Flower Field
This is chapter 7. Squall and Rinoa get together. They are a great couple. I made this chapter very sweet. I made this chapter very sweet and mushy. I hope I didn't make it too hhsweet. I will be re writting this story when I am done to make a new version with descriptions. I made this story as a way to write the ideas, and once it's done the next story will come. I made this chapter extremely sweet. I am a huge Squall and Rinoa fan. This chapter will show them as they become a couple.
Chapter 7
Squall floated through space. He was going to save Rinoa. "I know what I am doing.", Squall said. Rinoa...Where are you? I'm gonna find you, no matter what. I have to get in front of her...And catch her..., Squall thought. Squall was in space. He felt nervous and worried. He was either going to die here or survive. Squall looked through space and saw Rinoa floating. Rinoa..., Squall thought. Squall saw Rinoa and went behind her. Squall wrapped his arms around her.
"Squall… thank you. I heard your voice.", Rinoa said.
"…I can't believe it.", Squall said.
"Are we gonna make it?", Rinoa asked.
"Don't worry.", Squall said. I'm with Rinoa again, finally, Squall thought.
The Lunar cry continued.
Out of fuel… Low on oxygen.. What now? Die out in space? What should I do? I am so happy to be reunited with Rinoa. Am I going to die after this? I can't save Rinoa? Come on, think!, Squall thought.
Rinoa looked around. Squall is here. Squall is with me. It's like a dream. I'm with Squall. I'm so happy, Rinoa thought. Rinoa saw a ship
"Rinoa…hold on.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa floated towards the spaceship. They moved forward and arrived closer as the ship faced them. Squall grabbed the side of the ship and pulled Rinoa inside.
There's air, Squall thought as they entered. Squall closed the door. We made it. Finally I can tell Rinoa my feelings, Squall thought.
Squall and Rinoa walked together on the ship. They took off their outfits.
"Thank you for saving me.", Rinoa said. A long silence followed. I wish we could be together, Rinoa thought.
"I want to be with you.", Squall said.
"You want to be with me?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes, you.", Squall said.
"Really?", Rinoa asked. I can't believe it, Rinoa thought.
"Yes.", Squall said.
"I am so happy.", Rinoa said. Tears formed in Rinoa's eyes.
"I love you.", Squall said.
"I love you too.", Rinoa said.
"What do you say we get that ring fixed and make one for you?", Squall asked.
"We can't.", Rinoa said.
"What?", Squall asked.
"I wish we could be together, but you have someone.", Rinoa said.
"That's over now. Rinoa, the only person I love is, you. The one I want to be with is you, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"What about your other girlfriend?", Rinoa asked.
"We ended it because I love you, Rinoa. I want you be my girlfriend.", Squall said. Squall looked into Rinoa's eyes. Squall hugged Rinoa.
"Yes I will. We can finally be together.", Rinoa said.
"Yes we can, Rinoa.", Squall said, holding her. Squall held Rinoa tightly.
"Squall, we are finally together.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, the one for me is you. You are the only one.", Squall said.
"Squall, the only problem is, we are in space. How do we get back?", Rinoa asked.
"Let's move forward.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa walked into the next room and they saw a creature.
"What's that?", Rinoa asked.
"I don't know.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa walked down the stairs and through the door.
"We are finally together.", Rinoa said, giggling. I am his girlfriend, Rinoa thought.
"Rinoa, you are my girlfriend now.", Squall said.
"Squall, you are my boyfriend now.", Rinoa said.
"Now that we're together, we have to figure out how to get back home.", Squall said.
"Let's go through that door.", Rinoa said, pointing toward a door. Squall is my boyfriend, Rinoa thought. Squall and Rinoa held hands. Squall and Rinoa walked through the door and saw a creature and a battle began.
"We made it.", Squall said once the battle finished.
"Yes we did.", Rinoa said. Rinoa linked her arm through Squall's arm. Rinoa smiled at Squall. Rinoa held Squall's arm tightly.
"You like holding onto my arm, don't you?", Squall asked.
"It's nice.", Rinoa said. Squall and Rinoa walked together through the ship. They saw another creature. They battled the creature and walked through another room. After a few more battles, the entered a new area.
"Wow, this is some report.", Squall said, reading a report.
"It seems we must eliminate the ones we are battling by color.", Rinoa said.
"I guess you're right.", Squall told her.
"Thank you.", Rinoa said. Rinoa and Squall walked arm and arm through the door. Another battle begun.
"Rinoa, you have a new power.", Squall said.
"Yes. Angel Wing.", Rinoa said.
"Why do you have this power?", Squall asked.
"It's a secret.", Rinoa said, smiling.
"We finished.", Squall said when the battles were complete. They stepped on a lift and walked up.
"Wow!", Rinoa exclaimed as she saw the new room.
I have to fly this thing?, Squall thought. He heard a noise.
"Squall, it's trying to talk.", Rinoa said.
Volume?, Squall thought.
"This is Esthar Airstation. Do you copy?", the voice asked.
"We can get back.", Rinoa said. Rinoa hugged Squall's back.
"Yes.", Squall said.
"Are you in space?", the voice asked.
"Yes. This ship is the Ragnorak.", Squall told them.
"Ragnorak… it's been 17 years.", the voice said.
"That's when I was born.", Squall said, laughing.
"We can get you down from here.", the voice said.
We can go home?, Squall thought.
"Copy that, come down here, we can track you down. Sit in the pilot seat.", the speaker said.
"There are too many seats here.", Squall said.
"It's the one on the right.", the voice said. Squall sat down. "Enter in the following data.", the voice said, giving Squall codes.
"Entered.", Squall said.
"No errors?", the voice asked. "Now, there's one more thing. Turn off the gravity generator. This should save some fuel.", the voice said. Squall turned it off. "One more thing, from all of us at ground control, congratulations.", the voice said.
"Thanks.", Squall said. Squall saw Rinoa float up in the air and turn backwards.
"Hey!", Rinoa asked.
"I'm coming.", Squall said. Squall floated over to Rinoa and took her in his arms. Squall floated back and sat in his chair. "Put your seatbelt on.", Squall said. Rinoa floated into Squall's arms. "Now go sit down.", Squall said.
"Just a little longer.", Rinoa said. Rinoa wrapped her arms around Squall.
"How come you're holding onto me like this?", Squall asked.
"You don't like this?", Rinoa asked.
"Just not used to it.", Squall said.
