I live once more! Haha! Yeah… today was my last day of school so I'm happy & hyper. Hope you enjoy!

Warnings: Yaoi, AU, later MPREG, OoCness, etc.

Disclaim.: If I owned it Squall would have walked away w/Sefier at the beginning of disk 4 when Rinoa got her ass stuck to Adel. (AKA- I don't own shit.)

Ch, 2

"Hey Kiddo!" Laguna called to me as he waved.

"Hello young one." Kiros was much easier to deal with than my father. But not by much. I nodded to him as I climbed into the Landrover.

"So how was your day?"

"…"

Laguna sighed. He wishes I would talk to him. The only person I talk to is Selphie.

The only person while on the surface anyway.

I could see Kiros through the rear-view mirror. I could also tell he was amused by Laguna and myself. /Bastard./

Finally reaching home I take refuge in my room.

My room.

My room's walls were painted various shades of blue to look as though you where underwater; done by Selphie and myself. All my furniture was black, as was my carpet. My favorite thing about my room: its windows. They looked directly out into the ocean.

To my freedom.

I sighed and put my bag down by my door before shutting it. I hate all weekdays. Thursday ranking almost with Monday on my list: The day before my short freedom.

I decided I was too damn tired to go swim so I flopped down on my bed.

So damn tired.

/I should change./ I reached down, untied my boots, slid off my pants and shirt and took off any jewelry I was wearing before falling, once again, on my bed.

I pulled my black comforter over my now-cold body and stared up at my ceiling. My ceiling that was painted varying shades of blue and had white Christmas lights hanging from it as though the sun or moon was shinning through water.

How long was it? That Selphie and I stood on small ladders and stools to perfect that illusion?

My eyes drifted closed and I slipped away into dreams of underwater life.

/\/\/\/\/\

I awoke to the cheery tune of under-the-sea from The Little Mermaid.

/Damn Selphie, playing with my phone./

"Hey Squall! I'm glad you haven't gone under yet! What are you doing right now?" Selphie. I sighed.

"I was sleeping."

"Oh…I'm sorry for waking you then. I called to ask if you wanted to go clubbing with me tomorrow."

I said nothing. I knew she wouldn't leave me alone until she got her way. But why call me and ask me now? Why not tomorrow?

"Well?" Again, silence. "Okay. I also want to ask if you want to go shopping for clothes tonight. Please?"

"…What time?" Selphie made a 'squeeing' sound.

"Meet me at the bus stop 3 blocks from your house in 20 minutes. Thanks. Bye!"

I got up, put on my clothes, and grabbed my wallet before leaving the house. No one asked where I was going; they all knew they wouldn't get a response anyway.

I passed trees and then house after house, block after block until finally reaching the bus stop half-way between mine and Selphie's houses.

Selphie had yet to arrive so I sat down on the bench under the overhang. And waited.

I had almost fallen asleep when I heard Selphie in the distance.

"Hey Squall! Sorry I'm late." I nodded. "Well at least I made it in time." As she said it a bus pulled up, allowing us in.

"Ya know, if you'd let your dad buy you a car, we wouldn't need to take the bus." I just looked at her.

"Yeah, yeah, I know; 'Why get a car when I'm only going to leave as soon as I can?' Ugh! Come on Squall! You can be so dull sometimes!" I just stared out the window.

"Squall? Squall, I didn't mean anything! I was just kidding! Do you forgive me?" I shrugged which was enough for her because she 'squeed' and hugged me. I sighed and leaned against her. /I am so damn tired./

"You can sleep 'till we get there, okay?" I nodded but didn't sleep. I closed my eyes and rested. I rest more than I sleep. It's more convenient. "Hey, we're here."

I got up and followed Selphie off the bus to face one of the biggest evils known to man.

The Mall – The Oceanfront Mall to be precise.

I sigh as we walk up to the doors. "Ya know, you sigh to damn much! Is sighing how you make up for not talking?" I glared at her. Whatever.

I move in front of her to lead the way to Dark Illusions – the only clothing store I shop at. The store was run by a small group of dark faeries and looked evil.

Allow me to explain about magick-creatures. If a MC chooses to live in the human world, that creature wears a glamour – which causes that creature to look human to other humans.

