Most people liked the night because it meant the end of the day. They could collapse into bed or have a relaxing bath without having to worry about getting up for work. For the younger population, it usually meant drinking time. Cloud's favourite time of the day was definately night because it was the time for sleeping. And when he slept, he could see her again.
Aerith would always be there as he closed his eyes, waiting for him. And now that he had been forgiven, he could see her face once more. He could look into her sparkling, youthful eyes, he could be entranced with her smile. When it was like this, he wasn't ever scared of not waking up in the morning. Then it wouldn't just be the nights he spent with her but eternity.
But for now, the nights were the only times he could be with his Aerith. It was the only time he could lie in her arms and feel her fingers play with his hair. It was the only time they could be together. He wished there could be more time for the both of them.
But the nights would just have to do.
