it was a cozy afternoon, like always whenever you decided to visit rafayel. Mo Studio was bathed in sunlight as you sat on the table, browsing through a magazine about the latest fashion trends. then something shifted, subtle, nothing too dramatic at first. it was still too early but you were used to it. the first cramp as you stood up from the chair, hits like a warning shot. you freeze mid step, one hand resting on the back of the chair. it was still too early, your period should start next week and not now. not today. then another cramp, this time it was so bad that the ache bloomed in your whole abdomen. the ache was familiar, yet unwelcomed.

rafayel who had worked on a new painting noticed the shift in the air. he heard the small gasp escaping your lips, making him shift on his chair "are you okay?". one of his brows lifted as he saw how you clutched your abdomen, not answering right away.

through gritted teeth you tried to wave it off "yeah its just .. its nothing" the second wave of cramps hit harder. you bend slightly forward, pressing your palm strongly against your abdomen. trying to ease the pain. a quiet involuntary hiss escaped your lips.

then you heard his voice "hey. that doesnt look like nothing to me" His legs carried him across the room, fast. by the time you opened your eyes again, rafayel is already in front of you. his brows are knitted together in a way thats far more serious than usual.

"its really nothing, you worry too much rafayel" you insisted. voice weak as you tried to stand up straight again. another cramp making it hard to not lose your composure completely.

rafayel on the other hand doesnt look convinced in the slightest. his hand found its way on your back, rubbing soothing circles on it "you look pale, you know that?" "im always pale okay!" your voice was louder than intended. "i mean ... im sorry but its just cramps, nothing serious."

for a moment rafayel looks a bit confused. what kind of cramps made you this vulnerable? "cramps.." you nod for a moment, already regretting that you said anything to him. there is a brief pause, long enough that you almost expect him to brush it off as some kind of joke. your relief was short lived as rafayel leans in.

"what kind of cramps?" he couldnt be serious. you couldnt do more than stare at him for a few minutes before finally opening your mouth again "rafayel." his name left your lips in a serious tone, implicating that it would be better for him to not push any further. of course he didnt cared. "what?" he says defensively "there are different kind of cramps. hand cramps, leg cramps-" before he could say anything else you pushed your finger against his lips.

"period cramps."

the words landed and for once, rafayel is completely speechless. you almost laugh because of the expression of his face. rafayel looked so utterly confused and flustered it was almost too cute to handle.

"oh ..." his voice was muffled against your finger, yet soft at the same time. rafayel's eyes searched yours for a moment before his gaze dropped down to your abdomen. "yeah.." you muttered "so, im just gonna sit down on the sofa for a bit." taking your finger away from his lips, you moved past him towards the couch. rafayel doesnt stop you but you can feel his gaze on your back the entire way. as you sank down into the soft cushions a sigh escaped your lips, curling slightly inward as another cramp rolls through you.

"what do i do?" you glance up. rafayel was still standing at the same spot where you left him, arms crossed loosely. there's something uncharacteristically in his posture. you blink for a split second "what?" "what do i do?" rafayel gestured vaguely, like the answer should be obvious by now "is there something im supposed to get? or say? or .. fix?"

despite being in pain a small smile appeared on your lips. he looked so cute and helpless "its not really something you can fix, rafayel." he frowns "that sounds .. awful." another chuckle escaped your lips. another cramp interrupts whatever you were about to say. you suck in a breath, pressing your hands more firmly against your abdomen.

"okay enough, i dont like that" rafayel's face twisted one more time. "its fine-" "it is clearly not fine!" hearing his loud voice you flinched slightly as he started to pace around the room. you could clearly see how his mind was working. to rafayel a period wasnt completely a strange thing, he had heard of it. the only difference was, that he never saw how bad it could be.

"you are in pain .. there needs to be a solution. so you, stay there" with that he dissapeared into the hallway. its not like you planned on walking around his house at the moment. so you kept leaning against the cushions, closing your eyes to soak in the silence of the room. it was soothing in some kind of way but that silence only lasted 5 minutes. rafayel was already returning, you heard a clattering followed by a curse.

