Chapter Two: Remembering
After Seifer had left in a huff and leaving Quistis very angry, she sat down at her desk again. She collected the tests to be graded.
'URGH! He makes me so angry sometimes! Why, oh hyne, why did I have to go and fall in love with someone whom I can absolutely hate sometimes?!'
She gathered her papers and began to walk to the cafeteria for dinner.
"What can I get you darling?"
"A salad and a cup of coffee."
"That will be 5 gil."
"Thanks." She said as she paid the cafeteria lady. She turned around and went to sit with the gang. ( Zell, Squall, Irvine, Selphie, Rinoa and Zell's girlfriend, Eliza)
"Hiya, Quisty!" Selphie said rather loudly as she saw her friend coming to sit down for dinner with them.
"Hi. Selphie."
"How are you today?" Irvine asked her with a wink. Selphie noticed and whacked him on the head.
"Hey! What was that for?!"
"Nothing.." Selphie said sweetly
"I'm doing okay.I just have so many SeeD tests to grade this weekend.." She said as she started to eat her salad.
"Come out with us to the club tomorrow night! It will be a lot of fun. And you certianly deserve some right now." Rinoa asked Quistis, pleadingly.
"Oh.I don't know."
"Please?! Pretty please? I won't ask you to help me with the festival committee for two months! How can you refuse that??!" Selphie pleaded with Quistis.
"Well.."
Just at that moment, Seifer walked into the cafeteria and was walking over to sit with the gang. Quistis noticed and gave him a smile. Everyone was completely confused. They sensed something wrong. No one got 'that' kind of smile out of her these days..not even them!
"Hi Seifer."
"Instructor." He nodded his head.
"Well, are you coming to the club tomorrow?" Selphie asked again.
".I guess so.." She finally gave in to her pleading.
"You are invited too, Seifer. If you want to come."
"Sure. Why not. There isn't anything to do around this damed place anyways." Seifer replied.
"Well, if you would excuse me. I have to go grade tests so that I can come tomorrow night.."
"Sure."
"Bye!" The whole group said in unison.
"OH! And Quistis! Me and Rinny are going to come over and help you pick out something to wear!"
"Well, I have to be going too. I'll see you all later."
Seifer rushed after Quistis who had a head start on him.

"Has anyone noticed how 'different' those two were around each other today?" Zell asked the group (or who was left of it)
"Yea..There is something very stange going on .." Squall said as he spoke for the first time that evening.

"HEY! QUISTIS!! WAIT UP!" Seifer yelled as he ran to catch up with her. He finally did when she had already reached her dorm.
"Yes Seifer." She said as she turned to look at him.
"..*pant*.I wanted.*pant* to ask you..*pant* something."
"Yes.." She said, giving him a little time to catch his breath.
" Do you remember when we all were at the orphanage with Matron?"
"Only bits and pieces of it. Why do you ask?" She was completely confused.
"Well.." He said as he pulled out his half of a sea shell that he still had after all this time.
"Do you remember our promise?" He let her think about it for a moment, so that she could search her memory. Well, what was left of it since the GFs had taken some of them.
"How could I forget?" She whispered as she pulled out her half of the sea shell and put it together with his. Seifer smiled as she said that. 'She didn't forget after all!' He was so pleased that he didn't give her the usual smirk. He truly smiled.
"Well, does it still hold true? Our promise?"
"Oh. Of course Seifer! You were really the only one that really understood me. And we were both a year older than the rest. And besides Seifer. Promises Are Forever."
"Thanks." He said as he put his half back into his pocket. "I just wanted to know."
"No problem, Seifer. If you ever, you know, need to talk. Let me know. I'll always be there for you."
"Thanks.." He softly replied as he began to walk away. Suddenly he turned to look back at her.
"Oh. And Quistis."
"Yes."
"You are still my best friend."
*and I forgot, To tell you. I Love you.
And the nights too long. I'm cold here, Without you.
I Grieve in my condition, For I can not find the words to say, I need you so..*
