Disclaimers: I hadn't had these yet, I don't think so here it goes! Don't read if you don't like homosexual content. I don't own anything, just a chain of thoughts of what COULD've happened. Again, don't like, don't read.

Cloud: What do you mean don't like. READ READ READ!

Reno: Shh, let him finish.

Me: I'm done.

Reno: Oh.

Chapter 5: Dream

We walk together to the bar for a drink. Aeris says that she's thirsty after all that food, no kidding!

"Did you hear the dressmaker…? I'm supposed to have some perfume." I whisper, not being too loud, "do you have some with you right now?"

"Yes Cloud. I bring a whole bottle of perfume wherever I go." Aeris mocks.

"Shut up."

"The lady over there seems to having some problems, want to go check her out?" Aeris says in concern. I give her a shrug, what I really want is to get that perfume. But Aeris ignores me and she goes to the lady "over there". Gah.

"Help me… Help me…" The lady with a few extra pounds begins, "I just came out of the washroom… my stomach…"

"What did you eat?" Aeris asks her.

"Just… some bread and pasta and this-and-that, whatnot." The lady says in pain.

"Maybe it's all the food you ate…"

"You ate a lot of food too, I don't see you crying for mommy," I laugh at Aeris. The lady gives me a weird look, like she didn't understand something.

"Oh be quiet! This is important. Hey… we got that coupon for the pharmacy right? Maybe we can help this lady out. I'm sure it's something we could do. Maybe we can ask her where we could get perfume after ok? Oh and remember, you're a girl, not a guy. So stop talking, sheesh. I don't know whether you noticed it, she thought you were a demon by that look of hers."

Even with my excessive horrid complaining about ditching this lady, Aeris would not. And the next thing we know, we are marching off for the pharmacy. She runs well-ahead of me, and I stay behind, wandering the streets. I walk into the alley, where a huge wall of graffiti is. I wonder… what it's like to leave this place, pass this wall. It must be beautiful…

"Reno… I had a dream about you last night."

"What was it, Chocobo? Was it sex?"

"Hmmm… maybe, and stop calling me that. I'm not a choc--"

"Hush," Reno kissed me on the lips, feverously.

He planted the many soft kisses down my neck and then my chest. I threw my head back, calling his name, Reno… Reno… Oh Reno… "Shut up, what did I tell you," he told me, stripped me of my clothes and then his own. The room was filled with a soft scent of strawberry, the "flavor" of the shampoo he uses. He called it flavor because it wasn't just the scent. If you tasted his hair, you'd know; I had done it many times. Aside from his flaming red hair, there's nothing noticeably visible in the room, he had turned off all the lights. I could get used to this.

He had already lifted up my legs and was asking my permission. "Do you really need to ask?" All he gave me was a smile, a really sexy one. To be honest, the dream I had was nothing like this… It was filled with horror… Zack and me. I made a noise, "Nrggh." Oh, that felt good. His rhythm hastened as I groaned louder. "Hey, are you sure it's okay to do it here… I mean next door is where your boss is." He reassured me with, "do you really think he has no clue?" I smiled and realized how fast he was going. It was a little painful. "Mmmm, I'm coming Cloud!" He gave a scream of joy and he emptied himself inside me. He collapsed on top of me and that was that. And that to me was beautiful.

Aeris appears suddenly and breaks my chain of thoughts. "Hey! I gave her the medicine for her stomach and guess what! When I asked her whether she knew or not where to get perfume, she gave me this." Aeris sprays some of the cologne on me. Hmmm… I wonder if it's the same brand Reno uses… It awfully smells similar. "This cologne gives me a headache. I don't think you should use it now." Aeris complains.

We look for somewhere for her to sit down and we find a bench somewhere not far from where we were. "You okay?" I ask her. She gently nods and takes my shoulder as her pillow. I could not help, but feel a little… warm. "Hey Aeris, you wanna go take a nap somewhere? I bet we could find a place, let's go there, the owner might know," I point to some distant store. She resists but gives in after awhile. We walk in a store full of materia, and I ask him whether the store owner has some place for us to stay.

"Well, there's an Inn somewhere within this… place," he says, "actually, could you go there anyway for me? I need you to buy something for me from the vending machine in the Inn." We're talking about favors now, eh? "I'll give you something in return."

"Okay, what is it that you need?" I ask him.

"That's the thing. I don't know what it is. There are rumors about what you can buy from that vending machine. I don't want to be seen doing it, could you please do me that favor?" Talk about desperate.

"Alright sure, so I'll just go buy it and come back?" Aeris already dozing off.

"No, you have to sleep there to get access. You wanted to rest, no?"

"Yeah, thanks, I'll be back then." And we leave for the Inn. "Aeris, you feeling alright?" She reassures me with a "mmhmm". "Are you sure? I'm practically carrying you there."

"Oh sorry!" She suddenly jumps out of my arms. Her face blushes a crimson shade of red and continues walking ahead, well-ahead.

We finally arrive at the Inn and we ask for a night. 10 Gil upfront, hmm. "Sure, we could use the rest." We pay and we went to a room with two beds. Aeris falls asleep almost instantly, and I begin to wonder. I guess this is the time. I jump out of bed and left the room. I wander around the dark hallway, no windows, no light. "This could be a little tricky," I say to myself.

I slowly travel within the dark hallway and I run into a table counter, which on top, exists a lamp with no switch. "Why the heck do they put this here," I rub my hips where I hit the table. Charging up some magic, I cast bolt on the lamp and lo and behold! It turns on. Just a meter away from the lamp was the vending machine. I approach it and there are three items. "Which one did he want?" I think. "Well… he wasn't sure either, I'd just get the cheapest one," which was for 50 Gil. Great, sold out. Gah. I press the 100 Gil button and nothing came out. What the hell? Damn it, gimme my Gil back, I smash the vending machine. I hear a clunk at the bottom of the machine. I reach in the opening and find a parcel. On it, is a label labeling 200 gil. Well, that was easy.

Without a warning, the bulb suddenly bursts, and where there was light is now no more. I hold the parcel close to my body and with difficulty, go back to my room, where I hear noises.

"Don't leave, Zack!" I hear from inside the room. Full of disbelief, I open the door and look in. There is no body, except Aeris with her eyes closed. "Does she know Zack?" I say to myself. What do you mean by "don't leave"? I go onto my bed thinking that I'll ask her tomorrow, and my eyes slowly begin to close.

"Zack! Zack! Tell me you're not dead!" I said the first thing as I woke up from being unconscious. "Zack!" I cried. I was holding the sword that Zack used to use. Why was I holding it? What's going on! It was too late. Zack's eyes were closed. Eyes on a face full of expression, of sorrow and grief. "Zack… who did this to you? Tell me! Tell me!" I said with anger.

No longer able to take the shock and pain, I fall on him, and there I fall asleep.
