AN: Hello ^^ sorry for taking so long in updating, but I'm really bad at keeping up with kind of thing.  I'll try harder, though, I promise.  Schools being a real bitch, and homework sucks, so I have an excuse, tho, right? Right… Thanks so much for all of the reviews, I feel so luved ^_^ 

                Ok, well, just as a warning, there are a few not so very nice sexual puns in this chapter. Actually, I think there may be only one, but  I can't help it, they're just kind of, there.  So you can ignore those/that/whatever… pretend I didn't put them in or something… oh, and, Quistis seems to change moods VERY quickly in this chapter.  Probably In the whole damn story, but if you were under the kind of stress she was, you would too, now wouldn't you? Aight aight… on w/ the show…

Dis- no own, no sue

                Seifer entered the dorm room and shrugged off his trench coat.  He was getting kind of hot which was strange since he had been wearing that coat for as long as he could remember and it hadn't bothered him before.  A searing pain shot through his head and his hand automatically shot up toward his forehead.  Unfortunately, before he could do even that, he slumped forward to the ground, out cold.  And that was exactly how Quistis found him when she came home the next morning.

                "Seifer I heard that you were- holy shit… Seifer?!"  She rushed forward and turned the blonde man over so his head was resting in her lap. 

                "Oh crap!  I've got to get Dr. Kadowaki!"

She gently pushed Seifer off of her lap before she ran over to the phone and dialed a number.  "Hello?!  Doctor?  It's Seifer, I don't know what happened to him, but he's unconscious."

                "Who?!" the doctor asked, " Seifer?!  Seifer Almasy?  I didn't realize he was back at Garden!  I'll call up Zell so he can come and get him, he's the only one strong enough to carry him over here, all of the stretchers were sent to Galbadia because of some battle they had with monsters."

                "Thank you doctor.  I'll wait here." Quistis answered and she hung up the phone.  Quistis went over to Seifer and put his head back into her lap.  He moaned a little and she smoothed back his hair and tried to comfort him.  I hope he's alright, I didn't mean to be such a bitch when I left him.  He probably thinks I hate him.  Heh, wonder what he would think if I told him I've had a crush on him since we were little?  He'd probably laugh at me or something.  Her thoughts were interrupted by a loud knock at the door.  Actually, it was a bit more like pounding.  She didn't even have to ask who it was.  "Come on in Zell, the doors open!" 

                Zell came bursting through the door with his normal excessive energy.  "what's up?  The Doc said someone passed out." He questioned.

                "it's Seifer, Zell.  I just came home and he was sprawled out on the floor unconscious."

                "That's strange, I was just talking to him yesterday, and he seemed fine…" he muttered to himself.

                "What's that Zell?/"

                "Uh, I said, come on let's take him to the Infirmary, I'm sure he'll be fine."

                "Oh, alright."

                Zell went over to the two people on the ground and bent down to pick up Seifer.  Quistis was amazed at how easily he lifted the taller blonde.  He must have weighed at least 200 pounds, seeing as how much muscle it took to maneuver with the gun blade.  Zell carried Seifer out of the door and shouted over his shoulder, "Comin Quisty?"

                Quistis nodded and followed behind Zell, not bothering to change out of the revealing outfit she was still dressed in.  They quickly made their way towards the infirmary, and when they got there, Dr. Kadowaki ushered them into a tiny room and had Zell set Seifer down on the bed.  Then she shooed the two of them out of the room so she could commence with the investigations as to why Seifer was out like the light bulb over Zell's head.            

                Quistis sat down in the waiting room and Zell hopped around a bit, shadow boxing.  "Hey Quisty, you gonna stay here?  Cause I'll wait with ya if ya want." He offered.

                "Yes, I think I'll stay here until Seifer regains consciousness, but you don't have to stay.  I think the cafeteria is serving breakfast now.  Why don't you go get a hotdog or something?" she replied with a slight smile.

                "Really?!  Breakfast!  Sweet!  I'll catch ya later Quis, I'm starved!" Zell replied before he raced towards the cafeteria.

                Quistis laughed at her friends antics.  Zell really was a sweet guy, but his love for hot dogs out weighed anything else.  Dr. Kadowaki exited the examination room and motioned for Quistis.  "Well hon, it seems that Seifer inhaled something poisonous.  Not anything like drugs, just some sort of fume.  I'm not sure what it was or what it's going to do to him, but there should probably be someone there when he wakes up.  I'll leave that up to you.  Make sure to tell me when he wakes up, which should be in a few hours, so I can call the Headmaster.  Now go on in there." She said as she gently pushed Quistis towards the door.   

                Quistis glanced around nervously, not quite sure why she was there.  Hadn't Seifer always been a jerk to her?  And yet here she was waiting for him to awaken from some unknown reason.  'Stupid arrogant asshole, probably hit his head on a table or something just to make me worry… isn't it strange how my thoughts about him can change so suddenly?'  She sat down in one of the blue plastic chairs next to Seifer's bed and watched him for awhile.  Eventually her hard night started to catch up with her, and her head started to lower as she stifled a huge yawn.  She finally fell asleep with her head in her arms, leaning on Seifer's bed.

                Seifer groaned as he opened his eyes and tried to sit up.  He looked around to find himself lying in a bed in the infirmary, with Quistis asleep in a chair next to him. Her eyes quickly fluttered open, also, at the shift in the bed.  She yawned, sat up straight and looked at Seifer, who was giving her a 'why the hell am I here look'. 

                She cleared her throat and straightened her shirt, which didn't take much effort, seeing as she hadn't changed and it was really quite tight.  "I came back and found you on the ground, unconscious.  Zell brought you here." She said, answering his unvoiced question. 

                "Chicken wuss, eh?  So why are you here?" he asked, slightly amused.

                "Because I'm in charge of you is why.  And do you have any idea as to why your were completely out of it on my floor?"

                "Not a clue"

                "The doctor said it was because you inhaled something, care to explain?"

                "Nope,"

                Quistis looked extremely flustered at this, "What do you mean, nope?"

                "I mean, I dunno what I inhaled so obviously I cant explain.  Probably something you keep lying around your room to knock out the guys you don't care to fuck- I mean, please." He answered, immediately regretting it at the look that came over Quistis' face.

                "I'm going to pretend you didn't say that, Almasy, for the sake of not waking up the entire garden, seeing as it's midnight," she said, glancing at her watch, "Oh shit, it's midnight, I'm late, my boss is going to kill me! I have to go!  Seifer, go back to the dorm, we're going to have a nice long talk when I get back from work, got it? Because something is definitely not right here.  Now, if you'll excuse me…"

                Quistis got up to leave, but Seifer, who had turned so he was facing her, got up and grabbed her wrist.  "Your not going any where, Quisty.  And your right, we are going to have a little chat, but it's not going to be about me.  And for the record, I don't appreciate being told what to do like a five-year-old, that's my job."

                She growled at him and tried to pull her wrist away, but he wouldn't let go.  Instead, he picked her up, threw her over his shoulder and started walking towards the dorm.  "Wish I didn't have to do this Instructor, but I doubt you'd come easily any other way.  Oh wait, that's what you were going to go do, wasn't it?"

                "You bastard!  Put me down!  And I don't appreciate that comment, either, Mr. Don't-treat-me-like-a-five-year-old!  I HAVE TO GO TO WORK DAMNIT!"

                "Oh no, you don't" was Seifer's last comment before they reached the room.  Quistis seemed to be doing enough yelling for the both of them.
