Serah woke up from her sleep rubbing her eyes and was looking at the window

Another day at midgar I wonder what I am going to do today?.

Serah got out of bed stretching her legs and arms after finish her stretches she went to have a quick shower ten minutes later she got out of the shower looked at her clothes she could not decide what to wear in the end, she decided to wear a chocobo t-shirt with some skinny jeans, her pink boots after she was done Serah check her hair in the mirror and made sure she had the taser that Cloud had bought for her in her bag .

Serah made sure she had her bag strap to her leg and had her money, keys, mobile phone and the taser before exiting her room and locking the door behind her. She made her way to the bus stop in a quick fashion, she waited twenty minutes before the bus came which took her straight to seven heaven after arriving Serah ran to the bar eager to eat Tifa breakfast.

"Hey Tifa are you here" Serah said eagerly

"Hi Serah I am you want the usually right" Tifa said smiling

"Yes please"

"Okay take a seat the food will be ready in five minutes"

"Okay" Serah handed Tifa the money and sat on the stool waiting for her breakfast to come.

Serah was bored so she decided to play candy crush on her phone to past the time by in the middle of a game she got a text

It's from Claire.

Serah opened the text from her sister which said

"Serah I glad you are fine and not hurt You have some nice friends over there I hope your new prince charming makes you happy unlike snow make sure you take him before someone else does, I hope to see you soon love Claire".

God what did I tell her about Cloud she just likes to teased me.

Serah sent her a reply back

"Claire I am fine and he is not my prince charming just a friend he can give you a run for your money on being cold and distance from his friends and family, I hope to see you soon love Serah".

Serah put her phone away after sending replying back to Claire. Tifa had arrived with her breakfast Serah ate everything in under five minutes there was not a speck of food on the plate.

"Wow Tifa your cooking is amazing"

"Thank you Serah its nice being praised for my cooking"

"Why doesn't mister grumpy ever praised you cooking at all"?

"No all he does is eat the food and give me the plate back without saying anything".

Wow he really can give Claire a run for her money at being grouchy.

"Tifa were is mister grouchy?"

"He just doing the delivery he should be back soon he like to doing the deliveries alone".

"Yeah he a really ball of shine isn't he Tifa so when is it your wedding with him?" Serah asked smiling

"Wwwhaat are you talking about Serah?" Tifa said in a squeaky voice.

"Tifa your blushing like a tomato" Serah said laughing.

Tifa had a serious look on her face which Serah saw

"Tifa I am only joking didn't mean to upset you"

"I am fine Serah that was pretty funny though can you image Cloud proposing to me in with his grouchy face.

Serah image Cloud proposing to Tifa with flowers with his grouchy face as well and they couldn't stop laughing Serah fell of her chair and continue laughing with Tifa after a couple of minutes they both stop laughing and wipe there tears off their faces. Serah got off the floor and back on her chair and wanted to know more about Cloud.

"Tifa why is cloud the way he is surely he wasn't always like this".

"Your right a lot has happen to him since he was young he lost people the he couldn't protect no matter what he did" Tifa said in a sad tone.

"Oh am sorry I shouldn't have asked you that it must be a pain memory"

"Its fine Serah if you want to know Cloud might tell you someday".

Serah looked at her water staring at her reflection wondering what happen to cloud why he is always cold and pushing people away that try to get close to him.

Tifa and Serah heard an engine die outside, there was a click and the sound of metal against metal and the sound of heavy footprints approaching the bar. The door opened and Cloud step through looking at paperwork while walking upstairs.

"Cloud how was the deliverers today".

"They were fine Tifa I need to sort out the paperwork's for the deliverers for Monday and also need to sort out the payments for the bills as well".

Cloud was too busy looking at the paperwork and had bump in the wall.

"Cloud you should watch where you are going" Tifa said laughing.

Serah couldn't help but laugh as well, Cloud look at both women before headed upstairs he looked at Serah when talking to Tifa

"Tifa make sure I am not disturbed I need peace and quiet and need to sort all this out" waving the paperwork in the air.

"Make sure to take breaks in between your work or you will get tired" Serah said

Cloud gave Serah a nod and went upstairs to his study shutting the door behind him.

"Wow Cloud didn't even say hello to me" Serah said shaking her head.

"He is like that with mostly anyone he doesn't really say much to me" Tifa said.

"Hey Tifa why don't we pull a prank on mister grouchy it be fun."

"I am interested it would be fun to prank Cloud maybe he will actually have some fun".

Serah leaned next to Tifa ear whispering all of the plan and after she told Tifa her eyes were beaming.

"Serah that's brilliant"

"I know now make sure you remember what you need to do".

"Don't worry I won't"

"Okay let begin stage 1"

Serah went upstairs approaching Cloud study and knocking at the door.

"Come in" said Cloud.

Serah came in and was shock to see cloud study was surprised to see he had video games and figures as well.

Oh my god he plays video games and likes to collect figures as well.

Serah also saw there were library full of books which had books from shakesphere, Sherlock Holmes and many other types of book on language, history and quite a lot of comic books as well. Serah went to the books and saw a lot of Batman Comic.

He likes comic too what kind of alternate dimension did I go to?.

Cloud was tapping his finger on the desk impatiently, Serah went up to Cloud who invited Serah to sit down which Serah did without question. Cloud put down his pen and was looking at Serah

"Why are you upstairs Serah I distinctly told Tifa that I was not to be disturbed".

"Cloud I need a favour from you"

Cloud raised an eyebrow but did not say anything when Serah was talking.

"I need to do some shopping I need food and some other things as well and you know I don't know my way around here and you are my tour guide.

"Ask Tifa I am busy with all this I need to finish sorting out the bills and delivery dates".

"I am pretty good at sorting out paperwork how about this you help with the shopping and I will help you with the work."

Cloud was thinking it was silly asking a stranger for help with the paperwork but he would be spending all day sorting out everything by himself and Serah could double check the calculations to be sure.

"Okay I will help you with the shopping Serah meet me at the front I will be out in a couple of minutes".

"Thank Cloud I really appreciate this".

Serah made her way downstairs give Tifa the thumbs up stage 1 complete . Serah exited the bar and was waiting near Clouds bike ten minutes later Cloud came out with his face in a shocked state.

"Cloud are you okay" Serah asked

"I am fine let's get this over with"

Cloud put his face straight went on his bike opening the compartments place his swords and closing the compartment, Serah climbed on the bike and was holding on to Cloud waist to make sure not to fall off. Cloud started the bike and accelerated down the road towards the shopping centre.
