Broken Hearted

*Disclaimer* Don't own anything

*Since Squall and Rinoa are together, I'm going to mess around with the other unknown couples of the game*

" Evil as plain as the scar on his face

Do not forget what we cannot forgive

And He is not one of us

He has never be one of us."

Chapter 14

Not one of us

The entire company was around the table during breakfast, everyone grabbing what they could, cause in seconds it would be gone. Squall and Rinoa on one side, Zell, Quistis on the other, and Irivine and Selphie spots were empty at the moment, they went to go get more food or something. Squall drank a little bit of his coffee, put it down and looked at Quistis. She was staring at her breakfast with a blank expression on her face. Squall frowned slightly watching her, gently nudge her untouched food. Poor Quistis, she must really love Seifer? I mean she looks so miserable. I don't get it. Squall looked at Rinoa and smiled slightly. He owed a lot of things to the group of friends sitting around him, one major one was the fact that he and Rinoa were back together, like they should be. Everyone was mostly happy, everyone but Quistis. So with a heavy sigh, Squall knew what he had to do. Repair the favor, even though it went against everything that Squall stood for, but he agreed with himself that he would help Quistis and Seifer get back together. Not for Seifer, oh hell no, not for Seifer. For Quistis and only Quistis. Squall gripped his fork in his hands, he squeezed it tightly until his hand was white. Rinoa looked at Squall's face then down at his hand and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Are you ok?" She asked watching him carefully, Rinoa always worried about Squall. Squall just smiled at her releasing the fork.

"I'm fine Rin, I just made my mind up about something." He nodded to her, then let his eyes travel to Quistis. Rinoa nodded once understanding. Quistis wasn't paying attention to the silent deal Rinoa and Squall had made with each other, she was busy watching Seifer talk to Fujin and Raijin, he nodded once and bite the top of his glove. Quistis tilted to her head to the side watching the three of them talk, it puzzled her. Figures moved in front of her, Irivine and Selphie.

"Hiya!" Selphie waved and sat down with Irivine who gave a low grunt. Irivine wasn't the cheeriest person in the morning, when he had his coffee he was normal, but without it he was a pistol. Quistis glanced back to where Seifer and his buddies had been, they weren't there. Quistis sighed slightly disappointed. She heard a chair push back and shuffling, she turned and saw that Seifer was in front of the table now, with Fujin and Raijin right beside him. Zell was on his feet, Squall was turned slightly as if protecting Rinoa, and Irivine was up on his feet his hand on his gun handle.

"I'm not over there anymore Quistis..." Seifer smirked slowly watching Quistis blush furiously at the fact that Seifer knew she had been watching him. Zell stomped his feet. Seifer jerked his head toward Zell glancing up and down looking at him.

"And what are you going to chicken Wuss, stomp me to the ground?" Seifer smirked as Raijin leaned back laughed then leaned forward again. Squall just stood in front of Seifer his eyes glaring toward Seifer. Seifer looked at Squall and raised his eyebrows.

"What are you staring at?" Seifer snapped. Irivine was the one who answered the question.

"Leave Seifer, you don't belong.." Irivine growled, Selphie stood up. Seifer just smiled and opened his arms.

"I just wanted to eat breakfast with some friends.." Seifer laughed then Zell cut his laughter off.

" Don't... you don't belong, and about eating with us, heh, you've never been one of us.." Zell snapped raising his fists. Seifer just narrowed his eyes to Zell, then looked at Quistis and nodded.

'What do you think hmm?" He asked smiling slightly. Squall spoke up now.

"Leave her alone, she has nothing to do with anything.. you don't belong Seifer." Squall nodded looking back at Quistis. Quistis looked down.

"I don't care about you guys, Quistis what about you, do you want me to stay?" Seifer tilted his head, he looked at her, Quistis saw a need in his eyes, he needed her to say yes, he needed her. But then again something flashed into her mind, a mental picture of what he did to Rinoa.

"I can't forgive you Seifer! I Can't FORGIVE what I can't FORGET!" Quistis screamed and ran out of the room. Seifer's eyes followed her, he looked like a sad and lost puppy dog. Seifer shook his head, knowing he let himself open, he stood up straight praying no one saw. Squall half smiled, he saw, he saw pain in Seifer's eyes. So he is human Squall watched Seifer and the others walk away. Zell looked at Squall and blinked.

"What just happened?" He asked looking toward the open door where Quistis use to be. Squall looked at Rinoa and nodded.

"We have to help them..." Squall muttered looking around the table.

"Help who?" Selphie asked.

"Quistis and Seifer." Rinoa said quietly. Zell pounded his fist against the table, sending a couple of dishes into the air.

"I will not help Seifer!" Zell shouted glaring at Squall.

"I Don't want to help Seifer either! I'm not doing it for Seifer, I'm doing it for Quistis!" Squall shouted back. Zell narrowed his eyes not saying anymore. Irivine looked at Seifer and shook his head.

"I hope this crap ends soon guys, you know?" He muttered under his breath.
