OMG! Writer's block is gone!
Zell's POV
I met her exactly where she wanted. I arrived there and noticed she was waiting for me already. Embarrassment flooded over me. Was she waiting there long? A gentleman isn't supposed to make a lady wait. Especially since I'm supposed to be her girlfriend. I hope she's not too upset.
Her smile welcomed me, and the embarrassment was gone. I couldn't help but smile back. She ran up to me and gave me one of her bear tight hugs. I hug her back, but not as tight, afraid to break her. She seemed so fragile, her small curvy body. I had an urge not to let go.
"You're late." She whined.
"Well, I was-"
Before I could finish, she gave me a kiss. Just a peck, but an intense peck. After she pulled away, I licked my lips. It was dark, the sun had already set. I was hoping she didn't see Irvine. Nobody was hardly around. The were all probably in their dorms studying and what not. So, why did she kiss me if no one was going to see?
"Don't worry about it. I'm not mad." She paused between her sentences. "I want to show you something." She said.
My mind quickly jumped to male conclusions, but I know fate wasn't that lucky to me. Hell, nothing that lucky ever happens to me.
"What?"
She tugged on my arm. "C'mere!"
She ended up pulling me outside of the Garden, the sky wasn't as light as I thought it would be. The stars were out already and the moon lit up the ground. You could perfectly see out into the darkness.
She pulled me out in the middle of a grassy field. She plopped on the ground, and looked up at me. I guessed she expected me to do the same, so I did. Right beside her.
"Why are we out here again?" I asked her, hoping she would tell me.
"Just wait. This is our official non-going-out date." She told me.
I laughed. "So, we're official, but no so official?" I asked her.
She nodded, looking up at the sky. She was searching for something. I looked up also, but found nothing but stars.
"What are we looking at? I don't get it. Why won't you tell me?" Then I realized I was asking too many questions, so I decided to stop talking altogether.
"You'll see."
So we sat there in silent. I drove me crazy. We were out in the middle of a grassy field. What did she expect to find out here?
Just then I heard a swooshing noise.
I looked up and saw nothing.
"Did you see that?" She asked, turning her head towards me.
"No." I muttered, still looking up.
But then I saw it. Something was falling in the sky. Then I saw one after another.
"It's a meteor shower." She told me.
I looked ate her. I could see the falling meteors in the reflection of her emerald green eyes. It was beautiful.
I blushed and looked at the ground. How could I think such a thing? We're only going out to seek revenge on Irvine. Selphie looked at me and saw that my gaze had averted.
"What's the matter? Don't you like it?" She questioned me.
I looked at her. "Uh, yeah, it's great. This is really awesome, Selphie." I tried to make her feel better.
She smiled. "Ya, I heard a bunch of kids saying it was gonna happen tonight."
I never noticed it before, but I heard other noises other than the meteors. There were other people in the same field me and Selphie were in. There were couples sharing the same romantic moment she and I were sharing. They were hugging and kissing and being all lovey dovey.
Should I be doing this to Selphie? I looked at the distance between out bodies. Another person could fit between the space. I wasn't being very romantic at all. I scooted towards her to fill the space. Then I wrapped my arm around her. She looked up at me with surprised eyes.
"You don't have to act like my boyfriend now, you know." She said.
"Ya, I know, but it's kinda a romantic moment, and I just couldn't let it slip by. I didn't want you to feel upset from all the other couples around us."
She looked around. It seemed that she just noticed them as well.
"Oh…" She said. "That's really sweet of you, Zell."
I smiled. Sweet! One point for the Zellmister!
"You must think this is really lame. Do you want to go back to the Garden?" She asked me.
I shook my head. "No, let's stay here a bit longer. Sound good?"
She smiled and nodded quickly.
After several minutes, she wanted to head back because she wanted to be in by curfew. I agreed, even though, sometimes, I don't like following curfew. I like staying out as late as possible.
I walked her to her room, which were only a few doors away from mine.
"I had a really…" I scratched the back of my head. I couldn't search for the words. "A really cool time." I finished.
She leaned against her door and looked at the ground.
"Are you okay?" I asked her.
She nodded. "Yeah…" She mumbled.
"You're lying." I told her, folding my arms across my chest. "Normally, you'd be like 'Woo-hoo! We should do that again, Zelly!'" I tried my best to make her smile.
But all she did was frown even more. "Sorry. It's just that I wish…I wish I could've shared it with Irvine."
I could feel jealousy go through my veins, but I didn't know why. That should be normal if she missed her ex. So why was I getting jealous? I felt kinda upset that she didn't like the time we shared. She'd rather spend it with Irvine than me.
She must've been a mind reader, because then she said, "Don't get me wrong, Zell, I had the best time with you. You made it really special! But…I dunno…I'm just really confused."