"You hugged me a few moments ago. What about your other girl? Did she told you like this?", Rinoa asked.
"Before I met you, I didn't know how it felt. Now that I'm with you, this love and emotion is all so amazing to me.", Squall said.
"What about your parents? Didn't they give you affection?", Rinoa asked.
"I can't remember anything about my parents. Rinoa, you are the only one I feel this amazing love for. Only you, Rinoa. Ellone didn't give off the amazing feeling that only you, Rinoa, can give me. You are the only one I felt this with.", Squall said.
"Squall.", Rinoa said.
"I didn't know how this felt before. As a kid, other people held me.", Squall said.
"Made you feel safe and secure?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes, but when I met you, Rinoa, you were the only one for me. I tried to be distant in order not to hurt the others. I tried to be distant to you before. I'm sorry. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to hurt anybody, but I guess I did. I was afraid… afraid of hurting somebody. I was afraid of making people feel in pain. As a kid, I had been afraid of having comfort taken away from me. Then I became afraid to make my other girl and you to feel pain. I didn't know what to do.", Squall said.
"You were afraid of losing us. You were afraid of making us feel pain. You felt you had to stay away in order to keep us from feeling pain. Is that why you kept your distance?", Rinoa asked.
"Before I met you, I didn't know this feeling. I had been alone, I had been in love, I had been in love with you, I had been together. I was worried of doing things that others wouldn't approve of. I felt upset with my life, before I met you.", Squall said.
"Squall… you missed out on all the good things in live. You missed out on so much.", Rinoa said.
"Maybe.", Squall teased.
"Definitely.", Rinoa said.
"I know. You taught me the true meaning of comfort and love.", Squall said. Squall looked into Rinoa's eyes. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"You taught me the meaning of love.", Rinoa said.
"We both taught each other true love.", Squall said.
"I like it like this. You are my boyfriend. Being with you is so comforting. I liked having my mom hold me like this. My dad too, back when we got along.", Rinoa said.
"I'm not your mom.", Squall said, looking at her teasingly.
"No, of course not. But now… Squall, you're the one who gives me the most comfort. Comfort and happiness. Not just that, but anger and sadness too. When you tease me I feel happy and angry. Even though we argue a lot, you make me feel an amazing love. I love you so much.", Rinoa said. Rinoa laughed and cuddled in Squall's arms.
"I know I love to tease you.", Squall said.
"You can get me upset at times.", Rinoa told him.
"Whatever.", Squall said.
"Whatever.", Rinoa said, teasing Squall. Rinoa laughed.
"I'm going to get you for that.", Squall said. I love being with Rinoa, Squall thought.
"Try me.", Rinoa challenged.
"You should get back to your seat now.", Squall said.
"Just a little longer.", Rinoa said. Rinoa cuddled in Squall's arms.
You'll be safer in your seat, Squall thought.
"We're gonna make it home, right?", Rinoa asked.
"We can only hope.", Squall said.
"When we get back… We won't be able to stay together, huh?", Rinoa asked.
"Maybe.", Squall said.
"Hey!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"I'm only kidding. Of course we'll be able to be together. I'll do anything for you, Rinoa. You can't predict the future. Their aren't guarantees. Those were your words, Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall held Rinoa's hand.
"That's not what I meant.", Rinoa said.
"We will always be together, Rinoa, no matter what.", Squall said, wrapping his arm around Rinoa's waist.
"Squall…", Rinoa said. I love him so much, my boyfriend, Squall, Rinoa thought.
"We'll figure out what to do when we get back.", Squall said. Rinoa floated over to her seat.
"They'll all be angry at me.", Rinoa said.
"Angry?", Squall asked.
"This is Airstation. Please respond.", the speaker said.
"This is the Ragnorak.", Squall said.
"We have some questions for you. We're collecting escape pods. We have a good idea of what happened. I hear no one from Lunar Base is on the Ragnorak. How many of there are you?", the voice asked.
"Just two.", Squall said.
"Your names?", the voice asked.
"Squall, I'm a SeeD from Balamb Garden.", Squall said.
"And the other?", the voice asked.
"….Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Rinoa? The Sorceress? She's on the ship!", the voice asked.
So it's true? Rinoa is a Sorceress?, Squall thought.
"I've become a sorceress… I can't stay with you anymore, Squall.", Rinoa said. She curled up.
"Respond, Ragnorak!", the speaker said.
"I don't want the future. I want the present to stand still. I just want to stay here with you…", Rinoa said.
Rinoa, Squall thought.
"Respond, Ragnorak!", the voice from the speaker called.
"No one would want to be around me anymore.", Rinoa said, bringing her legs to her face.
"The Sorceress will be seized upon arrival. Be sure to follow the crews instructions.", the speaker said.
"I'm… scared.", Rinoa said.
"Squall, do you copy?", the speaker asked.
Squall shut the speaker off. Squall knelt next to his true love, Rinoa.
"I don't wanna go back.", Rinoa said. Squall held Rinoa's hand. Squall wrapped his arms around Rinoa and hugged her.
"I'll stay with you, Rinoa. I'll always be with you.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa kissed.
"I wish we could always be together.", Rinoa said.
"I'll hold you forever.", Squall said, holding Rinoa in his arms through the night.
I don't know what to do. This is another crossroad in my life, but for the first time, I don't know which way to turn. I've come this far because I've… fallen for you. Rinoa… Am I just supposed to let you go?, Squall thought. The night ended. The next morning, Squall and Rinoa arrived back on land. They climbed out of the ship.
"Are you ready?", Squall asked.
"Yes.", Rinoa said.
"Let's go.", Squall told Rinoa. Squall and Rinoa held hands.
"Sorceress Rinoa.", a voice said
"Come with us. We must seal your powers away.", another person said.
"…All right.", Rinoa said.
"Thank you for understanding. Tell us when you're ready.", the person said.
"…I should tell you this before I go. I was possessed out in space. Another sorceress was inside of me. Ultimecia, a Sorceress from the future. She's trying to achieve time compression. "She's the only one who would be able to exist in such a world. She and no other. As long as I'm free, she'll use me to accomplish her goal. I… we can't let that happen, right? I should go now. I'm ready.", Rinoa said.
"All right. We'll be heading to the Sorceress Memorial.", the person said. The other people left. Rinoa looked back at Squall and waved. Squall ran after her.
"Rinoa! Don't go!", Squall exclaimed.
"….Thanks, Squall. But I have to go.", Rinoa said.
Rinoa, Squall thought.
