Quistis stopped and pushed Squall away. She slowly began to sob, she couldn't
take it any longer. Zell had guessed but had kept quiet when she confe-
ssed. She took a deep breath and spoke with a wavering voice,

"Squall...I love you, and I always have. When I confessed earlier I thought
it was a sisters love BUT I realise it's not! You are perfect and are being
wasted on some slut who can relate to all her boyfriends. Pick me, Squall
I have brains and can treat u equally!"

Squall was mortified beyond belief. The person he suspected was as close to
him as Rinoa had insulted Rinoa and himself, after all as her knight he
was like a protector of her everyday things. His face twisted in rage,
he unsheathed his gun blade and spoke, venom dripping off his words

"leave me the HELL alone, Quistis..I don't want to speak to you EVER again"

Quistis was blinded with tears. She ran and ran back to garden finally
reaching her dorm. and flopping down on her bed. The picture of Squall and
herself was flung at the door.

'I haven't slept at all in days,
its been so long since we have talked,
and I have been there many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.'

Looking at the picture she realised she was destined for bad luck, a jinx
she could call herself. If only Squall could realise what she could she.
She didn't understand that jealousy was clouding her vision of Rinoa to
be an evil creature when she was in fact happy and caring and now that
Squall was a knight, they had a love that no-one else could dream of. Sighing
she slipped into a dream of her and Squall together.


Chorus
What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?

*If only Squall could see what soo many others can. He is too proud to
admit he is wrong and see me as his ally and friend..one that really
helped him out of his shell.*

*Next Day*

Quistis walked down the garden only to bump into Squall, he looked at her
as though she was something nasty found on the bottom of his perfect
shoes. When he walked off she ran to her room and began to sob quietly.

There's only so much I can take,
and I just gotta let it go.
And who knows I might feel better
If I don't try and I don't hope

*Two days later*

In the classroom, Quistis was looking at the picture of her friends after
the defeat of Ultimecia. They all looked so happy. Then she noticed Rinoa
and Squalls arms wrapped around each other. Her face contorted into an ugly
scowl. Her class looked up at her bewildered.

*NO! NO! NO! NO! OH why me! Why do I fall in love with the wrong person?
EVERY TIME!!! *

For the third time that week she ran to her dorm and cried herself to sleep.


Chorus
What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?


Maybe there's nothing more to say,
And in a funny way I'm calm.
'Cause the power is not mine,
And I've just got to let it fly.

After some time Quistis calmed down and her calm state kicked in.

*Squall is the knight and she is the sorceress. They deserve and belong
to each other.*

She nodded silently to herself and realised her love was in vain. There
was nothing she could do and therefore she would have to carry on with
her unrequited love, but first apologise.

Chorus
What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?

*The next day*

Quistis knocked on Squalls office door, she could hear Rinoa in there
*Oh well at least I'll have a witness...*

"Enter." Came the deep voice she learned to love.

She calmly walked in. Squall opened his mouth to say something but she
held up her hand,

"Squall I'm sorry for what I've said. I thought that you deserved better,
like me for instance, but after my behaviour if I'm worthy then so is dirt.
I understand that you love Rinoa and would have hacked off my head when I
insulted Rinoa but you didn't and I now know you care for me in a way too."

She paused then looked at Rinoa. She bowed her head and walked out.

Rinoa looked confused but Squall called out,

"You're right, Quisty, we all do! And you and sis are my sisters..keep it
that way..You saved me from myself as well as Rinoa.THAT is why i love you."

Quistis cried again...but his time happy tears that Squall had understood
what she herself had understood and that their friendship was as strong
as ever.

No more waiting, no more aching.
No more fighting, no more trying.
and love me, love me.
