Quistis shook the half-conscious Seifer until his baby blue eyes opened. "Is this hell?" Seifer asked groggily. "No this is the beach," Quistis said as she took a better look at him; she saw blood soaking through the tattered remains of his shirt. "Dang! Seifer you're bleeding," Quistis said her voice showing her distress and concern. "They did it," Seifer mumbled raising a finger and pointing in the direction the mob had gone. She pulled of his trench coat and the remains of his shirt and used the part of his shirt that wasn't bloody as a bandage.
She felt raindrops on her skin and scowled, 'Perfect timing,' she thought sarcastically. She looked around for some sort of shelter and saw a closed in fishing shed only a few feet away. She dragged the groggy Seifer to the shed and thought. 'I guess the only way to get back to Garden is to rant a Balamb car' Quistis thought as she ran towards the small town. She paid for the car with the last of her money and drove it to the beach.
She loaded the semi-conscious blonde into the backseat and set out for Balamb Garden. 'I wonder if I'll get in trouble if anyone finds out...No one will find out,' she told herself firmly. She arrived at Balamb Garden and smuggled Seifer into her room. Seifer immediately fell into Quistis's bed and fell asleep. 'Oh lucky me I get to sleep on the couch,' Quistis thought as she changed into her nightgown. She yanked some blankets out from the sleeping Seifer and made herself comfortable.
The next morning Quistis woke to Seifer's moans. "Where am I?" Seifer asked coming to his senses, his eyes wide until he spotted Quistis and then he smirked 'She won't turn me in,' he thought. "I see you're recovering," Quistis said trying to ignore the smug look plastered all over Seifer's tan face. 'And still full of confidence after all of this,' Quistis thought with a sigh. "I'm ok now," Seifer said trying to act innocent. "So let me guess the mob was after you because you used to be a sorceresses knight?" Quistis guessed. "Yep basically," Seifer said with a yawn, "I think my clothes need a washing," Seifer added as he looked down at himself. Quistis looked through her drawers and finally found a large lavender shirt for him to wear. "Put this on and I'll take your stuff to the laundry," Quistis ordered as she tossed him the long T-shirt.
Seifer went into the bathroom and changed into he shirt, 'Just my luck it's purple,' Seifer thought as he exited the bathroom with a flushed face. 'He looks so hot in that shirt,' Quistis thought. 'Dang! What the hell am I thinking,' Quistis corrected.
Quistis then exited the room with the clothes in hand. Seifer looked around and smiled 'I could get used to this treatment' 'But why did she save ME? And take me in?' Seifer thought, as his eyes grew thoughtful. Seifer hear a knock on the door, "Quistis! Are you in there?" Squall's voice asked from outside the door.
