The simplicity of a rose: I don't wanna cry

That night Kadaj couldn't help but cry after what his parents did. This was a person that he loved. Did gender really matter? He sat there crying until he could hear tapping at the window. He looked out the window and saw Cloud.

"Cloud, what are you doing here?" He said in between tears.

"I love you, and I won't stop seeing you regardless of what your parents say."

"That's so sweet." He said kissing him.

"But really, you have to leave; after all, if they find you, I'm afraid what they'll do."

"Fine, I'll leave, see ya!"

Kadaj sometimes wondered why Cloud was the way he was. That night he slept oddly thinking about what would happen tomorrow. Little did he know what would happen tomorrow.

At school the next day Kadaj and Cloud were sitting there talking until a strange person came up to them.

"Cloud, I haven't you in such a long time."

"Umm... who are you?" He said examining the person.

"You don't recognize me silly, I'm Zack."

"Zack, I can't believe it's you!" He immediately hugged him.

"Where have you been, I never thought you'd come back!"

"Well I'm here; if you're wondering I've been away... I needed time to regroup after we moved away from you, but I'm here to stay."

"That's so good, I'm so happy you're here."

The bell rang to go to the next class.

"I'll see you later Cloud."

"Bye, it was nice seeing you again."

While he and Kadaj were walking back he could have swore he saw Zack blow him a kiss.

"So, who was that who you kept on talking to and completely ignored me."

"Aww... is someone getting jealous." He said playfully pinching his cheek.

"Cut it out, I'm not jealous." he said not looking him in the eye.

That day in class Mr. Thomas was teaching the usual boring lesson. Kadaj noticed something very disturbing how Zack passed Cloud a note and he was laughing about it.

"Kadaj, are you paying attention?" Mr. Thomas asked.

"Yes, I am Sir."

"Then please answer the question, why do you think Queen Victoria married one of her cousins?"

"Well Victoria got an explicit note from her cousin Albert and the rest is history."

"So you're insinuating that this note contained sexual content and she fell for it?"

"Of course."

"Thanks for your input." He said looking a bit confused.

At the end of class Cloud was trying to walk with him.

"So what was that all about in history class?"

"I don't know, you tell me."

Kadaj tried to walk away but Cloud turned him around.

"Look, the note asked if we could all go to the club tonight."

"Hmm... that depends..."

"Come on, please?"

"Fine."

"Thanks... I love you."

"I love you too..."

He noticed that Cloud didn't even kiss him. When Kadaj got home he was extremely angry that Zack had practically taken Cloud away from him. As he quickly got dressed and walked to this club that Cloud wanted him to go to. Once he got in he heard the song me against the music playing. He saw Cloud and Zack... dancing together. After the song finished Cloud came up to him.

"Hey, I didn't see you."

"Sorry, I was standing near the bar."

"Okay then, I'll see ya around."

This made Kadaj extremely mad how he could just leave him like that. As he looked out from the top of the balcony looking at Zack and Cloud still dancing.

"Don't they look great?"

Kadaj looked over to see Vincent.

"You and Cloud never gonna work, now Zack and Cloud, gonna work, you have no point in trying."

Vincent walked away seeing Kadaj's eyes get glassy. He noticed Cloud coming and turned away.

"Hey."

He noticed no answer.

"Look we were just dancing."

"And what, his ass just suddenly fell into your hands."

"No, nothing is going on between us."

"Yeah I bet..."

"Look, I'm sorry..."

Kadaj's eyes just seemed to look away.

"Come on; let's go back to my house."

"Fine..."

The sad part Zack was still with them. When they finally got back to Cloud's house he sat down on the couch was Zack quickly accompanied him.

"I'll be right back... I need to go get some drinks out of the kitchen." Kadaj said walking off to the kitchen. Once he was out of sight Zack quickly moved closer to Cloud.

"Cloud I came back for closure, I still love you..."

Zack leaned over to kiss Cloud, surprisingly he didn't retract. He kept kissing him.

"Hey guys, I finished making the..." Kadaj's eyes widened as he saw Cloud and Zack in a steamy kissing session.

When Cloud heard a glass shatter he looked up to see Kadaj crying.

"Kadaj...it's not what you think..."

"How could you?" Tears coming uncontrollably from his eyes. He ran out of the house.

Cool, real cliffhanger. Oddly enough I was listening to some sad Mariah Carey songs like prisoner, love takes time, and I don't wanna cry, hence the title of this chapter, I hope everyone enjoyed and I'll update soon. See ya!
