Chapter 4: Anywhere
Seifer's POV
I looked down at the shorter brunette as I offered t help him up after I knocked him over. I could feel heat rising in my face as I stared with him returning my gaze. I have been discretely trying to get close to him for a while now. I don't think he's noticed, but it hasn't been working too well. Squall was the one to break the silence that surrounded us.
"I need to get to class..." he said as he began to move around me while I watched for a few moments. I shook myself out of my minor stupor as he treaded off down the hall. Nothing. Maybe he didn't ride that bike. But then again maybe he would fall for a guy. I didn't know but I needed to find out.
Making my decision, I turned and headed for my math class, which I was currently excused from, luckily. I knocked on the locked door for entrance back into the class that I would much rather not be in. The door opened and I walked in and took my seat and half-listened to the ramblings of my math teacher. "X this and Y x that" is all that the lessons were about. But that's no surprise.
I yawned and placed my chin in my hand and rested it on the desk as I waited for class to get out. Of course there was a homework assignment, like always. Oh well. It didn't matter. I was too busy concocting a plan to get Squall close. The only thing is, is that I currently had no idea how to go about it.
The bell rang and I broke out of my thoughts. Everyone rose from their seats, me included, and filed out the door into the hallway. I made my way through the sea of people to my locker. I put in the combo on the lock and pulled it open. I exchanged my books and slammed the locker shut again.
The sea of people had hardly thinned when I moved towards the stairs to go to my evil history class. I swear that teacher has it in for me. She absolutely hates me.
I entered the classroom and looked around quick to pick out a seat when I saw Squall sitting in the back corner. Nonchalantly, I walked to the back of the room and occupied the seat to his right.
I stole a glance at him without turning my head. He seemed nervous. He took a deep, almost trembling breath. I couldn't help it. I smirked. I made him nervous by sitting next to him. That's a good sign. Isn't it?
Squall's POV
I watched as Seifer made his way into the classroom and took the seat next to me. I turned my glance forward, not wanting to draw any attention to myself. I took a deep, shaky breath.
Carefully, I looked in Seifer's direction not wanting to pull his attention. Why I even cared if he noticed or not, I don't know, but something just told me not to draw his attention. There was a great big smirk planted on his face, but why? I turned again to the front of the room and stared forward.
The rest of the period went pretty uneventful. That is until something moving to my right caught my attention. I turned my head only to find my gaze locked with that of Seifer. We sat like that for what seemed like an eternity when we both shot our glances back forward. I could feel the crimson shade rising in my face.
I dared not look right throughout the rest of the math class. Eventually the bell rang and everyone filed out of the classroom. Again, I was lost in a sea of people. I reached my locker eventually and made my exchange before heading off down the hall to my next class.
The rest of the day went smoothly, just an average, ordinary day. Eventually the end came and everyone started leaving the building. I walked alone down the street in the direction in which I live. I felt like someone was following me as I walked. I didn't look back though and dismissed it as nothing. Why would someone follow me?
Oh how wrong I was. I began to hear the footsteps of another behind me, gradually getting closer. I stopped and turned around to see who was following me, but all I found was a fist flying straight at me.
Upon being struck, I staggered backwards. "What the fuck?!" I yelled at the man that stood before me. He was tall, probably about 6'4". He had dark, almost black, hair. There was a scar going across his right eye. He wore a big, black trench coat that covered most of his body except for his feet. What the hell? I thought, unable to place why I was attacked. "It's your turn to die now, pretty boy." the man said in a deep voice. I immediately recognized it. That voice that was burned into my ears. It was one of those men. They had come back for me.
Let's just say that if looks could kill, he'd be dead at least five times by now with the look I was giving him. He came at me again, but I landed a well aimed kick right in his stomach. The man staggered a bit and began digging around in his coat.
The man pulled out a black handgun. I stopped as he pointed the gun at me. Slowly, I backed up. It seemed that he had me, but I had a plan. I backed in front of the entrance to an alley. There were plastic crates stacked up against the wall of one of the buildings that made the alley. I discretely grabbed one.
"That's enough. No further." the man told me. I stopped. I pulled the crate out from the stack and promptly hurled it at the man. It struck him in the chest, causing him to stagger. I took my chance and bolted down the alley. I heard the man curse loudly behind me and give chase.
I heard a gunshot ring out as I turned the corner. As I turned, I knocked over a few stacks of those plastic crates. I couldn't tell if he fell or not. I was paying too much attention to getting away from him. I darted out into the street ahead of me. I heard a car come screeching to a stop next to me and I turned to face it. Close, it stopped just a few inches in front of me.
"Hey watch it- ...Squall?" came the voice of the male driver of the car. It was Seifer. "Seifer? I said. I turned to see if the man was following and he responded by firing at me. Even though he was still more than halfway down the block, his shot struck me in my left arm.
"What the hell?!" Seifer exclaimed.
"There's some freak chasing me down." I responded as I clutched my arm in pain.
"Get in." Seifer commanded, motioning to the passenger side. I blinked and did as he said. It was better than running and possibly getting caught.
I pulled the door open with my bloodied right hand and climbed in. I clenched my left arm again where I had been shot.
"Ok, here we go." Seifer said as he put on the gas. We flew down the road, definitely exceeding the limit, but who cared. I looked back to see the man staring disgustedly down the road at us.
We continued for a good distance. Seifer had turned a few times to make it more confusing for the man to follow. Finally, he stopped.
Seifer looked at me, "What was that all about?" he demanded.
"It's complicated..." I said as I looked down at my arm.
A frustrated look came over the blonde's face. "... Well let's get you to a hospital." he said as he got ready to pull back out onto the road.
"No." I protested.
Seifer looked at me puzzled. "Ok..." he still pulled out. I was beginning to feel lightheaded and dizzy. I clenched my had around my injury tighter. It hurt a lot more, but it would hopefully prevent more blood from escaping.
After a few minutes, Seifer pulled into a driveway of a house I didn't recognize. "Where are we?" I asked.
"I live here." he replied straightly. Seifer pushed his door open and climbed out. I remained where I was. "Well, c'mon." he said. I shrugged and followed him in the house.
"Sit there." he said as he pointed to a chair sitting around a table. I obediently did as I was told. Seifer disappeared into some room somewhere. I sat in the chair with my eyes closed and my hand still clutching my wound.
After a few minutes, I felt a hand gently pull my hand off of my arm. I opened my eyse and looked over to see Seifer with some bandages beside me. I blushed at how close he was getting and looked away.
"Ok now this is gonna hurt..." he said. A puzzled look came over my face until I felt him digging around in my arm. I clenched my teeth. The pain was incredible, but it ended quick. Seifer pulled his hand out and let the bullet fall on the table.
Soon after, he reached for the bandages and began to wrap my wound tightly with them.
Eventually he finished bandaging my arm and set the bandages on the table. The blonde stood up and looked down at the me. "I think you owe me an explanation." he said firmly.
I looked away and said nothing. "Squall... Why was that man trying to kill you?" Seifer demanded.
"I don't want to get you involved." I replied softly. He looked down at me and raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean you don't want to get me involved?" he asked, his voice getting more demanding.
I stood up and turned to face him. I opened my mouth to say something but was silenced when Seifer's lips met mine.
