"Who are you?" Nina asked the man. He was very tall. He had blond hair, a scar on his face, and wore a grey trench coat.
"Thinking about that chicken-wuss, aren't you?" He asked, completely ignoring the girl.
(Chicken-wuss? Who's a chicken-wuss? Could he be talking about Zell? But how did he know? Wait, maybe I'm just jumping to conclusions, after all, I did stare at Zell as he ran away. So this guy must be guessing....) Nina thought.
"Who are you?" She continued to ask.
"I can help you get him." Seifer crouched down beside her and grabbed her arm tightly. "I'll help you, and you'll help me."
"Seifer! Get your hands off her!" Quistis ran towards them. Seifer immediately let go. "Nina, are you alright?"
"I hope so..." She mumbled.
"Instructor, I was looking all over for you!" Seifer grinned.
"I'm sorry, but I'm a little busy." Quistis helped Nina up. "Where'd Zell go?"
"That chicken-wuss ran after his girlfriend." Seifer laughed. "It's amazing that girls actually like that chicken-wuss."
"I would very much appreciate it if you don't give my students such cruel nicknames."
Seifer grabbed Quistis' arm and looked her straight in the eye. "Instructor, I still have to invite you to dinner."
(So, Seifer likes Quistis... could that possibly be what he wanted me to help him with?) Nina thought as Quistis helped her to the cafeteria.

"Nina, this is Squall, Rinoa, you already know Zell, and this is Trina." Quistis introduced the `gang' to her the next morning in the cafeteria. Squall and Rinoa looked up and nodded, then continued chatting among themselves. Zell, as usual, was stuffing hot dogs into his mouth. Trina on the other hand, stood up and stuck her hand out. Nina grabbed it, and they shook hands.
"Hi, I'm Trina, Zell's GIRLFRIEND." She said, stressing the word `girlfriend'.
(Not for long you aren't.) Nina thought as she smiled innocently. (He's gonna be MINE, bitch.) She sat down and started slowly to eat her breakfast.
"So, Trina, how long have gone out with Zell?" Nina asked.
"Ummm, about couple years..." Trina lied.
"Couple years? What are you talking about? I only met you a year ago." Zell said with his mouth full of hotdogs.
Trina's face turned red. (Stupid girl... think he really likes you? Well I've got news for you... it seems like he doesn't even care. I bet he'd rather marry a hotdog than you) Nina giggled out loud by accident.
"You know it's not very nice to laugh at someone." Quistis remarked.
(Bitch. Trying to take MY Zell away from me?! Think again!) Trina thought wickedly.
Nina stood up, excused herself, and hopped on one foot out of the cafeteria. (I can't take this any more. I don't even know why! Zell isn't even him... why am I getting so upset?) She continued to hop down the corridor, when suddenly, one of the doors opened and a hand grabbed her.

"Zell, can you take me shopping later on today?" Trina asked her `boyfriend' who was still stuffing hotdogs into his mouth.
"Ummm, can't busy. Must go to training centre." Zell replied.
"YOU ALWAYS GO TO THE TRAINING CENTRE!!! DON'T YOU EVEN CARE FOR ME ANYMORE?" She screamed and stormed out of the cafeteria. Zell watched as she left, then continued eating his hotdogs.
"Zell, do you even love Trina?" Quistis asked him.
"Sure." Was what he managed to mumble out.
"Doesn't look like you really care for her. Are you going out with her only because she likes you?" She continued to ask.
"Sure." He replied again.
"Are you even listening to what I'm saying?!" Quistis began to get annoyed.
"Sure."
"Zell, you're a complete fool."
"Sure." He replied once again.
"Oh hyne. There's no use talking to you." Quistis sighed and walked out of the cafeteria.
(I wonder, does Nina actually like him? But what good does she see in a hotdog craving pig? I just don't understand, how could...) Quistis' thoughts were interrupted by a high-pitched screech. (....that's Nina!) Quistis thought as she began running towards the scream. (it's coming from Seifer's room! What could he possibly be doing to her?!) Quistis pushed the door to Seifer's room open and saw...
"Thinking about that chicken-wuss, aren't you?" He asked, completely ignoring the girl.
(Chicken-wuss? Who's a chicken-wuss? Could he be talking about Zell? But how did he know? Wait, maybe I'm just jumping to conclusions, after all, I did stare at Zell as he ran away. So this guy must be guessing....) Nina thought.