"rafayel? be careful okay?" you said from the sofa. "i am being careful" he insisted, which is immediately undermined by the sound of something else almost dropping onto the floor. when he finally appears in the doorway, you saw how much stuff he was really carrying. Two blankets, a glass of water, a mug thats probably too hot to be held the way he was doing it, a heating pad and a bunch of snacks. your mouth fell open, rafayel looked like he was going onto some kind of battlefield. "rafayel.." "yes?" "why do you look like you raided an entire store?"

with a huff he sets everything down in front of you. carefully to not spill anything from the water glass and the mug "because i didnt knew which of these things would actually help you" gosh, in your eyes he was the cutest boyfriend right now. you nearly felt sorry for him. after some struggles with the heating pad, mostly due to him not admitting he didnt put the plug in correctly, you two finally managed to make it work. "hah victory" rafayel looked over at you with the biggest grin on his face as you placed the heating pad on your abdomen. "you look really proud of yourself" you admitted which was met with another huff from his lips. "As it should, cutie"

as the cramps slowly got better you leaned into him as he had settled next to you on the sofa. the warmth from his body seeping into your own helped a lot. plus the heating pad was still pressed against your abdomen. "you know" you mumbled half drowsy against his shoulder "you did better than i expected." a theatralic pained expression appeared on his face but not for long. it made space for a soft smile as rafayel pressed a kiss onto the top of your head "next time i will do better, i promise." "next time?" "this is a recurring problem isnt it? so i will do better next time."

thats when you looked at him, really looked at him. at the way his hand is placed above yours, like it belongs there. like the way his face has softened despite his teasing nature. closing your eyes you smiled a bit nuzzling closer against his shoulder. "yeah" you mumbled softly "you probably will." for once rafayel didnt tried to turn your words into a joke. he just stayed next to you. warm, steady and just a little bit clumsy. despite everything, he did his best and tried to make you feel better.

which was worth much more than some simple words of comfort.

song to listen to while reading: FallingForYou

complicated. if he had to describe the relationship you two had, he'd settle on complicated. not because the two of you fought. you didnt. not really. it was complicated due to the fact, that you two always moved in a space between almosts and maybes.

he liked you. more than he probably should. more than you like him. thats what he's telling himself whenever you looked at him with those puppy eyes. he liked you so much that it knocked his breath out of his lungs, whenever your hand brushed against his. its like his body forgot how to function properly with you around. at night he dreamed of you. dreams which lingered after he woke up. even then he tried not to think about them throughout the day.

it was ridiculous. he knew that. he told himself that over and over again.

sometimes he would lean in too close or his shoulder would bump yours by "accident". all these little things were excuses to get close to you. yes, maybe he was pathetic and scared for not telling you directly how he really feels. but how could he? how could he risk the friendship he had with you?

one night he nearly confessed. you were watching a movie with him, one of those cheesy ones you always liked. they were not really the type of movies he enjoyed but for you? he would do anything for you. the way the light of the tv illuminated your face, the way your brows knitted together whenever there was an angsty scene and the way your knee would brush against his. the words were on the tip of his tounge. all it would take was courage, just a second of it would had been enough. then your face turned towards him, a smile playing on your lips as you told him how silly the main characters were. in that moment he swallowed the words down, like they never existed. locking them back inside his heart.

he told himself it was the right thing to do. that it was better this way, safer. as long he didnt said anything nothing would change. they could continue like every other day. laughing, hugging, telling jokes or simply sit next to each other without a worry in the world.

deep down caleb knew this was a lie because things were changing. it wasnt big changes, at least not on the outside but on the inside. caleb's thoughts would always circle back to you in the smallest moments. distraction didnt helped no matter how hard he tried. it was too much for his heart, he shouldnt feel this way. you were his best friend and losing you would destroy him.

