Wake up Quistis, it's another miserable day of your life, Quistis thought as she fluttered her eyes open due to the horrible beeping sound of her standard Balamb Garden alarm clock. She was doing her normal daily routines every single fucking day of the rest of her life. Hmm, what mask should I put on today? Oh here's one, The Ice Bitch. Quistis angrily thought. For one she would like to have a change in her life. It's seems she has no purpose here in Garden except for...Seifer, I have to tutor and aid him to be SeeD, Quistis thought as she frowned reminiscing the situation with her and Seifer down at the lobby of Balamb Garden.
Quickly, Quistis changed from her loose fitting pajamas into her crisp SeeD uniform. Looking at the calendar, the Masked Ball was set for tomorrow, and Selphie forced her to come because she worked so hard in setting up the big bash. Quistis chuckled when Selphie bought her a dress that would look stunningly beautiful on her--which she spent a lot of gil to get the dress. Quistis didn't want her to be disappointed and she didn't want to feel guilty for not going to the Masked Ball not wearing the expensive dress.
After placing her hair up in her trademark style, she heard a knock.
-"Come in." Quistis said.
Squall let himself into the quarters of Quistis Trepe. He was searching for Quisits in her dorm. He saw the blonde SeeD enter the living room surprised to see Squall at her door.
-"Oh! Squall, good morning! What brings you here?" Quistis kindly greeted.
-"I just wanted to talk." Squall quietly said.
-"Sure, what do you want to talk about?" Quistis asked.
-"I wanted to say sorry--you know--about the Secret Area incident." Squall said.
-"Oh Squall, that's in the past. Don't worry, I know you and everyone else cares about me, no need to apologize Squall." Quistis smiled.
-"Oh...okay, I just wanted to say that." Squall shyly said.
-"I'll see you at the cafeteria?" Quistis said.
-"Yes, see you there." Squall said as he left.
Quistis was quite surprised that Squall apologized. At least she was happy to hear that he didn't mean to hurt her feelings. Realizing how childish she was, she admitted to be jealous of Rinoa, but Quistis realized that it was not meant to be and Rinoa was like a sister to her. But she shouldn't be sad about it, Squall changed for the better and Quistis liked the way he was now. Quistis sighed as she left her dorm to meet her friends.
Arriving at the cafeteria, Quistis bought her breakfast and sludge they call coffee, she scanned the room, suprised, she saw Seifer, she frowned about what happened but right now, she wasn't in the mood to be dealing with her emotions. She found the gang and pulled a chair between Amy and Selphie.
-"Oooooh, the Masked Ball is tomorrow!" The happy-go-lucky brunette called Selphie squealed in her seat while Irvine was stealing glances and ganders from his spunky girlfriend.
-"Quisty, are you going?" Amy asked.
-"Yeah, I don't have anything to do tomorrow and Selphie forced me to come." Quistis plastered a fake smile on her face.
-"Ohh, Quisty, did I tell you that I set up a date with you?" Quistis choked on her toast.
-"You WHAT!?!?!" Quistis screeched, while every one stopped in thier tracks and thier actions to look at a now flustered blonde.
-"Quisty, don't worry, he's the new instructor here and he's such a total hunk." Selphie dreamily sighed.
-Quisty sighed, "Oh, alright. But don't set up blind dates anymore."
Selphie again, squealed in her seat happy to know that her plan with Trent and Quistis would happen.
-"Well, I've got to go and get some things to prepare and start tutoring Mr. Personality over there later tonight." Quistis sighed.
Quistis couldn't believe that the majority of Balamb Garden opened their arms to Seifer so quickly right after he was re-admitted to Blamab Garden. Although, Zell was outraged about the fact he was re-admitted and Rinoa was a bit uncomfortable about Seifer because of his recent actions he has done to her. But Quistis couldn't really believe that Selphie was so calm about it, she thought she would be the angriest towards Seifer because he destroyed her home, but surprisingly she took it quite easy. Well, I guess they were with open arms because Edea was readmitted into Balamb Garden as vice-headmaster. So
-"Alright, see you tomorrow at the ball. Oh! Trent will pick you up at eight o' clock. Remember that!" Selphie said.
She left the cafeteria, and walked to the library. Along the way, she was thinking about Seifer. She felt a pang of pain inside her chest, she missed that warmth and nobody touched her the way Seifer did. It was comforting. But she knew nobody would be her knight in shining armor because she was not made to be loved. Not that she was madly in love with Seifer, he was just so warm and welcoming it felt good to be needed. No, she wouldn't love again anymore because her heart would break again.
Arriving at the library, she was welcomed with silence. She went down the aisles of the library looking for books on Junctioning, finding what she was looking for, she checked out the thick book and went off to look for Seifer. Checking her watch, lunch ended minutes ago, so Seifer should be in one of his classes. I'll give it to him later, Quistis thought.
Getting out of class, Seifer yawned after the lecture Instructor Garth gave him and the rest of the cadets. Thanking Hyne, it was last period. He rushed over to his dorm to get out of the hell hole and go out and have some fun. Smirking, he went off to go to his dorm and change out of his cadet uniform and into his usual attire.
The rebel Seifer he is, the blonde snuck passed the entrance guard of the Garden and relieved that he got out safely out of Mr. Lawson's view. Smirking, he sauntered out of the entrance, Hyperion at his side just in case if he ran into any monsters that would be in his way. At last, out of Balmab Garden's gates, he was surprised to find none other than Quistis Trepe laying on the vast pine green hills of Balamb.
Quietly, he made himself into stealth mode, curious to see why his beloved ex-instructor on the fields of Balamb that night. Hyne, she looks beautiful, Seifer thought. His piercing green emerald eyes were set upon her.
