When Quistis returned to Garden, she began to first notice the change. Guys she had never seen were pulling out chairs for her to sit in. There was a bouquet of flowers in her mailbox. Irvine wouldn't stop staring at her. Zell offered her his hot dog, and even Headmaster Cid tried to grab her butt in the hallway. She didn't know what to do...until she saw Squall. He looked completely puzzled as Nida and Zell told him how bad they wanted Quistis. She saw Irvine return, shoving a few pairs of her underwear in his pocket. The girls were trying to talk to their boyfriends, but they weren't paying any attention to them.
Suddenly, a mob charged at her, and she made a run for the elevator. She slammed the button for the doors to close but Headmaster Cid was about to come in until someone grabbed him by the back of his vest, and pulled him back. She looked up to see Squall stepping into the elevator just as the doors closed. He turned to face her then, his face a mixture of sadness and confusion.
"What the fuck is going on here?" Squall shouted. Quistis reached for the button that said, "stop" and pressed it hard. The elevator stopped...she was safe...unless Squall wanted to kill her.
"Uhhhhh..." Quistis began, but he cut her off.
"First, Rinoa dumps me two days ago, says that she never really liked me, just wanted to make Seifer jealous. Then, Irvine's walking down the hallway-sniffing women's underwear, which I find out later is yours. Then, Zell's sayin he wants you more than a hot dog. Now, I can't even get on a friggin elevator, without being attacked by a bunch of guys! Now I want a fucking explanation!" Squall finished his uncharacteristic shouting, shut up, and leaned up against the wall.
"I'm sorry about Rinoa." she said.
"...Whatever..."
"I didn't do that! I swear... I drank the potion today! That was two days ago! Ack!" Quistis groaned, and hit her head on the wall a few times.
"What potion?" asked Squall, who had returned his deep voice to practical monotone.
"This red bottle I picked up a few hours ago. It said 'drink this and the one you desire will come to you'! I didn't think this was going to happen!" she shouted.
"You and Headmaster???" Squall said, with a little laugh.
"NOOOOOOOOO! It worked in reverse, I've got everyone but the one I want!" Quistis shouted, and it echoed in the small elevator.
"And who might that be?" Squall asked. Now, it was Quistis' turn to be the silent one.
*Aw, what the heck? * she thought to herself. "You."
Squall was totally silent. When Quistis finally turned to see him, she was surprised to find him next to her, face to face. She was even more astonished to see him lean down, and feel the softness of his mouth pressed against hers. She closed her eyes, and kissed him back. He pulled her closer, and slid his tongue into her mouth, deepening the kiss. When he finally pulled away, they were both breathless. He smiled down at her, and stroked her face.
"Looks like you've got me after all." he said. Quistis looked sad then. "What did I say?" he asked her.
"It's not real...it's the potion."
"No, it's not."
"Huh?"
"Unless you used the potion almost a year ago, then it's not the potion."
"Oh...what?"
"You've had me all along, Quisty." he said. Quistis smiled at this. She was still smiling as he leaned down and kissed her again.