"…..Oh, I still have your ring.", Rinoa said.
"You keep it.", Squall said.
"You sure?", Rinoa asked.
"Yeah..", Squall said. Rinoa left. Squall looked after her. This is what Rinoa decided. There's nothing I can do about it, right?, Squall thought. I love Rinoa, Squall thought.
Squall looked after Rinoa. As she left, Squall looked forward. Squall stood in the place where he and Rinoa were. Squall wished sadly. Squall turned around and walked back on the Ragnorak. Squall walked from room to room, remembering his time with Rinoa on the ship. Squall sighed sadly. Squall walked over to the many seats. Squall sat down.
What should I do?, Squall thought. "Why did this have to happen?", Squall asked aloud. Squall looked down.
"When you went to space, Rinoa was all you could think about.", Quistis said, entering.
"Hey.", Squall replied. Squall kept thinking of Rinoa and didn't ask how Quistis got there. I miss Rinoa, Squall thought.
"Where's Rinoa?" Quistis asked.
"Rinoa…", Squall began. "Rinoa is…"
"Hey Squall.", Zell said entering.
"Hey.", Squall replied.
"When you were in space all you thought of was Rinoa, I hear. Edea couldn't achieve what she wanted to. Edea's not a sorceress now. She passed her powers down to someone.", Zell said.
To Rinoa…, Squall thought.
"Lunatic Pandora came and a lot of stuff happened. Things were falling down. Adel came down. Dr. Odine talked to us all. So many things happened and…", Zell said.
"That's enough for now.", Squall said.
"This is important.", Zell told him.
"I know. There's a lot of problems. But I can't think right now.", Squall said.
"Why?", Zell asked.
"Rinoa is a sorceress now. An escourt from Esthar came to pick Rinoa up. Rinoa's in Esthar now.", Squall said.
"Did they capture her?", Selphie asked.
"No. It was Rinoa's decision. She was scared of being a sorceress… Scared of being feared. She was loved by me. She was scared of being feared…. Hated… she was scared no one would want to be around her anymore. She said she couldn't handle that… I wanted to protect her. She's my girlfriend now. We finally became a couple. I love her.", Squall said.
"You should've stopped her.", Irvine said.
"It was Rinoa's decision. What right did I have to object?", Squall asked.
"Squall, you need to save her. You risked your life to save her in space. It was because you wanted to be with Rinoa. You may never see her again now. Now are you just going to let her go after all you've been through to get together?", Zell asked.
I guess… What am I thinking? I may never get to hear Rinoa's voice again. What the hell am I doing? What can I do? Of course…
"We are going to Esthar, right?", Zell asked.
"Pandora whatever and Adel can wait. I don't even know what to do everywhere else. The only thing I know is Rinoa. The only thing I want to do for sure right now is Rinoa. We're going to get Rinoa back!", Squall exclaimed.
"Whoa!", Zell exclaimed.
"I think Selphie is up there.", Squall said.
"Irvine's up there too! I'm going now!", Zell exclaimed.
"He's fallen hard.", Squall said.
"He's fallen hard.", Quistis said, pointing to Squall.
"I better follow him to make sure there're no accidents.", Squall said. Squall ran up.
"We are flying!", Selphie exclaimed.
"You are an incredible girl.", Irvine said.
"Selphie, come here!", Zell exclaimed.
"He's a bit jealous.", Irvine said.
"There's no guarantee what will happen.", Selphie said.
You can't predict the future, right?, Squall thought, remembering Rinoa.
"Head for Esthar. Rinoa's at the Sorceress Memorial. We're gonna go rescue Rinoa!", Squall exclaimed.
"I guess this is it.", Rinoa said. Rinoa looked around the Sorceress Memorial. She made a decision. She was scared though. The thought of never being able to see Squall again worried her. "If this is for the best, I guess I should do it.", Rinoa said.
"You'll be fine.", a technician said.
"I hope so.", Rinoa said.
Squall ran up the stairs to the Sorceress Memorial. He was going to get Rinoa back no matter what.
"You want to see her off? I'll make an exception, go ahead.", the guard at the door said. Squall charged in.
"This is a restricted area. You must leave.", a technician said.
"No! I won't leave. I'm here to do what I should've done earlier! I'll never know unless I do it!", Squall exclaimed.
"What are you talking about?", the technician asked.
"I know what I want and what I have to do. There's still a chance. I'm not gonna look back. I'm taking Rinoa with me.", Squall said.
"You must be joking. It's too late.", the engineer said. Squall looked at his teammates who showed their weapons. Squall ran passed the engineer. The security alarm went off. Squall didn't care.
Rinoa watched and saw Squall. Squall's here! He's come to save me!, Rinoa thought happily.
Squall ran up to the place Rinoa was confined in. Squall saw Rinoa inside a glass confinement.
"Rinoa, hold on! I'll get you out in a sec!", Squall exclaimed. Squall punched the glass. "What am I supposed to do? Come on!", Squall exclaimed. Squall took his gunblade and cut the wires.
Squall watched as the wires split. Squall saw Rinoa. He smiled. Rinoa looked back at him and smiled. Squall and Rinoa ran to each other. Squall and Rinoa hugged. Squall wrapped his arms around Rinoa tightly as they embraced. Squall gently brushed Rinoa's hair with his hands and closed his eyes. Rinoa closed her eyes as she relaxed in his embrace.
"Squall, don't! I'm a sorceress.", Rinoa said.
"I don't care.", Squall told her.
"Rinoa, Squall!", Squall's teammates called.
"Let's go.", Squall said. Squall hugged Rinoa once more.
"Squall, I'm so glad.", Rinoa said.
"Me too.", Squall whispered. I am so glad I can be with her again. My girlfriend, Squall thought.
"Thank you so much.", Rinoa said. I love him so much. My boyfriend, Rinoa thought, hugging her boyfriend.
Squall and Rinoa kissed passionately.
"Rinoa…", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa held hands as they ran down the steps. As they ran out the doors, a man appeared, letting the other guards let Squall and Rinoa go.
I've seen that man before, Squall thought. Squall and Rinoa ran down the steps together.
"Thank you so much, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"No problem, just doing what I want, for the person I love.", Squall said. Squall stepped onto the Ragnorak and picked Rinoa up in his arms as he carried her onto the ship. Squall smiled. Rinoa linked her arm through Squall's as they walked up.
"What's wrong, Rinoa?", Squall asked.
"I'm just a little…embarrassed.", Rinoa said.
