Ahh, very sorry for lateness, but i've been sick 3 times (2x thanks to friends xD 1x thanks to my meds) and then holiday stuff yadda yadda
Guest: Haha thank you ;A; it's always so hard as an author to not bring up spoilers in the review answers xD
Tobirion: Aww, i'm glad you like it so much! I didn't have much planned yet, but you gave me an idea when I read your comment, that I've already forgotten again by now... *slapped* buuut i might remember it again soon haha
BIG ANYWAY:
You know i've had the direction of this story planned since last year, well, no, 2013. However... for my fan's sake, I decided to change it a bit for the better.. (which you will only see after the next 5 ish chapters, when i've written them)
At this point I'd like to thank all my favorites and follows as well! C: and remember, reviews are love! Reviews are the air that we authors breathe!
It had only been a few days since Sephiroth's mission in Costa Del Sol had started and I was already missing him a lot.
My thoughts were circling around that fact and the question whether he thought about me too, every now and then. Since he was there with his girlfriend, I assumed that he probably wasn't...
In the past two days I had tried to get some information about Seph and her out of Zack (without sounding too suspicious) however, without too much success. A Zack with his mouth full of papers to read and sign was not a big help.
The only thing I did learn was a confirmation of the subtle hints Sephiroth had left me about his relationship not being all perfect. Zack and him had apparently talked on the phone – and my friend called it "other means of stress Sephiroth was experiencing than the fighting during the mission" which somehow gave me hope that the two wouldn't last.
It was a selfish hope – wishing for a couple to break up, but I already wanted the General too much. So much that this wanting overwhelmed the guilt I felt for wanting them to separate.
Therefore, in the evening, I took out my phone and poked the man virtually, since he hadn't done so yet.
*Remember that you told class you would take photos :)*
Meanwhile, I started preparing scrambled eggs and spinach as dinner.
After I had taken the ingredients out of the fridge, I received an answer.
*Hmm, you mean from the beach? Or the battles? ;)*
I grinned. 'You at the beach...' I answered mentally but chose to give a subtle hint first. *Didn't you mention in class that it was a nudist beach? *_* *
Obviously, I was hoping that he would catch my hint as usual. I cracked the eggs open skillfully – my mother had taught me – and placed the frozen spinach into a pot.
Bzz bzz. *Yeah, of course... I will send you a photo of the old ladies and gents!*
I cringed but chuckled nevertheless. *Eww! … Then I'd rather take one of you, of necessity... ;) *_* *
*Yeaa... Of necessity and of course naked! :P*, he answered me and my grin became wider. I stirred my food and then answered him: *If you are already offering me that, then I have to accept it out of respect... Looking forward to it ;) ;)* At least he hadn't forgotten about doing this with me... I was glad.
*Wow, what burden you are willing to take on... unbelievable! ;)*, was his reply.
Now, thinking back to a night a few days ago, which had reminded me of his beach stay in the first place... *... which reminds me, I did dream of us being at the beach together...*
I blushed a little, thinking back. It had just been one of these 'I only remember 2 minutes of it after waking up' dreams, but I certainly did remember one thing...
*Really, is that so? Tell me more...*
Now, there I had his curiosity but didn't know what to do with it, since it was a tiny bit personal... 'How to explain...'... *Well, I don't remember much... other than us walking along it... then we stopped at a cliff, looking into the sunset... then at eachother*, I was blushing a bit harder now, unsure whether to go on. *... and then we sort of leaned in...*
I had to find a way to become less tense, therefore I added a cheeky *Well, let's say, at least in a dream you are a damn good kisser ;) *_* *
Judging from the smell, my food was done now. I felt a little bad and shy when Sephiroth didn't give me an answer until I was done with my dinner. I accredited it to him being busy again, but after ten more minutes I received a quick *Well, at least that ;)*
My heart made a jump when I read that and joy filled me. It felt unbelievably good to message with him again, it had really been too long for my taste... 'And talking about such things with him... I would have never ever imagined...'
Then again, it made me think again as well... Was he doing that whole thing with other students as well? Was I the first? Or had he done this many times before? With females, or with males like me?
Now I was feeling pretty uncertain. The feeling kept nagging on me even by the time I had already moved to lying in bed when it was time to sleep. The thought of me not being the only one made me feel uncomfortable and... not so special anymore. I had no idea why, but he made me feel special like nothing and noone else in the world. After another few minutes, I couldn't take it anymore.
*By the way... do you get these compliments a lot?* I messaged him. I deliberately chose to ask this way because it sounded more innocent than "Flirting around" or even "Sexy talk with other students" - which I was pretty certain – he wouldn't answer or react any friendly to. Obviously, that was the last thing I wanted to achieve, so I chose "compliments" which seemed kind of appropriate. I did want an answer, after all...
He actually did not take long to answer. *No... even though some people may suggest something else...*
I chose to 'play dumb' so he wouldn't feel tempted to throw me into the 'fanboy' category. *No, I wouldn't have thought that, anyway!* Actually, I was surprised that he said that. Who wouldn't compliment this man in any way? Beside the usual "Wow, you did great in that Wutai War" or "Your sword techniques are so inspiring!" At least, as for me... I would have a bunch of compliments for him.
'Maybe they're afraid to compliment him for his personality... I wouldn't blame them.' I chuckled to myself. Yes, he was an awe-inspiring man...
*Thank god!*, was his answer to my last text. I left it at that and put my phone aside to get a good night's sleep, after all, it was exam day tomorrow...
Sorry for a shorter one, next one's longer (and the one after not finished yet x.x) let me know what you think, please c:
