Chapter Five

Irvine woke up the next morning and got dressed. He looked over at his two companions. They both seemed to have a light bruise on their cheeks. It looked the like the pair had got into a fight. 'I'll ask them about it after I wake up.' Thought the cowboy. Irvine shook the pair to wake them up. Zell rubbed his eyes and stretched. He arched his back till it cracked. Irvine cringed at the sound. "Why do you always do that?" He asked.

"Because it always annoys you." Replied Zell as he stood up.

Leon was a bit harder to wake up. Irvine shook the brunette's shoulder. Nothing. He tried again only harder. Nothing. Zell tried to shake Leon wake too but to no anvil. Irvine ticked Leon. Nothing. Zell jumped on Leon. Nothing. Irvine got a wicked idea. "Lick him." He said. Zell looked down at the sleeping brunette. Lick him? Should he really do that? Irvine looked at Zell, who wasn't moving. "Lick him or I'll touch him." Irvine said. Zell knew perfectly well what Irvine was up to. So he licked Leon's cheek. Leon stirred and Zell jumped off the brunette. The sleeping brunette rolled onto his back but didn't wake up. "Kiss him." Said Irvine with a sly smile.

Zell shook his head. "No way." He hissed.

"Why not? You know you want to." Said Irvine has he crossed his arms over his chest. Zell didn't want to give Irvine the satisfaction of knowing that he was right; for a change. Zell didn't move though, even thought he did want to kiss Leon he won't do it while the guy was sleeping. Irvine made a move towards Leon. Zell stopped him and silently said that he would kiss the sleeping brunette.

Zell moved closer to the bed and leaned over Leon's body. Zell gently placed his lips on Leon's. The blonde was about to move away when he felt the youth beneath him try to deepen the kiss and Zell let him. Irvine watched the goings on with an amused smirk. Slowly Zell pulled and away and opened his eyes to meet sleepy steel grey ones. Zell jumped back about a few feet and Leon crawled on the bed till his back was against the wall. Both males couldn't look like other in the eyes and both had blushes across their faces. Zell looked at the ground.

"I'm sorry. It wasn't my idea." Zell pointed to Irvine who was laughing loudly. "It was all his idea. He said if I didn't kiss you then he was going to grope you, and I didn't think you would have wanted that." Zell spoke very quickly and it took a minute for Leon to come to his senses. He briefly touched his lips. It had been his first ever kiss. But the one thing he wasn't willing to admit to himself or anyone else was that he had actually enjoyed it. Really enjoyed it.

"Umm… Thanks, for letting him not grope me." Said Leon as he glared at Irvine. Zell smiled slightly.

"No problem." Zell grabbed his clothes and started to get dressed. Leon followed suit and got dressed himself. The two packed their bags again.

Irvine watched the pair, his eyes locked on the red marks on their cheeks from the night before. "So why have you both got red marks on your faces?" The cowboy asked as he sat down on his already packed luggage.

Zell froze, unsure of what to say. He didn't need to though. "I went sleepwalking last night and was about to jump off the boat. Zell found me. I punched him by accident and gave him the mark on his cheek. Zell punched me to wake me up and that's how I got my mark." Said Leon still packing his bag.

Irvine happy with the explanation picked up his bag. "That makes sense. I'll meet you both on deck." Zell turned to face Leon as soon as Irvine left the room.

"Thanks, for not telling him I slapped you. He wouldn't have let me life it down." Leon stopped packing and turned to Zell.

"I guess this makes us even then." Leon smiled slightly and went back to packing, completely missing the slight blush that came to Zell's cheeks.

The trio made their way through Esther with Irvine in the lead. The cowboy suddenly stopped and the other two hit into his back.

"Don't tell me you forgot the way again?" Asked Zell. Irvine laughed nervously and scratched the back of his neck. Zell rolled his eyes. "Follow me."

It wasn't long before they were in front of a grand house. Irvine knocked on the door. The door was opened by a short girl with short brown-hair that flicked out at the bottom. She smiled and her bright green eyes shinned. "Hi. Ahh!"