"Why?", Squall asked.
"I was so set on staying in Esthar. But then, when you guys rescued me… It made me so happy, and…", Rinoa said, trailing off.
"It's fine. We did it for you, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Thanks… everybody.", Rinoa said.
"I'm so glad you're back.", Squall told her. We are together again, Squall thought.
"Why are you being so quiet, Squall?", Zell asked.
I have a lot on my mind,Squall thought.
"Squall can be the way he likes to be.", Rinoa said, grabbing Squall's arm.
"What do we do now? Where will we find Seifer?", Zell asked.
"I hope we can help Seifer.", Squall said.
"Then there's Ultimecia. We're SeeDs, we're here to destroy sorceresses, right?", Zell asked.
"ZELL! RINOA'S HERE!", Squall exclaimed.
"I'm sorry.", Zell said.
"Where are we going now?", Irvine asked.
"Umm… Can we go to that orphanage you guys were talking about in Trabia?", Rinoa asked.
"There's nothing to see there.", Selphie said.
"I want to stay away from places where there are lots of people… I'm a sorceress. If Ultimecia possesses me again…", Rinoa began.
"Let's go. Head to Edea's house.", Squall said.
"I'm going through so many emotions at once. Will I ever be at peace?", Rinoa asked Squall.
"I'll always be by your side.", Squall told Rinoa. We are truly boyfriend and girlfriend, Squall thought.
"Thanks, Squall.", Rinoa said. We will always be together, Rinoa thought.
"Let's go.", Squall said. Squall put his arm around Rinoa.
"We are here.", Zell said. They arrived at Edea's house.
"It's just as I remembered.", Squall said.
"I remember this place.", Rinoa said.
"Let's go to the flower field.", Squall said.
"Yes.", Rinoa said. Rinoa put her arm through Squall's.
"You guys are great together.", Zell said.
"Thank you.", Rinoa told him.
"I never thought Squall could be so romantic.", Zell said.
"Zell, I know that you are together with a certain somebody as well.", Rinoa said.
"The way I am with Rinoa is the way he wants to be with Selphie.", Squall said.
"You mean the way we are.", Zell said.
"When did this happen?", Squall asked.
"He's just full of surprises.", Rinoa said.
"You are perfect for each other.", Selphie said to Squall.
"You are perfect for each other as well.", Rinoa said to Selphie.
"The four of us are all in great relationships.", Squall said.
"Squall, no matter how much you tried to keep away, Rinoa helped you. Rinoa is all that's on your mind.", Quistis said.
"Who knows…", Rinoa said.
"Good luck, guys.", Irvine told them.
"Thank you so much.", Rinoa said.
"We'll leave you alone.", Zell said as they exited.
"It's just you and me.", Squall said to Rinoa.
"Yeah, just you and me.", Rinoa said. Squall and I are boyfriend and girlfriend now. We kissed a few times and we are now together, Rinoa thought.
"What's on your mind?", Squall asked.
"What'll become of me?", Rinoa asked.
"Don't worry about it. There've been many good sorceresses. Edea was one.", Squall said.
"But Edea's still… I can't guarantee anything, either, if Ultimecia possesses me again… You saw me. She controlled me in outer space and made me break Adel's seal. What might happen next time? What will I end up doing? Will I end up fighting everyone?... Scary thought, isn't it?", Rinoa asked.
Rinoa…I love you, Squall thought.
Rinoa.. Even if you end up as the world's enemy, I'll… I'll be your knight, Squall thought. Squall nodded his head.
"If I fall under Ultimecia's control again… SeeD will come kill me, right? And the leader of SeeD is you, Squall... Squall's sword will pierce my heart…… I guess it's ok if it's you, Squall. Nobody else. Squall, if that ever happens…", Rinoa said.
"That's enough!", Squall exclaimed, turning around. I love Rinoa, my girlfriend. , Squall thought. "I'll never do anything like that. The sorceress I am after is not you, Rinoa. You know that I love you. My enemy is the sorceress from the future… Ultimecia.", Squall said.
"Ultimecia lives in the future and possesses me. She uses my body as an extension to this world. How? How will you save me?", Rinoa asked. Rinoa leaned forward.
"I'll come up with something… There's gotta be a way.", Squall said. I don't want to leave you ever again, Squall thought.
"…..", Rinoa said, trailing off. Squall is so sweet, Rinoa thought.
"Rinoa, what's wrong?", Squall asked.
"Nothing.", Rinoa said.
"Come on, be honest.", Squall said.
"I'm a bit worried, but I'm so happy with you.", Rinoa told him.
"Really?", Squall asked.
"Of course. I love you, Squall. Being with you makes me feel great, like I can do anything.", Rinoa said.
"I'll make sure to help you.", Squall said.
"I'm a bit worried though, I mean, if I'm taken over again. I'm worried about what we'll do", Rinoa said, looking off.
"Don't worry. Trust me.", Squall said.
"…I trust you. Well, until you find a way, maybe… Maybe I should stay in Esthar, at the Memorial? Wouldn't that be better?", Rinoa asked.
"No… That'd be pointless. I'd just end up going after you again.", Squall said. I don't want to leave you ever again, Squall thought. "Rinoa… just stay close to me.", Squall said.
"Oh… Those words!", Rinoa exclaimed. Rinoa clapped her hands, happily.
"What?", Squall asked.
"That's what started everything.", Rinoa said. Rinoa leaned forward.
"Huh? What are you talking about?", Squall asked.
"You don't remember?", Rinoa asked. Squall's so silly and that's why I love him, Rinoa thought.
"Something I said?", Squall asked. I hope she doesn't get mad, Squall thought.
"Oh! Just forget it!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"No, it's because of the guardian force. That's why I forget.", Squall said. It has to be true, right?, Squall thought.
"That's just an excuse.", Rinoa said.
"Sorry.", Squall said.
"Squall, it was at the Sorceress Parade, when you helped me.", Rinoa said.
"Yes… I remember.", Squall said.
"You told me to stay close to you. Those words gave me comfort and that's when I began to fall for you.", Rinoa said.
"I'm honored. Even though I teased you, you still fell for me. I loved being around you, too. We'd argue a lot, but I liked it.", Squall said.
"Thanks so much.", Rinoa said.
"Feeling better?", Squall asked.
