I Know
Disclaimer: I do not own Final Fantasy 7 and I never will.
A/N: Just a little something I wrote on a rainy night….. Oh and when Tifa says 'My only real friends' she means back when she lived in Nibelhiem before Sephiroth destroyed it.
I have been lost in my life
And I mean over and over again
But there was something inside me
That felt so right
You and music were my only friends
I ran my fingers over the smooth, cold keys of the piano, in front of which I sat. I closed my eyes. 'My only real friends, anyway.'
You were always there along the way
With every breath and every step I take
After Meteor, I finally mustered up enough courage and audacity to tell Cloud. I told him everything, every detail, and every word that entered my mind.
……..I love you Cloud. I have loved you for so long. I love you, with every fiber of my being, more than any word can begin to describe.
I then began to cry silently. I was positive Cloud still loved Aerith. I knew his heart was hers and I could never compete. But I just had to tell him, I couldn't keep it inside any longer for fear my heart would burst. To my surprise, he warmly reached up and wiped the tears from my eyes with his hand. He smiled sadly, almost sympathetically and engulfed me in an affectionate hug.
I can leave you alone
But I'll never leave you
I can't tell you a lie
I'll never deceive you
I can hold on forever and never let go
I know that you know
I know that you know I know
"Tifa…..." he whispered, "I want you to know…….. I consider you more than a good friend…but…,"
My heart sank slightly. 'But?'
"I can never forget Aerith."
"I know Cloud, I understand." I replied breathlessly.
"But Tifa…"
My stomach fluttered pleasantly when he said my name.
"I think… I think I love you too. I think that we can be," he said gently in my ear as he took my hand,"….together."
"You think?" I asked. "Or you know?"
"I know," he said firmly, looking into my eyes, and yet tenderly at the same time. His eyes were the purest azure, his Mako eyes. He then kissed me compassionately.
You are the voice inside me
That tells me over and over again
That my spirit can fly me, won't deny me
And there'll be no beginning or end
There are angles singing in the sky
They see our love and give us wings to fly
I can leave you alone
But I'll never leave you
I can't tell you a lie
I'll never deceive you
I can hold on forever
And never let go
I know that you know
I know that you know I know
After all our goodbyes to our fellow AVALANCHE members, Cloud and I moved back to Nibelhiem, into my old house. After five phenomenal months of living together, Cloud proposed to me. The ring was stunning, absolutely breathtaking. It was a diamond ring with two little sapphires on either side of the diamond with a platinum band. The sapphires reminded me of his beautiful eyes.
I can't imagine living in a world without you here
Do you know what that makes me, baby?
Like an animal running from the scent of fear
Call me paranoid, but I'm not crazy
I know you know, it's true
We're never apart
We are one heart
I'll love you over and over and over and over
"Oh….Cloud…." was all I could manage at the sight of him, with the ring, kneeling before me.
"Tifa, will you marry me?"
I began to cry sweet tears of bliss.
"Yes! Oh, Gods, yes!"
I threw my arms around him.
I can leave you alone
But I'll never leave you
I can't tell you a lie
I'll never deceive you
I can hold on forever
And I won't let go
I know that you know
And I'm never letting go baby
I know that you know I know
