I am back again with the third chapter of my story :) I know its short, sorry. I promise I will make the chapters longer in future.
Cloud had come home to find a lot of his friends there with Tifa and the two children, Yuffie, Barret, Vincent, Cid, Red XII and of course Reno and Rude were there, nagging Tifa about the package he was meant to deliver. As he walked in, they all stopped talking and stared at him carrying the strange girl.
"Hey Spikes, who's your girlfriend" Sniggered Reno, earning himself a kick from Cloud as he walked past him towards the stairs. They all followed him and watched as he deposited her on his bed.
"Cloud…" Tifa began looking at the girl, she appeared hurt.
"I found her outside Midgar… being attacked by a creature… I have seen her before" He whispered looking at the girl.
"Where?" Asked Vincent coming up to stand beside him.
"In my dreams." He answered looking from the girl towards the group of people. None of them seemed shocked at this revelation and all turned to look at the girl.
Cloud had been sitting watching the girl for a while, he didn't even know her name but he felt like he should watch over her. His friends had gone downstairs to eat, which he had refused. Tifa had made soup for them all, he had to admit that she was a good cook but he would heat some up later after he knew that the girl would be alright. He frowned and crossed his arms over his chest. 'Is she connected to me somehow' he thought as he remembered his dream concerning her and Sephiroth. The girl groaned and her eyes fluttered open slightly. This broke cloud from his thoughts and he swiftly got up and looked down at her.
"Who…" She croaked out before wincing and trying to move, which only caused her even more pain. Her blue eyes began shining with unshed tears. She looked afraid and gave Cloud a quick scan.
"I'm Cloud, I saved you from the creature that attacked you" He whispered looking at her face, something wasn't quite right and he placed his hand softly to her forehead. She was burning up. 'A fever' he thought.
"Cloud… Thankyou…" She whispered hoarsely before falling back into unconsciousness. His brow frowned with worry, though he wasn't sure why, he didn't even know the girl. He left the room slowly but stopped at the door and turned back to look at her. 'Damn, I never got to ask her what her name is' he thought as he turned back and made his way down the stairs to retrieve a damp cloth for the fever stricken girl.
Ahhh what will happen to the girl, find out in the next chapter... maybe, I haven't written it yet as my muse has left me :(
Please Review :)
