Childhood Memories
Chapter 11: The Reunion
Author's P.O.V
"We'll never find them!" Celia said following behind Saul who just squeezed himself in between two bushes.
"Would you stop nagging?" Saul said irritated.
"What about my Zidane? What if he got a boo boo?" Celia continued to cry out loud.
Saul slapped his hand over his forehead and turned towards Celia. "Look! I'm sure he's fine." Saul said really irritated.
"How do you know?" Celia asked as she continued to follow Saul.
But before Saul was able to answer, they came upon an airship. Saul walked up to the airship in amazement. Celia followed after him amazed too.
"An airship? Out here?" Saul asked himself looking up at the airship. "Great! We can jack it."
"But don't you think its weird how someone would just leave a perfectly good airship in the middle of no where?" Celia asked looking at the airship strangely.
"Yeah, I know. But we need to take the airship to find Zidane and Missy." Saul said.
"I guess its okay. I mean maybe it's just destined that we ran into an airship." Celia asked.
"Well then I guess we have to-," But before Saul was able to finish, Seth and Blank showed up from behind a couple of bushes.
"Huh?" Seth said looking over at Celia and Saul who stood by the airship. "What are you kids doing out here?"
Saul quickly brought out his sling shot that hung on his belt and placed a medal stone from his pocket on the rubber band and pulled it back.
"Don't move or I'll let go. Hurry Celia, start the airship." Saul said facing his sling shot towards Blank and Seth.
Blank gave out a laugh. "Look kid…" Blank then started to walk towards Saul. "…Stop playing around and let us-," Saul shot the medal stone straight towards Blanks head.
"YOU LITTLE TWERP!!!" Blank yelled and raised his fist up at him.
"I told you don't move." Saul said.
"You're doing it all wrong." Seth whispered over to Blank. "Watch this."
Seth then smiled at Saul. "Hi there! What a good boy, yes you are, oh yes you are. Come here boy, I'll tickle your belly and—OW!" Saul sent another one over to Seth's head.
"I'm not a dog!" Saul called out to them.
"That's it kid! Your about to get the biggest butt whooping of you life if you don't stop throwing those rocks!" Blank said angrily.
"Try me!" Saul said sticking his tongue out towards Blank.
"You asked for it kid!" Blank was right about to charge for Saul when Zidane and Missy came out from behind the bushes laughing about something, not noticing what was happening at all.
Missy's P.O.V
"Missy!" Saul called. I turned my head towards the direction I heard my name call from, but got interrupted by an impact by my side. Saul wrapped his arms around my waist and gave me a small hug before letting go.
"Missy where were you guys? We were looking all over for you guys!" Saul said with a desperate face on.
"We?" Zidane said confused not knowing who 'we' was. He then felt an impact from the front and fell to the ground. Celia jumped on him sending both of them down to the ground. She laid on him still embracing him. She then started to cry.
"Oh Zidane! I was so worried…that you might have died." Celia said still on him.
"A…that's nice. Um…I missed you too." Zidane lied giving her a small pat on her back. She then got up off him and whipped away her tears. Zidane got up and started to dust off his pants.
"Let me help you." Celia said starting to help Zidane dust off his pants.
"That's okay I got-Whoa!" Zidane jumped away from Celia when she slapped his butt.
"Oh…sorry!" Celia said giggling at the same time.
"Yeah…" Zidane said stepping away from Celia a little.
Is it me or did she do that on purpose? Zidane thought.
How nasty could she get!? She must still like Zidane even after that incident we had. She's such a slut! Why would anyone like her-Whoa! Am I jealous? I can't be. I mean, why would I be?
"Hey Zidane, you wanna sit next to me on the airship? We can-," I quickly interrupted Celia before she dragged him into the airship.
"Zidane didn't you forget to…um…grab your dagger you left stabbed in the tree?" I said giving Zidane a wink hoping he would get it. At first he looked at me confused but then got the message.
"Oh, that's right! Geez! How could I forget?" Zidane said shrugging his shoulders. "I'll meet up with you in the airship later." Zidane said to Celia, walking towards me.
"Okay. Don't forget!" Celia said walking to the airship. As soon as she was out of our sight we started to talk again.
"She's crazy!" Zidane said quickly.
"You think so?" I asked not looking at Zidane and walking up to the rock next to me, and sitting on it.
"I know so!" Zidane said leaning against the tree next to me.
"You're so mean." I said, kind of laughing.
"I'm only telling the truth." Zidane said with his hands behind his head.
"Well, I'm sure you did something like that to a girl at least once." I said now looking at him.
"Heh, heh. I accidentally grabbed Princess Garnet's…you know." He said scratching the back of his head kind of embarrassed. "You must have done something too?"
"Sorry, but my names not Zidane. I'm a good girl! I've never done anything bad." I said proud of myself.
"You're kidding me! You must have at least beaten up someone or stole something." Zidane said.
