Chapter VII: My lips on his......
Rinoa awoke from her sleep in the hospital. It was a lovely Saturday afternoon. Her friends dropped by to see how she was doing hours ago. The only person she wanted to see though was Squall. Ever since that night they had together, she couldn't stop thinking about him. 'I wonder if Squall feels the same way about me.' Rinoa thought to herself as she sat up in her bed. 'Am I feeling....Love?' She looked out of the large window to her side. 'No, it couldn't be.' Some people from the hospital walked out and into their relatives cars. While others came to the hospital to visit. The door then opened and a blonde woman came in from the door. "Hi Rinoa." She spoke. Rinoa smiled at her.
"Hey Quistis." She patted her bed for Quistis to sit on. The young woman did and gave Rinoa a hug.
"I came to ask you about your night with..Squall."
"Your so nosy aren't you?" Rinoa asked, being sarcastic.
"Come on, Selphie and Xu were dying to know. They would have come too, but their visiting their parents." Rinoa slouched down in her bed.
"Nothing happened, geeze."
"Come on Rinoa, he obviously was with you during the whole night. Something had to happen." Rinoa closed her eyes.
"I'm going to sleep." Rinoa had a slight grin on her face.
"Oh no you don't." Quistis tickled Rinoa until she was tearing out of the eye.
"Stop...that." Rinoa laughed out. "Alright, alright." Quistis stopped tickling her and was now ready to listen. "He just told me about his sister and why he always keeps his distance, okay?"
"That's it? I thought you guys would be kissing and huggin' and all."
"What about you and Seifer?" Rinoa asked, folding her arms to her chest.
"We do that stuff, but it would seem even better if Squall was kissing you."
"Quistis, could we please talk about something else?!" Quistis stopped laughing. She could plainly see that she was embarrassing Rinoa.
"Can't, I got to go, I have to be back at Balamb high. The graduation preparations are about to start." Quistis got back up from the bed. "I'll see ya' later." She walked out of the door and shut it. Rinoa slowly got back up from her bed. 'Father....'
*
"Students who have already eaten lunch, please report to the auditorium, we will be practicing for the graduation ceremony." Deling announced on the loud speaker. "Also, those who do not live in dorms will practice first thing Monday morning. That is all."
*
Squall opened his tired eyes and yawned. He slowly lifted his head from the pillow and looked at his alarm clock. It read 1:04 pm. 'I'm late!' Squall yelled to himself. He jumped off of his bed and ran into the shower.
*
Laughs and loud speaking could be heard from the auditorium. Senior students sat in rows, waiting for more to come and for and staff to arrive. Squall sat in the back. Just then, Irvine, Zell, and Selphie came walking down the long aisle. "Yo Squall!" Zell yelled, spotting Squall. The three students sat next to Squall. "How's it been with ya?"
"I don't know." He answered back.
"Come on Squall! Don't be so down...We all know you have a crush on Rinoa! Stop acting like you don't." Selphie yelled. "Anyway, why don't you go see her."
"Alright Selphie, that's enough." Irvine said. "Listen Squall, it would mean a lot to Rinoa if you did visit her. Quistis told me earlier that she visited her."
"....Whatever." Squall turned his head to the side. 'Rinoa's probably sleep or something....Rinoa.' Squall thought.
"Alright people, this is just practice, so don't get the jitters." Cid said on the stage, holding up a microphone.
"Too late." Zell whispered. "I think..that I need...a hotdog." Students began chattering again.
"Settle down. Settle down. Mr. Deling will come up on the stage and get ready to introduce the graduates." Cid continued. "Once the graduation music begins to play, you guys will be in lines at the front door. You will walk out one by one and stop at the side stairs of the stage...Let's practice." Cid put the microphone back on the stand and walked off of the stage. He ran up the long aisle. "The last three rows stand up." They did as he said. He made a gesture for them to follow him. The students were now lined up as he said. Cid continued calling rows until they were all lined up. "Play the music." Cid said, referring to the music teacher at the piano.
The pianist began to play a lovely melody and out came the students, one by one. Deling walked up to the stage and stood at the podium. "Wait!!!" Quistis yelled. She and Seifer ran into the auditorium. "Don't start without us!" The music stopped and the students stopped walking.
"What on earth!" Cid yelled. "If you were here earlier, we wouldn't of started without you! Just stand in any line." Cid said, now calmed. Quistis and Seifer did as he said and stood in the line Xu and Selphie were in.
"Where were you?" Xu whispered. The music began to play. A couple of students who were in front of Xu went.
"None of your business." Quistis answered, slightly blushing.
"With Seifer." Selphie laughed. It was now her turn to go down the aisle. Then it was Xu's and Quistis's turn.
