No One Knows Like I Do
All characters except for the ones I made up (Rose, Macy, Isazu, Tristan, Kyle, Chris) belong to Square.
I couldn't wait until Monday to post this chapter, so here it is! Enjoy!
Chapter 4-A Thorn Named Rose
"I saw them walking together! Just the two of them! I thought that they all stuck together like a weird family or something. There's something going on between those two!" Rose exclaimed. She had immediately gone to Macy's dorm when she had seen Seifer and Fujin. News like this was too sweet to not discuss. Macy was in the middle of dusting her dorm (something that was very rare) when Rose barged into the dorm. Having the key to her friend's dorm made it even more efficient in spreading news. She immediately pulled her friend to the kitchenette to tell her what she "found out."
"You think so? I had no idea she was interested in boys," Macy remarked. "That doesn't mean that I thought she was a lesbian or anything."
"She's not interested in boys, just one boy named Seifer who I think is so scrumptious!" Rose squealed. Even though she already had three boyfriends another wouldn't hurt.
"Geez girl, you already have three boyfriends! Small details though, right?"
"Tristan, Kyle, and Chris don't have a say in who I should like," Rose said flipping her perfectly straight brown hair. She was the type of girl that most other girls would envy. She had it all: money, looks and her love life was never better, but it could stand some improvement. It was no secret to her friends that she adored Seifer.
"Sounds like they're whipped! I couldn't stand to do that.hey, wait a minute! Don't you live with Fujin?"
"Yeah. You know what I think? I bet Seifer doesn't really return the feeling for her. He's probably playing her ass!"
"Probably. I mean, why the hell would he go for a creepy looking girl like that? I thought he liked her girls nice and normal, not with some creepy eyepatch," Macy remarked snickering. "He would definitely go for someone like you."
"I know it. I think I'm gonna have a little 'talk' with Fujin later on tonight. I think it's about time to test how far she would go."
~*~*~
"Instructor Nomura says that I'm all clear to take the SeeD written test, ya know. Pretty soon, I'm gonna be a SeeD, ya know. Hey, did you guys talk to Instructor Trepe yet?" Raijin asked with a mouthful of chicken. Fujin and Seifer still had Quistis as an instructor since she was training them to become SeeDs before the whole Ultimecia incident. Unfortunately for Fujin, they didn't have class the same period.
"I don't have to take the written test," Fujin replied. "I just need to complete the field exam and so does Seifer." Fujin pointed her folk at Seifer.
"Hey hey, I won't blow it this time." Seifer failed to complete the SeeD field exam on several occasions due to his impetuousness. The posse made a deal that they would all become SeeDs since it was more their speed. "We should still talk to her. The deadline for signing up for the field test is this Thursday."
A typical posse conversation carried on about illegal pets, fights, and how many other boys called Seifer a prick or a bastard. They lost track of time and soon found out that they would miss working the rest of their office hours.
"We was in here for three hours! I think we'll get in trouble, ya know," Raijin said worriedly.
Fujin kicked him in his shin under the table. "WIMP."
"Owww! Do you wear steel toe boots?! That smarts, ya know."
Fujin sneered at Raijin jokingly. "Enough work for one day. WANT TO REST."
"Rest for what? We didn't get anything done, Fujin," Seifer said. Fujin shot him a don't-say-anything-else-if-you-want-to-live look.
"Ohhhh, you guys had a little talk? I knew it would happen sometime, ya know," Raijin snickered. He knew what Fujin's look meant. She would only use it if something embarrassing happened or if something was a secret.
"Well then you're smarter than I thought," Seifer said sarcastically.
"You know it."
"WISHFUL THINKING." Fujin used that tone of voice to show a great amount of sarcasm. Raijin suddenly put her into a headlock and mussed her hair. Fujin tried to get out of it, but Raijin had an incredible amount of strength. They all sat in silence for a while after that. Suddenly, Fujin did what she was most famous for.
"Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!"
~*~*~
Fujin needed to wind down after the day she had. Seifer's emotional breakdown took its toll on her and lunchtime was what it always was. She needed that, but now all she wanted was quiet. She happily took note that Rose wasn't there so things would quiet for the time being. She went into the kitchenette for a small snack and settled down reading the school newspaper. Her peace was short lived when Rose came bursting into the dorm making out with Chris. She immediately spotted Fujin and pushed him off her.
