AN: Oh my god! I'm SOO sorry! I haven't written any chapters since last year but I've been haveing a rough time so I guess it slipped my mind! But atleast I'm updated now:P Sorry for SUCH the long wait! I love you guys!

Cloud and Yuffie were out of town. Yuffie looked around and sighed softly to herself, muttering to Cloud, "This is gonna be a LOOONG trip."...Cloud gave a very soft chuckle, "You think we're going to walk all the way there?". Suddenly, Cloud put his fingers to his lips letting out a big, loud whistle as two beautiful, black chocobos ran towards them.

"I figured I could get you to come back with me so I brought 2.", Cloud said walking up to one and hopping on it's back. "Wow, you really think things through.", Yuffie commented as she hopped onto the other Chocobo. Not even a second later they were already running as fast as they could, across the ocean, and across the lands. Finally they came up to a small village in the middle of nowhere called "Aroni". They hopped of the Chocobos and entered into the town, Cloud quickly walked to the house near the entrance. The house was small but very cute. It was a red brick house, with a porch wrapped around the front of the house. Yuffie thought to herself, "I'll never forget this day...because I've never seen the sky so blue..".

She then made her way into the house, seeing all her old friends standing around in the first room. They all gasped and smiled widely when they saw Yuffie, they came up and hugged her and told her how much they missed her. Which she really wasn't quite listening because she was staring at the door to the right of her. It was the only other room in the house so that was probably where Tifa was.

Yuffie was worried about Tifa but then again she was worried about how Cloud felt about her. She then decided she needed to step out for fresh air. So she turned to the door walking out onto the porch. She propped her elbows onto the railing of the porch, and stared at the beautiful, sunset orange sky. The sun was setting and it was the most beautiful thing she's ever seen. She thought of how much she loved Cloud and how much he loved Tifa and not her. She also thought about Tifa's sickness. There was so much on her mind and she didn't know what to do anymore. So she decided that it was a bad idea for her to come and that in the morning she was heading back home to only hope to forget about Cloud because obviously, he didn't care for her the same way she did for him.

Meanwhile inside, the doctor came out of the room looking at the group in the house. "She should recover in about 3 days. I gave her the Twink Herb and she's resting." the Doctor said, walking out the door and off the porch towards the small hospital alittle bit down the way.

Everyone inside started cheering, Yuffie was happy, don't get her wrong, but she was just so torn up inside. Cloud then suddenly walked out onto the porch standing beside her. Yuffie kept her gaze toward the sky, sensing his presence. "You know..I'm glad she'll be okay...but I'm also kind of worried about you..you're acting kinda funny. You don't wanna be around anyone or anything..what's up?" Cloud spoke softly.

"It's nothing.", Yuffie said keeping her gaze at the sky which is now dark, and a few stars shining above. Cloud reached up, placing his hand on her shoulder, "I'm not stupid, Yuff. What's wrong?" Cloud said, this time his voice alittle worried sounding. Yuffie sighed softly, turning toward him.."I need to tell you something...I'm..in love with you. I've always loved you...I've just never said it."

Cloud looked alittle surprised his face then turned into a frown, "But...I love..Tifa...I'm sorry I can't return your feelings...I'm really sorry."...Yuffie's eyes began to fill with tears as she turned around, "I knew it was a bad idea to come here..look give Tifa a hug for me and tell her I'm glad she's okay..I'm going home." and with that Yuffie walked off the porch and out of town, leaving Cloud there with a hurt expression on his face...
