Chapter 10: Enough?!

Two Months Later

Leon glanced around, the curtains blew from the light breeze, while the sun shown brightly into the room. Leon nuzzled back down on his pillow.He pulled his blanket over him feeling slightly cooler. He looked at the T.V .watching five guys set fire to objects in a house, was not to entertaining to him. Idiots... Leon sighed they came in groups. Leon slowly got up shaking the goosebumps off of him self. He walked towards the kitchen. He glanced towards the stairs as he passed by them. Riku and Axel were sitting on the steps quietly talking. Leons eyebrow arched. He slowly walked towards them. Leon stopped against the wall his siblings still hadnt noticed him.

"I always wondered.."

"About what, Riku?"

"The pain of losing a loved one.."

"Yeah..."

"Its gotta be tough living with no mom."

"You said it!"

"It must have been tough for Squall."

"Yeah, I mean his mother passed before he even got to know her."

"I think I would die if my mother died!"

"Yeah I think I would to."

Leon leaned against the wall. Listening contently to the boys conversation.

"What about if we lost our dads!?"

"Im not sure ,Riku."

"Im pretty sure that I would be mad and depressed."

"Yeah, me to."

"But what could possibly take our dads away?" said Riku smiling slightly,"I mean look at them,your dad's to clever and can charm anyone and-

"and your dad is huge,smart and intimadating!"

"Exactly Axel!"

--

Leon sighed, he could feel the tears brimming. He couldnt tell anyone about the nightly expierences or they could lose the trust and honor for their dads and then lose to the law. Leon pushed off from the wall ,slowly, walking away. He stopped at the kitchen door ,hearing vocies. Leon stepped closer, he pressed his ear against the solid oak.He quieted his breathing and closed his eyes.

"That bitch stole my car and your just going to let him off easy!?"

"Yes,the only thing hell have is a grounding and hes not a bitch."

"What!" said Leons mom,"You wont even hit him!"

"No."

"Why not!?"

"Do you understand that I could go to jail for that!"

"Yes ,but hes an awful kid ,we should just send his stupid ass away!"

"No!"

Leon heard their voices fade as the door opposite to the one that he was standing in front of, opened. They were in the garage now,still fighting. Leon stepped away from the door. Not wanting to hear the fighting.He took a step back and tried to turn away but ran into something or more like someone. Leon looked up Sephiroth smiled back down at him ,evily. Reno appeared at his side a smirk dashing his features. Shit.

"Hello, Squall."

Leon pushed past them trying to calm his nerves.Both men stood there ,surprized to say the least. Leon was heading for the front door. He passed Riku and Axel. Both boys were quiet. Leon had forgot both where there. There fathers hadn't noticed them as they had walked in. Reno threw the first hit. His fist slammed into the back of Leon's head. Leon fell slighly forward clutching his head, his vision blurring.

Leon turned and kick Reno in the face.Reno slammed into the wall. Sephiroth stepped up. Leon went to to hit Sephiroth but was stopped when his fist was caught. Sephiroth smiled and hit him ,and he hit Leon hard. Leon pulled away holding his mouth.He brought his hand away seeing the blood that was now decorating his glove. Leon tried a roundhouse kick but was stopped when Sephiroth's hand grabbed his ankle.

Leon knew this one was going to hurt.Sephiroth flipped him. Leon's head crashed into the wall. Leon looked up his vision was starting to darken. Leon heard the front door open.

"Leon!?" the voice registered it was Cloud's, "What the hell did you do to him?!"

Leon felt his head being lifted up.Leon hadn't noticed his eyes had slide shut. Cloud was roughly pulled away from Leon. His head fell back down to the ground. Leon felt a boot slam onto his chest."You little bitch."

The air was pushed out of his lungs. Leon's hands grabbed a hold of the boot and pushed away it didn't move. The pressure on his chest was getting worse.

"GET AWAY FROM ME!" It was Cloud.

Leon had to get up, he had to. He wasnt going to let Cloud go through this. Reno glanced down at Leon his face contorted in pain. He heard the front door swing open, again. Leon heard a crack. It was his ribs. He heard someone screaming the voice didn't register. But somehow he knew it was himself. Suddenly the pressure on his chest left. Leon heard someone crash to the ground. He felt his head get lifted up again. Leon opened his eyes seeing Cloud. Cloud's shirt was slightly ripped and his face looked flustered. Leon glanced towards the ground Reno was laying there and was starting to get up. He glanced towards the stairs noticing Riku and Axel. No, Leon couldnt believe it, he forgot they were there. Leon looked back up at Cloud.

"Are... you alright... Cloud?" he was breathless.

"I'm fine I'm more worried about you." Cloud's expression didn't change. Cloud placed a kiss on Leon's forehead.

Leon heard someone else slam to the ground. Zack walked up and knelt next to Cloud. The only injury he sustained was a bloody lip and a bruised cheek. Zack gave a small smile. Leon felt the hot tears roll down his face.

''Ohh Leon."