"Yeah. Can I tell you a story? I had a dream. It was a scary dream. We make a promise. We promise to see shooting stars together. I get dressed up and put on your ring. But the thing is, I can't remember where I'm supposed to meet you. I start to panic. I really want to see you, Squall, but I don't know where to go. I start running through the mountains, the desert, the plains...Through Timber, Balamb and Galbadia... When I realize I can't run any longer...I...I just want to see you so badly... So I scream, Squall, where are you? Then I woke up. I was crying. I'm sorry. You don't have to say anything. I just felt like I had to tell you.", Rinoa said. I hope he doesn't freak out, Rinoa thought.
"It was just a dream… It doesn't mean anything. Don't worry about it.", Squall said. Now I'm worried, Squall thought.
"…I guess you're right.", Rinoa said.
"I know, we can find a way to meet.", Squall said.
"Did you come up with an idea?", Rinoa asked.
"How about this… I'll be here…", Squall began.
"…Why?", Rinoa asked. Rinoa leaned forward, interested.
"The reason you couldn't find me is because we haven't promised yet.", Squall told her.
"Promised…?", Rinoa asked.
"I'll be waiting for you. If you come here, you'll find me. I promise.", Squall said.
"I'll be here, too. It's a promise!", Rinoa said. She jumped happily. "Thanks, Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed. "Next time, we'll meet for sure!", Rinoa said.
Rinoa kissed Squall.
"Rinoa, you are everything to me and I love you more then anyone in the world.", Squall said.
"I know. I love you more then anyone in the world.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa… I made a promise to myself that even if the world is fighting you, I'll be your knight.", Squall said.
"Squall…", Rinoa said.
Squall hugged Rinoa. "I felt that we were here, long ago…", Squall said, trailing off.
"Yes. I remember these words clearly.", Rinoa said.
"Whoa!", Zell exclaimed.
"Zell, where did you come from?", Squall asked.
"Sorry to interrupt. Only, it's an emergency. Ultimecia has a big plan and these guys have a plan to defeat Ultimecia. It's a long story. The people at Esthar wanted to contact SeeD to operate it.", Zell said.
"Might be a trap to get Rinoa back in Esthar.", Squall said. I don't want to lose Rinoa again, Squall thought.
"The guy we spoke to is named Kiros.", Zell said.
"It could be that Kiros. Maybe he wants to hire us. I'll promise to protect Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall put his arm through Rinoa's and held her close. "I'll be here for you.", Squall whispered in Rinoa's ear.
Squall and Rinoa walked onto the beach. They saw Edea.
"Squall, I see you and Rinoa are together. I'm happy for you. When you were a child, Rinoa came one day to meet. I hear you made a promise to meet her in the flower field.", Edea said.
"Squall made a promise right now.", Rinoa said.
"Once again, you promised to meet in the flower field. You did. You met again. When Squall was a child he was afraid of being alone. You, Rinoa, made him feel better.", Edea said.
"Thanks.", Rinoa told her.
"I am sorry about me giving you my powers. It must be difficult.", Edea said.
"I need advice from you, as an experienced sorceress.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, you need a knight in order to survive. Adel didn't have one and Ultimecia might not either.", Edea said.
"Do you have one?", Rinoa asked.
"He's standing right beside me. Find yourself a knight. What's wrong?", Edea asked.
"I think I have an apprentice knight.", Rinoa said.
"Apprentice knight? That's all?", Squall asked.
"Not just an apprentice knight. A real knight.", Rinoa said.
"You are both a knight to the sorceress and a SeeD. I wish you luck.", Edea told Squall. Squall and Rinoa walked back outside. Rinoa wrapped her arms around Squall's arm.
"Thank you.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa walked out together.
"Squall!", Edea said. Squall and Rinoa turned around. "There is something I must tell you. It takes place about 13 years ago. When I was a child, I became a sorceress. Thirteen years ago I had encountered a Sorceress on the verge of death. I received her powers. I would not let her harm the children. The story began and now it has ended. There is an end. Even if you go through pain, things will get better. Squall, you must fight to the end. Tragedy may come, but you and Rinoa must hang on.", Edea said.
"Thank you, Matron.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa exited the home, arm in arm.
"Squall, you helped me out so much.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, you're the one who helped me out.", Squall said. Squall felt so happy. Squall smiled. Rinoa is the one who makes me smile, Squall thought.
"Where to next?", Rinoa asked.
"We need to go the Esthar.", Squall said.
"Finally, I can visit it with you.", Rinoa told him.
"Yeah.", Squall said. Squall smiled at Rinoa as they headed toward the Ragnorak.
"How about we go to Dollet?", Rinoa asked.
"Hm?", Squall questioned.
"You know, on a date.", Rinoa said.
"Sure, Rin.", Squall said.
"Rin, I like that, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"Anyway, ready to head there?", Squall asked.
"Sure.", Rinoa said. They walked onto the Ragnorak.
"We are heading to Dollet.", Squall said as they went to the top.
"Dollet it is.", Irvine said.
"First, I need to go somewhere. Rinoa, want to come?", Squall asked.
"Yes.", Rinoa said. The Ragnorak was piloted to Garden as they entered.
"Okay.", Rinoa said. Squall led Rinoa to a certain room.
"I thought you should meet Rinoa.", Squall said.
"I met Rinoa a lot.", Ellone said.
"We are going out now and I'm sorry we had to break it off.", Squall said.
"No sweat, I'm going out with someone new as well.", Ellone said.
"Already? Rinoa and I recently got together and you're already going out with someone else?", Squall asked.
"That is true, maybe we can go on some good dates.", Ellone said.
"I'm glad for you. Rinoa and I are doing great.", Squall said.
"I'm glad we are all happy.", Rinoa said.
"Ellone, are you ready yet?", a voice asked.
"You're kidding.", Rinoa said.
"You learn something new everyday.", Squall said, watching as Nida entered.
"We'll be going on our own date now, bye.", Rinoa said.
"I'm glad Ellone's happy, because now we can be happier, Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall put his arm around Rinoa as they walked outside.
"The Ragnorak is right there.", Rinoa said, leaning her head on Squall's shoulder.
"Let's go.", Squall said. They entered the Ragnorak.
"A private date, just the two of us.", Rinoa said.
"You don't have your license, do you?", Squall asked.
"I never got my license and never had the test.", Rinoa said.
"You're so silly.", Squall said.
"I bet you got your license right away.", Rinoa teased.
"Actually, I drove on the wrong side of the road, forgot to turn my lights on at the right time, turned my light on at the wrong time, crashed into a couple of cars and couldn't parallel park the first time. I also failed the permit test three times. Now I'm an excellent driver though and a better pilot.", Squall said.
