Chapter 2: Confusion Abounds

Getting in the shower, he turned on the hot water and let it course over him. He’d learned awhile ago that having a wet shower was better then a cold one. Squall's hands were on him. Pumping him. He could feel Squall's erection on his back. Suddenly, her face appeared as well. She stood in front of him. He pressed her up against the wall and entered her. He felt Squall behind him, pressing to gain entrance. Three joined and he heard her gasp in pleasure. Squall started to pull out and Zell went with him, pulling out of Minuet’s silken folds. He was then pushed back in, when Squall slammed in to him again, and again. It was the most amazing thing to feel. He was so close. He heard her cry out as she orgasmed. He felt Squall explode into him. He was almost there.

Zell awoke with a start. The dream he’d been having took a startling turn. He could tell his body was tense... hell... he was ready to pop. Getting up, he headed to the bathroom. He was used to dreams leaving him hard. But they always revolved around Squall... for the last week, since she’d arrived, they’d started with Squall, but ended with her... and Squall. Before the water had even hit him, he started reliving the dream and pumping himself. His hand couldn’t do the same wonders to him that she could but it was the best he could do. He kept seeing her writhe in front of him. He could almost feel Squall slam him from behind. It didn’t take much for him to reach his peak and explode on the bathroom wall. After taking a few moments to regain his strength, he cleaned up and washed off the wall. Getting out, he wrapped a towel around his waist and headed to the bedroom to get dressed. As he stepped out of the bathroom, he found one of dream partners standing before him.

“Squall!! What are you doing here?” he said.

“I came to see who you're doing? I mean, HOW you're doing? How...” Squall said, a small blush creeping up his neck. It seemed like talking had become a challenge. He couldn’t seem to talk to Zell without thinking of what he’d seen. Luckily for him, Zell wasn’t really listening but trying to find some clean clothes.

“I’m fine. Doc said I can get back to work today. Seen Minuet yet?” he asked, trying to get dressed with the towel still on.

“She was sleeping when I stopped by.” Seeing his love trying to get dressed and failing, he yearned to reach out and help him. Instead he turned towards the door, “I’ll wait in the living room.”

Zell hurried to get dressed and headed out to see Squall.

“I’d like to check in on her before grabbing some food. Maybe even invite her to eat us, I mean, with us. If you don’t mind that is.”

Squall, who hadn’t heard Zell’s mix up, instead felt a small twinge of sadness at hearing the worry in Zells voice, followed by guilt at the dream he’d had just last night. “It’s no problem. If you'er all ready, let's go.”


The two headed out towards the medical ward. When they arrived, the nurses station was empty and they headed towards her room. Opening the door, they saw an empty bed.

“Where is she?” Zell asked

“She was here not thirty minutes ago. I swear.”

The door to the bathroom opened and a freshly cleaned Minuet stepped out. Her hair glistened from the water and sent droplets down her shoulders. It took a few moments for it to sink in that she was wearing only a towel. The two youths turned red and spun around, both apologizing for barging in. She was also bright red and looked to see where her clothes were. There...on the bed. Walking over to grab them, she slipped on the water pooling at her feet. Hearing her small cry, Squall turned and caught her, holding her while she steadied herself. Zell, having also heard her, turned and saw the catch. He looks away and sees the clothes on her bed. Picking them up, he walks over to hand them to her. Squall has let go, having only held her for a few moments, he looks away. Her body's feel against his etched in his mind.

Blushing, she took the clothes and headed back to the bathroom to change. Silence filled the room. Zell could only see Squall holding her close and wondered if he likes her. Squall is also wondering how Zell feels about her, remembering how he was holding her close on the drive home.

