Confusion of the Heart
Disclaimer: No
duh. Obviously, I do not own blah blah
blah and yada yada yada. Ok?
Anyhow, enjoy
this story!!
Quisits set out
to find Squall, to whom she's dying to talk to. She had a secret crush on him ever since she became his
instructor. "Where could he be?" she
asked to herself.
She asked Zell if
he saw Squall.
"Yeah, I saw him
go in the training center."
"Thanks." That's very typical of Squall.
In the training center,
she looked around the place, but couldn't find him, except for some T-Rexaurs,
Trats, and Chaterpillars.
Now where can
he be? He obviously not around here…….she thought for a while. "I know! The secret place way back!"
She ran to the
place, where it gives visitors a spectacular view of the Garden. Hoping very much to see him, she stepped
inside.
"Oh!!!…………Sorry…I
didn't mean to intrude," she said, trying to hold back tears.
Squall was
embracing Rinoa, turned and saw Quistis.
"Quistis. What are you doing here?"
Heartbroken,
Quisits took off and ran, tears streaming down her pale, angered face. I can't believe it…I wish I'd never set
foot in that place….why Squall? I loved
you, and you just had to tear my heart apart?
The next day….
"Hey, where's
Quisty?" Selphie Irvine.
Irvine shook his
head. "I dunno."
"Hmm. She and I are to plan a festival for the
quad today, and I haven't seen her."
"Hey! Selphie,
Irvine!" Zell was running towards them,
with a surprised look on his face. "Guess
what? Have I got news for ya. Seifer's
coming back!!!"
Their eyes went
big in surprise. "What the hell?"
Irvine declared. "I thought he quit and
got off from this place."
"I'll go tell
Quistis," Zell insisted.
"Don't bother, we
couldn't find her anywhere here."
"I'm sure she'll
show up sometime, but in the meantime, I'm going to tell Squall and Rinoa." He darted off to go look for them.
KNOCK KNOCK
"Who is it?"
Squall asked behind the door.
"Hey Squall. It's
me, Zell."
He opened the
door.
"I got some news
for ya. Apparently, Seifer's coming
back….here."
"What? You're serious?"
"Yeah, weird,
huh? Never thought he would come back
after so much trouble he caused in this place.
Man, people here wanted him to go away.
Anyway, do you know where's Rinoa?
I gotta tell her this too."
"I think she's at
her dorm."
"Thanks. Se ya later." He darted off and went to Rinoa's dorm.
"Rinoa! It's me, Zell. I got news for ya." No
answer. "Rinoa, you there?"
"Just a minute!!!"
cried a voice inside.
"Rinoa, is that
you?"
"Just a minute,
Zell. Just ,let me find my…….." the
door opened.
"Whoa. Sorry, didn't know you were taking a bath." He
turned around, facing the wall, embarrassed.
A towel covered
Rinoa's small body, her hair dripping water onto the floor.
"What is it,
Zell? Please hurry."
"Um..uh..Seifer's
coming back," Zell informed her.
"Oh wow. He's coming back, huh? Oooh, I can't wait to greet him! Well, thanks for the news. Anything else?"
"Yeah, do you
know where the hell is Quisty? We didn't
know where she is."
Rinoa scrunched
up her nose. "The last time I saw her…..she
was at the secret place in the training center, then she took off and ran."
"Oh."
"Well, bye then." She shut the door.
Zell, eating
hotdogs, as usual, saw a dark, familiar figure walking toward him. His mouth opened with shock.
"Hey
chicken-wuss, do ya miss me? Heh heh."
"Sheiber!! Yar
heer!" Zell said, with his mouth full of food.
"Yep, in the
flesh baby," he grinned.
Just then,
Selphie, Rinoa, and Irvine walked in the cafeteria.
"Seifer!!" Selphie
shouted.
"Seifer,"
muttered Irvine.
"Hi…..Seifer," Rinoa
said, as if she was being careful of what she's going to say.
"What's up,
Rinoa? Why, Selphie, long time no see!"
Squall walked
in. "Seifer."
"Squall, boy, you
haven't changed a bit, heh, heh. By the
way, where's Quistis? She's the only
one not giving me her greetings here."
"Um...we don't
know where she went." Zell said.
"Hmph. She's gotta be somewhere here. I just know it. I'll go find here and I'll give her a little welcoming surprise."
Squall rolled his
eyes. "Whatever."
Seifer began to
walk away. "Bye chicken-wuss."
Halfway chewing,
Zell stood up, and became furious. He
began punching air, until he began to choke.
"Cough cough
cough! Wa…ter!"
Rinoa came to his
aid. "Oh Zell. Here, drink!"
Dum de dum Seifer sang to himself. Wonder
where she is….Going to the elevator, he pushed the button to go to the floor
where a Shumi-being dwelled. Maybe she's
in here. He looks around, peeking into
large cracks…..nothing. Hmm……. He stood still, to see by any chance he'll
hear a stir in the silence.
"Sniff, sniff."
What was that?
He turned around.
"Sniff, sniff."
Someone's in here, and is……………crying?
The sound was coming from the top of a
ladder, where it leads to an abandoned control room. He climbed it, and reached the top.
"…….Quisty?" he
said quietly. "Is that…you?"
"…Seifer? *sniff.*
What are you *sniff * doing here?"
Seifer couldn't see
anyone, so he walked around to find the source of the voice. Hidden behind a control panel, Quistis sat with
her arms around her knees, her pants were wet with tears. Her smooth, pale face became a red, wet, sorrowful
picture.
"Oh man, Quisty. What did they do to ya, huh? Hmm…first time I saw you cry."
"What do you want…Seifer?
You want to cause more trouble like you
used to, huh?"
"What, no! Just wanted to find you and surprise you."
"The hell. Just leave me alone."
"Tch. Fine." He climbed down and left.
"Hey, Squall." Seifer
yelled to him at the cafeteria. "Guess what,
I found Quisty."
"What? Where?" Squall
asked, with worry.
Rinoa walked to them.
"You did?"
"Yep. You don't need
to thank me."
"Whatever."
Rinoa smiled. "Where is she? Thank goodness she's okay."
"She's down on the
floor below, up in a control room, and boy, was she ticked off when she saw me.
I think I'd leave this problem in your hands."
Rinoa and Squall ran
to the elevator, eager to see their Quisty.
"Quisty, you
here?" Rinoa yelled.
"C'mon, up there."
Squall motioned her to climb up the ladder.
They reached the
top, and looked around. Nothing.
"She's not here…let's
go back down."
At the ground,
they started to walk away to the elevator, when a sound caught their
attention. They turned around. It was Quistis.
"Hello
Squall. Nice to see you again….with
her."
"What? Quisty, what is up with you?"
Quistis, raised a
gun from behind her back.
Rinoa gasped.
Ok….I'm not done
with this…but what do you think??!!! Is it good? Please R & R. Your
reviews are my motivation. I'll try to
finish the next chapter soon. Please
don't flame meeeeeee. thanx
