Threesome: Seifer Almasy x Squall Leonhart x Zell Dincht
Fandom: Final Fantasy VIII
Theme: #28 Arcana
Disclaimer: Seifer, Squall and Zell all belong to Squeenix, and not the squeeing fangirls. D'oh.
Notes: The fics I write for this community are all connected in an arc. I'll be writing them in order. As for how I interpret the themes, I've used
this page about tarot card meanings to pick key words/phrases to base my fics on.
They didn't know. They couldn't know, really. But they were hurting me. I didn't show it, of course not -- Squall needed stability and support and all that shit. He didn't need to know that I wanted him and his lover. He didn't need to know that I dreamed of being with them at night and daydreamed about them during the day. Seifer didn't notice that my flirting was sincere, Squall didn't notice my flirting.
And that was fine with me, then. I was ready to keep my secret, because I needed to. So that part of my life, those dreams, would be kept closed in on themselves and locked away -- so what? It was for the best.
But no one will ever have any idea of how hard that resolution made life for me. How much I always longed to kiss Seifer or run my fingers through Seifer's hair. And it hurt when they kissed -- or rather, when Seifer grabbed Squall and forced a kiss on him that he eventually responded to.
It hurt that Squall would respond.
It hurt like hell.
