Chapter Seven

A Rockin' Week in Winhill

From the transport to the outskirts of Winhill was quite a hike. Especially since I couldn't shut up. I must've blabbed 200 stories about everyone in Balamb, the orphanage, and Garden by the time the first farm came into sight. Sally never complained. She laughed and giggled and "oh'd and "wow"d at all the right times. As usual, she made me feel like I outranked the President.

Any idea how girls do that, guys? Anyone?

So, the two of us headed into the main part of town. Stories came slower as I watched our surroundings and kept my tread light and ready. Sally hadn't had the chance to get my level of experience, magic, or junctioning GFs. We hadn't had a chance to share, either. To be honest, I didn't want her to have the experience.

You know what I mean?

Of course, both of us could kick butt without the help. And the critters around Winhill were nothing like the things in Ultimecia's castle, that was for damn sure. The only thing I worried about were the things I didn't know about. The people that Seifer worried about. The people that made Zack and Quis need to go under cover.

The people that made Sally and I come here in the first place.

I stepped closer to Sally as we passed through the farms on the outskirts of Winhill toward town. I pointed out the chocobo crossing, told a funny story, and then made sure she caught sight of the chocobo running in a far field. It made her face glow with a smile that burned me clear through.

Guys, are we this easy to impress all the time?

"So where do we set up the interviews? Or do you have to go door-to-door?"

"Yes," Sally told me with a smile.

I chuckled. "Both, huh. Go door-to-door to give interview appointment times?"

She nodded. "We can set up today, get settled, pass out the appointment times tomorrow, have the afternoon and evening to ourselves, interview day after, and then head home."

I halted, staring down at her in shock. Then I grinned. I couldn't help it. "You've got it all planned out, huh?"

She flushed and slightly nodded, lowering her head and eyes. "Guilty."

"How 'bout we stow our gear at wherever we're staying, I pass out the appointment times, and you set up. Then, we get the interviews down and the rest of--"

"We can't, Zell."

My smile vanished. "How come?"

"I have to go back to Garden as soon as the interviews are done."

"Ohhh. Gotcha." I grinned again as I wrapped an arm around her shoulders and led her again toward Winhill. "Okay, we'll do it your way."

Didn't I say she was smart?

She giggled and wrapped an arm around my waist. The best rush on the planet. 'cept kissing her, of course. Dude. Sally is a rush! And I still remembered the freakin' volcano when she'd kissed me the first time on the way to Balamb. What a head rush! I thought my brain would explode, and I'd never had that happen to me before.
