Difficult Romance

Chapter three

Vincent's POV

Well, it's almost time to go. I'm glad that Red XIII is inviting us to celebrate. I've changed over the past year. I've loosened up a bit. Okay, actually a lot. I talk to people a lot and they like talking to me. I've moved on since Lucrecia. She is fine now and will one day will find peace. I know her well enough to know that she would not want me to be sad over her. I'm still young. Hell, I'm not even thirty years old. I am sure that I will find someone to love soon. I've opened up to people. I've cut my hair and look more like a normal person instead of a Turk. But I have not given up fighting. I'm still an expert with guns and rifles. And I still use my powers sometimes.

When I came to stay in Gonganga, the people here welcomed me. I helped them rebuilt their village. My powers came in handy in moving the parts of the old destroyed mako reactor out of the village. After that the people helped me build a house here, even though I said that I could do it by myself. The village is in fine shape now. Soon I will see everyone. Last time we saw each other was at Cloud and Tifa's wedding. I wonder how everyone else has changed.

I transform into Chaos and fly off to Cosmo Canyon.

Red XIII's POV

They should start arriving any minute now. Suddenly I see a black winged creature flying towards me. Ha, I knew that Vincent would be the first to arrive.

"How's it been, Vincent?"

The creature lands and transforms into a man with short black hair who is wearing a red shirt and black pants.

"Well, I see that you decided to dress like the living"

"Well I can't always be the type of guy who watches over from mountain tops in a cape, so I guess I'm the first to arrive?"

"Yup, wait look, it's the Highwind" I answer. There is the Highwind, which lands out side and three figures walk up. Two of them I recognize immediately. There is cid dressed up in his pilot outfit and Reeve in his Blue suit. But there is a young woman with them with shoulder-length orange hair in a green shirt, Jeans dress and black shoes.

She says "What, never seen a lady before Red?"

"Yuffie, is that you?" I ask, surprised.

"Yup, it's good old me"

"Yeah, believe it or not that's our Yuffie, who stole our materia and left us to die" Says Cid.

"HEY, FUCK OFF CID! I'm now more mature."

Reeve snickers, but immediately stops when Yuffie glares at him.

"Okay, Yuffie I understand that you are finally growing up" says Reeve, "but answer me this, why the fuck is your hair orange?"

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------

Cloud's POV

We are almost there. I can't wait to see them all, especially Aeris. Finally I will see those beautiful green eyes and that face full of joy. If I see that, then my spirits will also be lifted. I can't stop thinking about her. I wonder if she misses me as much as I miss her. I doubt it though. How I envy the person who dates her. He may not realize it, but he is the happiest man in the world and I would do anything to be in his shoes. I still remember when I opened up my eyes after the fall from the reactor and saw her worrying about me. I should be with her right now. Even Cait Sith, I mean Reeve predicted it. But I still remember his other fortune: You will find what you are looking for, but you will lose something dear to you. That has happened twice to me. The first was during our journey to destroy Sephiroth. I did kill him, but only after he killed Aeris right in front of me. The second time was three months after our victory over him. I wanted to see Aeris again more than anything, to see her beautiful eyes. That happened, but then I lost her again. She left and I was "forced" to make Tifa my wife. I see the entrance to Cosmo Canyon and drive up there. I hope Aeris is there.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------

Yuffie's POV

A black car drives up and two people get out. There is Cloud dressed in a blue short sleeve shirt and blue pants. Man he must be one unhappy fellow. And Tifa wearing a black tank top and black pants. That leaves only Barret and Aeris. They better hurry up. I want to show them my new hair. Reeve seems to like it.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------

Cloud's POV

I see that everyone is here except Yuffie, Barret, and Aeris. Looks like I will have to wait a little bit longer.

"Hi guys"

"I wondered when you would come Cloud" Says an orange haired woman.

Tifa asks "Excuse me, but who are you?"

"Why doesn't anyone recognize me, it's me Yuffie"

"Whoa" I answer.

So now we only have to wait for Aeris and Barret.

Suddenly a huge green car comes and out steps Barret and Marlene.

"So, howz everyone been doin?" He asks.

"Barret" Exclaims Tifa.

"Hi Tifa, whoa whoz the girl with the orange do?"

"Geez, Barret it's me Yuffie"

"So that only leaves Aeris" Says Red XIII.

Where is she? I want to see her. I'm really anxious.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------

Aeris's POV

I'm almost there now. I'm driving on rocky hills now. Well, I'll finally see him. Just a few moments are left. Everyone will be happy to see me, I'm sure of that. They probably have changed, just like I have. I have waited for this day for a long time, to finally see Cloud again. If I had just gone to his house by myself I just would have absolutely no idea of what to do. But this way is good, since we are both just guests and can act normally. Just talking to him would be good to make me feel a bit better. After all, I desperately miss being able to give a real smile of happiness. When I get there I will of course smile, but it still will be a completely empty smile. But I won't be that empty today. Let's put it like this, on this day I will be a little bit less unhappy than on all the other days from the day he broke my heart to this day. I do envy Tifa a lot. She did beat me to Cloud, and while I detest her for that I also have absolutely no choice but to also congratulate her and feel a tiny bit of "respect" if you can call it that, for her victory over me. Ah, there's Cosmo Canyon now. Everyone else is already there and I drive up to meet them, and Cloud as well.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------

Cloud's POV

As we are talking all of us suddenly hear something. We turn around to see a bright red car drive up to us. The windows are dark so I can't see who is inside the car. This has got to be her. It just has to be Aeris in that car, with her beautiful green eyes, long brown hair, and a smile full of joy and happiness. The door opens up and out steps a woman dressed in red with short curly brown hair and is also wearing dark sunglasses.

--------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------

DM: Cliffy!

Aeris: Come on you can't just stop there.

DM: Yes I can and I want three reviews for another chapter

Aeris: Three?

DM: You want me to make it five

Aeris: NO!
