Everything was quiet in at the 7th Heaven bar. Not many people showed up to drown their worries away in alcohol since it was raining outside. You sat on the stool drinking your own worries away. Tifa; the hostess of the bar approached you.
"Hey Sayon, you look a little down today." She commented and you drink down the last of the contents from the glass.
"I guess you could say that." You said as you set the empty glass down.
"Wanna talk about it?" She asked as she took your glass and fixed you another drink.
"That depends if you want to hear it." You said. Tifa placed the drink in front of you.
"What's it about?" She asked curious.
"Cloud." You answered and you took a gulp of your drink. You had a crush on the great hero for quite some time. You didn't know if he felt the same so here you are in the bar drinking down your worries.
"You like Cloud don't you?" Tifa caught on.
"Yeah." You mumbled with blush creeping up to your face.
"I thought you said that you didn't like anybody?" Tifa questioned.
"Ever heard of lying?" You countered.
"That's true." Tifa laughed.
"Promise you won't tell?" You begged.
"I won't." Tifa smiled and went on with her work.
Later that day you were on your way home in the rain. You didn't even have a umbrella with you, but you didn't care. You personally liked the rain. You liked the feeling it gave you. It was better than alcohol. It not only washed your worries away, but also gave you peace of mind. You were just standing there on the sidewalk with you head looking up at the gray sky.
"Sayon?" You heard a voice call your name. You snapped back into reality and looked to see who called you.
"Hi Cloud." You greeted and he nodded in response. Even in the rain; his hair stayed the same. That must be some gravity defying hair he's got or very powerful hair gel.
"What are you doing out here in the rain?" Cloud asked as he tilted his head to the side.
"I should be asking you the same question." You countered and you saw a slight smile form on his lips; only a slight smile.
"I'm on my way home." He answered.
"Oh, well i'm just cleansing myself." You said tilting your head back to feel the rain droplets on your face.
"Cleansing?" Cloud questioned in confusion.
"Yeah, i'm washing my worries away. Even though it's for a short time. It's nice to be worry-free for a little while." You stated.
You heard Cloud walking closer to you. You wanted to forget your love for him; just for a moment. Having him nearby though was not helping solve the problem.
"Mind if I 'cleanse' with you?" He asked and you nodded in response.
He stood next to you looking up at the sky. You knew you were gonna end up with a cold later on, but you didn't care. You were with Cloud. You closed your eyes and drowned out the world around you; every sound, every motion, everything. The only thing that mattered was you and the rain.
You were so focused that you didn't realize that Cloud was right in front and not beside you. All the sudden you were brought to reality as you felt something soft and moist touch your lips. You opened you eyes to find that it was Cloud's lips that was touching yours. You were shocked and your heart was racing. You nervously kissed back and he wrapped his arms around your waist. You rested your hands on his chest and the kiss was deepened. Never in a thousand years did you think that this would happen to you. What's better is that it's Cloud who's doing it. Your lungs needed air so you had no choice but to pull away. You were both panting for breath. Cloud rested his forehead on yours.
"I really like you Sayon." Cloud confessed and you couldn't be happier.
"I feel the same way." You said as you kissed him again.
