A/N: Hey guys, so I decided to start a new FanFic with my second favourite Final Fantasy pairing CloudxTifa and slight ZackxTifa. Chapter will be pretty short as i'm not usually a long winded writer. I hope you enjoy ^^
Prologue
Fragments
What is this...feeling? Cloud?...no...Z...ack.
Her eyes shot open in a flurry of puzzlement as she scurried to gather her wits about her. She rushed over to her dressing table staring into the mirror with those mahogany eyes Cloud had grew to love.
"I'm me...i'm still Tifa." Her voice was shaken from the nightmare she had witnessed. How could she have even seen such a thing...?
"It wasn't real." She continued, her stare intent.
"It wasn't...real." Her confidence shattered into little pieces within her mind. If it wasn't real...then why did everything feel so real? I could touch his blood-stained skin, watch as his eyes fluttered close and...see him smile, one last time.
"Tifa?" A deep voice resounded from outside her room, snapping her back to reality. She tried to speak, but her voice had other ideas. It felt like a hand was clamped down onto her throat...hard. She couldn't breathe. All innate procedures her body was meant to perform had seized, she stiffened as she only just recognised that her door was smashed open and a warm, well-toned body pressed firmly against hers.
"Tifa...i'm here." Her vision was blurry and her voice still weak, but she managed to croak out a barely audible whisper in question.
"Cloud?"
Arms suddenly tightened and the distinguished blonde haired man buried his face into the crook of her neck, pulling her body ever closer.
"Everything...will be okay...i promise."
