A/N: Thanks once again to all who have reviewed. I like to keep my readers interested in my stories at all costs so if anyone ever has any suggestions please share them with me. Also, I have a reader who doesn't like Selphie with Riku so I'm going to dedicate this chapter to her. Thanks for reading anyway, RikuxTifa. This chapter will be sad for my other readers. I told you chapter 14 was totally unexpected so I hope you're surprised. Please enjoy…

Chapter 14: What?!

It's been a couple weeks since I told Riku and my friends that I was pregnant. Now practically the whole school knows. News travels fast around campus. I called my brother and sister and told them and I've been talking to Amé more since she's gonna be the maid of honor. She's really excited about it. Planning a wedding in a month and going to college can be tough. I sat at my desk in my dorm room after just finishing my homework and looked over my list of things to do for wedding plans. I realized I hadn't talked to Irvine since the day I blew up on him. I picked up my phone and called him.

"Hey, It's Irvine, Unfortunately, I'm not here right now. If you're a beautiful girl that I gave my number to, I'm sorry I missed your call but if you leave you name and number I promise I'll call you back. If you're anyone else I'll call you back if I feel like it. Haha. Just kidding. You can leave a message too." His voicemail picked up.

"Hey, Irvine. It's me, Selphie Tilmitt. I wanted to tell you I'm really sorry for the way I blew up on you that day and for not talking to you all this time. I would like to talk to you so if you could call me back that'd be great. Or actually I'd really like to talk to you in person so if you could please meet me at the park around 4 that'd be better. I hope to see you there. Thanks." I said to his voicemail and hung up.

I looked at the time and realized it was 3. I guess I didn't give him much time. I got up and started walking out the door. I walked out of the freshman building and started to pass the sophomore building when I spotted the guy that had saved me that day. He was sitting on a bench apparently waiting for someone. I slowly walked closer and hid behind a tree to get a closer look at him. I had to know if he looked like Irvine. As I looked at his face I saw a tattoo. It was a snake-like dragon that went around the edge of his eye. The head was at the peak of his eyebrow and it curved around his eye so the tail stopped on top of his cheekbone. That looks kinda cool but I suppose that probably means he's dangerous. I wonder why he's sitting there? Who could he possibly be waiting for? Could he possibly be Irvine's brother? He does look a lot like him. My thoughts were interrupted when someone came up behind me and put their hand on my shoulder. I gasped and turned to see a guy I'd never seen before.

"What are you doing hiding behind a tree?" he asked.

"Uh…" I stammered and glanced over at the guy sitting on the bench. He was looking up at me now. Great. Now he knows I was staring! "Uh… I was um… looking for someone." I said nervously as I turned back to the guy that had surprised me.

"Who are you looking for?" he asked.

"Irvine Kinneas." I answered.

"He won't come out of his room because I'm here." The guy on the bench spoke. I turned. "I'm his brother, but we don't get along too well." I swallowed hard. Brother? He is Irvine's brother?! "Why are you looking for him?"

"Uh… I just want to talk to him." I managed to say.

"He'll probably talk to you, especially since you're girl." I blushed. "And if you like him, be careful, he flirts a lot. He may not like you the same way."

"Uh… It's not like that… I'm engaged." I shyly corrected showing him my ring.

"Oh, then you should really stay away from him."

"Why?"

"He's been known to break up a couple engagements."

"But he seems nice."

"People aren't always what they seem to be are they?" he asked more like a statement.

"I— uh… I guess not." I stammered.

"What the hell are you doing here, Yiru?!" we heard someone yell. I turned to see Irvine come running out of the sophomore building.

"Just checking on my brother." Yiru stated.

"Why do you care?" Irvine asked him defiantly.

Yiru just shrugged and started walking off. He stopped and turned back to me. "I'm sorry for scaring you that day. It was not my intention. Be careful and remember what I told you." Then he continued to walk off.

"What did my brother tell you?" Irvine asked me.

"Well uh… he said for me to stay away because you flirt too much and that you break up engagements."

"That's not the case. Damn him. I did that one time and it was because the girl asked me too."

"Oh. Uh… can I ask why you and your brother don't get along?"