"Well, we couldn't do as we planned after all," she said breezily. "I'll see you later lover." She couldn't kiss him goodbye the way she wanted to so she settled for a peck on the cheek.
"See ya." Chris glared at Fujin on his way out and she slowly pulled out a pink slip from her sweat pant pocket. He darted out of the dorm not looking back. Satisfied, she resumed her reading of the paper.
"Why did YOU have to be here this very moment?" Rose spat as she took her shoes off. She heaved them into her bedroom.
"LIVE HERE." Fujin simply stated not looking up.
"Hey, just because YOU don't have a boyfriend, that doesn't mean you have to ruin everyone else's fun!" Rose exclaimed. "There's no need to be jealous," she added flipping her hair.
"OF WHAT?" Fujin snapped. "SLUT."
"What?! Oh, that's just jealousy talking. I hear it all the time." Rose headed to her room to change into her nightclothes. Just then the phone rang and she snatched it up.
"What?"
"Hello is what you say." Rose instantly knew she was talking to Seifer and corrected her tone.
"Sorry about that. What can I do for you?" She purred.
"Let me talk to Fujin."
"Oh. Hold on. Fujin! Phone!"
Fujin went to her bedroom and picked up the phone wondering if it was Raijin calling about homework.
"Yes?"
"Hey, it's me Fuj. What's up with that girl?"
"HANG UP."
"Huh?"
"I meant Rose. HANG UP." Rose sheepishly hung up the phone but she was pissed that Fujin noticed she was still on. To further annoy Fujin, she turned on a pop song and sang along with it loudly. Fujin ignored her and continued her conversation.
"Why are you calling me tonight? You never did." Fujin twirled a stray piece of string on her T-shirt absently.
"I wanted to apologize for scaring you earlier. It was weird to see my cry like that, huh? Must looked like a wimp like chicken wuss."
"No. You needed to do that. I'm glad you did."
"Yeah I guess so. Got some stuff out there in the open."
"Yeah."
An awkward silence passed between the two. Nearby, Rose had stopped her singing to get an idea of what type of conversation was carrying on. She felt a sudden urge to get something to eat in the kitchenette, which happened to be closer to Fujin's door. Fujin didn't notice that Rose was hovering around since she was searching her brain to find something else to say.
"Seifer?"
"Yeah?"
"Did you really mean what you said earlier?"
"Every last part of it. It was about time I admitted the truth. I really do think you're beautiful."
"Oh.really?" Fujin felt her face burning. She knew she was bright red. It was embarrassing to hear him talk about her like that.
"Really. I hope when can be SeeDs together too. I couldn't stand the thought of leaving the Garden without you." Seifer was a year older than Fujin and he was getting close to he age where one would have to leave Garden.
"Oh.."
"Heh. I'll let you go now.I know you're tired. See you in the morning. Goodnight."
"Goodnight." Fujin hung up the phone with a light feeling in her heart. She had never felt this good before in her life. She sighed happily and then composed herself quickly. She headed back to finish her snack and ignored Rose as she sat down.
"What the hell would he call you for?" Rose snapped. Fujin continued to ignore her. 'Looks like I've got to push her buttons a little more,' Rose thought wickedly.
"What could you possibly say to him? 'ME GOOD. GOOD DAY. BAD FOOD. Ha! What a conversation that was!" Rose was trying to no avail to get a rise out of Fujin. Her efforts were beginning to pay off.
"NOT YOUR CONCERN."
"Oh look! A full fragment! Face it girlie, he sees nothing in your ass," Rose retorted. She could guess what type of conversation that Fujin and Seifer had and it was making her green-eyed with jealousy. "He drop you like a hot potato when he finally comes to his senses. And you'll know who he will be after? Me, of course! He'll finally realize he was going out with a complete freak, which will probably traumatize him, and want to go out with someone who at least has two eyes!"
Fujin finally looked up from her newspaper. She stood up and wrapped it under her arm. She slowly walked to her room and as she reached her door she turned around and regarded Rose.
"Oh, that must be the jealousy talking. I get it all the time from you." Without another word she walked into her room and closed the door leaving Rose speechless.
Oooooooh! What a chapter! What do you all think of Rose? Let me know!
