Squall stared thoughtfully out of the window in his office, as he
waited for Rinoa to get ready for dinner. He hadn't thought that
leaving Laguna would be this hard. Ever since that day that he'd
stormed out of his apartment, he'd had a dull ache in his heart. An
ache that seemed to get bigger with every passing day that he was
apart from Laguna.
"Damn aggravating man..." he muttered, as he shook his head, trying
to rid himself of all the memories, "I can't get away from you, even when
we're a world apart..."
"...Squall?" a soft voice called, breaking Squall from his reverie.
He turned to find Rinoa standing there, "Sorry... I was thinking..."
Rinoa smiled and took his hand, tugging him towards the
door, "That's okay! Let's go! I'm starved!!" Squall nodded, as he let
himself be dragged out the door, and thought, "Take care of yourself,
idiot..."
(All right.. this next part is gonna be in script form.. just cause it's a bitch to write out any other way. ^___^ My Laguna muse took over the idea and ran with it... Scene takes place in a bar, outside of Esthar)
Laguna:(trudges in and sits at the bar, sighing heavily) Bartender: What'll it be, mister? Laguna: Scotch.. straight up... make that a double... (leans his chin in his hand and munches half heartedly at the pretzels) Bartender hands him the drink, and Laguna downs it in one gulp, grimacing slightly. Laguna: another... 7 drinks and 3 pretzel bowls later... Laguna: and THEN *hic* He just waltzed into MY apartment and punched me! I mean *hic* What kinda love ish that! Gimme another one a those drinks kid... Bartender: (looks worried) ummm. I think you've had enough, sir.. Laguna: NONSENSE! You think I Can't Hold my *hic* Liquer? (grabs another drink and downs it. Then breaks into very loud sobs) I had it so good! What happened? Where did it go wrong? I have a great well paying job! I own a country! I had the love of my life! Sure he was *hic* my son, but that didn't matter! Then he just up and left me for that cow he dares to call a girlfriend. (hits his head on the bar. as a girl tries to walk around him he grabs her hand) I have some advice for you, little girl! Never fall for an army guy! *breaks into more uncontrollable crying, as the terrified girl, runs out the door, bumping into Squall and Rinoa.) Girl: hey... Watch out, there's some drunk guy in there rambling about how his boyfriend dumped him... Squall: (raises an eyebrow and gently leads Rinoa in, only to find a hysterical Laguna at the bar) oh Hyne... Laguna: (having moved to an angry/miserable hysterical stage) Well.. who needs him, anyway?! Sure I was madly in love with him! Sure, he was the best thing in my life! Sure he was my reason to live! But ya know what! That doesn't matter anymore! And you can all mark my words on that!! (points around the room, then his gaze falls on Rinoa and Squall) Even yo... oh... shit... Squall: (looking very severe, with Rinoa clinging to his arm) Hello President Loire... Laguna: (wide-eyed) Squa... (promptly passes out, hitting the floor) Squall: (looks at the bartender) Where's your phone? Bartender: (takes out a phone from behind the bar, wide-eyed) Here.. Squall: (nods in thanks and dials a number, waiting)... Hello Kiros?
