It was an early morning in the orphanage. All the children were
sleeping except two. One was pretending to sleep, while the other was
reading.
"The l..li...tt..le dog j...j...ju..ju."
"The little dog jumped over the fence. Gosh, you can't read and your six," laughed the boy from his bed.
"Shut up Seifer," Quistis yelled.
A few kids woke up from her sudden outburst, but went back to sleep.
Seifer jumped into Quistis's bed. (Which was right next to his.)He sat next to her.
"Go ahead," he said.
"No, your going to make fun of me," she said trying to push Seifer out of her bed.
"I won't. I promise," he said holding up his hand.
"Ok," she sat closer to him and opened up the book putting it inbetween them so they both saw.
"The li..tt..le dog ..ju...ju."
"jumped," he corrected.
"Jumped.o...ver...over the fence. It w.....'as'."
"Was," he corrected again.
"Was playing in ...the...mud." She turned the page.
The dog h....had a ...b...a...t.h," she finished closing the book.
"You did it," he smiled at her.
Thanks," she smiled back.
In the doorway Matron smiled to herself.
Later on in the morning all the children were eating there breakfast. Actually Quistis was asleep in her plate.
"Wake up Quistis," Selphie nudged her. Selphie was sitting next to her. Quistis woke up groggly and looked at her, then continued to eat her food.
Seifer looked at Matron then to Quistis with a sad look in his eyes. He thought that she shouldn't be up that early in the moring reading when she needs her sleep.
Matron noticed as well.
Later on the children went outside to play. Zell was with Selphie and Irvine, as they were playing in the sand. Squall was sitting with Matron, and Quistis.....where was she?
"Hey Seifer," she said leaning on his head since he was sitting down.
There she was!
"What do you want," he questioned laying down so she fell down next to him in the sand.
"Follow me," she said trying to surpass a yawn. She began to walk. Reluctently he got up and followed her.
She led him to the flower field. She sat down in the middle of the field, and he sat down next to her.
"Now what did you want," he questioned. He picked a flower and began to pick the stem off piece by piece.
"To sleep," she said lying down her head on his lap.
"Why do you need me here," he questioned. He began to play with her hair.
"Well Matron said you should never go off alone, actually she said never to roam off. But anyways I need someone to protect me." She closed her eyes.
"I'll protect you," he said to the sleeping girl.
"The l..li...tt..le dog j...j...ju..ju."
"The little dog jumped over the fence. Gosh, you can't read and your six," laughed the boy from his bed.
"Shut up Seifer," Quistis yelled.
