Disclamier: i always wondered if i should do this or not...anywayz...yeah, I do own KH...seriously...no really I do!...NO I DON'T! If I OWNED it, I would be sued right now, for making such a crappy FanFiction.

" How dare you! I mean…I-I thought we had something going on! But NO, y-you just, don't care, about me…about us, no! All you care about is you! You! You! You! And on top of that, I see the way you flirt with Tifa! My best friend! I can't take it anymore! WERE THROUGH!" I heard someone yell below us.

Apparently, someone just got slapped, and dumped pretty loudly…hmmm…oh, OOOH…. you thought I slapped Seifer?

No, I couldn't…Im afraid of touching his acme filled face. Puberty doesn't like him at all. (Seriously)

I backed away from Seifer to look down and see what all the fuss was about.

Aerith…was crying…and she had just slapped Cloud. She was slowly backing away form Cloud as he tried to coax her back into his arms…arse-hole.

---------------------------------------------XX-----------------------------------------

Aerith may not be apart of my group but she is still a very good friend. And without her usual group (I forgot the names, but I know they went on some trip without her, I know Tifa was one of her friends)

No she didn't forget about me, it's just that, she is used to talking to her closer friends much more than meIm not hurt by that at all, but I still consider her my buddy.

I remember when we first met.

---XX---

I saw her bopping up and down beside me. She was nodding actually, to whatever the teacher was saying.

" Psssst!" she whispered, nearing my face. "Yeah?" I asked surprised. I never expected someone as popular as her to talk to me. She probably just wanted to deliver a message to my sister, through me.

"Whatcha drawin'?" she asked. I blinked several times, but I showed her my art. She scrutinized it for a few moments, and said something. "Wow, I wish I could draw this good. I can barely draw stick figures!" She said jokingly. I blushed just a little. She actually liked my art.

"Would you mind face painting at my party? I know it's all of a sudden but my parents cant find a good enough artist, and you seem perfect, plus, you get paid well!" She asked. I was taken back at first but then I realized this wasn't some cruel trick.

She was serious. I smiled, purely out of instinct. "Sure! I mean…I can do it for free- -" "No! Your talent must be paid for! It is so wonderful! I mean you have such good detail, besides, face-painting is still in style!" she laughed after that, so did I.

I could tell this was a start of a new companionship.

---XX---

I was right too! Ever since then, we've been close. I know it seems weird how fast our friendship developed but, after a few more "parties", and "shopping sprees" with her, I realized it didn't matter.

She was a friend who would let you cry on their shoulder, and help you get over your issue(s).

Yeah, I owe some affection, for all the things she did for me (especially for introducing me to my first boyfriend…which was not Riku).

------------------------------------XX-----------------------------------------------

I ran off towards the longest branch nearest me, and walked down it until I reached the tree itself.

"Hey! Im not finished yet! Get back here!" Seifer had yelled at me. Shoot, I completely forgot about him.

I turned towards him and smiled; his lips curved into an eerie smirk.

I gave him the "finger". Me? Still smiling here.

His face blanched. He didn't return the gesture. He just stared in awe.

"Thought so, Rittman!" I yelled before I slipped down another branch.

I came to a low enough branch, and sat there; contemplating how I was going to get down this huge tree…. IDEA!

I jumped off the branch I was previously sitting on, grabbed another branch ahead of me, and pretty much "monkey-bar"-ed my way to the ground (diagonally grown branches). When I reached the last branch I stopped, and crouched on it. Then, I jumped off (again) and landed with a "thud"; right in front of Aerith.

I never really knew that the tree had so many branches.

-----------------------------------XX--------------------------

"Cloud who could you? And Why? Why! What made you throw away everything we had?" She was still asking questions. Her hands were pulled away from her damp face.

I placed my on her shoulder, trying to get her away from Cloud's voice, and presence.