*
After an hour of rehearsal, all of the students were tired, but they finally were able to walk down the aisle without any problem. All of the students were lined at the side stairs of the stage. Cid ran up the stairs and unto the stage. "Now that we're in position, Deling will already be on the stage. He will come to the podium and make his speech. The music will play again, and he'll call you up one by one."
"I have a question." Zell announced.
"What is it?" Cid asked.
"Will we walk up to the stairs in any kind of order?"
"Yes, Deling will call your name in alphabetical order. Mrs. Matron and I will make sure your in that order." Zell nodded in understanding. "Alright you guys, I'd say this was okay for the first time you've practiced. Your graduation suits will be delivered to your dorms this evening. Dismissed." The students began talking. They walked off of the stairs and back to their dorms, all except for one. Squall.
*
Rinoa finished out of the shower with some nurses help. She still had pain in her legs, but the nurses gave her pain killers. They told her that if she was up to it, she could be let out early. Rinoa walked back to her bed. She sat down in it, but not all the way. "I wonder what Squall is doing...He's probably practicing for the graduation...He would look so handsome in his uniform....Stop it Rinoa!" Rinoa scolded herself. "Get him out of your mind." Just then, the door opened to reveal a familiar brown haired young man. Rinoa's eyes lit up. "Squall!" She ran over to him and hugged him.
"Hey." He simply replied. "How are you feeling?" Rinoa let go of Squall.
"I guess I feel better. The doctor said I can leave whenever I'm ready."
"We already started practicing for the graduation." Rinoa sat down on the hospital bed.
"Darn, I wasn't even there." Just then, Quistis, Seifer, Irvine, Selphie, and Zell came in the door.
"I knew we would find you here Squall." Quistis said.
"I didn't know you were quite the roma Squall." Zell said, shutting the door behind him.
"Whatever." Squall said.
"What about the girl in the library? You always hang out with her." Rinoa said. Zell just turned around, ignoring what Rinoa said. Rinoa was now giggling.
"Now that Squall is here, we'll leave you guys alone." Irvine said. Everyone said their goodbyes and walked out of the room.
"I'm thinking that I could leave today." Rinoa said.
"Really. Are you sure?" Squall asked.
"Yeah, I have great friends who can help me...And most importantly, you Squall." Squall turned away in a blush. "Aww. Your blushing...I can see it."
"Whatever." Rinoa and Squall said in unison. Squall turned away in irritation. "I just came over to see how you were doing." Squall said, still looking away.
"You were worried about me?"
"Irvine dragged me here."
"Why are you acting so strange?...You don't like me anymore?"
"Who said I liked you in the first place?! I just brought you to the hospital so you wouldn't die alright! I'm leaving." Squall walked over to the door and slammed it shut. He walked out to the front door and opened it.
*
Squall walked into Balamb High's front gate after paying the cab driver the money.
*
"Irvy! Slow down!" Selphie complained. "Your going way to fast!"
"No he ain't...This is great!" Zell yelled, through Irvine's car.
"Keep your head in the window man." Irvine said. "So like, I wonder what Squall and Rinoa are doing."
"Probably kissing and smacking." Quistis answered.
"Eww." Selphie said.
"Yeah, they're probably doing you-know-what on the hospital bed." Zell said.
"Freak." Xu muttered.
"What was that?!"
"Zell, calm down, are ya' tryin' to get us in an accident?" Irvine asked, stopping at a red light.
"I can't wait for the graduation." Quistis announced.
"Yeah, me too. Of course, I'll be the first one down the aisle." Zell said.
"Zell, your name begins with a 'Z'." Seifer said.
"That's right...I was just seeing if YOU know your alphabets."
*
"What's wrong with Squall? Why is he acting like this?...He makes me so mad!" Rinoa said."Well, I'll show him." Rinoa got up from her bed. She took her briefcase which was right next to the door. "I'm going to pay Squall a little visit." Rinoa opened the door and walked out, heading for Balamb High.
*
"Hurry Angelo!" Rinoa yelled. Angelo jumped into Squall's dorm window that was opened. Rinoa was in the back of Balamb high, trying to get into Squall's dorm through the window. Before she came to Balamb, Rinoa stopped at her house to get Angelo. She missed him a lot. Squall had his door locked, so she couldn't get in. Rinoa intended to find out why Squall acted the way he did. She climbed a fence that was right next to his dorm's window. The pain killers for her leg took affect, but she could still feel some pain. She caught hold on the rim of Squall's dorm. Angelo, who was waiting for Rinoa on the other side waged his tail in excitement. "Made it." Rinoa crawled into the opened window and fell onto Squall's bed, messing up his neatly placed sheets. "Now, we'll just wait for Squall to come."