"Now I'm scared.", Rinoa teased.
"You don't even have a license.", Squall said.
"Let's just go to Dollet.", Rinoa said, Squall piloted the Ragnorak to Dollet. He landed the plane as they arrived there. Squall and Rinoa walked out on the ground and entered Dollet.
"It's so nice here.", Rinoa said. Rinoa grabbed Squall's arm.
"I knew you'd like it.", Squall said.
"It'll be a happier time then our last time there.", Rinoa said.
"Oh yes it will.", Squall told her. Rinoa wrapped her arms around Squall's arm.
"It's nice here.", Rinoa said as they walked through the town.
"Here's a restaurant.", Squall said, leading Rinoa towards a restaurant.
"It's lovely in here.", Rinoa said. They entered the restaurant and sat down.
"Rinoa, you look really happy.", Squall said.
"Well, it's our first official date.", Rinoa told him.
"I thought our time at the orphanage was our date.", Squall said.
"Whatever.", Rinoa replied, giggling.
"Hey! That's my line. My line!", Squall exclaimed, laughing.
"What will we order?", Rinoa asked.
"Hey, waiter, come here.", Squall called.
"Squall!", Rinoa said. They began to laugh.
"What is it?", the waiter asked.
"Can we get some food?", Squall asked him.
"Yes. What shall you have?", the waiter asked them.
"I'd like dumplings, an eggroll and rice.", Rinoa said.
"I'll have what she's having.", Squall said, laughing.
"Very well then, what shall you drink?", the waiter asked.
"Coke.", Rinoa and Squall said at the same time, laughing.
"Coke?", the waiter asked.
"Yeah.", they said, giggling.
"Very well then.", the waiter said, walking away.
"Rinoa, after this, want me to make your ring better?", Squall asked her.
"I love this ring necklace, though.", Rinoa said.
"Now we can make a ring just for you so both our rings are on there.", Squall said.
"Thanks.", Rinoa replied. I love being with him, Rinoa thought. Rinoa smiled over at Squall.
"Why are you smiling?", Squall asked.
"I'm just really happy.", Rinoa said, laughing.
"Are you laughing at me?", Squall asked.
"No, no, it's not that.", Rinoa said.
"What is it, then?", Squall asked.
"Being together with you is so great. Being your girlfriend and all.", Rinoa said, blushing.
"It's hard to believe everything is going so fast, huh?", Squall asked.
"You are my first real boyfriend.", Rinoa said.
"Me? Squall? What about my best friend you were with?", Squall asked.
"We were close, but we never went out or anything. I liked him a lot before I met you, but I never knew how he felt.", Rinoa said.
"Did you like him more then you liked me?", Squall asked.
"Squall, you are my boyfriend. My feelings for you are so strong. Yes, I had feelings for Seifer before I met you, my feelings for you, Squall, are very strong. I love you more then I've loved anybody.", Rinoa said, blushing.
"Really? Do you know me that well?", Squall said.
"Very well. Remember?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes! I remember. That time in the orphanage. It was fun. The way we fell in love, it was a love and hate thing. First you got angry at me, then you fell for me, right?", Squall asked.
"Although you drove me nuts at times, Squall, deep down I think I knew that at some point I was bound to fall in love with you.", Rinoa said.
"Now we've been dating for two days.", Squall told her.
"I'm glad you are my boyfriend.", Rinoa said.
"You know, even though I'd gone out before I met you, you, Rinoa, gave me my first kisses.", Squall said.
"Really?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes.", Squall said.
"I'm surprised.", Rinoa told him.
"Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall took Rinoa's hands in his. Squall leaned forward and kissed Rinoa.
"That will be our fifth kiss.", Rinoa said, giggling.
"The food is here.", Squall said.
"That was quick.", Rinoa replied. Now we can eat, Rinoa thought, smiling at Squall.
"You eat fast.", Squall teased.
"You still love teasing me about that, huh, Squall?", Rinoa asked.
"I love it so much, yes I do.", Squall said, laughing.
"This is great food.", Rinoa said.
"You love all food.", Squall teased.
"Not all food.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, I'm teasing you.", Squall said, smiling. After they finished their food, they stood up.
"Where shall we go next?", Rinoa asked.
"Shall we?", Squall teased.
"Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed. "Ah!", Rinoa yelled. Squall wrapped his arms around Rinoa and hugged her. "Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"I just love holding you.", Squall said.
"I like being held by you.", Rinoa said.
"Why are you smiling?", Squall asked.
"Why not?", Rinoa questioned.
"I love to see you smile.", Squall said. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"People are staring, Squall.", Rinoa said. I love Squall's kisses, Rinoa thought.
"Let them stare.", Squall said, smiling.
"Squall, when did you become this outgoing?", Rinoa asked.
"Rinoa, you helped me become more outgoing. We both helped each other become more outgoing. That is one of the reasons I can be who I am today.", Squall said.
"Squall…", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, ready to go to our next place on our date?", Squall asked.
"You bet.", Rinoa said.
"Let's walk through town.", Squall said.
"Oh, yes.", Rinoa said. Rinoa linked her arm through Squall's.
"Remember the water fountain?", Squall asked.
"Of course.", Rinoa said as they looked at the well.
"It brings back memories.", Squall said.
"Oh yes it does.", Rinoa told him. Rinoa gently dipped her hand in the water fountain.
"Want to make a wish again?", Squall asked.
"Alright.", Rinoa said. Squall handed Rinoa one gil.
"Oh, and what was your wish last time?", Squall asked.
"I can't tell you.", Rinoa said.
"Tell me.", Squall demanded playfully.
"I can't.", Rinoa said, giggling. Squall went up to her.
"Tell me.", Squall said.
"It was… to be with you.", Rinoa said.
"Mine was for you to be happy.", Squall said.
"Squall… you're so sweet.", Rinoa began.
"Let's make another wish.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa both tossed in one gil into the fountain.
"What did you wish for?", Rinoa asked.
"I wished for you and me to be together forever.", Squall said.
"Me too.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa kissed passionately.
"Squall, we do have things in common.", Rinoa said.
"Of course, we're not complete opposites.", Squall said. Squall put his arm around Rinoa. Soon it became night.
"This has to be the longest date ever.", Rinoa said.
"Look, fireworks!", Squall exclaimed, pointing to a firework show above.
"Wow.", Rinoa said.
