Musical SpellChapter 8: A Spell?
Squall and Rinoa walked into his office. Squall sat down in his comfy chair while Rinoa took out his black phone book from a filling-cabinet.
"Here it is Squall!" she said walking towards him and handling it to him.
"I hope she knows something," said Squall dialing the number…
Ring… Ring… Ring…"Hello?" said a male voice.
"Good morning Headmaster, It's Squall…"
"Oh Squall! –Said Cid in direction to Edea, she looked at him worried- Don't call me headmaster, remember that you are the headmaster now. Is everything alright in Garden?"
"I know I'm the headmaster –he rolled his eyes- but it must be the custom of saying it…mmm… About Garden, something really weird is happening and we don't have any clue why or how it happened" stated Squall.
"Well… tell me!" exclaimed the ex Headmaster.
Squall looked at Rinoa, "Ok… A few days ago everyone in Garden is at any time during the day singing and it's very annoying… Like we're talking and all of a sudden someone starts singing…"
"THE STUDENTS TOO??" shouted Cid looking at Edea.
"Yes, do you know what could be happening?" asked the brown-haired boy.
"One minute Squall, maybe Edea will know if anything's happening. I'm going to ask her," said Cid.
"So? He knows something?" asked excitedly Rinoa.
"He's going to ask Matron if she knows something," whispered Squall.
"Hi Matron"
"Squall, how are you? It's a pleasure-" greeted Edea but was interrupted by the headmaster.
"Matron do you know?" asked impatiently Squall.
Edea smiled "Always to the point, you've not changed in that. Ok, what I think about Garden is that maybe someone casted some sort of spell in the Garden"
"A spell?" asked Squall looking at Rinoa and then looking through the window to the beach.
"Yes… Squall right now I'm a bit busy so can we continue talking later?" requested the former sorceress.
"Alright… thanks Matron. Bye" he hung up and looked at his girlfriend.

Later, at 10 am, Squall, Rinoa, Zell, Claire, Quistis and Seifer were having breakfast in the cafeteria, in their usual table.
"What do you mean that someone casted a spell on us, puberty boy?" asked Seifer, Quistis poked him in the arm.
"As you hear it, she told me that maybe someone casted a spell, I find it very weird but is the only way" said Squall taking a sip from his coffee.
Zell looked at the cafeteria's entrance. Irvine and Selphie walked happily in, holding hands. He waved his hand at them. Irvine spotted him and walked Selphie towards their table.
"Good Morning!" said the longhaired man, taking of the hat off his head.
"You look very happy today," commented Rinoa.
Selphie smiled and showed her friends her index finger. All of them looked open-mouthed. She danced a little and suddenly…
"He proposed to me
He proposed with a diamond ring
I started crying
He placed it on my finger and I said yes
He proposed to me
My baby proposed with a diamond ring
I couldn't believe it I looked in his eyes and I said yes"
Rinoa, Claire and Quistis stood up and hugged her. Zell looked at Irvine.
"I told ya she was going to say yes"
Everybody sat down again. Irvine ordered their breakfast to one of the cafeteria ladies. He hugged Selphie and looked at Squall "So what were you talking about?"
"I called Matron –Rinoa looked at him- because Rinoa told me and-"
Suddenly Squall stopped talking and looked to a red haired girl who was on a table singing a love song to a boy. Everyone turned around to look at her.
"… one I wanna love
You are the one I'm dreaming of
Whenever I'm down
And feeling lonely
You are there to hold me"
She got down of the table and continued singing, now hugging the boy.
With you all my troubles are gone
You are the one I wanna love
You are the one I'm dreaming of
Whenever I'm down
And feeling lonely
You are there to hold me
With you all my troubles are gone
You are"
The cafeteria was silent. Everyone was looking at her. She looked at her sides and noticed that everyone's eyes were on her and also she was hugging the boy.
"Sorry" the girl said before running from the cafeteria thinking 'Devour me Earth'
Everyone returned to their activities.
"Alright, as I was saying Matron told me maybe it was a spell someone casted on us" explained Squall to Irvine.
"Poor girl…" said Rinoa giggling.
Quistis took a sip from her orange juice and looked at her friends "But who would have done anything like that and why?"
Irvine rubbed his hands "So? A spell?"
"I like this!" said Selphie excitedly "I mean, the singing… We should also dance!"
Everyone at the table looked at her.
"No! Selphie, no! This is very annoying" assured Seifer looking at her "Thanks Hyne, I've been immune to it"
"Your time will come … It will come… and I'll laugh a lot!" predicted Zell laughing. Everyone at the table laughed.
Squall stood up "Well… I gotta go to my office, I didn't finished some work last night and I have to finish it. Bye Angel" he said kissing Rinoa on her forehead "Bye guys…" mumbled before leaving the cafeteria.
"I think that the spell is pure bullsh-" was Seifer saying when Quistis poked his elbow "Seifer, for once could you not talk like that?"
Zell laughed and Seifer looked at him with the shut-the-hell-up-or-I'll-kill-you glare. "Well… gotta go!" said nervously Zell before running out of the cafeteria.
Seifer smirked.
"Do you think I didn't saw how you looked at him?" questioned angrily Quistis.
"Oh c'mon Quisty… don't get angry," said Seifer. Irvine, Selphie and Rinoa exchanged glares.
"Selphie, Rinoa let's leave the lovebirds alone," said Irvine, pulling Selphies and Rinoas chairs.
"Don't worry, Irvine. I'm going also," said Quistis standing up. Seifer grabbed her hand.
"Wait, you're not going anywhere"
Quistis looked at him "Seifer, we don't have anything to talk about. Bye"
Irvine, Selphie, Rinoa and Quistis were making their way out of the noisy cafeteria when Seifer stood up and walking towards them, started singing.
"Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
Down to Balamb Town
You know I love you so
Baby please don't go"
Quistis turned to look at Seifer and replied to him singing.
"'Cause the way you look at me
I can say you set me free
And no matter what you say
I won't go away
I won't go away"
Seifer looked at everyone in the cafeteria who was, now, looking at them, grabbed Quistis hand and got out of there as fast as he could.
"Seifer!" yelled Quistis before being pulled by the ex-night.
Irvine, Selphie and Rinoa looked at each other trying not to laugh. Rinoa was the first to laugh, followed by Selphie and then Irvine.
"Hahaha… did you…did you see Seifers face after he sang?"
"Yeah, poor Seifer. It's a shame Zell wasn't here to see him" said Selphie and the three of them started laughing again.
"Ok girls –Irvine said seriously- I think it's not right to be laughing like this at him" He looked at the girls and hugged Selphie "We should also tell Zell about it"
Rinoa and Selphie shouted excitedly "YES!"
"Alright, I'm going to tell Squall. Bye!" said the sorceress before leaving the cafeteria.
"It's Ok Rin, we'll tell Zell!" yelled Selphie at her friend.
