Nothing was said between you two as you were riding into the unknown. You still didn't even know his name for that matter. You didn't even know what was going on. You should be in bed waiting for the sun to come up and getting ready for another boring day of school and then after that it would be work. Not to mention coming home only to have beer bottles thrown at you left and right. You also had to make dinner for Ky and Amber then do your homework and go to bed. But no, you were on the coolest motorcycle ever with some hot guy that you don't even know. You were so lost in thought you didn't realize the motorcycle came to a stop.

"We're here." He said.

You jumped at the sound of his voice. You heard him sigh annoyingly. You let go of his waist allowing him to get of the motorcycle. You still sat on it not knowing what to do. He turned around to face you and you were disappointed to find that he was still wearing his goggles. Your mother once told you that the best way to know someone was through their eyes. Remembering your mother made you miss her.

You looked up at him and watched as he removed the goggles from his eyes. You were stunned. You've never seen such beautiful blue eyes in your entire life. Yet, his eyes held such sadness and pain.

"Cloud." He said.

You gave him a confused look.

"My name." He said in his monotone voice.

"Oh." Was all you could say.

You were too scared to ask him anything at the moment. He seemed annoyed with you so you did what you thought was best and looked down at your hands. You felt his eyes on you, but didn't want to look up at those sad eyes of his.

"You've been through so much pain." You blurted it out before you could stop yourself. You put your hand over your mouth. You didn't want to upset him anymore then you already did. You felt so guilty at what you said that you jumped off the motorcycle and ran as fast as your legs could carry you.

You didn't run far though. Before you knew it you were tackled to the ground by Cloud. He straddled your waist making it hard to breathe and he pinned both your arms to the ground. You squeezed both your eyes shut.

"What do you know?" You heard him say angrily.

"I know nothing!" You cried being threatened by tears as they stung your eyes wanting to fall.

You finally opened your eyes and stared right up at him.

You saw that his look changed suddenly. He was staring right into your eyes.

"Your eyes tell me a different story" He said ever so quietly.

"So what?" You asked still uncomfortable in the situation you were in.

"You do know something." He stated.

"What it's like to be alone. What it's like to feel guilty. What it's like to miss someone. Sure I know what's like." You caught him off guard and you know it. You used it to your advantage and pushed him off. You were about to say something when your cell phone rang. You didn't know if it was safe to answer so you looked at Cloud.

"You can answer it if you put it on speaker." He instructed.

You didn't like him invading your privacy, but you had no idea where you were and no way of getting back so you obeyed. You answered the phone and put it on speaker.

"Hello?"

"Bitch, where are you?" You heard the familiar voice of your old man on the end of the line.

"Shut up. I'm not sure at the moment." You said calmly.

"You get your skinny ass back or else i'll throw a whole keg of beer at you instead of one measly beer bottle!" He ordered.

"Easier said than done old man." You said in the speaker.

You could see that the look on Cloud's face was shock. You knew what he was thinking.

"You're not off with some punk are ya?" To your surprise you could hear worry in his voice, but only slightly.

Before I could answer Cloud snatched the phone from my hand.

"I'm not a punk thank you very much." Cloud spoke through the speaker.

"So you're the one that's screwing with my daughter huh? Sorry if I interrupted your fun." And with that you heard the click at the other end of the line.

You stood there in silence. You couldn't believe that Cloud over heard all that crap, let alone involving himself in the conversation.

"Who was that anyway?" Cloud asked with a worried look.

"My dad." You answered.

If you thought Cloud looked shocked earlier, you were wrong. Now he was in complete shock.

"You lie. No father would say that to his daughter."

"You don't know my dad then." You said.

Your old man had a point though. You didn't know where you were. You don't even know why you're here. Why did Cloud kidnap you?

"Why am I here?" You randomly blurted out.

"I'll explain if you come back with me." He answered. He started walking towards his destination except you didn't follow.

"No." You said.

He turned and gave you that annoyed look.

"I want answers…now." You really did want answers and you were sick of listening to Cloud.

He sighed the sigh that says 'I'm annoyed with you' and that really pissed you off.

"If you're so annoyed with me then don't kidnap me!" You suddenly yelled.

"For your information I didn't kidnap you, I rescued you." He stated.

"From what, the boogieman?" You yelled.

"Kadaj, Yazoo, and Loz." He said.

"Who?" You were confused.

"They're looking for Jenova, which is better known to them as mother. We don't know where Jenova is though. They thought they could find someone that had powers to help them reach their goal. You are that person." He explained.

"Me…have powers? You got to be kidding. I can't even stay awake for history class let alone have powers." You couldn't believe what you were hearing.

"Look, until we figure things out let's go to the 7th Heaven bar where I live. We can protect you from Kadaj and the others." Cloud gave you a pleading look.

"One more thing is bothering me though." And it has really been bothering you for awhile.

"What is it?" He asked.

"How did you get in my dreams?" You asked.

Cloud looked very pale and nervous when you asked him.

"Nevermind. Just promise that you'll tell me when you're ready okay?" You said sensing his discomfort.

He looked surprised when you let him off easy. He gave a simple nod.

"Alright then, let's head over to 7th Heaven." You said as Cloud lead the way. You had a strange feeling that you and Cloud would become good friends, at least you hoped so. You had no idea though how close you would be.
