***********************************************************************

Morning arrived, I wake up to the morning lights, the smell of the party was still there, but I didn't care that much about it. I try to get up and reach for my trench-coat, but I could feel extra weight dragging me down. I took a quick glance to see what I might've been...

(Quistis!?! What're you doing here! Aren't you supposed to be in your dorm!?!) I was in a panic... although I was still completely dressed, I can't let people see me like this! It will desroy all of my hard work to keep all the other students disciplined, setting yet another bad example, but it couldn't be helped... she kept my inner self warm... I layed back down...

"S-seifer," she whispered out in a weary voice, "where are we?"

(Oh god, she's awake, what am I gonna do when I tell her? She's in my bed, next to me, in this time of day, almost late for class... what am I going to do!?!) "My room..."

"W-what?"

"Its," I look at my watch, "7 a.m."

"Oh," she held me even tighter, "please wake me in thirty minutes."

"Sure..."

(She seems awfully calm... this is perfect... yesterday must've worn her out, I can't fall asleep... not yet. Wait for thirty minutes...) I discipline myself to keep my eyes awake as her body began to warm up... she was asleep, she was calm, her tears have evaporated from my coat... I lied there on the small bed looking up to the ceiling, a dull, plain ceiling.

(Why yesterday? Out of all days, I notice her yesterday? Maybe, maybe I've reached 'that' point... Damnit... Squall beat me to it again!) I almost clenched my fist (I better not... It might wake her.)

...

...

...

The day went on, Quistis has finally woken up, and continued her day, I sat up along with her.

"So," I started, "want to get breakfast?"

She rubbed the weariness off her eyes, "Sure," then she realized something, "what about Fujin?"

(Fujin? Oh right, I nearly forgot... oh right!) "They won't be back till late afternoon."

She gave me a relieved smile, "Oh, okay."

I sat up and offered my hand out, I pulled her up and we started to walk side-by-side out of the dorm. Then I started my dull interrigation I didn't have much of a choice since I'm not that good with words, "So, how do you like being instructor?"

Her face shied away, "I got demoted..."

"What?"

She looked at me, "I'm just a SeeD now..."

(Sorry, I can't see you as anything else other than an instructor... for God sakes you're waaaay better than Xu is on this job!) I looked at her and try to cheer her up with a somewhat sly remark, "At least you still surpass me in Garden's rank, instructor."

She gave me a cheerful smile... the one Rinoa uses, and she slapped me lightly on the shoulder, "Shut up..."

"Alri~ght..."

She slapped me again, "Oh, you!"

We laughed it out a bit and approached the line at the cafeteria, I quickly grabbed a newspaper and lined up next to her. We approached the front and we ordered our usuals. She laughed at me a bit.

(What did I do?)

"Haha," she giggled a bit as we sat down, "who orders hot dogs for breakfast?"

"Oh," I looked at the hot-dog and looked at her coffee and smiled back, "Its what keeps me up throughout the rest of the day."

We laughed a bit and went back to eating and going through our morning routines, as I was reading, I could hear crumples on the newspaper... and then some tearing... I looked at what was torn out, she took my 'Love is...' clip!

"Wait that's mi..." (Uh oh... huuuuuuuge mistake!)

"Oh?," She looked at me with a sneaky smile with her eyes half squinted, "How cute... you actually collect these?"

(Geez, why am I blushing? I place them next to autographed pictures of the 'sorceress' in that movie) "Sort'of!"

Then we were interrupted, "Almasy," it was one of the facaulty members the ones with the queer yellow masks), "Please report to the disciplinary hall."

(I nearly forgot, oh well...) "Sorry, instructor, I'll see you later."

She looked at me with a plain suprised expression as I walked to the disciplinary hall... I sat there as everyone looked at me in surprize, due to the fact that I sent most of them here anyway. I sat there and went to sleep, leaning my foot on the table with the other crossed above it, leaning on the wall behing me and took a snooze. When I awoke, it was already 3 p.m. everyone left, I felt very bored, so I started to read the newspaper that was still in my hand... I started to look up the list of all the sent SeeDs so I'd know who's sent away so I don't have to look out for them, that and I'm looking up the SeeDs sent to Timber. My eye's widened when I saw the 3 names that I didn't want want to see on the place that desprately needed elite support... Squall, Zell, and Selfie was sent to Timber, they sent 3 fresh-greenhorns on an elite mission!.... I nearly fell off the seat as I jumped out of it... I ran, to Timber I go!

Sorry I haven't finished this... I wanted people to like Mysaal Feries so much... (If you scramble up Mysaal Feries Lluqas, you'll get Almasy, Seifer Squall) and I made it sound sooooo dull... the story was interesting and I was sooo caught up... oh well... Sorry this was so short.

On the other note, it would be a good idea to download the song by Sarina Paris "Dreamin of You." to get the mood of this story.
