Author Note: Okay, this is the first fic I'm posting in 2009. Not only that but it's the first fic I'm posting from my new Vista!! So, this is a Cid/Vincent or Valenwind if that's what you want to call it, set in the Kindgom Hearts world.

Rain
Cid hated the rain. He hated everything about rain but, what he hated most was the memories the rain brought back, memories of crimson eyes, silky black hair and kissable pale lips. He hated how he was stuck in this world not knowing if his husband, his lover, his mate, was still alive, hell, Cid did not even know if Gaia was over come by the darkness or if the Lifestream protected the planet.
Sighing, Cid pushed away from the computer to glare out the window. Rain fell from the dark gray sky and lightening danced around the tiny droplets like an exotic lover. Even though Cid himself hated rain and all things that marred the normally cheerful sky, his husband loved the rain and storm that the rain brought with it.
He could just see him standing out there, head tilted back, crimson eyes closed, water sliding down his forever youthful face, arms out stretched as if embracing the storm, his dark hair plastered to the side of his face and a small, soft smile spread across pale lips. The vision of his lover turned toward him and slowly crimson eyes opened. A hand was extended to him and the soft smile remained.
"Come, Chief, dance with me."
That dark, velvet like voice was still the same and for a moment, Cid forgot that the man he saw was nothing but his imagination. How he yearned do as asked. He would give anything to hold that slender form in his arms and twirl around in the rain, listening to the soft laugh only he could get his lover to do.
Even though Cid hated the rain and the painful memories the rain brought but, he missed Vincent more.
