"I love you Cloud, when haven't I?" Her words made him feel strange inside, like something was filling his once empty heart. Her smile added to everything. He said nothing, and kept his mako blue eyes fixed past her, her smile disappeared into a frown of concern, "...Cloud?" She asked worridly, and then a door opened into completely darkness, he looked at it, something about it made the hairs on the back of his neck rise. Tifa looked around at the door, and started to walk towards it, she looked over her shoulder, a casual smile on her face, and then she was gone.
"Tifa!" He called after her, not game enough to walk through the door. "Tifa!?" He called again, "See, I'm not fit to help anyone." He muttered, and then, the dark room, became darker as it fell away from the ex SOLDIER.
"Um... Cloud?" Tifa shook his shoulder softly, trying too wake him from his sleep. He groaned as he rolled over, sleepily wiping my eyes awake. He sat with an ache, his arms pushing him up with a problem. Blue green eyes met with Chocolate brown ones; for only a moment before the guy looked away. He scratched the back of his head, still looking away,
"Tifa..." He started, his voice more quiet then usual. He gazed back at her , as she watched him also, hers seemed to just melt through him. An awkward silence passed, until the barmaid broke it.
"You gonna get up some time today silly." She chuckled softly, and stood up. Standing still for a moment she spoke,
"Breakfast is ready down stairs when you're ready-" She paused and looked over her shoulder happily, "-okay?" He blushed for a moment, why did she have to look like that.
The ex SOLDIER spat the rest of the toothpaste into the bowl, upon looking back up, he watched his reflection in the mirror, before he had a flash back of Zack dying. A strong arm pulled the blonde to his chest, "You must live both our lives, you are the evidence that I lived." And with that, his arm fell to his side that now lay limp. Raising his head, half running red of the man that he so much cherished. The ran soaked through his hair, a long painful cry ran through his lips into the sky. He shook his head, shaking the thought from his mind, Zack was gone now, there was no point dwelling on the past.
He sat at the barstool of 7th Heaven, and ate his breakfast, Marlene and Denzel sitting beside each other, swinging their feet as they were far off the ground.
"Hey, Cloud, when will you be home tonight?" Asked Marlene looking up from her drawing. Cloud paused and looked at the young girl,
"Urh, 7 tonight... I think." He watched the little girl smile and continue their drawings, sometimes Cloud wondered if Marlene wanted him at home more then Tifa. Marlene was open to liking him; as she was young, and saw the ex SOLDIER as an older brother or something, unlike Tifa, who he wasn't sure about anymore. She'd showed him her affection once before, back in their home town, but from then on, he was unsure if she felt the same towards him still.
He pushed the chair back,
"Thanks Tifa, better get going got some deliveries to get too." He slid the boxs onto his bike, and turned back to wave goodbye. Tifa looked up,
"Oh, Cloud. Reno called earlier, he said he needed to talk to you. He sounded kinda stressed." Cloud turned around,
"Where are they?"
"Healin', Stay safe Cloud.."
He nodded, and slid onto his bike, before kicking the thing into gear, and riding off into the distance. First stop, Kalm.
Tifa wiped the cup clean, she held it up at eyes height to make sure that it gleamed, and wasn't any smudging or fingerprints on them. She smiled,
"There." She placed it down with all the other clean ones, she hummed softly to herself, keeping herself occupied. The door swung open,
"Welcome to 7th--" She paused as she turned to find Vincent, the mysterious man that was a friend of her,
"Oh, Vincent. How're you?" She asked with a smile. As usual the man said nothing, and walked closer.
"Marlene and Denzel are gone." He stated calmly, the smash of glass hitting the ground echoed through the bar. Tifa covered her mouth, as silent tears ran down her face,
"What'd you mean? They're at school!" She gasped, Vincent looked at Tifa, red eyes gleaming in something that Tifa did not understand,
"C'mon, we better go get them then." She placed the cups down, and went with Vincent. Locking the door swiftly behind her.
Okay, first chapter up. I know it's short, but they'll get better; promise x
