Well, that last chappie was weird, huh? Yeah, sorry it took so long for me
to make it. Oh, and guys. I've decided to dedicate this next chapter to,
ahem, a very special someone. sob sob.
Chapter 7
A million things passed through my mind after arriving back home from the ceremony. Aeris was back. Aeris was by my side again and forever. And she loved me. Life was blissful in her company. How any man could resist her, I didn't know.
The others would come visit us every so often and hang out in the villa. Everyone but Tifa, that is. we still hadn't heard back from her since the disturbing events of the ceremony. I couldn't understand why she would betray Aeris and me in the way she did. It was all very upsetting for Aeris too, as she confessed that she had always thought highly of Tifa.
"I don't understand." she sighed while cooking some stir-fry one evening, "She had always been a good person, you know what I mean?"
I merely nodded in agreement. I had indeed loved Tifa, even if that sort of love was very different than the kind I had for Aeris. Tifa was a good friend, and it was sad to know that she, in some way, was helping the world's most despised villain. But if that's what she wanted, then there was no way that I could let her back into my heart. It was just too great a crime.
"Don't be sad, doll," I comforted Aeris, "I'm upset too. But there's nothing we can do now anyway. Something's gone wrong with her. Now all we can do is hope that she'll get some sense knocked into her and stop what she's doing."
"I guess so." Aeris said quietly as she got back to her cooking. She was quiet for a minute, but then spoke up again. "Cloud."
"Uh-huh," I answered from my spot at the kitchen table.
"Do you think Tifa still likes you.?"
I pondered for a moment trying to understand why she'd ask that. "I dunno. I wasn't ever sure that she really ever did.why?"
"Well." she started, "Don't you think that if that's the case, she and Sephiroth would have sort of the same intentions. to break you and me up?"
She looked at me with serious and fearful eyes. She had made a good point. And we both knew that it was, in fact the closest thing to the truth. I stood up and walked over to where she stood. She turned her mind back to the stir-fry. I stood behind and snuck my arms around her waist as I rocked her back and forth.
"Shh," I whispered as I let her cry quietly, "It's okay, Aeris. In the end we'll understand, won't we?"
She didn't say anything. She just let me do as I would and sobbed quietly. I cradled her in my arms and whispered my amorous words into her ear, but she merely shed all her tears. Was she scared? Was she nervous?
"I've lost someone special, Cloud." she barely spoke.
"I know. I have too."
~~~~~**********~~~~~
The next few days were slow and even though I had Aeris with me, they were monotonous. We did the same things we did the previous week, but nothing was the same. We knew something was up, but yet if we wanted to fix it, we wouldn't have known where to start. We knew nothing of where Sephiroth and Tifa were. Barret told us that he had inspected Tifa's house in the unharmed area of Midgar several times, but nothing could be found of her whereabouts. I tried her time and time again, but I couldn't get in touch with Tifa either.
Aeris was still very, very upset. She'd often be very quiet and say little. I knew that she was still making an effort to be pleasant though, since she'd throw me smiles here and there. I could tell that those smiles were forced though, even if she was trying. She'd be up late at night, cleaning and doing everything she could to keep busy. And that's another thing. she took very goody care of me. We weren't even married and she somehow felt responsible for cleaning my house and feeding me. I told her that it wasn't necessary, but she'd just ignore my protests.
One night, I had had enough. I loved Aeris and cared about her; I didn't want to see her sulking around all the time! While she was getting into her bed, I confronted her about how I felt.
"Hey," was my opening, "How you doing?"
She looked up at me curiously. We hadn't said much to each other the whole day so she must have been a little puzzled to hear me speaking so suddenly.
"I." she started, "I guess I'm okay."
She was in a new fancy nightgown and I sat in my very casual, happy-face boxers. I stared into her eyes and again became enraptured in their beauty. But this time, there was something so sorrowful about them. They always looked ready to release warm, salty tears but Aeris always held them back. I came and sat next to her on her bed. "Are you really?"
She sighed despairingly. "Oh, Cloud." She suddenly tucked her head in against my chest and just cried. She cried like I'd never seen her do, releasing her every emotion.
"Why? WHY?" she asked through her tears, "Why must my love always be so painful?"
I pushed my chin so that it sat comfortingly over her head. Her hair was soft and smelt sweet. Though Aeris didn't know it, I needed her just as much as she needed me at that time. She meant so much. so, so much.
"I know, baby," I sighed quietly, "I know how you feel." She continued to cry for a few minutes and I didn't mind. She needed to let it out and I needed to have her close to me again. How important she was to me. She released her feelings. She spoke a little, she cried a lot. But most of all, she freed herself.
After a little while she brought her head up to look at me. "Oh," she said with a little laugh, brushing the tears from her eyes, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be such a baby."
"It's fine," I told her, "You feeling better now?"
"Mm-hmm," she nodded.
"Good." I said, stroking her hair, "I missed you over these past few days. Inform me next time you go outta town, k?" We giggled a little, but suppressed our laughter with a union of the lips. I just didn't know how far it would go.
She kissed me back and we let ourselves go. I again slid my big hands around her small, delicate waist. I grabbed at the silky fabric of her white nightgown and smoothed it against her body as we continued to kiss.
"Mmm." she moaned quietly, "Hee-hee!"
She let her own fingers travel up my bare chest teasingly until she reached my shoulders, where she found herself wrapping her arms around.
"I need you so bad." I gasped between our lip locks.
"I know, I know!" she stated briefly with her sweet feminine voice, before getting back to what we both needed.
On and on we went, but every time I'd try to push it a little further she'd hold back. She knew the limits and wasn't going to compromise them, not even for someone she loved. Eventually, however I found myself just making my every movement subconsciously. I didn't even think about what I did; I just did it. I just assumed that it was my body making the decisions, instead of my mind. It was okay with me as long as I wasn't doing anything harmful. But soon. soon it got worse.
