A/N:

Hey guys! This is Dynasty once again~ I thank you guys for the reviews. And regarding Kikko's comment. I'm not mad, I just want to say my thoughts about your comment. Here it is;
1. Thank you for the review.
2. I did kind of realize that in the story Light is a bit.. Or quite OOC. Pardon us with that.
3. Yes and No, its not entirely Stella's fault because she did slip not on purpose. And, why would she want them to break-up exactly? Stella has Prompto, does she not?

I hope you don't take that as like I'm getting mad, I'm simply clarifying and understanding.

Anyways, to warn you guys, for this story; Light will be quite OOC. We are TRYING to maintain her real personality. But pardon us if we failed to do so.

We just hope you still like the story even if that's the situation.

Anyways... Without further ado... Enjoy chapter 7! :)

Previously on Clarity...

Lightning laughed it off. "Hah, Why would I believe in that silly lie. What you're telling is the lie. I've got no more time here. You're just wasting my time."

"But Light…."

But the older Farron snobs her. Serah tried to call her but Stella prevented her from doing it further.

"Serah, Stop it. Let's just let Lightning feel that she's falling for a lie." Stella said.

"It's too late now, Serah." Yuna added.

Serah was silenced and uttered in astonishment. "Let's just go. She doesn't believe in Noctis or what I even say anyway." She had no choice but to let her sister face the hard way and learn about everything.

She left the campus with Yuna and Stella as the clock strikes 4:00pm. They took a ride and headed for Noctis' house where Noctis had just arrived from leaving the campus early and alone.

In his room, Noctis silently took a seat and began to stare at a map. Next to Bodhum was the Region of Accordo. Noctis unpinned the map and looked at it closely. He remembered that one of his friends is living in Accordo.

Noctis took his calendar and the journal near the picture of him and Lightning. In the frame, the picture showed Lightning perched on her lover's back, Her arms circled around his shoulders, Her lover's arms was under her knees, The two shared a kiss when it was taken. He could only remember the good days back. He opens his journal and on the first page, There lies the page where Lightning pasted a picture of Her and Noctis before the days leading to the incident. The picture showed Noctis placing his arms around her as their cheeks meet and their smiles displayed.

On the bottom right corner of the picture, Lightning left a message which writes. "Noctis, I love you no matter what, even if we go through a lot of problems. Still, We can do it together and our love. Everything between us is forever. Love, Lightning."

Noctis sheds a tear but didn't utter a sound. He rested his head on his palm and thought.

"Why should I go to Accordo? Is it because of Lightning and Caius or Is it just my plan to get away and forget about Lightning?

Noctis paused for a short while before he continued his thoughts.

"*sighs" I think it would be better if the whole university didn't know of my plans to leave and especially Lightning. I hope wherever she is now, She must be happy being with someone else than me." Noctis thought in his belief. He felt something that was telling him to just go over it and forget about Lightning.

At this, Noctis decided to leave for Accordo and began not to remember Lightning or the memories they had.

The pictures in the frame and in the journal remained untouched.

The next day, a Friday, Noctis decided not to attend his classes this marking his first absence.

After a few classes, it was now lunch break. The gang met-up at the usual table. But then they noticed that Noctis wasn't present.

"Hey did you guys see Noctis anywhere?", Rinoa asked the rest of the gang.

She was answered by replies and gestures that mean the same thing; No.

"Where could he be?", Yuffie said curiously, placing her index finger under her chin, looking up at the ceiling in a thinking stance.

After awhile, Prompto snapped his fingers, the spoke; "Why not let's try calling him then?"

Mostly everyone face palmed for not using their common sense.

After a moment of awkward silence, Ignis cleared his throat. Taking the hint, Squall tried calling Noct.

'The number you have dialed is currently unavailable please call again later...', the answering machine spoke.

"He isn't answering...", Squall said.

"Maybe he's sick.", Rikku said.

The rest agreed to Rikku's answer and hopped that their friend would get well soon.

The next day

Noctis decided to call his friend, Cor Leonis, whom lives in a country near Bodhum named Accordo.

