Horrors Live On Chapter 1- Unspoken Memories And Words By: Cherry Blossoms854

I think I might be able to speak the words that I wanted to escape from your mouth. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It had been 4 months since Quistis was kidnapped. Even with such a long time spand the memories were as fresh as spring roses on a sunny afternoon. The feel of the chains on her wrists. The sleepless nights because of fear he might come in at night and inject poison in her. The look on Seifer's and Philip's face when they had that fierce duel. Quistis could have gone on and on about every detail. Honestly she tried to forget but her past haunted her and only made everything on those fearful weeks seem worse. Quistis Trepe sighed as she tried sleeping but she knew it would never come. She had so many sleepless nights and her friends didn't even notice her pain. Everyone seemed to have abandoned her when the rumor about Quistis being created and her magical powers.

(I only have a week left until this is over with. I'll be free from everyone's stares and thoughts of me.)

Quistis had resigned for good this time and was given a week to pack and be out. She figured that she could travel the world and then later live peacefully in Winhill or maybe Fisherman's Horizon. As long as she was out. The only thing that was keeping her here before was Seifer. She never admitted she loved him in the time she stayed here and she just figured that he didn't even care for her in that special way she wanted it to be. He never confessed any secrets of hidden desire toward her, nor did he signal anything off to her to make her believe it. No sneaking glances at her or sparks of happiness in his eyes when their eyes locked. She had no reason to be here anymore and now she was leaving. Gone forever from her only home she ever knew. Quistis's eyes fluttered shut as she dreamt about Seifer. Finally she had one night with sleep.



Seifer looked at the redheaded whore next to him and then toward the window. Quisits was leaving in a week and he never truly confessed to loving her. He feared the rejection and paying some bimbos to have sex was the only way to release the thought of her. Well until the fun was done.

Seifer slowly slipped his arms off the girl named Emily and moved off the bed. He slipped on his clothes and left the young girl sleeping in the hotel bed. Seifer glanced at the red numbers on the clock that read 10:57 PM. Seifer had 2 hours until the gates the Garden closed. He trudged on the cement path to get home. Finally Garden came into sight. He walked through the front gates and toward the dorm area. Seifer brought out his ID card and slipped it in the slot. The door opened with a soft creak. He stepped into his silent room. Shivers crept up his back at the silence as he walked to his bed to lay down for the rest of the night. Seifer sat on the edge of his bed and sat in thought for awhile.

(I can't believe Quistis is leaving. The one person I could actually even dare to love is going to be gone forever and to never return. Unless I do something, she'll never set foot in her only home she knew since she was a child. The only way I can know what Quistis feels is to talk to her, but what if I get rejected? What if she suddenly decides that she hates me even more because she's loved by the infamous lapdog? What can I do then? Watch the love of my life walk away? I have to talk to her. It's the only way these thoughts of what if will get out of my head. The only way I can know the truth. The only way I can know if she truly is the one.)

Seifer slowly stood up from his cold bed and left once again to find his angel he treasured so. He slowly snuck into the Instructor's side of the hallway and knocked on Quistis's door.

(She's got to open before I get caught!)

Seifer waited patiently while he heard Quistis rustling from inside. When she finally opened her door, her hair was sticking out everywhere and her beautiful eyes were in slits. When she saw the young man at her door, her eyes widened in surprise.

"Instructor, am I going to be invited in or are you going to let me caught out here?" Quistis moved aside and let the younger SeeD in. Seifer looked at his surroundings and took a seat in her chair at her desk. Quistis sat at the edge of her bed, fiddling with her hands.

(Seifer is here. I can't believe it! Quistis don't get all worked up if you still don't know the reason yet!)

"Quistis, could you walk with me down to the Training Centre?" Seifer, who was now looking everywhere but Quistis's face, was sitting in the chair nervously.

"Ummmm...okay Seifer. Just wait about 5 minutes." Quistis walked past him and went into the bathroom. She grabbed her clothes for today and threw them on. She glanced at herself in the mirror and nodded approvingly. She was wearing a dark pair of blue jeans and a white T-shirt that said Love. When Quistis walked out she found Seifer standing by the door, tapping his foot impatiently. She smiled politely at him and opened the door.

(What the hell could this trip be for?)
