Chapter 5:
*FINALLY, HUH?*
Don't tell me...
"Ahem. Are you even LISTENING!?"
Garnet asked Eiko, annoyed.
"Hee hee. YEAH... I mean.."
"Then what did I say!?"
Garnet asked, folding her arms.
"Women!"
Not that voice. I wouldn't dare to speak to the ignorant freak ever again!
Zidane Tribal looked at Eiko, and Garnet.
"Hey women. What's up?"
Garnet looked at Eiko who had hearts in her eyes.
He's not that hot. Geez.
"Time for eh.... the bonfire dance.. so, you chicks got someone to go with..?"
Zidane asked.
"I DON'T!"
Eiko screamed, excitedly.
So? You're only six years old. Expecting Zidane to go out with you?
"How 'bout you, Garnet?"
Garnet looked down.
"No."
She said shyly.
"How 'bout--"
"NO WAY!"
Garnet screamed before Zidane said something.
"H-huh?"
Someone came in, all shook up. It was Vivi Oruinter.
"Z-Zidane."
"Vivi! Can't ya see I'm a bit busy!?"
Zidane asked, winking.
"Shut up!"
Garnet yelled.
"What!?"
Zidane asked, looking at Garnet.
"I said shut up!! Just leave! Both of you!"
"B-but.."
Vivi started, Garnet looked at him; as if he was her enemy.
"Yikes! L-let's go Zidane!"
Vivi cried, starting to run out, Zidane just stood there.
"What the hell's going on in here!?"
Kuja ran in unexpectedly.
"Aha. Zidane... how many times have I told you not to rape women!!"
Kuja shouted.
"Get the hell outta here, Gayja!"
Zidane shot back.
"How about you all leave this instant!?"
Garnet asked, yelling at the top of her lungs.
"Vivi what are you here for!?"
Zidane asked, turning over to Vivi. Vivi whispered something to him.
"Eiko. Vivi wants to talk to you."
Zidane said, pushing Vivi over towards Eiko.
"Zidane! Kuja! Pa-lease!"
Garnet shouted.
"Shut the hell up, princess pooper! I understand what's going on! Zidane is trying to rape the princess!"
Kuja shouted.
Garnet burned with anger,
"I'm a QUEEN!!!!!"
She screamed, slapping him across his face. Zidane held his mouth, to the expression on Kuja's face.
"Fine......... be that way.... I was just warning you.. Zidane is trouble."
Kuja said, walking out the door. Garnet sighed, sitting down on her bed; Zidane stared at her.
"What do you want!?"
She asked, sighing. Zidane shrugged,
"I wanted to ask you to the bonfire dance... but, everything was a bit interrupted."
He stated, leaning against the cabin wall.
"Sorry for blowing up... it was mainly Kuja who pushed me to the limit though.."
Garnet said apologizing.
"How come you're mad at me?"
Zidane asked.
"Mad at you? Where did you hear that?"
Garnet asked.
"Old Rusty, and Old Beatrix."
Garnet sighed,
"I overheard you talking to Blank last night.. I err- came over to talk to you about a letter I received."
"Letter?"
Zidane asked, interested.
"I have it."
Garnet got up, and grabbed the letter from her dresser.
"Here."
Zidane took it from Garnet.
"Heh heh. This isn't from me; this is from Kuja. I can bet on it."
He said, handing it back to Garnet.
"Zidane. How can I trust you?"
Garnet asked. Zidane shrugged,
"I guess.. you can't really. But.. you can.. 'try' to."
Garnet sighed,
"Guess you're right... "
She finally admitted.
"So. Wanna come with me.. or not?"
Garnet put a hand to her mouth, in her thinking position.
Bonfire Dance...? With.. Zidane Tribal? Well.. who else can I go with?
Garnet slapped her forehead.
"....... Fine."
Zidane jumped up in the air,
"Awwwww-some! See ya!"
With that, Zidane dashed out the door.
"Boys."
Garnet whispered. She noticed Eiko & Vivi coming back inside the cabin; Vivi dashed out the door, trying to catch up with Zidane. Eiko walked up to Garnet.
"I.. have to go with Vivi Oruinter for the bonfire dance."
Eiko said, with a sigh.
"SO. How did it go with Zidane?"
She asked. Garnet looked down.
Eiko's gonna be ticked.
"Promise you won't get mad."
Garnet said, Eiko groaned.
"Promise."
"Ok. I'm going with Zidane Tribal to the bonfire dance."
Eiko gasped,
"WHAT!?"
"You said you wouldn't get mad... and hey! It's like I want to.. he convinced me.."
Garnet tried to explain, but Eiko looked at Garnet with red eyes.
"You..... you.... YOU!!!!"
She screamed, racing into the bathroom in tears,
"I'm sorry, Eiko! I really am!"
Garnet shouted.
"SORRY FOR WHAT!!!!???"
Eiko questioned, wailing.
"STEALING MY BOYFRIEND!!!? 'CUS YOU BETTER BE!!!!!"
She hollered.
*********
"Understood?"
Beatrix asked. Garnet walked out to the yard.
"Garnet! Glad you could join us. Please, take a seat."
Garnet took a seat next to Rinoa, who was busy dazing at Squall.
"Rinoa!"
Garnet whispered, nudging Rinoa.
"H-huh!?"
Rinoa asked, knocking out her daze.
"Squall ask you to the bonfire dance?"
Garnet asked, smiling.
"Yeah. It took him forever though, he came to my cabin, and he was silent for a while; until I broke the silence... and then.. well.. I asked him if he was going to the bonfire dance; he said he was.. so then he asked me if I was, and I said yes--"
"Rinoa.. I get it."
Garnet said, turning around.
"Okay. So everyone, let's sing some cool songs. Anyone have a favorite music artist? .... Vivi?"
Vivi adjusted his hat,
".... Matchbox Twenty?"
Beatrix smiled,
"Alright. Anyone know the song 'Unwell'?"
************
Garnet sighed, laying down on her bed, in her cabin. Eiko was still in the bathroom, sobbing.
"Eiko. I really am sorry."
Eiko didn't say a word. Garnet sighed,
I hate this. I feel so.. formal, and proper. Why can't I be normal...... hey wait a second..
Garnet smirked evilly.