"Hey, you," I said, and turned my head towards Cloud. We gave each other the coldest glare. "You are the most stupidest, most annoying, most…emotion-less bastard, I have ever met." I plainly said in my best monotone-ed voice.

"WHAT THE HELL? WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?" screamed an outraged…Tifa. She was power walking towards us.

I looked at Aerith first. She seemed a little taken back. Seeing as how her best friend was right there, during the whole scene.

I, on the other hand, wasn't scared at all. I could outsmart the man-stealing whore.

0o-------(A/N: I do not hate Tifa, I just wanted to add a man-stealing girl, and the whole "Aerith -loves -Cloud-who-loves-her…-and-Tifa" situation seemed perfect.)---------O0

"Look, you, with the attitude!" I said sternly slowly turning towards her. Her frown, turned into a smirk.

"Attitude, huh? Well let's just see what this attitude can do to that pretty-little face of yours!" she began to crack her knuckles.

"Tifa! SHUT-UP!" Aerith said, tears streaming down her face.

The student body, that was around us –which were pretty big; expecting a fight--begun to hush, surprised at Aerith.

"Aerith, hon, you are the one who needs to shut-up. You are the one who lost her man—"her voice sounded more pissed.

" You stole her man, bitch!" I yelled at her."The one person the Aerith trusted most, stole her boyfriend…yeah, you're a bitch Tifa." I said more calmly.

She glared at me, eyes narrowed. She was about to say something when Cloud cut in.

"Look, this has gone on far enough. Tifa, let's just…go." Cloud suddenly spoke; stopping everyone from whispering.

Tifa looked at Cloud, then me, and then at a broken-hearted Aerith. Tifa smiled at that.

"Maybe, you should've backed off when I first told you I liked him, tsk, tsk, tsk, oh well, Cloud's alllll mine now." Pure venom dripping off every syllable she said; like that snake she was.

She held Cloud's hand as they slowly walked the opposite direction of us. I turned my head back to Aerith; tears streaming like crazy.

I honestly don't blame her…Cloud was an emotion-less arse-hole.

-------XX-------

I grabbed her hand and led her down the pathway, leading to the other part of campus. She didn't protest.

Once we were far enough. I stopped, and sat down on a nearby bench, and she sat with me, breaking down into sobs.

"I-I just d-don't get it! H-he seemed so perfect!" she suddenly spilled out her guts to me. "But I was so blind! He was seeing Tifa behind my back! How could he? How could she! I t-thought…" She stared at her hands for a bit, tears still streaking her face.

Dammit Cloud! I was really going to give a piece of my mind (I didn't get a chance to earlier), whether he was a grade higher or not. No one should feel this bad…no one.

I gave her a quick hug. Yes, it was awkward, since she was taller. She replied the act. I patted her back after we pulled away.

"Look, I know he hurt you," I knew better than to say his name. "But you know what?" She looked towards me; her green eyes were red rimmed.

Oh yeah, they were going to pay.

"Life is going to throw loads of crap at you, including cheating boyfriends, but you have to remember that your life isn't over. Soon, you will get over this, and laugh while thinking, 'That loser doesn't even know what he's missing!' But you can cry now, because you do need time to heal--"

My sentence was cut short when she placed a small "daisy" in my lap. I looked up at her, now, smiling face; I was a bit confused.

"Namine, I think that you caring is…nice. Even though we may not be best friends, but you still had the urge, or feeling, to help me out. Gosh, I must sound like you saved my life or something!" She chuckled and wiped away some tears.

I looked at the daisy…I smiled.

I never actually thought all that clearly when I was rushing towards Aerith earlier.

I knew that, in a way, I had saved her life. I had saved her from completely spilling out her guts, about how she loved Cloud…but he…would only say he didn't feel that way.

I was still confused at her sudden mood swing; but I decided not to ask.

I honestly think, that the mind plays horrible tricks on your mind. Tricks that make you think you're in love; and when it's all to late…you realize…you're not.