Cloud cradled his head tears starting to spill over the brim of his eyes. Cloud glanced at Leons shirt. Leon knew he was bleeding. Zack had already took at his cell phone and was dialing 9-1-1. Zack walked towards the kitchen door and the next thing Leon knew Laguna was kneeling down next to his head. A deep frown caressed his features. The sirens could be heard. Leon was loaded onto a strecher.

An offiicer walked up towards the family and asked "What happened?"

Before anyone could speak Leon said "I fell down the stairs."

The officier looked at Leon then at the stairs. He sighed then nodded. Cloud looked at him, confused. Leon sighed he would have to tell him later. Only one person was aloud to go with him the one person was Cloud. Zack said he would be there later. He had to finish some business.

The Traverse Hospital

"Leon you know what you are?"

"No tell me Cloud."

Cloud brought his head closer to Leon's "A liar."He said it so casualy.

Leon smiled."I know."

Cloud glanced at the door. He traced his finger acrossed Leons lips. Cloud brought his lips down on Leons. It was a quick loving kiss. Leon smiled. Cloud placed his hand on Leons. They would get through this no matter what.

Near Leon's House

Sephiroth stopped at the red light while rubbing his bruzied cheek. Reno glanced up at him from the passanger seat.

"Does it hurt?"

"Yeah,the kid hit me pretty hard."

Both men had seen medical attention. Two small white bandages formed an x on Sephiroth's cheek.Reno had a split lip but was fine other than that injury as was Sephiroth.

"Who was that kid anyway?"

''Which one?"

"Well, both of them, the blondie and the raven haired one."

"Well, I know the blonde is Leon's boyfriend named Cloud...but I'm not sure about the other one... Leon never talked about him."

"Yeah well the kid's got one hell of a hit!"

"I know for a minute I thought he broke my jaw!"

"He'll be a problem."

"I know."

As the light turned green Sephiroth and Reno contined there talk. Sephiroth turned into the drive of Laguna's house. He took the keys out and got out.

--

Zack was talking to Laguna when he heard the front door creak open. He glanced towards the hall seeing both Sephiroth and Reno.

"Well just tell me when Leon gets out,alright."

"I will Zack, you take care."

"Will do."

Zack turned on his heels and walked towards both men. He wore black combat boots that zipped up to his mid calf. His pants were also black, as baggy as they were they fit nicely. Two black belts hung above his hips. As for his shirt a jet black wife-beater showing off his hard lean well-built muscle his other outfit, with the sleevless turtle neck and the armor with the leather straps was hanging up in his closet, black gloves covered his hands. His hair was short, he had gotten it cut and donated the rest to ''Locks of Love''. His violet eyes shone brightly. As did the diamond stud in his left ear.

Sephiroth glared at the teen as he passed. Zack reached his arm out as Sephiroth passed clutching his right forearm.

"You stay away from them.'' Zack glanced at Reno.

"Both of you."

"Or what?!"Sephiroth stepped towards the teen.

"Or youll regret it."

"Really?!"Sephiroth answered an amused smile, snaking its way onto his face. Reno leaned towards Sephiroth whispering into his ear,"You know hes probably just as good as Leon if not better."

"Yeah, you could be right."

Zack had let go of Sephiroths arm. He turned towards the door and was about to walk when he felt a hand grasp his arm,hard. Zack turned and looked at Sephiroth trying to shrug the hand off. Sephiroth stepped closer to Zack. Zack glared at Sephiroth. Sephiroth took another step towards Zack. Getting to close to his liking Zack took one step back feeling his back touch the wall. Sephiroth took another step he towered over Zack or seemed to.Their chests touched.

Zack looked up into Sephiroth cat like green eyes"What do you want?"

"I want a lot of things but this can be settled over a contest."

"Contest?"

"Yes...Do you have any skill in sword fighting?"

"Yeah,so when will this contest take place?"

"Tommorow... noon."

"Alright, what does the winner get."

"Well, if I win you have to do what ever I say."

"For how long?"

''How ever long I want."

"And if I win then you have to leave Cloud and Leon alone...forever."

"Deal.''

Zack turned again to leave. Sephiroth still hadnt released his arm. Zack looked at Sephiroth. He pressed Zack against the wall. Reno watched intrested in what was happening. Sephiroth brought his head close to Zacks ear. "Ill see you tommorow." He brought his head back a sick smile on his face. Zack had a feeling he meant it in another way, than the contest, a shiver snaked its way down his back. Zack walked out of the house he turned back to see Sephiroth watching him go. Zack jogged down the side walk. He would never admitt to it but Sephiroth scared him badly. He had to win if not he didn't want to think what would happen to Cloud and Leon.

--

Leon blinked the sleep in his eyes didnt help. Leon heard the door slam into the wall. Meaning someone had entered the room. Leon glanced towards the door seeing Cloud walking towards him. Leon smiled. Cloud sat down in the chair next to him. Offering him a hot chocolate. Leon took it and sipped it.

"Um...Leon."

"Yeah Cloud."

"I invited a few friends to come and see you."

"Really that's sweet."

"Your okay with it..."

"Yeah of course I would be."

"Cool."

"Oh my god!"

