Kadaj: "Reviews better get to at least 50!!!! Or Cloud gets it!"


Cloud: "Please...Oh God please....no!"


Kadaj: Laughs evilly and starts shoving chocolate into Cloud's mouth.


Cloud: "No....Sephy doesn't like... fat......" Whines and gets cut off by the chocolate in his mouth.


Kadaj: "You're a baby! Well that's up to your public to decide if they like your story or not...still I get to keep you." Pauses as someone taps his shoulder.


Cloud: "I am not..." Then pauses as well, more chocolate is stuffed into his mouth.


Me: "That’s pretty big talk for a bad guy…don’t you know they never win?" Looks at Kadaj. Cloud seems pleased but can't talk.


Kadaj: "What? NO...." Sighs. " ....Damn it....I never get to stay bad for long or win."


Me: "Well I can still be bribed....but not now I need to write...."


Kadaj: " Damn..." Sighs " Sephiroth!!!! " Runs off to find the big guy for support!


Me: Laughs


Cloud: " ... " Can't talk, there's to much chocolate in his mouth.

Part two (Festival)

Cloud slowly walked forward, the music and noise of the crowd steadily growing louder. He took a deep breath and could smell something wonderful. It smelled sweet and fruity and his stomach lurched with hunger in response. Sighing Cloud knew he had no money. He paused and looked up at the sky as if he hoped it would drop money for him.


"Reno? It's not possible to give me some money to eat is it?" He asked.


Nothing....


Sighing Cloud moved on. "Figures..." he grumbled. Then he gasped as he felt a whoosh of air behind. Cloud turned and was surprised to see Reno standing there. He gave him a questioning gaze.


"You know there are a lot of things I can do...but if I could give money away so carelessly...then there would be no reason for us to exist much longer...everyone would be happy yo?" Reno said shrugging.


Cloud looked down. " Yeah I know...it's just that...that I was...hungry is all."


Reno stepped forward and turned the boy back around giving him a shove towards the music and festivities. "Well maybe you'll get lucky..." He said and then he was gone. Vanished from sight, Reno smirked. Sure he could have easily given the boy money but then...how would the lovely Prince be able to spoil the blonde. Moving away from Cloud he next decided it was time to alert the Prince of his Fairy Child's presence.


Cloud stumbled forward a bit and shook his head. He wasn't that hopeful for much now a days, but he did wonder about that comment. Residing to the fact that he would have to smell the food rather then eat it, he proceeded onwards. Even as he seemed to fit perfectly into the crowd, he was still very wary of one thing.... his brothers were supposed to be here and that...that could be trouble if he were caught. He only hoped that he had time to enjoy the festival before, if anything at all, happened with an encounter as such.


Leaving the ally Cloud smiled in surprise at all the brightly colored lights that were strung between the buildings and encircling the town festival center. They were beautiful and were glowing warmly, casting a soft light over the area. It was breathtaking and it felt warm and inviting. Cloud instantly forgot his hunger at the sight and found himself just enjoying the little bit of freedom he had. He knew it would be fleeting. He looked around, taking in the pleasant view. In the center before him was a small crowd dancing to the band playing before them, and wrapped around the area, in a circle, were booths filled with food, games, and other items to buy. It was clear the festival had everything and anything to fit anyone's fancy. Smiling, Cloud ventured further in and started walking past several booths taking in the sights and smells that were around him. For a moment he became lost in the feelings around him and forgot the troubles of his mind, it felt good to walk freely around and being dressed up like everyone else helped keep his privacy…he hoped.


He did not notice the tall man only several feet away from him, his back turned, dressed in all black with hints of sparkling silver...but someone else noticed. The red head laughed and flew past Cloud. "Gonna be great yo!" He snickered to himself. Cloud would be unaware of his God Friend’s presences.


Cloud paused at the next booth and stared down at the elaborate line up of small figurines. He noted the white opal one and remembered the one he broke. He wasn't aware that the booth owner saw him and was hastily wondering over towards him.


"Can I help you with anything.... would you like to see one?" He asked kindly.


