"Can there be distant between love and faith or will be there always be distance?"
Selphie and Irvine had just enjoyed one of the best moments they've had in a while. They had just locked Ayumi in the bathroom and they had time to themselves for a little while.
Selphie led him to her room and closed the door, she sat along the bed and he stood there looking around. "I guess Ayumi finally got something she deserved for once? I mean she goes around spreading rumors about me, things the whole school probably believes and what am I doing? Letting her get away with every little thing she does."
Irvine looked down at her and moved closer to her and looked directly into her eyes. "I never believed a thing she said, I mean it did sound a little out of it. But your Selphie, the Selphie Tilmitt, when have you ever done anything like that of the kind? She is just jealous, I mean who else to pick on other than the love of my life?"
She looked at him and saw everything he was saying in his heart and for once she actually felt loved by him. "Irvy, we have been through this so many times, I mean there is you and me and then there's her. Three is a crowd and I guess I will always be the third wheel to everyone. Who could possibly want me?"
Irvine just shook his head he never knew why she always thought so little of herself. "Sefie...why do you think that you not important to me? When I see you I feel like the happiest man on Earth and when you have the time for me I just get so happy. To have you want to talk to me is like a blessing to me."
Tears started form in her eyes she tried to hold her tears back, but they just started flow down her cheeks. She just leaned forward on him and cried.
Irvine was sort of confused and just wrapped his arms around her. "It'll be okay Sefie…please don't cry everything will be okay. As soon as I get things straight with her I'll come back to you."
She sniffled and pulled him on top of her and looked into his eyes. She touched the side of his face and caressed him a little. She had never heard him say things like this before. It was usually him talking to every other girl and making them feel special. "Irvy…do you love me?"
Irvine looked down into her emerald eyes and blushed a bit. He had never seen her quite as sexy as she was now and all he wanted to do was touch her. "I…I…I do love you, I know it often never seems that way but I really do love you."
She was happy for once in the past 3 months, it was usually I lot of him ignoring her or never having time for her. Everyone told her it was just an act to make her jealous, but she never use to believe them. "Why did you always use to ignore me so much?"
He shook he head and thought of all the times she tried to talk to her but he would just ignore her. "I wasn't ignoring you it was just that I was always busy and I never thought that I was hurting you by it."
Selphie sighed and played with little strands of his hair. "I'm sorry, I guess I was trying a little too hard to believe that you really didn't want to be near me. I had never thought you actually had a reason why you were never around me anymore. I mean we where best friends and it seemed like all you were worried about was yourself and you never had one thought of me at all. So I just stopped trying to please you and everyone else, I thought maybe if I disappeared for a while, no one would care that I was gone."
Irvine had never thought Selphie would ever think things like that, she always seemed like she was okay with everything he did. But he could she that she was truly sad in her heart. "Why didn't you tell me these things before? Why did you let yourself go months without telling anyone how you felt?"
She sighed she really didn't want him to know that she spent all her free time with Zell and told him all her problems. "I did tell someone my problems, he was the only person that wasn't busy at the time and he would listen to me. He was the only other best friend I had other than you, but you never wanted to listen so I just went to him all the time."
He thought for a moment and thought of all her friends, she only had 3 friends and that was him, Rinoa, and Zell. He got a little mad but he tried not to show it. "So you went to Zell everyday and talked to him?"
She sighed, "You were never around so there was no one else I could really talk to. Rinoa was to busy with Squall to even care about me half the time.
He nodded, "Well I guess I never thought like that, I guess I use to always think you liked him. I'm going to let you rest for bit and I'm going to go explain to her that I don't like her at all. Please don't leave this room, I am going to lock the door and when I come back, please open the door."
