"GODDAMNIT!" The curse ran through the castle. The rest of the residents went on with what they where doing, except one spiky haired blond, who left the library to find the girl he just heard scream.

"Yuffie-Chan?" He asked, peeking into the room.

"Hai, Nani ga, Cloud-San?" the young girl asked, trying to get up off the bed. The ninja winced doing so.

"What's wrong?" he asked, walking over to her side, gently pushing her back up, and sat beside her.

"My leg hurts again." She spoke, all the while tears rushing down her face.

"Oh." He sighed, putting his two fingers to his golden brow. "Lie down. If it hurts, you shouldn't be trying to get up in the first place." he said, pushing her back, to lie down.

"Cloud-San. Why?" She asked, fresh tears falling down.

"Why what?" He spoke from her dresser, grabbing the wet towel.

"Why doesn't he love me back?"

"Who?"

"..." She didn't speak, but knowing that he would find out sooner or later, she sighed in despair.

"... Leon?" He asked, sounding a little more disappointed then he wanted to. She stared at him in confusion.

*Why such the down face, Cloud-San?*

"Hai."

An awkward silence passed, Cloud looking at his hands, and Yuffie staring at him, confused, and concerned.

"I have to go." He said,plastering a fake smile on his face, almost feeling as if his heart was being ripped out, at that moment. He waved, and left the room.

*(Clouds point of view.)*

Why didn't I see it before? I mused to my-self, feeling anger and loath bubbling inside the pit of my stomach.

"Of course she loves him!" I spat venomously. "He so much better then me!" I told myself, sitting in the small corner of my room. "All the times that she called him "Squall" or when she bugs him all he time, always trying to get closer to him." I hissed, and painfully gripped my hair. "Aeris is always telling me how good-looking Leon is."

I heard a small knock at my door. "Come in." I called, getting out of my position to go sit on my bed.

I once again felt horrible. "Cloud-Chan?" Aeris asked, walking in.

"I'm only one year younger then you. Stop calling me chan!" I said, it started as a whisper, yet exploded at the end, due to the frustration I felt towards Leon, and confusion towards Yuffie.

"I'm sorry. Cloud-..." she paused, and tried to think of something to call me, other then Chan "Kun, are you alright?"

I wanted to yell at her, tell her Of course I'm not! And then, I wanted to hug her, for noticing that I was there. No one really did, other then Aeris here. Yuffie used to, but that was in Midgar, and such.

I stared up into her eyes, and signaled her to sit with an exasperated sigh. She sat beside me with pleaser... A little too close for me. I scooted over, and her brow furrowed in confusion, but then smiled in a worried way, waiting for me to speak.

"I'll just come out and say it." I said, and her eyes lighted up. "I love-" she interrupted

"I love you too, Cloud!" She exclaimed, and hugged me tight.

"Aeris, thats-" She interrupted me once again, but with something other then her words, this time with her lips.

I broke the kiss, and stood up, causing her to fall out of my lap. "Aeris! Jesus!" Yelled down at her. "I don't love you, and if you where listening, you would have heard it!" I exclaimed, rubbing my lips with my arm.

She stood and hugged me. "But Cloud! I love you allot more then anyone else can!" She cried into my shirt.

"Well, your weren't saying that, when you had Your tongue down Leon's throat!" I exclaimed. I heard a gasp from her, and she backed away from me.

"How... What?" She asked, uncertainty in her voice. "What are you talking about Cloud? I love you!" She exclaimed.

"You know, being a SOLDIER does make suspicions rise against allot, and that happened to be one of them. All so, when you have so much MAKO running through you veins, you have a certain immunity to beer." I stated with a bitter smirk.

"You... Got Leon drunk, and made him tell you.." She whispered. The emotions in her eyes all turned to one of hurt. She sunk down to her knees.

"You never loved me, you just want someone to serve your every beck and call!" I growled, staring down at her in hatred. She got up from her position on the floor, and walked closer to me.

"Of course I went to him!" She exclaimed. "Do you know what it's like, not being able to have the one you love?" She asked. "Do you know how lonely it feels? Of course went to someone else!"

"How dare you ask that to me?" I exclaimed, and she looked up to me, her eyes a deep void of hurt and sadness. "Of course I know how that feels!" I exclaimed, face turning red from the lossage of air. " I was looking for my light wasn't I? I love Yuffie, and I can't have her, at all! She loves someone else! And after I searched almost every corner of this universe, and find her, It turns out she..." I resined from the original language I was about to use."loves someone else!" I hissed through clenched teeth.

At that exact moment, I heard a clatter of something that sounded like wood from out side my door.

I opened the door, and what I saw shocked me to no extent.
