Final Fantasy - All Series Fan Fiction ❯ It's you that I adore ❯ Part I ( Chapter 1 )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Disclaimer: So I was re-playing Final Fantasy 7 the other day and I got to thinking if me writing a Cloud/Tifa/Vincent triangle would work out. All signs point to a definite no, but I suppose giving it a try wouldn't hurt. Oh and to the patient readers who have been bearing with me on my other stories not being updated; I can promise new chapters will soon be out again. Thanks for all your support.

Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you
Or cancel it, though I know it must be
The killing time- Unwillingly mine
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you
Or cancel it, though I know it must be
The killing time- Unwillingly mine

Night came. The moon looked as lively as it always was when full; and I mumble a few words even I don't understand. I've had enough of my talking though. This entire week I've been so lost in my thoughts I think right now would be a good time to stop. Placing clean sheets onto the bed I notice Cloud is gone. Nothing new. Ever since we started living together he began a tendency to somehow miraculously vanish all throughout the day, and then reappear not soon after dark. He had mentioned something about nightmares, which at first seemed believable enough. It's just been happening so frequently now that I'm starting to question if there's more to what he's saying. Don't get me wrong, I do love him, but it seems as if each night he morphs into this stubbornly defiant creature that viciously attacks my sanity. It is devouring all of us, him included.
As I get up to change into some pj's, I hear the door to our bedroom open and shut violently, signaling Cloud had returned. I move over to embrace him, though he does not respond as willingly. “Stop Tifa.” I look at him puzzled with the immediate intuition that something was most defiantly wrong.

Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him

Words cannot describe the lack of emotion on his face as I looked into his eyes. “I need to leave” he said. But I would not and still do not believe it.
Bearing myself to him, I asked for us to be together and not for him to leave. But Cloud only continued to brush me the cold shoulder. I suppose there was nothing more I could do to change his mind. Despite the fact that I was so very close to hating him right now, part of me will always love him too. I know the entire concept is incredibly cliché and naive, but that's all there is to it. As tough as I am and seem, I do need sympathy and love which only he can give.
Cloud's scowl deepened. “Sometimes things are so hard to cope with I make mistakes, I say things that I shouldn't, I do things that really should not be done.” He straightened out his shoulders in a brief pause but promptly continued. “I am sorry and I did love you Tifa, but I can't keep doing this. To you, to me, to Aeris…”
I bit down on my lip, though it somehow didn't surprise me. After all of this... after what we've been through together, he still had feelings for the flower girl.
I stared at the floor trying with every fiber, every muscle in my body not to give into such a petty emotion of heartbreak. But before I could even respond, Cloud had seized me by the shoulders and clamped his mouth down on mine in the most sincere kiss I have ever received. I never wanted the moment to end, but at the same time I knew the longer we kept this up, the more pain I'd feel for the aftershock.
A primal drive suddenly had taken over in Cloud as I felt him briefly pressing his body to mine. My mind was suddenly fogged up. Images of the two of us against the wall - his pants unzipped, my skirt hiked up.

In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon

I growled a little in protest, which only served to grant access to his tongue that slid across mine. I tried to shove him away with my hands, square on his chest. But with one skillful movement he pushed forward, and my arms were trapped tightly behind his head.
He kissed me again, firmly but not violently as he had last time. Overcoming me with his size and leverage, Cloud pressed me back into the bed, covering my body with his.
Then, as unexpected as it had all started, he released me.
“Don't come after me” he mumbled; adjusting himself off the bed and darting straight for the door. With that, he had vanished, gone again from my life. Only this time I knew he wouldn't be coming back.

La la la la la...
Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you
Or cancel it, though I know it must be
The killing time- Unwillingly mine
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you
Or cancel it, though I know it must be
The killing time- Unwillingly mine
