** Note:** I hope to at least make some REALLY steamy scenes soon for Cloud and Sephy. I'm getting over a cold and my gaming skills for FF7 are really improving and I'm trying to understand all that's been happening with the Planet and what not. You have to pay a lot of attention to the plot line. Oh- have any of ya'll seen previews or screenshots from the new FFX-2?!?!?!! THEY'RE AWESOME!!! Yuna looks tight! Go to ffonline.com to see two promotion arts and also this- Yoshinori Kitase, the program director of FF7 and Tetsuya Nomura, the character artist, are planning and drawing out a plan... possibly to make a sequel to FF7. They themselves are tracing back their footsteps of the game and pulling out miportant details of the game and as Kitase said in an interview- "In truth, there are many who'd like to make such a game, Nomura, who's working on Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, included. Many of the Square staff participated in the development of FFVII, and the memories are strong. Additionally, expressing the world of FFVII using today's technology would certainly be interesting. However, FFVII still has many fans, We couldn't make a bad product." " It's a golden road on which they want to retrace their steps perfectly. One false move and they could turn this newer game into a major disappointment," quotes the IGN reporter about the game. Cross your fingers, everyone... and pretty-please review!!! HAPPY LATE THANKSGIVING!

It felt like the whole wrold stopped revolving for a minute, the beating of his heart beating in his ears loudly and his face went white like a bedsheet. " W-what do you mean- you saw?," questioned Cloud quietly, tightening his grip on his gun. Zack frowned at the blonde and crossed his arms over his chest, pushing himself from up against the wall. " Don't play around with a high-standard man such as Sephiroth, Cloud... I though you had better common sense than that," Zack snarled, obviously furious at his friend. The boy swallowed the lump that formed in his throat and brushed past Zack hard, anger written on his flushed face. " You don't know him the way I do! Don't get up all on me because someone loves me back!!!," Cloud cried out, slamming his fist in the wall beside him, his breaths coming out in ragged tones, his sapphire orbs enflared with anger. Zack tossed his hands up in the air. " Fabulous!!! You're fucking LOVE-STRICKEN, Cloud. How do you know he cares for you- hell, even LOVES you?!!," shouted the young man, his heart crying out in pain. The one thing important to him was being taken away by that silver-haired General and he didn't want to see Cloud get hurt, not the way Zack had seen him get dumped off by his previous love lifes in the past while at the academy.
The blonde was silent, tears swimming in his eyes, staring at Zack. " Please... understand me, Zack- I KNOW he loves me!!! I see it in his face everytime he sneaks glances at me. Not out of lust, but love, Zack... I want you to be happy for me this one time... c'mon, Zack..."
The black-haired man sighed deeply, rubbing his eyes tiredly and tapped his forehead with a finger, sorting out this situation. " ... why do I bother with this...? I try to help you out, Cloud. I don't like seeing you hurt and torn."
A hand laid itself on Zack cheek, bringing him out of his reverie. The two boys looked at one another, passing a secret, non-spoken conversation through their eyes. This lasted almost for two, short minutes, Zack seeing the truth laying in Cloud's face. " All right, Cloud. I'll be behind you one hundred percent, but if he screws around with you and tosses you out, I'm opening a can of whoop ass on him- General or no General. Promise me this, Cloud," Zack murmured, hugging the blonde. The small boy nodded in his shoulder and hugged him back. " Pinky promise."
/~/~/~
Morning light streamed into the lone bedroom the next say, the Chinese birds of Wutai echoing in Cloud's semi sleep-fulled mind. A thick scent of snap dragonflies, magnolias and orchids filled his nostrils, seeping into his memory bank. Streching gracefully with feline reflexes, Cloud sat up in his bed, sheets wrapped around his legs and waist. Cloud smiled faintly to the sun and streched his arms up high, naked back arching into the air. " Aaahhh... eee...!," Cloud said to himself, falling back onto the bed, laughing aloud at the funny noise he made. He was warm and didn't want to leave the beautiful town just yet. He wanted to roam around and fight miniature battles, eat, talk with the interesting people and make friends. But a loud, sharp knock on his door told him otherwise. " Time to get up, Sunshine!," chirped Zack from the other side. " Ah, no thank you..." " You HAVETA get up, buddy-
General's orders..."
In a quick flash, Cloud was showered, dressed and out the door of the hotel, throwing his share of Gil in Zack's hands. " Bye! See ya on the ship!!!" Zack gaped at the now departed Cloud and shook his head. " Oi..." The sky was a bright blue outside with tints of pink, orange, and gold around the western part of the sky as the sun continued to rise, the remaining coolness of the night air piercing through Cloud's lungs briefly, then melded down within him. Cloud wanted to see his General again, his face lit up like it was Christmas already. Standing in line with the other soldiers, Cloud stood up straighter as Tseng and Sephiroth walked by, doing role call. " Number 48- Hanoto?"
" Here, sir!"
" Number 49- Andrews?"
" Here, sir!"
" Number 50- Strife?"
" Here, sir!"
Sephiroth's eyes slid past his soldiers to the main one that caught his eye only last week. The blonde was smiling, but secretly in his hood with his eyes. He didn't want the others to see and start talking. Then, Cloud tensed a bit, feeling those bright green eyes on him. Peeking up at the General, Cloud saluted and marched off with the other soldiers, his own eyes on Sephiroth. The General drew in a sharp breath, his face pinking slightly at a sudden move Cloud made.
' Did he just wink at me?!'
Cloud looked away, smirking, positively proud with himself as the entire rank filed into the Shin-Ra ship, with Tseng, Sephiroth, and Rufus in the back. The boy then moaned inwardly. ' Damn sea-sickness...' He made his way to sick bay once the large ship lurched forward. Zack watched this and laughed aloud. " You're a true SOLDIER now!!!," he bellowed at his friend. " BITE ME!," came the answer.
