Chapter 8

"Hyne you are beautiful." Squall stepped forward and brushed his chest against me. Who the hell is he kidding? He's the one that's beautiful. I couldn't speak. The shock of his actions was too great. My heart stopped beating.

"I know why you came back, I know how you feel about me," he paused long enough to place a soft kiss on the corner of my mouth. "and I know I've been waiting for you."

Too much at once. I couldn't speak, I didn't want to. He was kissing me! Hyne. his mouth was so warm, soft, demanding. I moved on instinct. I crushed him to me, plundering his mouth. Taking from him the kiss he offered.

When I pulled my lips from his, his face was flushed, his lips swollen.

"Squall I was wondering if you could look over a few of these. Oh holy Hyne!" Quistis jumped when she looked up from the pile of papers in her arms. "I'm. sorry." She cleared her throat. "Do you want me to go? I can come back at a better time."

Wait, no freaking out, no panic, just 'I'm sorry'? I don't get it. But Squall wasn't fazed. "Um. no. that's okay Quisty. You can come in now." He blushed a little when he looked at me.

"Well." now I was feeling awkward. "I'm gonna go then okay." I released Squall from my arms and walked out of his office. I had to talk to Selphie!



"You mean, SQUALL kissed you first? Wow. I never thought he'd have the balls." We were sitting on the dock in Balamb. My favorite place to just sit.

"You don't sound too shocked there Selphie, are you holding out on information on me?" I gave her a menacing look. I had a feeling, now that my mind had been given a chance to clear, that she had been giving Squall information the whole time.

"Umm.. No." She looked away from me. She's a terrible liar. She never looked you in the eye if she was lying.

"Admit it. You've been playing cupid, haven't you?" I poked her in the side.

"Well, after Squall found out that you and I became friends, he started asking me all kinds of questions about you. And I figured out that he liked you. I couldn't tell you though, threatened with death. And you know Squall! If I'd a told you then he'd a killed me!"

"So you've been playing both ends?"

"Well, it was funny watching you sneak around him for the past week when you were here. How'd things go on the mission?"

"Well, I got her back. But someone's been keeping her up. I don't know what to make of the situation. But I think Squall has a plan. "

"He loves you, you know that don't you?"

"Does he?" I asked absentmindedly.

"Yeha, he's the one who kept up Hyperion."



A/N: well? What you think? They kissed at least. And maybe Selphie's not telling other things. Haven't decided yet. But let me know what you people think. Maybe next chapter I'll do something a little different that I was origionally planning
