Ocean's Weep

He woke up at 6:3o a.m. He looked at the beautiful woman sleeping beside him. She had her hands tucked underneath her head. She was wearing a small smile so serene and peaceful. His wife. His Tifa Lockhart. No. Tifa Valentine.

He remembered when she told him they were going to have a baby.

Flashback

He reached home about 7:00p.m. When he reached the doorstep the door of their house swung open. He was greeted by a kiss. Vincent was stunned, but responded in kind, pushing her into the room and kicking the door shut with his foot. He deepened the kiss, thrusting his tongue inside her mouth hotly, showing her how much he had missed her, and raised his right hand to fondle her hair.

Then she pulled away and tucked her hands behind her. That was her way of saying she had a small secret yearning to be told…he knew her too well.

"What is it?"

"We're going to have a baby."

There, she said it and had put it in the most simple way Vincent was speechless.

He's going to be a father? Him?

He remembered picking her up and spinning her around the room laughing and her crying and laughing with him. She spread her arms wide as if they were wings and she was the angel. Heck, she IS an angel. His angel.

Flashback end

I remember how much you wanted a baby. We had already planned to adopt but it wasn't enough for you. You wanted something you, we, created, together.

I softly caressed your soft skin of your face. You look so peaceful, so beautiful. Yes…

Yes, you are an angel.
