"Soooo…."mused Zack.

"Soooo…."echoed Cloud.

"What do you think of Aeris so far…?"asked Zack.

"It's only our first date.." replied Cloud.

"And…?"persisted Zack…

He really wanted to know how Cloud felt. Ever since Cloud met Aeris, it was like he changed into a new person…, which was good.

Maybe he won't be so serious anymore…well more party time for me! Zack thought snickering.

"I like her a lot…"Cloud replied.

"No way!" exclaimed Zack.

"Yes, I don't know what it is…but she makes me feel happier…like I don't have to be serious anymore…that I can live!" Cloud sighed.

Yup…Cloud's got bitten by the love bug…it's about time too…

"Well, that's great. I like Tifa too…but I don't think I'm going to admit that just yet." Said Zack.

"Me too…I don't think I'll let Aeris know I like her that much…after all it is our first date. I don't want to scare her off." Replied Cloud.

"Yeah…so about the exams…they are next week…I hope I do well…" said Zack.

"Me too…"replied Cloud.

I have to do well…I don't want to look like a loser in front of Aeris.

"By the way…what's taking the girls so long…??? exclaimed Zack.

Gold Saucer- Powder Room 8:07

"What do you think of Zack?" questioned Tifa.

"I think you two are so cute together!" Aeris giggled.

"I like him a lot. What about you and Cloud?" Tifa asked.

Aeris giggled. " I like him a lot."

"YOU DO?? As in likey like?" Tifa exclaimed.

"….yes.." Aeris blushed.

"Well since you're transferring to Balamb you'll see him more…are you going to tell him?" asked Tifa.

"Me? Nonononnonononono…I couldn't do that." Aeris said nervously. "After all we've only known each other for about an hour or so…"

"Haven't you ever heard of love at first sight?" teased Tifa.

"Well…I…" Aeris blushed.

"Well we'll see what happens…" Tifa said.

"Well we should go back now." Aeris said.

"Okay…" Tifa answered.

They both opened the door and walked back to the table where Cloud and Zack were waiting.

************************************************************************

"Hey! You're back!" smiled Zack.

"We are!" smiled Tifa.

Just then a slow song came on…and the couples got in pairs.

"Do you wanna dance?" Zack asked Tifa.

"Yes…" Tifa sighed.

Zack took Tifa's hand and walked to the centre of the room.

Cloud and Aeris sat at the table.

I want to dance with her but I can't…I'll look like an idiot.

"Hey Cloud. Do you want to dance?" Aeris asked looking into Cloud's eyes.

Doh! I can't dance! But those eyes…I can't say no…

"Yes…I do" Cloud responded as he took her hand and led her to the dance floor.
