Chapter 2- Saved by a Hero

Yuffie POV

"I'm alright, I'm alright," I said turning around rubbing my forehead to ease the pain. I hoped that the huge red mark on my forehead would disappear. Where did that pole come from? I swear that pole I ran into… magically appeared out of no where. Yes, yes I know it is hard to believe but do you think that I, the Great Yuffie Kisaragi, is the type to run into poles……ok, don't answer that. So, maybe I am a little 'unco' but only when I'm nervous and you would be nervous too if an extremely hot guy was behind you…

"Are you sure you're alright?" the blonde guy asked with concern in his eyes. This sweet side of him made my heart skip a beat.

"I'm fine," I replied reassuringly giving my trademark smile. For a few seconds, our eyes were silently locked into each other's …but those few seconds felt like an eternity. I could die happy. He looked so hot right now…drool

"Okay Yuffie, what do I do now?"

"I dunno…"

A/N- yes, Yuffie talks to herself in her mind

"What do you mean 'I dunno'? You're my frigging mind, you usually know what to do,"

"Well I'm sor-ry! I don't know what to do but if you don't do something you'll end up looking like a fool!"

"A fool?"

"Yes, a fool! Cos' right now you are staring at him and drooling like a dog!"

Shit! I was droolingI quickly wiped my mouth and looked away embarrassed. Okay Yuffie, you have to do something…So, I finally convinced myself to do something and I ran away…yes, I ran away…dude, I couldn't think of what to do, ok?

I ran away to the fruit section looking behind me to see if the mystery guy was still in sight. He was so nice to me…no one's ever nice to me in my stupid old town. Most of the people in Twilight Town weren't very nice. They would all ignore me and think that I was some annoying brat who causes trouble all the time.

Hmm…I wander what that guy is doing now…wait, what was his name? I wished I'd asked him for his name…Damn, I regret running away from him because now he thinks I'm some crazy chick who falls down 24/7, runs away like a lunatic, drools like a dog, and runs into poles.

'Anyway, why did I run to the fruit section?'

After 5 minutes of thinking…

Oh yeah! I had to buy Aunt Shera some fruit. After leaving the shop with a trolley full of goods, I felt somewhat relieved. I could finally leave this shop and forget about the embarrassing things that happened with the mysterious blonde guy. But I secretly wanted to see his gorgeous face again drool. I mean…who could resist such a fine guy like that?

Normal POV

'Now where are Cid and Shera?' Yuffie thoughtto herselfShe wandered around the carpark in the rain, pushing a heavy trolley with one hand and the other hand, holding an umbrella. She looked like a lost puppy looking for a home.

Her cute black and white hello kitty umbrella shielded Yuffie from the rain. The strong winds blew hard against the umbrella as she struggled holding it up. She made an annoyed face and let go of the trolley to fix her umbrella. Unfortunately for Yuffie, she happened to be standing on a hill and that meant her trolley would… uh oh…

"Oh crap!" Yuffie yelled her lungs off as she chucked her umbrella away to the side and ran after the trolley speeding down the hill. It so happens that the umbrella hit a certain blonde guy on the back of his head.

"Watch it!" Cloud said turning around trying to find out who hit him in the head with an umbrella.

"Stop that trolley!" she yelled desperately. All that hard work she had gone through to get all the stuff inside the trolley would be wasted if it were gone. Luckily, Yuffie happened to be a fast runner and easily caught up to the trolley. She grasped onto the wet handles of the trolley and tried to stop it from continuing. However the ground was wet and she was having difficulty stopping the trolley.

BEEEP!

Out of nowhere, a car appeared from the right about to collide with Yuffie. Her small hands immediately let go of the trolley as she froze in fear; her bright eyes wide open.

SCREECH!

The brakes were slammed down and it skidded across the wet road about to hit Yuffie. Yuffie's hands shivered, her heart was racing so fast as flickers of terrible memories flashed into her mind. She was shaking so much she couldn't even move…she was going to die… 'Yuffie! Get out of the way!' her mother's voice screamed inside her mind. In an instant, the images of Yuffie's life stopped playing in her mind and she snapped back to reality. She had to move out of the way but it was too late...

She closed her eyes tightly anticipating her body to be smashed into smithereens by the car. Instead, her small body was pulled back by a strong arm cupped against her body as the car narrowly missed her. She tried to catch her breath, as she was still in shock at the near encounter of death.

"Careful there…you nearly died," A strong familiar voice made her eyes flicker open as she looked at her hero. The black and white hello kitty umbrella he was holding in his other hand covered half his face…'Hey, that's my umbrella' Yuffie thought.

