Ten

Cloud groaned as soon as he heard the annoying buzz of his alarm, he tightened his grip on Tifa's waist and buried his face in her hair.

"Cloud... Shut that thing off..." Tifa said groggily. He hummed in response but didn't move at all. Tifa sighed. Just then, Mrs. Strife knocked on the door.

"Cloud honey? Tifa sweetie? It's time to wake up, you don't want to be late." She called out from the door.

"Yes mom... We're up..." Cloud said lazily which made the older woman giggle.

"Breakfast is ready. And it's not breakfast in bed I'm talking about, If you know what I mean..." Then she giggled which made Tifa chuckle and Cloud bolt up in his bed.

"Seriously?" Cloud whispered as Tifa sat up slowly while she smiled brightly. Mrs. Strife opened the door with a smile on her face.

"Good morning lovebirds." She said as she appraoched them, she was wearing a business suit which made his son raise his eyebrows.

"Where you going mom?"

"Oh, well, I have a meeting with my new supplier in Kalm, so I'll be away for 3 days." She said as she sat on the bed.

"Oh..." Cloud said.

"And I'm happy that Tifa could accompany you while I'm gone." She smiled at the young brunette who smiled back. "And of course those chocola-"

"Mom, okay..." He nervously laughed. "That's enough." Tifa giggled behind her hand.

"Okay, that's settled then. I'll call you okay, be safe and don't burn the house down." She leaned forward to kiss her son's forehead. "Be good." Then she leaned forward again to kiss Tifa's forehead this time which shocked the brunette. Then they smiled at each other.

"Take care mom..." Tifa sweetly said which made the woman smile.

"You too sweetheart. I'm off now alright?" Then she stood up and went out the door. Then the lovers looked at each other and smiled.

"Now that she mentioned it, what's your mom's business?" Tifa asked.

"Oh... Uhh.. She owns a cafe."

"Really? Which one?"

"Seveth heaven..." Cloud said casually which made Tifa's eyes widen.

"Seventh heaven?! That Seventh heaven?!" She smiled. "I only been there once because that cafe is fancy and a poor orphan like me could not afford it." Cloud's face softened when he heard that. "That's amazing..."

"I'll bring you something from the cafe later okay?"

"Thank you Cloud..." She smiled. "You are totally rich but you don't really show it huh?" Tifa said with a smirk.

"Well, my mom's really down to earth and doesn't really like showing off." Cloud said sheepishly. Tifa giggled.

"Well, I can see that... We should get re-" But Tifa didn't get to finish her sentence hen Cloud leaned forward and took her mouth unto his.

Everyone turned their heads when thety saw Cloud and Tifa walking hand in hand on their way to school. Tifa were getting death glares from every single girl, while Cloud was getting the same from the male students. It was clear the everyone were against their relationship, except for the two people that was approaching them with big smiles on their faces.

"Well well well, not bad spiky." Yuffie winked at Cloud who blushed and scratched the back of his head. Tifa giggled.

"Well... I..." He looked over to his left to see his beautiful girlfriend who looked back at him, and they smiled at each other sweetly. Then they all went over to their lockers to retrieve what they needed for the day. They were walking down the halls before the bell rang, Yuffie was whispering something to Vincent's ear then they laughed while Tifa was showing something from her phone to Cloud which made him laugh as well, but their fun was cut short when a certain someone they didn't want to bump to at the moment was walking towards them, they all stopped on their tracks when they all finally noticed.

Walking with hips swaying dangerously, her ponytail whipped left and right as she gracefully stride the halls, Aeris Gainsburough's playful smirk and unblinking gaze just says she meant business.

And by business it means Cloud.

She stopped right in front of him to wrap an arm around his neck and leaned forward, but she didn't got to do what she intended when Tifa pulled her ponytail downward while Yuffie pulled Cloud away from the green eyed beauty. Aeris yelped in pain at what Tifa did to her, as soon as she recovered, she slapped the brunette full in the face, Tifa didn't hesitate to fight back and clobbered Aeris down to the ground and started to slap her from left to right while the green eyed girl pulled on her hair.

"Tifa!" Cloud yelled as he hurriedly went towards his girlfriend to pull her off the fight with the help of Yuffie and Vincent.

"What do you think you're doing BITCH?!" Yuffie yelled. "Can't keep it in your pants, couldn't you?!" Yuffie went over to Aeris to start pushing her by the shoulders as soon as the green eyed girl stood up.

"She attacked me first." She said while she pushed Yuffie back, who was being stopped by Vincent.

"Yes, because you fucking tried to kiss her boyfriend asshole!" Yuffie yelled back.

"Yuffie enough." Vincent tried to stop her.

"What is goin' on 'ere foo's?!" Their gym teacher Mr. Wallace's voice boomed over the halls, everyone who were watching the fight went on their ways to avoid trouble. "You bunch are causin' trouble this early eh? To the principal's office, NOW!"

"Fuck..." Yuffie whispered.

"Hey... You okay?" Cloud gently cupped Tifa's face with both hands to see her face, he saw that her lip was cracked, he winced at the sight. "You're bleeding..."

"I'm fine..." She whispered. They could hear Aeris scoffing as she walked past them. Just then, a tall, raven haired man with spikes almost same with Cloud's, emerged from the corner, it looked like he was running and was panting when he stopped and carefully watched the group.

"What happened here?" He inquired as she ran towards the group, and with that, Aeris suddenly started to run towards him while she cried, which earned a perplexed look from Yuffie.

"What the hell?" She said out loud.

"Zack! She..." Aeris pointed towards Tifa. "She attacked me! She suddenly pulled my hair and-"

"Are you fuc-" Yuffie stopped when she saw Mr. Wallace glaring at her. "Freaking kidding me?! You tried to kiss Cloud that's why yo-"

"Wa-wa-wa-wait? Who tried to kiss who?" Zack asked urgently as he strode forward threatengly, leaving Aeris behind him

"Aeris tried to kiss Cloud right here, who happened to be my friend's boyfriend, that's why she attacked your cheating girlfriend!" Yuffie yelled at the raven haired guy who was taken aback and stopped at his tracks.

"Don't fuck with me-" But Zack was cut off.

"I thought I told you to go to the principal's office?! NOW!" Mr. Wallace yelled again which made them all walk forward to follow him. Zack didn't say another word, but as Cloud passed by him, he gave the blond his most menacing glare.

During their time in the principal's office, all Aeris did was cry and act like she was the victim while Tifa kept on defending herself, but it didn't matter because both of them were suspended for three days because of their actions, Tifa cried her eyes out when she met with Cloud outside the room, who hugged her and tried to comfort her, while Yuffie kept on glaring at the green eyed beauty as she left the office. Tifa and Aeris were sent to go home for the day, Cloud accompanied her to her locker to get her things, but she got the surprise of her life when pieces of paper started to fly everywhere when she opened it, all of them sporting insults such as 'Whore' or 'Slut', Cloud frantically gathered as much as he could while Tifa just stood there all rigid, and eyes filled with fury.

From the far left corner of the hall, hidden from their sight, a green eyed girl smirked as she leaned on the wall with her arms crossed in front of her, watching the brunette that was standing still while the blonde struggled with the mess. She chuckled then pushed herself up and turned around to walk away.

You'll be mine.
