Jealousy
Chapter 8: Truth Comes Out
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Yuffie stared straight at the barrel of the gun, her eyes wide open. 'What is he doing?' she thought as the gun glared at her through its hole of an eye.
Jake had his arm pointing straight, and his eyes locked onto the frightened girl. He grinned as his eyes narrowed.
"What- what are you doing?" Yuffie asked as she finally found her voice. It had changed from fierce and into scared to death in just a few seconds. She walked back a couple of steps cautiously, but Jake only took a couple steps towards her.
"What am I doing?" he asked, his eyes menacingly staring at her. "To get you and that ass back for what you did, that's what." His voice was deep, and now Yuffie knew how strong he was. Probably a little bit stronger than Squall.
"From what?" Yuffie was terrified, scared to death if Jake pulls that trigger that his finger is aimlessly on.
Jake grunted, "You know what I'm talking about,"
Yuffie shook her head. Jake used to be so gentle and shy, what happened to him through the years? He seems more energetic, and of course, more evil. He used to be the sweetest thing, or that's what Yuffie thought.
Jake started to sneer. "I'm tired of you, and now I'm going to make pain for yours and that idiot's."
Yuffie knew he meant Squall. "Don't you dare go for him," Yuffie said, trying to regain her voice.
Jake's mouth twitched into a small smile at the ends. "Yeah, but to put pain in his life is to kill you," Jake took a step forward.
Yuffie's heart started beating faster as he came closer. Her breathing came in short gasps, and her palms started to get sweaty. What was she to do? Sure, she can fight with fists, but when Jake is almost as strong as Squall. She never took her Shurikens. Yuffie was almost completely helpless. Almost.
"Don't go near her," Somebody said behind Yuffie. Yuffie turned around quickly, relief now filling through her. There stood Squall. The moonlight went on his strong body, and he stood there in a venomous glare with his hands clenched into fists at his sides.
Yuffie smiled, but then felt completely stupid. As soon as she turned, she didn't pay attention to Jake coming up behind her. Jake went up right behind her and put his right arm around Yuffie's neck, making her gasp. As he held her neck close to him, his other hand still held the gun, which was pointed at the side of Yuffie's forehead. Yuffie could feel the smooth cold metal touch her bare skin.
Yuffie gasped for air as Jake's arm was tightly around her neck. She stood there uselessly as Jake dragged her back a couple of steps, still in the same position. Squall took steps closer, his fists tightly clenched, ready to fight since he didn't have his gunblade.
"Don't you dare step any closer her or I will shoot," Jake said. Squall immediately stopped and kept glaring at Jake. Jake grinned and said; "Good, now you better not move or I will pull the trigger" His forefinger smoothly went to the little trigger and pressed against it.
"Let her go," Squall demanded, feeling stronger than ever now.
"Do you think I can let her go that easily? I'm not letting go of her, so you better just walk away." Jake looked up for a second thoughtfully, and then looked back at Squall. "Actually, you should really just stay here and watch." Yuffie was gagging for air under his arm.
Squall growled, "Why the hell are you doing this?"
"You should know. Remember that one pleasant day when I told dear Yuffie my secret? Well, you just had to come in-"
"You were hurting her! You deserved what you got!" Squall argued, wanting to take a step closer.
Jake looked up as if searching for something. "Yeah, yeah, I threw a chair at her, but it's not my fault she didn't want to be with me-"
"You were out of control! So what if she didn't love you? Why do you plan on killing her just because she said no to you?"
"Why? You want to know why?" Jake's grip tightened around Yuffie's neck. "I'm not mad at dear old Yuffie, I am really mad at you. All I want to do is kill her to get you into misery after you beat me up badly that day."
Yuffie eyes widened a little. Squall never told her that he beat Jake up.
Jake looked over at Yuffie, "See Yuffie? This guy beat me up badly that day, and you weren't even there to stop him." Jake paused, and then said, "I remember that bitch throwing the chair back at me, and then punching and kicking me until I couldn't breathe. See Yuffie? See how bad this guy is? How can you still love him?"
Squall's breathing stopped at what Jake had just said. Yuffie was also still too. Not only did she find out that Squall kept beating Jake, but Jake had also told Squall how she felt.
