The point of view changes almost every paragraph between Seifer and Squall. I've made it pretty easy to figure it out though. If the paragraph starts with the name Seifer then its Seifer's POV, if the paragraph starts with Squall's name then its Squall's POV. See, pretty easy ha?

Sometimes when I have that line thing to separate paragraphs no time may have passed at all. It could just be because I'm changing point of views. I'm sorry if it gets annoying when it happens quite a bit in the same area but *shrug* its just the way it works for me, sorry.

The disclaimer was in the first chapter and I think that's enough times I can handle saying it, lol. I've already shown the pairings and the rest you'll have to see for yourself. Or help me decide on!!!

There's no need for any warnings in this chapter since its pretty PG rated. But as I've said before, this is yaoi and there will be graphic scenes in it. Just not yet.

AND lastly, the lines that are crosses are paragraph changes…just in case you don't figure that out.

Anyway, happy reading!

Chapter 2: You got a problem…?

Squall narrowed his eyes. It was his first day back after two weeks, couldn't he go a day without having to put someone in their place?

“Are you talking to me?” the new guy asked. Irvine, Zell and the rest of Irvine's gang were staring at them, slightly interested in the outcome. Not many people challenged Squall Leonhart. And those who did never repeated the experience. (1)

“You know I was asshole! Watch where you're going!”

“Gee, calm down Princess, it was an accident”

Squall frowned at the nickname.

“Oh, I'm sure it was,” he retorted, sarcasm evident in his voice. “Just don't do it again!” His eyes were as cold as ice. It was the new guys turn to frown.

“Fuck, what's your problem?”

“My problem is you! Stay outta my way!” Squall said, wondering why he didn't just walk away or take a swing at the aggravating blonde. Either way the guy was really grinding into his nerves.

The blonde's smirk was back on his face as he looked intently at Squall.

“What's your name Princess?” he asked. Squall's free hand (the other holding his books) clenched into a fist angrily.

“Don't call me Princess!”

“Then tell me your name,” the blonde teen suggested. At this point Irvine stepped in and placed a hand on the new guys shoulder.

“Seifer,” Irvine said quietly. Squall assumed that was the guy's name.

“His name is Squall Leonhart,” Zell said, stepping forward. “And he's late for maths so I suggest you back off” (2)

Squall let Zell practically drag him down the hallway. He was so pissed off. Princess!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Seifer watched them until they rounded the corner.

“You made a bad enemy with that guy. If you wanted his name you should have asked someone else,” Irvine said, almost in warning. Seifer frowned.

“Why?”

“You haven't heard about the Squall Leonhart?” Irvine asked. Seifer thought about it and shrugged.

“No”

This time is was Dominic who answered, and not Irvine.

“He's not someone you wanna mess with. He may look small but he's damn strong. Be especially careful when he's around Zell. Zell Dincht is a natural martial artist. The only reason Zell isn't a black belt in every martial art is because he's not 18. Squall's also a mouthy bitch when he chooses to talk. And did you notice his clothes? He's Goth man. Or Emo: take your pic; we aren't sure which one he is. And he's rumoured to be a faggot. Trust me, just stay away from that kid. He's nothing but trouble”

Seifer looked down the empty hallway to where Squall had disappeared. Strong, protected, Goth or Emo and faggot? Strange little packet. Seifer was most definitely intrigued. Irvine shook his head and shoved Seifer to get him moving.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Squall sighed and sat on the brick fence directly in front of Quistis' BMW. Where the hell was Quistis? It was 4 o'clock. He would have expected Rinoa to be this late but Quistis? A honk of a car horn made him jump. He turned to see Zell on the empty road in his brand new silver convertible.

“Wanna ride?” Zell asked. Squall would have usually accepted but he wasn't in the mood from his hyperactive friend. So he shook his head. He was still fuming from that asshole Seifer from this morning. Thankfully he hadn't seen the blonde all day after that incident.

“No, Quistis should be here soon”

“All right. Seeya tomorrow!!! Booyah!!!” Zell yelled as he drove off in what Squall knew was way above the speed limit. That guy was a walking, driving disaster.

“Squall!” a voice called. He turned to see a flustered Quistis walk through the school double door entrance and towards him. He frowned as he saw Seifer walk out behind her.

“Sorry I'm late. There was an emergency council meeting called. I would have called but there was no time and I guess I just expected you to get a ride from Zell,” Quistis explained.

