Chapter Eighteen: The Plan
Ceres and Zell sat in the classroom, waiting for the mandatory class to begin. It was for both SeeDs and students, so alot of people was there. Most importantly though, the suspect was there.
Five minutes before the class started, Seifer and Selphie came in. Their arms were around each other's waist. They sat down, whispering and cuddling with each other. Ceres smiled, and looked at the suspect, seeing them obviously angry. The plan was working.
The class was boring and Zell and Ceres kept their eyes on Selphie and Seifer and the suspect. Things were going better than planned.
The charade went on for several weeks. Until, one day, when everyone was in the cafeteria. Seifer looked at Ceres, who nodded. Seifer then stood up and took one of Selphie's hands in his. He kneeled beside her and looked deep into her eyes. They had the entire room's attention. "Selphie Tilmitt," Seifer began, "I love you with all of my heart and soul. Would you give me the pleasure of being my wife?"
Selphie's eyes got big and her mouth dropped down to the floor. Tears filled her eyes, and she hugged Seifer tightly, "Of course I will!" she exclaimed happily.
Zell looked at Ceres and raised an eyebrow, "They sure are very good actors at this." Ceres just shrugged her shoulders and turned her attention back on the two.
"Will you meet me later on tonight, say around 7:00 P.M., at the Training Centre?" Seifer asked Selphie, who nodded yes.
"It's almost time." Ceres whispered to Zell, standing up to dump her tray.

As planned, Selphie arrived 15 minutes eariler than what she was supposed to be. She stood there for a few moments, nervous as hell.
She heard someone behind her, and whirled around to see who it was, but nobody was there. "Hello?" Selphie called, her voice trembling, "Is anyone there?" Only the silence answered her.
Selphie sighed, 'You're getting paranoid' she thought to herself. She turned around to leave, but someone blocked her path. She gasped when she saw who it was.
"Rinoa!" She exclaimed.
Rinoa stood behind her, looking highly upset. Selphie noticed she held a gunblade in her hand. Squall's gunblade..
"How dare you?" Rinoa hissed, grabbing Selphie by her hair, causing the small brunette to yelp in pain.
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Selphie cried, struggling to get free.
"After all of this.." Rinoa said, letting go of Selphie's hair. "I thought that Seifer would finally be mine.. But no.. You've got to come in and ruin everything!" She pointed accusingly at Selphie.
"You kidnapped the Headmaster?" Selphie asked, confused, "But why???!!"
Rinoa laughed, "You really are daft, aren't you?" She walked until she was inches away from Selphie's face, "It's simple. You see, I'm in love with Seifer. And, for a while, he was mine. But, then, Cid had to come in and mess everything up. He ordered them to KILL Seifer. And he should pay for it."
"Where is he?" Selphie gasped, frightened by this side of Rinoa. 'She's mad..' she thought wildly to herself. 'She's fucking out of her mind!'
"Don't worry," Rinoa replied, shoving Selphie to the ground, "He's safe, for now. But, you on the otherhand," she pointed the tip of the gunblade to Selphie's throat, "are not I'm afraid."
Selphie closed her eyes tightly as Rinoa raised the gunblade. "Do you have any last words before you go?"
"Please..." Selphie whispered, crying, "Don't... Rinoa.."
Rinoa laughed madly, "I'm sorry! I can't help you there!"
'I'm going to die..' Selphie thought miserably. 'I'm going to fucking die.....'
