Cloud Strife   
Nightmares become real...
Love remains the same....
But soon everything will disappear....
All because of me....
Cloud couldn't hear her....He was some ways away from her by now....There was no way she was gonna catch up to him now. As he neared the cafe he reduced speed at once....He hoped she would be here soon. He was hungry. But he knew to wait on friends....He was not selfish or any thing like that...Although in his past he kinda was....The way he only thought about himself and what was wrong with him....Rather than taking others into consideration.....
Cloud checked his clock on his cell....And saw it was half past two....He had better leave a text to Tifa while he was waiting on Repa.....To just let her know where he was and all....He was better at that as well....And as soon as the message was sent....He closed his cell up and placed it in his pocket....He always let her know he loved her at the end of every text....He smiled thinking on what she had been doing today as well....Well, he kept his promise that was for sure.....He was having fun..... ((NP^^Mine's short to^^))

 Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. As Repa had pulled up shortly after Cloud, even with her cheating of using a portal and all, she still lost. As she parked her bike and hopped off she walked over to Cloud. “I didn’t mean a race right then and there.” She smirked a bit. “But you still won, next time it’ll be a fair race.” She grinned, knowing it probably wouldn’t be fair at all. Repa would try to pull some little stunt to get her to win first and Cloud and that speedy bike, well that just wasn’t fair to begin with. ”Since you won, I’ll buy lunch…seems only fair.” She shrugged noticing Cloud didn’t seem so bummed out now. That was good. “Off we go!” Repa called walking inside the small diner and taking a seat, in the exact same booth they sat in before. It wasn’t busy, but it wasn’t slow, hopefully today would turn out to be a good day after all. Even if Cloud did spill the beans about being a L’Cie, Repa had a right to know. “This place is so awesome…remember that first time we came here? You totally spit soda in my face.” It was a funny memory, of course at the time Repa didn’t think a guy like Cloud would have such an…epic reaction to her stating that she was a princess. A classis spit-take, that was the reaction, but that was okay. It was a good memory… |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. “Hey Cloud! Repa! Welcome back!" "Here ya go sweet heart....Lemme know when ya are ready to order huh?" Repa was somewhat amused by the waitress. As Repa sat in her seat she giggled a bit after the girl had left. “She really likes you.” Repa mused as she smiled smugly. “You should probably let her down easily, poor girl seems to hyperventilate anytime you’re around.” Not that it wasn’t entertaining for Repa, which it was, but this waitress was obviously head over heals for Cloud, as secretive as she tried to be, she failed miserably. "Yeah...I remember everything...Wait a minute...You're just trying to cheer me up aren't you? Repa.....You don't have to try so hard...Ya know that right?" Repa looked off to the side and rubbed the back of her head. “Friends try to cheer one another up. And…well I guess I have to try hard. I’m quite the over achiever when it comes to my friends.” She said looking back at Cloud with a more, confident smile. Hopefully her trying to cheer Cloud up helped some. “I know I don’t have to try, but…I want to. I’d much rather give everything I’ve got to keep a friend happy, then to see them miserable. Now is that so bad?” She had to ask, it always seemed that Cloud didn’t want anyone else to get involved, and that was probably because he didn’t want them getting hurt, but really, sometime he had to see that his friends…his family only did this because they loved him. Repa would give anything…anything to keep Cloud happy and safe. |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "Yeah...Should let her know soon...." "Yeah....Repa....Thanks. For everything." "It hurts like hell...." Repa just smiled some, until Cloud mentioned that his brand hurt. Her smile disappeared as quickly as it appeared. Oh well, good moment gone. What was she to say? ‘It’ll be okay’ ‘Oh I know how you feel’ ‘eh…’ There really was no good response to make right about now. She just looked down and off to the side trying to think any possible response through. Nothing came to mind, it seemed that lately, anytime she came across a tough situation, her mind would draw up blanks. Usually she was great at giving advice and motivational speeches or something like that, but today, nope. Except earlier after she and Cloud discussed the L’Cie thing. “I’m…sorry Cloud. I wish there was something I could do.” LAME and OH SO TYPICAL! Not only did that sound so Cliché, but it didn’t help anything she was sure of that. Maybe now was a good time to throw out her idea to Cloud? Maybe that’d cheer him up? Nah, better wait. "Um...Let's just order...Ok..." Repa nodded in response as the waitress came back over, all smiles once again as she kept her eyes locked on Cloud. Repa simply rolled her eyes at the girl, but the waitress probably didn’t notice, she was too busy day dreaming about Cloud. It was a little entertaining. An irritated look crossed Repa’s face as she folded her arms and slumped in her seat some. “What can I get for you Cloud?” The waitress asked still all smiley, how could someone smile that wide all the time? It looked painful. Repa just sat back in her chair and looked at Cloud, seeing what he was gonna order, well seeing as the girl didn’t even bother taking a glance at Repa. Whatever. |

Cloud Strife
Nightmares become real...