"Thank you," she managed to say after gathering her breath.

"Next time, watch where you chuck your umbrella," he said lifting up the umbrella above her shielding her from the rain revealing the O' so handsome face smirking down at her. At the sight of his beautiful face, she immediately lit up realizing that he was the same guy from before that saved her from falling down in the store. In his arms, she felt like she was in heaven. She had never felt this way about anybody since Squall (her former tutor). Cloud then realized that he was still holding her and his face turned a slight shade of pink. He cleared his throat and pulled her up to her feet with ease as he handed back her umbrella.

"Oh yeah…where is my trolley?" Yuffie asked worriedly snapping back into the world of reality. She really didn't want to go get those items all over again.

"Here," answered the blonde 'hero' pushing the trolley towards her. 'Hero' was Cloud's nickname that Yuffie gave him since she didn't know his name. He seemed to be appearing whenever she needed him. Like a Hero saving the damsel in distress.

"Thanks…again," Yuffie said smiling.

"Um…we might wanna get outta the rain…"

"Yeah," Yuffie agreed. They walked back sharing the umbrella. She looked at his once-spiky blonde locks drooping down around his face making him look like a dangerous psychopathic killer… but at least he looked like a sexy one. She bit her bottom lip to hold back her laughter but it bursted out.

"What's so funny?" he asked curiously.

"Nuthin…" she lied trying to hide her broad grin.

"C'mon…tell me…" he pleaded with his innocent look. He hadn't mastered the look yet but he had a few tips from Sora.

"Your hair…it looks funny all wet," she laughed. 'Damn the rain…ruining my hair,' Cloud thought.

"Is that how you treat the guy who saved you…twice?"

"Oh sorry…Mr Hero," Yuffie said and Cloud chuckled at his 'nickname'.

"I'm Cloud,"

"I'm Yuffie," Yuffie grinned stretching her delicate hand out receiving a firm yet gentle handshake.

"Are you from HB?" Cloud asked.

"HB…?"

"Hollow Bastion"

"I just moved here from Twilight Town,"

"So you don't know the place here well…"

"Yeah…"

"So since you don't know the place well…" Cloud said turning a slight pink. "I could maybe…I dunno…maybe I could s-"

"Yo brat! what the f#k took your bratty ass so f#$king long?" a gruff man's voice from behind them interrupted Cloud. Cloud and Yuffie spun around looking where the loud voice had come from.

'Cid…great timing…" Yuffie thought to herself. "I'm gonna kill Cid…"

"That's my ride," Yuffie sighed. Cloud was still looking at the man holding a spear sitting next to a woman in the car. Cloud normally was not easily intimidated by people but the man looked like he could beat the crap outta 5 bears blindfolded especially the way the man held the spear.

"Um…Yuffie…are you sure?" Cloud asked slightly worried for Yuffie's sake.

"Don't worry Cloud, Uncle Cid is really a softy once you get to-" Yuffie's sentence was interrupted by Cid's loud cursing.

"We don't got all f#king day! Hurry up and get your bratty ass in the f#king car before I come out and shove my spear up yo' ass!" Cid yelled. Cloud gave Yuffie a concerned look. She just smiled and gave a little sweatdrop.

Shera gave Cid a stern look. After some quiet bickering between the two, Cid then gave up.

"Yuffie, please," Cid finally said with Shera triumphantly smiling next to him.

"See Cloud, he's nice…" Yuffie said unconvincingly unloading the items from the trolley to the boot of the car.

"Bye Yuffie,"

"See ya Cloudy," she said giving him a little wink as she hopped into the car. He stood there waving as it drove off.

'Cloudy?' She called me Cloudy. I can't believe she called me 'Cloudy'…not that I mind…She didn't even know me and she already gave me a nickname. Cloud Strife thought smiling to himself. He was still standing tall unaware of the droplets falling down on him. Maybe he didn't hate the rain so much after all…

----x.o.X.o.x----

A/N- I promise you the next chappie will hopefully by longer and better. Aren't you happy that I included Squall's name in here but he will come SOON in a few more chappies

The reason why Yuffie's memories came back to her when she was about to get hit by the car was that when you are about to die, apparently, your life flashes before you. Well, that's what I heard in a movie…

Meet the Neighbours sneak peek:
Barrett and Marlene get introduced. By the way…Squ- I meant Leon is not in the next chappie (Leon fans chuck plates angrily) BUT he will appear later in the chapters…I reckon Leon is cool (Leon fans cheer). Please review …If I get heaps of reviews I will update a lot quicker.