The girl was rudely pushed out of the way by a tall man who leaned against the doorframe. His short blonde hair seemed to shine in the sunlight. His forest green eyes never once left Irvine's. "Irvine." He purred huskily.

"Seifer." Irvine purred back. Irvine ran in grabbing Seifer hand and they both ran up the stairs. The brunette girl came back to the door brushing down her maids-uniform.

She smiled to Zell and nodded to him in greeting. She turned to Leon and smiled brightly at him. "Are you Zell's new fuck-toy?" She asked.

"Selphie!" Zell said Sandi lazed.

Leon narrowed his eyes at her. "I am no one's fuck-toy."

Selphie looked a little surprised. "Oh. It just when ever Zell decides he wants to move back home he tends to bring a toy too." Selphie ushered the pair in and closed the door. "Zell has always been like that. Never settling down. Of course never wanting to play uke to anyone would make it difficult. Since not very many men are willing to play uke to someone who is like half their height." Selphie walked them through to a living room and let the two male sit down. "That probably why Zell and Seifer didn't last too long. Although blondes aren't really Zell type; no he like brunettes. He and Irvine never dated. I did date Irvine for a while but then he became too horny for my liking. That how he paired up with Seifer. They two were made for each other." Selphie took a seat across from the pair. Selphie smiled at the two after finishing her ramblings.

Zell glared daggers at her and Leon just looked confused. "Uke?"

Selphie tilted her head. "Do you not know what uke means?" Leon shook his head.

"Irvine and myself were teaching Leon stuff before we came here. We never got that far and we haven't explained anything about girls yet. He didn't even know it was possible for a man to fall in love with other man." Selphie was the one to look confused know. "This is Prince Squall." Introduced Zell. "He was growing up in an orphanage since he was seven."

Selphie smiled and nodded. "That would explain why you don't know anything about sex." She stated.

Leon was a bit fed of the pair talking about him as if he wasn't there. "I am sitting in the same room as you."

Zell and Selphie laughed a little. "Sorry. We haven't seen each other in ages." Said Zell.

Selphie stood up. "Well, let me educate you." Selphie started to walk around the room. "I don't know if you know but Irvine and Seifer are both bi and so I'm I. Zell's gay, which I guess you knew. Quistis, another friend of ours, is my girlfriend. She's a lesbian, which basically means she like girls. You'll meet her later." Selphie waved her hand in dismissal. "Anyway an uke is the submissive one in the relationship. Seme is the dominant one. That's why Zell and Irvine never dated. Irvine likes to switch and Zell always like to be on top. Right Zelly? Why is that?" Selphie said as she stood in front of Zell.

"I'm just proof that height doesn't automatically make you the uke or seme." Said Zell. "Don't call me Zelly." He said as an afterthought.

Selphie laughed lightly and moved to stand in front of Leon. "So your Prince Squall." She took the brunette's hand and pulled him to stand in the middle of the room. She began to walk around him. "You do look a lot like His Majesty, apart from your hair. It's the same colour as The Queen, Raine, my she rest in peace." Selphie stood in front of Leon and pulled him down so that he was looking straight into her eyes at her level. This gave Zell a nice view of Leon ass, which made the blonde blush when he realized he had been staring. Selphie didn't seem to notice though. "Is there any way you can prove that you are who Zell says you are?"

Leon straightened up which made Selphie let his t-shirt go. He slowly took of his necklace. "This is the only reason I'm here."

He handed the necklace to Selphie. She looked at it thoroughly. Even looking at the inscription on the back. The King had told her of the very same necklace that he had given to his son. But His Majesty had also mentioned a ring with the same inscription. "Do you have a ring?" Selphie asked as she handed Leon back the necklace. Leon shook his head.

Zell reached into his pocket and felt the ring he had had since he was seven. He had found it in just after he had left the King and his son. Was the ring really Leon's? Though Zell as he looked at Leon's leather covered back. Was Leon really Prince Squall? Before Zell could say anything else two tall figure came into the room.

Seifer and Irvine came into the room both looking very happy and a little tired. Zell tried to spot, which one was walking funny, but today he couldn't figure it out.

