Hello everyone

Hello everyone.

This is my first fanfic so go easy on me.

Disclaimer: Well this fanfic is based on the anime Gravitation, as you'll notice. You can say that this is gravitation kh version lols. There are some dialogues which have been taken from the anime, but many things will probably be changed in the future chapters. FF characters that are not in kh will also make an appearance, some have already such as Vaan, Kadaj, Yazoo, Loz, Reno. Of course I don't own anything!

Also a BIG THANKS to my beta, to the ones who read and/or faved, reviewed it. This being my first story, I'm very happy and grateful.

Pairings: CloudxSquall(Leon), RikuxSora and others later.

GRAVITATION

NEWS AND HIDDEN EMOTIONS

Cloud Strife returned to the living room, now wearing a simple t-shirt and blue jeans, and looked at the beautiful 'brat.' This boy was strange and annoying… no matter how handsome he was. He wanted to get rid of the child as soon as possible. He didn't have time to deal with him. Yet… he was the one who had brought him to his home, of all places. He didn't know why he did that… Anyway, the stupidity had been done; he just had to deal with it now.

He lit up a cigarette and stared at the nearby wall. "Why did you do this, huh? Wanted to commit suicide that much?"

"What!?" Squall stood up from the couch looking furiously at the blond. "Of course not! I just wanted to beat your sorry ass for your rudeness!"

"My rudeness?" Cloud turned and looked at the brunet who froze but continued glaring at him. "You ran in front of my car; what did you want me to tell you!? 'Well done that I was almost killed!?'"

"I don't mean that you asshole! I mean your words at the park!" The blond looked at him curiously. 'What the?' Squall thought 'Don't tell me he doesn't remember!'

"The park? What park, you idiotic brat? This was the first time I've seen you."

"What!? First of all, stop calling me a brat! My name's Squall! Want me to spell it for you!? You talked too bad to me that time in the park! It was only a few days ago! Don't tell me you don't remember!"

"I don't. And what? When someone talks bad to you, you go and commit suicide by running in front of cars?"

"It wasn't—" Cloud chuckled. Squall's eyes widened. He couldn't believe it! The stupid blond was laughing! Laughing at him! He usually didn't give a damn about what others might think or say. He didn't care. Something about this man gave him the creeps, but most of all he was getting on his nerves!

Squall ran at the blond and pushed him into the wall, his right hand raised ready to give him a punch. He expected the other to shout at him, hit him or maybe only glare at him but the blond just… smiled? The blond acted as if he was expecting that kind of reaction. He just put the cigarette back in his mouth and continued smoking. The only difference was that he was now smiling.

Squall didn't know what 'hit' him. The one moment he had the older man pushed against the wall and the next he was found with his back on the floor with both his hands held above his head. The blond was holding them there with only his left hand and with his cigarette still on his right hand.

"You think you can beat me? A little brat like you…" Cloud moved closer to the brunet, so close that their lips were almost touching.

Squall was looking helplessly at him. The next words were the coldest and most harsh he had ever heard.

"One with zero talent doesn't even deserve to be in here."


"No."

"But—"

"Axel!"

The redhead was shocked by Vaan's reaction. The president was usually calmer. Damn that brown haired brat! He was definitely going to hit him for not having completed the song already! It was like he didn't want Axel to help him shine! And that kid had potential!

"I'll sign ASK," Vaan said and finished with a smile. "I'm sorry."

"AXEL!" The two of them turned to look at the door which was burst opened.

"R-Riku!" The sexy silver haired boy was at the door, panting and apologizing to Vaan Tomashi at the same time.

"T-Take a breath! Riku are you ok?"

"I'm… fine!" Riku was acting like he had come running from the next town. Axel was wondering if the boy would faint.

"Mr. Hiroshi." Riku looked up at Vaan to see him looking at him with a rather strict look. This look was replaced with a warm smile however and the following kind words "Please, take a breath."

"N-No… I have to go… We have to rehearse… But..." Riku put out a paper and extended his hand. Axel's face lit up. "The lyrics are here."

Vaan stood up and congratulated them.

"That was close, Sanak-san."

Both Riku and Axel smiled in triumph.


The rehearsal was not good. Riku could tell that something was bothering his friend. Axel was pretty pleased though. He seemed to realize how stressed Squall was and he was happy that he had performed so well. He could do much better, but it was good for now.

They were sitting now, taking a break while Axel was switching channels on TV. Nothing interesting for now.

"What's up?" Riku asked Squall.

The brunet didn't answer. He was going to kill that asshole. After those rude words of him, he had just pushed him off him and ran out of the house. Not to mention, he had lied about not remembering their encounter at the park.

"That sexy asshole." Wait a sec, did he just say sexy? Out loud?

"So that's our problem. Oh God, I can't believe you. You're thinking of him again. Maybe this means something…"

Squall glared at his friend. He hadn't told Riku about the events that occurred the previous night. Well, he had to fill him and Axel in then, didn't he?

15 minutes later

"What!? The guy really is an asshole!"

"See? I told you so."

"He was really cold, that's true," Axel added.

"Whatever." Squall rolled his eyes. He had to stop thinking about that asshole.

"So what's his name?" Riku asked

"I don't want to ta— I don't know."

"What!?" Riku and Axel were both stunned. So many things had happened yesterday and Squall hadn't thought of asking the mysterious blond his name?

"Well, does he know your name? No, right?"

Squall looked at Axel. Oh shit. "...He does."

