" the way she looks at him makes her think the words, candy-eyed. "
ooo ooo
The way Rinoa looks at Squall makes Selphie think.
Selphie is all sunshine and laughter, dancing feathers in the wind and the changing of leaves in the fall. Bright, bubbly, daring to fly though life on clouds without bothering to stop for the rain. Selphie is a SeeD, an assassin, a killer and a murderer-for-hire of Garden. She is a saviour, a heroine, the bringer of the Sorceress' death, a friend and a daughter.
But Selphie is still a girl, and every girl dreams of love.
The way Rinoa looks at Squall makes Selphie ache. Rinoa, candy-eyed gazes and soft smiles, cast in the direction of Garden's Commander, her eyes glazed over but her face bright whenever he comes up in conversation. Rinoa is so in love, the princess in her own fairytale, the Sorceress and her most precious Knight.
Selphie wants someone to love her like this.
Selphie dances through life. She is careless, caring and comes off as oblivious. She's never had time for love, never thought she'd have to make time for it, and never thought she'd have to search for it.
But Ultimecia is dead, the world is saved, her best friend found her love and no matter how many smiles, laughter and twirls she does,
Selphie's heart still hurts.
