Author's note: Argh, busy busy busy... I dunno if I'll ever finish all three stories, but hey, I'll do my best...

to Iskander : I hope so... :)

to Shadow-Seraph : Yup, it's gonna be weird :P

to Lizzie : I almost forgot about her, to be honest :P Hope everyone believes you, I'll try to remember to put it in the next chap.

to Greyon Hell : Of course they're both cool n cute, well at least Seifer's cool, so Squall can be cute, eh? :) I'm not planning on making Ellone the bad guy here..... :)

Where's my oh-so-lovely Dream-Kingdom? :P

-Seifer's POV-

A couple of hours later we reach Balamb Garden. Ellone keeps talking 'bout what's happened to her during these years and how great it is to see us again and how long has it been? Ten years? Oh my, that's a long time and it's so great to see you guys again and... sigh.

"Seif?"

"Huh?"

"She asked you if you're seeing anyone?"

I glance at the curious, smiling girl. "Yeah, yeah I am."

Her eyes and smile widen. "Oh that's so nice. Who's the lucky girl?"

"Squall," I mumble and head for the dorms.

"Seifer!"

I slowly turn around to face Sis running to me.

"I'm sorry if I hurt you somehow, Seifer," she says. "I didn't mean to. If you don't wanna tell me who it is, that's okay, I totally understand---"

"No, I just told you. It's Squall," I say and leave her standing there.

-Squall's POV-

"So... it's true?"

I nodd.

"How.... long... have you..."

I shrug. "'bout three, four years."

"Whoa, that's... that's a pretty long time."

I nodd. "Yup."

"So ugh... how did you... discover these feelings for each other?"

I shrug. "I dunno, it's just always been there. When we were kids I wasn't sure whether to hate him or admire him or try to be his best friend or what I was supposed to do."

"So you chose to love him?"

"I didn't choose it. Love cannot be chosen."

"But he loves you too... right?"

I nodd. "Right."

"For... real?"

I look at her. This is common, everybody thinks Seifer has no feelings and is incapable of doing anything that isn't selfish. "For real."

She smiles and sighs lightly. "Well that's good then. How's the SeeD-life going?"

I shrug. "Well, guess. A lot of action."

"That's what you wanted, right?"

"Yeah...."

"So have you seen Laguna lately?"

I look at her and frown. "Who?"

She looks a little confused. "Ugh... Laguna... Laguna Loire... your ugh..."

"Mine ugh what?"

She glances around the room and licks her lips nervously. "You mean... you don't know?"

I shift in my chair. "Know what?"

She pulls back and looks uneasy.

"Sis...? What am I supposed to know 'bout this Laguna you're talking about?"

"He... he's..." She sighs deep. "Laguna Loire is your father."

My... father..? I have a.. father?

I swallow hard. "I have a.. father? For real?"

She nodds, smiling just a little. "Yeah, Squall, yes you do. And he's very anxious to see you after all these years."

All these years... My father, after all these years... Hey hold on just a sec. Where the hell has he been all these years? Why hasn't he contacted me? If Ellone knows I'm a SeeD and knows him, why doesn't this Laguna-person know it? Why hasn't he come here?

Which leads to me thinking..... why is she here?
