I Promise
Author Notes:
- this is the
last chapter…I hope. Yeah, I'm pretty
sure this is the last chapter.
- I do not own
anything associated with FF8, but I do own this story, although I wish I own
FF8 (gives Squaresoft a death glare)
Pacing back and
forth, staring at his feet, he waited impatiently outside the infirmary. He sat down, and looked on the ground. Rinoa…….please don't leave me now. He sighed, trying to hold back tears.
Footsteps arose
from a distance and he looked up. Hoping it was Dr. Kadowaki, he arose. The door slid open, and Dr. Kadowaki stepped out. She had a blank expression on her face.
"Squall," she
uttered. He was looking at the
ground. "Squall…um…Rinoa…lost a lot of
blood…"
Squall looked
horrified. "Please don't tell me that—"
"No, Squall. Let me finish. Um, Rinoa lost a lot of blood, but she's stable right now. She does feel pain right now, so I suggest
you shouldn't let her talk that much."
He was relieved,
and nodded. Dr. Kadowaki watched him as
he slowly walked into the room.
Rinoa lay asleep
with bandages around her waist. She was
breathing heavily, with a pain stricken expression on her face. Squall walked in, and tears built up in his
eyes. "Rinoa." He sat down next to
her. "Please forgive me." He took her hand and held on it tight. He leaned over and kissed her gently on the
forehead. Tears streaking down his
face, he sobbed beside her.
"…Squall?"
Squall looked up,
seeing a pair of worrying eyes.
"Squall…I'm
scared."
"Don't worry,
Rinoa. Everything is going to be
okay." He caressed her bloodstained
hair. "I'm so sorry I wasn't there for
y-"
"Hush." Rinoa leisurely lifted one finger and
motioned Squall to come closer. She
pushed herself up to a sitting position. Squall leaned closer to her. Rinoa wrapped her arms around him and embraced him tightly. She closed her eyes and crystalline tears
fell down her pale face. Squall held
her tight and whispered in her ear.
"…I will never
leave you……………………I promise."
OKAY!!!! There you
have it. Soooo, how'd you like
it?? Please be nice and R & R. thanks.
