CHAPTER 3

The Untitled Chapter

Let's Recap: All I could do now was watch helplessly as she stormed inside my house.

SQUALL'S POV

"Uh…so I guess you're really mad at me now, aren't you—how'd you do that anyway?"

"'How'd I do what?'"

"Break down the door? Was it all the hot air inside your head that did it?"

"NO! I've just been working out, that's all. Why are you laughing at me?"

Oops, I laughed. In front of another person too, but it's so fun to bust this girl's chops.

"I'm not laughing, but you?! Work out?! That's a lie! I put a really strong lock on that door too, and now you have to go and break it? Oh, how wretched you are."

"No it's not a lie! It's true!"

"Oh yeah, prove it. You'll always be poor, weak little Rinny to me."

Oh great. Now I've done it. She's really mad now. Her arms didn't even look like muscles. She should really learn to control her temper. I swear, she's made up of hot air. She breaks things when she's angry. There goes the1000 gil vase I just bought. I didn't like it anyway. Too girly. Maybe I should keep making her angry so she'll break all the ugly stuff I've just bought. She did have a knack for breaking ugly things. She only likes the pretty and cool looking things. I hate her…I think. I mean, she broke my heart after all.

"Shut the hell up, Squall. I have no time for this."

"Like I have no time for you? Look, just stop breaking my things and leave. Take Angelo with you and never come back to bother me again. Leave me to wallow in my own self pity. Oh, how wretched I am. Oh, how wretched I am. Oh, how wretched I am. Oh, how wretche-"

"How wretched you are. I get it. I'm leaving now. Bye!"

Being sarcastic really pays. Hehe, aggravating Rinoa is fun. She deserves my being sarcastic, "ESPECIALLY AFTER WHAT SHE DID TO ME!!"

"What was that? Some girl did something to you? Who?"

"Oops! Did I say that out loud? Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to say that out loud and have the whole world hear me. I thought you were leaving?"

"Oh, yes. I thought I was too, but first I have to find out what some girl did to you."

She smiled kind of weirdly. Like somewhere between an evil grin and a grimace. I know that smile. She's going to start asking me stupid questions now.

"Oh, but you know her already. I should think that she would have TOLD YOU." Because you told yourself!

"Oh yeah…sure, right. You are a cold, twisted, heartless man. WHO IS SHE?"

"Well, if you must know, it was you."

"Me? I didn't do anything to you!"

"Oh yes you did! Now that we've got this figured out, would you mind leaving?"

"Oh fine then. Goodbye forever. I don't know what you're talking about."

"Good, so now you can leave. Bye, Rinoa."

I shoved her over to the doorstep, but no-o, she just had to ask me something that happened that she already knew happened. (a/n: That doesn't make sense, oh well, on with the story!)

"Wait, wait, wait. So you're telling me that I did something to you? Squall, I would never do anything to hurt you. I love you, you know that."

"You love me? Geez, you have to cone up with so many excuses. First, you break up with me because you're 'not in love with me anymore' and now you're here telling me that you love me?! Hah! Like I'd believe that what you just said was true!"

"Did I really do that to you? I don't remember doing that at all. Oh Squall, I'm so sorry for what I did to you…can't we just go back to the way things were before this happened?"

How could she not know what had happened? Maybe she's just toying with me. Wait; go back to the way things were?

"Oh-? You're so sorry? Well, isn't that so nice to know? If we go back to the way things were, then how would I know that we won't have a repeat of what happened?"

"Well we'll just have to find out, won't we?"
