I know at this point you probably have at least one question...or at least you should: what does Sakoura look like? Well your going to find out in this chapter. P.S. this will mostly take place through Leon's P.O.V. Also this chapter contains some sexual teasing, nothing more though.

Simple and Clean

Chpt 3: Should I tell her?

Leon's P.O.V.~

I looked at Cloud, still a bit shocked at what I had just witnessed.

"Don't ask. She never really got over how she was separated from them. She watched them, one by one, get pulled into the deepest darkest abyss. She had talk to Cissnei the day before. She hadn't thought about what happened to her until after you guys found her. But that's not what gets to her the most.." said Cloud. He looked down.

"What bugs her is the fact is that she hasn't really been able to look for them. That's what's bugging her. And the fact that her birthday was the day before the heartless took over doesn't help."

"That really does suck. I'd hate that!" Yuffie yelled.

"Big whoop." I glared at Riku for that.

"So she got separated from her friends. It's not our fault that she can't go looking for them. We can't help her with that problem. She can't hold us responsible."

I coughed. "Actually she can. You guys where suppose to go save all the worlds. Every last one of them. And you guys missed quite a few. Midgar, Kalm, Edge,-" Cloud went on.

"And my home world as well." Everyone turned to look at me.

"What do you mean by your home world too?! You said-"

"I really don't want to talk about it." I stood up and walked upstairs. My feet stopped in front of a door. 'Eh, what the hell? Why are my feet not cooperating?' I looked up. 'My room's all the way over there.' I looked at my left. 'And I stop in front of her room why? Maybe I should go check on her. But then I'll feel like I'm intruding. Wait...why am I having an internal debate over this? Maybe Yuffie was right...maybe I do need to lay off the Monsters and Rockstars before I start training.' I knocked on her door. Nothing. I knocked again, just a little harder. Still nothing.

Flashback

"Leon. When I'm not around, I need you to keep a close eye on my sis. She's been having...a few suicidal thoughts lately."

I nodded. I wanted to ask why but I'll get an answer...eventually.

End flashback

I opened the door and was about to yell her name, but covered my mouth quickly. I released a breathe I had been holding unintentionally. I walked over to her bed side and noticed a picture next to her sleeping from. I picked it up and sat down, being careful not to wake her up. I've seen what she can do if she's in a crappy mood. I flipped the picture over and looked at it. 'Cissnei, Genesis, Angeal, and Sephiroth.'

"No..g-get away..." I looked over at her. She's was sweating. Nightmare. I shook her.

"Sakoura...you have to wake up...please.." I shook her again.

"Leave me alone! C-cissnei! Angeal! Sephiroth, Zack!"

I shook her again, more roughly. "Sakoura!"

Her eyes shot open and she sat up, panting heavily. She had tears running down her face. I placed my hand on her shoulder. She looked at me.

"Leon..." It was barely audible. She wrapped her arms around my neck, crying on my shoulder. 'Should I push her off? Or should I just sit here and do nothing?' I wrapped my arms around her. 'Or, of course, none of the above.' I rubbed her back. It's hard not feel guilty. No one should have to go through that emptiness. Not even a Nobody. She tightened her grip. After a good twenty minutes she stopped crying. She was still sad on the inside, that was obvious. 'But she still has her arms around me. And I don't mind why?' I had been so busy trying to answer that question I hadn't notice she had fallen asleep. Until her arm's started slouching a little. I looked at her. I sighed. I set her on her bed and sat up. I stretched. I started walking towards the door.

"Leon.."

I stopped. I glanced at her over my shoulder. She had new tears running down her face. I turned around and walked over to her. I wiped a tear away with my gloved hands.

"Please don't go..."

"Sakoura, I have to. It's getting late and besides, Sora and the other's are bound to stay the night because it's getting late."

"Leon...please...just stay with me.."

"Sakoura..I doubt either of your brothers would approve of t-" I stopped. Tears were running down her face again. 'Great Leon. You screwed up.' I sighed.

"Fine..under one condition...you stop crying." She nodded. I walked over to her couch. I was stopped. I glanced over my shoulder to see her holding the corner of my jacket. I knew what she wanted, what she was going to ask.

"You sure?" She nodded. I sighed.