"What!?"

"I haven't been to school for like ever, I'm so left behind I'm going to flunk out."

"No you won't I'll help you."

"Really."

"Yeah I mean we are like...boyfriends."

Leon reached out grabbing Cloud's shirt and pulled him towards him hugging Cloud tightly. There lips crashed together it seemed like an automatic response. Leon wrapped his arms around Cloud's shoulders while Cloud wrapped his around Leon's slim but muscular waist.

--

Yuffie ran through the halls looking for the room number Cloud had told her. She skidded to a halt as she saw the room number 235 swing by. Aerith, Tifa, Roxas and Sora followed close behind.Yuffie grabbed the knob and turned it. The door flew open. She squealed this was better than the picture she saw on the internet. Cloud was leaning over Leon while avoiding the medical equiepment. Both teens were flustered and breathless part of Leon's shirt was on his shoulder. Cloud glanced at Yuffie immeditatly starting to turn a darker red. Leon was also blushing.Cloud pulled away from Leon. But kept his hand on Leon's.

"Damn it!"

"What's wrong Yuffie?!"gasped Aerith.

"I should have brought my sketch book." she sighed.

"Yuffie!" sighed Aerith.

"Well...this is Leon."

"Hi Leon."

"Hi."said Leon smiling.

"What happened?"

"I..um..fell down the stairs..."

"That must've hurt."

"Yeah it did." Leon glanced up at Cloud his stare that had setted in him was still there it hadn't went away.

Cloud leaned towards Leon and whispered"You better tell me the real reason why your lieing."

"I will Cloud."

--

Zack jogged up towards a huge old victorian house. It was painted a dark purple and had a black roof and black shutters. A huge black metal 8ft tall gate and fence stood around the house making it look more like a castle than a normal house. Zack jumped the gate and ran passed the gargoyles that stood at the top of the porch. He lived alone. He had parents but they both were so busy with work he saw them only on the holidays. He had no siblings.

His parents were filthy rich but Zack could have cared less about the money.Him and his parents could have been living in a trailer. It wouldn't have mattered to him as long as they were with him. it wouldn't matter. His parents missed his birthday every year and when they were home they only wanted to be with each other and left him out. They didn't mean to but it just sort of happened. They would go out when he wasn't home and he would come back and be alone.

Zack walked through the front door. He walked through the massive hall. It held pictures of him and his parents. Zack passed a black and silver vase. He would never admitt to this but he thought Sephiroth was capital H O T..hot. The guy pratically screamed sex god. But what he did to his friends was aweful and since the only thing to keep him company was his friends he couldn't and wouldn't let them be hurt. Zack would help anyone. Zack had boyfriends and girlfriends in the past that made the loneliness disappear..

There was Angeal, Genisis ,Cloud, Aerith, Tifa and Yuffie the one that lasted the longest was, and the last was Angeal. But he disappeared one day, everyone says he moved but he never said good-bye. And that hurt the most. Zack always knew when enough was enough with his boyfriends and girlfriends, he was still a virgin and planned to stay that way till he met the right person.

He reached into the fridge grabbing a water and walked into the living room. He sat down on the soft couch. He took a drink of his water. He was thinking. He had no idea if he could win. Maybe Sephiroth was a pushover and wasn't great at sword fighting.Or maybe pigs would fly when that ever happened, the guy was a pro and knew almost everything about sword fighting and Zack knew it.The possiblities seemed so endless he sighed. Sephiroth the name sounded so familar. Zack stood up, it didn't matter. He walked towards the stairs.

He took another drink of his water as he went up. He opened his door and walked into his room. It was huge the room was painted black with gray swirls that went into a vortex sprakles that reasembled stars dotted his walls. Zack had three pictures on his walls;one was him leaning against a stone wall looking towards the camera;two was of Zack and Angeal, in the picture Angeal had him pinned to the ground both were looking up at the camera; three was of Zack and his parents, they had went on vacation he wasn't sure where.

Zack had a bathroom to himself and a walk-in-closet. Zack walked towards his closet. He opened the doors that led to it. On one side he had most of his clothes on the other side he had his sleevless turtle neck and his armor with the leather straps and nestled on his wall was his beloved buster sword. Zack traced his fingers over it.It was the only thing other than the photo that he had a Angeal. Zack sighed, it hurt to think about those memories. He picked it up and walked towards his door. He ran down the stairs and sprinted to the back yard. He took the sword off his back and started to imagine the enimeies.

He slashed left and jumped right. He back-stepped and slashed forward. Zack imagined Sephiroth .He ran at Sephiroth bringing the sword up. Zack slashed side-ways while Sephiroth dodged. Since Sephiroth was a big guy, Zack imagined his speed slow. Zack cut into Sephiroth's side. A pained expression came over his face. Zack slashed again, jumping into the air as he did. He landed with a thud. Zack turned around and glanced back the wind kicked up making his hair and the trees' branches wip in the wind. The imaginary Sephiroth layed on the ground K.O.ed. Zack walked forward he looked through the gate, through the forest behind his house and watched the sun set sink behind the trees and hills.