whenever he told himself to stop, to put some distance between the two of you, he couldnt. his body simply refused to listen to him, always seeking your warmth. truthfully, he didnt want to. distance was the last think he needed in this dynamic.

as the days passed he became more greedy. it wasnt obvious, not at first. the shift was subtle, how his hand lingered longer on your knee. giving you the time to decide when to pull away, when it was enough. sometimes you did but more often you didnt. you stayed right beside him. letting his fingertips brush over your skin, his shoulder pressing against yours. it was intoxicating and caleb noticed it too. noticed how a simple hug wasnt enough anymore. how he found himself holding you longer and even then you didnt pulled away. it drove him crazy. it scared him from time to time.

because it wasnt something harmless anymore. it wasnt those quiet feelings he would tuck away and ignore as the day went on. it was growing, steady. like a flower which finally began to bloom inside his chest. whenever you laughed he wanted to be the reason for it. whenever you reached for him, he wished he wouldnt need to let go every again.

he wanted more. so much more that he began to imagining things, things he never dared to imagine before. how your lips would feel against his, soft and persistent. the taste of your skin under his tounge as he inhaled your scent. god, it drove him mad. so mad that his fists clenched at his sides when you walked by. noticing the sway of your hips as you walked past him just to get something from the living room. caleb's mind loved to betray him, how it twisted something normal into something dangerous. how it made his body react before he could stop it.

sometimes you would question him, eyebrow raised as he turned his face away. a soft red glow lingering on his cheeks. thats when the words started to tumble over as he spoke them. caleb tried so hard to reassure you that everything was okay. that he didnt thought about something "dirty" a few seconds ago. a shrug was all that was met with his dorky smile. as soon as you would turn around from him, his shoulders would relax, his fists unclenched and a sight would leave his lips. a sigh he didnt even knew he was holding the whole time.

sitting down on the couch he kept wondering for how long he could continue like this. because the more he fell in love with you, the harder it became to pretend that everything was okay.

sooner or later he wouldnt be able to hide it anymore.

leon kicked the door open with one foot. it was quiet, the whole house was dark. ada and zayne probably were already asleep upstairs in their rooms. his eyes shifted to the clock on the wall, it was 3am sharp. he was late, much later than he had promised to be back. with a grunt leon threw the bag on the floor. it stung. every movement hurted deep inside his bones as he kicked off his boots, not minding to put them away properly. stumbling down the hallway, leon noticed hos much his body really hurt. maybe he had overdone it this time, especially his right leg felt strained. after he finally reached the bathroom his tall body leaned against the doorframe, inhaling heavily. the light burned in his eyes as he finally walked in front of the mirror.

leon looked miserable. there were multiple cuts on his face, his hair was a mess with dried blood between some hair strands, even his shirt had seen better days but the worst part was probably his left side. a huge spot of blood has soaked the fabric. most of it was already dried but god it smelled badly. while he removed his shirt, leon didnt heard the soft padding of footsteps coming down the stairs.

it was zayne, he only wanted to get something to drink as he got distracted by the dirty boots on the floor on the hallway. "Dad..?" his voice was soft as he walked forward, rubbing his eyes a bit. noticing the light in the bathroom he pushed the door slightly open with one hand. there sitting on the edge of the bathtub was leon, bandaging the wound on his side. leon was so focused that he didnt notice zayne right away. only when he looked up, because of the sound of a choking sob, he finally saw zayne. his son was standing near the doorframe, wearing his snowman pyjama ada got him for his birthday. "shit .." leon murmured struggling to stand up. "M-Mom said no cursing dad" zaynes lips were trembling as he said that. despite being scared and worry he still kept the rules from his mom in mind.

slowly zayne waddled into the bathroom, sitting down on the rug right in front of leon. his eyes moved to the bandage on his body, a faint red spot was forming on the white fabric. "listen zayne, you shouldnt be seeing this its not.-" "does it hurt?" "what?" zayne asked again "does it hurt dad?" for a moment leon didnt knew how to respond properly. how could he tell his own son that he was, indeed, hurt. knowing how much zayne despiced it seeing his parents in distress or hurt. with a sigh leon's hands grabbed zayne on his hip just to place the boy on his lap. "it hurts yes. dont worry, it will be better tomorrow okay?" trying to comfort zayne, leon ruffled his hair a bit.

