Cloud Strife   
Nightmares become real...
Love remains the same....
But soon everything will disappear....
All because of me....
Today was just another day....Every time Cloud woke up every day a bit of him died....For it would just mean that it was getting closer and closer to that horrible day. Every time Cloud woke up, he felt himself as if he was getting older and older....This brand would really make him extremely tired at times too.... Today, Cloud was excepting an old friend to come for a visit. Repa. He's not seen her for a while too. Not since he taught her how to ride a bike. Repa had been like a baby sister to him for a long time. And that was a very close bond the two shares. But, Cloud was worried if Repa knew what he was now? Probably not. So if she didn't he would most likely be able to tell her.... Cloud was ready to exchange news with Repa too....He was getting dressed and walked down stairs to the bar that morning. He would just let everyone sleep in today. Tifa wouldn't be there any way...She was probably off doing errands....As Cloud walked over to the bar he made a fresh pot of coffee and got some muffins out of the cabinet.... Tifa made them last night. And the customers didn't finish them....That was Tifa....She was so kind to her customers.....She'd make sweets that were free in the morning with a fresh cup of coffee.....Cloud smiled at that.....And then heard the bells of the front door chime. Meaning some one was coming in.....He turned around to see who it was......

 Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. What was on Repa's 'to do' list today? Same thing as every day. Absolutely Nothing. But there had to be something she had in mind of doing...and there was, but first, she needed a certain friend to help her with this...task of hers. The first place to look for this certain friend...easy. Tifa Lockhart's bar, Seventh Heaven, that is where she would locate Cloud Strife, her friend and bike expert! He had taught her alot about bikes and this was part of what she had planned for today, so why not ask the best person she knew? Repa stood infront of seventh heaven, the air was cool and crisp as she stepped inside, the bell ringing some as an immediate smile tore across her face, she couldn't help it. She hadn't seen her friend in quite some time. So when he looked back at her, she smiled wide, and half skipped-half ran her way over to him hugging him with a giggle. "Heya Cloudy...How are you on this fine morning?" She said backing off some rocking back and fourth from heal to toe. "So i have a favor to ask...i mean...if you don't mind." She said trying to look all puppy eyed and innocent to sway his answer to a yes. What was Repa plotting now? |

"Heya Cloudy...How are you on this fine morning?" Yup Repa! Cloud was greeted with a forceful hug by his little friend from another world....Repa and Cloud have been friends for like a long time! And it was clearly easy to see why...Cloud always thought as Repa as the sister he never had....She was the perfect little sister to him. He even taught her how to ride a bike...."So i have a favor to ask...i mean...if you don't mind." Uh...Oh...That can't be good for Cloud's part....She wanted a favor.....Cloud saw her lean on her toes and just act all happily....He was used to it though. "Uh...Oh....Should I be worried? Heh....Yeah I've been good for a while.....But lately not so good....Still I'm here to help you in any way I possibly can....So tell me what's it that you want? Muffin? Coffee?" He pointed out the muffins he had laid out on a saucer for her and a fresh pot of coffee....He didn't know she knew what coffee was....Or that she had it on her home world....He's never been there...((Since this is new....Cloud's not been to her home world yet^^ XD))....And he also picked up to coffee cups and placed them on a table.....The bar was closed today so this was a good thing....No costumers bugging them.... But Repa knew she could get away with basically any thing with Cloud....So Cloud did not mind the hug...It was actually a warm welcome from her. And even Tifa knew he was hardly ever this close to any one....Cloud walked over to the table and sat down and gave the hand wave to come on over so she would not be on her feet the whole time...Yeah, Cloud knew how to treat the ladies....

