AUTHOR’S NOTE: I've decided to make my fic into an email ficcy.  For some reason I find this
way much more efficient, I don't know why though......  It will have a lot of
non-consensual sex, so it'll get worse for our hero before it gets better.
All disclaimers apply here.. but enjoy!!  ^_______^

 "Damn... that was a rough mission....." The spiky-haired Zell exclaims.
He helps his distinguished leader Squall Leonhart carry an injured young man
to Dr. Kadowaki's infirmary.  "You hold on Seifer...  You're gonna be
okay....."  Up until about three hours ago, Seifer Almasy was the
self-proclaimed Sorceress' Knight.  Now he is free of the witch's control.
Another young man stays behind the caravan as they enter the clinic.  He
watches as they place Seifer's shivering form on the table.  "(Oh,
Seifer....)," He whispers to himself, "(What has she done to you...?)"  A
small, lithe hand places itself on the troubled youth's shoulder.
 
 "Hey Irvine...  are you okay...?"  A girl in a yellow jumper asks.
 
 "Yeah, Selphie....  I'm just glad he's alive...." Irvine smiles and tips his
cowboy hat.  Irvine leaves the petite girl in the hall and goes in to look
after Seifer with the others.  He goes up to Squall and asks, "Um, Squall...?"
 
 "Yeah?"
 
 "Is it okay if I.. stay with Seifer tonight...?  Just to watch over him?"
 
 Squall gives Irvine a puzzled look.  "Are you sure, Irvine?  Seifer can
return to Edea's control at any time...."
 
 "For some reason I doubt it.....  Please Squall...."  Irvine removes his hat
and places it over his heart as he brushes some of Seifer's blonde hair from
his face.  Squall and Zell look at each other.  Forcing a smile, Squall
responds, "Okay Irvine... you take good care of Seifer."
 
 "Thank you."
 
 Irvine watches as Squall and Zell leave the infirmary.  He turns back around
and gently caresses Seifer's face with his fingertips.  Suddenly the young
knight's deep blue eyes flutter open.  He looks up at the face staring at
him....
 
 "Ir... Irvine...?"
 
 The cowboy smiles.  "Yeah.... I'm here, my love....," He whispers as he
gently kisses Seifer's warming lips.  Seifer then struggles to sit up while
he wraps his arms around Irvine's waist, pulling him on top.
 
 "How long has it been...?" Seifer whispers.  He gently buries his face into
Irvine's neck.
 
 "More than two years.....  I've missed you..."
 
 "I've missed you too.....  I want us to be together again...."
 
 "Yeah.... let's pick up where we left off...."
