Chapter 12 -pasts-

“Sephy, wake up! Wake up, its just a dream, wake up!” He said shaking the young woman beside him.

Breathing heavily the lady sat up sweat on her forehead, as she turned her gaze to Seifer. Immediately he pulled her to him, cuddling her close. “Shh…. It is alright…”

A half hour passed. “Thank, *sniffle* you.” She said resting her head on his chest.

“Sephy?”
"Yeah?”

“What err, were you dreaming about?” Gunblading man asked pressing is rough lips to her forehead.

“……My…past.. It’s a long story.. I only remember it vaguely.” Commented leviathan woman.

“I will listen.” Seifer commented and took a breath. “If you want to tell me… you don’t have too.”

Closing her eyes. “All I remember was, I woke up and came downstairs from the attic or something, when I walked into my parents room he was injecting some kind of drug into her.. Not to long after that he stabbed her with a dagger, over and over again….” Selphie said now crying like Sirens ocean as she hit the pillow as if practicing Ifrit’s summon. “He told me, I was alone.. And he would get me too someday.. I remember some lady, after that my body passed out I think, when my eyes opened I was at the orphanage.. I was only 3...” Ms. Tilmitt explained as she sobbed into Seifer’s muscular chest.

Rubbing her back he parted his rough lips. “On my 3rd or 4th birthday both my parents died, my father was a drunk, my mother was “out in space, like Eden.” Lets just say, there was a fight, a goldfish, you see she was ‘crazy’ and tried defending her self with a goldfish bowl… My father shot her with a 35mm handgun when she fell the goldfish bowl was thrown up and hit the electrical equipment, somehow he was electrocuted and died…” Holding back his tears he kissed her forehead. “But that was a long time ago..”

“I’m sorry..”

“Don’t be, if that had not have happened, I would have never met you. That would be the worst mistake of all.”

Selphie looked up at him and kissed him passionately pushing him softly back onto the bed.

(“OH, no, this is not right.. She isn’t ready yet… damn, how much I want to though..”) “Sephy, no, your not ready yet.”

Closing her eyes and opening them she nodded and kissed him softly as she laid beside him. “Thanks. You’re the best, Seify. I love you, with all my heart.” The young distraught woman said as she glanced at her stomach. “Even though the baby is not yours.. I hope the baby will be just like you.”

Smiling as he placed a and on her stomach. “I love you too.”

As the young women once again fell asleep, Seifer laid stroking her soft brunette head, watching every breath she took, the soft smile on her lips informed him that she was having a peaceful dream…
