Chapter 2

When I woke back up, Leon wasn't in the room. "Hrrm." I wondered aloud.I got up and slipped on my slippers and walked out

my door. I looked around and found the clock, 4:30 A.M. in the morning. "Dang!" I whispered loudly. I walked down the hallway

into the living room. I noticed that someone was sleeping peacefully on the couch. I walked over to it to see who it was. But when

I finally got close enough to see who it was, he woke up and grabbed my throat. Then he noticed who it was, and let go

immediately. "Dang Amber! Don't scare me like that!" Said my long time friend, Sephiroth. "When did you get here Sep?" I

asked. "About an hour or so ago. I decided to take a nap till you woke up" he explained. "Oh, well thanks for thinking about me!"

I said as I kissed him on the cheek. "All in a days work!" He said as he got up. Also as he got up I noticed that he had a very

muscular build. "Uh. . ." he said as he noticed that I was looking at him. "How are you?" He caught my attention again. "Um, I'm

fine. But still a little exhausted. . ." I finished that statement with a pitiful Yawn. He laughed. I love his laugh, I thought as I laughed

with him. "Well then you should go back to sleep." He announced. "But I come down to get a drink and I have yet to get one." I

looked at him accusingly. "Oh, Well. Then my bad." He said as he got up and pulled me up into his arms. "You don't have to

carry me there you know." I said. But in my head I was screaming 'OMG'. "Well maybe I want to carry you." He said.

"Whatever." I said, only because I knew once he had fixed his mind on something, there was no getting him off of it. When we got

to the kitchen I said "You can put me down now. . ." I said. He looked at me, and then he set me down "uh… Thanks" I said,

unsure of what to think of the weird gesture. Then I walked over to the cabinet and grabbed me a glass. I was about to get me

some water when Sephiroth Grabbed the cup from my hand and said "No, Let me. I wasn't there to protect you from Laura, and

now I feel indebted to you." I backed up with nothing to say. So he wanted to protect me. Well that's a new one. I sat down while

I was waiting on him. He handed me my drink. I drank almost half of it and set it down on the table and got up. "O.k. now that I

am rehydrated, I shall go to bed." I said as I was walking toward the stairs. But before I could take a step up the stairs, Sephiroth

grabbed my hand and said "Here, Let me help you." He insisted as he picked me up and walked up the stairs. "Hey You. . ." I

started but Sephiroth interrupted me saying "Shh. . . Relax." And suddenly I was getting very sleepy. Then I said "It's not very

nice to put spells on people." He chuckled. When I was finished I leaned my head against Sephiroth's shoulder. "Well in your case

it is nice." He said as he laid me down in my bed. Right before he was about to leave I grabbed his hand and said "Sephiroth,

Promise me something." He turned around and said "What?" I was on the verge of falling asleep, but I struggled out, "Promise me

you will never leave me." He looked flustered. Then a look of recognition of something came over his face. "Promise" he said as

he smiled down at me. I was falling asleep but I still felt him lean down and kiss me softly on the lips. "Love you." He whispered

softly into my ear. I wanted to say it back but I was going into dreamland.
