Hey! Thanks for all the reviews! And no, this isn't a Mary Sue fic! You will find that out a little bit later though.

This was the first time in her life where she actually felt nervous in front of a man. Aya knew she held the upper hand, but she rarely used this power. As Zell stood there staring at her, Aya wasn't embarrassed, she was quite flattered. She looked at him, his light blue eyes, his light blonde hair, his muscular arms, and then, she finally got herself to say something. The Siren stuck out her hand. "Nice to meet you, Zell," She smiled widely. Zell took her hand and shook it.

"The pleasure's all mine." Zell too smiled. Quistis stood next to Aya giggling to herself. "Do you want to continue the tour, Aya?" Quistis inquired containing herself.

"Yeah, sure," The Siren replied and turned to leave. "I hope to see you around!" Zell said, and watched Aya turn to look at him and smiled.

"Oh man!" Zell thought and smiled to himself. Shoving the hotdogs in his mouth as fast as possible he left the cafeteria looking for someone to share his news with. Not like he had much news other than he met a gorgeous girl and she seemed to like him.

"Where is that ring?!" Seifer screamed and looked around his horribly disastrous room. Clothes were thrown across the room; there were a pair of pants on his lampshade. Books were also thrown from their shelves, not that Seifer had many books, but the ones he did have were on the floor. "Shit!" Seifer sat on his bed with his head in his hands and thought. "What am I supposed to do now? Who do I know that can make me another ring?" Seifer continued to think. "Oh, no! Not Chickenwuss!" He was right; Zell was the only one in garden who was skilled in ring making. "I have to find that ring." Seifer ran his fingers through his hair; what he often did when he was stressed.

Rinoa was starting to fall asleep. Noticing this, Squall looked at the clock on the wall behind them. "It's almost 2:30," he said. Squall loved this time with Rinoa, even when she was sleeping. He watched her sleep. "She is so beautiful," Squall thought. He leaned over a little and softly kissed her. Rinoa's eyes slowly opened and a huge smile crossed her face.

"Oh Squall!" She too, looked at the clock. "We've been her for almost an hour and a half!" Squall nodded. "I'm starving, want to get some food?" Rinoa asked him.

"Sure," Squall replied and they got up off of their bench and started to walk toward the cafeteria. The gentle trickle of the fountains in the main hall was soothing. There weren't many people there at this time; most were either in class, or in their dorms. Squall took a deep breath taking in all of the calmness around him. Rinoa ran ahead. "I'll get us a table!" Rinoa blew Squall a kiss and ran off to the cafeteria. As Squall was thinking, as he often did, and spaced out for a moment. All of the sudden Zell came running and came to a halt in front of Squall.

"Hey man!" Squall noticed that Zell was a little more excited than usual today. "Hey," the brunette replied. "Guess what Squall? We got a new girl! She's so pretty, and I think she likes me!!" Squall looked at Zell. "Good for you," Squall said. "Oh, man, you have to meet her! Her name's Aya and.." Zell was describing her to Squall when Squall interrupted him. "I have to meet Rinoa in the cafeteria. See you later."

"Oh, ok man, See ya!" Zell replied, hurt, that Squall wouldn't listen to him talk about how pretty Aya was. Getting over that pretty fast Zell ran off to find someone else to listen to his raving.
