Freaks you out, huh…? Squall mulled over her response. I thought he'd be here for a while, like us, like Seifer… I… I wanted him to be. He curled his hands into fists in his pockets, his brow furrowing as he scowled. I thought that maybe… Maybe it would work. It wasn't like we hung out all the time. But he was okay. And when he got shot-

He cut off that thought. Going down that road was dangerous.

"Yeah," he admitted shortly. He started to walk a little quicker, schooling his expression into its usual indifference. It was harder than he expected.

She says she's not going anywhere but how does she know? Laguna would have said the same thing. So what if next time, it's her? …What if it's Seifer? This… this is why…

He swallowed, fighting the urge to tell Selphie to take it back. It was like she promised and promises didn't mean anything here. Like… Rinoa? Damn it! He came to a halt and stared at the ground, his shoulders hunching over. He clenched his fists tighter. I'm not going to think about this. Keep walking. But he couldn't. He felt like losing his temper but he was angry with the intangible-with unseen forces, things no one had any control over, least of all him.

Again, Selphie stumbled slightly when Squall began to walk faster. She was still worried, and his one worded reply didn't help soothe her concerns. Spinning around and regaining her balance, Selphie stopped dead in her tracks.

Uh oh. Definitely not a good sign.

"Hey hey hey," Selphie said, standing next to Squall and peering up at him. Darn it, these were one of those moments when you were supposed to hug the other person. "You okay? Squall?"

Probably a stupid question given his posture, but she didn't know what to do.
