Chapter Two
Squall sat at the table in Edea’s small kitchen while she made some tea before she started her talk. With a frown he took in the dull quarters, it made a hospital look like the fanciest hotel in Esther. Cid’s taste no doubt.
‘Why the hell am I doing this?’ Squall thought and nodded thanks as she handed him the hot beverage. It smelled of lavender and clover honey. Very high end, expensive and most likely imported from somewhere else because there was no way in hell Balamb sold that kind of thing. Squall quickly snapped out of his inner thoughts and focused on her and what she was about to tell him…even if he didn’t want to hear it.
“Okay Squall I know you won’t say anything, but for my peace of mind I need you to promise you won’t.” She said and he raised an eyebrow at her.
“I promise I won’t say a word to anyone.” He said and she gave a nod.
“Well it’s jut that Cid…has lost interest in me.” She began.
“He talks to you.” Squall said and she snorted.
“No Squall, I mean he’s lost interest in me sexually.” Edea stated and now Squall turned into a blushing man, his face turning a fiery color.
“Uh…ok.” He said and started to nearly gulp the scolding liquid.
“I just don’t know what to do anymore. At first the sex stopped, he complained he was too busy with being the Headmaster.” She said, not paying attention to the large blue eyes across from her or the red faced they belonged to. “Then after the war he stopped hugging me, kissing me, hell even holding my hands.”
Squall swore he felt a cramp building up his leg, god forbid he started those like his overly hyper father. He softly stomped his foot to get rid of the sensation and continued to look up with an almost pained expression.
“Now he doesn’t have an excuse, he just says he’s not interested in sex anymore.” She sighed and noticed his pinched face. “Squall are you alright?”
Nodding his head Squall drank the rest of his tea before talking. “Do you think he’s having an affair?” He asked and felt like slapping himself for saying such a thing, but heard her scoff.
“I doubt it. I mean I love him, but I’m sure no one else would want him.” She said.
‘Ouch.’ Squall thought with a wince. “Well maybe…try Viagra?” She looked at him for a minute and he just wanted to leave and pretend he never sat here, talking to Matron about her sex life. ‘Besides Cid was too old for her, she needs someone younger and not a plain lazy dumb ass. I mean really, who the hell leaves a 17 year old in charge of a fucking military school!?’
“Squall you look angry.” She stated and he snapped out of his inner bitch mode.
“Well try the Viagra and if that doesn’t work tie him up and just rape his old ass.” Squall blurted and both their eyes widened to saucers. “Uh. Sorry about that.” He apologized and noticed she was laughing.
“Oh Hyne Squall! That was the funnies thing I’ve heard in a long time!” She chortled and Squall cracked a smile. “You should smile more often, it makes you look more handsome than you already do.” She said then hid her blushing face.
Squall gave a cough and looked down into his empty tea cup. ‘She said I’m handsome? What a strange thing to say unless…NO! She’s not like that, you shouldn’t be even thinking of it you sick little Grat you.’ He thought and glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. She was still beautiful even if she was pushing 50 now, but barely looked it, looking as if she was still in her 30’s at least.
“So…” They began at the same time.
“Try what I said and if that doesn’t work I guess go to a marriage counselor. If he even doesn’t want to do that, then maybe a divorce.” He said and she nodded.
“Matron I have a question.” Squall suddenly said. “Why is he still living here? I thought you two were going back to Centra?” He asked, the thought had been gnawing at him for some time now.
“I honestly don’t know. He just changed his mind. I guess he would miss this place too much.” She said and this time Squall snorted.
“More like the teen girls skipping around in short skirts.” Again blue eyes bulged out. “Damn it. I’m sorry, I don’t know why I keep saying these things today.” He said and Edea gave a thoughtful look.
“Don’t apologize, I wouldn’t be surprised.” She gave a sad sigh and Squall mentally groaned. “Matron, don’t put what I said to heart. I’m just being an asshole.” He said.
“Squall.” Edea said and cupped his face in her palms. Squall tensed up and wasn’t sure what to do. “Squall you are not an…asshole. You’re blunt and even if it hurts a little I know deep down you’re probably right.” She said and put a finger to his lips when he was about to speak.
“Don’t worry about it. She said and stood up, walking to the door. Squall followed, stunned, confused and a little aroused all at once. Edea opened the door which he walked out and she have him a hug. “Thanks for listening.” She said and gave him a light kiss on the lips.
Squall jumped back as the door shut fast and walked away red faced, large eyes and looking perplexed. Once he got to his room he stopped halfway in the living room.
“What the fuck just happened?”

I know they are a little OOC, but I’m finding this comical.
