A/N: Hiya! I am sooo happy with all the reviews I've received! I love it when you guys review! I'm so into this fanfic. I have placed my other one "Moonlight and Cherryblossoms" (my Tenchi Muyo one) aside for a while. ^_^ I love Selvine! Sometimes, I think I obsessed, but what can I say, I'm just a huge fan.

Oh, guess what (it's not like anyone here cares about my personal life, but oh well)! I've beat my game today (7/28/02). I was so happy, I danced around my room like an idiot. And guess what else! I didn't defeat Ultimecia with Squall, it was with Irvine, and I didn't get game over. Irvine beat her, not Squall MUHAHAHA! That stupid Griever/Ultimecia thing took Selphie out of the battle, I was too slow to revive her, but in any case, I beat Ultimecia! If you haven't beat the game yet, the ending is soooo funny! I loved it! Anyway, I guess I'm done.

Chapter Three "Plans for a Party."


The cafeteria was as busy as it always was in the afternoon. Students rushed as fast as they could so they were able to get some hot-dogs. Zell, of course, made sure he was first to get hot-dogs. Rinoa and Selphie sat across from each other talking. Irvine waved to every pretty girl he saw walk by, the usual. Quistis was reading a book, and lecturing Zell about eating properly. Seifer was, well, being Seifer.

A junior class man was running to the lunch line. Seifer acknowledge him running, and stuck his foot out. The junior class man trip and fell face first on the floor.

"No running!" Seifer laughed at the student.

"Seifer!!" Quistis stood up and help the student to his feet.

The student thank Quistis, and this time walked towards the line.

"Seifer, that was rude." Rinoa frowned.

"He was running, and you know there isn't any running allowed in the cafeteria. Just doing my job." Seifer grinned and cracked his knuckles.

"Well, you could have at least apologized." Selphie added.

"What do you expected from the loser? Him apologize? As if." Zell crammed a hot-dog in his mouth.

"Shut the hell up, chicken-wuss!" Seifer yelled.

Quistis kicked his leg under the table, "What have I told you about cursing?"

"Sorry Quisty." Seifer put on his puppy dog face.

Zell snorted, and at the same time, started choking on his hot-dog.

"Aaaaacccckkkk!" Zell's face turned blue.

"Uh, I think Zell's choking." Irvine started hitting Zell's back.

"Not that hard! You'll kill 'em" Rinoa ran over to Zell.

Zell, who was purple now, started hitting his chest.

"Here have some water!" Selphie poured water down his throat.

Zell swallowed the hot-dog that was stuck in his throat. Everyone sighed in relieve when he began to change back to his original color.

"I told you not to eat so fast." Quistis boasted.

"Well, I didn't know I was gonna chock on the hot-dog!" Zell argued.

Seifer snickered, "Well, if you would have listen to Quisty, this wouldn't have happened, and you could have saved yourself the embarrassment."

"Why I outta-" Zell stood up.

"Enough you two!" Quistis snapped.

The two boys settled down at her command. Just then, Squall walked into the cafeteria.

"Squall!" Rinoa ran over to her boyfriend and gave him a big hug.

"Hey Rinoa." Squall hugged her back, and took a seat next to her.

"What's up, buddy." Zell greeted.

"Well, I have some bad news. Quistis and I were assigned to a SeeD mission." Squall said.

Rinoa looked down, "How long?"

"Only for a few days. We're supposed to go to Deiling City and help someone there."

"Squall, you better not touch my woman during the trip! Or else!" Seifer threatened.

"Please, Seifer, it's obvious that Squall wouldn't do that. He's dating Rinoa, remember?" Quistis put her book down.

"Yeah, but who could resist you, sweetie pie." Seifer smiled.

Zell snorted, "Sweetie pie."

Seifer gave Zell and evil glare.

"When are you leaving?" Rinoa tried to get some tension out of the air.

"Early tomorrow morning," Squall stood up, "I gotta go now, remember to meet me by the front gate tomorrow Quistis."

"All right then."

Everyone waved good-bye to Squall.

"This is great. Now I have to finish these papers tonight. I gotta go guys, I'll see you later," Quistis stood up and grabbed Seifer's hand, "you can help me grade these papers."

"Ah, but I don't want too." Seifer squirmed and tried to get away, but proved useless.

The two left the cafeteria.

"Poor Quisty, she's always busy." Rinoa frowned.

"Yeah, that's sad, she can't even get out and enjoy herself," an idea sparked in Selphie's head, "hey! Why don't we all go out tonight, before they go on their mission tomorrow?"

"Hey Sefie, that's a great idea!" Irvine smiled.

"Yeah, but remember, they have to get up early tomorrow." Rinoa added.

"Don't worry, we'll make sure we leave early." Zell added.

"Ok, so where are we gonna go?" Irvine asked.

