CHAPTER TWO:

CONFESSIONS

Quistis and Seifer stayed up all night and talked. It was 3am when they both fell asleep.

After a few hours, Seifer was the one who was up first. He stared at the unique beauty sleeping beside him.

"You know. You are the most damn beautiful thing I have ever set my eyes on, Quistis Trepe. And I know its not me to have a crush on someone who has once become my instructor and enemy but now, I am admitting that I have a crush on you. You are so beautiful, smart, strong, and kind. I like that about you. You should learn to laugh and smile a lot. And you should put on clothes like the ones you're wearing because it looks good on you." Seifer said as he started talking to the sleeping Quistis.

"Couple more of these nights out and I'll fall in love with you already Quis. Please catch me if I fall" he continued.

Quistis turned her back on Seifer as she was pretending to sleep again. And once sure that Seifer can't see her face, she smiled.

Seifer snaked an arm across Quistis' waist and pulled her close to him. He smelled her hair. The fresh scent of raspberry filled his nose. He is crazy to that smell now.

"Seif? Morning!" Quistis greeted as she faked an i-just-woke-up-look and turned around.

"Morning Quis" he replied.

"Were you hugging me the entire night?"

"How should I know?" he replied.

"Ow."

"Please, let it be Quis. I could really use some hug" Seifer said.

Quistis didn't object. Instead, she hugged him.

"What time is it?"

"10am"

Riingggg Riiingggg!!!

"Hello?" Quistis said the moment she got hold of her bag and got her cellphone

"Quistis? This is Headmaster Cid. Where are you"

"I'm at Seifer's"

"Oh.. Could you report to my office now? Its urgent."

"Ok"

"OK thanks. Bye"

"Bye" Quistis said as she hung up the phone.

"I have to go Seif. Cid wants me in his office. It was a lovely night Seif. Thanks" Quistis said as she kissed Seifer in the cheeks.

"I'll bring you to the gate" Seifer said as he ushered Quistis outside the door.

"I'll visit you more often ok? Byebye!"

"Bye!"

Quistis rode a taxi. She could not help but smile widely as she was thinking about what Seifer told her while she was pretending to be asleep.

The taxi arrived at Balamb Garden in no time. And wasting no second, Quistis went to the Headmaster's Office immediately.

She greeted Xu and knocked at the doors.

"Come in" the headmaster's voice said through the intercom.

"Good Morning Headmaster"

"oh!! Good Morning Quistis dear" Cid said. "I'm sorry to interrupt you and Seifer's time together but this is important"

"Go right ahead sir"

"Quistis, I need you to go to the Fisherman's Horizon and check out the situation there. I have been informed that Galbadian soldiers stayed there and is now conspiring to bring havoc once again. Please find out the identities of these soldiers and capture them for they are big threats." Cid explained

"Ok sir. But, am I going there alone?" Quistis asked

"No. You can bring whoever you like. In fact, I suggest you bring Seifer. If there's anyone in Balamb who knows every detail about FH, its him" Cid said with a big smile.

"But, he's not SeeD sir"

"It's alright."

"Okay Sir, I'll inform him right away. Thank You Sir" Quistis said as she saluted and happily went back to her dorm room and packed her stuff.

"Quistyyyy!!!!!!" Selphie greeted her as soon as the elevator doors opened.

"Selph!! Hi!!!" Quistis greeted

"How are youuuu?? Where have you been?"

"Uhm... I was at Seifer's"

"All night??" the brunette asked enthusiastically

"Uhm, Selph, I'd stay and chat but I've got a mission so I have to go pack my stuff. See you when I get back okay? I'll miss you!" Quistis said as she gave her friend a big hug.

"Hey what's with the hug?" Zell said and Quistis saw the rest of the gang walking after him.

"Quisty's gonna be out on a mission" Selphie declared

"Alone?" Rinoa asked

"Nope. I'm with Seifer" Quistis replied

"But, he's not a SeeD" Squall objected

"That's the same thing I told Cid. But he said it's ok anyway. So, I have to go pack my stuff now" Quistis said as she gave all of them hugs. "I won't be out for long. I'll miss you guys!" she said as she walked to her room.

She opened her door and was surprised to see Seifer sitting in her bed, complete with duffel bag and wearing his trademark trench coat.

"How did you get in here?" she asked as she walked towards him.

"Miss Trepe, it's so easy to hack in your door code" Seifer said.

"How did you know about the mission?"

"Cid called me right after he called you so I went in here" He replied

"I'm so thrilled to be going there with you Seif" she said as she took out her duffel bag and packed her things.

"I know, I mean, we always go on our little adventure trips when we were young and now that were all grown up, its not bad that we'll have our own true adventures right?" Seifer said

"Ok all set!" Quistis said as she carried her duffel bag.

"Ok.. lets go Miss Trepe" Seifer said as he carried his and her duffel bag and they both went to the carpark.

"Who's gonna be driving?" Quistis asked

"Me of course" Seifer replied.

"Okay Mr. Almasy..."

And they boarded the car and went to FH for their real adventure.