Cloud jerked back to attention and quickly looked up at the man. He momentarily lost his breath and received an odd look in return. Then finally Cloud cleared his throat and shook his head. " Oh no...I just got here, I want to look around for a bit...thank you." He said softly and then with a polite nod he turned and headed on. For a while he wondered away from the booths...he didn't have any money anyways so it was pointless to merely enjoy looking at them when he knew he would continually be asked if he wanted, desired, or needed anything. He would have loved to have been able to buy the berry gobbler he smelled as he passed one of the booths, but he had to forget that quickly…the money thing was sure getting to be a problem. Sighing, Cloud walked over and listened to the band for a while...at least that didn't cost anything. After a few minutes the music started to flood through his body and slowly he began swaying along in motion with the delightful tune.


Behind Cloud, Reno hovered close to the Prince and watched with careful eyes as he dipped his lips down close to the man's ears. Like an enchanting whisper he spoke to the man. "Dancing...that sounds fun right?" He said softly. This caused Sephiroth to instantly look up suddenly as if coming to the very idea himself. Looking towards Zack, who was seated at a nearby booth eating a chicken leg, he reached over and tapped his shoulder.


" I am going to go over there...stay and eat...I'll be back." he said calmly, pointing in the direction of the small crowd, dancing around the band. He wouldn’t be back for a while. Zack looked up and with a mouthful of food nodded.


"Hhooky Sephhhothsss." He said with barely audible words. Sephiroth managed a small chuckle as he turned away from Zack and slowly walked over towards the crowd. He stopped right next to the swaying Cloud unknowingly.


Reno gave himself a hardy pat on the back and then vanished from the festival...the rest he knew would play out on it's own. He didn't want to be that nosey...though the thought had crossed his mind. He snickered to himself and then laughed, the wind carrying a shallow soft laughter with it as he left.


Sephiroth stood relaxed at the edge of the crowd, up until he noticed the boy next to him. Glancing out of the corner of his eyes he found the slight swaying movement of him comforting, he didn’t know why, but it was. With nothing more then half grin he fully turned his head to the boy and spoke to him.


“Pleasant is it not?” He asked, his tone effortlessly smooth. This caused Cloud to jump and he immediately came back from where ever his head was at the moment…lost in the music. He paused and looked to his right.


“I am sorry?” He said sounding very apologetic at the fact that someone had spoken to him, had he done something wrong? He froze at the sight of who was standing next to him and his mind swirled with the distant memories that reflected in his head of the man. “Sephiroth?” He said suddenly forgetting his manners and speaking outright. He immediately regretted this once the face of the Prince before him seemed to harden at the abrupt words…addressing him in such an informal manner…how could he…he wasn’t thinking.


Sephiroth frowned and couldn’t hide his disgust at such an informal greeting. He was just about to say something when an electric rapid thought ran through his mind. He stared at the boy…his height….lips….those eyes…deep blue and bright staring back at him through the white mask…but the hair…blonde and spiky. ‘Could it be?” He thought, nearly losing his own breath at the thought. Before him Cloud instinctively backed up, worry smeared across his face so intensely that he appeared to be nearly sickened by it.


“I…I…” He tried to say.


Sephiroth’s eyes widened, the boy…so sweet…so pure…and even lovelier at his submissiveness and how he was so unsure of himself. It wasn’t what he liked in him but it was darling that he acted as such. He could almost hear that same tone uttered near the brink of passion, begging for release. He shook his head clearing the thought and lifted an arm to reach for the boy. He felt him jump at his touch. “Cloud…” Sephiroth said softly, and when the boy said nothing it confirmed that he was right about whom it was. His voice was so low that only Cloud would be able to hear it. With ease he lifted his finger and trailed it up along the boy’s chest and then up along his jaw line before stopping just under the edge the mask. He slipped his finger underneath it and pulled it off, letting it drop on the floor behind the blonde. Sephiroth gasped. It was him…it was him! He was astonished. He hadn’t expected this but was pleasantly surprised by it. “Cloud…” He said again softly.