However, if another magick-creature with or without glamour comes they will be able to see through the human-glamour and see the creature as itself. Unless of course, the creature is a high-level magicker. If so, then they are able to hide behind their glamour – even from other magickers.

These rules do not apply to magick-weilding humans, however. Humans must have a physical form of the Crest-of-Magick on them to be able to use magick. They are unable to detect other magick-users and cannot see through glamours. Their magicks are also very limited.

As a Superior magick0weiliding Hafling, I do not need a glamour, and I can easily see through all glamours.

Upon entering the store I see Fabula, one of the store owners. She blinks at me.

"Squall! It's so good to see you! You haven't been here in so long!" And she glomped me.

"So your name's Squall." I froze as Fabula moved away to help another customer. "Well? Aren't you going to answer?" I turn.

It's the new guy. The new guy who won't leave me alone.

"Hey! You're that guy from Squall's gym class! I'm Selphie, pleased to meet you."

He nodded to her. "Sefier Almasy. Pleasure."

Thing is, he never glanced at her. He was staring at me. I frowned and walked off to shop.

"Hey! Wait damnit!"

/Tight leather or baggy-silkie/… "Hey!" /Leather./

I continued to ignore 'Sefier' as I made my way over to the bondage side of the store. /Let's see, let's see./

Some pants caught my eye so I picked them up, along with some shirts and jackets.

"Didn't peg you to be the bondage type."

I moved to the counter, buying the pair of pants, a few shirts and a jacket. Then Fabula pounced on me again.

"Squall! Here! Have a wonderful day!" She gave me my bag of clothes and promptly shoved Selphie – who had her own bag; Sefier – who had multiple bags from multiple stores; and myself out the door.

"Damn, what was that all about?" Sefier grumbled as he snapped out of the stupor he was in.

I could feel my eye twitch. I know what that was all about. Fabula had put extra stuff in my bag and didn't want me to say anything or give it back to her.

Giggle. "Come on Squall, let's get something to eat. Wanna come too, Sefier?" I glared at her. My cell rang. I glared harder. She gulped. "heh heh heh?" I flipped the cover back, answering the phone. It was Laguna.

"Hey Squall. Um. I really hope you're not busy or anything. Could you please come home?" I hung up on him /Glad to./ and headed towards the exit.

"Hey where are you going?"

I waved my phone toward the doors I was almost at in a got-a-call; got-to-leave fashion.

"Need a ride?" /Yes, but not from you./

"Yes he does! The bus won't be here for a while." /Traitor./ I glared at her. Harshly.

She giggled and hurried away.

"Come on, I'll give you a ride."

/Damnit./ I had no way out and no choice as he grabbed my shoulder and pulled me after him.

He pulled me over to a black and red Hummer H2.

"Get in." Sefier walked over to the driver's side and got in after I did. Once there I started plotting Selphie's demise. /I don't want this guy to know where I live/

"Which way?" I pointed up hill and he started driving. "If you don't talk, I'm gonna take you to my place." I glared at him. /Ass./ "Tell me when I need to turn." I didn't say anything.

Finally we came to my block. I leaned forward to get my bag from the floorboard; seeing this, Sefier slowed down.

"So which one?" I pointed forward to signal to keep going.

As we passed, the houses got bigger and bigger until we finally ran out of houses. Sefier shot me a look when the road was surrounded by thick trees.

"Look, if this is a joke-."

"Keep going." He mumbled an 'okay.' I'm not surprised. People will do whatever I wanted them to if I spoke to them.

"Shit." I looked up to see my house peak from behind the trees. My house. It looked like a castle it was so damn big; made out of gray stones, it even had a few 'towers,' and it was only a short stroll from the sea.

Sefier pulled to a stop and I got out with a mumbled 'thanks'; I could feel him watching me, my every move. I had seen that Kiros's Landrover was gone and hoped that my father was with him.

I unlocked the door and steped in, hearing Sefier drive off behind me.

"Squall! Who was that? Did you make a new friend?" And Laguna was still home.

I shook my head 'no' to answer his question.

Sefier wasn't a friend and I had been pretty much forced into his car. /Hummer. Whatever./

Selphie deliberately put me in a situation where I would have to talk to the blond. /That bitch of a water sprite./ Oh, yes. I am going to get back at her for this.

"Oh, I called to tell you they're back by the way,"
