Chapter 18

Glass Half-empty

Sora looked around the dinning room, Sephiroth sat across from her but other than that no one else was in sight.

"So, where is everyone else?" Sora asked. Sephiroth looked up from his food but didn't answer.

"Not to talkative huh?" Sora said turning back to her food.

The rest of dinner was very quiet which made Sephiroth happy and Sora uneasy.

As soon as Sora was finished she stood up to leave.

"Well um great dinner I'll just-" she started. Sephiroth took her arm and led her out onto the balcony.

"Er…" Sora began but just then she heard something like Clouds voice from below. And then she heard Zidane's voice as well.

"Hay do you hear that?" Sora asked Sephiroth bending over the railing to seem if she could find where the voices had been coming from.

"Nothing" Sephiroth said. Sora looked up at him

"Huh so you do talk" Sora smiled.

Sephiroth didn't reply.

"And now you're not talking…Again" Sora said her smile fading.

Silence followed this… a VERY long silence.

Sephiroth tapped Sora on the shoulder.

"Ye-" Sora started but was suddenly interrupted when he (I bet everyone knows…. --) He kissed her (YAY!)

"W-wait hold on um look I don't um, think of you that way…" Sora said quickly, but Sephiroth paid her no attention he just walked back into the inn looking very smug.

"No point…he wasn't listening…" Sora said dejected.

"NO!" came a wail from below the balcony.

"K-kuja?" Sora asked bending over the railing again.

"OH SORA DID HE…DID HE!" Kuja cried looking up at her. All the other boys were there as well looking up at her.

"W-what are you guys doing out there!" Sora yelled down to them.

"Sephiroth locked us out!" Yuffie yelled.

"Oh…well…I'll unlock the door for you guys" Sora said.

Once everyone was back inside Kuja was fawning over Sora and all the other guys looked very unhappy.

"Guess it's not that special huh?" Cloud whispered to Zidane.

"Huh?" Zidane asked.

"Kissing Sora I mean, Sephiroth did too so it's not that special anymore" Cloud said cooly.

Leon was grumbling to himself "Stupid Sephiroth…taking advantage… not a real man…"

"L-LOOK AT MY DINNER!" Arith yelled looking at the half-empty dish that used to have a turkey in it.

Donald was tapping his foot muttering to himself about how Sora wasn't taking her destiny seriously.

Goofy was playing with flowers.

And all seemed to be right it the world… OR DID IT?
