{Ya… it was the weekend… and I didn't bother to work on the fic… I'm
sorry to everyone who had to wait… anyway, thanks for the reviews once
again!! It's very nice when people review!!! Keep them coming please!
Okay, last chapter… Squall proposed to Rinoa… and Quistis got upset… so she
started drinking… when she woke up… she was in … SEIFER'S room!!! Oh dear!
Anyway, continuing on…}
I sat up straight holding the blanket against my chest. Never would I have imagined myself in this position… never would I have imagined Squall proposing to Rinoa… never. I felt my eyes watery, and I just knew I was going to cry. (Nothing's going right in my life. Nothing. I wanted Squall… I wanted him… but now… he can never be mine. Why? Why? Why, of all people, he chose Rinoa… over me? Am I that bad? Will no one ever like me? Why am I always thinking about Squall? Especially at a time like this. SEIFER is sleeping right beside me… did I wish it was Squall?) I looked over to my left. Seifer was sleeping soundly. He looked so peaceful, so… friendly. (Strange… how Seifer is everyone's nightmare when he's wide awake, terrorizing people… yet, right now, I'm sitting beside his sleeping figure… where… I … strangely… somewhat… like… the idea. He seems to be at peace when he's sleeping. So calm, so gentle… so nice. Why am I like this?! This is totally wrong! Why can't I just make up my mind? Do I like Seifer better than Squall? Or am I still infatuated with that emotionless piece of crap?!? I can't believe it… 'emotionless piece of crap'? I have never said that about Squall… maybe it's a sign… that I don't like him… anymore… at least, as much…) My gaze was still locked on Seifer. The blanket only cover his lower half, revealing his chest. His muscular chest. I reached my hand over to touch his body. When my fingertips touched his skin, it sent shivers down my spine. I quickly pulled my hand away. (What the hell was I thinking? How could I do this?) But I couldn't stop staring at the masculine figure beside me. Something about him was too enchanting. I reached my hand to touch his body again, this time, I didn't pull away. I moved my hand lower to touch his abs. (He's… so strong. He's…) My thoughts diminished when Seifer started to move. I pulled my hand away quickly, just in time, as Seifer fluttered his eyes open.
"Morning baby." He yawned.
I didn't reply to his comment. I didn't know what to say or what to do, so I crept closer to the edge of the bed, away from him.
"What's wrong? Don't tell me you're afraid of me… especially what we did yesterday." He laughed. So typical of him. I don't understand what I see that's so good about him.
"What DID we do yesterday?" I asked, hoping we did nothing, though highly doubting it.
"Oh, we didn't do anything. Just because we're undressed and sleeping together on my bed doesn't mean we did something." He smirked, hinting some sarcasm to that. I gave him a blank stare before he continued talking.
"My dear, dear Instructor. Let me tell you a little story." He folded his arms behind his head and rested on them. I really wanted to slide right beside him and rest my head on his chest… but I didn't. "Once upon a time, there lived two VERY different people. One was a beautiful blonde Instructor, while the other, was thought to be an evil, vicious, power-craving male. Upon one fateful night, the two met. They were at a party, were the beautiful female's crush, proposed to her best friend. The happy couple, were the male's rival and ex. The blonde Instructor always loved that emotionless male, so it crushed her gentle heart when he rejected her out of his life. So, to ease her pain, she decided to lock herself in the bathroom and start drinking… a lot. After the party was long over, the handsome young male heard whimpering from a nearby bathroom. He crept closer and heard a young woman calling out two names. One belonged to him, and the other, to his rival. He tried to open the door, but it was locked. So he decided to break down the door. Which he succeeded and saw the blonde beauty lying on the ground, crying, and drinking. The male, feeling quite sorry for the woman, kneeled down beside her to see if she was alright. When the young lady saw him, she sat up, knocked him over, whispered his name into his ear, and began to kiss him passionately. Which caught him on surprise. The woman began unbuttoning his shirt, and when she finished, she began taking off her dress. It wasn't until she was half undressed and showing her beautiful physique did the male know what was going on. When he finally did, he gently pushed the lady off. He wasn't sure what he wanted to do, but obviously, this girl wanted him, right then and there. So he swept the half undressed girl off the ground and carried her into his room where they made love together." He smirked at me.
"No!" I gasped. "This cannot be…" I slide even closer to the edge of the bed.
"Believe it or not Instructor… that's what happened, and if you cannot bear the truth, well you'll find out soon."
"… no…" I was in shock. That couldn't have happened! (Seifer is just making this all up! But… how do I explain this? That I'm naked… and sleeping in his bed.) Tears began dripping out of my eye.
"Quistis… are you crying?" Seifer looked at me. Did he feel sorry for me? Or is he going to laugh in my face. "Don't cry sweetie… please don't cry." He leaned over to me and wiped the tears from my face. He… was… being nice to me…? This didn't quite make sense… or did he actually care about me? Despite his soothing words, the tears kept on coming.
"Why did this have to happen to me…?" I asked between sobs.
