Disclaimer: I own nothing but my new mummy and her kids.
Cloud walked through the large oak doors of the church and was instantly reminded Ariana, he missed her so much. He had just been in the most pain he had ever been in; he had heard another guy with Ariana and he knew he wasn't jumping to conclusions because only those who she deemed close enough to her heart were allowed to call her by the nickname her brother had made for her, Ana.
Soon ding dong the witch is dead sung out from his pocket and it was like his heart had broken all over again.
Ariana had been coming once a month for two weeks since she left and he caught her singing that in the shower and decided to record her on his phone so he would know when she was calling. Cloud just let it ring through he would check his messages later.
Cloud checked his voice messages on his way out; ok let's see what she has to say for herself he thought. "You have 1 new message" said the prompted voice.
"Hey Cloud, I know what you think you heard was another guy, well it was a guy, jut not the guy you think. It was my brother Zack; he came back from the Lifestream this morning and made me some of his scrambled eggs, Cloud I love you so much why would I cheat on you?" Cloud closed his phone and put it away her excuses where sickening to him, he would ring her later.
Ariana sat on her couch in tears with Zack next to her comforting her. "Don't worry about it Ana he'll come around, eventually" Zack said gently in her ear.
"But what if he never does, Zack? What am I gonna do?" she sobbed, her head in her hands. Just then her phone started to ring, it was Cloud.
"Hello" she said getting her hopes up.
"I don't think you've been drinking enough alcohol" said Cloud implying that she was completely mad
"Well haven't been drinking for 6 whole months and don't think I like it, because I don't. And I'm not going nuts I thought I was but I don't think you can punch a hallucination halfway across the street, trust me I thought he was a hallucination too." Ariana reasoned
"I don't think the dead came come back to life Ana."
"Well what about Kadaj, Yazoo and Loz, they managed to make it back didn't they, it's exactly the same."
"No it's not ok, you're crazy."
"No I'm not, would you like to talk to him then?"
"Forget it Ariana", with that Cloud hung up and Ariana's pregnant emotions started to kick in and she threw her phone across the room breaking it in pieces. Ariana vowed she would never speak to him again.
3 months later…
Ariana had kept her vow and was now giving birth to a set of twins. "I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL CLOUD" yelled Ariana so that the whole hospital could hear. She had given birth to a lovely boy and girl, she named the girl Kiyoko Fair and the boy Yukito Fair. Kiyoko had her mother's hair and her father's eyes where as Yukito had his father's hair and his fathers eyes, Ariana was disappointed that neither of them had her eyes but there wasn't much she could do about that now was there.
"Congratulations, you must be a very proud father" said a nurse guiding Zack into the room Ariana was in.
"Oh no, I'm her brother" corrected Zack
"My apologies sir" she said walking off. Zack knew she was wondering where the father was. Once Ariana had fallen asleep that night Zack decided to pay Cloud a visit, it would take a couple of days to get to Midgar but he thought that he could make it in a day if he didn't stop, he took Ariana's bike and sped off towards Midgar.
It was 10 the next night by the time he reached Midgar; he parked the bike out the front of the bar and walked in. the bar was completely silent when Zack walked in, everyone still believed him to be dead. "Where's Cloud?" Zack asked, he was a man on a mission.
"Cloud's at the church" Tifa was the only one who wasn't in shock and was able to speak. Zack just turned right around and road straight to the church, he stormed into the church causing Cloud to look around and be in complete and utter shock.
"Believe Ariana now?' all Cloud could do was just sit there on a fallen pillar with his mouth open, Zack just cracked up laughing hysterically "you he look like a stunned mullet" Zack managed to say between laughs. When Zack had managed to stop rolling on the floor and regain his composure he said seriously, "you need to come with me."
"Where are we going" yelled Cloud yelled over the roar of his own motorbike.
"A little place I like to call the hospital, Ariana's there at the moment" Zack yelled behind him, this only made Cloud speed up so he was going at top speed towards Gongaga. It had only taken them until sunrise to get to the hospital due to the dangerous speed they were traveling at. Cloud and Zack parked their motorbikes at the entrance and Cloud ran in towards the emergency ward, Zack rushed in after him and steered him in the other direction.
"I thought you said…" started Cloud.
"I said she was in the hospital I didn't say she had an accident just follow me" said Zack following the signs to the maternity ward.
"Zack, why are we going to the maternity ward?" Cloud asked scared
"You're about to see why." They entered Ariana's room; she was sound asleep in her bed with Kyoko and Yukito in their bassinettes next to her bed.
"Oh my god, how come she didn't tell me? They are mine right?" whispered Cloud.
"Yeah they're yours" confirmed Zack
Just then Kiyoko opened her eyes and looked straight at Cloud with a smile. Cloud walked up to her and held her hand "she's beautiful. Kiyoko? It suits her well. Hello Kiyoko, I'm your daddy" Cloud said in a rather fatherly way Kiyoko just cackled.
"She seems to like you, I think she's gonna be a daddy's girl" smiled Ariana who had woken up moments before, cloud walked up to her and gave her a big kiss. "So you don't hate me then?" she asked looking in his eyes.
"Why would I?" Cloud asked confused.
"You know, I don't know" she said thinking why on earth would someone who loves her to death be angry at her for getting pregnant, maybe if it was with another man which it wasn't.
"So this is why you didn't come back?" Cloud asked, Ariana nodded "well that's gotta be the cutest reason ever, I mean look at them they're gorgeous"
"Oh yeah and the real reason I didn't talk to you guys for ages was because I was too fat to fit up the stairs" this caused Cloud to laugh "and do you know that I was going completely insane from lack of alcohol in my system and thought Zack was a demon from the absinthe, you know that bottle of absinthe you bought me before I left, I had it sitting on my coffee table and it was mocking me, mocking me for heavens sake!", Ariana continued to tell Cloud about her insanity, while Zack slipped out and made a phone call to 7th heaven.
A/N: hope you liked. I think I'm just dragging this on in my own self denial lol oh well. review
