I know this chapter looks really short... But I wanted it up today and this is all I have done so far, other than the ending. Actually, though, it doesn't have much dialogue, and, word-wise, it's longer than the last chapter. I've been really busy with Aarinfantasy (if you're on Aarin, look me up... I'm Akasha010) lately, so I haven't been able to write anything. Sorry!

Well, thanks to reviewers! Enjoy!!

Allergy information: This chapter contains shounen-ai (making out and dating) and implied abuse.


"Hey, Cloud."

"Leon." I nodded in greeting, watching him shift towards the right. This would prove to be interesting, if my earlier observations were true. Ignore the fact that knowing this was slightly (okay, major) stalker-esque.

"So, uh, what are you doing this weekend?"

"So far, nothing." I said with a shrug. I casually leaned against his desk, crossing my arms habitually. "Why?"

"Well, um, do you want to go see a movie or something with me?"

"Well, I don't know…" I pretended to think about it for a second before something in my mind clicked. "Hey, wait, as a date?"

Leon fidgeted slightly in his seat, his change in position nearly unnoticeable. Nearly. Being in a strangely playful mood, I simply had to flirt with him a little.

I sat myself down on his lap sideways, crossing one leg over the other. Before I could continue, I was drawn into the most mind-blowing kiss one could ever experience. One of his hands was at the back of my head, pulling me closer, and the other one was wrapped tightly around my waist. I felt so weak, and I was glad that I wasn't standing, because if I had been, I surely would have collapsed.

I fisted my hands in his shirt, leaning into the kiss as much as physically possible. I opened my mouth eagerly when his tongue ran across the seam of my lips, moaning softly as he massaged his tongue against mine.

All too soon, it was over. My head felt light and the room seemed to be spinning. I wrapped my arms around Leon, who seemed to be the only tangible thing left on the planet. My heart was pounding in my chest, and I couldn't seem to catch my breath no matter how hard I tried. I was vaguely aware of the bell sounding, and my body moving into my seat of its own accord, as well as the incessantly loud chatter of everyone-- especially those who had witnessed the kiss.

Throughout the lesson, I couldn't concentrate. I cursed Leon, damning him for being so amazing and making me obsessed with him. And what was up with the way I felt after he kissed me? I'd never felt like that before, no matter who I had been with.

Being around him became addicting. Whenever he was around, I couldn't breathe properly, and my head started to spin. My legs would try to give in, and I'd have to either sit down or cling to him suddenly to keep from collapsing. I couldn't stand the way he made me feel; it was overwhelming, to put it lightly. It wasn't that it was a bad feeling, but I wasn't used to feeling so helpless and weak.

"Good morning." Leon said with a small smile, pulling me into a gentle hug. I breathed in deeply, savoring his scent, which was one of the many things about him that made me feel lightheaded. I clung to him, feeling my knees beginning to grow weak at the mere scent of him. It didn't help that he was holding me so closely, either. I vaguely wondered what doing anything sexual with him would be like if something so innocent made me feel this way, but I quickly dismissed the thought from my head as a blush began to spread across my face.

"Hey, are you alright?" He asked, pulling back to stare at me.

"Yeah." I choked out, feeling myself begin to become emotionally overwhelmed once again as I gazed into his eyes. They really were gorgeous. Unable to help myself, I leaned up towards him and kissed him as my eyelids fluttered shut.

I felt his hands cup the sides of my face as he began kissing me back in his gentle manner. He was always so gentle and careful with me, and it made my heart flutter.

I heard someone clear their throat, and pulled away whilst blushing. Leon's hands fell down to his sides as he turned to glare at the person who had interrupted. Timidly, I glanced up at the interrupter; it was my brother, Roxas.

"Dad's home." He said simply, before turning and quickly walking back to our house.

"Shit." I mumbled to myself, trying to ignore the concerned curiosity in Leon's eyes. "Leon, I have to go. I'm sorry." I pressed a short kiss to the corner of his mouth before walking briskly back to my house. I felt really bad for leaving him like that-- we'd had a date today, one that I had been looking forward to very much-- but if I didn't both Roxas and I would be in major trouble. It wasn't a big deal for Father to be mad at me, but I couldn't stand to let my little brother get hurt because I was being selfish.

I reluctantly returned to reality, and the problem I was facing now. Father was back…


"God, Cloud, what happened to you?" Leon's arms were wrapped tightly yet gently around me, and I could feel his lips lovingly kissing across my face... My cheeks, my forehead, my lips...

Reluctantly, I broke away from the kiss. I had to do this... I didn't want to, but I couldn't risk anything-- especially Leon.

"I- Sorry for calling you out here so late." It was pretty late... Almost 1:30 in the morning (1:27, to be exact).

"Shh, stop apologizing… Who hurt you?"

I tried to pull away from him, tried to do anything to get him to stop fawning over me, but I suddenly found myself powerless. I blamed his never-ending concern for me, this time.

It felt like, no matter what I did, I couldn't seem to get over this feeling around him. Whenever he wasn't nearby, I'd feel sad or restless, but when I was with him I was flooded with feelings of happiness and contentment.

"Please, Leon… I… I don't think I can do this anymore."

"What do you mean?" I could sense the mild fear in Leon's voice, and I really did feel horrible for what I was planning to do.

"I can't… I don't want to see you anymore." I weakly managed to separate myself from him, desperately fighting the tears that threatened to fall. I could see Leon's eyes beginning to tear, too, so I gathered as much strength as I could and began to walk away. "I'm sorry, love." I whispered to the wind as a tear began to fall.
