Cloud x tifa…..umm ya review pwease! Songfic to "say goodbye" by skillet…they in italics…ooo and ya I don't own shit! Ha enjoy
Don't want to say goodbye
Cloud stood there…in the fires of Nibleheim in complete awe of what was happening around him. Everything, everything was gone.
Sephiroth.
He was there…at the reactor, he knew it.
Things are changing
It seems strange and I need to figure this out
You've got your life I got mine
But you're all I cared about
Yesterday we were laughing
Today I'm left here asking
Where has all the time gone now
I'm left alone somehow
Growing up and getting older I don't want to believe it's over
Cloud ran as fast as he could through Mt. Nibel, something else was there that was just as important to him as killing Sephiroth.
Tifa…she was there, and Cloud swore he would keep his promise to her.
Don't say goodbye Cause I don't wanna hear those words tonight
Cause maybe it's not the end for you and I
And although we knew This time would come for me and you
Don't say anything tonight If you're gonna say goodbye
He reached the reactor and ran up the stairs in a blind fury not knowing or caring if someone was there awaiting his arrival. And he arrived just in time to see the worst sight he could ever see…
Do you remember
In December How we swore we'd never change
Even though you're leaving That our feelings Would always stay the same
I wish we could be laughing
Instead I'm standing here asking
Do we have to end this now
Can we make it last somehow
Sephiroths evil laugh rang out, as his blade cut Tifa straight across the chest, making a deep gash. Clouds eyes widened at the sight as his breath hitched in his throat. It was like slow motion, watching his childhood friend, his secret love, fall to the ground…
We both know what we've gotta say, not today
Cause I don't wanna leave this way
Don't say goodbye
Cause I don't wanna hear those words tonight
Cause maybe it's not the end for you and I
And although we knew
This time would come for me and you
Don't say anything tonight If you're gonna say goodbye
He ran to her side quickly taking her in his arms, watching the blood pour out. He didn't know what to do he watched in a panic..
"Tifa…tifa come on…open your eyes….tifa.."
He tried pressing his hand to the wound, trying to stop the bleeding…but it was in vain. Her hand reached up and rested on his.
And if it's over
It hurts but I'm giving you my word
I hope that you're always Happy like we were
Happy like we were
"Tifa!"
"So…cloud y…you…kept your…promise.." she choked out…as she gave him a small smile.
"i..of course…I told you I would rescue you.."
She started coughing, choking, and gasping for breath. He despretely tried to stop the bleeding but…it wouldn't stop.
"Don't push yourself cloud…it..its ok…leave me…go..get sephiroth..
"i…I cant leave you!"
"you can…go…go..for me…please.."
Though he didn't want to admit it…cloud knew…he knew…she couldn't be saved…not like this…
"Tifa…i..i…" he sat there…holding her…his mouth dry the words wouldn't come out
"its ok cloud…i..i know…you've always…had a hard time…with emotions.." she smiled at him
"I..im sorry I wasn't in time….forgive me…"
Don't say goodbye
Cause I don't wanna hear those words tonight
Cause maybe it's not the end for you and I
And although we knew This time would come for me and you
Don't say anything tonight If you're gonna say goodbye
She looked him right in his gorgeous mako eyes..
"no…you were just in time…I could say goodbye…"
She reached up to touch his face…but just shy of his cheek…her hand fell limp to her side.
"Tifa! Tifa! No no you…you cant…don't..leave me…please…i…im alone without you…"
Tears flowed down the would be soldiers face, as he looked up at the door to jenovas room…where sephiroth was. He laid Tifa down gently..
"I'll be back for you…I promise"
He grabbed the buster sword and made his way up the stairs…with every step his grip on the sword getting tighter. As he gripped the handle on the door…one thought went through his head….
Yesterday we were laughing (if you're gonna say goodbye)
Today I'm left here asking (if you're gonna say goodbye)
And although we knew this time would come for me and you
Don't say anything tonight If you're gonna say goodbye
…."I will always love you"