but little zayne didnt believed him. for an 8 year old he was really smart, thanks to all the medical books he read. placing his hands on his fathers arms he looked up at him "cant you stop? going out ... cant you find another ... uh job?" the concept of a job was still a bit foreign to zayne. he only knew that it was the way for adults to make money. "i wish i could zaynie, but its not that easy. the world ... needs me" "but mom and i need you too?"

hearing these words from his son, leon's breath catched inside his throat. zayne was right. they needed him too but .. how could be abandone the world so easily? as he looked into his son's eyes he saw his whole world in them. without warning he hugged zayne tightly, not caring how much that movement hurt at the moment. "you are right zayne, you two need me too. probably more than the world" zayne nuzzled his face against his fathers neck as leon slowly stood up, leaving the bathroom. "dad, i want to be a doctor one day!" "a doctor huh? im sure you will make it. you are the smartest boy in the whole world. but why a doctor?" zayne giggled a bit before looking back up at leon again "easy! so i can treat your wounds and make you healthy again!"

leon's heart clenched, hearing he was the reason his son was so determined to become a doctor. placing a kiss on zaynes temple, as he climbed up the stairs to his son's room. before he reached the door to open it zayne started to squirm and pout. "whats wrong?" "can i sleep with you and mom today?" a soft smile appeared on leon's face "of course my little snowman"

reaching the masterbedroom leon could already see ada curled up on her side of the bed. whenever he came home late to this sight it warmed his heart. knowing he had a family to come home too. putting zayne in the middle of the bed, ada stirred for a moment. opening her eyes slowly she looked at leon "go back to sleep sweetheart ... zayne only wanted to sleep with us tonight"

half asleep ada wrapped one arm around zaynes waist, pulling the boy under her blanket. zayne giggled a bit; moving closer against his mom's warm body. as leon finally came to bed too, zayne reached his hand out. his fingers curled around leon's index and middle finger, holding them close. it always helped him sleep at night. turning to his side, leon reached over tucking a strand of ada's hair behind her ear. a gentle smile appeared on her face as he leaned forward placing a kiss on her cheek. after that he also gave zayne a good night kiss.

closing his eyes he wrapped one arm around the both of them as good as he could. keeping them save and warm all night. he would do anything for his family ... yes, even quitting his job and leave the world to fight for itself. thats where he belongs. right here with his son and his wife. forever.

the house was nearly silent. only from upstairs the quiet sounds of an ongoing tv show were playing. you never slept in complete silence whenever leon wasnt at home. it made you feel save, it simulated that you werent completely alone in this big house. a house you both chose together when looking for a place. it became simply too cramped inside leon's small city apartment. you spent most of your time at his place anyways. when the two of you finally moved into this house, it didnt seemed that big. until the day leon left for a mission. suddenly the house felt too empty, too big for a single person. it didnt even helped that he had gifted you a puppy, mumbling something like "so you wont feel lonely anymore when im away." sure a dog kept your mind busy, you loved that little furball but he couldnt replace your boyfriend. it couldnt silence the constant worry whenever he was fighting terorrism out there.

leon and you had met 2 years ago in a bar. it was a simple girls night between you and your colleagues from work. who would had thought that the most handsome man on this planet would be there too. sure he was 47 back then but god his eyes, his dumb jokes and that smile. yes that smile. it was the reason why you gave him your number. from then on you two had hit it off and everything else was history. now two years later you were laying in the shared bed, which was too big, too empty without him. the worry nearly consumed you, he wasnt home yet, despite promising to come home tonight. he had promised to be back before dinner. your eyes grew heavy as you pulled leon's blanket closer against your chest. sleep finally washed over you as the tv kept playing in the backround.

