Chapter 1… Confine
"You sure Cloud…?" Tifa asked, sounding worried.
"It's only a couple-a heartless." Reno shrugged.
The blonde just shook his head. "Not yet."
Reno sighed and turned to walk out the front door of the building. "Baby…"
Cloud glared at him as he slipped out of the door. "Reno! That's not very nice!" Tifa yelled, running after him.
"Wasn't trying to be… ow! Don't punch me!"
Cloud smirked at the two as they left and turned to go back up the stairs towards the bedrooms when Tifa's head popped back in the doorway. "We'll be back in a couple of minutes… okay Cloud…?"
He gave her a wave over his shoulder and headed up the stairs, hearing the click of the door behind him.
He sat down on his bed with a sigh… he felt so useless ever since he came back here… Even though he didn't exactly like the way Sephiroth had been using him… he didn't really mind feeling needed in some odd way or another. "Wait… What am I saying!?" He yelled at himself in his head. "I don't miss him… I'm glad I'm here! With Tifa and Barret and-"
Cloud jumped slightly at the sound of thunder outside and his eyes shot up to look at the window… and he froze.
He stood slowly from the bed, eyes wide at the sight… A shadow hovered outside… the one of his nemesis, wing outstretched. He began backing away, keeping his eyes on the window as another crash of thunder cut through the silence, only making his heart race faster when the accompanying flash of lightning revealed the same silhouette.
Cloud clenched his eyes shut and turned his head away from the white light. A shallow chuckle erupted from the opened door and he slowly opened one of his eyes, then the other to look ahead at the silhouette in the doorway.
The memory of his terror shot through Cloud's mind when another flash of white light streamed through the glass. "No…" He breathed. "He's not here… he's not-" His eyes widened as his fingers brushed against leather behind him.
He whirled around and his eyes met the green gaze of his foe. "Good evening… Cloud…" Sephiroth said in a cool, seductive tone. "I've been looking for you…"
Cloud couldn't breathe. He could barely believe… "You… How…?"
The man reached out to touch the blonde's cheek, brushing the tops of his gloved fingers gently over his skin. Then, in a sharp breath, Cloud's brain began to process his situation and he took a few quick steps backwards, his gaze cold. "What are you doing here?" He hissed, demanding an answer.
"I came to retrieve my toy…" Sephiroth said, taking a step closer, keeping his eyes locked on Cloud's.
"I am no one's toy…" The blonde snarled, before turning suddenly and sprinting towards his sword in the corner of the room. He grasped the blade and turned again, lunging it towards the man who leapt into the air. "And I will NEVER belong to you!" He yelled before leaping up as well, the blade plunging down towards the man's head, barely missing the tips of his hair as Sephiroth ducked and landed back on the floor.
"But Cloud…" Sephiroth said, pulling his own sword free from its sheath. "… you already pledged yourself to me…" He stated calmly before shooting upward, sword pointed towards the blonde's chest.
Cloud spun backwards to avoid the attack and then returned the lunge, leaping off of the wall and attempting to slash through the man's waist. The sound of metals strike against one another cut through the air as Sephiroth blocked. "Liar!" Cloud yelled, pushing away with his sword before trying to slice through Sephiroth's other side, the same outcome following shortly after the assault.
The man just chuckled as the two of them landed back on the floor. "Do you not remember…?" He said softly, predatory gaze back on the blonde as he began to stalk closer. "Our last day together…" Cloud backed away, his sword still at the ready for an attack. "…you said you'd do anything…"
"I never-!" But Cloud was cut off by a sharp look from Sephiroth's steal green eyes.
"You said you'd be mine… for all eternity…" He hissed, before lifting his sword and cutting through the air, towards the blonde's head.
Cloud lifted his sword up to block the attack and then Sephiroth slashed his blade to the side, tearing the sword from Cloud's fingers and throwing his own to the ground as well.
Then the blonde's back hit the wall with violently and he gasped at the twinge of pain, soon realizing Sephiroth had shoved him into a corner, his arms now by the blonde's shoulders… trapping him there underneath his gaze. That's when the blonde's memories came back to him…
The man stopped and he looked over the blonde with a dominating gaze. "You must be mine for all eternity… or experience the penalty…" The last words sounded just as seductively sinister as any of the others Sephiroth uttered.