"Rin, this is great.", Squall said.
"Rin…", Rinoa said.
"Rin or Rinoa?", Squall asked.
"Rinoa.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, this is great.", Squall said.
"I like both versions.", Rinoa said.
"You love to confuse me, my Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall put his arm around Rinoa.
"This is so romantic.", Rinoa said, leaning her head towards Squall's shoulder.
"Yes it is.", Squall said. Squall gently kissed Rinoa.
"Squall…", Rinoa said. They walked back to Garden.
"I guess we should go to our dorms.", Squall said.
"Yeah, good night.", Rinoa said. I love you so much, Squall, my boyfriend, Rinoa thought.
"Night.", Squall said, giving Rinoa one last kiss. Rinoa is my true love, Squall thought.
The next morning, Rinoa woke up. Rinoa opened her eyes. She had felt better this morning then any morning, ever. Her day with Squall last night was so romantic. Rinopa walked into Garden with a smile on her face.
"This is so great.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa.", a voice said.
"Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed, turning around.
"Good morning.", Squall said, smiling.
"Good morning.", Rinoa said, blushing.
"How's my girlfriend?", Squall asked.
"Great.", Rinoa said.
"Thanks, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"How's my boyfriend?", Rinoa asked.
"Wonderful.", Squall said. Squall walked over to Rinoa and wrapped his arms around her.
"Squall.", Rinoa said, relaxing in his embrace.
"Hey, guys.", Zell said.
"Hello, Zell,", Squall said.
"Hey, Rinoa.", Selphie said.
"Hey, Selphie.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, I think we are all here.", Squall said.
"Oh, yes, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"I'm guessing we could have a double date with them, eh, Rinoa?", Squall asked.
"That'd be nice.", Rinoa said.
"We're going somewhere.", Zell said.
"Yeah.", Selphie told them.
"We're going somewhere.", Squall said.
"Yeah.", Rinoa told them.
"Wow, we have things in common.", Zell said.
"Anyway, I decided to spend today with Rinoa, so we can have a long get together later.", Squall said.
"Where are we going, Squall?", Rinoa asked. I'm so excited, Rinoa thought.
"You'll see.", Squall said, with his arm around Rinoa.
"Hee hee.", Rinoa said. Rinoa felt so great with Squall.
"Rin.", Squall said.
"Hee.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa.", Squall said.
"I said you could call me either.", Rinoa told him.
"Let's have breakfast.", Squall said, walking Rinoa to the cafeteria. As they entered the cafeteria, all eyes were on them.
"Who is she?", one student asked.
"Squall's new girlfriend, Rinoa.", another student said.
"Rinoa?", another student asked.
"I guess I'm not that popular.", Rinoa said.
"That doesn't matter to me, Rinoa.", Squall said, holding her closer.
"Aw, Squall.", Rinoa said. He is the sweetest, Rinoa thought.
"Come on, Rinoa.", Squall said. Squall led Rinoa to the cafeteria line. After they ordered, Squall and Rinoa walked over to a table. Squall's arm was around Rinoa.
"Now, let's eat.", Squall said.
"I eat quite fast.", Rinoa teased.
"So, what's up, Rin?", Squall asked.
"Squall…", Rinoa said.
"So, what's up, Rinoa?", Squall asked.
"I did like both names though. I just get all giggly whenever you call me that name.", Rinoa said.
"What's going on?", Squall asked.
"I'm just so glad that you're here.", Rinoa said, smiling at Squall, her boyfriend.
"I'm glad you're here.", Squall said. They sat across from each other at lunch.
"Sorry I'm unpopular.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, we've been through so much. We've been going out for three days. We have been boyfriend and girlfriend for three days. Do you really think that matters to me?", Squall asked.
"No, just at Garden I feel insecure a bit. I'm completely sure of your love for me, but I'm worried that everyone else's opinions that I'm not worthy of you will affect you. I know it's something I shouldn't think.", Rinoa said.
"I'll kiss you right in front of everyone.", Squall said. With that, Squall kissed Rinoa, his girlfriend, in the cafeteria.
"Squall.", Rinoa said, blushing after their kiss.
"Now do you have any doubts about me?", Squall asked.
"No. I just hope I don't cause you a reputation.", Rinoa said. I love him and want him to feel the best, Rinoa thought.
"Rinoa, why would that matter to me?", Squall asked.
"I don't know.", Rinoa said, looking down.
"It's alright. I understand your worry. Rinoa, I will never leave you. Ever. I will always be with you.", Squall said. Squall took Rinoa's hands in his. My love for you is stronger then ever, Squall thought.
"Squall.", Rinoa said.
"You are important to me. Rinoa, my feelings for you are stronger then any feelings I've ever had in my life.", Squall said.
"Wow, you can be so passionate.", Rinoa said.
"Rinoa, I don't want you to have a single doubt about my love for you.", Squall said.
"I don't anymore.", Rinoa said.
"Anyway, this afternoon let's go to Balamb to get your ring made.", Squall said.
"Alright.", Rinoa said, giggling. This will be so romantic, Rinoa thought.
"Let's go.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa stood up. Rinoa linked her arm through Squall's. Rinoa held onto Squall's arm tightly as they walked happily.
"So, will we walk there?", Rinoa asked.
"Sure.", Squall said. Squall and Rinoa walked to Squall's dorm room.
"Why are we here?", Rinoa asked.
"I thought you'd like to look around my room.", Squall said.
"Are you going to…?", Rinoa asked.
"Rinoa.", Squall said, a smile on his face. Squall laughed.
"Squall!", Rinoa exclaimed, letting go of Squall's arm.
"Come here.", Squall told her. Squall wrapped Rinoa in his arms and hugged her. Rinoa closed her eyes as she relaxed in Squall's embrace.
"Let's go.", Squall said. They got ready to walk to Balamb.
"I'm ready.", Rinoa said.
"Good.", Squall said. This will be great, Squall thought.
"Let's go.", Rinoa said. Rinoa wrapped her arms around Squall's arm.
"The air is fresh.", Squall said, breathing in the fresh air.
"Yeah.", Rinoa said, smiling. They laughed as they arrived at Balamb. It was the afternoon. They entered arm in arm.
"Here's a shop.", Squall said. "Hey, can you remodel this for me?", Squall asked someone.
"Into what?", the person asked. Squall whispered something into their ear. "Alright, then.", the person said, winking at Squall. Squall walked over to Rinoa.
"What was that about?", Rinoa asked.
