Chapter eight

Seifer cleared his throat, straightening his bow tie. It took him just over an hour to get dressed properly, and it had taken him several days to get the reservations he needed. He had planned to take Quistis to the new five-star restaurant that had just opened in Balamb. It was pretty expensive, but he felt Quistis deserved it after all that she had done for him.

It had been about a week since they had actually decided to consider themselves a couple, and things were moving extremely fast. Partly from the fact they already knew each other so well.

She should be arriving any minute. She was told she would have to work late, and so a nice surprise from Seifer would probably lift the stress. Seifer heard the door open, and he knew that was his cue. Quickly stepping out of the bathroom, he saw Quistis walking into the kitchen. He silently walked into the kitchen, sneaking up on her, as she stood in front of the sink. He greeted her by wrapping his arms around her waist and kissing her on the neck playfully. She was startled at first, but then smiled and started to squirm.

"Stop! That tickles!" Seifer stopped, and Quistis turned around, still in his arms. Quistis returned the show of affection, greeting him with a deep kiss. After a few seconds, she pulled back; looking at what Seifer was wearing.

"So… Why are you all dressed up?" She inquired.

"Well, I knew you had to work late, and I figured you'd be pretty stressed…" Seifer started, "So I decided to take you to that new place in Balamb."

Quistis' eyes lit up, and she smiled wildly. "I love you." She said, resting her head on his chest.

"Haha, I know." Seifer replied with a smirk. "Now go get dressed, we don't want to get there too late.

"Okay." Quistis squealed as she ran off into the bathroom.

Seifer took a seat by the table. Closing his eyes, he smiled to himself. 'Your doing well Almasy, don't screw this up.' He thought to himself.

About fifteen minutes later, Quistis came out, clothed in a long satin blue dress, her hair up in a bun, and expensive looking earrings.

Seifer was glad he was sitting down when he saw her for the first time, as he nearly passed out.

"Well, how do I look?" Quistis asked.

"I… I…" Seifer was speechless.

"That bad?" Quistis frowned.

Seifer found his voice again, and jumped up from his seat, taking a few steps closer to her. "You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen." He commented.

"You're so sweet." She replied, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"Well, let's get going." Seifer said as Quistis released him from her embrace, and the two walked hand in hand out of the dorm.

As they walked into the parking lot, Quistis gasped again, seeing the limousine pulling in.

"Is that for us?" She asked.

"Of course." Seifer grinned.

He opened the door for her, and she carefully got in, making sure not to mess up her dress. Seifer walked around and got in the other side. "Driver, we're ready." Seifer said to the man in the driver seat.

"Yeah, whatever." The man replied in an annoyed tone.

"What's wrong with you?" Seifer raised an eyebrow as the limousine started to move.

"A more suited question would be "What's not wrong with me."" The driver replied. "But, to answer your question… My wife left me, I'm barely getting paid, I have to sit and watch you two fondle each other through the entire trip, and I can't afford to buy anymore pot."

"You smoke pot?" Quistis' asked.

"For medicinal purposes." The driver replied.

"What purposes?" Seifer asked, genuinely curious.

"I hate my life." The driver said. At this Seifer and Quistis shook their heads.

'Wait… I know that voice.' Seifer thought. He examined the driver's voice, only to find that it was Biggs… As in MAJOR BIGGS… Of the Galbadian army…

"Biggs?" Seifer yelled.

"Almasy?"

"HOLY SH-" Seifer didn't get to finish his sentence before Biggs slammed on the breaks. Biggs and Quistis were both wearing seat belts, but Seifer wasn't. Seifer was jerked forward violently, and hit his head on the thing that separated the front of the limo from the back. Luckily, he wasn't seriously hurt.

"OW!" Seifer yelled. "That REALLY hurt!"

"Get out of my limo!" Biggs yelled.

Within about thirty seconds, the limo was zooming off, with Seifer and Quistis standing on the sidewalk in the pouring rain.

"This sucks." Seifer stated bluntly.

Fortunately they were already in Balamb, and within looking range of the restaurant.

"Come on, we have to get out of the rain!" Quistis yelled. The couple rushed into the restaurant, and shook off the rain.

"Well, glad that's over." Seifer commented.
