Riona saw her bags beside her bed and started unpacking. She folder her clothes and set them neatly in her dresser drawers. Seifer went over and took the desk, he put it on his side and started putting his things in it. Riona was about to protest but for all she knew he owned the desk. Anyways she had brought her own desk.sorta. It was a little surface area on wheels, and it had another smaller surface area that would move up and down and you could also make it so it tilted. The desk also had a little drawer that could only fit some papers in it but was still useful. She unfolded it and then unfolded a chair and put it beside it. Then Riona put her notebooks and schoolbooks on, in or beside the chair. Then she started decorating her half of the room. She put a rainbow tie-dyed blanket over the ugly colored blankets on her bed. She stuck the pillow in a light blue pillowcase. Put a few posters on the walls and few beanie babies on her bed. Ya know like a regular room. She still had a few things in her bags but she sat down on her bed and looked around. It was good for now. Seifer was putting his things away also, but not very neatly. It was total silence. Riona wished he would say something or she could put music on or something! The total Silence was killing her. But then again she didn't know if she would like the silence better than talking. Seifer also sat on his bed finished. "So your that Heartily girl huh? The one who ratted me out for Squall?" Seifer asked. "Mine name is Riona, and I don't know either of you what was I supposed to do pick the one I liked best and lie? All I did was tell the truth!" "My name is Seifer, you got it right before," "thanx" Riona said sarcastically. Seifer looked like he was about to tell her off but was stopped by a knock on the door. Riona knew she should be nicer to him, but he didn't seem like a nice guy. As far as she knew he went around insulting people's dead siblings, making fun of out fits amd starting fights. It was Irvine and Selphie. "We're going to go down to the game room, want to check it out Riona?" Irvine asked. "Definitely.we have a game room?" Selphie giggled, "yep! I mean we're living here they have to give us some kind of luxury" So Riona, Selphie, and Irvine went down to the game room. There weren't too many people in it. The were a few arcade games, a ping-pong table, pinball, a pool table, and foos ball table. They decided to play pool. Selphie and Riona against Irvine. Riona had never played before and Selphie wasn't too good at it. "No, no, no! Here let me help you," Irvine said and came around the pool table put his hands over Riona's and showed her how to shoot pool, giving them a one ball lead. Riona felt very uncomfortable and looked up at Selphie who laughed. "Thank you Irvy!" She said sarcastically, "You are trying to get me jealous but I know you too well now," Irvine sighed and on the next turn showed Selphie how to do it. Riona laughed and realized she'd be getting that a lot from Irvine but none of it meant anything. The room started getting crowded. Irvine won. Quistis walked in. "Hey Quisty!" Selphie hollered. Quistis walked over to them. "You want to be on Riona's team?" Irvine asked. "Uh.. sure. Who are you all bunked with?" She asked as she set up the triangle. Quistis had obviously done this before. They told her. "Cool, I'm bunked with this girl called Katy, and then in the other room there is Squall and Fujin,". Riona and Quistis were stripes. It was Quistis' s turn and she knocked three balls in, in one shot but then accidentally shot one of Selphie' s in. "That Squall is kinda cute," Quistis stopped a daydreamed a sec. "You like him huh?" Riona gulped. Wait why was she sad? She didn't like Squall like that! Did she? "Huh? Oh no! Not like that! . . Okay maybe a little,"

At lunch the next day Riona kept looking around for Squall. She was really curious to see if he'd show up and eat with them. As soon she had given up hope and started to join in with the conversation he appeared behind. "Am I still welcome?" "Of course!" Riona smiled and pulled out a chair. Squall sat down. Irvine winked at Quistis, but not a seductive wink, more like a good luck wink. Squall didn't talk much but he seemed to smirk when everyone laughed. Like he was mostly just listening. Riona how ever felt the need to keep talking to him to get him into the conversation. "So Squall, what other classes do you have with everyone?" "Algebra, Chemistry (Science), English, and Physical Education," "PE? We missed it yesterday right? Because we were in the principle's office?" Riona asked Selphie. "Yeah,"
In P.E. Quistis, Riona, and Selphie went into the girls locker room and Irvine, Zell, and Squall went into the guys locker room.
As the girls were changing in their locker room Selphie asked, "So Quistis, you have a crush on Squall?" Quistis didn't answer. Selphie winked at Riona and gave her a look that made her think that she knew that she liked Squall. But that wasn't possible because Riona didn't like squall. Right? "just between us girls?" Riona chimed in. "Okay, it's a really small crush! Happy? He's just cute!" Riona felt a flutter in her heart as she thought. I don't like Squall so why do I feel happy? Maybe I just think Quistis deserves better than Squall.or the other way around but either way that's a good reason to be happy. It's totally normal! All though it isn't too normal to be talking to yourself.
"Irvy, you are Selphie' s boyfriend right?" Zell asked as he punched the air. "Why." Irvine said with a skeptical look on his face. Zell only laughed. "I don't like her, I kinda like Quistis, I was just wondering!"
They all met in the middle of the gym. "What are we doing in gym today?" Selphie asked the people who had been there yesterday. The Gym teacher whistled and answered her question. "Today we're going to have a fitness test, take a piece of paper and then go around to the stations," The first station was just being measured how tall you were, and what you weighed. The second station was to see how many sit-ups you could do, the teacher would stand by you and count. Seifer smiled at Squall and then started doing his sit-ups. Seifer completed 160 sit-ups! Squall completed 170; he had to beat his rival.
Station three was push-ups. Squall and Seifer did these at the same time, it was taking forever. Neither would stop until their archenemy would. The teacher could read what was going on and told them to stop at only 55. Both rivals made it to the top of the rope and rang the bell in record time. Squall ran the mile in 5 minutes but Seifer ran it in 4 minutes and 55 seconds. They were obviously competing with each other at each event. "What's wrong Squall you tired?" Seifer asked. "never," Squall mumbled but then the bell rang and the students filed out.
That night while Riona was reading on her bed, Seifer came in. "Did you see me beat Squall at gym today?" he boasted. "I hardly call 5 seconds, a nice beat," Riona retorted. Seifer grinned. "can I ask you a question?" "You just did, didn't you?" Seifer ignored the comment. "Why are you friends with that annoying Squall?" "What did you say about his sister?" "Excuse me, Riona?" "You heard me, what did you say about Squall sister?" Seifer frowned. "I like you Riona, I'll tell you the truth, I told him that she was stupid, scrawny, and that nobody missed her so get over it," Seifer smiled. Riona gaped at him! "How can someone be so evil? You might just be worse than the devil!" Riona started ignoring him, and just read her book. "Evil? It's the truth! Isn't it wrong to lie? Riona? Talk." He ordered her. But she just ignored him. Seifer walked closer to her.
