Ooh, I changed my name again. Kawaii Kinomoto!!! Cute, ne? Now I know that I've been watching too much Card Captor Sakura. =^_^=

-Seifer's POV-

I flung myself on my bed and just lied there, thinking. Didn't think that it'd be so lonely around here.

Usually, Fujin and Raijin would be hanging out with me here. In my room. Fujin always bagged the bed first, forcing us guys to sit on the uncomfortable study chairs. Then there was always the floor. Funny, then we were so bored we tried to do something, ANYTHING [stupid or not] just for the heck of it. Now, that we had done something that practically almost destroyed all our lives, it didn't seem so fun after all.

I'm so screwed up...

My mind floated back to when I was one of the Discipline Committee. Kids were wary of me. They knew not to mess with me. I was one of the two gunblade specialists here last time. But now, everyone I've met in the hallway on the way back here. Now that was different. Fear mixed with a strong hatred. Some of them have lost the person they'd cared for in the war. All because of me.

Not one of them shouted bloody murder, though. They were too devoted to their Headmaster to do that.

My stomach grumbled loudly as I plopped down on my bed. I wondered what Fujin and Raijin were doing. Were they at the Training Center? Maybe at Weapons classes? Or maybe they were spreading rumours about me?

I ignored my growling stomach and sat down heavily next to my laptop. I logged on as my usual screen name, Hyperion_Seif. I clicked on the link 'Message Boards' and smirked. There were like about a thousand boards all about me. I didn't know I was this popular. I clicked on a board called "OMMMMGGGGG!!!! SEIFER ALMASY CAME BACK!!!!" by CardZ_Queen. I didn't understand why she had to drag out her 'OMG'… Does that make this 'Oh my my my my God God God---'. *ahem* Sorry, got carried away.

Oh MY GOD!!! Seifer returned!!! How could Squall doooo that??? Sure, he's cute and all, but that is so not a reason to let him come back 2 BG. Gosh, do u think that he'd cause n e trouble here? I hear he's an excellent fighter though, even w/o Ultimecia's powers. What if he murders all of us during the night??? Maybe he came back to have revenge on Squall for stealing Rinoa away! But Rin's already with Nida… So I guess that doesn't really ---

What the hell?

Rinoa was with Nida? The pilot fly guy? Is somebody getting a little too desperate over here?

Hmmm, I wonder who broke up with who first… Could've been Squall. Nobody can take that perky cheerleader for that long a time. Or maybe it was Rin. Sure, she's nice and loyal and stuff but she tends to complain if you didn't pay attention to her.

Make that, complain… a lot.

I clicked out and skimmed a whole bunch of 'Seifer Almasy' topics and finally settled for "Do you think Zell and Selphie are going out?". Oh my dear God.

Hey! Do you guys think that Selphie Tillmitt and Zell Dincht are going out? They HAVE been seen together lotsa times! They look so cute together!!! Irvine doesn't deserve Selphie. Stupid playboy. Got that right. Well, wish us good luck! In setting up the Garden Festival in time, I mean!

SELPHIE???? With ZELL???? That's…impossible…right? They don't have a lot in common except for being short and over-energetic. But then again…opposites attract. But I still think that I'm a better match for Zell.

Whoops. That didn't come out, right? It didn't? It didn't? IT DID!?

Breathe, Seifer, breathe.

Okay, remember the time Zell and Squall came over and Zell asked me out? What…? Can't a man dream in peace? Okay fine, remember the time Zell and Squall came over and Zell asked me to go on a little outing with him and Selphie? Anyway, he looked a lot better than he used to. He wasn't puny, teeny weeny Chicken Wuss anymore... but a grown man who's (heheh) matured in more ways I would have thought possible. His face was handsome yet beautiful at the same time and he had The Stance. You know, how everybody just takes one look at you and almost instantly know that that you're not one to be messed with. A LOT different from the garden rat from the orphanage.

Yeah, I remember the orphanage. I used to like to pick on Zell then too. I even tried bullying Squall, too but there's no fun in that. He'd just ignore you until you got bored and left in a huff.

-Selphie's POV-

ACK! It's already 4.30!!! I can't believe this. I haven't even got a band yet! After what seemed like about a million calls, not ONE was available to play next next Saturday. What is this? Some kind of Out to Get Selphie Day? Even one of my favourite groups, Nittle Grasper[1] can't make it!

Panting, I rushed back into my dorm, flew towards the closet and quickly tried to find out what to wear instead of my normal yellow dress. I simply settled for a new white jumper I just bought at the Esthar Shopping Center with navy jeans.

I ran to the bathroom. However, I wasn't aware of the lone towel lying on the floor. I slipped and came crashing to the ground.

"OWWWW!!!!!!!"

My elbow hurt like hell. I looked up from my comfortable position and saw the sink bearing down on me.

Whew… just missed it!

I picked myself up again and remembered just in time that there was something hard above my head. I then practically threw myself in the shower. After my 5 minute shower (HEY! I'm clean!) I put on my clothing and tried to pull up my jeans while grabbing my bag.

DING!!!

No, that's NOT the microwave. Stupid doorbell! Can't even let me dress in peace. I wouldn't be surprised if it was Irvine. He always seems to come visit me whenever I'm doing something important.

I cry out in truimph over my stubborn jeans after putting them on and ran for the doorbell.

"Hey, Zell!!"

Yeap, Zell Dincht. All dressed up like he was going to Broadway.

"Zell, why are you wearing a SeeD uniform? We're just going to take the train to Deling. Oh, oh, that's riiigggghhttt. You want to visit your mother don't you?" Pfftt… Zell doesn't know it but he can't lie for nuts.

"You said to look nice!"

I walked back to my dressing mirror and watched Zell close the door and sit on my bed uncomfortably.

"Zell, I said look nice not DRESS UP. Look at me, I'm not dressed up," I said while applying some makeup.

"Then why are you putting on that…that thing? What is it, masdala?"

Honestly, Zell can be so dumb sometimes.

"It's mascara,"

"Yeah, why are you putting it on?" he asked, jerking his head up.

"Because I'm a girl. And girls have to dress up to look nice!"

"AHAH!!! You just said 'Oh, look at me, I'm not dressed up!' and then later said 'Girls have to DRESS UP'"

"I said, 'Girls have to dress up to LOOK NICE'"

"Nuh uh, you didn't. You said—"

"ZELL!!!!"

So? How was that? I admit that it was a bit crappy. I think I have THE DREADED WRITER'S BLOCK. But then again, like my Literature teacher always say…

"People have Writer's Block because of no inspiration. Don't blame your writing on Writer's Block. Just go out there and GET INSPIRATION!!!"

As corny as it may sound, he's kinda right… Please review and then I'll die happy. =^_^=