The moonlight was cast upon Quistis' flawless skin making it somehow glow in the night. She looked like a fairy Matron used to describe in the stories she would tell the children at night back in the orphanage. Once he neared the breathless beauty, he was abruptly at loss for words. Instead, Quistis looked up to see cat green eyes with deep cerulean blues.
-"Uh...hey..." Seifer mumbled.
-"Hi..." Quistis sheepishly replied.
Shocked, Seifer was surprised to not see the cold, ice frigid bitch she was back in garden, but he saw the real Quistis Trepe, the little girl inside of her back from the Orphanage days. He liked this side of Quistis. If only, she brought out this side of her in the Garden. Laying down beside her. Both enjoyed the view and their silences.
Quistis was not so surprised to see Seifer out of Garden after curfew, it was so him, even after the Ultimecia affair. Although she was surprised that Seifer didn't leave her to do her own businesses. But she was glad someone was beside her to look at the stars with her. It felt so right. So--
-"Quistis?" Seifer asked.
-"Hmm?"
-"Sorry about that...you know...earlier..."
Quistis was at lost for words. Seifer was apologizing, not the arrogant cocky bastard that he is, but the sincere and gentle Seifer. She was so foreign to this side of him. Wanting to know more, she scooted closer to the blonde man but not too close, if they would be uncomfortable. Closing her eyes, she smiled. It's been a while since I smiled, Quistis thought.
Seifer noticed her scoot closer to him. Taking it as he was forgiven, he himself scooted closer to her. Two pairs of eyes still locked at the sight of the sky. It was a clear dark sky, that night. The stars seemed to be extra brighter than before. It was so peaceful.
-"Hey." Quistis said.
-"Hmm?"
-"Uh, are you going to the Masquerade tommorow night?"
-"Nah." Seifer said.
Quistis' features turned into a disappointed look.
-"Oh."
-"Why? Are you going?" Seifer asked.
-"Selphie made me come." Quistis chuckled.
Seifer smiled at the fact Quistis was chuckling. He wanted to see more of the real Quistis Trepe. Even though, he sometimes enjoyed the Ice Bitch himself. He and she would always quarrel in the classroom back then. At the thought of that, Seifer chuckled as well.
Surprised to see Seifer laughing, Quistis was even more interested to know the real Seifer behind the fiery wall of arrogance and cockiness. Her eyes suddenly felt droopy, smiling she snuggled into the warmth and closed her eyes, suddenly feeling happy.
-"Quistis?" Seifer quietly asked, but found her asleep on his arm. She looks so beautiful, Seifer thought.
Sighing, Seifer felt his eyes droop as well. It had been a tiring day and the forecast said it wouldn't rain tonight. Funny, why do I suddenly feel this sleepy, Seifer thought, he and Quistis slept under the stars that night. Grinning at the fact that his ex-instructor was cuddling with him under the cold dark blanket they called the night sky.
Hours passed, it was early, probably 5 a.m. The sun was about to rise, as it setted a sleek golden line across the blue horizon. A young blonde girl fluttered her eyes, slightly disorientated. Trying to figure out the environment around her, her eyes widen at the sight of a man beside her, and that man is-- SEIFER!?!!? Quistis screamed in her mind.
Although, trying to remember what happaned last night, she was calming herself down. Clothes are still on...good...blissful happiness...amazing, Quistis thought. After collecting herself, she smiled remebering what happened last night. She remembered the stars that night, they were looking down at her and Seifer.
His eyes fluttered as well. He smiled sheepishly looking at the woman in front of him. Beautiful, Seifer thought, looking at Quistis. Quistis was smiling, it made him feel like home looking at that smile.
Quistis chuckled looking at the disheveled blond hair and the sheepish grin Seifer showed. Looking into those piercing eyes, she didn't see the darkness before. Now, she saw the gold flicker in his eyes, those eyes that were from the orphanage days, the days before the Ultimecia affair.
-"Morning." Seifer huskily greeted her with.
-"Morning, Seifer." Quistis said, smiling.
-"Ahem." Cid cleared his throat, while Matron's arm was locked around Cid's arm.
Both blondes that were once gazing into each other's eyes were now furiously blushing. Matron chuckled, while Headmaster Cid glared at both of them. By looking at his face, they both knew that he was infuriated. Matron and Cid would always wake up every morning and go outside to walk on the vast rich green hills of Balamb. But today, a certain sleeping couple was laying on these rich green hills of Balamb. Matron tugged at Cid's arm to cut off the glare he was giving his pupils of Balamb Garden, but there was no avail.
-"And what a fine morning it is today." Cid angrilly said.
-"Sir, I can explain." Quistis said, with the look of nervousness (sp?) in her blue eyes.
-"No need to my dear." Matron said, with a motherly tone.
Both Seifer and Quistis--still furiously blushing--quickly scrambled onto thier feet and hastilly ran as fast as they could from the glare Headmaster Cid was giving them. Reaching at the gates, both were panting and gasping for air. Finally back to tier composures, both couldn't hold thier chuckles and laughs. Both were laughing at the situation that the recently had experience.
-"Just like the old days back at the orphanage, dear." Matron said.
Cid finally calm down form the look on Matron's face. He gave her a chuckle. It seems back in the old days, a little Seifer and little Quistis would stay up and sneak out of the orphanage house and find themselves on the beach, looking up at the stars. Sometimes when mornings came, Cid and Matron would find them nestled together and would quietly bring them back inside the house and lay them on thier beds.
-"Good thing we don't have to carry them back now." Cid joked.
The couple standing infront of the sinrise were chuckling at the joke. Both finally stopped thier joking around and embraced the view.
-"Just like the old days..." Cid whispered into the ear of his wife.A/N: Whoo hoo! Finally, Chapter 7 is completed! I tried to add some humour this time.