Heh....Yeah I've been good for a while.....But lately not so good....Still I'm here to help you in any way I possibly can....So tell me what's it that you want? Muffin? Coffee?" Maybe Repa was laying it on a little thick. This was Cloud she was talking to, not her father, things would be easier here. So she toned it down some. Repa looked at the muffins and coffee that had been laid out. Tifa was a fantastic cook, why turn it down? "Sure why not." Repa said grabbing a muffin and taking a seat just as Cloud did. She was now starting to get a little concerned as Cloud had said that lately...he wasn't so good. It made her frown some. "Oh. Well I'm sorry to hear that Cloud...I hope things get better....Remember if you need me, im a call away!" She smiled wide trying to cheer things up before getting back to her initial subject. "Oh that, right. Well you taught me very well how to ride a motor bike and stuff...well I think it's time I got myself one, that way I dont have to walk everywhere..." Repa said picking away at the muffin she had. "If I'm going to get myself a bike...I need an expert with me to know what to get...so I don't make a mistake and get some crap machine..." She looked at Cloud and smiled some. "So...would you like to help me out here? Besides...we haven't gotten to hang out in awhile...and I wanna know whats been going on....maybe it'll cheer you up some eh?" Oh Repa...always bent on wanting to make everyone happy. |

Besides...we haven't gotten to hang out in awhile...and I wanna know whats been going on....maybe it'll cheer you up some eh?" Cloud scratched the back of his head to think on this a minute..... "When do we start?" That was actually the first line Cloud said when she wanted him to teach her how to ride a bike....It was true. Cloud hasn't seen Repa in a long time. This would be fun to hang out with her again. He remembered the last time....Was a blast. So this was gonna happen, she needed his bike skills to choose a great bike huh? Well, he would definitely not let her down with that.....This was what Tifa meant by have fun with life....So, Cloud was going to enjoy every minute......And yeah, Repa was right.....she could most of time cheer him up....So maybe he could open up to her. As he drank some of his coffee and took a bite of his muffin.....Man Tifa was a good cook.....He'd have to take some on the road..... "Expert huh? I like the sound of that....Lets finish this up and then be on our way.....I know the perfect bike shop....."

