Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts or any of its characters. That greatness belongs to SquareSoft or I think it's called Square-Enix now....ah well I don't own it
Warnings: MAJOR PWP!! Not to mention yaoi PWP basically means you shouldn't be here if you're under 17 or just hate male/male slash stuff I gave ya the warning so don't flame me. I won't care but you'll only be proving your own stupidity
A/N: Alright! Here we are now entering the third chapter of a fic that started off as a total one-shot. Well things have certainly changed haven't they? This will start the final chapters of Battles Lost (hopefully) This chapter is taking place after you can beat Sephiroth in the platinum match. Don't feel disheartened if you didn't. It took me until level 99 and Sora's ultimate weapon to do it. So don't feel bad. For the sake of this fic we'll say you did win...Now back to what I was saying, there will probably be only one more chapter after this one so be prepared for all this to end. I'm planning to write other fics after this so keep your eyes peeled. I'm thinking something with Yugioh....
Cloud sat at the window of the apartment he shared with Sephiroth staring out at the dark night sky. He stared out into the sea of stars that looked like small diamonds shining in the black oblivion of the sky. It had been about a week since he had fought with Leon and yet still lost at the hands of that kid. He'd never call Sora by his name; no, they were enemies now. He had nothing to say to the tiny spiky haired brunette.
Now, Sephiroth was fighting said kid. Cloud could hear the sounds of their fight echoing up through the walls of the Coliseum. Cloud couldn't see the fight from the apartment, but he wasn't really interested in doing so anyway. His thoughts once again drifted to Leon. He still hadn't found a way to 'safely' tell Sephiroth.
Cloud sighed. 'Maybe....there is no safe way...' Cloud thought. He stared again at the stars in the sky the moon starting to rise. As Cloud stared off there was boom followed by a pillar of light that erupted from the heavens reaching to the ground. "What the hell?" Cloud said falling back into reality to see the pillar hit the ground with a thunderous boom that made the ground shake. He watched the pillar return to the sky. The sky turned black again.
Only one person could open light from darkness like that. "Sephiroth..."
As if on cue, Sephiroth appeared in the apartment, a smaller version of the light pillar he used to teleport dispersing.
Sephiroth stared around the room for a moment. Cloud hadn't turned on any of the lights so the shadows of night had filled the apartment. He saw Cloud standing by the window, a befuddled look on his face.
"Seph? What's up? What happened?" Cloud asked not leaving his spot by the window.
Sephiroth ignored the blonde walking past him and into the hall that connected the main room to the bedroom and bathroom.
"Sephiroth!" Cloud called following Sephiroth down the hall. Sephiroth shut the door in Cloud's face seemingly oblivious to the blonde's calls. Cloud heard the lock in the door click. "Seph! Open the door! Come on Seph!" Cloud yelled through the door.
Cloud heard Sephiroth groan then the sound of sliding metal. "Seph!" Cloud yelled.
Sephiroth drew his sword and threw it at the door. He heard Cloud 'eep' as he fell back into the wall of the hall. The edge of the sword had cut through the door and the very point of it had nearly been impaled into Cloud's hand.
Cloud sat on the opposite side of the door backed up against the wall clutching his hand in fear. 'What in God's name happened?' Cloud thought leaving the hall and going to lay on the couch. Cloud crossed his arms staring at the ceiling. An idea popped into his head. "No...it couldn't be..." He said out loud. 'Impossible, how could Sephiroth have lost to the kid?'
'That could explain his mood....' his mind argued.
'But that doesn't make sense.....all my life I've never met anyone more powerful....I've seen him kill dragons in one swing. Decimate entire armies at the mere drawing of his sword....It just doesn't seem possible....'
'But it has to be...' Cloud thought. 'It seems so impossible...for Sephiroth to have lost to that 14-year-old boy. Sephiroth...how...how...how...'
Cloud fell into an uneasy sleep, the moon now high in the sky....
He awoke a few hours later, the hours before dawn still far off. Cloud figured it was probably somewhere near midnight. 'Sephiroth is probably asleep by now...' Cloud thought silently heading down the hallway to the bedroom door. He pulled out of his pocket a small hairpin that he kept with him always just in case he needed to break into or out of something.
He placed it in the keyhole fiddling with it and moving the pin about until he heard the click of the lock. He smiled grabbing onto the door and watching his head as he stood up since the point of the sword was still sticking through. He edged in pulling the sword out of the door when he reached the other side. He threw it into the hall and closed the door, locking it again.
He walked towards the bed measuring each step with skill so as not to make a sound. He stopped in front of the bed looking down at his lover's form. Sephiroth had removed his coat leaving his upper body naked. Sephiroth's eyebrows were drawn together in a look of pain.
Cloud looked at Sephiroth with saddened eyes. He'd never seen his lover look so hurt. To anyone else it would just appear the he was having a nightmare. But no, Cloud could see more. Sephiroth was in pain, and Cloud was sure of it.