around 2am in the morning the front door to their shared house finally opened. leons shoulders slumbed forward as the door clicked shut behind him. it was far too late, later than he had promised. tomorrow he wouldnt hear the end of it, knowing how worried you must had been the whole time. upstairs he heard the tv playing, indicating that you were already asleep. kicking his boots from his feet, he throws his duffel bag into one of the corners. his feet dragged over the stairs as his heart hammered inside his chest. all he wanted was to get to you. for 2 long months he was away, away from the only person he could call "home".

slowly and quietly leon opened the door to their shared bedroom. the moment he finally saw you, his whole body relaxed. walking over to the bed he pulled his shirt over his head, while peeling himself out of his pants and the rest of his gear. not minding if they were still stained with blood or dirt. the washing machine and the bathroom could wait. more important was the matter or rather the person right in front of him. your breathing was slow, telling him you were really already asleep. carefully leon moved your hair to the side as he climbed into the bed behind you.

his arm snaked around your waist while he pressed his face against the back of your neck. inhaling your scent his eyes fluttered shut. a slow grunt crept up his throat as his thumb drew soft circles on the skin of your hips. he had missed this, had missed you. your warmth seeped into his body as leon pressed his broad chest against you, pulling you even closer. one of his legs slid between yours just to be as close as possible to you. this was the only place he felt safe. he inhaled again, slower this time. savouring your scent while pressing a lazy kiss on your shoulder.

"missed you so much ... missed this" leon mumbled against your skin, making sure not to disturb your sleep. his hand on your waist slid underneah your shirt, palm splaying across your stomach. feeling the gentle rise of your breathing. sometimes when he woke up from nightmares in the middle of the night, he did the same thing. making sure you were still alive, still real. you stirred slightly against his touch, your body turning inside his arms to face him. it was instinctively, you always searched for leon's warmth in the middle of the night. so when your half asleep brain finally registered that he was indeed here, your eyes opened slowly.

a slow smile appeared on your face as a hand came up, resting against his cheek. "hello you .." your voice was raspy as your thumb brushed gently over leon's stuble at his jawline. "you're late." "i know baby .. i know, im sorry" leon leaned against your touch, savouring every second of this moment. the smile on your face only grew wider as you turned fully into his direction. scrunching your nose you couldnt help but laugh "you stink."

pinching your cheek, leon pulled you flush against his body. the first thing he would do in the morning was taking a shower. for now he simply lowered his head, burying his face inside your hair. this is where he wants to be. if he could, he would never let you go. would never go back out there ever again. the warmth of your body against his own and the exhaustion in his bones, pulled him slowly into a deep sleep. hoping that today, those nightmares wouldnt haunt him. hoping that you would keep him save.

while the world needed him, he needed you.

clearly that was a stupid idea but leon's colleagues insisted to finally meet his son. what better opportunity there was than establishing a "bring your kid to work day" for that? yes it was all marvin's idea. leon had been so secretive about his son the whole time, that the rpd kept wondering if he really had a son. its not like leon hid his son on purpose, the reason was; well that zayne was a really shy kid. he barely spoke to anyone beside his parents. his nose always buried into one of those complicated books, leon hardly understood himself.

so when the day finally came, zayne was literally clinging onto leon's leg. his hands grabbing the rough fabric of his fathers jeans tightly, like it was his only anchor. all eyes were on little zayne and leon already knew it had been a bad idea to bring his son along.

"alright alright, enough staring, you will scare the kid." leons voice was gruff as he placed a hand on his son's shoulder. leading him to his desk where he put zayne on the chair. immediately the boy scanned the items on the desk. a cup which said "#1 dad", an old notebook with some weird doodling in it and of course, pictures. a lot of them actually. mostly of leon and his mom, ada. reaching out his hands, zayne grabbed one of the pictures with his mom on it. he was at the rpd for only, what, 10 minutes?