*
"Made it back!" Zell yelled.
"Seriously." Selphie said, rubbing her eyes.
"We're going to get in trouble." Quistis said. Irvine, Selphie, Zell, Quistis, and Seifer had all gone joy riding through the town. They all decided to have a little 'fun' before graduation day. They destroyed Irvine's car during the ride because they all were arguing over childish stuff. Irvine brought the car back to school and placed it in the parking lot. His father was going to find out about it sooner or later and complain.
"Oh well, it was fun..Good bye." Zell said, trying to sneak away.
"Damn man! My dad's is going to have a heart attack once he see's this! Damn!" Irvine yelled. "Look at this car! We messed up." Irvine's car had large dents in it. The glass window's were cracked. Everyone was lucky they survived. They had ran into a large gate.
*flashback*
"Hey you guys! Let's have some fun....And what I mean by fun is...Joy riding! It's almost time for school to be out." Zell yelled, as Irvine turned a corner.
"No way. I'm not doin' it. Your not wrecking my Dad's car." Irvine said.
"Come on man, it's cool."
"Nope."
"Aw, come on Irvine. If you drive, we won't mess your car up...Please?" Selphie said. After taking a deep sigh, Irvine agreed.
"Yeah! Let's get some hotdogs!" Zell yelled.
"No Zell, that will delay us." Xu said.
"We're getting hotdogs!!!" He yelled to her.
"Zell! Stop yelling, you're going to get Irvine into a car crash." Quistis said.
"OWW! Quistis!" Seifer exclaimed. "You stepped on my toe!" Quistis turned around to Seifer.
"Sorry." Irvine turned around to look at everyone who was causing the noise.
"Stop yelling!" Irvine said.
"Irvy! Look at the rode!" Irvine quickly turned around. They were headed for a large, abandoned gate.
"AWWWWWWW!!!!!" Everyone yelled. Irvine's car crashed into the gate. Before it could, Zell was the only one who opened the back seat door and jumped out.
*End of flashback*
"I know! Why don't we get jobs and pay it off!" Everyone looked at Selphie and shook their heads. "...I wasn't finished...We can hide the car and then we'll pay it off!"
"No Selphie! We're gonna get caught before we can even get a job!" Quistis yelled.
"Don't yell at me! Xu and Zell started it!"
"Yeah right!...Zell was the one who started yelling in my ear about stupid hotdogs!" Xu protested.
"Guys, your acting like kids." Seifer reasoned. "...Although, if Quistis hadn't stepped on my toe and argued with me, we wouldn't be in this mess." Everyone rolled their eyes. Just then, Squall walked up to the crowd and passed them.
"Yo Squall, what's up?" Zell asked, running up to him.
"......" Was all Squall said. He continued walking to his dorm. Zell shrugged it off.
"Maybe something happened between Rinoa and him." Zell ran back to the arguing crowd. "Aww man, I forgot they were arguing." He said under his breathe.
*
Squall used his card to open his dorm. He placed his hand on his head and closed his eyes. Since the room was dark, Squall had to search with his hands for the light switch, when all of a sudden, they flickered on. Squall startled, jumped. "Hey Squall." Rinoa stood on the bed, tapping her feet. "Whatcha' doin' out so late?...It's almost nine."
"What are you doing in here?" Squall looked over to Angelo, who was falling asleep at the bottom of his bed. "Get that dog out of here! You can't have that in here!"
"It's not a 'that', it's a boy!" Rinoa protested. Squall walked up to Rinoa.
"Whatever." Rinoa's eyes lit up.
"I love when you say whatever!" She jumped onto Squall, waiting for him to catch her. Squall did catch her. Rinoa forced her body to swing around. Squall continued holding her until her feet landed on the ground.
"Take it easy." Squall said. Rinoa sat down on his bed. "Shouldn't you be in the hospital, you'll get in trouble if someone finds a girl in a boy's dorm."
"I want to know why your acting strange."
"Strange?" Squall sat beside Rinoa.
"Yeah, you got really mad today.....You mean to tell me that you didn't notice it?" Squall turned away. "What's wrong?..Come on, you can tell me." Squall turned back around to Rinoa and closed the gap between them with his lips.
A/n: Alright, so maybe this wasn't a fluff, but the next chappie will, it just got things started here. What will happen with Irvine and his friends lives once his father finds out about his car? Don't worry, Irvine's father will come up to the school and.....I can't tell you! Squall and Rinoa are...Kissing! Yay!!!!!!
Thanx for the reviews once again! I love all of you guys out there! Well enjoys a nice fluff. Well sort of, I assure you that the next chappie will be way more fluff, I just got it started.