Jake noticed the silence of no breathing. "Ah yes, Squallie boy doesn't know that yet, does he?" He sent a glare towards the motionless Squall. "Now you know. This wench had loved you for a long time, and yet you don't know that. Now that you know that, I'm going to kill her so you get more pain by knowing how she felt." Jake tightened his grip more, and now Yuffie felt lifeless.
The gun clicked as it was pressed right on Yuffie's forehead. Jake grinned evilly, but Squall stopped him, "Don't kill her... kill me. She wasn't the one that hurt you-"
"But she did hurt me, by saying no. However, I'm not killing her just because of your pain, but to her pain too. Over the years, I was one of Ansem's servants, and I learned the true power of darkness. I got to feel how good it was to do some damage to people, and ruin people's lives. And by ruining your life, I will have to kill this damn girl so that you can live a miserable life, knowing that she loved you and you never told her how you felt."
Squall's teeth tightly clenched together. What was he to do?
Jake turned his focus back on the gagging Yuffie. "Just so you know, to make your death worse, the bitch loved you too." With that, his finger went onto the trigger, and started pulling it.
Yuffie had other plans. She made her hand curl into a fist and she punched Jake in the groin as hard as she could. He staggered backwards, his grip loosening on Yuffie. Yuffie ran out of his grip, and ran behind Squall for protection.
Squall saw Jake hunching over in pain, and saw this as a good chance. Squall ran over to Jake and kicked him in the head. Jake fell over on the ground and he put a hand over his sore head.
Squall then kicked the gun out of Jake's hands, and it flew across the yard quite a ways. When Squall raised his leg again to kick Jake, Jake's hand flew out and grabbed Squall's leg in mid-air. He Pulled on Squall, and sent Squall flying backwards and landing on the ground hard.
Yuffie watched wide-eyed as Jake stood up and was sending a punch towards Squall's stomach. But Squall rolled out of the way so Jake's hand hit the green ground. Squall then got up and punched Jake square in the stomach.
Jake staggered back a few steps; hand over his bruised stomach, and then regained composure. He then sent a punch and kick at Squall. Squall blocked the punch, but the kick hit the back of his legs. Squall fell backwards onto the ground and Jake kicked Squall in the back of the head. Squall groaned in pain, but got up quickly, fearing for Yuffie.
Jake ran towards his gun that lay helplessly alone on the ground fifty feet away. Yuffie saw this and ran after him. Yuffie was the fastest runner in hollow Bastion, even in high shoes, and caught up with Jake easily. She put her leg out and tripped him. Jake fell face forward and Yuffie ran and grabbed the gun. She felt the cold metal seep through her skin, and prickles went along her spine as she held this deadly object.
"Yuffie!" Squall called, he ran up and was a few feet behind Jake. Jake was pushing himself up.
Yuffie saw Squall's hand outstretched and she threw the gun. The gun flew high into his hand that was held up high. As soon as Jake got to his feet, he found the gun pointing straight at his face. He backed away a few steps, but Squall stepped closer, gun still raised.
"Now you're going to pay for what you did," Squall growled, stepping closer so that the gun touched Jake's nose.
Yuffie couldn't stand this. "Squall, stop!" She yelled as she ran up to him and she put her hand over his hand that was holding the gun.
"I knew you'd fall for me," Jake said, grinning.
"I would never fall for you," Yuffie said and the grin vanished from Jake's face. She looked back over at Squall, "If you shoot him, you'll be just like him. I don't want that to happen to you." Yuffie paused as Squall lowered the gun, slightly nodding. "Let's get the police." (AN: Yes, there are police in Hollow Bastion)
~*~
Yuffie sat on the bench in the courtyard, looking at everything. Groups of people were walking away with Jake. His arms were tied behind his back as he got dragged carelessly around. Yuffie watched them all go through the large doors.
She looked up at the full moon glistening in the starry sky. Not a cloud was seen, and the moonlight struck Yuffie's face beautifully.
Hearing footsteps approaching, Yuffie turned her head to see Squall approaching her. Yuffie stood up as soon as Squall was a foot away from her.
"You never told me that you beat him up," Yuffie said, a slight menacing look shining in her moonlit eyes.
Squall sighed, "I didn't want you to know," he said non-emotionally.
"Why?"