"oh no" leon let out a sigh as he already see the tears in zaynes eyes. "whats wrong, rookie?" marvin came up from behind, his brows furrowed as he saw the slightly trembling lip from zayne. that was the face of a kid who could cry any second now. "zayne is really attached to his mom. i knew i should had put away the pictures before bringing him here" there it was, the first sob which nearly choked inside zayne's throat at the mention of his mom by his father.

slightly panicking leon tried to get the picture out of his son's hands. these counter measures only made zayne hugging the picture more tightly and his bottom lip tremble even more. some of the kids from the other cops, even offered their plushies. nothing worked. zayne just shook his head violently while turning his back to everyone. he wanted his mom. not a plushie, not a stupid picture of her, he just wanted to go back home.

"hey, what does your kid normally like?" one of the other cops ellbowed leon's side, leaning in closer as they tried to come up with a plan. "well, he likes books. but not picture books. sometimes he just sits on the carpet reading those complicated medical books" "damn so your kid's smart, smart. let me see if we have some of those" with those words the cop walks away into the big library. leaving the others alone with the task to soothe a homesick kid.

the only thing that helped temporary was being close to his dad. leon couldnt bear the sight of his son being that upset. so he scooped him up into his arms, craddling the little boy against his chest. only then zayne stopped, at least a little bit. he hid his face against leon's chest while still holding the picture frame of his mother. normally zayne was used to it, being away from his mother. especially whenever she was on a mission and he needed to stay with his father. now he was away from the comfort of their home. he couldnt sit down with his father onto the carpet just to play with his toy medical tools and his teddy patient. he couldnt sit on the kitchen counter while leon made his favourite dessert and the worst, he couldnt hide in his room.

"shh daddy's here ..." leon patted zayne's back gently. "next time we bring your teddy patient along, does that sound like a good idea?" at the mention of his teddy, zayne nodded a tiny bit. the teddy was a gift from his mom after she found out that her son liked medical stuff.

then the cop came running down the stairs, waving with two books inside his hands. so they found something interesting in the library. "lets see what they got for you mh?" as leon walked towards his co workers, zayne grabbed the fabric of his fathers shirt. still wary of those strange men but as soon as he saw the cover of one of the books, his hazel-green eyes lit up.

squirming out of his fathers arms, zayne landed with both feet on the ground. making his way towards marvin who already inspected the books. asking if this kind of lecture wasnt too difficult for a child.

"n-no its not!" zaynes voice was loud enough for marvin to stop his questions. with both hands the little boy grabbed one of the books before walking over to his fathers desk again. opening the book on a random page, zayne began to read quietly. over time some of the cops gathered around the boy. looking over his shoulder as they tried to understand what all the different words meant.

marvin was the first who dared to ask a question about a passage which explained various parts of the human heart. in that moment zayne seemed like a different person. he began to explain all the different things. from the chambers of the heart to how the sound of a heart was called in medical terms. leon stood at the side, arms crossed over his chest as he listened to his son. he was happy, content and a little bit proud of his smart boy.

over time zayne made some friends among the kids too as they told him their plushies were "sick" and needed help. the rpd was filled with childrens laughter and zayne was in the middle of it. leon's son was so loved by his co workers that it made his heart swell inside his chest. he never felt so proud in his entire life, seeing how his son finally made some friends all by himself. not needing to hide behind his father again.

as the day drew to an end, zayne was back in leons arms. leaning tired against his fathers shoulder as the cops packed up their stuff. all the parents were allowed to leave early so their kids would get into bed at an appropriate time. zayne protested at first, wanting to explain more things to the other kids. in the end he was also overrun my tiredness. marvin ruffled his hair, telling him to come back soon with leon. zayne just smiled softly as he nodded, already calling marvin his "uncle".

at home zayne jumped on the sofa while telling his mom all the things he experienced at the rpd. of course he didnt mentioned that he nearly cried. he was a professional even at 8 years old. leon who stood in the kitchen to prepare dinner just smiled silently to himself as ada praised their son to the moon and back. he couldnt wish for a better family, for a better wife and a better son. leon was happy. really happy.

and maybe, just maybe, he finally placed a framed picture of zayne on his desk too.

♡.°₊ˎ SONG FOR THIS ONESHOT

your hands were sweaty as you were sitting outside in front of the old house. it wasnt something fancy, just an old block house deep inside the woods which served as some kind of shelter for your little group. The cold evening air blew a few strands of hair into your face. It would be a while before he would come outside to join you. for a short moment you regretted volunteering for this sort of misson, not that it would be difficult. this wasnt the reason why you suddenly became so nervous. You looked up at the darkening sky with your lips pressed together. A few small stars could be seen here and there, so it was a perfect evening to search for a flower which only blooms once a month on a full moon night. The fabric of your light blue dress began to rustle as you moved back and forth on the tree trunk. its been 20 minutes already, what took him that long? you wiped your sweaty hands on your dress once again. If this continues you would have to go back inside to change again. surely tifa would raise an eyebrow, probably asking herself if that was some kind of sheme from you. making sure that "he" will really come with you. he trusted you, so you trusted him, naturally. but still, you were nervous. This would be the first time in months that you've done something alone together. The others accompanied you on every other mission. You loved your friends but sometimes you wished you had more time alone with him. from behind the old wooden door finally opened but you were too nervous to turn around to face him yet.

"are you ready?" his voice was gentle in your ear which why you finally turned around.

the second you did, you cursed yourself for not preparing a bit longer. the man in front of you was none other than Cloud Strife, your best friend, your companion and the men you had a crush on for so many months now. cloud had always been beautiful in your eyes but tonight he looked completely different. his armor was gone, so he only wore his dark turtleneck tank top, matched with a pair of dark pants. your eyes traveled down on his arms as you noticed that he also werent wearing the gloves which he was normally wearing. compared to him you looked like always. even his blonde styled hair looked a bit messy underneath the rising moonlight.

"whats wrong? did you saw a ghost?" raising one of his eyebrows, cloud crossed his arms in front of his chest. "i- uh no! you just look so different ..." "dont be silly and come ..."

without another word he finally started walking ahead. cloud never talked much, not even with you so it wasnt suprising that he didnt paid much attention to your remark. slowly you started to follow him into the woods. the both of you only heard rumours about this special flower. apparently it glows in the dark whenever moonlight hits one of its petals. beside that it didnt had any powers but tifa really wanted to plant one on her garden. at first you thought you could go alone but the second cloud heard that you were going outside at night, alone, he decided to tag along.

fidgeting with your fingers all you could see was his back in front of you. cloud even left his buster sword at home. looking down at his bare hand a slight glimmer of red crawled up your cheeks. there was only one time were you held hands with him and this only happened because of a small accident. it happened on one of the many Shinra ships. cloud was busy fighting off some of the soldiers while you were busy cracking the code to the main gate. It wasn't a difficult task as long as cloud could distract the others, but one soldier didn't seem to fall for it. suddenly someone grabbed your shoulder and pushed you backwards. you landed roughly against the nearest wall. Of course, cloud noticed this and immediately rushed to your side. he grabbed your hand to pull you behind him. the whole time he protected you, he never let go of your hand. so that was the closest you ever got to holding his hand with him. beside that nothing romantic ever happened between the two of you. after a while you came to the conclusion that cloud, probably, doesnt like you like this. in the beginning this perception was hard and you were heartbroken for days. maybe it was too much to ask for, considering how clumsy cloud is and that he doesnt really talk about his feelings.