"Are you Zell's new fuck?" Asked Seifer.

"No." Leon said darkly. "I'm straight." The whole room seemed to become deathly quiet. Everyone in the room bar Leon seemed to have noticed Zell finch when Leon said 'straight'. Seifer tried to lightly the mood.

"Sorry about that." The tall man said jokingly. "There are not that many straight people in our group." Leon shrugged it off.

"Anyway… since you were preoccupied with Irvine, I think I should introduce you." Selphie said to Seifer. She took Leon's hand and walked him to Seifer. "Seifer this is Squall. Squall this is the second most horniest person in the world, Seifer."

"Who's the first?" Asked Leon. Selphie smiled brightly and pointed at Zell.

"Hey!" Shouted Zell. "That's not true."

"It is. Irvine how long has it been since Zell's had sex?" Asked Selphie.

"I'd say about a week."

"And before that?"

"A couple of days."

"I rest my case." Selphie said triumphantly.

"Selphie." Said Seifer bringing the girls attention back to him. "Are you sure this is Squall? Have you asked all the questions?"

Selphie shook her head. "Don't need to. Look!" She pulled at Leon's necklace and turned it so Seifer could read it.

"This doesn't prove anything. He could have found it." Said Seifer crossing his arms over his chest.

Selphie, even though she was much smaller than Seifer, stood right in front of him, her arms crossed across her chest. "He looks a lot like the King and Queen."

Green eyes glared into green eyes. "So? Lots of people look like him."

"He has the scar."

"It could be fake or he could have made it himself."

"Why would any one do that? It's stupid."

"Anyway even if he was Squall, His Highness won't see him."

Selphie's arms dropped. "Why not?"

"He's fed up of imposters. He's given up."

"So I came to Esther for nothing?" Said Zell.

"Not for nothing, you got to see all us." Said Selphie cheerfully.

"No matter how much I miss all of you I will never live in Esther." Said Zell as he stood up, feeling a little weird being the only one sitting.

Selphie felt like she was losing all her battles. Where was Quistis when she needed her? Anyway that was off topic. This whole conversation was off topic. "Is there anyway Squall can meet His Highness?" Selphie asked.

Seifer thought about this for a moment. "Balamb Ballet is in Esther tonight. His Majesty has to appear. Maybe then." Selphie hugged Seifer.

"Thank you."

"You better be right."

"I always am." Selphie smiled as she unattached herself from Seifer. Seifer looked at Leon.

"You do look a lot like them. But you need to get your hair cut. Irvine can pass with long hair but it just doesn't suit you." Said Seifer.

"Don't I know it." Replied Leon.

Seifer smiled. "Okay. I'm taking Squall shopping. Umm… Squall isn't your real name is it?"

Leon shrugged. "I've been called Leon since I was seven. I can't remember anything before that."

Seifer nodded. "Alright. Selphie, you, Quistis, Zell and Irvine meet Leon and me at the Theatre."

"Okay." Selphie walked into the other room. Seifer put his arm around Leon's shoulders. Seifer started talking about hairstyles as the pair walked out of the room together, so it was only Irvine and Zell left in the room.

As soon as everyone was far enough away, Irvine turned to Zell. "Why did you flinch? Do you like Leon?"

Zell looked shocked. "Of course not."

"Zell."

"Okay maybe a little."

"Zell."

"Okay! I like him a lot." Irvine smiled to himself as Zell continued. "I thought there might have been a chance but when he said he was straight he didn't hesitate."

"That hasn't stopped you before. Remember Adrian." Said Irvine.

Zell remember Adrian all right. He had been the only guy Zell had ever had a serious crush on, but the guy was totally straight, well until Zell got to him that is. Zell smiled at the memory. "Adrian and Leon are very different people. And I don't really want to change Leon."

"Why not?"

Zell shrugged. "I don't know. I just don't want to." Zell started to head out the door. "It's just a crush. It'll pass." Zell left the room and Irvine smiled to himself.

"Yeah, just a crush." Said Irvine sarcastically to himself.
