Bokura: Okay , so I am redoing this chapter! I am going to tell you this now though…POVs WILL CHANGE! If it changes I WILL SAY SO! Okay now that we have that point known, here is another one haha! This story is dedicated to:Crimson Vixen because she loves the Reno and Cloud pairing! And about the story I want to make it a post-AC story haha, it seems more appropriate now that I think about it. So please enjoy my first Cleno story (wow this is so weird! I'm used to HikaKao stories!) I will do my best! Oh and I do not own FFVII no matter how many times I wish I did….
Then and Now
Normal POV
A man with a pale face lay on the ground ,staring at the disappearing clouds. Blood was flowing down his face as rain poured. He sat glaring at the darkened sky wondering when this was finally going to end. He flinched as more pain coursed through his body. A sigh escaped his lips as he heard the movement of his partner. A young male with spiked blonde hair came crawling next to the dying figure. The younger looked at the pure darkened blue irises below him.
"Zack…."
The young soldier watched Zack grit his teeth with more pain and finally watched as their eyes locked.
"On my behalf…."
The younger looked confused as he repeated what Zack had said.
"That's right. You will…"
"I will?" The blonde felt the older man reach behind his neck and pulled his face onto his chest. Blood stained the soaked teenager's face as he heard the shallow breathing coming from his partner.
"…..live." Silence was taken over as the dark haired Zack caressed the blonde's neck for just a little while.
The blonde woke, sweat drenched on his face. This was the third time this week that those memories haunted his dreams. He lifted his bare hands to the beautiful irises that proved to others he had mako in his system because of the unusual blue that tinted them. The hands covered those magnificent eyes as tears were being held back. He refused to show any weakness such as crying. Whoever heard of a hero ,who saved the planet twice, cry? Most heroes were supposed to celebrate every night of their life and wear a smile every moment of the day. And besides…didn't he forgive himself for those deaths?
He got up from the bed and allowed the covers to be scattered on the bed. He needed to visit that place again, or else the guilt would be too heavy for him today. And with that , it caused Tifa and the others to worry. His boots hit the ground as he went down the stairs and out of the Seventh Heaven bar. He uncovered his Fenrir and kicked the kickstand to set out on his way towards the last place he saw Zack alive.
Meanwhile
"Yo…" A yawn escaped the man who had mangled red hair tied in a ponytail. He sat down on one of the stools that was set in front of the island. His face hit his crossed arms as he tried his best to not go back to sleep. 'What do they expect of me at six in the flippin' morning?! I mean, geez Cloud saved everyone again, shouldn't we be able to relax for once?!' Another yawn escaped his mouth.
"Reno, I've never seen you up this early." Reno opened his sky blue irises that had green mixed within them, causing many people to mistake his eye color.
"Shut it Elena…" Reno lied his head back in the position it was in before the blonde woman spoke to him.
"Geez, someone isn't a morning person. Here have some coffee."
He lifted his head back up again and grasped the coffee in his hands, allowing the heat to pulse through his pale fingers.
"What's up with you Elena?"
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"Get laid by Tseng or somethin'? You're never in a good mood in the mornings yo."
A smack landed on the male's face from a fuming Elena.Hits were profusely blown on the mangled red head.
"Reno! How dare you! I was trying to be nice!"
"Sorry , sorry…I give, I give!"
The blonde let out a humph as she put her hand back to her side. A sigh was heard from the female as she turned back towards the sink to stare outside the grand window.
"You had another dream didn't you?" Her hands clenched the corners of the sink.
"…"
"Reno…you need to talk about it you know?"
"…I got to head out now before Rufus kills me for being late." With that the man left, coffee in one hand, an electrorod in the other.
"Reno…" She watched the suited man leave towards his next mission. Another sigh escaped her lips as a bald-headed man walked into the kitchen, sunglasses covering his eyes as usual. "Good morning Rude, up at the usual time I see."
"Morning Elena, Reno leave?"
"Yeah…"
"Hn. His mission isn't even until two today."
Reno's POV
I continuously kicked the rocked that decided to grace me with its presence. I let out a sigh as I remembered last night's dream that I keep having. It's always about that damn chocobo head. I mean, yeah, I know I've had feelings for that ass, but I've had these emotions for months now, and I never dreamt of him once. Okay, okay I admit I have had some kinky ones every now and then, not going to lie, but now it's different. I see his death and I see him being tortured by one person…Hojo. But every night I tell myself it can't happen..he's dead right? Way ,way, way into the lifestream. Then again, Sephiroth was too, but he came back as healthy as ever. Dammit, I'm thinking too much…it's just a dream, and it's Cloud we are talking about here! He's strong enough to kill that bastard if he tries to touch him! Right? Right! Great now I'm having conversations in my head…ugh I need a drink….
Bokura: Yeah, I know not very long..heheh but I feel better with this approach! And don't worry you guys will eventually see the dream that Reno has haha. And yes I know, the point of this story will come…hehheh I already gave you a hint…somewhat. Heheh, well till next time! And I promise the next time won't take so long! Haha, you might even get more tonight! But I'm having thoughts for a Tactics story and it won't leave me alone, yup so gotta do something about that and Angel Sanctuary as well.
