"Why do I feel so hurt?" Garnet muttered. "Zidane goes after every girl in school and then he rejects me!"
"Garnet!" Zidane caught up to her and touched her arm. "C'mon you gotta understand my feelings! I don't want to be with you right now!"
"I do. So now you need to understand mine. Leave me alone ok?" Garnet ran ahead and Zidane and he stopped and shook his head.
"Garnet you're back!" Ruby squealed and hugged her. "What's goin on with you and Zidane anyway?"
"Nothing. I don't like him." Garnet answered and turned away leaving Ruby standing alone with a surprised look on her face.
She didn't see Ruby again until lunch and she cornered Garnet. "Now what's the matter? You know that you can't fool me!"
Garnet sighed and followed Ruby to a table. "Zidane said that he isn't ready to go out with me but he might have well had said he hates me! Why do I even like him? He isn't even my type." Garnet sighed and put her head on the table.
"Garnet, you're the prettiest girl in school no matter what the Eiko says." Ruby said sweetly. "And I'm sure that if ya play hard to get then you'll get Zidane. Guys never like girls that throw themselves all over them." Ruby said. "I should know."
"You're right Ruby." Garnet said softly. "It's not like me to go after a guy at all."
"I know hun." Ruby said.
"Yeah, Garland is Kuja's dad." A voice from another table made Garnet's ear perk up.
"How could I have forgotten?" Garnet leaped up and pushed her tray towards a shocked Ruby. "I just realized something! I gotta go I'll call you later!"
"Zidane!" Garnet pushed through a group of kids and grabbed his arm. "I found out where Garland lives!"
"What?" Zidane exclaimed and turn to Garnet his face lighting up. "Where?"
"Well, um, he's Kuja's father." Garnet looked down not sure if she wanted to see Zidane's face. "I forgot, I only met him once when Kuja and I were dating."
"W-What?" Zidane muttered. "You mean that my brother might be Kuja?"
"I don't know. Come by my house after school. I'll make Kuja let us in." Garnet smirked.
That day after school Zidane hesitantly knocked on Garnet's door and she immediately answered it. He bit back a gasp for she had changed out of her normal outfit and was wearing extremely tight pants and a low cut tank top.
"I have to get Kuja to let us in." Was all she said and Zidane slowly nodded.
"This is Kuja's house?" Zidane muttered and he stared at the mansion before them.
"Yes." Garnet answered and rang the doorbell. A servant answered it and glanced at the kids.
"What do you want?" He asked stiffly.
"Is Kuja here?" Garnet asked and the servant nodded and stepped away from the door.
"Who is it?" A voice called and Kuja came down the streets and looked up. "G-Garnet?" He asked his eyes widening at the sight of her.
"Hello Kuja." Garnet said seductively, making Zidane raise his eyebrows. "Zidane would like to see your father, Garland. But while he's doing that you might need to keep me busy."
Kuja opened his mouth to refuse, for he hated Zidane but Garnet batted her eyelashes at him and he nodded. "My dad's office is up those stairs first door to the left." Kuja said coldly. "You have to come with me Garnet, to my room."
Garnet nodded and whispered to Zidane, "Hurry up, I won't let Kuja go to far but you may not have much time."
Zidane nodded and headed up the stairs. With one quick glance back and Garnet.
Kuja pulled Garnet into his room and pushed her into the bed. "What you want to get back together with me now?" He asked angrily.
"No, I just need to keep you busy." Garnet answered with a smile laying out on the bed.
"Keep me busy from what?" Kuja asked suspiciously.
"Oh, Zidane just needs a little time to talk with his fa-I mean Garland." She said and pulled Kuja to her.
Please hurry up Zidane! She thought as Kuja put his hands around her waist. And laid his lips on hers.
"Come in." A deep voice said as Zidane knocked on the door. He opened and the man sitting at the desk frowned at him. "Who the heck are you?" He asked and Zidane closed the door.
"My name is Zidane sir, I came to talk to you about something." Zidane said slowly.
"Zidane?" Garland looked startled at the name. "What do you want? I'm a busy man and don't have time for silly interruptions."
"This won't take long sir." Zidane answered and pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket. It was the adoption papers with Garland's signature on them. "Would you look at this?"
Garland stared at the papers and then pushed them back towards Zidane. "What do you want? I don't know what you're trying to prove." He looked like a trapped animal the way his eyes darted around the room as if looking for an escape.
"I'm your son. I'm Zidane Tribal." Zidane said as the man angrily stood up.
"You were my son once. I disowned you!" Garland said angrily and stood up. "You were the reason my wife died! Giving birth to you!"
Zidane swallowed quickly. "No. It wasn't my fault." Was all he could say as Garland walked over to him.
"You leave Kuja and me alone do you understand?" Garland said. "I am not your true Father. Go back to that Cid who adopted you. You are not my son. You were the reason she died!"
Zidane was so angry that he punched Garland in the gut. "I hate you!" He cried. "I just wanted to see who my real father was!"
Garland picked up Zidane by his shirt and walked out the room. "Get out or I'll call the police!" He said and tossed Zidane into the stairs.
"U-Uh." Zidane muttered and stood up and it looked as if it pained him to do so. "I won't be coming back you idiot!" He said. He leaped up and ran down the stairs. "Garnet?" He called and opened the door.
"Get off me Kuja!" Garnet was screaming as Kuja kept trying to unbutton her shirt.
"You know you want me babe." He whispered into her ear.
"No I don't!" Garnet said and finally managed to push him off her. "Goodbye you fool!"
Zidane grabbed Garnet's hand and they ran out the door and didn't see Garland standing at the top of the stairs watching them with a dark look in his eyes.
"Are you alright Zidane?" Garnet asked and then Zidane put his hands in his face and began to cry silently.