"Anything…" Cloud breathed.
An evil smirk passed across the man's lips at the look in Cloud's eyes. "Aaah… so you do remember…" He breathed, leaning forward to press his lips against Cloud's neck.
The blonde gasped at the feeling of teeth nipping at his skin and he tried to sink into the wall behind, to get away, anything… His arms rose up to push the man away, his hands resting against his chest… but those lips… They were telling him not to move… to just stay and be ravaged… utterly and completely consumed…
A shiver ran up Cloud's spine and he arched a little against the wall, Sephiroth's hands working to unzip the blonde's shirt as his teeth nibbled away at his skin. Cloud bit his lip and his eyes drifted shut as his head fell back. Sephiroth smirked against his skin and moved the cloth of Cloud's shirt away to reveal his chest and torso before leaning closer to his ear. "Now… who was it that was lying…?"
Cloud gasped softly at the feel of the man's fingers running up his sides, and his back craned slightly, pressing his hands harder against Sephiroth's chest. Then Cloud's hands moved to the back of the man's head, his fingers curling within silver hair before pressing their lips together.
Sephiroth was a bit shocked by the attack, but took the chance and delved his tongue between the blonde's lips, Cloud retaliating immediately with intentions obvious to both of them. The man stepped backwards and then turned with the blonde, guiding the him forward with his caresses.
The backs of Cloud's knees hit the edge of the bed and the two of them fell onto its sheets, Sephiroth looking down upon his prey with a hungry gaze. But instead of staring down into sharp, blue eyes… they had changed into a hazy green. Sephiroth smirked and leaned down, close to Cloud's ear to hiss his simple words. "It's working…"
Cloud blinked and his eyes returned to normal, before widening in shock at the position he was in. "Wha… What did you-?" But he was cut off by the sudden emergence of Sephiroth's wing.
He shielded himself from the blast of wind as Sephiroth rose up into the air. Then the man outstretched his hand, his sword shaking for a moment on the floor before flying up towards his open fingers, Sephiroth grabbing it effortlessly and slipping it back into its sheath as he spoke. "You will be mine, Cloud…" He hissed, his body beginning to disintegrate into the air. "…never forget that…"
Cloud watched as he disappeared, feathers drifting down to land upon his bed and body. All the blonde could do was stare at the place where the man used to be, still panting from the kiss that had stolen his breath, the words of the other echoing inside his head…
"Cloud…?"
He jumped at the call of his name and the click of the front door, but quickly settled his racing heart when he realized that it was only Tifa.
"Cloud? You here?" She called out from the hall.
Cloud got up from the bed, quickly gathering the feathers to hide them away from prying eyes. He really didn't need a worried Tifa at the moment. Then he looked around to see the walls' battle scars and his shoulders drooped slightly. "Crap…" He muttered before a knock was placed upon his door.
Tifa gasped when it swung open to reveal a slightly rumpled Cloud… his shirt still open to public view… and she blushed furiously, looking down at the floor. "Um… Was I interrupting something…?" She asked, keeping her eyes away from him.
Cloud noticed what was wrong and re-zipped his shirt before clearing his throat and leaning against the doorframe. "I was about to take a shower…" He said, barely covering up for himself.
"Oh." She said, slowly looking up again… and then her eyes grew wider. "Cloud…? What happened to your room…?"
Cloud moved slightly to block her view. "Nothing." He said quickly.
"But… the walls…" She moved to get a better look, but he moved again as well.
"It's nothing. Now, I want to go and take a shower so can you leave?" He said, feeling a bit irritated with her persistence.
Tifa's eyes met his again and she gave them an analyzing look before stepping away. "Fine." She muttered, turning away from him as the door closed.
Cloud let out a relieved breath and leaned against the door. Then he walked over to his closet, pulling out a shirt and pair of jeans for tomorrow, unzipping his shirt as he moved. The article of clothing fell to the floor and Cloud froze, his mind registering just how much he actually needed that shower… He was already half erect. "Does Sephiroth really affect me that greatly…?" He thought to himself before undoing his belt and zipper while walking over to the bathroom.
But, even though he tried with all his might, he couldn't erase that thought… or Sephiroth's words…
