"Cloud"
"I love you too"
Cloud gave her a warm smile....He just had realized that his wounds were gone.....The medical team were puzzled. As some scratched their heads wondering what was going on...This man was pronounce dead today....And yet here he was alive and well.....
"I love you so much....I couldn't leave you here. A lone...." Cloud didn't want to say any thing around Shinra members....Even though the Shinra's HQ had indeed fallen, Rufus and the others retreated to the Healin Lodge.....The Turks were still around and some Soldiers.....Like those that helped with this break out today.....
Cloud had to try and sit up.....So he did...Remarkably.....He was healed....As he leaned up and finally stood up....
"Sir....You're....alright?" The 2nd Class Soldier asked....
Cloud checked himself carefully.....Yup he was alright....
"It's ok....I'm fine....Tifa let's go...." Cloud grabbed her hand in his.....

"Thank you..." Tifa said smiling. She was scared of losing him but now she just smiled warmly at Cloud. Tifa didn't care how but he was back and alive. Now they also opened up to each other and let their feelings out.
Things would be easier from now on she thought and they would be together. Tifa let go of Cloud and got up before taking his hand and nodded. She couldn't wait to get back home.

"Thank you..."
Cloud looked up at her....
"For what?"
He asked her....But another Soldier came over and gave him his bike keys....Cloud held Tifa's hand tightly....He was scared that he would loose her again....And that was not going to happen.....Not now....
"Come on Tifa let's get out of here huh...?"
He wanted to be a lone with her.......

"This you gave me what I have always wanted" Tifa answered. She wanted to ask Cloud how he was able to come back and what happened but she thought it would be best not to say anything in front of the Soldiers and just wait till they were back home.
Tifa nodded as she walked out of the building with Cloud and walked over to his bike with him. There were a lot of things she wanted to say and now she was no longer afraid. Now that she knew that he shared her feelings. "Where are going?" Tifa asked as she sat in the back of the bike and waited for Cloud.

"This you gave me what I have always wanted"
"Where are going?"
Cloud smiled....He was now happier than he ever has been....Now that she was really his....And he knew for a fact that this was no dream....This was the real deal.....
"Back home....Hope you're up to a long ride...."
Cloud wanted to be at that special spot they shared as they were kids....To be able to go back there and know what she was really feeling made him want to just go home.....

"Back home" Tifa repeated. She too wanted to go back there and smiled with a nod at Cloud. "Alright lets go" she said holding on to him once he got on so she wouldn't fall.
"You know I was always so scared to tell you how I felt. I was scared of losing you if I did... that's why I never told you what I felt. I know it took us both long enough but now lets try and build a future together." Tifa smiled even brighter now as she looked at Cloud. Finally her dream came true and this was real she knew it.

Cloud listened to everything that she said to him...It was all true. They had a new life ahead of them....It was going to be alot better....Now that they were together......
"It's ok Tifa....We're together now.....Every thing'll be fine....."
Cloud drove with speed....He wanted to go home again....Despite what was going on....He was ready for this to happen....He was actually happy...For the first time in a long time, he was happy....
It was sun down as they entered their little village.....It looked the same as Cloud left it....Not much had changed....Well the woods were grown more now....But that was it....Cloud got off his bike and reached his hand out for her to take....He smiled....But then he felt some thing....or some one....."Zack....Please tell me you didn't...." But he said that in his mind....He didn't know if it was true or not.....But he could feel that his friend might have walked out of the Life Stream....He was safer there....At least that's what Cloud thought.....But if Cloud saw him....He would be happy and dissappointed at the same time.....

Tifa smiled as they entered their hometown. Good and bad memories flew into her mind but she ignored them turning to Cloud. "Your right" She said taking his hand and getting off the bike. Tifa saw the look in Clouds eyes and knew something was up. "Was is it?" She asked taking a step closer.
Now that they were alone was also a good time to ask him how he came back to life without anyone listening in on their conversation. But maybe she should wait till they climbed up the mountain which was where she thought Cloud wanted to go.

