A/N: YEA! Today was my last day of school, so Summer has officially started! That means more updating stories, so you should all be happy! Any who, this chapter might be a little crappy, so I apologize. I just wrote it as I went along, which would explain the crappiness that is crap. Well, I wrote this this morning before I went to school, where I went and said goodbye to a lot of good friends that aren't going to the same high school as me, so there was a lot of water works! Yea, but enough about my sad and happy day, and….off to the amazingly awesome story that you guys love so much!

Disclaimer: Today, Reno shall be helping me with the disclaimer. Take it away Reno!

Reno: *Sigh* twilight girl456 doesn't own anything, which includes me. That is actually something I thank Gaia for…

Me: Hey! I'm right here! I am the authoress of this story, and I have the power to erase characters, so you might want to watch your mouth!

Reno: *doesn't really care*

Me: enjoy the story while I go and 'accidentally' push Reno off a cliff!


I sighed in content as the warm water from the shower hit my body, washing away all the dirt that had found its way on my face. After at least 10 minutes in the shower, I finally turned the water off, and grabbed my towel, stepping out of the shower and drying myself off. After I felt pretty dry, I made the move to grab my clothes, when I realized that I only had my clothes that I had worn today…which meant that I would have to…oh Gaia….ask Reno to borrow some of his clothes.

Making sure the towel was wrapped around me extra, extra tight, and that everything was covered, I opened the door, and poked my head out, looking for Reno.

"Reno?" I called out, not getting an answer. "Reno, you there?" When no one answered the second time, I carefully walked out, holding the towel securely. I reached the living room, where Reno was sprawled out, sleeping.

I gently poked his shoulder. "Hey, Reno…wake up." I gently began to shake him.

"What?" He groaned, opening his eyes to see me.

"I don't have any clothes to sleep in…get off your ass and find me some!" I said, grabbing his hand and trying to pull him up. I epically failed.

"No…"

"YES!" I shouted, tugging on him one more time, and this time succeeding. I pushed him towards the hall and to wherever his bedroom was, letting him find the door and opening it.

He dug around his drawers for sometime, looking for a shirt and pants. In the end, I was wearing an oversized t-shirt and sweatpants that were very big. I resulted in tightening the drawstring on the pants, and rolling the legs up to my knees. I was finally comfy.

"Thank you!" I said, patting him on the shoulder.

"Yea…besides, you look good in my clothes." I could hear the smirk in his voice, causing me to roll my eyes.

'The same flirt as I remember.' I thought to myself.

"So…where are you gonna make me sleep?" I asked, my hands clasped behind my back.

"On the couch." I felt somewhat saddened that he wasn't going to give his bed up for me, and take the couch instead. But, I didn't say anything, and just went along with him to help fix the couch into a bed.

The couch was probably the one thing that was the dirtiest in his house.

I couldn't stand it….the couch is sure comfy to sit on, but sleeping on it is the worst choice somebody could make. I had a hard time getting to sleep right away, but eventually, I found my way to dreamland.

Then I was upset that I did.

Dream:

"But, why do you want me to go out now?" I asked my mother as she hurriedly pushed me towards the door.

"I think you could use some fresh air, sweetie. Go sit on the swings at the park. You might be glad that you got the fresh air." She said, continuing to push me out.

"Well, if you say so…" I knew there was something wrong that she wasn't telling me, but I didn't bother to pester her on it. So, I just complied, waving and saying bye.

"See you soon, Sky."

That was the last time I saw my mother.

The next thing I saw, was me at the park.

People…screaming and running…the plate falling…

No, no, no! This isn't real! THIS ISN'T REAL!

'Oh, but it is. You saw it with your very own eyes.' Some voice said to me.

No! NO!NO!NO!NO! Everything cant be gone! Everyone cant be gone!

'But everything, and everyone is gone.'

No….then, that means….No! NOOOOOOOOO!

End dream:

"NO!" I shot up from the couch, panting and covered in sweat. I just figured it was just a really bad nightmare…that none of this was real.

But…that's when I finally realized something…it did. And…the hole in my heart, became a big open wound of pain and sadness. Everyone did die…and everything…was gone. And I was just now beginning to realize it. My mother was gone…my friends were gone…everyone I knew…was gone…and I was all that was left. And through all this realization, the sadness only grew. Quietly, I kicked the covers off of me, and stood up, walking down the hall to the last door on the left that was open. Quietly, I walked into the room that held my sleeping friend, making my way towards his gigantic bed.

Carefully, I pulled down the covers on the side that he wasn't on, and quietly crawled in next to him, hoping I didn't make a sound. But, he began to stir, and I began to panic.

"Ughhh, Sky, what are you doing in here? What's wrong?" Reno asked, taking note to the sad expression on my face.

"N-nothing….just a bad dream…and your couch is too lumpy to my liking." I tried to smile, but by the look on Reno's face when he saw me try, it was probably more of a grimace.

"Don't lie to me, Sky…tell me what's wrong." Reno said, scooting closer to look at me better.

In my entire life, there have only been two occasions that I have cried for more than one day. The first being when I heard about my dad's death, and the second being when Reno got caught and taken away. And right now, there was about to be a third.

"There all gone." I said, my voice quivering. "There all gone!" And for the first time today, I began to cry for the loss of all the people. "Everyone is gone! My friends! MY mom! EVERYONE!" I clutched onto my pillow, and buried my face in it as I cried.


Reno laid there, watching the girl weep into her pillow over the loss of those she knew and loved. He felt a pang in his chest. One that held sadness, and the other one that held guilt. He knew that if she found out that he was the one that dropped the plate, then she would never forgive him. And that scared Reno. To never be forgiven by the one girl he ever really, truly liked. He was her friend, and she was his too. To even say that the friendship would be ruined, was like thinking about a dead puppy. And that was a very sad and awful thing to think about.

And technically, it wasn't even his fault! He was the one who was just sent there to make sure that no one tried to stop the bomb. And that's what almost cost him his life. Just to think about it made his injured arm and back hurt. If anyone was to be of blame for the death of so many, it should be Shinra, not him, Reno Sinclair. But, why did he feel so guilty still?

Reno scooted closer to his crying friend, and wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her to his chest.

"Shhh….it's ok….Its ok." He cooed, gently stroking her hair as she cried into his chest. He only held her and comforted her as she let out all her sadness. She was broken, and she would be for awhile.

But he was going to fix her wounded heart.