"I'm sure you saw the tattoo above his eye?" he asked. I nodded. "That means he's part of a gang called the Dragons. If you see a tattoo like that on anyone please stay away from them. They're dangerous. My brother isn't all that bad I just hate him for joining in the first place."

"I guess that makes sense." I stated to myself.

"So, what are you doing here?"

"Well I was hoping to talk to you. Didn't you get my message?"

"Yeah. I got it. I was finishing some homework when you called and I was about to call you back but my roommate came in and told me my brother was outside talking to you."

"Oh." I blushed slightly. "Are you that concerned about me?"

"Considering that I saw my brother the day you tripped… yeah. I thought he was the cause."

"No, he wasn't. He actually sorta saved me in a way."

"That's surprising. What'd you wanna talk to me about?"

"I was gonna tell you I'm sorry for screaming at you that day… I wasn't exactly feeling well and I was scared and…"

"I understand. So did you work out everything with your fiancé?"

"Yeah. I also wanted to invite you to our wedding at the end of the month."

"Uh… I guess."

"Great! I'll give you a proper invitation soon. I just wanted to make sure you were gonna talk to me first."

He laughed. "I never stop talking to a girl unless they tell me to. If there's one thing my brother has right about me… it's that." He admitted.

I laughed and hugged him. "I should probably get back to my dorm now. I still have some homework to finish and wedding plans to arrange."

"Okay. See you. And be careful. The Dragons have been known to roam the campus."

"Okay. Thanks."

He left back into the sophomore building and I started toward the freshman building but turned the other way and continued walking. I don't know why I was walking that way but I just had this feeling like I didn't want to go back right now. It was nice outside for it being December. I knew it was supposed to get a lot colder tonight too but I just wanted to enjoy it right now. I walked around campus thinking about my wedding and names for the baby. I started smiling in my thoughts and someone suddenly picked me up by the back of the shirt and lifted me in the air. My heart stopped as I came face to face with the same guy as last time.

"I know you. You're that girl that ran into me." he stated. I was so terrified I couldn't speak. "What's a pretty girl like you doing walking around at this time a day?" I continued to stare at him in horror. My eyes widened as I caught a glimpse of two more guys coming up behind him.

"She's pretty. What are we gonna do with her?" one asked.

"I haven't decided yet. This is the second time I've run into her."

"Hey, Fike, she's also the girl that was talking to Yiru's brother."

"Is she now?" Fike asked. They both smiled and nodded. "How do you know Yiru's brother?" I still couldn't speak. All I could think about was how much trouble I was in. "I asked you a question, bitch!" he yelled as he threw me to the ground. I landed on my side, got up and tried to run but one of the other guys grabbed me. "You think you're just gonna run like last time?" he smirked. "I don't think so."

"P—please j—just let me go." I stuttered.

"Nah uh. You got me into trouble that day. You're gonna pay."

Before I could react he slapped me across the face so hard I fell to the ground. Again I tried to run but they caught up with me and they all surrounded me. This isn't good. I'm in big trouble and there's nothing I can do about it. Why didn't I just go back to my dorm? I thought as one of the guys picked me up off the ground.

"Are you gonna answer me now?" Fike asked. I wanted to answer him but I was too terrified to speak. "So you want more?" No! I thought. He threw a punch toward my stomach. I immediately wrapped my arms around myself so he'd punch my arms. As he continue to throw punches at me I kept my arms in place. This really hurts and it can't be good for my condition. He threw a punch at my face. I took it and didn't move my arms.

"Why are you not protecting your face? Are you that scared of me or is there something else you're defending?" Fike mocked.

"Hold it right there! You're under arrest!" Someone ordered behind me. I know that voice.

My arms dropped slightly as I turned to see who it was. The guy punched below my ribcage and took off running. I fell to the ground holding my stomach and trying to breathe. What if something happened to the baby? Why did I move my arms?

"You'll be okay now." The police officer said as he came to me.

"No. Get me to a hospital." I demanded.

"I'm sure you'll be fine."

"No! You don't understand. I'm pregnant." I replied firmly my voice trembling.

