Something

Disclaimer: I don't own anything, though I wish I did. So let's all bow down now to Squaresoft, Disney, and all those other companies we know and love.
Summary: Leon, more commonly known as Squall Leonhart, hasn't seen his boyfriend in seven years. Now, Leon gets an unexpected visitor at Hollow Bastion. The fic is based on a song called "Something" sung by Lasgo.
A/N: Okay, pplz, there's some stuff that u need to know before reading this. First off, Leon is presently 20 and his boyfriend is presently 23. Also, this chapter takes place in Hallow Bastion, one year after the game. Now, on with the fic!

I was there, sitting on one of the velvet couches of the newly furnished library when he came. How long has it been? Seven years since we've last seen each other? I don't know, since I've lost count of the days here at Hallow Bastion.
Hallow Bastion . . . my world . . . my home . . .
This place was overruled by the Heartless some time ago . . . and I was unable to stop them. That is why I go by the name: Leon. Such a name sounds much more courageous, brave, and heroic compared to my previous one.
Squall . . . . . . . . . . meaning "a violent windstorm" . . . . . . . . . .
Every time Yuffie reminds me of the meaning of my name, I just snicker. No other name can fit me worse.
Though the threat of Ansem and the Heartless has long been forgotten, I still feel weak. A couple of allies and myself were able to move back into Hallow Bastion, thanks to Sora and his companions. Now, we can live peacefully here without the fear of darkness taking over.
Has it already been a year since the defeat of Ansem, our ex-leader? I think so.
Our ex-leader, Ansem, was truly a great man. It was just that . . . he had serious problems. He was obsessed with his scientific research and experiments. He was so immensely into it; he had to leave our world to travel to other worlds for more research. Then, his obsession with the science and "magic" of the heart became too deep, and he opened himself up to darkness, just for the sake of science. I a way, I feel that he didn't do anything wrong at all. He just did what he felt was for the good of his profession.
And now, this is where we are. I know there's more to the story than that, but I'll tell it another time.
As I was saying before, someone paid an unexpected visit. I was just minding my own business, cleaning my gunblade, Lionheart, when I hear the door open and close.
"Now, look what we have here," I heard Cid say, "What brought your spiky little ass back to town?"
Even then, I didn't look up from what I was doing. I knew what our visitor wanted. I also heard a pair of footsteps behind me, and heard Aerith and Yuffie gasp.
"Squall . . ." the visitor said in a low voice. I looked up to see my boyfriend. The one that I hadn't seen in seven years. Seven years had changed him . . .
"Cloud . . ." I whispered, staring into his bright Mako blue eyes.
Yes, seven years did . . . .

QOC: Yo, pplz, how was that? U want more? Just review! Also, be free to tell me what y'all think. BTW, the flames that pplz give me are what I give to Squall and Cloud to make 'em hot, not that they already aren't. ^_~ Also, the stuff that relates to the song will be in future chapters, so stay tuned!
