[Seifer's POV]

It's been what.........a week already?

Wow, can't believe time passes that fast.

Yeah, it's been a week since me and Squall had been quarreling.

Are you asking how are things going on between us now?

Oh, good. Never even better than now.

Every time I called his name he replied with a silence.

And you're definitely sure that it is not a very amusing silence.

Even if it's not a silence the reply must be something cold like 'It's not you business' or 'Whatever' or maybe any other 'cold' sentences.

So, ain't that 'good' enough?

And guess what? He has a new hobby!

Well, apart from ignoring me, he likes to go with 'Don Juan' lately. As Samantha, of course.

Oh I swear from his looks he must be very very VERY enjoying it.

But no, not for me.

How can I face the truth that Squall is now with one of my not-very-best- friends?

Can you believe it? It's Irvine! And HE IS WITH SQUALL OF ALL PEOPLE!!!

Squall!! My lover. My true love. My all.

MY SQUALL

How am I suppose to do now? No matter how many times I've apologized, not even once he ever tried to forgive me.

Does he hate me now? Because I slapped him, then he hates me, threw me away like a broken doll and hastily gets a new one?

Of course I'd understand if he's mad at me because I –unwillingly- slapped him, but.........

Despite all that we've been through.........

Is that how easy people can hate others?

Is THAT how easy Squall can hate me?

If it is, then why can't do the same?

Why can't I hate him, no matter how many times I've tried............?

.........

"Morning, guys!" a raven haired girl entered the cafeteria, followed by greetings from her friends.

"What's new?"

"Nothing. Just an ordinary though day......" she sighed, "anyway, Seifer, how're you and Squall now? Any improvement?" but the blond remained silent.

"Oh, guess that's a 'no', right?" Rinoa sighed, "he still like to act as Samantha and flirt with Irvine for a week already, and there's no progress in your relationship. I know it's hard, but you see, we're always here to support you......erm......even though we don't know what to do but yeah, still, we always support you." she said, feeling proud for saying such long words.

"Thanks Rinoa," Seifer said.

"By the way, I haven't seen those lovey-dovey-coup............mmmmrrf!!" unable to finish his sentence, his friends already plug Zell's mouth with ALL hotdogs they can grab.

"Urfff! Urgh......!!!" (translation = "I can't breathe!!!")

:::Remember, don't say anything related to peace and love, okay? You'll hit Seifer on his nerve!::: Selphie screamed at him silently (A/N : Like it can be done) and he can only nodded frantically; the hotdogs almost choke him to death while the lack of oxygen almost made his lungs ripped out of his body. And believe me his face is all red that it almost look the same as the brightest apple I've aver seen. Lucky that (if you consider this to be lucky) Rinoa and Quistis help him drink while (they don't want to let Zell threw up the hotdogs, especially NOT from his mouth!! So otherwise they made him swallow the food)

"Gulp......gulp......ughaaaah! Oh, I'm saved......er, I mean......I see......well then......I m- mean, I haven't seen both Irvine and Squall. Where the hell could they be wondering in this kind of time?"

"That's true, I haven't seen them since yesterday afternoon either. Hasn't Irvine finished with his 'tour guide'?"

"Yeah like there's a lot of highlights in Balamb......oh my God......the last time I saw them was when I was at my Mom's home......I mean MY home......which the location is close to the blacksmith.........and...............and which was close to the hotel............OH MY GOD! Have they finally make ou......OOOWWW!!!" again, the dumb blond got smacked on his head by the 'three musketeers'.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?!?!?!?" oh good, this time he really got Seifer on his nerves.

"Seifer, calm down! Zell just mentioned that he saw them near the blacksmith......"

"And the blacksmith's place is near the hotel, so is there any other reason to make me mad like this!?!?!?" Seifer stood immediately, "I'll definitely take him back!"and he left.

"Good genius you made him all mad!" Rinoa scowled.

"But I didn't say anything wrong! It was just my postulation, so what's wrong with THAT!? And he said he's gonna take Squally back, isn't that good??"

"Oh just shut up, Zell!!" and the three women left him, all mad.

"Geez, women really is complicated........." (A/N : Or is it that you're just stupid? OW! got smacked by Zell's fans)

.........