I like the sound of that....Lets finish this up and then be on our way.....I know the perfect bike shop....." Repa smiled wide as Cloud agreed to help her. Yes! This is what she wanted. Repa was still picking at the muffin she had taken a few minutes ago and sipped away at some coffee, she wasn't really a breakfast person but it was nice to have something before a project, even if it was just bike shopping. But this was also a bonding day for her and Cloud. Which was good, because now Repa was more then curious to what was going on with Cloud, if he didn't want to say what was up, then she wouldn't even bother asking. She'd just rather wait till he brought it up himself. Hopefully Cloud would Confide in her and fill her in on all that she had missed. Repa then decided to pick up the pace, she downed the rest of her cup of coffee and finished her muffin. "I will say, even though Im a girl and all, NO PINK bikes...i've seen them...and I hate them. Nothing Girly." Repa stated getting up from her seat almost feeling too anxious over all this. |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "OK, no pink bikes what so ever....I promise....And trust me we don't carry girly bikes...At least not where I got mine....Now come on.....Time's a wasting....We only have til....Til five til the bike shop closes....." This would be fun. Some time to hang out with Cloud and get herself a much needed vehicle for traveling around all these towns. Some of them were okay for walking, but others were just HUGE and walking wouldn't cut it. "This will be fun. I know it will." Repa said walking over and pushing the door open before leaning against it waiting for Cloud to walk out. "It gives us some time to catch up and talk. Exchange stories?" She laughed a bit, feeling overly excited. This was probably the first time in a long time she had gotten to do something with a friend that didn't involve fighting or any tension etc. Repa was still trying to think on what could be bothering Cloud. She'd ask eventually if something was wrong, but she didn't want to pry at him. Nothing could be so horrible for her to turn away from him. I mean look at her? She has a terrible gift yet Cloud didn't turn away from her, it was the least she could do. Be there for him as he was for her. He was like a big brother to her...in fact, it almost healed the hole in her heart from the death of her oldest Brother...almost, it was getting there. As of now, Cloud would be considered part of her family, if he ever needed anything...Repa would be there. "Sooo...How's life been? Tifa been doing good? I miss her cooking." |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "Um....I'd rather not talk about life just yet if you can understand....But yeah Tifa's fine. And she'll have to make you a meal next time you come in...." Okay, something was definitely wrong here. Something had to be bothering Cloud right now, and Repa knew deep down, whatever it was, she would be there for him. Did Cloud know that? No, maybe not. All she needed to remember was not to push. If it were her, she’d rather be left alone until the time was right. If she just kept quiet and what not, maybe Cloud would open up to her later, it was time for some patients. So Repa smiled and decided to play off the Tifa conversation here. “Maybe not a meal, Im good with just her cake. It’s fantastic! She must be like…the greatest cake baker ever. I swear, one day if I get married, I know who’s making my wedding cake.” Repa smiled trying to keep herself distracted from Cloud’s problems…the problems he wasn’t willing to share just yet, not that that bothered her…a lot. "Hop on..." Bikes, bikes, and more bikes. Repa did as told and hopped on the bike, ready to finally have one of her own, though she was still getting used to it really, it was just nice to have something so she could get around town that was small yet fast. “Alrighty Cloud! I’m excited! I can’t wait to have one of these for myself. I have you to thank for that…getting over my fear of bikes was all you and your…wonderful teaching skills.” She grinned from the back of the bike just excited, but that was Repa for you. Although, the back of her mind screamed at her to pry at Cloud, let him know whatever was going on that Repa would be there and all that other friendship crap, which really was true in her case, but again with the prying, it would get her no where with Cloud and she knew it. “Maybe after this whole bike shopping thing…we could go get something to eat?” There would be the chance to…talk. |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "Sounds good to me.....Alright hold on....The bike shop is not far from here....” Repa did as told and held on as they sped away towards this fantastic bike shop. Her mind was flying in two different directions, one, her future bike, what she wanted, what extras she wanted on it etc. The second way, was thinking of all the possible bad things to be happening to Cloud. It scared her. He wasn’t dying was he? That would really…be a downer. No, forget even thinking about that. Cloud would’ve told her something that serious right? Maybe not, she knew how Cloud was, opening up about things like that, wasn’t his specialty. So she kept her mouth shut and just waited to arrive to the bike shop. When they got there she hopped off and stared around. Wow. This certainly was the place to go, Cloud…was a lifesaver. "Ah....Cloud Strife....My best customer!" "Need some parts for the Fenrir?" "Not today Mike....I'm helping my friend here pick out the perfect bike....." "Ah....Well let's just look at the latest models....Miss....?" Repa smiled and waved at the man and glanced at Cloud as he nudged her shoulder. He really was like a brother to her, it was great. “Hello there, I’m Repa…the friend.” She said looking over at section of very shiny, very well equipped, and very…lovely looking bikes, those must be the latest models. “Alrighty! Im ready to have a bike of my own, bring on the bikes!” She said with a cheerful smile and attitude to match it. This would be fun…right? |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "O...K....Come along Miss. Repa....I'll show you the best models we have!" This was exciting. As long as Repa got something she liked, she was happy. And of course, she found a beautiful sleek black cycle, just for her. Not too girly, but not too manly, it was practically made for her. And so, knowing this was the one for her, she quickly took it, paid off everything and it was hers to do with whatever she pleased. It made her happy, that was one thing on her list accomplished…the next, was…more difficult than picking out a bike…talking to Cloud would be a challenge, at least with all there was to talk about. Repa looked around the lot until she walked into the lobby and saw Cloud, flipping through a magazine. A thought ran through her head as she stood in the doorway looking at her friend. Something was wrong, she’d have to get it out of him sometime, it was starting to drive her crazy. Soon enough she might even consider beating it out of him, not that she ever would really, but…her curiosity was skyrocketing right now. What could be wrong? That question subjected her mind to a million possibilities….or more. Cloud would tell Repa when he was ready to… “Hey…Everything’s paid off, signed and ready to go…” Repa said coming up behind Cloud putting on a small smile to seem a little happy right now, but truly, she was concerned for the well being of her friend. He was more important to her than some silly old bike…. |
