Sephiroth lays him down gently on his bed then inspects his wounds

Sephiroth says, "Cloud?"

Sephiroth goes to the sink and gets some warm water and a few cloths and brings them back. Gently roles Cloud over onto his stomach and dips a cloth in the water. Begins to clean Cloud's wounds gently

Cloud Strife says, "Seph..."

Sephiroth says, "I'm here... don't worry... I made sure Zack can never do this again"

Cloud Strife says, "Seph.... What? Was that?"

Sephiroth says, "I'm sorry... I didn't think I'd ever have to do that with you there... I just saw what they were doing and couldn't stop it"

Sephiroth finishes cleaning the wounds

Cloud Strife says, "What... was it?"

Sephiroth rolls Cloud back over and smiles at him... his silver hair draping him

Sephiroth says, "It's ok dear heart"

Sephiroth kisses his forehead gently

Cloud Strife says, "They hurt me..."

Cloud Strife closes his eyes and shivers

Sephiroth says, "They will not be able to again"

Cloud Strife says, "How bad... did he bite me up?"

Sephiroth gently puts his arms protectively around him

Sephiroth says, "not to bad... I've taken care of the wounds. What where they doing that for?"

Cloud Strife says, "Zack.... He blames me"

Sephiroth says, "Why?"

Cloud Strife says, "He... used to rape me.... When I got drunk... blurry memories... he wanted me to stay away from you"

Sephiroth says, "I knew he was keeping something... the bastard. Why do you think I left him even though I loved him?"

Cloud Strife sniffles

Cloud Strife says, "I feel so worthless... both of them had me"

Sephiroth says, "They are paying for it... soon they shall learn that they have more in store for them that is bad"

Cloud Strife says, "Seph.... What was all that?"

Sephiroth says, "what was what? Me hurting them?"

Cloud Strife says, "The dark?"

Sephiroth rolls onto his back and looks up at Cloud who is now on his chest

Sephiroth says, "Cloud...."

Sephiroth sighs, holding him to his chest

Cloud Strife says, "I love you no matter what"

Sephiroth smiles and looks into his eyes

Cloud Strife smiles... but still looks emotionally sapped from what he's been through

Sephiroth says, "Don't worry dear heart... I'll protect you forever now... I'll never allow anything like that happen again"

Cloud Strife says, "Its not your fault Seph"

Sephiroth cuddles him softly

Cloud Strife smiles vaguely

Sephiroth says, "Those two are being punished"

Sephiroth kisses him gently and keeps Cloud in his protective arms

Sephiroth says, "I love you"

Cloud Strife says, "I love you too Seph"

Sephiroth smiles

Sephiroth says, "They are in pain for what they did... and you are safe in my arms"

Cloud Strife says, "Pain? "

Sephiroth says, "yes"

Sephiroth cuddles Cloud, smiling

Sephiroth says, "they deserve it"

Cloud Strife says, "I suppose"

Sephiroth says, "felling any better?"

Cloud Strife says, "yeah..."

Sephiroth smiles

Cloud Strife says, "My angel... guardian angel... saved me... but why didnt you save me the first time..."

Sephiroth says, "first time?"

Cloud Strife says, "In the cell.... With Aeris "

Sephiroth says, "dear heart... I was still asleep... perhaps that helped me to wake up... when I heard you"

Cloud Strife says, "I understand"

Sephiroth says, "why did you call me that by the way?"

Cloud Strife shrugs

Sephiroth smiles softly and kisses his forehead

Sephiroth says, "I don't think Zack ever loved me... but you love me... correct/"

Cloud Strife says, "I love you Seph... I just want to be with you... nothin else"

Sephiroth smiles

Sephiroth says, "I love you as well... and wish to be with you always"

Cloud Strife says, "As long as I live Seph... "

Sephiroth says, "what about after that?"

Cloud Strife says, "Well... what happens when you die?"

Sephiroth says, "You're soul leaves your body and goes to the after life"

Sephiroth kisses Cloud gently

Sephiroth says, "are you worried about death?"

Cloud Strife says, "Not really... I know you'll be there for me"

Sephiroth smiles

Sephiroth says, "always. I'll be there for you forever"

Cloud Strife smiles and puts his head on Sephiroth's chest

Sephiroth says, "I am your angel... I'll protect you"

Cloud Strife says, "my angel"

Sephiroth says, "you can sleep now... I'll watch over you and be there to greet you when you wake"

Cloud Strife smiles

Cloud Strife says, "Fuzzy Angel"

Sephiroth says, "Fuzzy?"

Cloud Strife falls asleep without explaining

Sephiroth smiles and holds him
