Chapter: Twenty two Meantaly fucked.

Quistis just rested in bed next to Squall for the rest of the night. She felt safe, but not safe enough. There was something wrong. Something she could not place her finger on. Curling into Squall's chest, Quistis forced herself not to think. "How the hell you you do it Leon" Her words were soft and the warm breath on Squall's chest bounched back onto her lips.

"He can't protect you all the time you know." An erriee voice filled the room. Quickly, Quistis sat up, thowing the covers off the bed.

"Who are you" Franticly Quistis walked around the house looking for some one.

"Who do you think I am"

"Rinao"

"Stupid girl. Every one claims you're smart. But in thruth you're just a dumb blond."

"Show your self"

"And what good would that do? Think that your beloved Squall can save you? Think that he will always be there for you? Every one leaves, dies, goes away. It's true in both your lives. He'll leave you just like everyone has! You will leave eachother"

"No" Quistis stood in the living area looking anyplace she could. There was nothing in the room.

"Quistis"

"He will leave you! You will kill him! You will brake him! He is not your knight! He was never ment to be your knight"

"Shut up"

"You're weak Quistis. You always have been"

"Shut up"

"Quistis"

"Only you can hear me... You weak little girl"

"I said Shut up"

"Quistis" Strong arms wrapped themselves around her slinder frame. She tried to throw them off, but it didn't work. In all the madness she didn't see Squall standing behind her. Tears started to fall from her eyes as she fell to her knees. Squall stayed behind her, arms firmly wrapped around her. Gently he placed a few kisses on her back. There was nothing he could do. There was no reason for her to be yelling, or crying. "Quistis. Boo. Come on. Lets go back to bed. You were just dreaming again. It's ok. I'm here."

"No.. No.. Rinoa. she was here.. I .. I..." Quistis sobbed softly into his arms.

"He is not your knight. He was never ment to be your knight. You should have died that night..." The voice slowly echoed in her head as Squall picked her up.

"No Boo. Rinoa is not here. She's with her father." Squall gently placed the sobbing girl into thier bed. "He says that she is still asleep. There's nothing she can do to us now. You're safe. I'm here." Quistis watched him circle the bed before he pulled her into a tight embrace. "I love you. I wont let anything happen to you."

"You wont"

"I wont."

Slowly her tears faded away and she smiled at him softly. He always made her smile. It was one of the things she loved about him. "Wont"

"Huh" Squall looked at her confused.

"You mean will not."

"There you go. Instructor." Squall playfuly nuzzled him nose into her neck.

"Eww! Don't call me that! Hyne what is it this you and Seifer"

"What do you mean"

"The instructor shit" Quistis playfuly pushed him away. "Eww.. I mean come on"

"MM but you make if sound like you're soooo much older when you say it like that. Come on! I know Seifer and I were not the only boys dreaming about you in class"

"EH! Don't tell me you dreamed about me when I was giving lestens! Damnit all" Quistis playfuly pushed at him as he tried to pull her closer to himself. Quickly he over came her and pinned her down. Looking down at her he smiled happily. "Get off me."

"No." Squall fixed himself over her, keeping his hands on her wrists.

"Don't make me hurt you."

Smirking Squall placed a kiss perfectly on her neck. "Make me." He let his hot breath graz her ear before he kissed her gently behind it. It was one of her weak spots. Closing his eyes, Squall let a smirk cross his lips before he found himself on the floor with a large pain running through his body. "Damn."

"I told you to get off"

"Didn't have to kick me." Squall mumbled as he got back onto the bed.

"I said it nicely before."

"That hurt."

"Baby." Quistis took him into her arms gently and looked at his ribs. Gently she fingered his side. "Didn't hurt you that bad."

"I know. I was just making you feel bad."

"Ass."

"Bitch."

"What did you say" Quistis flung him back. Pinning him down she glared at him. "What did you call me again"

"Are you going to.."

"Don't even say it."

"Aww Quisty... I wanna..." A knock on the door broke thier play fight. "Damnit all. Why is it when we always get a few moments alone some one comes and kills it"

"Shut it Leon. GO answer the door."

"Why me"

"Cuz I'm not fully dressed."

"You're in a shirt and unders. I'm only in my unders. You have more cloths on. "

"FINE" Quistis stormed to the dresser and placed a pair of cotton red pants on. "Jerk"

"Wentch"

Angerly Quistis flung the door open to see Xu standing there in tears. "Qus... I need you to come with me.. It's .. It's..."

"Xu" Quistis walked out of the room now scared of what she was going to say.

"Seifer. I... I can't find him..."

"Shit" Quistis slammed the door, grabbed Xu and started running to the training center. "He was here wasn't he"

"Yes..." Xu's cries slowly stopped. "I couldn't find him. I looked for him everywhere. Quis Please help me"

"Stay here. I'll be right back." Quistis ran like crazy into the training center. Not looking back all she could think about was Seifer and where he was.

"Stupid little girl." Slowly 'Xu' turned and started to walk away. "Little Seifer's all asleep in his bed where the lap dog should be. Too bad. Poor little Quisty.. What a shame. She died looking for some one who was never there.. Hahahha."

"What" The so called Xu looked up to see Seifer standing infront of her. "What did you just say"

'Xu' just smiled at him. Shacking her head side to side she closed her eyes. "Damn. I'm found. Too bed. Thought it might have worked." Shaking her head one last time Xu fell onto the floor with an off silvery brown light leaving her body.

