Irvine’s POV
By the time I finally got Rinoa to calm down Selphie was asleep on the couch and it was light out side. I feel like stomach acid is burning holes through my insides. And now is when Zell decides to walk through the door. He freezes when he sees me, both Rinoa and Selphie passed out in my lap. His eye’s are wide as a deer’s in headlights, and right now, I figure he’s just about as safe.
“Where ya been Zell?” His mouth opened and closed nervously, like a fish. His hair is dripping all over the place. “Did you just take a shower?”
“Yeah. What… What’s Rinoa doing here?” He asked, too nervous to bounce.
“When Rinoa got in Selphie brought her here.”
“Why?”
“Couldn’t find Squall, why else?”
“Oh”
“Where were you?”
“Well… you... I brought you home and… it got… weird.” He’s bouncing back and forth now; he looks like he’s going to have a heart attack.
“Calm down, baby, I’m not gonna bite.” His eyes get wider, if that’s even possible, and be seems even more nervous.
“I… uh went to the training center and ran into Squall.”
“Oh… how was he?” I ask, inspecting his clothes and noticing the splatters of green and red blood, along with streaks of dirt. He’s shrinking under my gaze. What the hell’s his problem?
“He was… not so good. He didn’t say anything. He just fell asleep on me.” Fell asleep on you? What the hell does that mean? Why are you so nervous?
“Oh.”
“Yeah… so… how about we get Rinoa Outta here.”
“Yeah. Take her to Squall’s okay?”
“Yeah.” He walks around me, over to Rinoa on my left, and shakes her lightly.
“Daddy?” She mumbles softly. My stomach just lurched, again.
“No, Rinoa, it’s me, Zell. How about I take you over to Squall’s place?”
“Squally not here.” She says sleepily, clutching the honey yellow blanket that I pulled over her while she was sleeping.
“Squall’s back now. He was just getting some work done. He’s back now.” Zell says softly, running his hand over the tattoo and though his hair, spiking it up again.
“Really?” She says, perking up.
“Yeah.” He says reaching his hand out to her.
“Kay. Take me to my Knight.” She says sleepily, following him out the door. I lay Selphie down on the couch and cover her with blankets, and then I go to the bathroom to vomit. Fuck, next time I won’t open the door.
