I walked down the hall of Balamb GARDEN. I am the head master now... Do I want that position...?
"Hey, Squall!" It was Rinoa, I turned, and seen her smiling. She was the only person who could make me smile.
"Rinoa..."
"What's the matter, Squall? You look down..."
"I was just thinking about my new position..."
"You don't want it, do you?"
"I do... I just..."
"I think we should go out... lets go to Deling." I guess I should explain what happened after the celebration at Balamb... I became headmaster. Rinoa moved into the dorms, and was training to be a SeeD, life was ever-boring without Rinoa.
"If you want to, Rinny." I smiled. Rinoa always managed to make me smile.
"See, Squall! You look so much cuter when you smile."
"Yeah, yeah." We walked out to the Parking Lot, and took out a car. I drove us to Deling. We decided to eat to at a resturant that served all sorts of food. Rinoa ordered a salad and Esthar Stew, I ordered broiled Chocobo. Its sort of funny, how Rinoa is always yelling at me for eating Chocobos, but what can I say? They taste good.
"Hey, Squall, what do you want to do with your future?"
"Well, it seems I'm headmaster, so there isn't much ahead of me..."
"But Squall, you are only eighteen."
"And already a headmaster."
"Yeah, but... You can do stuff other than be a headmaster!" Maybe she had a point...
"Like what...?" Rinoa didn't answer that, so I took the golden opportunity to shove a forkful of chocobo into my mouth. "Rinny, I think this is it... you know, I'm a headmaster, what else can I ask for?"
"You don't want anything else?" I paused.
"... Well, I do..."
"Then go out and find it!"
"I don't think I can..."
"Why?"
"Cause..." Well, I honestly couldn't answer this one, Rinoa always got me like this, to a point where I share my thoughts, but could not go any further. The only other thing I wanted was Rinoa, but... Uh, next time.
"Well?!" Rinny was so persistant, as always.
"Hey. I'll tell you later." At this time, I looked down at my plate and seen that half of my serving of chocobo was gone. I looked up at Rinoa.
"What?"
"My...uh, chocobo...?"
"You are right it is very good!" I laughed. I actually laughed. Heh, it had been a while since I had laughed last. It felt good.
"Oh, Squall..." I love it so much when she says my name...
"...Heh heh. Rinoa, see, the only other thing that I want to make sure is in my future is you..." I sorta blurted that out. I meant it, with all of my... heart. But... Yeah.
"...And I have all intentions of being a part of your future, Squall!" I had to have been the happiest I'd ever been when she said that.
When we finished our food, we walked through Deling, and Rinoa convinced me to come and help her pick out a dress to buy.
"Squall, you see, I want to buy a dress."
"What for?"
"I dunno, just to have!"
"Okay, go ahead."
"Will you come with me?"
"Why...?"
"Cuz, I want your opinion!"
"Okay..."
To be perfectly honest with you, I had never gone *shopping* with a women before... I mean, sure, Zell and I go out to buy clothes every once and a while, but... a girl? Oh, Zell took Xu's place at GARDEN, and plans to be there for a long, long time. I named him assistant headmaster-only because I didn't like to see him beg.
Anyway, before I knew it, I was being dragged into a department store. They had alot of fancy dresses... This would be very boring.
Rinoa found a white dress, and tried it on, it looked beautiful on her, so she bought it.
"Now, Squall, we are going shopping for you now." She smiled.
"What? For..who?"
"For you!"
"Nah uhn! No way!"
"Yeah! Lets go." She dragged me into "Kinneas'," a very high class Men's store. Irvine, who became official sharpshooter intstructor at Balamb GARDEN, says that he owns it. He actually thinks we'd believe him... What an idiot.
"Come ON, Squall! Why are you going so slow...?" She tugged at my arm.
"Well, maybe, if I go slow enough, it will be closing time before I get there..."
"Squall...! Heheh." By 10:00pm she had found me a white sweater and a black pair of pants. What a girl. I had just gone shopping with Rinoa. What an accheivement!
When I got home, I went into my room. I sorta like it. Its quiet. And huge. Since I'm a headmaster, I get this nice bedroom... I guess I still like being alone. I plopped down on my bed and thought. Will I ever marry Rinoa? How long will I stay headmaster? I'm only eighteen...maybe, just maybe, I have a big life ahead.
