Squall frowned after the blonde had bandaged the lesion, "Stupid idiot."
"Who? You! Don't ever get hurt like that again. I can barely stand."
"Ha…why? I'm the one with the wound." Squall laughed incredulously and walked out of the bathroom.
Seifer watched as the brunet struggled to remain standing but exhaustion overpowered him and he finally sat on the blonde's bed.
Seifer's shorts were a tad too large for him but the gentle curve of his hip kept them from slipping. "You push yourself."
Squall snorted and smoothed his hair away from his face.
"Anyway," Seifer noticed the fatigue etched on the brunet's face, "What would you like for lunch?"
"Whatever." Squall fell back against the mattress, his feet still touching the ground.
Seifer smiled, "Okay then. I'll order something."
Squall's voice caught him at the doorway, "Ummm….thanks…you know…I guess."
Seifer winked at him over his shoulder, "No problem, I should be the one thanking you for keeping me alive."
Squall turned and closed his eyes…what could he say to that? He sighed as Seifer left.
This was turning out to be a loooooong day. Grey eyes closed, sleep pulling the unsuspecting brunet into her clutches.
Seifer smiled tenderly as he smoothed a few strands of silky brown hair form the brunet's eyes.
Squall was breathing softly through parted lips that would form the prettiest of smiles if he tired. One hand rested on his exposed navel, the other grasping the edge of the blonde's pillow. Seifer's eyes roamed over the peaceful face, noticing for the first time the long curly dark lashes that framed the grey eyes. Girls would kill for those, Seifer mused.
Getting up, he carried Squall's legs and placed them on the mattress, the brunet not even stirring.
'He must be really exhausted.' Green eyes softened and Seifer covered the brunet, "Sleep tight." He whispered, pulling down the drapes and shutting the door.
Squall slowly opened his eyes and took in his surrounding. 'I slept…' the room was warm… 'Seifer's room…' it registered on him then and he sat up, wincing slightly at the pain in his thigh. 'Guess I won't be running at dawn for a while.' Squall's frown deepened and he got up, squinting in the darkness and making his way to the door.
Seifer didn't notice him come in or sit at the sofa by his head. The music he was listening to through the speakers was faintly audible. Squall raised a brow and rolled his eyes, reaching to nudge the blonde.
Seifer sat up and grinned, "You're awake. I ordered pizza for you, but you were sleeping like a baby when I came in."
Squall shrugged in embarrassment, "I never sleep during the day…it was an accident."
Seifer laughed, "Man, you seriously need to take it easy. Anyway, listen to this while I get your food. It's my favorite song."
Seifer handed Squall the speakers and disappeared into the kitchen. The brunet eyed the speakers in his hand dubiously before he sat back and listened…
'In a world full of darkness
In a life full of sadness
In a dream full of lies
In a place full of cries
When things that once were beautiful can't last
When everything soft and kind disappears fast
When love and dreams are becoming fragile
Why can't you understand?
That when I feel like…I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile
Soak it in a while
If we can hold on
We can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us
So now you are here
A home so near
A warm embrace…a gentle smile
Solace echoing all the while
Tell me you will live through this
I will gladly die for you
Tell me you will never cast me away
I can not bear it all alone
And when it feels like…I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile
Soak it in a while
If we can hold on
We can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us
So pull me to you
Give me a chance
Convince me we are free
Tell me you love me
Cause now I feel like I can feel once again
Let me stay awhile
Soak it in a while
If we can hold on
We can fix what is wrong
Buy a little time
For this head of mine
Haven for us
Haven for us
Haven for us.'
