Tifa: Cloud! Be nice! *smacks him on the arm*
The Little Things
It was the little things.
His piercing soulful cerulean eyes.
Her beautiful warm ruby eyes.
The way his eyes lit up when they fell on her.
The way her eyes sparkled when they fell on him.
A promise made by an innocent youth. One to protect her for the years to come.
All the times she forgave him for breaking that promise, and for anything and everything else.
The many letters she wrote him while he was in Shinra, even when he never wrote back.
The way he read those letters till holes formed, and kept them in a little box which he took with him everywhere.
The way he annoyed Zack to death with his incessant chatter about the girl back home.
The way she turned down everyone who ever asked her out, her thoughts and heart full of only him.
The little shy smile that he only ever showed her.
The brilliant heart warming and loving smile meant only for him.
The way he bit his bottom lip and looked at his feet and scratched the back of his head when he was embarrassed.
The way she flushed crimson when she was embarrassed.
The time he spent protecting her from danger.
The time she spent waiting for him, piecing him back together, healing him when the pain and guilt threatened to overwhelm him.
The times he offered to take her for a ride on Fenrir when he saw that she was stressed.
The way her smile lit up his day when she said "Sure".
The way he held her close as they watched the clouds and stars together.
The way she accepted that even when she wanted more, not pushing him for more.
The flowers he gave her with that shy smile of his and that wolf ring, a silent promise for more.
The many things she gave to show him she cared, the time she spent waiting for him.
The way he held her hand, fingers entwined.
The way she held his hand, fingers entwined.
The way he put his arms around her and buried his face in her hair.
The way she hugged him close and sighed in contentment when he did.
The way she always called to say "Good night Cloud. I love you" when he was out late.
The way he stayed up just to hear her voice on the phone.
The times he came home early just for her.
The times she stayed up late just to say "Welcome home".
It was the little things.
The little things that helped build up their love for each other.
In a way, that's all they ever needed.
They didn't care about big houses, money, lavish gifts.
They had each other.
And that was enough.

Tifa: Cloud! That's it! I'm going to ignore you until you apologize! *turns away from him, crossing her arms*

Tifa: Do you hear something evilestguyever? No? Must have been the wind.
Cloud: I'm sorry. Tifa? Tifa? Why are you still ignoring me?