Cloud shook at the touch but not because he didn’t want it…but because it was his touch…a man of his status shouldn’t be touching him and it bothered him. His heart stopped when his mask was removed and he met the Prince face to face once again. He honestly didn’t know what to say. Before he could utter a word even one word, his stomach did three flips and then growled loudly…so loudly that is was heard over the music, at least between them two. His cheeks instantly flushed and he gave the Prince another apologetic look. He didn’t know why he wasn’t trying to get away… to move away… why he didn’t worry about who saw him or why he was with him. Something about being this close to the man was comforting and somehow he knew that it shouldn’t be…he wasn’t worthy of that. He wasn’t even worthy of being addressed by the man, yet now two days in a row the Prince had found him and had been pleased by it. This confused Cloud, but still he didn’t move away from the Prince. The only nerves he felt were because of his exposed face and thus he kept his head down hoping to hide it from anyone who might recognize him. He wasn’t trying to be submissive but it was all he could do to try and hide his face. For a moment Sephiroth’s eyes appeared worried, but the fact that Cloud was near him only eased those feelings from him, not to mention the noticeable noise coming from the blonde’s stomach.


Sephiroth smiled at the obvious hunger in his angel and he stepped forward. Slipped his arm around the boy’s shoulders, he moved towards a booth, guiding him along. “Why don’t we get something to eat…in private…” He said, walking without taking his eyes off Cloud. He was pleasantly surprised when the blonde nodded and didn’t break away from him.


Several moments later he and Cloud were seated in the back of one of the restaurants that surrounded the festival. Two salads and bread were placed before them. At first only Cloud ate, and rather quickly. He ate in such haste, as if he hadn’t eaten in weeks, forgetting his manners again at the moment. Sephiroth watched with amused eyes, he barely touched his food. He didn’t even mind that Cloud appeared to eat like a starving poor child, it didn’t matter he was just happy…no, more then happy, that he was with him. He had mentally made plans for them later and he hoped that Cloud would agree to them. “Is it good?”


Cloud nodded. “Yes thank you…” He said a little to quickly and grabbed for a piece of bread.


“I am pleased.” Sephiroth said leaning forward upon his hand to watch Cloud.


They ate and talked for the rest of the meal. Cloud had never had such a feast. To start with the salad was fresh and unbelievably tasty, then they had had roast beef with mashed potatoes and grilled veggies, that was also delicious. Lastly they had had a semi sweet chocolate mouse with whipped cream, chocolate and caramel sauce and then topped with not one, but three cherries. Cloud was so stuffed by the end he thought for sure he would burst. After the food settled a bit it was then that he realized the company of the man he was still with. His cheeks flushed a bright pink and he bowed his head again.


“Thank you…Sir…that was really the best meal I have had…no ever had.” He said in a light tone. Sephiroth smiled and then rose from his seat. He closed the distance between he and Cloud and extended his hand to him.


“Walk with me Cloud.” He said, though it came across as more of a demand then a request. Cloud paused and swallowing a deep breath, calmly rose and took the Prince’s hand. He was more then anxious, more then worried, he shouldn’t be doing this…he shouldn’t have the pleasure of having such good company…to be treated as a human…to be given a meal and kindness…he just didn’t think he deserved it…but the Prince had willingly given it… and why he did, Cloud still did not understand. With his hand in Sephiroth’s, the darkness in his heart lightened a bit…and he was hopeful…for what…he didn’t know. The pair walked back outside and out in the open. The festival had taken on an even more festive mood as the music from the band had changed to a more rock beat tone.


Then something chilled Cloud to the bones, so much so, that he halted in his step. Out in front of him and far off to the left of the crowd with his back turned, was Kadaj, his brothers were nowhere in sight. Cloud made a sound and backed up. As first he had wanted to pull away but the firm grip Sephiroth had on him held him steady.


“What is it?” Sephiroth asked looking down at Cloud. The blonde shook he head and without thinking slipped behind the much taller form of the Prince. Sephiroth made a face as his body twisted with the effort Cloud had made to hide…hide from what? Sephiroth turned around eyeing the crowd, he didn’t see anything that was alarming, but he couldn’t let his sweet angel worry about something. Without saying a word Sephiroth gripped the blonde’s hand tighter and escorted him to the far left of the festival center. He led him a bit further and then down one of the alleyways streets. He had to protect Cloud from whatever was bothering him. Once they were hidden from view, he turned around and faced the boy before him. “Everything okay now?” He asked, very happy to be alone with the blonde…fully alone.


Cloud had followed without hesitation, not really caring about anything else but not being seen by the man. With a sigh he nodded. “I am sorry…it was just…” He tried to say, but he didn’t really get the chance to say much, for Sephiroth had suddenly stepped forward and had wrapped his arms around him so tightly that it was shocking. Cloud froze again, he didn’t know what to do…he was both shocked and fearful…warmed and also calmed. He couldn’t explain it but the fleeting fear to run or to get away seemed to be quickly fading…he just couldn’t explain it. Cloud then relaxed into the hug, but refrained from hugging back, not that he didn’t want to, it was simply something he had never done and he wasn’t about to try it on the most important person of their city.


“Um…Sir…Prince…Sephiroth?” Cloud said softly, hoping this got the man’s attention. To his relief it did and Sephiroth pulled back to look into his face.


“I just had to do it…I feel so strongly for you I can’t explain it.”


“Huh?” Cloud said his eyes widening. The Prince had feelings for him…why? He was shocked and he felt heat rise to his cheeks again, and again, he didn’t know what to say.


“Cloud?” Sephiroth asked softly.


“Yes?”


“Did I offend you?” The Prince asked suddenly. The request was highly unexpected and more then shocking…there were no words to explain it. Even in the darkness Cloud could see that the Prince was serious and he blushed even more.


“Uh no, but Sir why…I am just…a nobody…I.” He tried to say, but his words kept failing him. Sephiroth finally let himself smile and he reached for the blonde, lifting his hand to gently caress Cloud’s face. It was a touch that sent shivers down the boy’s body. Cloud stepped back and found that he couldn’t go very far when his back pressed up against the wall behind him.


“ I just want to get to know you better…to know who you are and why fate had put you in my path.” Sephiroth stated, his words spoken as plainly as if he were merely saying hello.


Cloud swallowed another cautious breath. His mind failed him and he was truly taken aback by what the Prince was saying. He was a servant…a slave…nothing…useless and dirty…why…why would the Prince say things like that to him…he didn’t deserve it…those words…that kindness…it was and should be reserved for someone with equal status in comparison to the Prince…not he…but then again…here they were…it was all so…


“But why me?” Cloud asked again, timidly meeting Sephiroth’s gaze again.


“Because you are someone of importance…to me.” The Prince said, his tone softer now, meaning every word that he spoke.


At that last statement Cloud didn’t know what to say or where to look, all he knew, all he felt, was that this man was warm and kind, and it felt good for once to be liked and to be wanted. Again without warning and without a request, Cloud moved forward and wrapped his arms around the Prince and hugged him. He felt suddenly quite happy and when words failed him, his actions drew him forward. He didn’t care if they were wrong or right…it just felt deserving.


This time it was the Prince’s turn to be shocked, but it didn’t last long. Yes he was indeed surprised that Cloud had hugged him, but he wasn’t about to do anything to stop the pleasant feeling. In response he moved his arms around the boy and then slid them down until his hands rested at his hips. “Cloud…” Sephiroth said softly again. Then without warning, he gripped the blonde’s hips and lifted him up. Then moving his body forward, he trapped Cloud between him and the brick wall behind him. The sudden movement caused the blonde to gasp and then seek out the eyes of the Prince before him.


“What are you?” Cloud tried to say just before he instantly paused when something warm and somewhat wet pressed against the nape of his neck, and when his mind came to focus again he realized that it was Sephiroth and he was….damn it felt good…he was kissing his neck…and it was a feeling that he had never felt before…sending a mixture of wave rushing tingles down his spine. Cloud then did something he could not hold back…he gasped…no, he actually moaned softly at the kiss, unaware that it would only drive the Prince further. Sephiroth smiled and continued his would be assault on the blonde, and after a few minutes he had him breathing heavier then ever before. Then Sephiroth moved against him again.


Cloud panted hard as he was pressed between Sephiroth and the alley wall behind him. He felt two strong hands then lift his slender hips up from the ground and gently place his legs around a firm waist. He could still hear the crowd to their right. Happy cheers and joyous voices as the festival continued on, but they were far from them now...hidden in the darkness of a vacant nearby alley.


