I couldn't believe what happened between us. How could this be? Seifer and I... affectionate toward each other? This is crazy. This is stupid. This is…love? Could it be love? It couldn't be!! Seifer? That egotistic, bothersome man?
I laid on my bed, staring at the ceiling above me. All I could think of was that…kiss. The kiss. This feeling…this feeling that I felt when his lips touched mine…is it love? Or is it just lust that had taken over? I closed my eyes and spread my arms across the bed. Sigh. Turning my head to the side, I stared at the clock. 9:30 p.m. It's late. I cannot sleep!
"Ugh…maybe I'll just take a walk."
The corridors of the Garden were so quiet…so peaceful…and not to mention eerie. I sneaked to the 2nd floor, trying my best to avoid those creepy men with the crazy robes and hats that guarded the place. Sighing, I walked to the balcony that lead to a splendid view of the outdoors. It's getting cold. I wrapped my arms around my body. Ah, this is peaceful. The heavens were pretty, with the stars that shone brightly in the night sky. I inhaled the fresh night air, and leaned against the railing. This is what I needed, a nice, quiet moment for myself. I stood there, completely drowned in a placid mood.
A warm feeling came across my waist, and tightened around it. I quickly opened my eyes and looked down for what it was. It was a pair of hands. Gloved hands.
I turned around, the hands still around my waist. My eyes locked into a pair of concerned eyes…emerald-colored eyes.
"Seifer? What are you doing here?"
"Couldn't sleep. What are you doing here?" his voice was in a sexy whisper.
"I… couldn't sleep. That's all. I just needed a walk, and I came by here," I replied softly. His arms pulled my body closer to his. Oh, Hyne.
Seifer looked intently at me. "Quistis, I want to tell you something."
"W-what is it, Seifer?"
He pushed me softly against the railing, his grip tightened around my waist.
"I…I love you."
I could feel my cheeks burning, and it turned into a brilliant shade of red. "Seifer…I…" I practically melted into those eyes. Abruptly, I lunged at him in a hungry, passionate kiss. Taken back by surprise, Seifer returned the kiss as well. I wrapped my arms around him, letting his hands roam around my body. This time, I pulled him closer to me, deepening the kiss. His tongue roamed around, and I did it as well. The kiss grew deeper, more passionate…I ran my fingers through his hair. I groaned softly, letting Seifer take over. I didn't notice it until I began to take off his coat. He looked at me for a moment while I was busy taking his coat off. His coat was off, and I persisted on taking off his shirt. Panting wildly, I hastily took his shirt off and revealed his built body. I ran my hand across his chest and his arms, sending him a tingling feeling with my fingers. I pressed my lips against his, hard. And slowly, I came down to his chest and licked it from the bottom to the top. The moment was erotic, and Seifer moaned softly. I could feel his hands down on my thighs as we mingled our lips together.
"Quistis…" Seifer whispered suddenly. I parted my lips from his, taking in fast breaths for air. "I love you, I want you."
"Seifer…I…" I embraced him. He put his strong arms around me, and held me tight. I closed my eyes, and felt tears forming. "I…I'm sorry." I pulled out of his embrace and ran out of the balcony. I could hear him calling to me.
"Quistis!"
