Whenever I See You

---Reunited

"Hurry Squall!" A hyper blonde teenager yelled, waving his friend to him. Squall, a boy with gray-blue eyes and brown hair sighed as he walked down the hallway after leaving his dorm.

"Zell, calm down."

His friend, the blonde boy, sighed. "She's coming back! Aren't you excited?"

The other teen only slightly shrugged, shoving his hands into his pockets and walking absentmindedly down the hall.

Sighing, Zell shrugged and waved him off, running down the halls and leaving the lone wolf behind.

To the students, he looked like he didn't care, or didn't want to, so they paid him no mind, despite the fact that over half of Garden was rushing to the same spot as Zell.

When Zell arrived he pushed through the crowd, getting many angry glares and fists raised to him, and looked around for the source of the crowd.

Seeing the long, black car pull up, he smiled and ran until he was leaning over the red ropes cutting them off. He waited until she got out of the car.

Her hair was dark black, falling just past her shoulders, and her eyes were gentle and the color of chocolate. She stepped out and her eyes grew big.

"I didn't expect a crowd…"

"Rinoa!" Zell yelled, and, after getting her attention, waved her over. She ran over to him with a smile.

"I missed you Zell!"

"Me too! But Squall's been a disaster since you left! You can stay now, right?"

She looked back to the car that was beginning to drive away and nodded. "Yeah, I can stay."

"Yes!" he yelled, pumping his fists into the air. "Go see Squall; he's been dead for the last month."

She looked around the crowd, which was now waning, and shrugged. "I don't see him…"

"Yeah," Zell nodded, "I dragged him part of the way here, but you know him…who knows where he is now."

She smiled. "Thanks Zell, you were always there for us!"

She ducked under the velvet ropes and ran out of the Quad and into the school. She looked down the main hall seeing nothing, then decided to check his dorm.

She knocked and heard a grunt, so she opened the door. Squall was lying on his back on the bed, staring at the ceiling, hands folded behind his head.

"Squall!" she yelled, running over and lying on top of him, hugging him close. "I'm so glad to see you!"

Squall jumped. "Rinoa? Get off of me!"

He pushed her off and she stood by his bed, and he sat up. "Why weren't you down there?"

"Too many people."

"Did you miss me?"

Her eyes burned into him. He shrugged.

"Well, I missed you!"

Sighing, he looked into her eyes and replied. "I missed you too."

She smiled, glad she could get him to say anything. "Zell said you've been a disaster since I left…"

He didn't blink for a minute, then lied back down and rolled over in his bed, staring at the wall, refusing to say more.

She smiled. "Squall, you'll never change."

Rinoa was taken away by her father for awhile. Yeah, that's why she was gone. Thanks for reading!
