A/N-Hey guys! This is my first real attempt at writing fanfiction so go easy on me. I decided that since there are hardly any fics of my favorite couple then I'm going to make my own! Any suggestions will be awesome!
Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts. My cat's name is Cloud though and I own him!
Chapter 1
The ability to breathe left him the moment he laid eyes on her. She walked with an air of confidence unlike any other woman that he had ever known. It was as if she had no care as to whether her clothes were fashionable or if her hair was shiny. Despite these facts, she was no doubt a flawless beauty. Her dark brown hair was cut short and was slightly tousled from the brisk wind in the cool autumn weather. She was athletically slim, not like the girls who starve themselves to look like a supermodel, but the kind of slim that comes with having an overabundance of energy and a physical hobby. The most stunning part of her, however, was her eyes. She had stormy gray eyes that he knew could show emotion fiercer than the most violent storm.
"Cloud," his friend Squall Leonheart said to the previously stunned man. He and Squall, or Leon as he liked to be called, have been friends for a few months. Leon invited Cloud over to his house to study for an upcoming test in Anatomy. Sitting at the kitchen table they we interrupted by the young girl that had caused Cloud's heart to beat at an irregular and rapid pace. "I want you to meet my little sister, Yuffie," Leon said gesturing to the beauty.
"Hi," Yuffie said with a slight wave on her way to the fridge. She pulled out a pint of ice cream and a clean spoon from the sink. Sitting down at the table with the two boys she turned to Cloud and asked, "So, you go to school with Squall?"
"Leon," came a frustrated comment from brunet man.
"Yeah," Cloud said swallowing the rather large lump that had formed in his throat. "I'm in his Anatomy class."
Yuffie smiled brightly. "How unfortunate for you," she replied.
"Yeah it is kind of boring," Cloud said smiling slightly.
"I meant being in a class with my brother," She said seriously. Cloud tried to hold back his laughter but failed miserably. He looked over to Leon to see him glare menacingly at his younger sibling. She looked over at him with a confident smile that clearly mocked him.
"I'm going to the bathroom," Leon stated as he got up, his glare never leaving Yuffie until he left the kitchen.
Cloud looked at Yuffie as she watched her brother leave. She really was stunning, particularly when her eyes were filled with humor as they were now. He searched his brain for a conversation starter but he found that his mind was completely blank.
Yuffie looked back to Cloud once Leon was out of sight.
"So, what is a cutie like you doing hanging out with a guy like my brother?" Yuffie said leaning back in her chair and taking a scoop of her ice cream. She looked expectantly at Cloud as she waited for her answer.
Cloud's eyes widened at the 'cutie' comment and he looked away from Yuffie as the blood rushed to his face in a very un-Cloud like blush. He looked back to her when his blush receded slightly and found an amused smile was on her face.
"You're kind of shy aren't you?" she said giggling. He looked at her and smiled shyly not knowing what to say. He found it was hard to stare into her eyes for long, it felt as if she could read his mind and he really didn't want her to know his thoughts, particularly of her.
"I uh…" Cloud didn't know what to say as he scratched his head. He looked back to Yuffie, she was smiling at him as she ate her ice cream. He smiled back at her and nodded.
"Don't worry about it, shy can be cute," she said to him, the smile never leaving her face. She picked up Leon's textbook and looked at what they were studying. "The skull, that sucks," she said looking back at Cloud, "You have to memorize every little crack and hole in the skull, I used to think that it was all individual but apparently every little hole has a name."
Cloud nodded, "It is kind of daunting," he said sighing. At that moment, Leon decided to return.
"Why are you still here bothering Cloud?" Leon said as he took as seat. Yuffie responded by sticking her tongue out at him. Leon turned to Cloud, "Hey, why don't we take a break and go get some food?"
Cloud nodded his approval and looked over to Yuffie, "Do you want to come with us?" he asked with the hope of spending more time with her. Yuffie opened her mouth to reply when the doorbell rang, Yuffie immediately smiled brightly went to get the door.
When she came back in to the kitchen, she was followed by a silver haired boy around her age. His hair was long and his bangs covered his aquamarine colored eyes. He nodded to Leon.
"I'm going to go change real quick," Yuffie said to the silver haired boy, "Wait here." She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. The boy nodded and took a seat at the table.
"I hope you don't mind me taking her out tonight Leon, I promise we wont be out to late," he said.
"That's fine Riku," Leon said to him without taking his eyes off his textbook.
To say that Cloud was shocked would be the understatement of the year. His mouth hung slightly open as his brain attempted to analyze the information. This kid must be Yuffie's boyfriend. His chest felt tight, almost to the point that he couldn't breathe. He had never felt as draw to a person as he was to Yuffie. He has many girls that would love to be with him but he wanted Yuffie more than all of them combined. She was amazing. He heard her footsteps as she came back down the stairs dressed in short shorts and a black corset like top. He almost gasped aloud at how captivating her body was when it wasn't covered in her modest school uniform. Riku stood up and headed over to her. He wrapped his arms around her and lightly touched his lips to hers in a chaste kiss.
"Ready?" He asked and she nodded to him. Yuffie turned to her brother.
"By Squallie, don't wait up," She said and turned to Cloud, "It was nice meeting you Cloud, I hope my brother doesn't drive you crazy," she said as she walked to the door hand in hand with Riku.
'I really don't think your brother is the one who is going to drive me crazy,' Cloud thought to himself as she walked away with her boyfriend.
A/N- Yeah so that's my first chapter. Review and tell me what you think. Right now it sounds like a cute little fluffy romance story but it's really not going to be anything like that, there will be major angst and the rating WILL go up. Well, review or it won't because I won't update! Lol, just kidding, but still review.