Squall paused, wondering if he should say the truth. Everything was stilled around them and silent. The only sound that could be heard was the wind rustling past the deep green grass. Squall looked down at the rustling grass, as if looking for an answer there. After a while, Yuffie was about to say something when Squall looked back up into her eyes.
One of his hands found hers. "I guess you could say I was scared... scared that you might hate me for acting just like that jerk." Squall's eyes were non-emotional, but Yuffie thought she could see a kind of pleading in them.
Yuffie's eyes widened a little. Squall Leonhart was scared?! To her, Squall had never gotten scared or frightened in his entire life. He was always the one to fight the toughest thing that surrounded them and the one who protected her in any sort of danger. To think that squall was scared for once in his life shocked Yuffie.
They stood there with one of their hands clasped around each other while the other dangled loosely on their sides. Everything was still around them except for their light heart breathing.
Yuffie couldn't tear her gaze from Squall. His eyes looked soft and she almost melted into them right then and there by the way he looked at her.
"Yuffie?" Squall asked after a while.
"Yeah?"
Squall paused and then took her other hand in his. Yuffie was a little shocked at his reactions, but clasped both her hands around his.
"Do... do you really love me?" Squall asked.
As if his actions weren't surprising, but now his questions are shocking too. Yuffie took a deep breath and continued to look into the mass of his big blue eyes. Yuffie slowly nodded her head.
Squall smiled and then put his hand up behind Yuffie's head. His head bent down, and kissed her gently, eyes closed.
Yuffie could've fallen over in amazement right then if it wasn't for Squall's hands holding her up. As soon as Squall kissed her, Yuffie started responding and kissing him back. She let one of her hands go up and touch Squall's cheeks. As soon as she did that, Squall deepened the kiss and put both his arms around her waist and pulled her as close as possible. Yuffie moaned in the back of her mouth as she put her arms around his neck and played with his long hair.
The lover's stood there in the most romantic spot in Hollow Bastion, and shared their first kiss together. It was desperate, and both didn't want to let this moment end. They explored each other's mouths as both were melting away in their tight embrace.
Squall pulled away, breathing heavily, along with Yuffie. Yuffie smiled up at him. Her arms were still loosely hung around his neck and his arms around her waist. Neither wanted to let go, but to just stay like this forever.
"Yuffie, I love you," Squall said as he leaned down for another kiss.
~*~
"Alright gals and gems, lets end this dance with an 80's love song!" The DJ said, his voice booming throughout the room. "Here's Bryan Adams with the song Heaven!"
Squall put his arms around Yuffie's waist tightly as she slipped her arms around his neck. The moved close together, bodies touching. Yuffie's head rested against Squall's chest while Squall's head rested on the top of her head. Right now, both felt in heaven.
Oh- thinking about our younger years
It was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away form me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me coming back for more
Yuffie listened to Squall's steady heartbeat, and relaxed into it. Right now in his arms, she felt warm and protected, like nothing will ever happen to her. She relaxed into his grip and closed her eyes; feeling like this is where she belonged.
And baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Squall's chin rested securely on the top of Yuffie's head. He felt her relax in his arms, and smiled slightly at how much better he felt. The heavy load that was carrying down his heart now got dumped off, and he felt more alive. There really wasn't a way to put it, just that he felt better with the girl of his dreams in his arms.
Oh- once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feeling down
Now nothing can take you away from me
There's a lot that I could say
Just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way
Yuffie saw Aerith and Cloud dancing close together not too far away. She looked at Aerith's smiling face, and then saw Cloud's mouth twitching into smiles at the ends. Yuffie grinned, thinking this was the way it was supposed to be. Yuffie safely in Squall's arms, and Aerith tucked in securely in Cloud's. Nothing could ever make this moment bad, even if it came crashing in here.
And baby you're all that I ant
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Squall tilted his head and kissed Yuffie's forehead, and then rested his chin back up on Yuffie's head. The song seemed perfect right then. Squall and Yuffie felt like in heaven, right there in each other's arms. It was the greatest feeling both have ever felt, even better than the time Sora and all of them defeated the heartless for good. Yes, it felt better than that, better than anything.
I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah- I'll be standing there by you
And baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
As soon as the song ended, Squall looked down at Yuffie, and gave her another passionate kiss.
