Chapter 2: Meeting him

"It is because... of...ahh...it is nothing now..." She looked at her watch.

"Time to go! It is 10 already.. He should be home by now..."

you nodded n returned to the bar without a single word to Tifa from your mouth. After you two reached home (the bar), you put the shopping bags which Tifa n you bought when went for walk. There also you left your purse on the table.

"sis, you can go sleeping, i know you r tried today. I'm going to wash some dishes. Then I'll sleep too"

"no no, let me do them!" you stopped Tifa but she refused.

Tifa" no, sis you need to rest. Come on. Have some sleep! And even you sleep early, you don't wake up early either! Ha ha!"

You laughed too! "i guess, you r right! Ok. Good night then."

Tifa smiled n nodded. You went upstairs, headed to your bedroom, you didn't say good night to the kids as you realized that they have already asleep. You were in your bedroom, ready to sleep but then you remembered your purse on the table, you left. Your phone was in there n you made an alarm! You decided to take it back as you didn't want to disturb others if the alarm rang. you quickly walked along the hall n turned to the corner. (When you turn the corner, there r stairs) but instead of it, you walked into someone's chest! you surprised n looked up saw it was Cloud!

"ah! Clare. i m so sorry. You ok?"

You were falling (staring) in his blue eyes when he held your shoulders. Then you shocked n looked away from his beautiful blue eyes.

"Ah i m sorry. It is my fault. Running and didn't notice you were already home."

"well, i just got home." He said with a small smile. Then "it is late now. Good night Clare, have some rest. "He walked pass.

You left gazing at him. You thought "Damn. He is so cute!"

You walked downstairs, it is all dark now. You walked down the stairs but unfortunately you slipped n fell to the floor. Someone quickly ran down the stairs and opened the lights. It was Cloud again. "Clare!" he held you in his arms "Are you ok? Did you hurt your legs?"

"um... no..." you tried to stand up but you couldn't.

"you surely hurt yourself Clare. Let me help you" he held you in a bridal style n let you laid on your bed. He examined your left leg.

"wait a minute. I will get some bandages your leg is bleeding a little."

You just nodded n waited for him. In a minute, he came back with a first aid cit. He started to put some medicine. You let out a moan as it hurt.

"sorry! Just hold on a second. Nearly finish." he stopped putting medicine n wraped your leg with bandages.

"There. It's ok now."

You were gazing him but you said thanks to him.

Cloud touched your shoulders. Warmth from his hands made you blushed lightly.

He said" never mind. It is not your fault from falling down the stairs! Because it is dark! But be careful Clare! Watch your steps!" he looked into your charming black eyes.

You smiled" i will! You looked tired Cloud... how about getting rest?"

Cloud" ok. You too! See you in the morning"