He walked to the other side of the bed and lay down next to the silver haired man. Cloud leaned over him just slightly stroking Sephiroth's bangs away from his face. " Sephiroth," he whispered into his ear.
Sephiroth's eyes flickered open. He rolled over to see Cloud's bright blue eyes staring back at him. "Cloud?" Sephiroth said barley above a whisper. "I-I have failed you.."
"No! That's not-"
"Yes it is Cloud...I told you I would avenge you....all I have done is proven my own weakness."
Cloud was spellbound. Never had he heard or thought he would hear Sephiroth admit defeat. Seph, I-"
"Leave Cloud...I can't protect you anymore it's useless for you to rely on me..." He said his voice monotone and cold.
"No, Seph," Cloud said flipping him back to face the blonde again, "I love you. I can't stand to see you this way. I don't care what happens, that'll always be true. I will protect you." Cloud hugged Sephiroth wrapping his arm around him. A silent tear fell from his eyes hitting the silver haired man's chest.
Sephiroth looked at the blonde running his fingers through his hair. It was a while before he spoke.
"I will watch over you still," he said. Cloud looked up into Sephiroth's eyes. There was a truth and happiness in them that Cloud hadn't seen for a long time. "I love you too," he said pulling the blonde into a sweet kiss.
Cloud broke the kiss unwrapping his hands from Sephiroth. "I want to show you how much I love you this time," Cloud said with a smile lowering himself to Sephiroth's chest. "Let me give you back all the things you've given me." He kissed the man's stomach still going lower. "Let me show you my heart," Cloud said in between licks at Sephiroth's navel.
Sephiroth arched into Cloud's touch. It had been ages since he'd let anyone touch him this intimately. Even with Cloud he had stopped the blonde before he had even gotten this far. Now, it just didn't seem to matter anymore. No longer was there the protector and the protected. They were one now, forever. Cloud pushed back the thin sheets of the bed with his free hand.
Cloud unzipped Sephiroth's pants pulling them down his pale legs. He threw them down onto the floor and stared back at Sephiroth. Sephiroth had never seen a reason to wear underwear so Cloud's removal of his pants now left him totally nude and open to Cloud.
Cloud snaked up Sephiroth's body moving to kiss him. Their tongues met dancing in mid air. Cloud closed the distance licking his tongue along the edge of Sephiroth's lower lip. Sephiroth gasped and Cloud took this as his opportunity easing his tongue into Sephiroth's mouth.
Sephiroth's eyes widened slightly then relaxed into the kiss. The sensation of having Cloud on top of him kissing him deeply was a new experience for him. To say he was enjoying it would've been the hugest understatement of the century. He ground his hips into Cloud causing Cloud to moan into his mouth. They rocked against each other Cloud's pants causing torturous friction. Cloud broke the kiss panting from the lack of air.
He smiled back at Sephiroth then got off the bed. Sephiroth sat up slightly looking at the blonde as he moved back from the bed. Cloud closed his eyes and began swaying his hips to an unheard beat pulling the edge of his shirt revealing his smooth stomach.
Sephiroth moaned as Cloud continued his seductive dance pulling the shirt off and throwing it violently to the floor. Still moving his hips to the beat, Cloud glided a hand up his side brushing his fingers over a taut nipple rubbing it fiercely.
Cloud threw his head back and moaned at the feelings he was creating for himself. He was already extremely close to the edge and he figured Sephiroth was too. He moved his hand from his chest slowly down to the edge of his pants. He threw open the belts with ease letting them fall to the floor. Giving a feral grin to Sephiroth he slowly pulled on the zipper to his pants.
Sephiroth watched with half-lidded eyes. Cloud was making himself horribly hard to resist. He desperately wanted to touch himself but he knew Cloud would be angry with him for doing so. Sephiroth was close to jumping the blonde and ravishing him on the floor. He would've done it too had there not been this interest in what Cloud had planned for him. He pulled out of his thoughts just in time to watch the blondes boxers hit the floor and Cloud slowly walking back towards him.
Cloud climbed back on top of Sephiroth initiating another deep kiss. Sephiroth bucked his hips into Cloud rubbing their erections together. Cloud broke the kiss and slid down Sephiroth's body planting a trail of kisses starting at his neck, then to his chest making loops with his tongue.
When Cloud reached Sephiroth's waiting cock he looked up to see Sephiroth's eyes closed tight and his hand clenching the sheets. Cloud smiled then gave a small lick to Sephiroth's over-sensitive member before taking it all the way into his mouth.
Cloud moved up and down Sephiroth's member reveling in the moans and gasps he received from Sephiroth. Cloud enjoyed this feeling of power over Sephiroth. Being able to make him cry out in pure euphoria aroused Cloud to no end. Sephiroth had his hands buried in Cloud's spikey hair urging him on.