"everything okay?" you nearly bumped against his chest, not noticing that cloud has stopped in his steps. were you sighing again? did he heard it? you could feel how your cheeks grew hotter with every passing second. in a fast motion you shook your head as cloud took a step into your direction. "are you sure? you were sighing pretty loudly. are you already tired? If yes .. dont worry we are nearly there"

you wanted to answer something but cloud turned around again. expecting to take up his pace you took a step forward but in the next moment something warm slipped into your hand. suprised your eyes darted downward and at the same time your heart nearly jumped out of your chest. cloud held your hand, he really held your hand. slowly your fingers closed around his palm. Whenever you pictured this day in your head, you never imagined that his hand would be so soft. it was like you were holding a fluffy cloud in your palm, carefully not to crush it.

with a slow motion cloud slowly started to walk again. like usual he didnt addressed the thing he just did and you were fine with it. by now you were too busy to calm down your pounding heart inside your chest. slowly cloud pulled you between some green bushes into a clearing. you could imagine that in this meadow many beautiful flowers were blooming, since its been night most of them were sleeping peacefully. As your eyes scanned the meadow, they stopped in a certain place. You immediately let go of cloud hand just so you could run to that spot.

"hey Y/N! whats wrong?" his voice rang in your ear but your eyes didnt left the spot. this was it, this wasnt a dream right?

suddenly you came to a halt and kneeled down on the ground. right in front of you were the glowing flower. it was so beautiful that you didnt even noticed how cloud kneeled down on the ground right beside you.

"its beautiful isnt it ...?" you asked him as your fingertips brushed over the delicate petals "yes ... more than beautiful" "say cloud how should we-"

the moment you turned your head into his direction you noticed that he was looking at you. cloud's face was so close and yet so far at the same time. from this distance you could clearly see his eyes which looked so beautiful to you. some other people were scared of him because of the Mako in them but for you, it was something totally normal. the glow from the flower was illuminating his face and for the first time you were able to see a slightly red shimmer on his cheeks. was he blushing? slowly you lift your hand up just to make sure youre not dreaming. mid air cloud catched your wrist with his own hand just to place it against his cheeks. at the same time your eyes widen feeling his soft warm skin at the back of your hand. what was wrong with him all of a sudden? why was he so affectionate?

"im sorry. i lied to you Y/N" "w-what do you mean ... ?" "tifa didnt wanted that flower. i just ... wanted to show you something beautiful ... and i thought such a flower would be the perfect thing you would enjoy"

you could see the hurt in his eyes, probably thinking you would be mad at him now. shaking your head you turned your hand inside of his palm into an direction so you were able to cup his cheek. how could you have been so blind? yes cloud never talked about his feelings but he always made sure to show them. especially around you he was always considerate, making sure that you felt comfortable on all their journeys.

a small smile appeared on your face "im not mad. thank you for showing me something so .. beautiful cloud."

the moment you pulled away from him to get up again, cloud squeezed your hand more tightly. in the next second your cheek was met with his chest, the soft fabric of his turtleneck shirt carressing your skin.

"cloud ...?" "Y/N I ..."

it was clear to you that he was struggling to find the right words. with a smile on your face you slowly lifted your head up, the red on his cheeks grew heavier with every second he kept looking at you. anxiety crawled up inside of you as his grip loosens around your body, what if he changed his opinion about you? a nervous chuckle escaped your mouth as you wanted to turn your head away but clouds hand on your cheek forced you to look back. there wasnt much time to contemplate what to say because in the next moment his warm lips met yours. at once your whole body felt like jelly as it immediately relaxed inside of his arms. it wasnt a passionate kiss he shared with you, it was a soft and careful kiss. clouds heartbeat hammered against your chest, it was so strong and loud that you could hear and feel it. as you wrapped both of your arms around his body to kiss him back, he slowly broke the kiss. clouds lips were still hovering above yours, just millimeters away. it was a sweet distraction from the words he finally managed to say;

"I love you, YN"

those words were enough, nothing more needed to be said. with a small nod your head moves forward to occupy his lips again. that was everything cloud needed as an an answer. the moon kept shining down on the both of you, wrapping your bodies in blue moonlight. it was like the whole forest approved of your feelings to each other as all the animals went quiet. around the both of you some fireflies took off from the grass into the sky. this moment belonged to you and cloud, no one could take this away from you anymore.
