I do not own FFVII nor any of its characters,however the story idea is mine. "Cloti"main pairing.Also a hint of Yuff/Reno (cause they're so childish they go good together).

In Love,But not with you

Zack twirled Aeris around for hours...for as long as the party lasted. Sephiroth was fast asleep on the couch, Reno on the floor, booze all around him. Yuffie was surrounded by money from card games she had no idea she had won. Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Strife seemed to have retired to the lobby for a ' smoke '. Rude was slumped over the table and Barret was cursing profusely for his lost money. Kadaj, Azoo, and Loz seemed to be imitaiting Sephiroth, his loyal followers indeed, pretending to be asleep in random places. Cloud shook his head at the three and carryed an asleep Tifa upstairs. He opened his door with one foot, a skill not easily mastered, pushed it open and closed the door behind him. He gently layed her down, tucked her in and kissed her lips lightly. He turned to leave when her hand shot out quick and grabbed the hilt of his pants.

" Had to make it look like a nonobvious idea to the others " Tifa smiled, her eyes still closed. Had they both gone awake upstairs, it would have been obvious, but Tifa had pretended sleep had taken her by surprise. Cloud blinked a few times before smirking at her.

" And people call me the liar ".

" Acting and lying are two different things " Tifa laughed as she sat up, eyes fully opened.

" And what will they think if I don't return and they think your asleep? "

" Please, Zack and Aeris are to distracted. Yuffie's trying to figure out how she became richer, Sephiroth, Reno, Kadaj, Loz, Azoo, and Rude are all out cold. And our fathers don't know whats going on down stairs so how could they possibly know whats going on upstairs? "

" I love you " Cloud smiled as he leaned down to kiss her again. Tifa kissed him back before pulling away, a smile on her face.

" How could you not? And I would surely hope you do, you have to put up with me for the rest of your life ".

" And thats hard? "

" We'll see now won't we? " Tifa tilted her head to the side, her adorable innocent look. Cloud smirked. Tifa smiled back at him and framed his face with her hands.

" You promise to love me forever? " she asked seriously, she'd be damned if their relationship turned out like her own parents. Cloud grabbed her wrists and lowered them from his face and put them on his heart. She knew if he was to lie, the heart would beat twice off rythem.

" Forever ". No beat changed. Tifa smiled happily and hugged him tightly.

" Even if I told you no sex till the wedding? " Tifa smiled.

" Even though it would kill me, yes ". Tifa smiled again.

You could tell just how nervous Cloud was, shaking at the alter. Zack nudged him in the arm.

" Relax would you? Jeez, your scaring the guests ". Cloud swatted at him, telling him to ' shut it '.

" You'll get this same feeling Zack, I promise you ".

" Nervousness? I highly doubt it ".

" No, you'll feel the twisting gut pain cause I'll knock the shit out of you before your reception ".

" Is it that bad? "

" You'll see " Cloud whispered. The all to familar bride music began to play. Everyone stood as brides maids walked down the isle with their escorts of Cloud's friends. Cloud's stomach jumped in anticpitation, doing several flips both backwards and forwards. He breathed through his mouth to keep himself calm as a hooded veiled figure stepped out. Tifa had changed her dress into a strapless form fitting white dress. Yes it was a lie, the color and all, but no one knew but her and Cloud. She held onto her father's arm, a smile on her face underneath the veil. Tears glossed her eyes, making the uneasiness go away. Cloud smiled as she walked closer to him. No one in that church had a dry eye by the end of the reception.

Tifa began to grow dizzy with how many times Zack twirled her. But then again, Aeris had warned her that it would happen.

" ZACK! You're going to make me throw up on my dress " Tifa laughed. Suddenly Zack let go and she spun out, not stopping until someone dipped her low. She opened her eyes, Cloud's face swam in her vision.

" Hi honey " she laughed dizzily. Cloud smiled as he straightened.

" Yo Zack! What'd you do to my wife? " Cloud nudged his friend. He blinked a few times, it was amazing how the words ' my wife ' tingled on his lips. Tifa liked the title greatly as she hugged him tightly. She buried her face in the crook of his neck, her breath tickling him.

" I'm so happy " she whispered as she danced with him. Cloud found himself smiling, in reality, he'd never been this happy.

" Me to " he kissed the top of her head as he spun them around once.

" Ugh...no more spinning for awhile please ".

" Heh...right ".

