Summary: With all his love.

Hey, Rin.

I guess I owe you an explanation for running off so quickly the last time we were hanging out. It was when Leonhart turned up, remember? I made some excuse, fuck, I don't even remember what I said, and bolted. I've made up with Squall now, you know, so it wasn't that.

Sorry. I'm just hoping that this letter won't ruin our friendship.

You see, there's this little thing... I hate seeing you and Leonhart together. You look so perfect. And you always look so happy. You hang onto his arm and sometimes he doesn't look too unhappy. He always looked unhappy, when we were training together. I guess that might've been my fault.

Anyway, I don't like spoiling your happiness by feeling really bitter. I really hate seeing you with him. See... what you have, I want that. A good relationship and all that. And... I would want the girl on my arm to be you.

Fuck, this sounds like a load of crap, even to myself.

You've got your hero, and well, in pretty much all ways, I wish I was him. So... that's why I ran off so quickly. It wasn't you, or Leonhart, it was just, well, the you and Leonhart thing.

I just wanted you to know. See you same time next week? Or, well, not... I'll understand if you don't turn up.

With all my love,
Seifer Almasy.
