Crimson Storm

Chapter 1

"Daddy can I go outside and play?" An eight year old girl asked looking outside from her open window.

"No. You are a girl, which is only good for housework and having children. Playing outside is a boys thing, not a girls." Her father responded with a glare.

Cloud nodded and went inside her room. She closed the door and sat on her window bench, her back facing it. She sighed and thinking what she did to deserve something like this. All she wants is to play outside. She didn't hear the window open for she was to focused on thinking. Until a pair of strong, yet weak arms wrapped themselves around her small frame. She looked up to see her childhood friend. She smiled and leaned into the hug, she really needed it right now. Everytime she saw her friend, Zack, she would feel this happiness that her father doesn't give her.

"Hey, wierdo. Why did you came from the window?" Cloud asked rolling her eyes.

"So weird is the new thing going on the block. Besides going through the doors is for losers." Zack shrugged with his boyish smile looking at her. He had his legs on each side of her and leaned forward putting his chin on her shoulder. He smiled liking this position a little better, this is how it should be. Cloud looked up at Zack, eyes staring for a while. She smiled, ever since she met Zack, she always wore a smile on her face. He is her happiness.

Cloud got out of his hold and walked up to the dresser, she grabbed her mother's picture. An exact replica of herself, only her mother's hair ended in waves and hers was straight. Her sapphire eyes looked sad, so Zack went behind her and hugged her staying like that for a while longer. It was a comfortable silence, no one talked for a while. Until her father shouted for her to start on dinner. Cloud sighed and went to walk throught the door, she turned to look at Zack.

"I'll see you tomorrow. I knew I should have come earlier. Bye." Zack went out the window again shutting it behind him.

Cloud rolled her eyes and laughed a bit. He was a werid one, but he was her wierdo.

v^v^v^

"Hey Cloud wait up. I have something to tell you."

Cloud stopped dead in her tracks upon hearing her name called. She looked up to see her best attractive firend, she smiled as she watched Zack catching his breath. She leaned to one side putting her hands on her hips and leaned foreward, still smiling. She tilted her face a little to see him blush. He walked passed her, Cloud smiled seeing Zack's strong nack. He was blessed with a great body, soccer helped him a lot as well. They walked to middle school for five minutes until the huge building came in to view. Zack stopped, he shot his hand trapping hers in his. Cloud stopped looking up in confused expression.

"I-I like-you." Zack shouted out loud looking red.

Cloud froze, looking at him wide-eyed, she wanted to smile but was too shock to even do that. Many kids kept walking minding their own business, while other stopped to stare. Some girls even gave Cloud a glare and muttering angry remarks on her. Cloud ignored them and looked up at Zack, who was looking away with the same blush.

"I like you too Zack," Cloud felt right in saying those words.

She remembered when they first met, how he was bugging her from the begining then turned out to have a mini warzone. The battle was won by Cloud, who was proud and Zack declaring that he let her win because she was girl. Cloud ignored it and kept smiling. He makes her so happy, everytime she looks at him, her heart skips beats, butterflies fly wild inside her tummy. She was happy he helped her out of this storm, he is her happiness. She smiled and leaned up to give him a kiss.

Zack froze for a second and kissed back, putting both his arms around her waist. He smiled as it felt right to hug her. Cloud wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned forwards sharing their first kiss. They pulled away after a while with a blush. Zack gave her a goofy smile and kissed her forehead. The bell rang and they walked hand in hand to their class. Some of the girls still glaring at her, Cloud tried to ignore them and kept walking with her now boyfriend.

^v^v^v^

A year had passed, Cloud and Zack are still dating, her father was getting suspicious. Everytime she visited his office she would go wonder around and look for Zack, then they would hang out for the rest of the day. Not only that, but Cloud's voice began to change, it was getting a little deeper, still same soft voice though. She passed it off as some sort of weird flu. Then Zack had to go visit a family member that was dying. He didn't want to leave her behind.

"I promise I'll be back. I bought you a gift, think of me every time you look at it. My little Chocobo." Zack had nicknamed her after a bird that was getting extinct.

"Fine my puppy," Cloud leaned forward letting Zack put on the necklace. She adopted the nickname from Zack's father who called him puppy. Angeal, Zack's father would ease him about him being a puppy that had way too much energy for his own good. So Cloud now calls Zack Puppy.

"I'll be right back, I promise." Zack gave her one last kiss and he left before her dad saw them.

v^v^v^v

Cloud was cleaning her father's room while she was singing along with the radio. She heard the doorbell, she stopped what she was doing and went to go see who it was. She saw two men in uniforms, this wasn't good. Her stomach churmed as she stared at them with scared eyes.

"Is you father home?" One of them asked.

"Yes, come in. Father!" Cloud said looking for her dad.

She found him in the study writting some reports out. She told them that they were looking for him and that it was urgent. He went to recieve the police men, he saw them with a hard look. The police explained what was happening. None of them made sense until the words car accident and no survivors were heard. Her world stopped spinning.

"Angeal died right after the car hit him. His wife died while the paramedics were trying to revive her. Zack died in the hospital. He left a message. Here, you must be Cloud Strife," The man said handing the paper to Cloud.

She shook, tears streaming down her soft cheeks. She was crying hard, she wanted to calm down but couldn't due to shock. She read over the small letter that her lover wrote to her.

Dear my lovely Cloud,

I'm sorry I couldn't make it. I was really trying to fight for my life so we could grow up have a family and grow old with lots and lots of grandchildren running around our backyard. I was dreaming of that moment, I wish I was still there hugging you. I'm so sorry, please forgive me Cloud. I never wanted this. I love you with all my heart, my little Chocobo.

With love,

Your Puppy, Zack Fair.

Cloud cried that day, she was never going to see her love. He was her happiness, he was her light, her life, her everythinng. It was full of storms when she began to crawl and walk, but when she first me Zack, he was her sunshine. He showed her how to have a fun life, thaught her everything. He was her one and only love. From this day forward, Cloud made a vow not to love again, as she saw a crimson strom heading towards her way agian.

I'm not going to lie, this might have it's sad moments. I feel mean for killing Zack! T-T I love Zack with all my heart! I hope you all like it. Please review. I still might not know where this is going. I have the first couple chapters ready, but yeah... um... Review please! Sorry for any grammar mistakes. O.o
