A/N: Heeeell! After almost a year of waiting, this fanfic is back! I really had no idea what to write about... but I think it's fine! Please tell me what you think... is there anybody actually waiting for this to come out?

Malik: She also wants to add that she doesn't own Final Fantasy, me, my voice in my head, my white-haired love, Heero Yui and his obsession, Kamui and his problems and so on!

Authoress: Yeah! That man's right, give him sugar! And now, on to the story!

Cloudy sky

Chapter Seven, I'm just a dreamer

Cloud was sitting in his small room, trying to rethink everything that happened the previous day.He was drunk, okay, that was quite usual lately. But what Sephiroth told him... it was not very normal, really. The bastard never apologised to anybody before! Was Cloud a chosen one? If so, he preferred to go back to being just a thief... Being special to Seph meant being in great trouble, and the blonde wasn't really up for that. He would really prefer finding somebody nice enough to love, then settle down with them and... well, live happily ever after. But noooo, his lovely brother just had to show up in his life again! (Or was it he who showed up in Seph's life? Never mind.) And ruin everything! How t y p i c a l ! And eeeevil!

His head hurt like one hell and he decided to never drink even a single drop of alcohol again. Of course, it was in vain, because he was sure Squall and the others would take him for a drink or two later, but... can't a man have some hope? Well, after that vain decision, Cloud stood up and left his little sanctuary to do his usual job – serve the clients of Lunatic Pandora: Kamui Shirou and his sado-maso problems, Heero Yui and his obsessions, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiwa who always came together, Malik Ishtar who was silently whining about his white-haired love, and eventually even Don Corneo himself. The man did recognise him and actually forgave him straight away. He just said that Cloud was a great actor to trick him that way, and then casually ordered some white wine. Malik, on the other hand, appeared to be a bigger problem... he wanted to get drunk and forget that he had some kind of schisofrenia and a white-haired love who was in fact an ancient spirit from Egypt, like every sane person did... notice the sarcasm? After three men in white clothes transported the boy safely into a place where he could feel safe (and everybody else either), Cloud moved on to the next client, Heero. He seemed to be waiting for somebody, but ordered a beer and said nothing. Not very talkative, perhaps Vincent would take better care of him... and so, the time was slowly passing by when suddenly, with an effect (drumroll!)Sephiroth entered. He saw Cloud first thing after his entrance and sighed. It's not easy to be the main bad guy... especially when you're so freaking ooc! But anyway, he headed to his supposed „brother" (what will that authoress think of next? It's turning into a soap opera, like The Bold and The Beautiful!!!) and also, just like Heero Yui, said nothing. He stared at Cloud with his strangely-coloured eyes, and stared and... stared. And finally, Cloud snapped, 'Okay, bastard, I forgive you! Just stop staring at me like that or they'll think something happened between us again!!!'

Vincent blinked. Now, that was unexpected! Cloud, just like that, with no apparent reason, yelled at Sephiroth-sama, and Sephiroth-sama... grinned with glee! Isn't this world really amazing? And how to understand what happens around you, when everybody is so... complicated! Maybe it means it's time to become complicated, too? Oh, but he was already complicated! Had he been more complicated, he wouldn't even understand himself! Ah... he didn't, anyway... But that's when Zack came from the kitchen, saw Sephiroth's joyful expression and... decided he wanted to be happy too. He hugged Vincent, who yelped in surprise at this turn of events, and kissed the man on the cheek.

'I love you, Vince!' He exclaimed, and now it was everybody in the room's turn to stare wide-eyed. Was Zack kidding?! Or wasn't he?! OMG, what is happening, the world is ending, mayday, mayday, save our souls! Mr Loire, HELP!

'And what does it mean? Why are my waiters making out in this public place?!' Came the awaited voice of Mr Laguna Loire, who looked kinda... flushed and out of order himself. Or maybe it was only a hallucination, caused by Kiros' knowing smirk and his smug look... Anyway, nobody really took the owner of the bar seriously. He realised that quickly and sighed. So unfair... Sephiroth was still grinning at Cloud, who was still yelling, but now at Zack, who was still hugging Vincent, who was still trying to comprehend his situation. And the one who solved this problem was (drumroll) Squall, who had quite enough of everybody being so happy but him. He shouted, 'Back to work, lazy-asses, or I'll play some Britney Spears songs aloud!!!'

It worked. And soon, Zack and Vincent were carrying trays around, Sephiroth was sitting in the kitchen, waiting for Cloud, because he wanted to talk to him, and said Cloud was also carrying the orders he took before around, singing „Ya soshla s uma" under his breath. Everything was as back to normal as it only could, and then, Seifer came. The first thing HE saw, was Squall's quite nice butt when the teen was trying to lace his shoe. And that was the beginning of something really, really mysterious. Of something that changed the life in Lunatic Pandora forever. And what was it...? Hah. You want to know. But I won't tell you, because I'm so eeeeeeeevil!

... actually, I will tell you! Seifer decided that he had enough of playing hard to get to Squall and he walked over to the teen. He poked his back and Squall jumped, startled. And then, he almost fell to the floor, but fortunately, Seifer held him firmly. Without another world, he lifted the dark-haired teen from the ground and casually took him away, not really paying attention to the once again surprised audience. Yeah, the guests were definitely having an interesting day today. And so did the waiters. And the whores. Irvine and Zell were actually having fun from the beginning of the day, because they had this day off, but hell, who cares? Anyway, when everybody though nothing new could happen – at least nothing shocking – Sephiroth announced:

'This is very important! I decided to become a monk! All my wealth will be given to charity, except for some millions of dollars that will go to my younger brother! I no longer wanna be an ooc bad guy!' Maybe he didn't realise that now, he became an ooc good guy... anyway, Cloud wondered what had Seph drank today and suggested that his brother should rethink his decision. But Sephiroth knew what he was doing (he always listened to the white mice in his head after smoking some of that plant in Hojo's room...) and said, 'I know that you will miss me, my brother, but my decision is the last! Take good care of my money (because one day I'll be back for them)!'

'Yes, Sephiroth-sama!' Cloud exclaimed as a great younger brother that he was. And after that, Sephiroth left, never to come back again.

Cloud woke up with a start. What was that dream? Maybe too much alcohol or something... yeah must be it. Sephiroth as a monk? Yeah, fat chance! Well, he thought as he looked at the clock, time to start another day at work... good morning, Lunatic Pandora!

A/N: So, what say you? Is it fine enough? Is it funny? Tell me!

Malik: (from the mental hospital) I appeared here, and my yami did, and my love did! Yeyeye! (giggle)

Authoress: Yes... exactly what I wanted to say.