"Do you want to go inside and talk about it?" I just realized what I just said. I have become a chick! Ugh…
She shook her head. "No. I don't wanna talk about anything really."
"Okay…so, can I come in anyway?" I asked. Yes, the manly Zell is back. Please bring on the perverted thoughts!
She smiled, finally. "Sure, if you want to."
Hell yeah! "Yeah."
She welcomed me in with her hand gestures. I walked in. The room changed since I last came in here. It was much tightier. Why did she all of a sudden clean? Did she expect me to coming in here later?
No, Zell, she didn't. She isn't over Irvine, so don't expect anything to be happening tonight.
I hate my mind. It's so brutally honest.
I stood in the door way while I watched her sit on her bed. She took off her shoes one by one. Then did this loud, animated stretched that took forever to end. She fell back onto her bad, having her head just barely missing the wall. She stared at the ceiling.
"Zell, have you ever fallen in love?"
I stood uncomfortably in the door way, scratching the back of my head again. I do that when I get a bit nervous, or I can't find the right things to say. "Uh, no, I've been fortunate not to ever felt that feeling."
She looked over at me. "Why do you say that?"
I shrugged. "I dunno. People get hurt when they fall in love, because you have that chance that you could fall out of it."
"You get lucky." She told me. "One day, it'll all fit. And everything will seem perfect; everything will go where it's supposed to."
I gave her a clueless look. She completely lost me. I guess she caught my look, because she started talking again.
"That's what love is like. But when it's gone, all you're waiting for is someone to tell you that it's okay to die."
I was shocked; I've never seen depressed Selphie. I had to fix this. I ran and jumped on her bed. She popped up and giggled.
"We have to change the subject. You're getting too depressed on me. I don't wanna hear that shit." I smiled at her to make it seem like I was being too serious.
"Yeah, you're right." She turned towards me and had her face lean on her hand the was propped up on the bed. "Let's do something fun!"
My mind wandered to perverted thoughts. "What did you have in mind?" I asked her with a smirk.
"Like…" She paused to think. "Why don't you stay in here for tonight? Like a sleep over, but not wanting to sound too dorky."
I sat up. Yeah, it was a great idea, even though she put it in a corny sounding way. I could get closer to Selphie. "Sounds great, Selphie."
"Really!" She sat up with me. "We can try and pull an all nighter."
I smiled at her. "Okay, whatever you want, because I want you to cheer up."
After that little conversation, I walked over to my dorm and got some clothing. I tip-toed back to Selphie's making sure no one would see me. I didn't want anyone getting the wrong idea. Well, I did actually, but I didn't want rumors spreading around about Selphie being a slut or anything. That would break her heart; she's already going through so much as it is.
I knocked on her door, and then walked in. Kinda hoping she wasn't getting changed again, but then again, kinda hoping she was. But to both sides of my mind, she wasn't. She was already in a long night shirt that had a large unicorn on the front. Can you say gay? But I shouldn't be one to talk. I still have my Chocobo jamies.
I had already changed into my sleep ware. I just wore a T-shirt with some boxers.
"Zell! You're back! Woo-hoo, now we cam get this part started!" She said jumping up.
Party, huh? I can't wait either.
Shut the fuck up, Zell. Nothing is gonna happen tonight!
"Just drop you're clothes over in that corner." She pointed to the corner that was closest to me. So I did exactly what she said.
She plopped on the floor, and I sat across from her.
"I hope we don't get caught." She said with a worried tone.
"Phppt. We save the fuckin world, I'm sure they can give us some slack on that." I told her.
"I hope so."
"It's not like we're making out or anything." I told her. "Unless, you want to."
Damnit, Zell! Can't you keep you goddamn mouth shut? Now she's gonna think you're gonna rape her in the middle of the night!
But she only laughed at me. "What are you thinking, Zell?"
You don't wanna know. It's best to keep my mouth shut right now. No time to be honest, Zell.
"Do you really think we're going out?" She asked me.
I laughed nervously and scratch the back of my head. "N-No, of course not."
"Do you want to?"
I looked at her. She looked at me with her beautiful emerald eyes. It looked like they were pleading. Pleading for me to say the right thing, to say the perfect thing. Do I really want to go out with Selphie? She looked stunning with her eyes looking at me so seductively. I wanted to say yes so badly, but would that be the truth?
That's it for this chappie! Yeah! I hope this is long enough. I love this chappie! It's my favorite idea so far. Ideas welcome, though I really don't need them. I hate Irvine! I just wanna add that! He's never in my party unless it's mandatory. I need five words to make this 2,000 words. It's my first chappie with 2,000 words. Let's celebrate! Woo-hoo! Blah Blah Blah!