"Xu" Just as those words slipped from his lips a ear shattering scream came from the training center. "Quis" Without a second thought Seifer ran into the training center. "Quis" Seifer looked everywhere, but no luck. Finaly she came to the spot that looked out over the garden. There she stood cover in blood, who's it was he could not tell. "Quistis" He could see that her eyes were an odd shade of silver, and her hair was glowing. The crimson tips glissoned in the pale light of the red morring.

"Get away Seifer. I... I don't want to... I don't want to hurt you." Slowly Quistis' blue eyes came back as she sunk to her knees.

"You wont. I know you Quis. You wont hurt the ones you love."

"Are you so sure about that? I killed.." Quistis at the blood in her hands... "I killed something.. What is this" Looking down she saw that the wounds on her wrists were opening. "Seifer"

Gently he walked over to her. "It's ok. You just killed a T-rex thingy.. You only reopened the wounds. Here." Gently he took her hands in his. After a second or two he pulled off his shirt and ripped it. "Lets get you back to your Squall."

"Why Seifer"

"Because I'm here for you. I love you."

(AN: Was going to stop here but b/c it's takin soo long I'll go on!)

Togther they walked back to Squall's place in pure quiet. Once they reached the door Quistis turned, thowing her arms around Seifer's neck she sobbed. "OO Seifer thank you! I..."

"I know." Seifer pushed her back a bit and place a sweet kiss on her lips. "Night Quistis."

"Night Seifer." Quistis just stood there watching Seifer walk off to his room. After a few seconds she walked inside. The early morring light was slowly starting to make it's way through the heavy dressed windows. Looking around she could not find Squall anywhere, though the bathroom door was closed. Shacking it off she snuggled down into the bed.

"You will brake him. You already did."

"Piss off. I am in no mood to deal with you." Quistis growned at the disinbodied voice and rolled over. What was the point of it all.

MEAN WHILE

Squall walked down the hall pissed off more than he could comperhend. Who he was really mad at was a differnt thing. That he wasn't quite sure himself. HIs mind was spinnig with questions like; who the fuck does he think he is? Where does she get off doing something like that? Do she really love me like she says she does? Squall stopped dead in his trakes. Does she?

"Hey Squall-boy" Squal turned to see Seifer looking right at him. That smirk planted right there in his lips, but then again where ealse would it be planted? Maybe on his ass? Anger consumed him as he looked at Seifer and then... POW! Seifer was down for the count. "What the fuck was that for" Seifer looked up to find Squall over him, Fists ready to pound. "Chill! Sorry dude! I wont all you Squally anymore"

"You dick shit" Squall took the upper hand. Ater a few minutes of pounding Seifer, Squall felt some one tugg on his arm. Whipping around he threw who ever it was to the ground. "Lay off! I have my reasons" After blindly shouting the words Squall found Quistis sitting on the ground. Her eyes were wide and shock was clearly written on her face.

"Squall" After a sort second she gathered herself up and crawled next to him. "Leon"

Squall said nothing but stood. Setting himself away from her he glared at the two. Both lost, neather knowing why. "Hm." Lost dogs. Stupid bitch. Squall walked away not bother to listen to Quistis' cries. What did it matter? Why should he care? Pain. Pain should be shared. Right? Yes. She needed to know. She needed to know true pain. Like him.

Sitting down at his desk, Squall started his daily paper work. Seconds latter the doors bursted open and Quistis stormed in. "Squall! What the hell is all this about" Nothing. Squall said 100 nothing. "Leon"

"Don't call me that."

"No. Don't give me this bull shit! Don't you dare go back into that 'I'm an ass and you knw it' mood. I want you to talk to me"

"Talk to a wall" The normaly masked Squall finaly looked up and yelled at her. He had said those words toher before and in turn had her say them to him.

"THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING NOW I AM! Damnit Squall! What happened? Why in Hynes name did you try to kill Seifer just now"

"Why did you kiss him" Quistis looked at him as if he had shit out a glow-in-the-dark chocobo.

"What"

"You heard me." Squall glared at her as she took a seat across from him.

"Is that what got you'r undies in a twist" Squall only glared harder. "Geeze! Didn't think you'd ever be that green. Look Squall, Seifer helped me. I went to go find him, but he found me. My wound broke open again, and he helped me. I wanted to thank him. You know how he is. I said thank you and he pecked me on the lips. Geeze baby. I love you. I would never leave you. I swear."

"I don't believe you."

"Do you love me" Quiet. "Do you"

"Yes."

"Yes what"

"Yes I love you."

"With all your heart"

"What about you" Squall crossed his arms.

"I love you with my whole being."

Slowly Squall let his eyes travel to her face. The anger was gone, there was nothing but love and hope. No fear. The one thing that was swimming in Squall's eyes. "I.. I love you. I love you more than..." Squall closed his eyes. How could he tell her how much he loved her. There were no words. "I love you to the stars and back." A small tear fell from his eye. To think he, Squall, was going to lose his most loved person to Seifer. It rather made him sick to think that he might lose her.

"Squall" Looking up he coul not find her in the seat, but mear inches from his face. "I promise I won't leave. I love you too much to be without you." Gently she kissed his check and tumbed away the tear.

"I love you Quistis."

"I know." Smiling sweetly she placed herself in his lap. "But next time something happens like this, talk to me. Poor Seifer. You beat his ass pretty good."

"Sorry Boo."

AN:Whooohoo long one here! Yay! hope you all like it!