"Never. Even though I was taught how to fight." I simply said.
"You must have at least done something wrong?" Zidane said standing up straight now.
"To tell you the truth, ever since I left you and Baku I was locked up in my house." I said with no sadness in my voice at all.
"Locked up?" he asked again.
"I wasn't allowed to leave the house unless my foster mom was with me." I said, looking at my fingers as if it was suddenly interesting.
"So you mean you've never left your house exactly?" Zidane said.
"Yeah. I guess." I said.
"But what about your friends and all?" He asked.
"I didn't have any." I simply said.
"You didn't even have a boyfriend?" He asked really shocked now.
"No. Never," I said.
"Geez! Even I dated more then I can handle. But you didn't even have at least one? You're joking right?" he asked.
"I didn't really care for boyfriends." I said, standing up off the rock and walked towards the airship. Zidane chased after me.
"So are you interested in having one?" Zidane asked which made me stop walking. I turned towards him curious.
"Why?" I asked.
"Just asking." Zidane said quickly.
"I don't know." I said, now continuing to walk towards the airship.
"Not even a tinny bit?" Zidane said, using his hand and making a small spot in between his pointer and thumb to indicate a tinny bit. He stood in front of me to prevent me from walking any further. I gave out a small sigh.
"Zidane. Why do you want to know so badly?" I asked putting my hands up on my hips.
"Because-," Seth interrupted Zidane's sentence when he called down from up on the airship.
"WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE! YOU GUYS NEED TO GET ON!" Seth called down to them from up on the airship.
"Let's get on before they leave without us." I said, walking up to the ladder on the side of the airship leading up to the dock.
As soon as we reached the top of the dock, Celia was there waiting for Zidane already.
"Come on Zidane!" She hurried over to Zidane and grabbed his hand.
"Wait! I mean…ugh…You know I would like to come with you but my back is acting up again. I need to go and lay down on a bed." Zidane said, grabbing onto his back and hutching forward.
"Oh your poor thing! Let me help you by messaging your back." Celia said, running behind him and was going to massage his back but he sprung straight up.
"Oh, well what do you know! My back is feeling much better!" He said, backing away from Celia. "Heh, heh."
"So I guess we can watch the sight together!" Celia said kind of giggling.
"Um…" But Celia already grabbed his hands and was going to pull him away but Zidane stopped himself from getting pulled any further.
"Wait! It won't be fair to just leave Missy here. Missy, you wanna come with me- I mean, us?" Zidane asked, hoping I would say yes. But before I even knew what to do, Seth came in from behind me.
"That's okay Zidane. I'll take Missy so you and Celia can be alone." Seth said, with a smirk on his face.
"That's okay, Missy can join us." Zidane said, trying to force a smile on.
"I don't mind really. I want to talk to Missy in private anyway." Seth said smiling.
"Come on, Ziddy! Let's go!" Celia said, grabbing onto Zidane's hand.
Ziddy? What kind of name is that? Zidane thought to himself.
Ziddy? Wow, she's already got a nick name for Zidane. She must really like Zidane. I mean, it's only obvious.
"Missy, can I talk to you alone?" Seth asked. Celia continued to tug on Zidane's hand but Zidane just stood there staring at me waiting for what I was going to say.
"Is it really important?" I asked before I answered him.
"It's about Sarah" he said with his head kind of down. I gave out a slight frown.
"Of course I will." I said still sad on what happened to Sarah. I then turned around so that my back was facing Zidane and Celia and walked beside Seth. Zidane then turned back around kind of mad and sad at the same time and started to walk the other way.
He must have been sad because he forgot he was holding Celia's hand. I turned my head back around to see Zidane holding Celia's hand. So I slowly turned my head around kind of mad but sad at the same time. I then wrapped my arms around Seth's arm, mad at what I just saw, taking Seth by surprise and continued to walk.
Zidane then turned his head back around to find me and Seth arm to arm. So he slowly turned his head back around really mad, and gripped his hand onto Celia's harder.
Seth and I then finally reached the end of the dock. I was leaning against the railing looking down at the ocean as we flew over it. I was still thinking of Zidane and Celia. I couldn't get it out of my head. I was so stupid to think Zidane had feelings for me. Celia actually deserves him, not me. She had the courage to show everyone that she likes Zidane. But I can't even hold his hand in public. I'm not embarrassed of Zidane at all…I'm actually embarrassed of myself.
"Missy?" Seth called my name out softly.
"Huh?" I said, turning my head to the side to find Seth's face so close to mine that we were only inches apart. He then leaned forward and kissed me softly on my lips. My eyes opened up in shock. I didn't know what to do. Should I pull back? Or just stay like this? Seth had his eyes closed. He then pressed his lips a little harder against my lips before pulling away. I just stood there still shocked. I didn't know what do say, or do. The only thing I was able to escape through my lips were…
"…Zidane…"
You know what to do, read and review!
…Hey, that rhymes!