In the dim luminosity of a bar somewhere in Balamb (A/N : I know there's no bar in Balamb, but let's just make there's one, ok?) a figure of a feline woman, side by side with a good-looking guy was present. And who is she if it's no other than our hero/ine : Samantha Graveheart! And the male figure is of course the lady killers; Irvine Kinneas. And now we can see that his arm is stretch around the 'woman's' slim waist.

[Squall's POV]

"What would you like to have, Sir?" the bartender asked politely.

"Ah, I'll have a bottle of Haineken (A/N : Now where the hell did I get the idea of matching Haineken with Irvine??). What would be your choice, Samantha?"

"I'll just have coke, thanks." don't laugh, I know I'm not keen to any kinds of alcohol, but softdrink and other non-alcohols is a whole lot different story.

Then the bartender turned around and started collecting our drinks, which was done in an incredibly short time.

"I guess I have nothing more to tell you about this small town," Irvine said before he took a sip of his Haineken, "so, have anywhere you want to go next?"

"I......uh, no......" I don't know what to say. Or maybe the word 'I don't have anything to say' is a lot more assimilate with me. I knew this town to well, toooooooo well that I knew a lot more than this guide beside me.

"Well, then I guess it'll be fine if we rest here for a while." again he said.

Sigh. So it's been a week already. I myself felt surprised to found a week has passed already. Am I really that tough? Can't believe it. So, how is Seifer now? It's been three, no, four days since the last time he called me. I realized I maybe acted too cold towards him but hey, all blames go to him! He's the one who started all this, and it's all his faults too if it ended up like this! Urgh, the thoughts of him alone are just enough to make my head spin. But still, deep inside I want to go to him, see him, and embrace him just like what I used to do.

But then again, I don't think I'll be able to do them after what he has done to me. God I still can't believe he really used me just to take Quistis' heart in the end. And now while thinking of all we've been through, waves of emotions rushed through my heart and I almost choke and cry and gone mad right here right now. I love him so much, so much that I'd rather die slowly and painfully for him. But knowing that his love was no more than just lust and manipulation, my heart crashed into million pieces. The day when he slapped me, I felt broken straight away. But then when I realize Irvine was there to hold me, he was there when I needed warm, he was there where Seifer wasn't. And suddenly, I felt loved.

I know this might sound crazy, but I started to enjoy this game too well.

I know that he had stolen my heart, but to say I'm in love with him......maybe I should think about that. I don't know if I love him, but it feels good whenever he's around (not to mention every time he babbles in his boring tour, but still it feels good astonishingly)

But oh no, what would he do if he found out that this was all a game?

What will he do I he discovered that I'm a guy? Furthermore his own friend!

Will he leave me?

Will I be alone again?

No, I don't want that to happen! But somehow I know this game won't last forever, so what will his reactions be?

No, please don't! I don't what that to happen! I don't want to be alone anymore!! I don't want him to leave me!!

"Samantha?"

His words smacked me out of my daydream. Then I realized his hand was already on my shoulder.

"What's wrong? You've been trembling, are you okay?" then he place his other hand on my temple, and soon after his head were just a few centimeters away from mine, "Are you sick?"

Feeling my cheeks started to burn, I duck away from his touch, "No, I'm fine."

"Oh, it's good then," he smiled, then took another sip of his drink, "by the way Samantha, do you have a boyfriend?"

I shocked from the question. No, I don't even want to think where this conversation is heading. "Why do you ask?"

"Just curious. It must be kind of awkward to find that a very gorgeous sight like you don't have an 'owner'," he said, "So, have anyone by your side?"

Oh God, what should I say? Should I lie? If I say yes, then he'll probably lose interest in me and leave me all alone! But if I say no, he'll keep making his moves on me, and he'll find out sooner that I'm a male. Oh no what should I say??

"You didn't answer my question, Samantha," is he drunk or what? Cause he suddenly snake his arm around my waist tightly......and it couldn't get any worse before it wander around lower to my hips......, "So, yes or no?"

"Um, I......"

Suddenly the silence broke when the door of the bar were slammed open.

"Squall!!!"

.................................And a familiar Seifer Almasy came in.

A/N : How was that? I hope it's not getting all sappy. I really
hate the ending of this chapter since I'm (apparently) low on ideas
now (forgive me everyone, I'm suffering from a quite high fever right
now). And I apologize for being soooooooooooooo late in updating
because there's always problems with my pc.

But I promise I'll try to update as soon as I have time, so never ever
forget to review, or else I'll send my little baby bro to punish you
with his bloody little gunblade! MWAHAHAHAHA!
