Chapter 9 - Zell I need sleep!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zell made us all go to the Cafeteria to find out if they were selling the all famous hotdogs he loves. We entered the Cafeteria and grabbed the table Selphie and Irvine were sitting at. As for Zell he went straight to the Cafeteria lady.

"What brings you here?" Selphie said as she was getting herself comfortable in Irvine's lap.

"Zell" Squall said.

"Hotdogs!" Zell said running back with one in each hand. "God has answered my prayers!" He grabbed a chair, sat down, took the ketchup and mustard bottle and squeezed it all over the hotdogs.

"I see" Irvine said moving away from the ketchup and mustard being spattered in the air.

"Hey I got to go." Quistis said getting up from her seat.

"Where you going?" Selphie asked.

"Umm... I got lots of papers to mark... It'll keep me quite busy so... see you guys tomorrow at the party?"

"Sure thing" Selphie said and Quistis walked away. "Is it me or does it seem like she's up to something?"

( .:! fast forward to next day -they're just going to talk about there life and shit so i rather speed it up to the next day- !:. )

It's so noisy this morning! I though to myself. I took my other pillow and slammed it on my face so I didn't have to listen to Zell talk in the other room. He is so loud! ...but it didn't work. I grabbed my blanket and covered my face to see if it helped drain out the sound... it was no use. I got off my bed and pushed the hair away from the front of my face. I could barely see. I grabbed my robe and put it on. Not tying it because it was so hot. I slumped to Squall's room and knocked on the door. Then leaned against the wall to see if I can fall asleep. The door opened.

"Hey Rinoa" Zell said opening the door. "You look like a mess. Did you get any sleep?" Zell asked. I gave him a murderous glare.

"You... you..." I pushed him against the wall with my hand about to choke him. "You're ruining my sleep!!!"

"Isn't it supposed to be beauty sleep?" Squall asked.

"Not for me. I already look good." I looked at Zell and gave him the sting eye. "You need to shut up Zell! You're keeping me awake in the other room!" I yelled and let him go.

"Nice lingerie!" Zell said giving me a full glance at whet I was wearing. I rubbed my eyes and backed away from Zell. I felt the sudden urge to go to sleep. Then I fell on the floor. Falling asleep.

(Squall's point of view)

Rinoa fell on the floor. I got up and moved to her. "Looks like she fell asleep" I told Zell and moved Rinoa on to my bed to sleep.

"I can't believe she has that lingerie top! It's in Victoria Secret article, page 7, letter B, the Stretchable Chantilly-lace top for $286! But her gray drawstring shorts really don't go." Zell said.

"Ok... I expected this from Irvine not you"

"Sorry about that. Just surprised she got something so expensive"

"Her dad's rich Zell" I told him.

"…I knew that…" Zell said and sat on my chair. I sat on the edge of the bed leaving space for Rinoa.

"She's looks ...nice when she sleeps" I said.

"Really? So tell me man, what's with you and Rinoa?" Zell asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Looks like you guys have a little somethin, something goin on" Zell said with a proud look in eyes.

"No… there's nothing going on… nothing at all…" I told Zell watching Rinoa breath in and out instead of snoring. She really looked more endearing when she slept. I smiled. She for some reason makes me smile.

"Yo, what you thinkin?" Zell asked swerving in his chair.

"…" I didn't answer him.

"You know what I've been bothering you enough. I'm going to go see Irvine. So talk to you later." Zell said leaving the room and waving goodbye with a single wave.

"Yeah… later"

I looked at Rinoa. Took my blanket and covered her up. Ok… so I kind of tucked her in. Doesn't mean anything. I sat against the wall and took out a rock and started sharpening my gunblade. I stopped sharpening after a while. I dropped the rock and peeked at Rinoa. She was sleeping like a baby. I ran my finger against the gunblade and slit my finger unintentionally. I wiped away the blood and put my head against the wall. I closed my eyes for a little snooze just until Rinoa would wake up.
