Chapter 6 The surprise

'...Two days...it's been two long torturous days since, I saw you again? But did I? There you go again Cloud, questioning yourself again, No I saw you I'm positive I did, I saw there in the shadows, your green eyes sparkling in the darkness, and your silver hair gleaming in the moonlight...But you ran from me. Me, the one person who loves you the most, you ran from me? Seph, I'm so sorry if I hurt you, but I want you back...please, my friend's don't even believe me, Tifa and Vincent think that I'm delusional and that I'm starting to have hallucinations of you. And Reno? Well, he just said that if I had seen you, that you'd be long gone by now'.

'Yeah great advice that was...'

"Cloud? Cloud! CLOUD!" Tifa bellowed in to her blonde friend's ear, but he futile attempts to get her friend back into the real world failed badly; she didn't even get a flinch out of Cloud, while he stared outside obviously deep in thought. Tifa sighed and looked at Reno and Vincent desperately for a solution, but both just shrugged and carried on drinking (Vincent had lemonade and Reno had beer) there beverages quietly, Tifa was running out of ideas and ended up knocking on Clouds head like it was a door. "Hello? Is anyone in here today?" Tifa called.

Cloud blinked and looked at Tifa, who had an unimpressed look on her face. "What?" Tifa shook her head in disbelief; Cloud blinked again and realised that an apology was in order here. " Umm sorry Tifa...I was just thinking..." Tifa rolled her eyes at him; the whole bar had heard her call Cloud's name, but she had stood right next to him and he hadn't moved and inch. "Cloud what is wrong with you? You disappear for hours on end to god knows where, you hardly come here anymore, and when people try and talk to you your like a complete stranger to them...especially me..."

Cloud sighed and rubbed his temple; he really didn't want to discuss this right now...

"It's nothing Tifa...I'm just tired that's all..." Cloud muttered before getting up from his stool and leaving the bar. Tifa sighed unshed tears brimming in her eyes. 'Cloud...what's wrong with you? You've been like this for two days now and it's almost unbearable, why can't you talk to us now, if not Vincent and Reno, what about me? Why can't you talk to me?' Tifa sighed wiping away her unshed tears quickly, placing a fake smile on her face and going to serve another waiting customer.

~*~

Cloud took a deep breath as soon as he got outside of the bar, he needed to walk around, have some fresh (Excuse the pun, but this IS Midgar you know) air, but pulled his hood up as the rain started to drizzle down. 'I'm sorry guys but I just can't talk to you anymore, you won't believe me if I told you' Cloud sighed and set off down the dark road, letting his feet do the walking, while Cloud got lost up In his thoughts. 'But Tifa is right, I'm becoming a complete stranger to them, I need to get over this...' Cloud was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't notice that he had walked straight into sector 4...

Cloud's feet suddenly stopped without him knowing, and Cloud looked up and out from the shadows he was in, and nearly had a heart attack at the sight before him; there in front of him, was a group of children in GI robes, so they had obviously just finished there martial arts lesson, but what shocked him was who they children were huddled around; There in a GI of his own, was Sephiroth. Cloud couldn't believe it, even though Sephiroth's hair was now black and his eyes were blue (The Mako glow was seeping through the lenses), Cloud could recognise that face and body anywhere.

'S...Sephiroth...you are alive...but why? Why the hell did you run...from me...are you still hurt? Oh god! I'm sorry!" Cloud gasped, tears leaking down his face, then Clod slid down the wall and curled up in a ball his body shaking with hurt as he burst into tears, his heart slowly breaking.

~*~

Sephiroth watched almost happily as the children walked off with there parents or on there own down the road convinced they could 'kick anyone's ass' with there new skills. 'When was the last time I felt truly happy?' Sephiroth thought to himself, then after a moment he came up with the only answer he had. 'When I was with Cloud...' Sephiroth sighed, motioning to back into the dojo, then he heard something, it sounded like a gasp; Sephiroth frowned, he wondered weather one of his students had got hurt. 'I hope it's not Rein again, the little show off...' Sephiroth thought.

"Hello?" Sephiroth called, but he was greeted by silence. Sephiroth shrugged to himself. Before turning and walking back to the Dojo... A little too late Sephiroth's sensed something coming towards him, then he heard it before he actually turned around, and then just as he had done, a hooded stranger pounced him upon.

The two rolled around and around on the ground, for what seemed an eternity, before the hooded attacker finally gained the advantage and pinned the silver haired man to the ground. Nothing was said for a moment neither of them moved as Sephiroth stared into the darkness of his attackers hood. "What? Who are you?" Sephiroth whispered as he tried to sit up, but was only shoved back down by his attacker

"What? You mean you don't know? Or have you just suddenly gained memory loss?" Sephiroth blinked and winced inwardly at the voice it was full of anger and pain. Sephiroth didn't know what to do, and then he noticed that the hood covering his attackers face was loose, so Sephiroth reached up a hand and pulled down the hood slowly, revelling the face, which made Sephiroth gasp.

"C...Cloud?" Sephiroth didn't know who looked more shocked, himself or the blonde man on top of him. Neither of them moved for a moment as they stared at one another then Sephiroth decided to break the silence as the rain began to fall. "Cloud? What are you-" Sephiroth stared but he was cut off by a fist connecting with his jaw and something wet on his cheek; only then did he realise that Cloud was in tears.

"You're...your alive, then I wasn't...but why? Why did you run away you basterd, do you know what it's been like? My friends don't even believe that your alive, they think I'm hallucinating, and all this time you were here?" Sephiroth opened his mouth to speak but Cloud carried on, shouting out to the heavens. "I TRUSTED YOU!!! I LOVED YOU, AND YOU THERW IT ALL AWAY? FOR WHAT?" Cloud stopped for a moment to wipe his tears away while Sephiroth looked on in shock at the anger aimed at him through Cloud's Mako blue eyes. "All this time, I thought that it was all my fault, and that I was to blame for your death, and maybe I still am, but it doesn't matter who's to blame anymore, because I've realized something, you don't care anymore"

Cloud roughly got off the silver haired man and sat on the ground, wrapping his arms around his knees while trying not to shake. Sephiroth was shocked to the core; he had no idea that Cloud would react like this. 'I'm just making things worse for him, damn it Ancients why? Why do you have to let him suffer!' Sephiroth reached out and brushed Cloud's tears away, the blonde blinked and looked up at Sephiroth who gave a sad smile.

"Cloud...I never stopped loving you, and I do still care for you, but, the Creta or namely Aeris told me to run from you, I didn't want us to meet like this. I'm so sorry..." Cloud blinked again, the tears staining his pale cheeks and the blonde warrior lowered his head, before he laughed bitterly. "What do we look like Seph?" Your meant to be dead, I'm meant to be the savoir of the world, I'm 23 years old and I'm swimming in my own dark depression" Cloud scrambled forward and straddled Sephiroth, looking each other deep in the eyes.

"Help me Seph, help me to get out" Then Cloud pressed his lips gently to Sephiroth's, To say Sephiroth was surprised would be a serious understatement; he looked like he was having a heart attack, but Sephiroth moaned deeply, longing for this moment for a long time. It must have been at least three minutes before the two broke the kiss, gasping for air. "Come to my flat and I'll explain..." Sephiroth panted, Cloud nodded and got up from Sephiroth's lap, before he followed Sephiroth down the road...
