I do not own Final Fantasy 8 and neither it's characters and/or monsters. Squaresoft does. I only own the characters that appears in this fanfic who dosen't appear in the original game. By the way, english is my second language. So please bear with me and review fairly. (This means not only the grammar flaws. I know I am far from perfect but I try my best to write in a different language than my native one.) So please, try to give a fair ammount of the good critics as well of the bad ones. It would be more motivating for me to hear some critics about my initial storyline as it unfolds... Thank you
-Prologue-
Many years has passed ever since the ending of the story. Time changed but however, people didn't.
Many things had took place after 3 years. Zell, since Ultimecia's defeat and a couple of weeks afterwards, dated the pig-tailed girl from the library. Not many details are known about it. They kept their relationship pretty intimate and private. However, Irvine and Selphie's relationship tended to be very public and going downhill since a couple of months ago. Irvine still is Irvine. He is still the ladies man and also a compulsive charmer. Even though he is still in a relationship with Selphie, he compensated his taste for ladies with some naughty magazines he bought in secret every now and then.
Eventually, since every little secret is often discovered sooner or later, Selphie caught Irvine in the act with a magazine. It is pretty pointless to specify what events occured from this except for arguments every neighbor in the dormatory could hear and also some loud glass or objects crashing sounds on the wall or floor. Selphie, even though joyfull most of the time, had a very bad temper about this. Who could blame her? In her whole feminity, she felt violated and undesired by those incidents. She tought that Irvine wanted to seek elsewhere or wanted to diversify his ladies every now and then. She felt she wasn't enough for him even though they tended to make love up to 2 or even 3 times a day. Who could blame her afterwards when she tried her best to make her ladies man happy? As for Squall, his relationship with Rinoa went over the edge almost a year and a half ago. He learnt that Seifer came back into the picture with Rinoa. He had to learn it through Zell and not Rinoa herself or even Seifer. Apparently, Seifer played ''the memories and deep love card'' with Rinoa and even though she was with Squall, slowly but surely, their relationship ended. Squall became nervous and jealous about Rinoa seeing Seifer once in a while. He never really talked about it except for Rinoa and probably Zell after the breakup. After many arguments, Rinoa felt that Squall became possesive but he wasn't at all. He was only scared deeply about his rival and Rinoa's ex-lover coming back as a so-called friend. Eventually, the plot was soon to be discovered. Rinoa gave Zell a letter informing Squall she was leaving him and the garden to move back with Seifer at Deling City. Squall eventually got into a depression. The only person he allowed inside his heart destroyed his very foundations before leaving. Quistis tried as best as she could to help Squall out of this. She wiped a lot of rejection from him and heart-breaking accusations as well as he said that '' Quistis only wanted to be a crutch for him so that she could find a purpose or utility for herself '' As the strong women that she were, she never got a tear out in front of him or anyone else. However, she had found the bad habit to often drown her sorrow in red wine. She would often get on the balcomy of her dormitory room at night wine a bottle full of wine and a large glass to just star at the sea and the moon that offered themselves as the only spectacle taht she could refuge herself into. She woudn't often try to silence her cries with her hand blocking her mouth. Even though, small sounds came out as she closed her eyes and let her tears flow so gracefully but very miserably. She was tortured and tormented about the fact she always deeply loved Squall. She truly did wanted to say it before at the orphanage when she alone with him for a brief moment. She never did because Rinoa was carved into his mind. This can only proove us that fairy tales dosen't exist or last very long.
A wednesday night, at his dorm room. Squall was on his computer. Even though he never really spent anytime on any chat rooms or whatever web sites that offer a person to talk to, he prefer to talk to himself and write his mind on a computer program only to destroy it afterwards. He used to listen to music too. He used to find refuge in his own little bubble world he used to live in so much before. He then opened his mailbox to check for any e-mails. Obiviously, Quistis mailed him. In short, she said that she understanded his resistence and she would always be there for him because she cares. This is what it said. Squall shut down the computer and the room who used to be lit from the computer screen got pitch black. Squall was used to live in darkness. He liked it alot actually. Even though he found that to be a bit of a teenager's way of thinking, he realy like to belong in silence and emptyness. He opened his balcony window and stood on it for a moment. His body was filled with the purest air sea could ofter him. The only witnesses of this moment were the stars who he knew that they would never tell a thing about this. They were the keepers of so many secrets from moments from before up to now. He knew it would never bother him to live alone this moment. He got his naked hands on the railing of the balcony enjoying a moment of silence. That is until a glass shatering sound is hear afar followed by the word : «Shit!».declared by a man's voice. Squall sighed. « And now, here we go again...» he thought. He then heard a screaming feminine voice say :
« This is what you deserve you stupid pervert! How do you think I can live with this? Huh? I can't! I have to fear for...» The voice interupted herself. It said a few seconds after :« I don't care! How would you like if I would acted like a seductress and rubbed my ass against other men's parts huh?»
The voice stopped again
«Well that's the same for me... Not get out! Now! I don't want to see you ever! You heard me! Never again! Now, get the fuck out of my house!»
. «Not again...» Squall thought. He then got a white shirt on and opened his dormroom door.Irvine camed with a pillow and a blanket on his shoulder. «You are forty seconds late» Squall said «Ah! Cut it out!» Irvine said. He seemed in a dark mood but used to the situaiton.
«Can I borrow some bandages? I broke a glass on my hand by accident...» Irvine asked. «Whatever...» Squall said walking toward the bathroom as if it were a burden to do. «Geez, thanks for the hospitality» Irvine said. «If you want to, there is some nice parc benches outside of the garden...» Squall replied in a very cold way. «No, I'll be fine here» Irvine said crashing on the couch of Squall's living room. Not an additionnel word was said taht night. Squall went to his bedroom and laided on his bed. From a distance, Quistis's cries were heard. « Maybe I went too hard on her. I think I must apologize. At least to make up to what I said to her.» On that thought, Squall fell asleep.
