All that the blonde haired boy could do was stare blankly at the object of his current disgust

All that the blonde haired boy could do was stare blankly at the object of his current disgust. He was still in a state of angered shock when he heard a small voice from behind him say; "I told you it could get worse."

Cloud immediately turned with fist ready and sent it flying right into the face of the man that had caused his misery. It made him feel a little bit better admittedly and as his fist lowered the red mark on the boys face helped his anger levels more.

"Err…okay um….before I pass out from that punch, let me explain this situation…" Cid propped himself up on a door and gave some half pained, half drunken looking looks before proceeding. "The principal lady said that you two still aren't getting along like bestest friends should!" He was definitely drunk. "So she ordered you guys to sleep in the same bed as well as all the other penalties!" He said with a very exuberant last note.

The boys stared at him for a moment with blank faces.

"Are you drunk?" Sephiroth asked cautiously.

"No, that's how the principal told me to say it." Cid said before he staggered out of the door.

A moment went by before the door opened again and Cid's face popped in on the bottom half of the door. "Oh and, beware, we have handcuffs if this gets worse." Then he was gone.

Cloud turned back to the bed that Sephiroth was situated on. "How is this going to work?"

"You take the floor tonight."

"So, what is this first person in gets the bed then?"

"Sure if you want to fight me for it."

"Not tonight."

With that Cloud took a pillow from the bed as well as a blanket from the closet in the bathroom, walked back to the main room and plopped down on the floor and promptly fell asleep.

Sephiroth had scarcely turned out the light before the boy was snoring softly, something he almost never did unless, as the now pink haired boy had learned, he was in a very deep sleep. He stretched and turned out the light before sprawling out on the small bed, with his right hand almost off the edge of the bed near the wall.

The boy's finger graced across something hard, it seemed like part of the bed until he began to move his hand and came to the edge where it turned and felt something like paper. He realized as well that part of it was a bit fuzzy. Taking a hold of whatever it was Sephiroth pulled it out to reveal a book, it was pink and absolutely torn apart leaving small tufts of pink fuzz in scarce quantities on it. The upperclassman raised an eyebrow at it for a moment before reading the title "Cloudy's diary." A smirk arose on his face and he opened it to the first page.

The lighting was bad so he turned on the light and the boy sleeping on the floor twitched for a moment and Sephiroth froze. Cloud relaxed and started snoring again and the boy continued his doings.

After a moment Sephiroth grew bored of what he was reading. "Well this is no good, the fact that he's using it won't be enough, and everything in here's boring." The pink haired boy shook his head and rummaged around in the droor next to the light and found a pen, it was purple. He began to write and a snakish grin came upon him.

For once the blonde haired boy wanted breakfast in the morning, he'd woken up hungry. He had also woken up before the pink haired mess of a boy which seemed a bit odd to him, but he shrugged it off, got dressed and proceeded on his way to the cafeteria.

On his way he noticed something odd, a growing number of boys he walked by had pink hair. For some reason as well he found that most of the females in Sephiroth's fan club had blue hair today.

Cloud got to the lunch room and it revealed that about half of the population either had pink or blue hair. They were all Sephiroth's followers.

"What?" The boy asked to no one in particular in astonishment as the president of Sephiroth's fan club walked by him.

"What, what? What's with everyone's pink hair? Well of course, Sephiroth's making a statement on how men are considered to be gay or feminine if they have an article of pink on them! He's taking a big step and saying something about it through his precious hair. Of course were all sad that his silver locks are gone but we support his cause!" She was passionate, Cloud gave her that.

"Err, okay? Then why isn't your hair pink?"

"Duhh! Blue goes great with pink!" With that the girl walked off in a bouncy manner to join the rest of the cult followers leaving Cloud wondering what kind of parents would curse the world by spawning that kind of follower.

With a blank face the blonde boy walked through the line and got his food along with a cup of coffee smothered with sugar. He then caught sight of Aeris sitting at a table sipping coffee and talking to a girl he didn't recognize. The boy walked over and sat down nodding hello to the one he did recognize.

"Hey! Sweet trick ya' played on Sephiroth! Man, pink hair, if I was tha' guy I'd not be caught in the light a' day!" Said the girl beside Aeris.

"Huh?" Cloud was totally blank for a moment wondering what this girl was going on about.

"Oh, don't worry, all of his lil' junkies think it's a statement but everyone else knows it was a killer prank!" With that the girl stood up and stuck out her hand as if for a high five, receiving nothing she smiled awkwardly and said goodbye before departing.