"Well, I heard of this new place that opened in Balamb. Maybe we could go there. They have lots of karaoke!" Selphie suggested.

"Ahh, I'm not much of the singing type." Zell added.

"We could just go there and enjoy ourselves. We don't have to sing." Rinoa commented.

"All right then! So who's gonna ask them?" Selphie asked.

Everyone was silent.

"I could ask Squall, cause he is my boyfriend, and I know how to convince him." Rinoa broke the silence.

"What about Quistis?" Irvine asked.

Everyone turns and looks at Zell.

"What? Wait, you want me to ask her?" Zell pointed at himself.

Everyone nodded.

"All right then, but she'll probably say 'no.' And if she goes, Seifer is gonna go too." Zell crossed his arms.

"It's worth a shot, you know," Rinoa stood up, "I'll go ask Squall now."

"Tch, I'll go ask Quistis now, I guess." Zell and Rinoa left the cafeteria.

"Well, looks like it's just me and you left." Irvine leaned back in his chair.

Selphie blushed, "Yeah, I guess so."

"What's wrong?" Irvine asked.

"Oh no, what am I gonna say. Um, um, er, ah think Selphie! Oh come on, you never get this nervous around people, especially him." Selphie thought to herself.

"Uh, Sefie?"

"Nice weather we are having, huh?" Selphie said cheerfully.

Irvine blinked, "Yeah, it is."

"Ahh! Oh my Hyne Selphie! That was so stupid. Make an idiot out of yourself why don't you. I have to think of something else to say." Selphie scolded herself in her thoughts.

"Sefie, are you ok? You're kinda red." Irvine asked.

"Uh, yeah I'm fine." Selphie tried to cover her face up.

Irvine chuckled, "Oh I see."

"See what?" Selphie said nervously, afraid that he found out that she likes him.

"Someone put too much blush on this morning." Irvine teased.

Selphie face-faulted, "Ack! Y-yeah, that's it."

Selphie closed her eyes, "I have to talk to him, I just have to."

Irvine looked up at the ceiling, "You know, you don't have to wear make-up. You're pretty without it."

At that comment, Selphie turned a brighter red.

"Thank you, Irvy." Selphie smiled. She was now lighten up.

"So like, I'm so glad you thought about going out tonight. It's gonna be so fun with all of us 'orphanage gang' and Rinoa." Irvine added.

"I just hope Quistis and Squall decide to come. It won't be much fun without them, especially if we are doing this for them." Selphie placed her head in her hands.

"Yeah, really, but hopefully they will."

"I wondering how Rinoa and Zell are doing." Selphie pondered.

"Rinoa, she's probably doing good, but Zell, I don't know." Irvine laughed.

Selphie smiled, "I really enjoy being with you, Irvy."

"Same here, you're really fun to be around." Irvine replied.

"Oh come on, why not?" Rinoa pouted.

"Rin, I told you about the SeeD mission. I can't stay out too late." Squall said to the disappointed Rinoa.

"I told you that we wouldn't stay out too late. And it's gonna be fun." Rinoa pleaded for him to go.

"Rinoa..."

"And, we need to spend more time together. Ever since we defeated Ultimecia, you've been too busy with this commander stuff."

"What time are you coming back?" Squall asked.

"Whatever time you want to come back." Rinoa responded.

"All right then, I'll go." Squall replied.

"Yay! Thank you!" Rinoa ran over to him and hugged his neck.

*Knock knock knock*

"Come in." Quistis said from her desk.

"Hey Quisty." Zell waved.

"Oh, Zell hi. What brings you here?" Quistis put down her pen.

Zell looked around the room, "Where's Seifer?"

"Oh, he was having a fit about grading papers, so he ran off." Quistis sighed.

"Figures. I came to ask you if you wanted to go out with me and the others tonight." Zell crossed his fingers, and hoped that she would say 'yes'.

"I would love too, but I'm not done with these papers, and I have that mission tomorrow, but thanks for asking."

"No, you have to come. You have to lighten up a little bit. You are always so serious, and so busy, we want you to go out and enjoy yourself." Zell walked over and took the papers.

"Hey!" Quisitis tried to grab them back.

"I'll eat 'em if you don't come." Zell threatened.

"Zell, give them back now!" Quistis reached out for them, but missed.

Zell took a bite out of one's edges.

"I think my stomach's growling, better eat the whole thing." Zell grinned.

"All right all right! I'll go, just don't eat those papers." Quistis sighed.

"Really?! You'll go?" Zell said shocked at her decision.

"Yes, I'll go." Quistis frowned, "What time?"

"We'll come get you when were ready," Zell threw the papers down and ran out of the room, "oh, and tell Seifer that he's welcome to come too."

Quistis picked up the papers, "Better finish these now."