The strong hands over him forced him to remain still and it wasn't just that, but the fact that he was also very submissive, he wouldn’t move unless asked, though the thought had crossed his mind in a fleeting worry of fear to try and break away, but...it was the only way he knew how to act. Cloud lifted his hands and placed them upon the upper most part of Sephiroth's arms to brace himself and slowly he turned his eyes up to meet that of the man's before him. "S-sir...I..." He tried to say, hearing the tremble in his voice. His heart was beating so fast that he thought for sure it would burst.


Sephiroth gazed at him, his eyes already appearing hazy. He had been so pleased to have run into the boy again and nothing was going to prevent him from having him now. The initial lust Sephiroth had for the boy needed to be satisfied and it was much stronger then anything he had ever felt before...this boy....this perfect creature of perfection before him...he wanted desperately...to make him his.


"What is it...and please...call me Sephiroth dear one." He cooed softly, bringing his lips to Cloud's before the boy had anytime to answer or react. The kiss was a hungry one and it caught Cloud by surprise, both by its suddenness and its deepness, and before he could do anything back, the lips left his and were quickly placed against the crook of his neck again, where they proceeded lick and nibbled at his skin.


Cloud let out small shallow gasps. It was a reaction he hadn't expected to happen, but then he also had not expected the sudden chills that were spiraling up and down his spine…it felt good. He was slowly starting to feel dizzy as the pleasing sensations moved through him and were unlike anything he had ever felt before. Every time Sephiroth rolled his tongue over his skin he shuddered...every time he had lightly bit at the at his neck, pulling slightly at his skin...Cloud groaned...making noises he had never uttered before and unknowingly to him, he was clearly sending Sephiroth all the right signals.


Sephiroth grinned and pushed his hips against Cloud's, forcing him back into the wall a bit harder then he'd expected to. Cloud both gasped in surprised and with slight discomfort. He was still panting as Sephiroth was kissing further up his neck and running his tongue along the base of his ear. Cloud gasped again and pushed back against Sephiroth…but not to get him away…it had been his hips…and innate response. Sephiroth paused in his kissing and brought his face back to stare into the angle’s before him.


“Oh you like that?” He whispered. He watched as Cloud slowly nodded, being captivated by the feelings the man was giving him, so much so, that he wasn’t paying attention to what the Prince did next.


Skillful hands traveled up between their bodies and loosened the snap that held the blonde’s pants tightly to him. The Prince smiled when he felt it release. Then he slipped his fingers inside, sliding the zipper down as he did so. Fingers entangled around something warm, throbbing, and hard. Sephiroth smiled even more and watched as Cloud jerked against him as his fingers teased along his shaft. The Prince shifted the boy’s weight a bit and in doing so he guided his finger beneath and around his new lovers sex and pulled it out, causing it to spring to life. Sephiroth sighed and wrapped his fingers around Cloud and slowly started to stroke him.


Cloud gasped aloud, the feeling was incredible…so warm…so gentle…and it sent chills down his spine…his body wanted more…but something in his mind was quickly starting to snap back to reality as the fear from past events were making their way back up from the depths of his memory. He pushed against Sephiroth and tried to get free. “No wait…not…now…” He said breathlessly.


Just then Reno appeared before him, only visible to Cloud, and whistled at the sight. He shook his head. “We have to go Yo! Your brother’s are almost home…they will know you are not there…we have to hurry…they can’t find you gone!” Reno said in alarm, fluttering above them. He then noticed that even as Cloud suddenly panicked and was trying to get out from under the Prince, the man’s strength was preventing it. Reno sighed, not really wanting to get too much involved…but this time was urgent and he needed to aid his Cloud. Flying forward he took the Prince’s shoulders and pulled him back. The only thing Sephiroth would feel would be a sudden loss of strength.


“I am sorry…” Cloud said to the Prince before he moved away. Confusion was written all over Sephiroth’s face as Cloud slipped from his grasp and tore off running back out of the alley. He frowned deeply and was too stunned to move. Even still, after tonight…he would find his Cloud again…this wasn’t the end and though he was slightly upset due to the sudden departure, he had no doubt that by tomorrow he would know everything about the boy…he would seek him out…and then…maybe then, they could be together.