"What?" Cloud said looking to his now only companion.

"Don't ask me, I don't even know her name." Aeris said with a shrug. "She came over to me and started talking about the war between you guys."

"Alright then?"

Aeris giggled at Clouds grogginess before taking another sip of her tea.

The boy downed his coffee in about one gulp and looked to Aeris. "So what did you do yesterday?"

"Hmm? Oh, not much, I caught up on some reading and did some studying. It was peaceful since Tifa and Yuffie were out all day." She said with a smile before finishing off what was left of her tea and standing up. By this time Cloud had finished what was on his plate and stood with her. "Should we be off to class?"

"We've got some time, let's walk around for a bit." Cloud said and smiled with Aeris nodded consent and they started off in a pointless direction.

It was a quiet walk and Cloud enjoyed Aeris's company quite a lot, when they had gotten done with their walk it was about time to part ways. They had ended up near the dorms and most of the late risers were rushing off. The two stood facing each other with smiles, though something seemed a bit more awkward than it should have.

"We should get going." Aeris said, getting a nod from the boy.

They were just about to go when impulse took Cloud and he did something he wasn't expecting himself to do.

The blonde leaned down to hover about the brunette's forehead and planted a soft kiss upon it without thinking about anything. When he straightened back up he was being stared at in surprise before he realized what he had done.

Immediately he stepped back and avoided the girls gaze. "Err, well…I Should be.. Uhh-"

"Y-yes! Off we should be off!" Aeris cut him off and then hurried away leaving him to freeze in the hallway wondering why he had done what he did.

Eventually Cloud had made it to his first class and in a daze ran the track again and again; he was too lost in his scattered thoughts to realize that his room mate was behind him the whole time staring at him grumpily.

In their next class it was the same, Cloud couldn't concentrate on anything accept the happenings of the morning, But it wasn't until his third class that the thought that he would have to see her within another class dawned on him.

With that thought he began to search desperately for something to distract him, the class at hand wouldn't work. Though that answer was quickly found when he looked next to him and the pink haired boy was holding up something that he recognized to a page full of purple handwriting that looked like his own. Cloud couldn't help but reading what it said and his face went white.

Quickly after he read the words the bell for the passing period rang and Cloud stood up to look at the back of the notebook. Yes, it was his, though he hadn't written what was in it. "Sephiroth what did you do!?"

"I found something useful. It was so much fun to read."

"You mean write! I never wrote that in there!" Cloud said furiously.

"I'm sure our peers wouldn't believe that, your handwriting is just so much different than mine!"

"FORGERY!"

"It's my special skill. No one knows."

Red faced Cloud was silent for a moment as he sorted this new situation out in his head, obviously the pink haired boy wanted something or he would have just posted the forged papers onto something. Sephiroth wanted something from Cloud, and the blonde didn't have anything to counter this blackmail, so he had no choice. "What do you want?"

"Whatever I want, whenever I want it, my little slave-boy."

"No!"

"Unless you want this to get around, because I can do that if you want me to." Sephiroth said with a smirk, he knew he had Cloud trapped.

The shorter boy couldn't speak, for he knew he would have to agree and his pride didn't permit any type of surrender. Sephiroth knew the blonde was defeated though and with that his smirk grew.

"Give me your cell phone."

"Why!?"

"I need to get a hold of you when your not around, if you don't know who I am how can you know to come to me? Besides I need your number for this as well." It was clear that Sephiroth felt completely in charge, and Cloud very badly wanted to hurt the upperclassman, but knew that it would end badly, so he handed over the cell phone and waited.

When he got his cell phone back, and looked at the time they both had to run to their next class.

During the middle of a rant from the teacher to quiet everyone down it dawned on Cloud what he had done. With that complete realization Cloud lost control of his neck and his head slammed down on the desk, it was rather loud and interrupted the teachers ranting.

"Mr. Strife! Head up!" Nothing happened, and the teachers face became red. "Cloud Strife, did you not hear what I said?" The man walked to Clouds desk and loomed over it as if he were going to hurt his pupil, instead he lifted the boys head. It revealed Clouds eye's to be open though it was apparent that he had left the building. This seemed to concern the teacher. "Mr. Strife?" The man gave Cloud a shake and nothing happened.

The class room stirred up with talk and clatter concerning Cloud.

Sephiroth watched the scene unfold silently, with a devilish smile.


A/N: If anyone's freaking out because they think this is going to turn into some romantic thing, it's not, just a little bit of dating shinnanagins!..if I can even call it that.
