Something


Something about Cloud Strife kept him coming back. Something about that blond haired, mako-infused, blue-eyed, introverted, unsociable, expressionless, angst-ridden twenty-three year old kept him coming back, despite all of his flaws and all of his problems, despite all the problems he caused and despite all the arguments he sparked. Something kept the twenty-five year old brunette coming back, wanting more and more each time, always longing for his attention like a small child but lusting for his body like the adult man he was, craving everything about the blonde ex-SOLDIER, wanting everything about him.

It was almost unfair, the way Cloud had Leon wrapped around his finger, even though he had absolutely no idea that he did.

Something about the way Leon would have to wake Cloud up in the middle of the night, screaming and thrashing about, sweat pouring down his face, his almost-glowing blue eyes opened wide in fright and horror, his mind wracked with pain and terror—something about that kept him coming back for more, kept the brunette wanting to stay by the blonde's side, keeping his eyes open for as long as possible, making sure Cloud was okay when he'd go back to sleep, making sure that the night terror wouldn't come back, making sure that the heartbreaking, paralyzing scream wouldn't occur again. Something about that made Leon happy, even though he thought of himself as a sadist when the thought crossed his mind. Something about being the only one who could make sure that Cloud was okay, the only person who could calm him down and get him to sleep again… It was comforting. And reassuring.

Something about the fact that he was the only person Cloud allowed his guard to lower around pleased Leon. Maybe it was the fact that Leon was the only person to see Cloud's amused and happy side, the only person who knew how seductive he could be, the only person who Cloud allowed to see his more natural, playful side that made Leon happy.

Cloud was so odd. So off-beat. So cold and expressionless. So quiet and brooding. So strong and yet so self-hating. So beautiful. He was like nothing Leon had met before. Or would ever meet again. Something about this mysterious, handsome and stalwart man left the brunette longing for him, pining over the opposite sex, even though Leon had always figured himself to be straight. Something about the gloomy ex-SOLDIER was strong enough to completely change Leon's way of thinking, life and even sexual orientation.

Something about him made Leon fall in love all over again, despite the promise he'd made to himself all that time ago, to never love anyone, not after Riona left him. Something about that man made Leon break all promises he'd made to himself, even the one where he'd vowed that no one would ever be able to say his true name, the one he'd left behind in fear of his past. Something about that blue-eyed, blond-haired person made Leon change his own perspective on life, love and how he viewed himself.

Something about Cloud Strife made Leon break down all of his walls.

Something about Cloud Strife attracted Squall "Leon" Leonhart.

Something about Cloud Strife. Leon still hadn't figured it out.