Minuet leaned on the door, wondering why she felt this way. It was so strange. She’s never had dreams like those before... never woken up so... so... frustrated. It was so unlike her. She’d been guarded from anything sexual for so long. Now, not only was she desiring sex but with two men at that. Her hand ran down her body as she remembered the dream. She had never felt more alive. Their hands had been every where. They had kissed her, touched her, taken her... and each other. Her body trembled at the memory. She quickly thrust the thoughts from her mind. They wanted each other, not her. She had seen that the moment Squall had appeared. She wasn’t about to step between them. Getting dressed, she walked out and saw them starring at each other, without seeming to notice that they were. The door squeaked shut and there gaze’s turned to her. She smiled at them and thanked Zell for getting her clothes and Squall for catching her. Squall’s face reddened at the memory, while Zell wished it had been the other way around. They invited her to join them for breakfast.

As the three walked into the dinning hall, the intercom sounded.

“Commander Squall, please report to the main office. Commander Squall, to the main office. Thank You.”

Squall started to turn away, stopped, looked at Minuet, and said, “Maybe we can have lunch together,” before running off.

The two continued on, ordered their food, and found a place to sit while Zell asked Minuet about herself.

“Well, I was raised in an orphanage not far from here. A few years ago, a passing sorceress asked if she could test each of the girls to see if they had any potential. She said that I did and read my future. I have no idea what was in it but she didn’t seem to like it. She told Maria, the house mother, that what she saw was reprehensible. Since then, I wasn’t allowed off the property or to be alone with certain people. A few weeks ago, Maria died of old age. To the best of my knowledge, she never told anyone about the vision. When the new house mother came, she told me that eighteen was too old and that I had two weeks to leave.”

“She just kicked you out?” Zell said, surprised.

“Kinda. She gave me directions on how to get to Balamb, told me who to talk to about a job, and sent me on my way. I had gotten lost, and was wandering around the forest, when those guys found me. They started yelling at me and I just ran. I don’t know what would have happened if you hadn’t shown up.”

“Hey, told you, I’m just a knight in shining armor. Although, I don’t think it ended very well. And Squall did do a lot of the saving, what with attacking them and...” Zell frowned down at his tray.

“Zell? You ok?” Minuet asked, “Zell?”

“I just realized. I really didn’t do anything.”

“But you did. They stopped coming after me.” Minuet turned Zell to her, and looked into his eyes. “You saved me by holding me close when we fell in to the ocean.”

“But I was knocked out? We could have drowned.”

Minuet leaned in, her face inches away from Zells. “You are a hero. You did save me. I might be dead right now, if not for you.”

The dining hall had long since emptied and they were the only ones around. As Zell looked in to her eyes, he leaned down and kissed her. This kiss was different from the first one. He pulled her close and wrapped his arms around her. She leaned in, and put her arms around his neck running her fingers through his spiky blonde hair. Suddenly saw Squall’s face flashed in front of her eyes. She pulled away quickly, her face filled with pain, got up, and ran from the room. Zell sat there stunned for a few minutes before jumping up, and running after her.


Minuet ran down the hall. As she went, she raced past the offices and right past Squall. When he stepped out in to the hall to call after her, someone ran into him, knocking both of them to the floor.

“Squall!! Sorry, did Minuet run by here?”

Squall got up and helped Zell up. “Yeah. What happened?”

Zell blushed and looked down at the ground. “Um... We were talking, and... guess I touched on a bad subject. She jumped up, and ran.”

Squall new his friend was lying and it hurt deeply that he felt the need to. It also hurt to think of what had really happened to make him lie.

“Hey Squall, why don’t you go after her? She seems calmer when she’s with you. I don’t know what I did wrong but she might not want to see me right now. Besides, I’ve got a class to teach.”

Squall looked over at the blonde and felt his heart go out to him. He reached out his hand toward Zell's face, who stared back. Irvine came barreling down the hall, late for his own class to teach, killing the mood.

Squall turned away and blushed. “Sure Zell. I’ll go find her. Um... See you later.”

“Yeah... If you can, bring her to lunch.” Zell said, running towards the training room.

Squall stared after him for a few minutes before heading the opposite way and after Minuet.