The looks he received were that of 'you really are insane.'

"Oh, fuck you both." Squall thought about leaving when he saw the asshole on... TV? The sexy blond man was being interviewed by none other than Tifa Lockhart herself, the third best reporter in the world. That woman was a genius. Who was he? "Ah… Th-That man!"

"Hmm?" Axel looked at the TV. "Oh, that's Cloud Strife."

"Who?"

Again those looks.

"I'm not crazy. I don't know him."

"You're kidding right?" Riku asked. At the glare both he and Axel received, Riku sighed and explained, "He's the number one novelist in the world! He writes mostly love novels, yaoi and straight stuff. Although he's quite a ladies' and youths' man, he is said to be rather cold."

"He's quite the mysterious young man. No one knows many things about his past. Most don't know anything, and that includes Tifa Lockhart. Only his family know, and…Vaan Tomashi"

"Vaan Tomashi? I didn't know that," Riku said, amused.

"Yeah… I kind of heard… It's said that he's also in love with our blond."

"You're kidding; Vaan Tomashi is in love with him?"

"Him and most people. He's handsome, you've got to admit."

"He's also sarcastic and doesn't give attention to anyone easily. His smile is rare, like yours Squall. You seem a bit like each other if you ask me." Riku turned to his friend to find him frozen in place, as if someone had stopped his blood from running through his body. "Squall!"

"Squall-kun!"

"Hey pal, what's up?"

"Are you not feeling well, Squall-kun?"

Riku took his glass of cold water. "Riku what are you do—" Axel gasped when Riku threw the water to Squall. The silver haired boy was so going to die. To their surprise Squall didn't look furious, nor did he glare at them. He snapped out of it though.

The brunet looked around and then at the two men like a lost puppy. "Ask me the last question you asked me again?"

Riku looked puzzled. "Ahh…you're kidding, right?"

"Not that one."

"What? What was that asshole's name?"

Axel's beautiful green eyes widened. Squall couldn't mean…

"Cloud Strife."


Squall was walking without really knowing where he was going. He just went where his feet were taking him. Riku had offered to give him a ride with his bike and Axel had offered to walk him home, but he had refused. After a lot of coaxing from Mr. Sanak, who knew that Squall needed some time alone, Riku had 'let' him go for a walk after he had made the brunet promise him to call him when he got home.

The brunet stopped walking and looked around. He didn't know where he was. Great. His eyes fell onto a building rather familiar. Squall stopped breathing for a moment and ran to the building. He took a big breath and looked at the names of the inhabitants listed.

Squall's heart stopped. There it was.

'Cloud Strife.'

He gritted his teeth and punched the wall nearby. He couldn't believe that he had come here by instinct. This was completely ridiculous. What the heck!? What the hell was wrong with him!?

"What are you doing here?" Squall turned to see an angry blond and ocean blue eyes staring at him. "Brat."

"You asshole! Stop it already!"

"You're the one who came here."

"How do you know I came here for you?"

Cloud lifted an eyebrow.

"Listen…" Squall said "Cloud Strife, I didn't know who you were as unbelievable as this might sound to you. I have a concert. On the 17th, at Zepp Tokyo, so come and hear me singing. If you continue saying such rude things, well, it's your opinion and you have every right to, but after the damned concert!"

Cloud just looked at him. Squall was starting to get pissed. He didn't like the way the other looked at him. It was like he wanted to…The brunet shook his head and opened his mouth to talk again when the door of the building opened and a very beautiful blond woman came out.

"Cloud, wait! Just hear me for a second, please—" The blonde paused and looked at Squall. She had blue eyes and wore a green skirt and a green top. Her hair reached a little under her shoulders and she had a strict look on her face; it was like she was scanning him.

"Who is he?" she asked the blond man.

"Well, let's go Squall." Cloud winked at him and the brunet thought he was going to have a heart attack. What the…?

"He's my date."

"WHAT!?" both Squall and the blond woman exclaimed.

"Oh, come on, don't be shy. He's a little shy for going out with the Cloud Strife.

Squall felt like killing the blond. He didn't give a fuck about going out with the so wonderful, as they called him, Cloud Strife. He couldn't care less. He was sure he was going to be slaughtered by billons of men and women for this, but he didn't want Cloud Strife. He could do whatever he wanted—as long as that didn't insult him, of course—for all he cared.

The blond went and hugged the brunet as he received a questioning look from Quistis. The blonde knew him very well and she knew he didn't care for anyone enough to be that sweet to them. Because for Cloud to smile and hug his boyfriend or girlfriend in front of others in such a way was… Well, it had never ever happened again.

Cloud didn't know why he felt somewhat comfortable with the boy, or why he often thought about him since their encounter at the park. Either way, he had to get rid of Quistis for the time being. He just hugged Squall tighter, and feeling the brunet's uneasiness he whispered to him, "Don't you dare say anything brat."

Squall managed to force a small smile for the blond woman while his heart and mind were both screaming at him to leave. Quistis looked at the pair once more and a sad look took the place of her thoughtful one.

"Idiot," she muttered to Cloud and left.

Squall just looked at the woman wondering what the hell was going on, while noticing two very important things:

First, Cloud hadn't released him, even when the woman was now completely out of view.

And second, the blond had remembered his name. Why would he remember it when the previous night he had acted as if he hadn't even heard it?

Cloud himself knew one thing; he didn't want to let go of the brat yet, for some reason.
