Disclaimer: Welp...as I have said so many times before...I don't claim to own anything here except D.W.... Squaresoft and all those peeps own the rest.

Well guys here's the next chapter. I'm hoping to finish this up sometime soon.

D.W. slowly opened his eyes and felt weight on his left arm. He looked to his left and saw his new reason for waking up in the morning. He let out a groan of satisfaction thinking of the night before. This caused Selphie to awake. She looked at D.W. and smiled.
"Good morning,"Selphie said sleepily.
"It is a good morning isn't it?"D.W. said grinning. He leaned over and kissed Selphie's forehead.
"What time is it?"
D.W. leaned over Selphie to look at the clock,"Oh man, it's early. It's like seven o'clock."
"Great. That means we can just lay here awhile before we have to get up."
"Sounds like a plan to me,"D.W. said wrapping his arm around Selphie's shoulders while Selphie layed her head on D.W.'s bare chest. They were both in heaven until...
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
"I swear I will kill whoever is knocking! Who is it!?" Selphie shouted angrily.
"It's me, baby, Irvine,"Irvine said entering. D.W. was pissed. 'This guy is just begging to get his ass kicked,'D.W. thought.
Irvine stopped as soon as he saw D.W. and Selphie in bed together appearing to be naked.
"Irvine! I didn't say come in! What do you want!?"Selphie demanded. She was getting angrier by the moment. 'How dare he just come barging in here!'she internally shouted.
"I just wanted to see if you wanted to get a little piece of Irvine tonight."
"Irvine, I do not nor will I ever want a little piece of anything to do with you and as you can see I'm kinda with my boyfriend at the moment so if you wouldn't mind, oh I don't know, leaving!"
"You know a lot of girls would kill to be in your shoes!"
"That's just the thing. The only reason you want me is because I am one of the only girls that doesn't want to be in these shoes."
Finally it was D.W.'s turn to speak up,"Listen! No means no, asshole! Even if we weren't together I wouldn't let Selphie be with you! You don't want her because she is a beautiful and amazing person! You want her because you have some sick goal of nailing every girl in sight and I'm tired of you constantly coming onto Selphie! Now if you don't want to get your wannabe cowboy ass OUT!"
At this Irvine angrily exited the room. D.W. pulled Selphie into a loving hug.
"Why does he have to be like that!?"Selphie cried,"We grew up together! Why can't he be the Irvine I knew as a child!?"
"I don't know, Selphie, but he scares me. Promise me you'll be careful. I couldn't bare to see you get hurt. I don't know what I'd do if I lost you right after I found you, so promise me,"D.W. whispered gently and lovingly.
"I promise,"Selphie whispered, lightly sobbing on D.W.'s shoulder. She knew she had lost one of her childhood friends, but at least she had D.W.
All of a sudden the ring of D.W.'s cellular phone could be heard from across the hall.
"I better get that,"D.W. said reluctantly as he climbed out of bed and started to get dressed. He knew it was Zerrik calling and he knew it wouldn't stop ringing until he answered it.
"Oh pleeeeaaase...stay,"Selphie begged.
"I'm sorry,"D.W. said kissing her forehead,"But I have to answer it."
Selphie finally nodded and D.W. left the room.

In D.W.'s room...

D.W. answered the phone and Zerrik immediately started talking,"Have you got the information I requested, Mr. Drake?"
"I'm gonna get it today."
"You're not thinking about backing out are you?"
"No. Why would I do that?"
"Because you know what will happen if you back out of this job don't you, Mr. Drake?"
"Yeah. They're gonna identify me by my dental records."
"That's correct, crude, but correct."
"I'll call you today after I get the details of the contract."
"Be sure that you do,"Zerrik said hanging up.
D.W. was very unhappy at the moment. He had to hope that this would be the only thing D.W. needed to do to collect his bounty. That way nobody would get hurt and he could go on pretending he was a SeeD. The papers he got forged could never be discovered as fakes. So he decided to get the mission overwith. He knew the daytime would be better than night. At night Squall's filing cabinet would be locked, but if he went during the day while Squall was out it wouldn't be. So he left hoping Squall was at breakfast.

In Squall's office...

Fortunately for D.W. Squall was at breakfast. He silently crept into Squall's office. He went over to the filing cabinet. 'Shit,'he thought,'he locked it anyway.'
D.W. decided that wouldn't be a problem. He pulled out a pocket knife and picked the lock like a master. He rooted to the files for a while until he found the one Zerrik was referring to. He read it over and felt that he had enough information memorized to give Zerrick the gist of it. He also knew that this would piss Zerrik off.
When he put the file back he didn't notice that he put the file back in the wrong place by one file. He left the office and went to his room to make the call to Zerrik.

In D.W.'s room...

