[A/N Beginning of the Selvine! ^^ Review okay, guys? Thanks. Next will be of Selphie.]

Undiscovered Light


~*Irvine*~

Yes, we had defeated her. We had made it through time compression and saved the world.

So why did I feel so empty? I stared at Selphie, who was trying to fix a video camera. Maybe it was her. Maybe...?

This I pondered over as I stared at absolutely nothing and sipped at my drink. That nothing though was broken as music played in the room and I began to dance.

"Come on, Quisty!" I said.

"What?" She snapped. I guess she had things to think about as well.

"Oh, fine. Be a Quistis." I grinned and continued to dance to the music. She stared at me like I was nuts.

I vaguely heard Selphie shouting, "Woo-hoo! It's working!"

I turned and realized that Selphie had fixed the video camera and was now taping Quistis. She was smiling seriously into the camera. I blocked her and grinned.

"Hey, Quisty, wave!" I said, and put my arm around her, waved wildly, as she protested. Finally, she pushed me away and I heard Selphie giggling.

"What's up with her?" I asked. Selphie giggled more and I smiled. I loved it when she was like that. Her eyes would sparkle and her smile would lift up my spirits any day.

I walked over to Headmaster Cid and Quistis, seeing that Matron had joined them. I bowed and took off my hat.

"Woo-hoo!" Selphie squealed. I had to grin when I heard her say that. We all turned to her and I walked there and knocked on the glass lense of the camera.

She grabbed the hat out of my hands, put it on her head and tossed the camera to me.

"Your turn!" She yelled and stood next to Quistis, who was now alone since Matron and Cid had left.

"Sefie! How do you work this thing?" I fumbled with it for a moment until I finally had it working right.

"Irvy, turn it around. Like that..." She indicated with her hands and I finally got it right.

She waved and Quistis smiled into the camera. I got an idea and started filming three other girls, just to see if Selphie would mind.

"Irvine!!!" Yeah, she noticed. "Come on!!! You have to film Zell now." Selphie said and walked over to Zell and Michele, the library girl. I followed with the camera in my hands.

Zell was stuffing hotdogs into his mouth as fast as he could. Finally, as I had predicted he choked. Sefie and Quistis frantically began pounding his back until he shut up.
"Zell...?" Quistis asked quietly. He looked at them, stood up quickly and threw a hot dog at the camera. I think he didn't want to be filmed with hotdogs coming out of his mouth, either that or he didn't like us seeing him with Michele.

As Quistis and I finally fixed it, Selphie began pointing out to the balcony. I saw Rinoa pointing to the sky. Squall was actually smiling.

"No battery!" I whined.

"Shhhhhh!" Selphie told me and I complied.

We watched and what came next nearly made me laugh. We weren't close enough to hear what they were saying but, Squall had pulled Rinoa close and... Kissed her!

I laughed and Selphie clapped her hand over my mouth to shut me up. Quistis was also trying to hold back her giggles.

Squall and Rinoa just stood like that for a while, when Selphie finally removed her hand, I whistled. Quistis' giggling became louder and Selphie scolded me. "Irvy!" She said trying not to laugh herself.

"Sorry, Sefie. Couldn't help it." I grinned and put my arm around her.

At that second, both Squall and Rinoa turned around and blushed a deep red upon seeing their audience.

"You guys!" Rinoa whined.

"Sorry!" Selphie said, bursting into laughter.

"How long have you been watching?" She demanded to know.

Quistis answered her since Selphie and I were laughing too hard to speak. "Just after Irvine's camera ran out of battery. Only since you two..." She stopped talking because she was laughing too hard.

"Too bad we didn't have that on tape." I said, grinning. Selphie was smiling and for some reason I couldn't stop staring at her. Luckily Quistis spoke up and no one noticed my distracted attention.

"Oh, come on you two!" Quistis said. "It's not that surprising anyway. Get back inside before the others suspect other things..."

Squall hurriedly left, pulling Rinoa behind him. Quistis followed them, leaving only me and Selphie on the balcony.

For some reason both of us sensed that we ought to stay outside for a while.

We didn't say anything, which was a big surprise considering I was with hyper little Selphie.

I simply smiled again and put my arm around Selphie's shoulders. She didn't do anything. She looked like she was thinking hard about something. I looked at her, and when she finally looked back at me, she gave me the biggest smile I've ever seen, tiptoed and gave me a kiss. It was short and quick.

She moved back, embarrassed and nearly guilty. I leaned close though and kissed her. That time it wasn't too short... or too quick.

Still smiling when she pulled away, she blushed and I stood dazed. I grinned and that empty feeling suddenly disappeared. Love filled it. I turned to the sky of stars, the witness to our first kiss.

"We'd better get out before Squall sees us." I grinned and kept my arm on her shoulder. "I think he'd like revenge for the teasing we gave them."

Selphie smiled and we walked out of the balcony together.
