Hi! This is my first time writing fan fiction so I'd appreciate tips and help with anything you think is wrong with it.

I do not own Final Fantasy.

Squall threw off his blanket and sat up in his bed. He glanced over at his digital clock. It read 2:30.

"I've got to get some sleep for tomorrow…" he said wiping his face with his hand.

The room was dark and the curtains were drawn. He always liked it that way better. His gun blade case lay

next to his dresser. Most of his clothes were sprawled all over the floor.

It had been a month since the sorceress events. Rinoa and he were somewhat still together.

Squall looked at the floor. "Thirsty" he said rising out of bed and stepping out of his room.

It was quiet in the halls. The linoleum floors looked as if they had just been cleaned. His feet were cold. He had forgotten to put on shoes. He passed other rooms many were silent. Some sounded as if there was more than one person in them and they were really enjoying each others company. Squall entered the attaching coridor to the school. You could see the stars through the glass ceiling . It was a nice night.

"Squall!"

Squall flinched. He was still drowsy and the last thing he needed was someone to scream his name. He turned to find Irvine walking down the corridor to him. He was only wearing pajama pants and his long orangey hair was tired up like it usually is. He had a nice body, slightly muscular from the working out and battles. He was slightly taller than Squall.

"What are you doing up this late?" the half naked teen asked.

Squall raised one eye brow. "I could ask you the same thing."

Irvine smiled. "Well, I guess you could."

Squall shook off a feeling of weakness. "Are you going to the cafeteria?"

"Well I was just roaming the halls, but if you're going I'll come too."

It only took a 3 minutes to get to the cafeteria. Usually Squall would have preferred to go by himself but Irvine was cool so he made a exception.

They entered the cafeteria. There was only two people in it. They looked up and went back to whatever they were doing. Squall walked up to the vending machine and put a couple of quarters in it. He pressed some buttons, bent down and got his drink.

"Nice" Irvine said as squall got up.

"What's nice?" Squall said taking a sip from the can.

Irvine looked flustered. "oh! Um… the sky!"

Squall raised an eyebrow. "yeah… sure. I guess."

There was an awkward silence which Irvine broke.

"I'm gonna get a drink too. Then we could sit down and catch up."

"Sure." Squall said walking to one of the tables and taking a seat.

Irvine walked to the table and grabbed a seat. "so… how are you and Rinoa doing?"

He and Rinoa were taking a break from each other. She said that Squall was emotionally unavailable. Squall didn't really care to see her leave she was becoming really bitchy.

"She wanted a break." he answered.

"Oh… Well she was pretty but I never really liked her that much." Irvine said putting his feet up on another chair.

"And what about you?" Squall said taking another sip from the can.

"What about me?"

"Any girlfriends?"

"nope."

"Why not?"

"Its more complicated than you think…"

There was another uncomfortable silence that this time Squall broke. "Help me understand then."

Irvine took out a lighter and started flicking the flame on and off. He said nothing.

"What? Are you gay?" Squall said jokingly.

Irvine flick the fire off and looked at Squall. He said nothing again.

"Um… I got to go. I have a mission tomorrow. A hydra has been attacking people."

"Yeah I know I'm your partner for that mission."

Squall push his seat back and got up. "Well then I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

"bye"

Squall walked through the halls thinking about the strange conversation he had with Irvine. "well if he wasn't gay he would have said so right? Not just sit there and not say anything…" Squall turned a corner. "Why do I even care? Irvine is still Irvine… Why does my stomach feel funny? Must have been that stupid juice." Squall opened the door to his room and removed his shirt. "I thought he had a thing for Selphie too." He lay in his bed looking at the ceiling. "I can't loose sleep over this or I'll be groggy tomorrow." Squall rolled over and fell asleep.

Hope you liked this tell me if I should go on! R&R!