Tifa looked out the plane window as the sights below her faded in and out of the sun. Cloud smiled as he closed his eyes, letting his head rest on her shoulder. Tifa's hand snaked up and moved through his golden spikes, a smile caressing her lips. She was excited to arrive for their honeymoon. He had asked her if there was anywhere she desired to go, anywhere at all. He was a little surprised when she responded with ' Paris? ' But he kept his promise, and was taking her there now. Yes the eight hour flight was to be suffered through, but they would be arriving now in twenty minutes. Lights made the city look like the inside of a computer. Tifa rested back against her chair and closed her eyes, her hand still ruffling Cloud's hair. She was glad to be out of her wedding dress, and not have anymore people ask her for a dance. She had switched the outfit for her more favorite of black riding clothes, Cloud had as well. Aeris was still her usual self and demanded she bring her back something, even though it was their honeymoon. Cloud had responded with ' we'll bring you back a baby how's that ? ' It had caused Zack to laugh and answered with ' that'll take to damn long '. They'd only be gone for a wee, they wanted to be back for Zack's wedding.

" Tired? " Cloud asked quietly so he didn't disturb those sleeping around him.

" No not really " the seven hour difference in France and the long flight hadn't really at all tired her.

" Thats good " Cloud whispered seductively in her ear, they were, after all,on their honeymoon. Tifa smirked.

" I figured it would be for this honeymoon thing to work out ".

" Is there anything else you will need Mr. and Mrs. Strife? " A servant asked them. They planned on staying at a lodge Alex Strife owned, and it was called earlier for it to be cleaned and such.

" Nah...we'll be good...have the rest of the week off " Cloud answered, his arm around Tifa's waist. The servants bowed as they got into their cars and drove home. Cloud moved forward and closed the door softly before locking its many bolts. The lodge was very spacious indeed, very beautiful as well with quite a view of all of France.

" Mrs. Strife huh?...I hear those are very rare to find in this world " Tifa said with a smile.

" Considering so far your the only one, yeah it is " Cloud smiled as he turned to face her.

" Lucky for you I'm yours " Tifa wrapped her arms around his neck, enjoying his warmth.

" Bedroom? "

" Carry me...your supposed to ". Cloud picked Tifa up bridal style and walked to the master bedroom.

" Am I going to carry you forever now? "

" Only when I ask " Tifa smiled. Cloud laughed.

" Guess I'll be hearing that alot ".

" Hmm...no...I'll walk sometimes...I'm just going to take full advantage of this honeymoon thing " Tifa smiled again. Cloud layed her down on the soft sheets, their lips connecting. Tifa moved her hands to his shirt, tugging on it ruthlessly. She pulled it over his head, breaking their kiss only but a moment. Tifa's fingers traced over his muscles, enjoying them tense beneath her touch. Her fingers expertly began to unfasten the ties and loops that kept Cloud's pants up. She pulled away from their kiss and looked up at him.

" A night like this and you have to wear the most difficult pants you have? "

" Yep ".

" I'm going to end up tearing them in a minute ".

" Don't, I like these ".

" Then where's the magic button that makes them come off ? " Tifa asked, tilting her head. Cloud laughed as he kissed her lips again. He grabbed her hand and put it on the front button of his pants and made her push. With a click all the ties and loops undid themselves.

" Whoa...I didn't think there really was one " Tifa laughed in his mouth. She felt his fingers remove her vest and shirt, then felt a smile of surprise from him. She could read that smile as she kissed him harder to ensure him it wasn't a lie. That and she was actually relieved she didn't wear a bra for the long trip, her vest made it so you couldn't tell. Cloud broke their kiss as his lips trailed across her jawline, down to her collar bone. His tongue glided over her pulse and his previous markings. He drifted lower, still leaving a trail. Tifa jumped when she felt his teeth teasing her breast. She moaned his name as his tongue flicked her nipple, his hands drifting to her hips and undoing her pants.

The material slid off in a matter of moments, bringing the undergarment with it. Cloud tossed it aside and picked up his body.

" How good are you at holding still? "

" What? " Tifa asked breathily, what was he talking about? He charmed a smile at her.

" Do you think you could hold still? "

" For what ? "

" Just say yes or no ".

" I guess ".