D.W. grabbed his cell phone and dialed the number. As always Zerrik answered after one ring,"What is the news, Mr. Drake?"
"Well that contract you were talking about wasn't a contract it was an agreement about a treaty. Apparently Dollet is going to be the location of a treaty signing between Balamb Garden and Galbadia Garden. They are going to join forces and Trabia is planned to follow."
"My plans are ruined! If the three gardens join forces it will be impossible for my army to take them out. We needed to get them fighting amongst themselves to make it work."
"Oh well...is that all you needed me for? Later,"D.W. said desparately trying to end his whole relationship with Zerrik.
"Wait! There is still away for us to get the gardens fighting amongst themselves. If the commander of Balamb Garden was to be assasinated the rest of the garden would surely blame it on Galbadia!"
"What are you saying?"D.W. asked worried about what Zerrik was going to ask him to do.
"Mr. Drake, you are to assasinate Squall Leonhart."
"What? No, I can't."
"Remember what happens if you back out of this now. Goodbye,"Zerrik said hanging up.
D.W. fell back on his bed. How could he assasinate Squall? He couldn't be with Selphie if he did that. Of course he couldn't be with Selphie if he didn't do it either because he would be dead.
'Well D.W., you've got a decision to make. The largest bounty you've ever collected and freedom from bounties and crime or Selphie.'
D.W. grinned his mind, no his heart, was made up.

Meanwhile in Squall's office...

Squall and Irvine were hanging out just shooting the breeze when Squall went to pull a file.
"Hey, one of my files is out of order,"Squall said confused.
"Did you misplace one?"Irvine asked.
"That's impossible. I'm the only one with a key to this filing cabinet and I would never misplace a file as important as this. Someone went through my files."
Suddenly Irvine remembered that conversation he overheard outside D.W.'s door. 'Not only is this the perfect revenge,'Irvine thought,'but I don't even have to lie.'
"Squall, I know who went through your files. It was that new guy, D.W. I overheard him talking on a phone outside his doorway. It sounded like he was working for somebody doing a spy job against the garden,"Irvine said honestly.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm positive."
"I'll call Nida. We'll take him into custody and question him."

Outside D.W.'s room...

D.W. walked outside his room only to come face to face with Selphie. She smiled at him and he smiled back. 'Enjoy it,'D.W. thought,'you may never see that smile again.'
Just as D.W. was about to give Selphie a kiss Squall and Nida came rushing up the hall.
"D.W.! We're taking you into custody!"Squall said furiously when they reached D.W.
"Squall? What for?"Selphie asked, very confused.
"You're a spy aren't you D.W.? You went through my files! And we checked you out. You're papers were forged very well, but you're not really a SeeD!"Squall shouted getting more furious by the second.
"No!"Selphie shouted, crying,"It's not true! D.W., tell them it's not true!"
D.W. could only hang his head in shame.
"Oh my god! It is true! You bastard you lied to me!"Selphie screamed pounding her fists on D.W.'s chest.
"I'm sorry,"D.W. pleaded, also crying,"It started out as just my job.."
Before he could finish Selphie yelled,"Was making love to me part of your job!?"
"God no,"D.W. said crying harder,"I love you Selphie."
That was when Irvine decided to chime in,"Yeah right."
D.W. looked at Irvine and then back at Selphie,"You've got to believe me."
Selphie just continued to cry as Squall and Nida carried him away.

That night in the garden prisons...(A/N I know they didn't have prisons in the game, but for the purpose of this fic some prisons magically appeared.)

D.W. looked through the window and cried. He knew he had to escape from the prison or Zerrik would send someone to kill him because he had been caught. He just didn't know how. But first he wrote a note, a goodbye note to Selphie. When he finished he went to the bars in the front of the room and looked around for a way out. Suddenly a figure appeared in front of him on the other side of the bars.
"I'm going to get you out of here,"the figure whispered, a female.
The figure unlocked the door. When he stepped out he saw who the figure was.
"Quistis!"he whispered a little louder than he planned.
"Shhh yes it's me. Now come with me."
D.W. followed her until they were safely out of the prison and at the front gate.
"Zell got your motorcycle out of the garden impound and hid it in the woods near the Fire Cavern. He left some food with it. Find it and you can leave tomorrow morning. Rinoa will try to distract Squall."
"Why are you guys helping me? I was spying against the garden."
"Well, what you did was wrong, but we believe you have a good heart and you really love Selphie don't you?"
"With all my heart,"D.W. replied without hesitating. "Oh that reminds me,"D.W. said reaching into his pocket,"Give her this for me."
Quistis nodded taking the note, giving D.W. a hug, and then motioning for him to leave. D.W. took off not looking back and fighting the tears that were gathering in his eyes.

In Selphie's room...

Selphie was bauling into her pillow. She heard a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"she whimpered.
"Quistis."
"Come in,"she sniffed.
Quistis entered and sat on the edge of Selphie's bed.
"D.W.'s gone. Zell, Rinoa, and I helped him escape."
"What!? But he was a spy. Just a worthless son of a bitch bouny hunter!"Selphie yelled trying to be angry at him.
"You know you don't feel that way. You love him."
Quistis reached in her pocket and pulled out the note D.W. had given her.
"He asked me to give this to you."
Selphie took the note and read it, more tears coming to her eyes.

My dearest Selphie,

When you read this I will be gone. Out of your life forever. You don't need me or anybody because Selphie you are strong and you are amazing. And don't let anyone ever tell you different. I wish things could have been different. I wish we could have been together, but it worked out for the best because I would have just ruined your life. Please don't try to find me. Just remember that I will always love you.

Always in love,
D.W.

"Quistis, you've got to tell me where he is!"
"He didn't want you to know."
"Tell me!"Selphie screamed desparately.
"Alright."

Later in the woods between Balamb Garden and the Fire Cavern...

D.W. was sitting by his camp fire eating the food Zell had left him when he heard a rustle. He slowly walked towards the woods when a figure emerged.

To be continued...

Well we're at the home stretch. Later.
