Squall Leonhart was the most popular guy in school. When he walked down the corridor everyone was silent. If he picked you out of the crowd you would be the one slept with that night. No one ever denied him. He didn't intentionally go out to hurt people. They all knew he wasn't looking for a relationship. It was always just sex. A few may have thought they had a chance with the brunette but the only people that ever got close to him was his ex-girlfriend Rinoa, and Seifer his best friend.
As Squall walked the normally quiet corridor, he was stopped by a voice. One lone voice talking. Squall walked towards the annoyed voice and noticed Seifer was next to the speaker. The said speaker was at his locker exchanging books while talking to Seifer. "I can't believe that teacher. Giving me homework on the first day here." Squall smirked the chatty blonde was cute. Also Squall noticed he had a very nice ass. Seifer smiled to Squall then turned back to the speaker.
"Umm… Zell." Said Seifer.
It was then that Zell noticed how quiet the corridor was. "What?" He said turning to his cousin. Seifer nodded his head to something behind Zell. The shorter blonde turned and came face-to-face with an amused smirk. The guy was very close and Zell moved back so he was against his locker. "Can I help you?" Asked Zell, eyeing the brunette before him.
"I think you can." Squall's smirk grew. "You wouldn't happen to be Seifer's favourite little cousin would you?"
Zell nodded. Then it dawned on Zell, this was the guy Seifer was talking about. The chocolate brown hair, steel blue eyes and the leather clothes it all fitted. "You're Squall aren't you?" Asked Zell.
The brunette nodded. "That I am. I guess Seifer's been talking about me." Squall turned to Seifer who was laughing at Zell. The little blonde had funny facial expressions.
Zell smiled. "Yeah he has. Not much but he told me what you looked like." Squall leaned in closer to Zell. "Umm… what are you doing?" Zell said nervously.
"Yeah, I've decided to pick you." Zell started to get nervous when he saw Squall's smirked turn into a predatory grin. Seifer had stopped laughing and was all ears.
"Squall, no." Said Seifer shaking his head. Squall raised a hand to quieten Seifer.
"What do you mean you pick me?" Zell questioned nervously.
"I guess Seifer didn't tell you everything then."
"Squall." Said Seifer dangerously. "Don't."
Squall ignored Seifer protests. "You see Zell. I'm the most popular guy in school. They respect me so if I choose one of them then no one rejects me."
"Choose them for what?" Asked Zell with a feeling that he wouldn't what to know.
"Squall." Seifer's voice was threatening.
"To be my fuck buddy for the night." Zell's eyes went wide.
"You…you're… you…" Zell stuttered. Squall just continued to smirk. "You're a slut?"
Squall thought about it. "Yeah." Then he smirked again. Zell's face changed from shocked to angry.
"You sleep around with everyone in the school and don't give a damn what they feel?" Squall continued to smirk. Zell took this to mean yes. Zell pushed the brunette away. "Well you're not having me!" Zell ran past Squall and out of the school.
Seifer rubbed his forehead. "I thought you said you weren't going to tell him." Said the blonde.
Squall smiled. "I figured he should know everything about he before I pursue him."
"But now he knows, you won't have a chance."
Squall looked at Seifer seriously. "Why?"
"He thinks you're taking advantage of the people in school. He hates people that take advantage of other people because they have their respect or because they're older or any reason. He'll never want to see your face again."
"I never want to see his face again." Zell said for the sixth time that day. When Seifer reached the house Zell was outside standing by the door looking furious. Seifer hadn't given him a key because they wouldn't really need a second one.
It had been a couple of hours since school but Zell had not shut up about Squall. "Zell." Said Seifer trying to calm the younger boy.
"How can you be friends with a guy like that? I mean he sleeps around and doesn't even care about anyone else other than himself." Zell paced back and forth in the kitchen as Seifer sat at the square table drinking coffee.
"He wasn't always like that Zell." Sighed Seifer.
"Yeah right." Said Zell sarcastically. Zell stopped his pacing. "Hang on a minute." Zell turned to face Seifer. "He sleeps with everyone in the school right?" Seifer nodded. "Have you slept with him?" Seifer's eyes went wide.
"Now Zell, there's nothing between me and Squall." Said Seifer nervously.
"You are!" Shouted Zell pointing his finger at Seifer. "You're sleeping with him."
"Zell, it's not what you think!"
"Wait, you said you and Squall. Are you dating him?!" Questioned Zell looking like he really didn't want to know the answer.
"It's not like that. We just sleep together. There's nothing there." Stressed Seifer.
"But you're with him! How can you say there's nothing there?!" Zell accused. Someone knocked on the door. Zell turned towards the front door. "I'll get it."
Zell opened the door took one look at who was there and slammed the door in there face. Zell stormed upstairs. "Who is it?" Seifer asked Zell.
"Why don't you check yourself! I never want to see his face again!" Zell stormed into his room and slammed the door. Seifer winced. This wasn't going the way he thought it would. Seifer opened the front door and nodded to Squall, who walked in.
"Well I can see he's not too happy." Stated Squall heading towards the kitchen as Seifer closed the front door.