" I'll hold you to that...close your eyes " Cloud sat up and crossed his arms. Tifa sighed and closed them, it felt a little odd since she was the only one without any clothes. She felt his hands trace over her hips and down her legs, forcing them apart, though there was no resistance. She felt them go back up to her hips and hold them down firmly, did he think she'd run? She then felt something soft on her womb. Her face contorted into confusion, then the familar senses kicked in. Only his hair was that soft. Stars exploded into her vision as she felt his tongue glide in her womanhood. Her mouth opened but no sound came out at the over whelming pleasure taking its course. Now she knew why he held her hips down. Tifa's fingers entangled themselves in the sheets below her, hearing them tear as her nails cut through them. Even Aeris hadn't prepared her with this information, probably because it would be a bit embaressing to talk about. Tifa squirmed against his hold, she couldn't help it.

"...C...Cloud " Tifa whispered frantically, she couldn't breathe. It was all to much, so much to deal with. Tifa's eyes glazed over completely as she arched her neck, a moan escaping her. She wanted more, so much more, until it was to much to bear. She bit down on her lower lip, her hands slowly moving to Cloud. Her body jolted once...twice...

" Mnf...C...Cloud...I...I need you...now " she breathed her climax. She heard him chuckle as he moved up. His tongue left a trail up to her neck. He moved his lips over to her's, feeling her need drive him on.He shrugged off his pants and kicked them away. Tifa's legs wrapped around his torso, bringing him the very closest he could to her. Cloud smiled in her mouth and pulled away slowly.

" Whats the matter Teef? "

" Your going to drive me crazy " she breathed in his ear.

" Then my goal is set " he laughed again as his hips grinded against her's. Tifa growled at her annoyance and pushed on Cloud's shoulders, forcing him backwards. Her sudden strength surprised him as she forced his back against the mattress.

" You better pray you didn't give me mako of some sort " Tifa said huskily. Cloud raised his eyebrows in amusment. Tifa straddled herself to his hips and held onto his shoulders, nails digging into his flesh as she rode him. Cloud's hands gripped her waist, keeping her from leaving. Tifa leaned down and captured his lips with her own, their tongues dancing in rythem. Tifa could feel his muscles tightening with every move. Cloud moaned in Tifa's mouth, he'd be damned if he came before she did. He sat up, their bodies molding together as one. He flipped their position, lying her lightly against the pillows. Softness of the sheets and the roughness of him, turned her on even further. She whimpered in his mouth, her legs holding tightly to him. Cloud thrusted deep into her, making her shudder. She was his, by both law and love. Every thrust made her soar to new heights. Tifa's nails raked across his back as her legs squeezed his hips, her climax hitting. Her muscles contracted all around him, sending him over the edge. He slowly eased himself onto his elbows and nuzzled her neck.

" I guess I should expect this often huh? "

" Yep ".

One year later

Cloud unlocked the front door of the manor he owned with Tifa. He decided to get a job and chose to be a teacher at the SOLDIER Academy. He wanted Tifa to do whatever she pleased, and she had chose to be a stay at home wife with Aeris. They spent the day with eachother having fun, and night with their husbands. Zack learned of the nervousness at his wedding, and the reception had gone well. Zack worked with Cloud since it was what they were best at. The industries joined together and Sephiroth took over, letting his father stay home. Sephiroth had finally got into a relationship himself with Kadaj's sister, Serenity. Serenity had taken a liking to Tifa and Aeris and became fast friends. She had silver hair, naturally, not by dye. Cloud was very pleased with his life and still maintained a relationship with his friends. When he opened the door, the sound of the television greeted him. He dropped his keys in a bowl on a stand near the door. They ' plunked ' loudly. The television shut off and out walked Tifa, a black material dress hugging her figure. Cloud raised his eyebrows, but she didn't answer.

" I got you a present " she said with a smile. Cloud tilted his head.

" Its not my birthday, not our anniversary, not valentines day, not any holiday...why did you get me a present? "

" Well one, because I wanted to and two...I'm surprised you know when all those dates are "

" You doubt me? "

" No...do you want your present? "

" Sure " Cloud shrugged as Tifa went back into the living room and retrieved a box from the couch. She handed it to him and watched him remove the ribbon and open the lid. He stopped as he looked inside, before pulling the object out. A book. It was light blue with golden writing on the front. Cloud read the title for the ninth time. ' 1,000 unique baby names ' . His jaw dropped as the book fell to the floor. His arms wrapped around Tifa's small frame and hugged her tightly to him. Now, he was the happiest he could ever be.