Seifer didn't say anything, but continued to wipe my tears. I looked him straight in the eye. His emerald eyes. He noticed me staring at him… and he looked back at me. I felt my cheeks burning up, and I stopped crying. His face was so close to mine. Again, part of me wanted to break this enchantment, but the other part wanted me to lean towards him and kiss him. I didn't know what to do. Until Seifer leaned in and kissed me. I sat there, unable to think. (… what should I do now? Should I kiss him back… or push him away?) My question was answered when I saw the time on his alarm clock. 10:56.
"Shit!" I screamed, pushing Seifer away. I ran out of the bed and started putting on my clothes that lay neatly on the desk. I didn't care if Seifer was watching me or not, my Instructor's Exam was in four minutes. When I finally finished dressing, I ran out the door towards my dorm.
* * *
"Quisty!" Selphie screamed from down the hall.
I had just finished writing my Instructor's Exam. All through the exam, all I did was think about Seifer. Which I bet made me lose focus, thus, I would fail the damn Instructor's Exam. I sighed loudly. (Stupid Seifer)
"What's wrong Quisty?" Selphie asked concerned.
"I don't think I did good of my exam. I think I might have failed." I looked down at the floor gloomily. Somehow, everything I looked at reminded me of Seifer. It really bugged me.
"Oh, don't talk like that Quisty! I bet you did wonderfully well!" Selphie encouraged. "Everyone's in the cafeteria waiting for you! Come on, let's go!" She tugged my arm.
* * *
"So how'd you do?" Zell asked me immediately after I sat down. Selphie sat right next to Irvine, and I took a seat beside Zell. Squall and Rinoa were nowhere in sight.
"Umm, I don't think I did too well…" I pessimistically replied.
"Awww, why not?" Irvine asked.
"… Couldn't concentrate." At that moment, the whole cafeteria hushed to a whisper. I looked back to see why. Seifer had just entered. He smirked that stupidly annoying smirk of his as he saw other students and SeeDs tremble in fear at the sight of him. So typical of Seifer.
"What the hell is he doing here?" I heard Zell angrily mumble.
"What's that Chicken-wuss? If you have something to say, just say out loud." I guess Seifer heard Zell.
"I said, GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE SEIFER! YOU DON'T BELONG HERE!" Zell screamed so loudly, the whole garden could probably hear him.
"You don't own the place… so you don't have the right to tell me to get out or not." Seifer laughed.
"Wanna bet? I'm going to talk to the headmaster right now." Zell stormed off. Irvine followed. Selphie shrugged at me, and ran after Irvine. I decided to follow them, who knew what they would do.
* * *
"Headmaster, not to be rude or anything… but what were you smoking when you let Seifer back into the garden?" Zell shouted as he pushed open the doors into the office, leaving Xu clueless as ever.
"Zell, calm down my child." Matron was in the office, and Cid was nowhere to be seen.
"Matron, I don't understand. How could Cid let Seifer back into the garden?" He slammed his fist against the wooden desk.
"He didn't… I did." Matron looked at me curiously.
"WHAT?! How could you let… let… that THING back in?! Matron? What were you thinking?! Were you thinking of any of us when you decided that stupid decision? I can't believe you allowed that!" Zell was angrier than ever.
"Quistis, Irvine, Selphie, would you please go back to your dorm rooms or somewhere please? I would like to talk to Zell alone for a minute." Matron asked us politely.
The three of us walked out the door and into the elevator. No one spoke a word until we arrived to the main floor.
"I don't get it… how DID Seifer get back in?" Irvine asked curiously. Selphie opened her mouth to say something, but I quickly placed my hand over her mouth.
"I recommended Seifer to come back…" I began, but before I could finish, Irvine began shouting at me.
"WHAT?! How could you do that Quistis? This is outrageous! This is… confusing… this is…" Selphie stomped on his foot to shut him up. I could feel my eyes getting watery. (Why did everyone think Seifer was so bad…?)
"IRVINE!! SHUT THE HELL UP!!! It's not Quistis' fault! She was only trying to repay Seifer…" Selphie mumbled loud enough that only Irvine and I could hear her.
"What?"
"Seifer saved her life back in Deling… She only thought it was right to help Seifer…" Selphie sighed. I never thought I had such a great friend. I rushed towards her and gave her a big hug as tears fell from my eyes. Some were because I knew I had such a great friend… and some were because everyone hated Seifer…
"I really need time alone…" I finally announced and headed to my dorm room. I opened the door and walked in. I was about to close the door, when a gloved hand pushed it open. I jumped back, as I watched Seifer come into my room, shutting the door behind me.
"What are you doing here?!" I demanded.
He didn't say a word but pushed me onto my bed. He moved my bra and tank top strap to the side and began kissing me.
"Don't Seifer…" I pushed him away weakly. "I'm having a bad day…"
"You're not making much of an attempt to push me away… and besides, this'll make you feel better."
He continued kissing me. First my forehead, then my nose, my lips, and my neck. Going lower and lower…
{Seifer!!! What the hell are you thinking?! Oh my!! What happens next? Sorry it took me so long to get this chapter done … Anyway, please review and if you STILL like this story… please wait for the next few chapters…! Thanks! ^.^}