"I told you not to tell him." Seifer ran his hand through his hair.
Squall sat down at the dining room table. "I thought he should know the truth. Would you not want him to know?"
"Of course I do. I just think it would have been better to tell him after you were both together. Then he wouldn't be so mad at you for hiding it because he would know you were different from that." Squall shrugged. It didn't seem to bother him either way.
Upstairs Zell was lying on his bed. He didn't really understand what was happening. [Okay so Seifer is sleeping with Squall. But Seifer is trying to set me up with Squall. And I won't start dating Squall because he takes advantage of people. Zell sighed. He turned on his side and curled up into a ball. [I thought I would be safe here. I guess not.
There was a knock at Zell door. "What?"
"Dinner's out, Zell." Said Seifer.
"Is he still here?"
"Yeah. I made hotdogs, Zell." Said Seifer quietly. Zell thought about it would he go downstairs and put up with Squall to get some hotdogs or would he stay upstairs away from Squall but without hotdogs. Zell got up and opened his door and saw a sheepish looking Seifer.
"I'll come down." Said Zell walking past Seifer. "Only because there's hotdogs." Seifer smiled a bit. He had hoped that Zell had calmed down a bit.
Zell went downstairs and saw a plate of hotdogs at the dining room table, which Squall was sitting at. Zell took the seat directly opposite the brunette because on the square table that was as far away as he could get. Squall was smirking and Zell wanted to punch the brunette's face, but instead he started eating as if the taller boy wasn't there. Seifer took a seat beside both boys.
"I heard you don't like me very much." Said Squall.
"It doesn't take a genius to figure that one out." Retorted Zell.
"I think you've got the wrong idea about me." Said Squall.
Zell stopped his eating and folded his arms over his chest. "Explain it to me then." Challenged Zell.
"You seem to have the impression that I'm out to hurt people. Which I'm not." Said Squall calmly.
"But you still sleep around." Squall nodded.
"Everyone in the school knows I'm not trying to hurt them. If they wanted to turn me down then they could. Just no one has apart from you."
"Well I didn't know." Stated Zell huffily.
Squall looked to Seifer then to Zell again. "Seifer thought it was better for you not to know."
Zell rounded on to Seifer. "Why?" Questioned the smaller blonde.
"I thought that if you two got together then you would see the real Squall before we told you. But Squall decided he wanted you to know before hand." Said Seifer.
"You thought it was better I didn't know?" Zell narrowed his eyes at Seifer. "I don't understand how that would be better for me. Anyway why would I want to date someone who you're sleeping with?" Zell stood up and ate the last half of a hotdog he had. He then left the room and went back upstairs.
Seifer sighed. "Great now I'm the bad guy." He said to himself.
Squall smirked. "So you told him about us."
"There is no us."
"You know what I mean, Seifer."
Seifer sighed again and ran his hand through his hair. Squall's smirk grew and he leaned forward and kissed Seifer's cheek. "Not now Squall." Squall turned Seifer's head to face him and kissed him fully on the lips. Seifer closed his eyes and moaned into the kiss.
Upstairs Zell sat at his desk and started to read the book he had to finish reading by tomorrow. The English teacher really liked to work people. Zell stopped reading when he heard footsteps on the stairs. Then he heard a moan. Zell got up and went to his door. He didn't want to open it so he grabbed his chair and stood on it. He looked out of the window above his door. His eyes went wide when he saw Seifer and Squall kissing passionately, Seifer's hands on Squall's rear.
Zell got off his chair and dug in his bag for his personal CD player. He put in the loudest music CD into it and played it. He sat back at his desk and continued to read the book. Trying not to think about what was happening a few rooms down.
A while later in Seifer's room, Seifer was lying on his back on his bed. Squall was beside him, raised up on his elbow. Seifer covered his eyes with his arm. "You regretting it?" Asked Squall.
Seifer shook his head. "No, but we can't go on like this."
"Yeah."
"I was hoping that you and Zell could get together. You're both each other's type. And I think you'd be good together. But after today I don't know any more. It will take a while for Zell to even trust you." Said Seifer sadly.
Squall moved Seifer's arm so he could see the blonde's green eyes. "Why do you want us to get together so bad?"
Seifer sighed. "I think you could help Zell. Stuff happened when he was younger and he's been afraid to be with someone even if he did like him. I had hoped that you could be the one to help him out."
"What type of stuff?"
Seifer shook his head. "I can't tell you. Maybe Zell will when he trusts you. Which is a long time from today."
"I'd have to give up my slut job, won't I?" Seifer nodded. "I guess I could do that. You're cousin is very cute." Seifer smiled a little. "We'd have to stop this too though."
"Yeah. Would you be able to keep you're hormones in check?" Teased Seifer.
"I could try. I'm not promising anything though."
"That's fine."
"So I can pursue Zell then?" Seifer nodded.
"But if you do hurt him you will have me to deal with."
"Got you." Squall smiled. "We don't want X's on our forehead do we." Seifer laughed and looked at the scar on Squall's forehead that he had made only a few years ago. Seifer touched his own scar.
"No, we wouldn't want that."
