Chapter2
Squall pointedly took a seat close to the stairs and the farthest away from them, yet never losing them from his view.
"What have you been doing with your life?" asked Zell, nervous after a long silence.
"Taking care of Samael. I don't intend to get a job until after he starts second grade."
"Aren't you restless? It has to be boring staying at home and doing nothing. What about money problems?"
"I'm content in raising my son and he keeps me busy. He's also a very active child. It's rare we stay indoors, even on rainy days. As for money, I have enough."
"How did you gain weight if you're always with your son?"
"A child isn't as active as a man needs to be," replied simply Squall as he looked over at the clock.
It was almost ten thirty, later than Squall had intended to stay up. He stood and waved his hand towards the door.
"You've extended your stay. Leave."
Zell pouted, but Squall didn't care.
"Only if you promise to come visit Balam Garden. With your son," replied Irvine.
"No."
"Then we're not leaving."
Squall's eyes narrowed as his anger rose.
"I want nothing to do with Garden. I will not go visit one just because you ask that I do, Kinneas. Now leave."
"Not until you decide to come. Would it kill you to see your old friends once?"
"No, it wouldn't. But since I don't have any, I don't need to go to Garden."
It seemed to really shock them that Squall didn't consider them friends. I t didn't surprise Squall they'd hope so much.
"We're not your friends? Then what are we?!" exclaimed Zell.
"Simple acquaintances, that are very loud and un-welcomed."
Zell's self control snapped and he punched Squall square in the jaw. The brunet fell down, hitting his head on the wall behind him. Irvine tried to grab the blond before he attacked once more, but Zell easily freed himself. Before he could reach Squall though, a huge dog jumped on him, making the blond fall and get bitten.
"Chaos, heel," came a dangerously calm voice.
Irvine went to Zell's side before looking over to see Seifer Almasy in the hallway, not looking pleased at all. The blond eventually moved to Squall's side, helped him up and checked his head, casting a small cure spell on him.
"My I know why you two are in my house?" he asked, stick using his too calm voice.
"Isn't this Squall's house, Almasy?" replied Irvine after casting a cure on Zell himself.
"No. It's registered under my name, Kinneas. Are you going to answer or is Chaos going to have to bit it our of you?"
It was clear to anyone he would allow the dog to eat them alive, if only for the fact they were trespassing.
"We learned Squall was here and decided to some visit our friend," replied Zell.
"Friends don't try to break each others' jaws when visiting," growled Seifer, in turn making Chaos growl.
"What kind of dog is that?" Zell managed to ask, gulping when it pulled back its lips to show him its teeth.
"Cross breed between a Great Dane and a Rot Weller. He's a very strong puppy."
Just by the way Seifer was proud of it proved its great strength. Chaos was probably more than just its name.
"We want Squall to come for a visit at Balam Garden. The others will want to see him also," finally said Irvine.
"Oh, really? Then we'll go."
"No, we are not," objected Squall, but Seifer plainly ignored him.
"You're not welcomed, Almasy. Only Squall is," interrupted Irvine.
"Then he's not going."
Squall relaxed at that, but he could tell Irvine and Zell weren't going to give up so easily.
"Will you leave your…pet here if we allow you to come?" asked Irvine.
"No, he's coming. He's still in training, you see? Can't really stop and start up again. Heartilly's pet is just going to have to deal with not being the top dog anymore. And Samy just hates to part with Chaos, unless me of Squall are with him."
Using the kid as an excuse was a low blow, and they all knew it, which was why Seifer used it.
"When will you come?" asked Zell.
"When do you expect us? Or do you need to warn everyone of our coming?"
Irvine gave a snort of disagreement. Seifer was purposely pushing buttons, again.
"You're welcomed at any time you want."
"I'm off for the week. We'll head over tomorrow then."
Squall ignored them all at this point and got chaos some food and water, knowing it was hungry and thirsty, or it wouldn't have obeyed Seifer so easily when it had attacked Zell. The dog was as over protective as Seifer, especially when it concerned Samael. And considering Squall's condition, Chaos was also on edge with people around its second master.
"Chaos, food," he called gently.
The dog came and licked Squall's hand before going to eat. Squall came out of the kitchen just in time to see Seifer closing the door on the intruders' backs.
"I'm not going," he stated as he crossed his arms over his chest, back against the wall.
"We are."
"Why?"
"To show them what a happy family we have. I also don't want them coming around when you'll be too defenceless."
Seifer moved closer until he could rest his forehead against Squall's and touch the brunet's slightly bulging belly.
"Four more months," whispered Squall, kissing Seifer's lips.
"Yeah. One more after? Or more?" asked Seifer, hopeful.
"We'll see. Let's just see this one be born and at least grow a bit. Go pick up Samael and put him in our bed. He woke up when those idiots came and went back to bed scared."
"Yes ma'am!"
Squall just shook his head, locked the front door and headed to bed, Chaos following him and going to sleep on its bedding on the floor.