"Fine. Scoot over." She scooted over. I laid down on her bed. I tensed as she wrapped her arms around me and laid her head on my chest. 'This wouldn't be a first.' I closed my eyes. 'Let's see...I'm in here why again?' Because you like her. 'Shiva. You've been quiet for this long. Couldn't you stay quiet a lil longer? That would be lovely.' No. I refuse to be quiet. You know you like her. As much as you hate to admit it, you've outgrown Rinoa. You like Sakoura more then you did Rinoa. 'Can you please hush? I want to think peacefully. Not with you interrupting my thoughts.' You'll admit it one day. You like her and, sooner or later, you'll accept it. 'Damn it Shiva. Can't you just stay out? Oh wait..I'm the one who junctioned you. Never mind.'

I opened my eyes. I looked down, slightly, to see her examining my pendant, Greiver.

She looked up at me.

"Wow..."

"What?"

"Your eyes..."

"What about them?"

"They're...beautiful."

That was the last thing I expected her to say.

"Yours aren't that bad either."

She smiled. I could feel my heart beat increase. You're in loooovvvvee. 'Shut it.'

She yawned.

"Go to sleep if your tired."

"yeah yeah..." She looked at me. She pressed her lips gently against mine. I would have wrapped my arms around her to deepen the kiss if she hadn't pulled away. She laid her head back on my chest. 'That doesn't surprise me if she could hear my heartbeat.' You're in love Leonhart. Just admit it! 'Shiva..there is nothing to admit. She's JUST a friend.' But you want her to be more than that. I sighed. I looked at her.

'Hyne...she looks like an angel when she's asleep.' I ran my fingers through her raven hair with midnight blue streaks. 'She reminds me so much of Rinoa it's scary.' I continued to run my fingers through her hair. I felt a small amount of water run down my neck. I placed my hand where the water stopped and traced it up to my eye. 'Hyne...why? Why did the Heartless have to do this? Why did they have to create so much suffering for everyone?' I hated this. I hadn't cried since the day I was taken away from my friends. I shed a few tears and vowed I wouldn't do it again. I sat up, her arms still draped around my neck and her forehead now resting against my collarbone. I wiped the now new formed tears. 'Come on Leon...you're better then this. But then again...I am still human. Humans have emotions. No matter how much I hate to admit it...I miss them.' I continued to wipe the tears that threatened to spill.

Sakoura's P.O.V.~

I blinked several times and squinted. I felt water trickle down my neck, but not a lot. I shivered. Well that was cold. I heard a light sob.I looked up.

"Leon..."

He looked at me. I wiped a few tears off his face. He hugged me tighter and rested his chin on my head. He'll tell me when the time comes. I hugged him tightly.

"Please don't cry...you're better then that.."

After about another ten minutes, or so, his sobbing stopped. He loosened his grip on me.

"You probably think I'm a wimp because I cried..." He looked away.

"No...It's normal. Everyone does it. Some do it more frequently then others, that's all. But you are still human. You have to show some emotions. Don't keep everything bottled up."

Leon's P.O.V.~

"I'll try not to."

"Wrong. That's an order. Understand?" I chuckled.

"Yes mother." She giggled. She got up, to my utter confusion. She walked over to her door and closed it. I was practically rejoicing that it was dark. Several sick ideas popped into my head, all involving her body and mine. I knew my face was heating up. She walked over and sat down next to me. I heard her yawn. I grabbed both of her wrists and pulled her on top of me. I could see the blush on her face. I dare you to tease her. 'How?' Use your head. Your a bright guy. 'If I get killed. it's your fault.' So be it. I smirked. She was avoiding my gaze for a reason. I wrapped my arms around her.

"Sakoura..." She looked at me. I leaned towards her ear.

"I'm going to bang you so hard that it will be impossible for your brothers not to hear." She tensed. I couldn't help but smirk. I pulled her body tighter against mine and grinded my hips lightly against hers.

"L-leon what are you doing?!" I burst out laughing, covering my mouth. She growled.

"Two can play at that game." I felt a sharp pain on my neck. She withdrew quickly and licked her lips. I placed a hand on my apparent love bite.

"That was sick."

She laughed. "Hey, you started it."

"And I'm ending it." She giggled. She laid her head back on my chest and wrapped my arms around my neck.

"Nighty night Leon."

"Night Sakoura." I hesitated. 'I hate to admit it. But you're right Shiva. I do feel something more about her.' Told you so. 'Should I tell her though?' Your choice. I might be in your conscious but I'm not your conscious.

"Hey Sakoura..." She snored lightly. I sighed. I guess it could wait I kissed the top of her head. I closed my eyes, sleep finally taking over.
