Hey! This is a kinda short chapter, but at least I updated!

Cloud stepped off the train, sighing, looking down. He wasn't any strange animal, he didn't have wings, a tail, fangs, or nails, he didn't have strange clothing on. Heck...everything was perfect! He looked around and saw Leon, Riku, and Sora step off the train, and he smiled. They'd just gotten back from the Pride Lands. And he was happy that he was no longer a lion.

Leon dropped his bags, rushed forward, put his arms around Cloud's waist and kissed him hard. He'd waited four days for a kiss. FOUR DAYS! He'd already demanded entrance to Cloud's mouth, and claimed it in Cloud's shock.

Leon felt like he'd been walking in a desert for days, and now he was at his oasis. Cliche as that saying was, that really was the only thing he could think of at the moment. He could actually literally feel the water lapping at his feet. Wait...Literally!

Leon pulled back without letting go of Cloud and looked down. There, beneath his feet, was sand. And farther (well, they were actually quite close) was a beach. The water was calm and the sandy beach had no other occupants. Leon, having never been to a beach, gazed at it in wonder, his eyes searching every aspect. Well...until he felt something nipping at his neck.

Leon laughed a little and looked down to see Cloud looking up at him with adorable pouting lips and full eyes.

"Jealous of a beach?" Leon asked putting his hand to Cloud's cheek, he smiled and reached down, kissing Cloud carefully on the lips, "You have nothing to be jealous of,"

Cloud reached up and kissed Leon hard, his tongue already slipping into the other's mouth. He moaned into Leon's lips and his hands were on either side of Leon's face. He smiled, pulling away from Leon. Cloud was pondering something, and had been wondering about it the whole time since Leon had told him about his past.

"How old were you when you got engaged to that lady?" Cloud asked, looking into his boyfriend's eyes. Leon could still see shadowing hurt in those deep and beautiful eyes, and he smiled warmly,

"Fifteen, three years before I met you," Leon said, kissing Cloud's forehead. Cloud sighed in relief, happy that Leon had answered without hesitation. But he never knew Leon to be one of those irresponsible people that got married too young because they claimed they were 'in love'. Not that Cloud had anything against people in love, it's just, he and Leon barely confessed their actual love to each other, after three years of knowing him. Wait...

"That means it's been six years after you left her?" Cloud asked, tilting his head to the side.

Leon blushed and looked to the side, "actually...she left me,"

Cloud was shocked. Actually shocked. He looked up at Leon with that 'deer in the headlights' look, his eyes wide and his eyebrows raised. He looked up at Leon and his head was still tilted to the side.

"I'm glad she did though," Leon said, whispering into Cloud's ear, not being able to look at that completely adorable look Cloud was giving him, "I learned later that I didn't need her. I'm just so glad that she left me, so that I could find you,"

A wide toothy grin spread out on Cloud's face and he looked up at Leon with closed eyes, his face shining, "That's good!"

Leon could see the little falter in the curve of Cloud's lips, he could see Cloud's eyebrows twist a little to show his pain.

Leon embraced Cloud hard around the waist, pushing the man's face to his chest, taking a deep breath and nearly yelling, "I told you! Never doubt me! I don't want her back, and all I want is you!" He looked down at Cloud, "When will you understand that?"

Cloud reached up and kissed Leon lightly, "Now,"

He pushed away quickly and went running toward where he saw a paved road, "Come on! I gotta go find Sora! I need your help!"

Leon felt that large absence of Cloud, but he followed anyway.

Cloud walked forward and looked around, trying to catch sight of his brother or his brother's boyfriend. There was a huge crowd around a huge hotel. It was weird. But Cloud ran for it anyway, seeing a large poof of brown hair that was undoubtably Sora. He walked forward, and pushed through the crowd, trying to catch someone's attention, "What's going on!"

"The king is making an announcement!"

Cloud didn't get this. Kings? What in the world. Cloud pushed forward and tried to follow the brown spiky-head. He lunged forward and felt something grasp his shoulder. He turned and saw Riku, who was looking at him with a worried look, "Where's Sora?"

"I think I see him," Cloud said, then grabbed Riku's arm, pulling him forward, "Come on, I'll help,"

Cloud lunged forward and caught sight of the huge stage everyone was gathering around. What was weirder was that there was...a mouse. I'm serious, a mouse! There was a weird looking mouse with huge black ears and a small body. Standing next to him was a girl mouse in an elegant dress. What a weird town this is. People crowding around to get a word from their MOUSE king. Cloud would have laughed out loud if he weren't getting trampled.

He looked around, trying to find that brown spike-ball. Cloud was getting nervous. He didn't like being around too many people at once (Like I explained in 'neighbors') and right now, it was about five hundred and seventy two too much! Cloud looked around and bumped into someone, "Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you, I really, really mean it!"

He backed up and bumped into someone else, "Oh, I'm really, really sorry, I didn't mean it! I swear!"

He looked around and kept bumping into people, giving longer and longer apologies. He was doing this so much people would bump into him just to see what his apology was. This must not be a very nice town, because people were just pushing away at a guy they'd never met before.

"Sorry! I'm very, truly, sorry! I didn't mean it! Someone pushed me, and then I pushed you, and that made you push the other person! I'm really, really sorry!"

Cloud put his hands to his head and clenched his teeth in a desperate try to shut up. Shut up, shut up, shut up! You're ranting is just getting you into more trouble!

Cloud felt everyone suddenly stop and he looked up to see Leon standing over him, a murderous glare on his face. But what made everyone stop was that the mouse king had actually gotten off the stage and walked over to where Cloud was now sitting, having been pushed over by a rather rude person,

"Ahh!" Cloud looked up at him with a scared face, then waved his arms about and smiled weakly, "Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! I really didn't mean to make you come down here and do anything! You're probably mad and I really don't want you to be mad! I really sorry! It was all my fault and you'll probably throw me in jail or something! I'm really, really, sorry!"

The mouse smiled and offered a hand out to Cloud, "I don't mind, I just don't want anyone uncomfortable. My name's Mickey, and you look like you could use a rest,"

Why was the rest of the town so rude, yet the king so nice? Cloud didn't get it, but took the hand and pushed himself to his feet, Leon's hands on his shoulders.

"Are you alright?" Leon asked, his eye's creased in concern.

"I'm fine, I just really need to sit down," Cloud laughed.

Really, really short chapter, but I need more ideas! I need idea's for what worlds they should go to. So, feel free to give any!
