"Cloud, you don't have to make a stress out of this," Vincent said.
"Concentrate on your battle, not on Aeris or Tifa." Cloud nodded and
picked hid sword up, "I know, Vince. Thanks."
He walked over to his closet and picked up two more bags that he swung around his shoulder. Vincent watched him, "Good luck, Cloud." Cloud headed towards the door as Tifa ran in the room. She panted and paused for a while before saying anything.
"Tifa?" Cloud turned around. "What are you doing here?" Tifa took a few more breathes, "I . . . . . I'm going with you!" Vincent cocked his head, "What? You can't do that!"
Cloud frowned, "Tifa, what are you saying? I'm the only one who can go here. Not you." Tifa shook her head and walked closer, "Why not? We've accomplished a mission together once. And you think we can't do it again? It's about the sake of others, so I'm gonna help you." Cloud hesitated. He turned to the door again and walked out. "You're not going."
"Tifa," Vincent said. "Can't you be more obedient? It's too dangerous!" Tifa ignored him and ran towards Cloud.
"I can't go? I really can't?"
Cloud nodded, "It's not for you, Tif. Just be good and stay here. Take care of the others while I'm gone."
"But what if you get hurt? And what about Aeris? What is she gonna feel?"
Vincent reached over and grabbed Tifa's arm, "Cloud, you're gonna be late." Tifa shook him off. Her eyes were full of tears.
Cloud sighed. He dropped his sword and bags and walked over to Tifa. He set a hand on her soft crying face. Vincent backed away as he watched the two standing together. After a long moment of silence, talked to her gently, "I've talked to Aeris already. She cares just as much as you. But I can't risk taking any of you. . . . ."

(Puff2978: Well there you go. It's almost the ending. I've been thinking about whom Cloud's going to choose for a very long time. But if you put yourself in Cloud's point of view, you can tell he has had a terrible headache. Both of them are the same to him and he loves both of them as friends. The next final three chapters will tell you about his decision, and the aftermath. Also, thanks for reading!)