"Cor? Hey, it's me Noct", Noctis says on the telephone.

"Hmm?... Oh Noct! Long time no talk. I nearly forgot who you were. But anyways, why did you call? Do you need anything?", asked Cor in the other side if the line.

"I was going to ask if you have any space in the place where you live right now. You see, I'm planning to move out of Bodhum going to Accordo anytime within this month."

"Yeah I do... but why would you want to leave Bodum? Its been years since you stayed there. All your friends, asides from me, are all there. And if I'm not mistaken, Prompto informed me a few months ago like 3 months ago you had a lover. Are you just gonna leave her? Don't you love her enough not to leave her?"

"Yeah... I will miss all of them especially her... but she's the reason why I need to do this..."

"Why? Did anything happen?"

Noctis then explained to Cor about his and his lover's argument that led to them separating.

"Ouch... that would have hurt a lot."

"It did..."

"Don't worry, Noct. Your always welcomed here. Just give me a call when you get here or before you leave, you tell me when your approximate time if arrival will be so that I could fetch ya."

"Thanks Cor. Your a life saver."

"No problem Nocty-boy."

"Bye."

"See ya."

With that, their conversation ended.

After a few minutes of resting, Noctis began to prepare for his trip to Accordo... alone.

A few weeks after Noct called Cor, he still did not attend his classes.

Caius, along with Lightning and his other lackeys were glad that he didn't attend school.

Dismissal time, same day

"Hey guys, why not let's celebrate Caelum's sudden long-term disappearance?", Seifer suggested.

Jihl placed a hand on her hip, then spoke; "That's a great idea. Where then?"

"Hmmmm... How about a party at my house?", says Seymour.

"Yeah!", they all said simultaneously.

After they agreed, they all headed for Seymour's house, then began to party.

Saturday

Serah, worried sick about Noctis, decided to visit him

After the younger Farron did her assignments, she went to her closet to get comfortable clothes to wear and headed out.

But before going out of the house, she checked her sister room. She took a small peek at the door and saw that her sister was busy playing music with her phone. She silently closed it then headed outside.

After thirteen minutes of walking, she finally arrived at Noct's house.

She approached the door, and knocked three times.

"Who is it?", a voice said from inside the home.

"Hey Noct? Its me Serah."

"Oh. Hold on a sec."

Noctis opened the door and allowed Serah to get inside.

"What brings you here today, Ser?", asked Noctis as he went out of the kitchen holding two cups of hot chocolate, giving one to Serah and the other one in front of him on the table before sitting on the couch.

Serah accepted the hot coco and sat on the opposite couch in front of where Noctis is sitting before replying.

"You were absent for about 2-3 weeks now. Me and the rest of the gang have been trying to contact you ever since. Neither Prompto, Gladiolus and Ignis doesn't know what happened to you. We were really worried.", Serah explained with a tone full of concern.

Noctis had a small smile on his face before replying; " Don't worry too much. I have a reason for not attending classes lately. But I won't tell you right now. Just tell the others and Professor Katzroy that I have high fever and I can't do any outdoor activities at the moment."

"Okay if that's what you want."

"Thanks Ser."

With that, Serah finished her hot coco, bid farewell to her best friend and left.

Monday

Serah and Lightning was walking separately to the university. Serah was with her fiancé, Snow Villers. While Lightning was with Caius and his gang. They would usually take opposite routes going to the university.

When Serah along with Snow got in the university, she immediately tried searching for Sir Katzroy.

After a few minutes, she found him.

"Sir! Sir Katzroy!", Serah shouted, panting. Luckily, she caught his attention.

"Hm?.. Ah!.. Serah! Is there anything I could be of help?", Sazh said with a grin on his face.

"I just wanted to inform yoy that, I visited Noctis last Saturday at his home. He has a really high fever and cannot do any outdoor activities so he has to rest at home."

"Is that so... Okay then. Thank you for the concern for your friend and my student. You may go to your class now."

"Okay 'sir! Bye!", Serah waved at Sazh, who waved back.