Love remains the same....
But soon everything will disappear....
All because of me....
“I’m…sorry Cloud. I wish there was something I could do.”
There was nothing she could do....She couldn't ease his pain...Not even Tifa could heal it....Not even Aerith....She could heal his wounds up and all but as for the pain he feels from his emotions and his brand making him sick almost every other week....Cloud was so not the same....You could just tell there was some thing wrong....His skin color was a bit paler than usual....Even his Mako blue eyes were not as blue as they once were......That could've been how Repa was let on how there was some thing wrong with him in the first place....He wasn't sure how she knew....But maybe it was that bond they shared just showed her....
Before he could reply....the waitress came back.....
“What can I get for you Cloud?”
"Uh....Just a beef sandwich and fries please....Oh and a Dr. Pepper....." This was it.....He had to tell the waitress that he was already spoken for......"Look...Wendi.....I thought I'd let you know....I'm spoken for....And she's not here....This is my....sister...." He would've said friend.....But they shared more than that..... [/color=teal]"I'm sorry....I should've told you sooner...You may know her....Tifa Lockhart....We're gonna get married.....But this doesn't mean we can't still be friends....I hope I don't upset you...."[/color] Cloud was trying his best to make painless for the waitress to know that he was with Tifa.....Tifa was the only one he could ever really feel those feelings for....And the waitress had better know Tifa.....For she was in their bar once.....And Tifa served her.....Cloud looked down....As he cut his eyes up at Repa hoping that Repa was taking note of the waitress expression.....[/size][/blockquote]

"Look...Wendi.....I thought I'd let you know....I'm spoken for....And she's not here....This is my....sister...." "I'm sorry....I should've told you sooner...You may know her....Tifa Lockhart....We're gonna get married.....But this doesn't mean we can't still be friends....I hope I don't upset you....” Well, Repa did say Cloud needed to let her down, she didn’t mean right now…in front of everyone. Though thankfully it wasn’t jam packed in this place today. Repa just sat there, her arms folded across her stomach more so and she still remained slumped in her seat, her head looking down, but her eyes up and glancing from Cloud, to the waitress. She noticed the difficulty Cloud was trying to avoid, and the inner pain this girl must be feeling. Repa knew that feeling somewhat, she’d gone through years of rejection during school and what not and she could just relate, though she couldn’t say a word really, interrupting this, would be a horrible thing to do. This girl needed to know the truth, and now. As Cloud finished up Repa kept her eyes on the girl for a few moments, watching it all sink in. It seemed to hit her slowly and she tried to keep a cool facial expression. But Repa was REALLY good at reading people, she’d watched over her kingdom and its people for so long, she just got good at something like this, reading them all like pages from a book. This girl wasn’t too happy, not angry, but…not understanding really. After a few moments of looking at the girl Repa had to look away, bad memories of her own rejections flooded her mind and she cut her eyes back to Cloud, who seemed to be looking at her for some reason. Why? Was he waiting for her to say something…because Repa sure didn’t know what to say. “A-and for you?” The waitress said looking at Repa, her eyes a little watery. Repa knew what was going to happen next. The waitress would probably run into the back and cry or something, but that was life. Nothing was perfect. “I’ll…just have a Dr. Pepper…that’s all.” She said not so hungry anymore as she looked back at Cloud. The waitress nodded and rushed off to the back to ring in the order…and to bawl. “I think she took it rather well.” Hopefully Cloud wasn’t as good at reading people, especially girls as well as Repa was. |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "I...don't think she too it well at all. I'm not good with this sorta thing. I guess I should've just kept my mouth shut....Huh? Well, she had to know. I could've just brought Tifa in and maybe that would've been a hint to her. Man...what else could go wrong today?" What could Repa say now? She really didn’t know, just anything to cheer Cloud up and try to get his mind off things. After Cloud spoke Repa quickly took her fist and knocked on the wood table they sat at, she didn’t want to jinx anything here. “Knock on wood!” She said after she tapped the wood. “Believe me Cloud…much worse could happen…don’t wanna tempt fate…” Repa shrugged some placing her hands in her lap as she looked back towards the kitchen where the waitress had exited. “Honestly, I’m a girl, I really think she took it rather well…you guys always seem to think that if we are quite we’re mad or something…I just don’t get it.” It seemed she was trying to draw the subject away to something else. With a slight shrug to herself Repa sat quietly as the waitress came back, no puffy eyes or any signs of tears, she actually looked quite…collected. She brought the drinks and food out and smiled as she walked off after a brief ‘enjoy your meal’ came out. Repa just blinked a few times before turning her gaze back to Cloud. “See…told you so.” She said