(Review)

Selphie leapt from her seat tackling Seifer and pulling him into a passionate kiss. About five minutes later, in the interest of their oxygen supply, they pulled apart. Seifer looks at her, "Is that a yes?" Selphie smiles blushing slightly, "Yes, that definitely was a yes."

~October 30, 9:00 a.m.~

~Infirmary~

Seifer slowly walked out of his infirmary room. He had been sitting in that room for little under a week and had finally convinced the good doctor to let him leave. He walked perfectly fine, though you would think he'd be wobbling all over the place. He looked up to see Selphie standing in the lobby waiting for him with a giant grin on her face. She ran up and got him in a huge hug. Seifer gasped for air he looked down at her, "Uh Selph..." Selphie looked up at him giant grin still in place, "Yes Seify" Seifer used his last bit of air, "I can't breathe." Selphie blushed yet another new shade of pink and let go with an embarrassed smile on her face, "Whoops sorry Seify." Seifer coughed regaining his air supply.

Seifer looked to his left and noticed a certain cowboy glaring at them. Seifer smirked his same old cocky smirk before a split second later Irvine's fist collided with the left side of Seifer's face. Seifer didn't even lose his balance, his face just moved sideways to the right. He turned and glared the shorter cowboy, "You disappoint me cowboy. But because your considered Selphie's friend, though I don't know how she could forgive you, I'll give you a two second head start. One..." Irvine just stood there glaring at him and tried to punch Seifer again. Seifer, seeing Irvine's hand move, moved to the right towards Selphie who still had a shocked look on her face Seifer shook his head, the cowboy missed by a mile, "Two! Firaga!" Irvine was instantly blown to the other side of the room where he hit the wall.

Seifer walked over to the pile on the floor that was Irvine Kinneas. He looked down at the cowboy and stated. "Even if I'm on the brink of death cowboy. I'll still be able to kick your puny arse." Seifer turned his trenchcoat flaring behind him.

He walked back over to Selphie who looked at Seifer a extremely concerned. He looked down at her and smirked. She looked up at him with a smile on her face, she was glad to see that her knight, her boyfriend, was alright, "When will he ever get a clue?" Seifer's smirk grew a tad bit bigger as he scooped Selphie up in his arms. Selphie giggled as she wrapped her arms around his neck and laid her head against his shoulder. Seifer kissed the top of her head as he walked to the front desk to tell the good doctor about the mess in her lobby. The doctor just waved her hand in the "I know, I know" manner as she walked to the pile of Mr. Kinneas. Seifer chuckled slightly as he walked out of the Infirmary with his little messenger girl in his arms.

~Fountain 9:20 a.m.~

Selphie looked up at Seifer as an announcement rung over the P.A. "Would SeeD Tilmitt and SeeD Almasy please report to the Headmaster's office. I repeat, would SeeD Tilmitt and SeeD Almasy please report to the Headmaster's office." Selphie asked with a curious spark in her eyes, "You're a SeeD?" Seifer shrugged, "Unless there's another Almasy in the school." He walked to the elevator and set Selphie on her feet when they got inside the elevator. Selphie punched the button to go to the Headmaster's office.

~Headmaster Cid's Office 9:30 a.m.~

Xu saw Seifer and Selphie step off the elevator, "Go on in they're waiting for you." Seifer strode up the giant doors pushing one open holding it open for Selphie. Cid was sitting behind his desk with a grin on his face. Squall stood to his side. Cid spoke up after they both were in and the door was shut, "Please take a seat, this has been an interesting week." Selphie sat in one of the seats while Seifer preferred to stand. Cid's grin didn't falter.

"Seifer I would assume your wondering why you were referred to as SeeD Almasy?" Seifer nodded. "Well I received a letter from the Galbadian Garden stating that while you were there you were appointed SeeD." Seifer looked slightly shocked. "Though this is not the Galbadian Garden, you are still a SeeD." Seifer nodded as Cid continued, "Selphie the reason you are here is because our gracious doctor informed me that you are assigned to escort Seifer wherever he must go, so no you are not here because you are in trouble." Selphie let out a sigh of relief. "I must also thank you for your work on the Halloween Garden Festival." Selphie grinned very happy to hear that compliment.

"Now, I received a call from President Loire of Esthar informing me that they have completed building their Garden and asked me to choose two SeeDs, one to become Commander of Esthar Garden and one to become the Headmaster. Seeing that you are now a SeeD Seifer, Commander Leonheart and I are offering you the position of Commander of Esthar Garden, do you accept?" Seifer was stunned he didn't know this was a rush of blood to the head. He looked to Selphie for help, she gave him an excited nod. Seifer regained his composure and with his smirk in place replied, "I accept." Cid looked relieved, "Good, now I was going to ask Quistis to be Headmistress. But because I'm retiring at the end of this year and would like her to be Headmistress of this Garden. So I would like you to choose a SeeD to accompany you to be Headmaster."

With no hesitation whatsoever he stated, "I would like SeeD Tilmitt to accompany me." Selphie looked at Seifer caught a little off guard 'Me! He wants me to go to Esthar with him and become Headmistress!' Cid looked at Seifer, "Are you certain of your choice?" Seifer nodded. Cid turned to look at Selphie, "Well Selphie Commander Almasy has offered you the position of Headmistress of Esthar Garden, do you accept?" Selphie panicked 'I don't think I could handle this sort of responsibility.' She looked up to Seifer to see what he thought, he wore his smirk and nodded with a wink. Selphie blushed ever so slightly. She looked at Headmaster Cid and nodded, "I accept."

Squall was so shocked by what just happened his emotion shield fell for a brief moment and he actually looked shocked. He quickly regained control back to his "whatever.." look.

Cid smiled, "Very well, you will leave via Ragnorok November fifth. So yes Selphie you still get to go to the Garden Festival." Selphie grinned and jumped up, "Thank you Cid." Cid shook his head, "Don't thank me, thank Seifer he seems to have quite a bit of confidence in you. Now go get some breakfast you two seem hungry." Seifer and Selphie nodded walked out of the office rather quickly.

As soon as the door closed Squall sighed and shook his head, "Esthar Garden is... doomed."
