Chapter 3 : Getting the Scores
All he could do now to cover his fault is by making the present in time for Rinoa. He is still short of the scores from Quistis. After the lecture he went to see Quistis.
"Ah, Squall. I'm finishing the song I just need few more hours. Um… maybe you can have it tonight. Oh, yes! Can you please help me contact Irvine? I need him for the composition," she said.
"How did he get involved in this?" Squall asked her with a sterner voice.
"I was composing when he suddenly came in and offered to help. Well, he's a genius. A very gifted composer so I need him to give me some ideas," she explained.
After that, he went to the hospital to visit Rinoa. He brought her fresh lilies. There, he saw Irvine and Rinoa talking and laughing.
"Squall!" Rinoa exclaimed while munching her apple.
"Hi, Squall," Irvine greeted.
He just nodded.
"Irvine came an hour ago and brought me this. Have some!" she offered.
Squall's eyes widen at her statement.
*An hour (Squall, anything would have happened if it wanted to be happened).
Squall was controlling himself and delivered the Quistis message to him. Irvine got excited and quickly went away. Squall went to close the window, which blew in cold breeze and made Rinoa shivers.
"You are the best!"
After spending a few hours there, Squall drove back to Balamb. He went to the music room to see how the composition was going on. He saw Quistis and Irvine sitting very close together.
"Oh, Squall. Hold on, I'm searching the rest of the scores," she said and went to find the stuff.
"Don't you think Quistis is a very attractive person?" Irvine asked his friend.
"Huh?"
After thinking for a while and connect some happenings, finally Squall got what he meant. He was attracted to his instructor. He told him that Quistis is very sophisticated and kind-hearted. He admired the elder one and is always praising her. Squall was relieved at first but knowing Irvine is not a serious guy towards a relationship, he has not much hope on him. He knew his instructor is rational person, a leader. She wouldn't fall into trap like this unless he is someone she trusted. Meanwhile, Irvine IS serious in this time's relationship. There is a special kind of feeling when he is close to her not like him with other girls. She got the wit, the charm and the beauty, probably those things a person need to make him stick on the ground. Absolutely perfect to Irvine.
"Need my help?" he offered help.
"I found it," she said.
"Here it is. Do you want it now or after the last part is compose?" she asked Squall.
"I'll come again later,"
"Maybe in 1 hour time?" she asked Irvine.
"Two hours would be best," he said and threw Squall a wink.
He went way and glanced at them the last time and saw Irvine drawing nearer to Quistis.
He went to look for Zell and asked him to join him for training. Zell agreed and they headed to the training center. On the way…
"What do think about Irvine and Quistis?" Squall asked.
"What about them?" he asked back.
"They… you know,"
Zell super deformed and screamed.
"I thought it was Selphie who likes Irvine!!" he exclaimed and slapped his mouth.
"Huh?"
Suddenly some plant monster started to launch some attacks. They fought for a while before continuing their gossip.
"What about Irvine and Quistis?" Zell asked with his sly look.
"Unless you tell me about Selphie first," Squall said coolly.
"But…(sigh), ok I'll tell you but you must promise me you'll not tell another soul," he said.
Squall nodded.
"Actually I found it myself not long ago. Selphie was looking at him with those… you know, eyes, but since you said what you said just now, I think she doesn't stand a chance," he said.
"Oh…." Squall commented and continued his training.
He glanced at his watch and excused himself. Zell wanted to go too but Squall didn't permitted; he would just make things worse.
He entered the music room and Quistis was playing her song on the piano. Squall was mesmerized by the melody of the song. He must admit the song has the nicest and unique melody he has ever heard. After the song, he clapped and praised, which is something he rarely does. Quistis blushed and scratched her head.
"Actually Irvine helped a lot too," she said.
*Maybe I've misunderstood him.
"My mind was full with ideas when I imagine your lovely Rinoa in my head," he told him and showed him some actions.
*I take back my words.
Squall frowned at him and he knew he had said something wrong.
"I was just joking! Hahahaha!" Irvine put his hand on his shoulders and laughed.
Squall shoves his hand off roughly and went back to his room.
"What?" he said when Quistis looked at him.
"It's not his fault, you know. Your words would have offended him," she said and continued her pieces while leaving Irvine standing, dumbfounded.
