Hey this is Flesh-N-Bone, and this is my first attempt at a romance. This is a Cloti, so all Cleris fans I suggest you turn back now. It actually took me 30 minutes to write this, so I hope you all enjoy.

Takes place at Cloud's villa in Costa del Sol, Cloud and Tifa are living together.

Tifa: I just can't seem to get to sleep.

So she sneaks outside to take a walk on the beach.

*Back inside the villa*

Cloud: ::Wakes up:: I can't take anymore of these damn nightmares. Huh? Where's Tifa?

So he goes outside to look for her. Finally he finds her walking barefoot on the beach with the moon shining down on her.

Cloud: Damn, she looks so beautiful.

So he walks up to her

Cloud: Hey Tifa...

Tifa: Oh. The stars look beautiful out tonight don't they?

Cloud: Yeah. /Not nearly as beautiful as you though./

Tifa: Umm... hey Cloud, what did you think of Aeris?

Cloud: What!?

Tifa: What did you think of Aeris? Did you l-love her?

Cloud: No, Aeris was a good friend, she wasn't really my type though.

Tifa: So who would be someone your type?

Tifa: Oh and who would that be?

Cloud: You Tifa, I have loved you ever since we were kids, you are the reason I am still alive. You were always the one that cheered people up at tough times.

Tifa: Cloud, I love you to. I was just afraid to admit it because I thought you liked Aeris.

Cloud: Well, now you know that it was you I always loved.

Cloud wrapped his arms around Tifa and kissed her passionately, he finally had her