"Your right"
"Was is it?"
Cloud looked up as she asked that.....
"I....have to tell you how I came back....I should be dead now....But I'm not....Tifa....The Life Stream....It's been disturbed....I saw my mother.....That was one reason I wanted to come back here.....But...then I just saw an image of Zack in my mind...All I can think about is him.....Is he back? I hope not....He doesn't need to be in the middle of all of this....With Shinra falling....And other rebels attacking Midgar....We need some one to rule it....But....I...Tifa...He just can't come back....Aerith....All of them....All of our friends...That have passed on....Honestly...They are safer in the Life Stream....Tifa....We might have some trouble to straighten out before we can worry about our future. Are you sure that you want this....? That you want to be with me?"

"The lifestream but how...?" Tifa paused to think for a minute. Her mind wandered to the past and everything the worlds have been through. "Wait do you think that this has something to do with the worlds being connected?"
Then that thought came to her mind and made her tremble as she recalled him could he be back. "Cloud if you can come back to life do you think that Sephiroth is also..." She didn't want to say it Tifa didn't want it to be true.
She closed her eyes to calm down taking a deep breath and nodding at his question. "Yes Cloud this is one thing I am sure of"

"The lifestream but how...?
"Wait do you think that this has something to do with the worlds being connected?"
"It's possible....."
"Cloud if you can come back to life do you think that Sephiroth is also..."
"Is this the pain you felt before.....Cloud....?
That memory never leaves Cloud...Cloud looked down the minute she asked that....He still has not told her what Sephiroth did to him on that roof top......And that Zack was the reason....That Cloud was able to destroy Sephiroth again....He was ashamed.....That she would not see him as a true hero if he told her everything.....That Zack was his safety net.....Which was one way to describe it.....
"I hope not...." He replied....Holding the spot Sephiroth's sword pushed through in his body......But there was no sign of a scar on that spot either.....
"Yes Cloud this is one thing I am sure of"
He was happy then that she said that....She was willing to be placed in danger to just be with him.....Even of Sephiroth did come back......Cloud leaned closer to her.....
I...I dream about you alot......" He admitted.....

Tifa held her hands together just to stop them from shaking. Just the thought of Sephiroth coming back really scared her. She sighed turning to look at Cloud and smiled once he said he dreamed about her.
"Really? Well that makes both of us. Like today" Tifa closed her eyes and smiled again once she remembered the dream. Now it finally came true and she could stop dreaming and start living her life. "Say Cloud want to make those dreams come true?" Tifa asked as she took another step closer.

Cloud smiled....She's been dreaming about him huh? Well, that makes him wonder......Like, what has she dreamed....?
"Say Cloud want to make those dreams come true?"
"Alright.....But let's get to that cliff......I want to really show you my love there.....If you can wait a few more minutes..." He hoped that she was going to want to wait.....Cloud wanted her just as bad.....But the way things were going......Cloud grabbed her hand and started to walk up that trail.....He remembered exactly how to get there......

Tifa smiled with a nod as she grabbed his hand and started to walk with Cloud. She couldn’t wait to see what he had planned. Things were finally looking up for both of them and Tifa would fight and do everything to stay by Cloud’s side.
After several minutes of climbing they finally made it to the top. Tifa let go of Cloud’s hand to look around the place and let the memories flow through her mind. "This place holds a lot of memories… we both spend most of our childhood here."

"This place holds a lot of memories… we both spend most of our childhood here."
Cloud agreed....as they finally made it to the top of the cliff....He was glad to be here....This is where he wanted to give her that first kiss....
"Tifa......You know you're my best friend right....? I don't want any thing to even come between us.....I love you....."
He was right next to her.....So close that their forehead could touch each others if they wanted.....He was ready to take first step.....As he grabbed her hand and placed them on his chest....And he started to lean into her.....He was going to kiss her....He was nervous of course....But he was also glad that she was going to be first one he would ever and only hopefully kiss in his life time.....He was shaking slightly in his own boots.....But he knew she would not turn away from him.....