'He's too close,' Cloud thought pulling away from Sephiroth's now straining cock. Sephiroth growled, frustrated that Cloud had stopped. The blonde had an extremely talented mouth and Sephiroth inwardly kicked himself for not letting the blonde touch him sooner. Sephiroth was pulled out of his subconscious when he felt a shift in the bed.
He looked up to see Cloud reaching over him into the drawer. Cloud shuffled around in the drawer looking for the bottle of lotion Sephiroth kept there. Finally finding it he settled himself between Sephiroth's spread legs.
"Are you sure you want this?" Cloud asked applying some of the cream to his fingers. He kneeled between Sephiroth's spread legs, Cloud's fingers right outside of his entrance.
Sephiroth nodded giving Cloud a smile. Such things were so rare that Cloud was a little thrown off. The only time he'd ever seen the man smile other than now had been when they had found each other again in the Coliseum. That smile had washed away so quickly Cloud still wondered if it was just a trick of his mind. But all of that was irrelevant now. They were here, now, and the events that had passed seemed like dust in the wind.
Cloud pushed in finger into the man. Sephiroth let out a quiet hiss in slight pain. It had been a long time since he had allowed anyone to take him and Cloud's fingers were causing slight pain for him.
Noticing Sephiroth's discomfort, Cloud stopped for a moment switching his body weight so he was lying on top of Sephiroth. He lowered his mouth to Sephiroth's neck licking about four centimeters below his left ear. Sephiroth gasped arching his body into Cloud.
With Sephiroth's mind elsewhere Cloud pushed another finger into the man licking and nibbling at the skin on Sephiroth's neck. He moved his fingers in a scissoring motion stretching Sephiroth to accommodate himself. Felling that he was fully prepared, Cloud pulled his fingers out of Sephiroth's tight entrance and sat back between Sephiroth's spread legs.
Cloud spread the lotion over his own shaft then positioned himself between Sephiroth's legs anchoring his weight on his hands which he placed on either side of Sephiroth's hips. The blonde smiled down at the silver haired man lying beneath him. Eyes met again in peaceful silence. Sephiroth moved his hand running it through Cloud's sweat soaked bangs, urging him on in silent plea.
Sephiroth draped his arm over Cloud's back pulling him close. "What are you waiting for koi?" Sephiroth whispered in Cloud's ear. Cloud nodded pushing into the man slowly groaning at the tight heat that surrounded him.
Cloud nearly fainted as he sunk to the hilt into Sephiroth. The heat of taking the taller man combined with Sephiroth's barely stretched entrance was making it very hard for Cloud to keep his control. He felt Sephiroth's hips move upwards impaling himself deeper on Cloud.
Cloud took that as his cue to move and pulled almost all the way out of Sephiroth then plunged back in fast.
Sephiroth hissed at the slight pain and white-hot pleasure. So long had it been since he had been taken that he had forgotten what it was like to be on the bottom. Cloud had worked up a rhythm and was now pounding into him. Sephiroth pushed back on Cloud's thrusts pushing Cloud deeper into his tight passage.
Cloud changed his position slightly and grabbed onto Sephiroth's weeping erection stroking it in time with his thrusts. It was this slight change in position that caused Cloud to hit something that made Sephiroth see stars.
Sephiroth gasped with each time Cloud hit that spot. That was all Sephiroth could take. He came arching up into Cloud his nails digging painfully into Cloud's back. Cloud came a moment later groaning before he collapsed on top of Sephiroth.
Cloud reluctantly pulled out of Sephiroth laying beside him perched up on his arm. "Thank you," he said barely above a whisper. "Forget about that kid. It doesn't matter anymore."
"What?" Sephiroth said sitting up, looking over at Cloud.
"Sora, the battles, this whole Coliseum. It doesn't matter," Cloud repeated.
Sephiroth stared blankly at Cloud. "Are you feeling okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine, why do you ask?"
"You're just different....did being on top mess with your mind?" Sephiroth said smirking at the blonde.
Cloud glared which made Sephiroth burst out laughing, "No! I just...I don't know I've been thinking....Every time we fight someone has to lose. And so their opponent wins. But, every time we fight there's a loser, and he will then strive to avenge himself by fighting more. Fighting begets fighting; there's no end. Though if you stop caring, that endless chain can be broken."
"Wow, you really have been thinking," Sephiroth said staring wide eyed at Cloud. In all the time he'd known Cloud, never had he seen him act so....deep....'It's strange...He doesn't seem like himself...Oh well...'
"The sun will be up in a few hours, we should get some sleep," Sephiroth said looking at the window and the still dark sky.
"Yeah, good night..er..morning," Cloud said lying down and pulling up the blanket.
Sephiroth chuckled lying down as well. He kissed Cloud's forehead pulling the blonde close to him. "Good night, Cloud."
A/N" Sorry that chapter took so long! I think I have difficulty writing this pairing...the first one took a long time too...Oh well! Next chapter!