with a grin as is quickly spread across her face. Now that that was taken care of, Repa felt a whole lot better, maybe that could cheer Cloud up some…what else was there to do to make his day better? Repa didn’t have the slightest idea, so instead of talking she grabbed her soda and just sipped ever few seconds of silence and gave off the appearance of deep in thought…which she really was. “What’cha wanna do after this? I mean…there’s still a lot of day time left and…I really don’t wanna lock myself up for the night.” She said just holding onto her soda as she let her eyes wander some. Conversation…it was hard to come up with a subject now and days that wasn’t absolutely horrible, maybe…something a little lighter on topic? “So you and Tifa are getting married I hear…Congratulations…I never really got to congratulate you…” |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "Lucky for you, I'm not like most guys....I can see through those eyes of yours....I know when you're mad....But...thank goodness you're not....Cause I would be in a sticky situation if you were...." "Yeah...." Repa smiled and laughed a bit, amused with Cloud right about now. “Oh believe me, if I was mad…you would have to know me to see that. I’m not very good at hiding any sort of frustration or anger…” She shrugged a bit sheepishly glad they got onto a better side subject. Hopefully Cloud was getting his mind off the L’Cie thing, if not, Repa was going to have to step it up some and do better on this whole ‘cheering up’ thing. "Hmm....Not much to do around town....You like music right? They just put up a new music store not far from here since you've been gone....We can go check out the latest music or what ever you wanna do is fine with me....I was actually thinking of scouting out a place for when my time comes....I'll be sure to be there.....I thought about the Great Glacier would be a good place....But...I'm not sure...." Repa nodded in response to the music question. Whoever didn’t like music at all was just plain weird. Hanging around a music store would be fun, maybe she’d find something interesting to buy? A new band to check out? Who knew, all she wanted to do was stay out of her place and enjoy the day. “How about we check out the music store? It sounds like fun.” Anything to avoid the topic of L’Cie, absolutely anything. “I haven’t gotten any new music lately, been super busy to even check out stuff on the radio…maybe I’ll find something I like…you too.” She said letting her eyes wander, wondering what else she could say. She was starting to run dry on what to say, her mind was only drawing up blanks on any ideas that weren’t completely lame or obvious. "You heard? Uh...thanks....I hope we get to get married before......?" Maybe bringing up Tifa and Cloud’s wedding wasn’t a good idea. It was nice thought before the words actually came out. It just brought back up a horrible subject. Get married before Cloud either goes Cei’th, Dies, or turns to crystal. What lovely options. That was a mistake that Repa immediately regretted, it was a big mess-up. Especially after all the hard work she had been pouring out to try and cheer Cloud up. What a waste. |

Princess at HeartYeah I'm a Princess...but I'm no Damsel in Distress...Far from it. "Hey....Don't worry about....I'm gonna marry her....One way or another....I almost have the church in the Slums finished for the ceremony....So....that's a plus....The guys I hired have been working really hard to bring it back to life....And they will get paid handsomely.....By yours truly; Strife Deliveries....And you are so invited....But I won't make you wear any dress if you don't want to....I'm sure Tifa won't either....Zack's gonna be best man....And Aerith maid of honor.....It's gonna be great....." Repa smiled, it was a better subject to move onto. A wedding for two people who sure deserved it. It sounded wonderful. “Well if you ever need any…financial help, you know who to run to.” Repa grinned as she was happy to hear she was invited, she assumed so but hearing it from the groom himself was even better than a lousy self assumption. “I’ll be there, don’t worry about that. Just you wait, ill be taking photos at the reception and ill totally scrapbook it for ya if you want.” It could’ve been sarcastic, but it was a good idea. Repa loved to take photos and look at them every now and then, just to remember ‘the good ol’ days’ and stuff. It would probably be a nice idea for a late wedding gift to the happy couple or something. "Women...." With a sigh and that comment, Repa just turned her expression into mock horror and smacked Cloud’s arm lightly. “Hey! I totally resent that! Not all women are bad and confusing! You men just don’t pay enough attention.” She said proudly curling her hands into fists and putting her fists against her hips. “If we women weren’t as…incognito with our feelings as we are…then nothing would ever happen.” Okay now she was getting a little too into her defense on women, plus herself. Though it was something she could relate to. “We women are amazing and you know it. I mean, look at all Tifa does…she’s pretty great. Admit it, girls make the world go round.” She grinned nudging her elbow on his arm playfully with her joke of girls being a ‘superior race’. This was the kind of fun she liked to have with Cloud. Stuff where there wasn’t any stress behind it…that wouldn’t last long so she tried to make the most of it. |
