Truth and lies. (Part three)
The corridor was dark and silent when Seifer came closer to his dormitory. Blue eyes looked around in the empty corridor and he yawned. The happenings of the day must have made him very tired.
''Hmm, everyone else must already be asleep.'' he thought as he walked along and turned his eyes to the windows, where moonlight was the only light at this time of night. Seifer felt stupid about the way he had acted today, but if people had their weak spots, then his love for Squall was his.
''I thought I heard something!'' he got alert as he noticed a slim shadow just a bit further away. Hyperion was on his belt, as always and now without thinking he grabbed it. He heard a loud crash and someone shouting.
''The beasts from the Training center must have escaped!!'' he thought as the hature filled his veins. Now was his chance to show that he too could be good in something. He smirked and pulled his sword out, running towards the direction where the crash came from. Only the stairs and then he would be there.
''Okay!! Time to kick your butts!!'' Seifer took his sword up and was just about to strike when he noticed. There was Rinoa Heartilly who was cuddling instructor Trepe, Quistis Trepe. Next to them was a flowerpot, which had fallen down. Both of the girls looked at Seifer with fear in their eyes. Rinoa turned red when she noticed that Quistis' arm was on her breast.
Seifer swallowed and looked puzzled. He lifted his eyebrows and placed his blade down. Now this was new, this was weird. Was Rinoa cheating on Squall with Quistis?
''Seifer, it's not how you think it is..'' Quistis tried to explain as she pulled herself away from Rinoa and turned to eye the beautiful blonde. Rinoa, who was still red, placed her eyes down and tried to avoid Seifer's eyes. Seifer didn't know what to think, he was too confused.
''Tell me then how it is!'' Seifer shouted, eyes full of hatred. Quistis remained calm, she just narrowed her look and took her hands on her hips.
''I love Rinoa.'' Quistis said it plain and simple. Seifer shook his head and eyes on his head grew even bigger, with a drop of his jaw he just started to look even more confused.
''Yeah, YOU love Rinoa, but as you know Ms. Heartilly happens to be with Squall Leonhart! And what would he say if he knew about you two?'' Seifer snarled and leaned on the corridor wall.
''He already knows about us! Besides what do you care about Squall?'' Quistis asked Seifer. She had turned like an over-protective cat to her kitties, and this kitty was Rinoa. Seifer got silent again. It was hard to say something to them, since he still felt unsure about his own feelings.
Silently Rinoa felt the crystal tears rolling down her cheek. She hadn't been honest, not with Squall, or anyone else. Quistis noticed her tears as she fell on her knees and started to hit the floor with the palm of her hand.
''What is wrong with you??'' Quistis whispered as she knelt beside her and started to hush her. Rinoa just shook her head and looked at the young instructor.
''Nothing, it's just that Squall.. well he doesn't know.''
Quistis started to look weird and Seifer was angry. Again Rinoa acted like the bitch he knew, she was a heart-breaker and she didn't care about anyone. She just took a boy or a girl and after she had had enough fun to play, she threw them away.
''This makes things even more complicated.. Seifer don't tell Squall, his heart might get broken.'' Quistis almost begged Seifer with her silent voice and wishful eyes. Now it was his chance to tell them.
''Like hell am I gonna tell him! I would like to, but like some people I care about others feelings.. I love him..'' Seifer sighed and smirked to them.
Rinoa blinked her eyes.
''Love is one funny thing..'' she thought. Never ever would she have guessed that Seifer loved Squall.. she had never thought about it. Well did she ever think before she acted or did she even have a brain?
''I guess that we have made enough noise for one evening. You guys do what you like but one thing I just have to say. Rinoa I hate you. You are a whore!''
He made things clear to her without even shouting. First time in his life he was able to control his temper. It was perhaps because he was tired and confused, or that he wasn't willing to wake up the whole Dormitory. He left towards his room and left Rinoa and Quistis there. He felt Rinoa watching her with a weird face. One thing was sure: he hated people like Rinoa.
Without expecting he bumped in to Squall who was wondering around in his leather pants. This made Seifer feel nervous. Would he be able to keep Rinoa's and Quistis' thing as a secret. He took a normal appearance on his face and tried to sneak away from Squall. But it was too late...
''Why such a sneaky walk Seifer? Have you perhaps done something bad?'' Squall snarled as he spotted Seifer sneaking along the corridor. People were awake at this time at night, how could it be possible?
Seifer stopped. Why! Why from all the people he had to be Squall who he came together with, and right now!? Seifer smiled nervously and played with his thumbs.
''I was here just taking a short walk before I go to bed. But hey, what do you do here?''
''I'm looking for Rinoa, have you seen her?''
Seifer looked shocked and Squall wondered why did he do so. Seifer gulped and Squall noticed his hands shaking.
''I haven't seen her since breakfast.''
''Oh, well if you see her tell me that I'll be expecting her in my Dormitory..'' Squall blinked and walked away. Seifer turned around to wonder after the headmaster's perfect ass. Oh why! he had lied to Squall, and why did he have to be there right now and looking like that!! Seifer ran the rest of the corridor, he was safe when he entered his room.
Just when he was going to bed he noticed that he wasn't tired anymore. That was strange, just a minute ago he would have been willing to fall asleep. Silently Seifer sneaked on his PC and entered the chat. He was surprised, because Cold-as-ice was also in chat. Seifer typed and waited for him to answer.
''Good night!''
''Good night? Are you already going to bed when you just arrived?'' Wrote the other.
''No, I can't sleep after everything what has happened today..''
''Oh! Well what could possibly be such a bad thing?''
''Lying, seeing a crime. This crime was against my loved one. But it made me hurt too because I can't tell him the truth..''
''Well that's bad.''
''How about you?''
''Hum, the one I love pushed me away again..''
''Not nice! Why does life have to be so unfair!''
''You can tell me that :( Life just goes on and nothing good happens. Say who do you love so much??''
''Why should I tell you? I dunno who you are or where you are.''
''Now say, I tell you where am I if you tell me who do you love ;) ''
''Okay, I love a person called Squall Leonhart.''
''...''
''What was that about?''
''...Nothing.. I just know him...and as for my answer I'm in Balamb garden.''
''Huh? ^_____^;; *sweatdrops* So am I''
''Really?? Could we meet sometime..?''
''Tomorrow? At midnight in the secret area?''
''Yeah! I'll be there!'' Wrote Cold-as-ice and left the chat.
Seifer turned off his computer and fell asleep. Butterflies were in his stomach. This Cold-as-ice, who could he possibly be? Anyone from this school who knew Squall? Well they all knew Squall, because he was the Headmaster. Seifer forgot his worries as he waited tomorrow.
