In his eyes – chapter one

I don't own Final fantasy 7

Pairing – starts of with some RenoxCloud then goes into ZackxCloud

Zack's pov:

It was another warm day in Midgar, I watched as the new recruits shifted uncomfortably I their line as me and Kunsel inspected them. As I walked down the line a certain blond boy with blue eyes caught my attention, at first I thought he was a girl because of his feminine features. He was smaller than the other recruits and have less muscle than the others also he had big wide eyes.

He glanced up towards me and quickly looked down with a blush. I smiled at his odd behaviour and walked back up to the front. "Welcome to Shinra, here you will train to become a SOLIDER, I hope that you will do well during your training" I announced, "I am lieutenant Zack fair SOLIDER first class, I will be teaching you everything that you need to know to be a SOLIDER" I told the recruits. They all replied with "yes sir".

I watched as they were escorted out of the hall. I sighed "Hey, what do you think of the newbies" I heard Kunsel say from behind me. "I think that they have what it takes to make it, if that's what you think" I told Kunsel. He smiled "yeah" he simply said.

Cloud's pov:

I walked out of the hall and into a large room. I was given my room key and my bags. As I walked down the hall all the other recruits were looking at me, as I walked down some of the boys winked at me. I looked down not wanting to look at them.

"Oi blondie" I heard one boy say, I turned around to see a well built looking boy who was about 6'0 staring down at me. "What is it" I asked him, he smiled and said "why don't you come to my room and we can have some fun". I was speechless, he grabbed onto my arm and pulled me forward. "u-um n-no thank you" I meekly said, "and why not" he said, before I could answer I heard someone shout "Hey you, let go of him" a man who had red hair and was tied back into a ponytail.

The boy let go of me and whispered in my ear "we'll continue this later" and walked off. I turned around to see the red haired man standing there. "hey are you okay" he asked me, I nodded in shock, "thank you" I said, whilst trying not to tremble. "Hey no problem yo, a guy like you shouldn't be wandering around like that" he said freely.

What did he mean by 'a guy like me'. I stared at him in confusion, "any way, I'm Reno" he smiled. "Cloud" I told him, "so Cloud, where's your room?" he asked me. "umm" I looked at the piece of paper in my hands "it's room 312" I answered. "Okay, I'll take you there" he offered "thanks" I said.

As I began to walk down the hall with Reno, it seems that the other recruits stopped looking at. Man this place is strange. As we arrived to the room Reno said "hey if you would like to we could meet in the cafeteria at lunch" he gave a grin. "Sure that would be nice" I said. His grin became wider "sweet, I'll pick you up at 12" he said. We said our goodbyes and he walked away. He was wired, but he did save me from that creep from earlier though. I shrugged it off and entered my room.

Today sure was eventful. I put my stuff on the floor, I think it's time to take a shower before Reno gets here. I checked the time it was 11 am, I a hour to get ready. I went into the bathroom, I turned on the shower and took of my uniform and got into the shower.

As I got out of the shower I looked in the mirror. Know wonder why the other boys look at me, I have a body which isn't that masculine and I kind of look like a girl. I sighed and got dressed, I looked at the clock, it was 11:30 am, I still have some time to myself before I go.

Time flew by as I was sitting on the sofa reading a book. I heard a knock on the door, I walked up and answered it. "Hey Cloudy boy" Reno said with a cocky grin. I smiled, "are you ready to go", "yeah, just let me grab something first" I quickly said. I went back into my room and bent down to look in my bag for my wallet which had my money in.

I finally found it and made my way over to Reno "you finally ready yo?" he questioned, I nodded and we made our way to the cafeteria.

When we got there we sat down at a table, after sitting there and talking for a bit Reno said "do you wanna get some food". "Yeah, do you want anything?" I answered, he just replied with "yeah, I'll come up with you" I just nodded. We walked up to the food area, I watched as Reno got his, I smiled, he sure is a strange I thought. I got a couple of things, but I saw this one item on the top shelf.

I tried to get it by going to my toes and reaching up, darn my shortness, I felt someone from behind me reach up and got the item of food. I blushed out of embarrassment, I turned around to thank this person until I found out who it was. I looked up and saw lieutenant Zack smiling "here you go"as he handed me the item. I blinked several times and blushed "t-thank you sir" I stuttered and looked away trying to hide my blush.

"So spike are you here by yourself" he questioned, did he just call me spike, I brushed of the nick name that he gave me "no I'm with -" before I could finish Reno butted in "Yo Cloud". I sighed "with him" I said pointing at Reno who was currently running up towards me. "hey I was wondering where you were" he said worryingly. That was when I realised that Zack was still standing there.

As I opened my mouth to say something to Zack, Reno interrupted "who are you" he spat out. I stood there in shock, did he just say that. "I'm Zack fair, a first class SOLIDER, and who are you" Zack bitterly said. Reno smirked "I'm Reno, and I'm working for the Turks" he proudly said. Wait I never knew he was working for the Turks.

"Well now that the introduction is over we can go, come on Cloud" Reno said with a deep voice. "I'm sorry sir" I said and walked of with Reno. We got back to the table and Reno was sitting opposite me. " I'm sorry about that" I heard Reno say, "it's okay, I never knew that you were a member of the Turks" I told him whilst looking up at him with wide eyes. That's probably why when Reno was taking me back to my room the other cadets stopped looking at me.

"Yeah, I was planning on telling you today, but mister first class SOLIDER made me say it" he said looking at me, "but any way, you haven't told me where you were from". I stopped picking at my food "I'm from Nibelheim" I said shyly, waiting fro the comments that he might throw at me. "Huh, I've never heard of that place before" he said out of the blue, "yeah, it's a small village in the country" I told him.

"So tell me why you joined SOLIDER" he asked me, I stopped picking at my food. "Hey if you don't want to tell me it's fine" he quickly said after noticing my discomfort, "I'll tell you later" I sighed. Not wanting to tell him when there are a lot of people around. He just nodded.

After finishing our food Reno took me back to my room, "thanks for today" I said looking at the floor, "it's okay kiddo, I'll see you tomorrow, after your first day of training, right?" he asked me, I just smiled and nodded. "See ya later" he said whilst leaving me at my door. I went inside and laid on the bed. Today sure was long and yet it's only 1 in the afternoon. I sighed and sat up on the bed. Might as well check the rest of this place out I thought, hopefully I don't bump into that guy from earlier.

I walked out of my room, checking if the cost was clear, I walked out of my room and walked a little bit down the hallway when I heard "Hey blondie". I quickened my past and looked down at the floor, but as I did I bumped into someone, I fell to the ground and I was suddenly surrounded by a group of boys. "Now, it's time to finish of where we were last time"said the one from earlier. I crouched down beside me and grabbed me face so that it was facing him.

Why does always this happen to me.