/~/~/~
Cloud stared outside on the deck, arms against the railing, the wind pushing back his unruly hair gently. He closed his eyes and breathed in the salty air deeply, the overwhelming scent filling his lungs nicely. Opening back his eyes, Cloud stared at the sunset in the horizon, marvelling at the orange, red, gold, pink, and light blue colours that stretched outward. Seagulls and other wild birds flew above lazily while dolphins and some other sea creatures joined along side the ship as if they were racing. It reminded him of when he was little, and he and his mother would take frequent trips to the Costa de Sol for vacations. Cloud hugged himself tightly, trying to stay warm from the shivering sea wind as they headed for Midgar. ' Back to the academy... and no more of Sephiroth...,' he thought to himself, frowning sadly. His head bowed down a little, then froze as a leatherd glove slid its way across it slowly. " Zack- knock it out!," whinned Cloud, turning around to face the impish soldier.
" Sorry to bust your bubble, but I'm not Zack," chuckled the silver-haired General, taking his hand off of Cloud's neck. " Oh. Sorry," mumbled Cloud, growing red. ' Two points, Cloud, for screwing up,' cackled the little voice in his head. ' Shove off.' " Um... what are you doing here?," questioned the blonde, standing up straighter, leaving his post from the rail. Sephiroth smiled lightly, the wind pushing his bangs in his face softly, lovingly. Cloud caught himself staring rather longingly and excused that. ' Ooh, three points!'
' Will you butt out?!!'
" I came out here to check up on everything. You seem better than when we first arrived to Wutai," Sephiroth pointed out, joining Cloud along side of the boat rail. " Well... the medicine finally kicked in, so... I guess I'm alright. Thank you for asking," Cloud said in a quiet voice, fingering his helment. Sephiroth's hand laid on his, stilling the boy. " Uh, sir...?" Cloud's eyes raised to the taller man, looking into his face questionably. The way the sun was lighting the features of Sepiroth's face made the boy tremble. He looked far from handsome-
more like etheral and tainted with the most wholesome power one could hold.
Gold light reflected off of those mysterious, aqua-green eyes as Sephiroth took his hand and cupped it under Cloud's chin, making sure the boy looked at him fully. " Tell me, Strife... just how much are you willing to put on to kiss me?," he asked lowly, a slow rumble from the depths of his chest. Cloud swallowed hard, red becoming very popular on his face right at the moment. " I- I don't... know... I just..."
" Just what? What, kitten?"
Cloud smiled a bit at the nickname and then became bolder, his mouth moving faster that his mind. " I just want you." Shock penitrated down in his lower regions, the voice in his head screaming. ' YOU NOT GONNA... you are..., aren't you? Aw, damn. He didn't screw up.'
" Such a big move for such a little boy."
" I'm not little! And I'm not a boy!!!," shrieked Cloud, pushing away from Sephiroth, anger swelling in his sapphire eyes. He turned his back to him, arms crossed over his chest. " I meant that in no way to insult you, kitten," murmured Sephiroth, wrapping his arms around the lithe body. Cloud bit his bottom lip, a thing he always did when he was little and was in a sticky situation. The same warm, leathered-covered hand came up and tugged out the lip. " Don't do that, kitten... it'll ruin your lovely, little lips," Sephiroth said, laughter in his voice. Cloud was tempted at the sight of the General's hand holding his lip, so, he did a daring move-
He took the index finger and sucked on it.
Cloud felt a sharp gasp behind his neck and smiled, tongue entwining along the finger, tasting the bitter and flaxen taste of leather. Cloud bit gently on the finger and then released it, letting himself lean back in Sephiroth's embrace. " So... am I little now?," smirked the blonde.
Silence.
Cloud began to get worried. ' Maybe I shouldn't have done that... I'm gonna get kicked out of the academy!!! Now Mom and the others back home will think I'm an embarrassement!' Tears formed in his eyes and he pulled back from the General. " Forget it... sorry, I did that. I didn't mean to, sir! Please- hmmppff!"
Well, apparently Sephiroth didn't OR wasn't going to forget that little... um, incident.
Sephiroth pounced Cloud, kissing him fully and powerfully on the lips, making the boy tense up and stared at the man in shock. ' Well... hmm... ah... oh, what the fuck...'
Cloud let him in submessively, his own wetness crawling up against the rough tonuge that of Sephiroth's, tasting a faint memory of bourbon and a tangy other mixture like that of saki. ' Hee... he's like on big drink- all for me.'
Sneakily, Cloud wound his arms up Sephiroth's neck and brought him closer, wanting to taste more of what the General had for him. But also in a case of being sneaky, Cloud brusingly brushed his hips against the General's, feeling a bulge against the upper part of his crotch area and let out a moan, breaking the kiss and shuddering, his head tilting back to the sunlight and allowing Sephiroth to ravish on his ivory neck. Mouth opened, the lust-pained boy gave a cry out into the early night air and clawed at Sephiroth's back. The General stopped feasting on his neck and brought Cloud down to eye-level. " You have no idea what you are doing to me, do you, kitten?," breathed the man, his eyes a hot green. Cloud shook his head timidly, chewing on his already raspberry-coloured bottom lip, a mask of innocence plastered on his face. With that, Sephiroth grabbed his arm and dragged him off the deck, silver hair flying behind him. ' What did I do wrong?,' Cloud thought to himself, scared at the fact that Sephiroth seemed furious at him.
It happened fast, so the next thing Cloud knew-
... he was in the General's quarters.
Hee-hee... sneaky, aren't I? CLIFF- HANGER!!! I need more reviews. More reviews mean more Cloud and Sephy. ^_________^ Wonder if Cloud can handle it?
