"Hey, Lauren, Cloud is sick."
I pressed my eyebrows together as I gaped at him.
"Cloud gets sick?"
"Well duh he is human."
"Oh yeah."
He shifted and I could hear the smile in his voice slightly.
"He wants you to cuddle with him."
I raised my eyebrows and pressed my lips together, glad he cant see my blush.
"Really? I hope he is okay."
"Hm. I'm sending you in."
Before I had time I hear Cloud's weakened voice say hey to me. I felt myself twirl around and his energy hit me in the face.
"Oh..! Hey. You feeling okay?" Instinctively I put my hand on his forehead.
"Hey! Dont baby me. Your acting like Tifa."
I rolled my eyes. Then I felt him lay down.
"Come lay down with me." he said quietly.
Without saying anything I removed my shoes and socks and climbed in next to him. I curled up around him as he nuzzled his head into my neck. I sighed softly and wrapped him into my arms. I was content. There was nothing to it but pure bliss. I wish I didn't have to move. He softly talked to me, about random things. It was cute how congested he sounded.
Later on I learned that he was naked under the covers that day. I couldn't tell because I am Third-Eye Blind. But I found out that when Vincent asked him why Cloud didn't say anything about it he shrugged.
"There was nothing perverted about it. So I didn't think there was a reason to say something about it."
I am glad he didnt tell me but I also wished I would have known. But things turned out the way they did for a reason. I know that we grew closer that day.