He immediately stood up and demanded somebody call an ambulance, helped me to my feet, and sat me down on a bench.

"Can you tell me your name, Miss?"

"Selphie Tilmitt." I answered softly as I glanced up at him. He looks so familiar. I suddenly felt sick and my head started to spin. The ambulance came and put me on a stretcher. I could barely keep my eyes open.

"Tilmitt!" Somebody yelled. Tilmitt? What? I thought as my eyes closed.


I woke up in the hospital a few hours later. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Riku sitting next to me.

"Selphie! Are you okay?" he asked as he stood by my bed.

"I think so." I replied. "I'm just worried about the baby."

"The doctor said the baby would be fine." he assured me.

"That's good to know." I breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm glad too. What happened?" he asked me.

I sighed and explained starting with when I was talking with Irvine.

"… and the weird thing is that I think I saw my dad."

"You couldn't have."

"I guess you're right. It's impossible. He just looked so familiar to me."

"I'm just glad you and the baby are okay." he smiled.

"Yeah." I replied smiling back. I just don't understand. I could've sworn that was my dad. But Riku's right. Isn't he?

As I was leaving the hospital with Riku, I saw the police officer that saved me. I stopped and stared for a moment. He really does look like my father. But he can't be. I'm still dreaming.

"Miss Tilmitt, may I have a word with you?" he asked. I glanced up at Riku. He was staring in shock too. We walked over to him. "First of all, I am an officer of the World Police. I would like to ask you a few questions about what happened."

"Uh… okay."

"In private if you don't mind." He replied.

"Please, let him stay. After every thing that's happened I really don't want to leave him."

"Fine. Then both of you come with me." We walked into an empty room with him. "How did you get involved with such a person as Fike?"

"Well, it was an accident. I ran into him and apologized but he started yelling at me and I was saved by someone else that had a tattoo around his eye…"

"Yiru Kinneas. Go on."

"Well when I was walking around campus someone suddenly picked me up and I looked to see the same guy. There were two others with him that I didn't recognize. He was asking me questions and I was too scared to answer so they started hitting me."

"I see. Miss Tilmitt, that's not all I wanted to talk to you about." I stared at him. "Could you please tell me your full name?"

"Why would you need to know that?!" Riku snapped.

"For many reasons." He stated.

"It's okay, Riku." I turned to the officer. "My name is Selphie Deána Tilmitt."

The officer looked shocked. "Where do you live?"

"These are pretty personal questions!" Riku defended.

"I know. Please, just humor me. I mean no harm."

"Right now I live at the freshman hall of Twilight County University but I grew up on Destiny Island." I answered.

"Then you really are." He mumbled. "I'm sorry for what I've put you through. It must have been hard going to high school without a father." I stood in complete shock. Did he just say what I think he just said? "Yes, I am, Officer Hayato Tilmitt, former Chief of Destiny Island."

"That's not possible." I stated.

"Yes it is. I never died in the first place. I had to fake my death for the protection of the family."

"What are you talking about?! We thought you had…"

"I know. Your mother knew, but she couldn't tell you. You see, the Dragons are a gang that has been roaming worlds for a long time. I'd been trying to get them arrested for years and one of them threatened my family. I had to fake my own death to keep you all safe."

"I don't know what to say. This is just…" You mean my father has been alive all this time?!

"The point is, we now have most of them in jail. I just can't go back to Destiny Island permanently just yet."

"Does Jamie know?" I asked.

"Yes. Being a police officer himself he found out almost immediately."

"And he still never told me."

"He couldn't. For your sake and for Talitha's. Especially since your mother got sick."

"I guess that makes sense. I just don't know how to take this. I've missed you so much and now you're here. It's so weird." My dad. He's alive. He's actually alive. It's been four years and he lied to me but it was for a good cause at least.

"I'm sorry. I suppose we have a lot to catch up on when you're ready." He replied as he turned to leave.

"Dad." I stated softly. He turned and looked at me. I ran into his arms hugging him and crying. "I'm so happy you're alive."

A/N: OMG! I almost killed Selphie! again. lol. Only it would've been worse this time. Please don't forget to review!
