*might want to play this song while reading the story :D*

"Zack…?"
"Aerith… you shouldn't be here." Pain rang through his voice as his words left his mouth.
-
Hitomi no oku ga boyake te mie nai
kokoro no soko no kimochi wa aru no ?

"What are you saying?"
"…"
"No…" Aerith saw her hands flickering. She raised it up. "What is this?" She felt her tears welling up. "Zack, what's happening?"
Zack turned his head away. "Go back to them."
Aerith was too surprised to utter a word, her eyes widened in shock as she saw her skin growing pale like she was disappearing.
He stood up. "You shouldn't have died…"
Aerith's eyes widened. "I, no…" She stood up. "No, no, no… I want to stay here. I don't want to go anywhere." She felt her tears fall.

"You can't, you should go back." Zack turned his back on her and started to walk. Then he stopped, feeling her tug on his shirt from behind, the light now reaching up on her arm. She leaned her head against his back. He felt her shaking.
"You said you won't… leave me again." Her grip grew tighter, sobbing. "Please don't do this." She slowly held unto him. "Zack…" She cried as she hugged him.

Why kodoku na sora wo miageru no ?
Why waratte mise te yo
kotoba ni suru no ga heta na
anata no seikaku wakaru kara

"No…" She saw the light reaching her shoulders now, she gripped tighter. "Please don't…"
Zack looked away, controlling his own emotions. He clenched his fists.
"Don't leave me…" She already felt helpless. Her legs were already flickering now. "I'm scared… I'm so scared…"
Zack's eyes widened. He clenched his fists even more, his knuckles turning white.
"Zack-"
It took him some seconds of control before he suddenly faced her and embraced her tightly, like how she'd just hugged him. "I'll… I'll be watching you from here. I'll always be with you. So don't worry." He whispered.
He pulled away and wiped her tears, her neck now flickering and glowing now. Seeing her disappearing made him cringe. He held her closely. "I'll always be here."

tooi mukashi ni nani ga atta no ?
shisen wo sorasu anata no hitomi ni

Aerith looked up at him. "I… don't want to go…" She held unto his top. "I want to stay here. Don't make me leave…"
He rubbed her cheeks with his thumb. He smiled his heart-melting smile. "Now, is not your time. You should continue to live. I… I don't want you to die yet."
"I…" She felt the glow creeping to her face now. Her tears kept falling now. "…really really love you-"
She was cut off as Zack kissed her again. It was soft but she felt more zeal, as if he felt what she felt. Longing, sadness. She would miss this. His hands wound up to her face and hair.

hitori de samishii yoru ni dakishime rareru

"Live, for me, alright?" He whispered through their kiss. "Always be careful there."
She couldn't answer him, sobs just keep on getting stuck on her throat, more tears came. "Mm-hmmm." She tried to nod but she was still shaking.
"I…" He looked deep into her eyes. She cherished the moment to memorize him. Remember these eyes. His soft lips kissed away her tears.
"…love you too." He whispered claiming her lips again, kissing her again. "Aerith."
She felt him hold unto her tightly, like he didn't really want her to go. His kiss also said that. It was so compelling, so overwhelming.

Why doushite katachi ni kodawaru no ?
Why kokoro wo hirai te
ookina nimotsu wo seotta
anata wo ukeire rareru chikara
aru wa shinji te mi te ?
Ohh..Yeaahh
-
Aerith closed her eyes and savored this kiss. She felt one last tear creep from the side of her eye.
This can't be happening, she didn't want to go.
And before they knew it, she was gone from his side.
Zack opened his eyes in surprise, arms dropping down. He held out his hand- looking at the empty space beside him, closing it before he looked up at the vast sky. He took in the pain he felt.
"Take care… Aerith."

"Aerith, Aerith! Wake up, Aerith!"
Aerith felt her eyes open. Blurred images appeared before her, she squeezed her eyes before opening them again. She saw a patch of blonde appear.
"Aerith?"
"C-Cloud…"
"Are you okay?"
Aerith looked up at him and the others, worried faces all over them. She reached up to touch her face. Flood of her tears were what she felt. She quickly wiped them away but they just keep coming back.
She looked at Cloud, her eyes widened. "Cloud… I s-saw him… Zack…Zack…I," Her tears were back again. "I-I saw him… He was there…" She swallowed back her tears.
"He-…" She broke off, crying.
"Aerith…" Cloud reached out to her, pulling her close to him.
"I…" She couldn't form the right words anymore as she continued crying.
"It's alright…" Cloud patted her head; pain also flickered in his face as he looked up in the sky. 'Zack,'
He looked at the girl in his arms. He gently stroked her hair, calming her. 'Don't worry, Zack…'
'…I'll take care of her.'

"Aerith! No!"
-
'Before I knew it, everything went black. The piercing pain that I suddenly felt a while ago was gone in an instant. And after all the long years I have waited for have passed, I felt… light again. I'm back.'
"I'm back."
-
"Zack, can you hear me now?"
"Hey,"
A pair of arms held out to her that seized her in a tight hug.
"Welcome home."
She smiled as she felt his hands tilt her head up and she savored the taste of his feather-like kiss.
"Mm-hhmm. I'm home."