Squall said nothing and went to stand by the front passenger side door of the car. When it was obvious Seifer wasn't going anywhere Squall turned to him in frustration. What the hell was this guys problem???

“Oh sorry!” Quistis butted in before Squall could say anything. “You know Xu Almasy, friend of mine?”

Squall raised an eyebrow. How was that relevant to the current situation? Seifer smirked at him and he had to restrain himself from knocking the blonde on his ass.

“This is her younger brother”

Oh, Squall thought. So this was the brother that had recently come to live with Xu and their Mum after their Dad died two months ago. He crossed his arms, waiting, trying not to glare at the arrogant prick.

“She has a project she needs to work on in the art rooms. And then she's heading straight to work so I offered to give Seifer a lift home”

Oh.

Squall turned away from the car and began walking. There was no way he was sitting in a car with that asshole for half an hour. (3) He could hardly handle being around him for five minutes.

“Squall?” Quistis called out to him, confused.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Seifer's smirk grew a little more sadistic. Apparently the Princess could hold a grudge and didn't like him. But it wasn't his fault this was happening; it wasn't like he knew Quistis was Squall's sister. I mean the two of them couldn't be more different in appearance.

“Squall, you are not walking home! It will take you at least half an hour and you have to baby-sit Selphie remember? We're already going to be running late as it is,” Quistis said sternly as she unlocked the car.

Seifer watched Squall carefully, wondering what the feisty brunette would do.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Squall stopped. Damn, he had totally forgotten. With a resigned sigh and a scowl on his face Squall turned around and walked back to the car. He opened the front passenger door with more force then necessary and slammed it shut. Quistis gave a disapproving look as she closed her own door.

Seifer chuckled as he hopped in the back seat. Of course, that didn't exactly improve Squalls mood.

“Apparently you two have met?” Quistis asked as she pulled out of the parking lot.

Squall said nothing and looked out the window.

“Yeah we've met. Can't say it was a great first impression though, Princess here is holding a bit of a grudge. He doesn't talk much does he?”

Quistis laughed at the nickname but quickly turned it into a cough as Squall glared at her. Rolling his eyes Squall went back to looking out the window. There was no way in hell he was going to let that idiot goad him. All he had to do was look at the `great' scenery for 30 minutes and then it would be over and he would make sure Quistis never did anything so stupid again.

“No, Squall doesn't like talking. We thought it might have been a birth defect but no, its just Squall. He usually expresses himself with body language. He's actually pretty easy to read once you figure him out,” Quistis said conversationally. Squall's face tightened.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx

Seifer glanced at Squall.

“Is he really?” he asked. He really wanted to figure Squall out. Seifer loved a challenge and Squall was sure to be one. And he had a feeling it was worth the trouble to unlock Squall Leonhart.

“Yes, really. Wh-”

“Damn it, would you stop talking about me like I'm not here!” Squall busted out, turning to face them angrily, his eyes glaring daggers.

“Sorry,” Quistis said quietly and turned the radio on. Squall turned back to the window and was grateful for the stop in conversation. Seifer conceded and leaned back into his seat and closed his eyes, but not without a smirk gracing his features. As he slowly relaxed it slipped from his face, giving him a peaceful look.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx

At one point Squall - still fuming mad - looked into his rear-view mirror and stopped. Much as the guy was an asshole Squall had to admit he was hot. Especially completely unguarded like that, with his eyes closed, face relaxed. It made Squall wonder what he looked like sleeping. Scowling at the thought he turned slightly to look again at the boringly familiar scenery.

(1) In a lot of Seifer/Squall highschool fics they make Squall either timid and bullied or nasty and bullied and never thought of as a strong type of person. Just a `weak freak'. And if that works for their stories, then so be it. But I've decided that that's not how I want to portray Squall. I don't think, personally, that Squall would let anyone bully him without giving his two bits in return.

(2) I read one highschool one where Zell ran off as Squall was getting picked on and though this isn't really the same thing when I read it I thought, no fucking way, Zell wouldn't do that so yeah…I just wanted to make it clear that Zell has Squall's back because that's the kind of person I think that he is.

(3) Xu and Quistis have been friends for many many years and there's been more than one occasion when Squall has been to her house so yeah. I couldn't find somewhere to put it in the actual chapter…so I decided to just tell you here, lol.

Anyway, that's chapter 2. I know it took a while and I'm sorry about that. Just a lot of personal crap but everything is back on track now! : D Eagerly awaiting some feedback on my new chapter!!!