"Rin.", Squall said.
"What?", Rinoa asked.
"I just like calling you that, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Hee.", Rinoa said, smiling.
"Rinoa.", Squall said.
"What?", Rinoa asked.
"Is there some place you'd like to go?", Squall asked her.
"I don't know.", Rinoa said. Anywhere with you is fine, Rinoa thought.
"Want to visit Timber?", Squall asked.
"Alright.", Rinoa said, smiling.
"We'll take the train.", Squall said.
"I always felt nervous getting on trains as a kid.", Rinoa said.
"Why?", Squall asked.
"The gap.", Rinoa said.
"You are so silly.", Squall said, laughing.
"It's not funny!", Rinoa exclaimed, but then began to laugh along.
"Let's go.", Squall said, as they went onto a train.
"Where shall we sit?", Rinoa asked.
"Here.", quall said. Squall and Rinoa sat down together. This is perfect, Squall thought. Squall looked over at this girlfriend.
"Squall?", Rinoa asked.
"Yeah?", Squall replied.
"I thought you made fun of the few people I hung out with.", Rinoa said.
"I make fun of you and I still love you.", Squall said.
"Anyway, so, when I was in a coma, did you see them?", Squall asked.
"Oh yeah.", Squall said. Oh yes I did, Squall thought.
"Well, let's see them now!", Rinoa exclaimed happily. The train arrived at Timber as they headed to the town. "Wow, Timber. Brings back memories.", Rinoa said. Squall held Rinoa's hand as they walked through Timber together.
"Squall! Rinoa!", Zone yelled.
"Hey, it's these two.", Squall said.
"You're back!", Zone exclaimed.
"Yeah.", Rinoa said.
"We're back.", Squall said.
"You're together.", Zone said.
"Yeah.", Squall said, holding Rinoa's hand tighter.
"Yep.", Rinoa said, smiling up at Squall.
"I thought Rinoa would like to catch up with you.", Squall said.
"It's alright, Squall.", Rinoa told him.
"No. Have fun. I can't burden you all day.", Squall said.
"Squall, you're my boyfriend. You don't burden me.", Rinoa said.
"I'm really glad you're alright. I screamed at Squall when I found out what happened.", Zone said.
"Oh did he ever.", Squall mentioned.
"Poor Squall.", Rinoa said, grabbing Squall's arm.
"Let's talk.", Squall said. They had a long conversation and it was soon late at night.
"We have to return to Garden, bye.", Rinoa said. Squall and Rinoa took a train back to Balamb Garden.
"Let's go to the secret area.", Squall said.
"Okay.", Rinoa said. Squall and Rinoa walked to the secret area together.
"It's just us.", Squall said.
"Me and my boyfriend, you.", Rinoa said, smiling up at Squall.
"Yes, my girlfriend, Rinoa.", Squall said, laughing.
"So, what now?", Rinoa asked.
"Come to me.", Squall said. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"Squall.", Rinoa said, later.
"A certain person we knew always tried to get me here, but now I got you here.", Squall said, smiling.
"We've been through so much, Squall.", Rinoa said.
"Yes, Rinoa. We have.", Squall told her. They looked around for a few minutes. "Shall I walk you back?", Squall asked.
"Alright.", Rinoa said, grinning. Squall walked Rinoa to her room as they went to bed. The next day, Rinoa got up a bit late. She walked through the halls of Garden, smiling.
"Hey, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Squall.", Rinoa said. Rinoa ran over to Squall and hugged him.
"It wasn't even planned.", Squall said, wrapping his arms around Rinoa.
"I woke up late.", Rinoa said. I should've spent the day with Squall, Rinoa thought.
"Yes you did.", Squall told her.
"What now?", Rinoa asked.
"Lunch.", Squall said as they walked to the cafeteria. After they had lunch, Squall took Rinoa to the center of Garden.
"Oh yeah! The rings. Were they remade?", Rinoa asked.
"I got your ring remade. We'll pick it up tonight.", Squall said.
"Alright.", Rinoa told him. "I can't wait.", Rinoa said. Rinoa walked with Squall around Garden. That night, they went to Balamb.
"We are almost there.", Squall said.
"Yay!", Rinoa exclaimed.
"Here we are.", Squall said, when they got to the area.
"Thanks.", Rinoa said, linking her arm through Squall's. When they saw the person, they handed the rings over to Squall.
"Here you go.", the person said.
"Thank you very much.", Squall said. Squall handed Rinoa her ring.
"Thanks, Squall.", Rinoa said. Rinoa examined the ring. "Ah! They made a mistake!", Rinoa said. The ring was in a different shape.
"Hm?", Squall asked.
"They were supposed to make a lion, right?", Rinoa asked.
"No. I told them to make it that way for you.", Squall said.
"Why?", Rinoa asked.
"That's an angel. I told them to make an angel for you, because you are like an angel. I'm like a lion.", Squall said.
"Squall…", Rinoa said. Squall is so sweet, Rinoa thought. Rinoa felt an amazing happiness.
"You are my angel.", Squall said.
"You really mean that?", Rinoa asked.
"You said I'm like a lion. If I'm like a lion, you're like an angel.", Squall said.
"Me?", Rinoa asked.
"The Angel and the Lion. The Angel that cured the Lion.", Squall said.
"Squall.", Rinoa said.
"A kiss for my angel.", Squall said. Squall kissed Rinoa.
"You are the sweetest boyfriend, ever.", Rinoa said.
"I wear this necklace, the sleeping lionheart. You awoke me, Rinoa.", Squall said.
"Really? I, Rinoa, awoke the amazing Squall ?", Rinoa asked.
"Yes, Rin.", Squall said.
"I..", Rinoa said, trailing off.
"Yes, Rinoa. You were the only one who made me be the real me. That's why you mean so much to me.", Squall said.
"You are my angel.", Squall said.
"The angel and the lion.", Rinoa said. I have never been this happy in my entire life. Being Squall's girlfriend is the happiest experience ever. I feel amazing, Rinoa thought. Rinoa walked around with Squall, with a smile on her face.
This ends chapter 7. I hope I wasn't too mushy. I just am a huge Squall and Rinoa fan. I decided to add lots of passion to their love and make them more passionate then in the game. Anyway, I wrote this chapter a long time ago, so it's in a similar style as my other chapters are. I had a lot of fun writing this chapter, I really hope everyone likes it. In the next chapter, Squall and Rinoa visit a person who has a connection to Squall's past.
