Prologue-
Kadaj was slouched down with his remote in his hands. He sighed , bored, nothing on tv seemed to gain his attention, he pouted, missing Nii-san. Yazoo was beside him, leaning against Loz, asleep, he seemd to have an even shorter attention spand than the youngest of the silver haired gods. Loz had his hand against his cheek resting it against the arm of the couch. Loz was only two years older than Yazoo, Loz decided to wait till Yazoo graduated highschool to go to college, and so they both ended up going together mon-fri. The house was quiet usually with just Cloud and Kadaj, and normally Cloud would have been back by now, but was two hours late. Of course the day hadnt been that perfect anyways..
Kadaj looked at the love notes in his locker that he got daily and skimmed through them, showing no intrest whatsoever. His eyes widened when he saw one, unbeiliving He ripped it open, throwing the rest in the trash. 'It must be a fake...' he thought. But as he opened it, recognizing the hand-writting it indeed wasnt a fake. He brushed back a silver bang behind the pale shell of an ear, but being used to being in that position, it fell right back into place. He turned around and saw the person who wrote it standing there. He stepped back, there he was, just staring at him, in the middle of the hall way with no one around.. His stomache lurched and he felt sick, he took another step back, but the other one didnt move, just stood watching, as if just a glimpse of Kadaj was heaven for a minute or so...Of course Kadaj didnt find it very amusing, especially now with no one around!
In
the classroom finally after he managed to gain enough nerve to walk
to class..
Kadaj sunk down low in his seat, sensing the other
one staring at him...still. He turned around, finally gathering
enough courage to speak. "STOP STARING AT ME, IM NOT SOME
FREAKIN ANIMAL!" he growled. The other one felt his heart sink,
but Kadaj indeed did not stop. "AND DONT EVER GIVE ME ANY MORE
NOTES EITHER, ITS HARD ENOUGH GETTING THEM FROM THE CURRENT PEOPLE,
AND I REALLY DONT NEED YOURS TOO!" The boys eyes widened.
Kadaj glared at him still as the bell rang for class. The boy ran
out as soon as he could. Kadaj looked at the ground, suddenly
feeling awful..
Kadaj growled and smacked his head. 'Quit thinking about it, the moron doesnt matter, he desevered what he got!' yet in another part of his brain he heard 'How could you ever do that to your own best friend? That admired you and looked up to you...who knows what hell do now..' He must have looked pretty miserable because he didnt even notice Cloud had walked in and was standing by the couch watching him, and that was his whole reason for being there in the first place was waiting for Nii-san. He jumped when seeing him, suprised. "N-Nii- san!" He mumbled. Cloud raised an eyebrow and walked into the kitchen to make something to eat, hungry from the long day. Kadaj looked at the ground. 'stupid friends...it seems all they do is hurt me!' The phone rang. Again... Again... Again... Again..."Kadaj please get that." Cloud said through a mouthful of something. Kadaj snapped out of thought and grabbed the phone. "H..hello?" He said, stumbling on words still.. His eyes widened and his heart sank. 'NO!' He couldnt speak...his eyes just wide...no words he could ever say could EVER describe his pain. Cloud walked in swallowing the last bites of whatever he was eating and drank a glass of water quickly and greedily, then looked over and noticed Kadaj. "K...Kadaj?" This was not his brother, his brother NEVER looked this sad...his brother NEVER was at loss of words..not his brother...maybe anyone else..but not Kadaj. If cloud was ever sad, Kadaj would talk no matter what and try to make him feel better, Yazoo usually kept silent, but at least he still tried, Loz couldnt handle it, he cried plenty himself already.. Cloud walked toward Kadaj and stood in front of him, and bent over, examining his face. Kadaj looked up and blinked. Cloud jumped and turned around, embarrased for some reason. He cleared his throat and sat by the other. "So...?" Kadaj stared at the ground in thought for a while, before answering his brothers question. "Just a bad day.." He whispered, his voice hoarse so that it was barely understandable. Cloud looked at him with eyes narrowed, knowing that there was indeed a lot more to the story, and he was determined to get it all out too, Sephiroth would be mad if he found out Cloud had started slacking off... Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz used to live with Sephiroth for a while, but even though they were well behaved, Sephiroth couldnt handle it, and would have eventually gone crazy, so Cloud had no other option but to take the three in on his own. He had had them for 5 years now. Kadaj was 12 when he first came, and was first to speak..Yazoo was 14 and never spoke, and even now he hardly does..Loz was 16 when he came, and cried everyday, although he had gotten a lot better with that problem, he still did it on and off. The boys now being 17, 19, and 21 had grown pretty close to Cloud and he held no regrets for knowing hed have to let them go one day, he didnt really think of himself as a parent anyways, more of an older brother, even though he rarely ever fought with them, especially Yazoo, who had never once smart-mouthed Cloud.
"Tell me whats wrong." Cloud said again to Kadaj. Kadaj looked at him, his eyes showed no tears, but numbness.. "Denzel is in the hospital..He...he committed suicide...b...because of...of..me..." He shook his head an grasped his hair, balling up fists. He had done this before, but rarely, he would ball up his fist then let go and bring them out, ball them up once more and punch himself hard on both sides. Clouds eyes were full of pity. He put his hands on Kadajs. "Dont." He whispered. Kadaj looked up at him, tears streaming from his eyes.
He was crying.
