A/N: Ok, I'm sure you guys have read some of my CxA one-shots, and it all seems that I'm torturing Cloud. I want to tell you that I'm not! I'm just setting a visual for you to see how much Aerith/Aeris means to him.
Hope you enjoy another one!
Discliamer: I do not own any of Square-Enix's characters.
Untold Feelings
He held her lifeless form in his hands above the water. He couldn't help but gaze at her beauty one last time, before he released her into the depths below.
He had so much that he wanted to tell her, but when she was still alive, he didn't know how to put it in words. He wanted to wait after this crisisto tell her how he felt—possibly get...married.