I was going for her skirt and started to reach my hands up it very sensually.
"Cloud!" Aeris exclaimed cautiously before drawing back and away from me, "What are doing?"
Then I knew that I hadn't just been acting on instinct. my words revealed that I wasn't even controlling myself anymore. "Oh, come on, Aeris. I think you and I both know what you REALLY want." I reached for her again but she stood up and away from the bed. I stood with her and took her by the shoulders.
"Cloud." she said, her eyes quivering with fear. She knew something was up. "I. I'm not very comfortable."
"That's fine." I pushed her down against the bed and started pressing my lips against her, but she didn't return the favor. She tried pushing me away but I just pressed in harder then.
"Stop it, Cloud." she shouted, "What the hell are you doing?"
"I'm doing what I wanna do, Aeris. Just cooperate and I'll go gentle on you."
"No, stop!" She tried to roll away on the bed, but my hand came down so she could go no further. I pressed my face very close to hers. She was breathing very heavily all of a sudden. "You're gonna do what I want, alright, bitch?!" She said nothing. "You HEAR?!" She said nothing again and I gave her a hard blow to the cheek. She whimpered a little in surprise and started to squirm.
"Cloud!" she said, as if calling to the real me, "I know it's not you! Please. see your way through this. Take control!"
"SHUDDUP!" my lips yelled at her, giving another harsh slap. I hated myself right then and there. I was so weak to not even be able to help her.And how hard I tried to free my body from doing such things. I tried to take control, I tried so hard.
"Come on, Aeris," I cooed in a creepy voice as I forced her over to the headboard on the bed, "It's not that hard. Just give it up and it'll be fine."
"I. I won't do it when you're not yourself, Cloud. I just won't."
"YES YOU WILL!" I screamed and started madly ripping at the top part of her nightgown like an animal.
"Get OFF of me, Cloud! OFF!" She was now screaming as I raged towards her wildly, finally ripping her nightgown to expose her body, only covered by a skimpy lingerie. She had had enough and gave me a quick slap on the cheek.
"Oh-oh!" I joked dangerously without a hint of sympathy, "That's how you want it to be, huh? Well, guess what! We're doing things MY WAY! Now just lie down and cooperate. And don't you ever, ever hit me again, you hear?!" I gave her another terrible blow to the head. She touched her cheek and was fearful in discovering the blood trickling out beneath her right eye.
"Let me GO, Cloud!" she screamed through her tears, "Please! Please!" She started to do everything she could to get away from me, but I merely grabbed her wrists and laughed at her feeble attempts. I felt so guilty, so awful.
LET ME OUT, SEPHIROTH! Came my internal screams, though only Sephiroth and I could hear them. DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY ANGEL!
I found my mind clawing at endless black curtains trying to find a way out, but all that my eyes saw was the repeated fear being inflicted on Aeris. I could see her desperation, her attempts to get away from my harmful blows. And how many times I hit her I still don't know.
She had quit fighting so much when she became tired, but continued to struggle with whatever energy she had left. She'd claw at my chest desperately, hoping to achieve something. But when she'd try, I'd just as easily laugh like the demon Sephiroth was, and maybe hit her ruthlessly again. She was crying loudly without being able to help it through her brutal beatings.
Soon I was lying right on top of her, pressing all my weight onto her fragile frame, crushing her against the suddenly rock hard bed. She screamed so loudly for someone, for anyone, to help her. And how I prayed the neighbors might here or something. Someone needed to save her, because I was soon to ruin her.
But of course no one came. No one could take the few, simple minutes to call the police and save the world's savior and most prized possession from the grips of sin and evil. Little did they know, Aeris had saved the world's ass from Meteor, but they were all too selfish to help her. They were selfish, useless and weak people.
I continued to terrorize Aeris and soon I was doing what I most feared I would do. As I lied on top of her, disgustingly skimming my tongue and lips over her soft skin much to her protests, I stopped. A grin suddenly appeared over my lips and I laughed again.
"Now, COME ON!" I yelled at her as I started pressing myself against her.
"Cloud, NO!" she screamed shrilly as I ripped my way against her. She was bawling her eyes out insanely as I brushed roughly against the surface of her private areas, immorally and disgustingly inflicting every sort of pain. Inside I was crying too. Inside I hated everything. Inside I wanted to die and release Aeris of this awful pain. But on the outside I was destroying.
And finally I had pushed my way inside. Aeris screamed in discomfort and fear. How could anyone do something so awful to someone so helpless? She started to sob quietly instead of wailing loudly as my lips made sounds of perverted ecstasy. I wanted to just hold Aeris at that point and comfort her. Instead, I robbed her of her purity by bursting my way into her virgin beauty. How low Sephiroth was. how very low.
A few minutes later, I released Aeris of all that pain. She was still crying, her face so red and swollen from my numerous beatings. I looked down at her and she looked back incredulously. I hated me. I hate me almost as much as I hated Sephiroth. I wanted to cradle my frail, broken doll in my arms. But instead my hand bunched its way into a solid fist and gave her a last hard blow to the face and she passed out.
Though she was totally out of it, I continued to laugh viciously like an animal. I laughed maliciously at her pain and weakness though I was really screaming underneath.
"Take that, you stupid wench," my lips cackled, "I hope you burn in HELL!" After that, my head became heavy. How someone could sleep after committing such a heinous crime I'd never understand. But I had no choice. My eyes closed and my head rested on the pillow and the world faded away, but my sorrow did not.

A/N: Hey, I hope that that wasn't too insane. Was it too intense? I really wanna know cause, like, I really wanted it to be an effective scene! Thanks for "tuning in" lol! Please review with your comments and constructive criticism!!
