Fear and Courage Chapter 16
"So, where should we start our next adventure?" Nanaki asked. "Gold Saucer, Gold Saucer!" Yuffie was chanting. She certainly was back to
her old ways too.
"How about Midgar? The rebuilding should be going well." Barret suggested.
"Or Nibelheim, to recollect the memories," Vincent added to the
conversation."
"You jackasses talk like we have all the time in the world!" Cid shouted. "We gotta think carefully. Teef, it's up to you. Where do you say we should
go?" "Me?" Tifa asked. "You want me to decide? Well..." She looked at Cloud, who
was looking at her. Her stomach was doing back flips. Just seeing Cloud
looking at her, even for a glance, made her do that.
"Well, as it's up to me, I want to go where everyone else wants to go. I
know we won't get everywhere, but that's alright."
"So where first?" Cloud asked.
"Well, we could go and get our Chocobo's from the Chocobo Ranch." Cait
recommended.
"Yeah, why not?" Barret agreed, as did everyone else.
"Okay, but we'll need some sleep first!" Yuffie advised.
"Alright, g'night all." Cid yawned, but they all understood anyway. "G'night Cid," Barret replied and Cid retired to his chambers, as Barret
took Marlene to hers to tuck her in.
"Nightie night Vinnie!" Yuffie planted a friendly kiss on Vincent's cheek and he blushed immediately as Cait taunted him for a joke. She ran to her
room and shut her door.
"Good night everyone." Nanaki sighed.
"Yeah g'night you guys!" Cait exclaimed and ran to his room.
"Tifa, Cloud, I bid you both good night." Vincent nodded.
"Good night Vincent," they both replied. Vincent walked to his room and
shut his door slowly.
"Well, I guess we both need rest, Good night Teef." Cloud said to Tifa.
"Hey Cloud, wait." Cloud stopped before he shut his door.
"Yes?" Cloud look puzzled.
"If I asked for something, would you give it me?" She blushed a little. "Anything. You name it." Cloud replied and smirked at her embarrassment.
"A good night kiss?" Tifa blurted out.
Cloud eyes opened a little wider. "Of course." Cloud replied and Tifa
walked up to him. She kissed his cheek and embraced him slowly. Cloud wrapped his strong arms around her back and kissed the top of her head. Not realising they had been stood there in each other's arms for a while they
both let go slowly and reluctantly.
"Well, good night Cloud." Tifa whispered softly. "Yeah, good night Teef." Cloud sighed as she smiled and closed her door. He
returned to his room.
Tifa turned her back to the door and rested her body weight on it.
"God, Cloud. When will I get the courage to tell you? I'm so glad to be
here with you." She thought as she flopped on her bed and fell asleep.
Cloud sat on his bed and sighed deeply. "God, Tifa you're so beautiful. I need to tell you soon. Or it could be too late." A tear slipped down his
cheek, thinking about how, soon, she would no longer be with him.
He went to sleep, and dreamt how good it would be if he told her and she felt the same way. He also woke in the night from a terrible dream, that Sephiroth had taken her away from him and killed her in front of his very
own eyes.
He woke up sweating, praying that it would never happen, but relief washed over him when hem remembered that he eliminated Sephiroth once and for all.
"I'll never let that happen to her."
