. . .WHAT IF. . .
By: siMpLiCiT1



I ran into a friend of yours the other day...
and I asked her how you've been,
She said 'my girl is fine, just bought a house, got a job.
Real good man.'


Quistis paused, as she gaped up at the man that stood before her. She let out a breath, as her ice blue eyes turned her gaze to aside. There was a long pause, as Seifer simply stood there, waiting for an answer. Even if it were quick, at least he would have known by then. How could a woman like herself, even be able to make him wait that long? The last thing Seifer ever carried was patience. It definitely wasn't part of him at all. Quistis' arm slowly crossed her chest, as she soon grew exasperated. Her eyes slowly turned to the man's, as the words dared not to come out.


I told her I was glad for you; that's wonderful
But does she ever ask 'bout me?
She said 'she's happy with her life right now
Let her go, let her be. . .


Irvine slowly turned his head away, as he noticed Selphie solemnly walking in, not at all her usual upbeat self. His blue eyes slowly trailed away, as he slouched back in the chair, letting even the most littlest things get to him. He had never really been that confused in his life, or at least most of it. On regular occasions, he would have never let a girl at the least get to him.
"Heeey, Irvine!" Selphie squealed, resuming her posture, as she took a seat in the chair beside him. Irvine slowly flashed her his trademark smile, as his hands hovered over the other, struggling to stay still. "What's wrong?" Selphie's voice sounded out, as his dark eyes met the young woman's.
"Nothin'," he replied, reluctantly, forming a false smile.
"Cheer up, eh?" the woman exclaimed, using his own words against him.


And I told myself I would, but something in my heart just would not let you go,
I just wanna know. . .


"So...," Rinoa uttered, her eyes turned to Quistis, as a smile reluctantly played across her thin lips. "Have you talked to him?" The young blonde woman slowly gazed up, as she began to fiddle around with her gloves.
"No...," Quistis uttered, softly, deep in thought, as she felt the many emotions run through her. But nothing at all surpassed the pain and confusion she felt. If only he were there...then maybe everything else wouldn't have been so bad as it were at that very same moment. She honestly didn't know where to head off to this time around. It was as though she was stuck in decision between a fork in the road. Something that could really change her life...


What if we were wrong about each other?
What if you were really made for me?
What if we was 'sposed to be together?
Would that not mean anything?
What if that was `sposed to be my house that you go home to every day?
How can you be sure that things are better?
If you can't be sure your heart is still here with me
Still wanting me


"So...ya know, anything new, Seifer?" Raijinn uttered, rubbing the back of his neck, waiting for pretty much a curt reply. Seifer turned to the man, as he solemnly kept on walking, without a least bit of courtesy. He wasn't in the mood for questions and quick answers. The thing he hasn't been doing for that past hour.
"RAGE," Fujinn sounded, as she glared at Raijinn, who was now lost in thought.


Your friend asked me if there was someone special in my life that I was seeing
I told her there was no one in particular
There's just I, myself, and me
I told her that I dream of you quite often
She just cut her eyes at me
She said you got a home, you're very happy
So just stop your meddling


The blonde woman hesitated, as her eyes turned to the man that stood beside her. Seifer cocked his head to one side, as his eyes glanced over to her, then turned back to the broad sky. His arms solemnly crossed his chest, as he stood in the quietness that surrounded them.
"Do you honestly think I'd do that?" his voice uttered, interrupting the silence.
Quistis paused, glancing downward, "I don't know...but knowing you, you don't give in that easily." The sudden statement caused a smile to his lips, as his eyes fixed upward.


I told her that I won't
I said things were cool, but I guess I was wrong,
I still can't move on.


"He's not gonna be the only man you're ever goin' to love," Irvine uttered, a smile across his lips, as the statement caused Quistis' sudden attention. Her blue eyes studied his, as she nervously glanced away.
"What are you talking about?" the young woman uttered, a bit lost in thought and surprise to what the man had just said.
Irvine smiled, as he slowly sat up on the grass, pulling the small puppy into his lap, "You know it better than I do." Quistis smiled, as it slowly faded, along with that sudden urge to just tell him everything. Everything she had ever felt so far. Those same lost feelings that she didn't want stepped on. But just him being there, was hard enough.


Hugs and the kisses, all the love we make
What the hell do you expect me to say?
What if it's really 'sposed to be this way?


"I won't forget that..."
"Oh, you've got that choice, Lady. And I reckon it be a good one..."


What if you're really sposed to be with me?


NOTE: umm you must have really been confused! Well, it's just some important scenes you could say, from my actual story. Which is to start in the next coming chapter. I guess you could say this was kinda like another one of my previews/summary. Yeah, but did you get where I was getting at? ^-^ REVIEW PWEEZE? O yeah-that song-babyface-what if.
