Before Sinking Back

"Cloud…"she called out weakly from the luminous and swirling green matter surrounding her. She tried with all her strength just to touch him. She wanted to let him know that she loved him back, and he didn't have to feel guilty about her death—it wasn't his fault.

She could see him…holding her dead body over the small pond. She could see his beautiful blue eyes were filled with agony and tears.

Everyone in the group Avalanche stood behind him on the ground. She could see that Yuffie and Tifa were crying silently. The men's faces had a soft look on them.

She saw that Cloud had lowered her into the pond. He wiped the tears away with his sleeve, but that didn't do any good. Tears still fell from his eyes.

Before the Lifestream had a chance to drag her into the afterlife, she walked with all her remaining strength to where Cloud was.

She stood behind him and gave him a hug. She never let go, until the Lifestream gently consumed her.

Sorry if it still sounded kind of intense O.O

I tweaked the ending a little bit...it reminds me of FFX lol, except that Aerith is hugging Cloud, and instead of Cloud hugging Aerith.
