My Sweet Valentine
**********************************
It was a cold winter day; the 14th of February. Aeris's green eyes dimmed in hopeless ness. Everyone except for her was gone. Cloud and Tifa went on Vacation, Barret and his fiance' Mia went back to Corel, Cid and Shera were in Rocket Town, Reno and Yuffie moved back to WuTai, and RedXIII was in Cosmo Canyon. As for Vincent, he was a lone wolf; no one knew where he was. He was pretty much a roamer. And as For Cait Sith... he was back in Midgar helping rebuild the city.
Aeris stood at the window watchign the snow descend playfully from the gray skies above. The radio DJ was talking about Valentines and Love... she sighed and turned it off. She sniffed. She felt so congested... "Wonder if anyone'll come today... Tifa DID ask me to stay here because someone was supposed to stop by..." Just then as she stared out the window she saw a person in a large gray cloak. "Who in god's name--....?" She ran to unlockthe bar door. She couldn't see their eyes, only the pale lips and part of their cheeks. "C-Come in... out of the cold, please." she said softly, slightly frightened.
"Thank you, Aeris..." the person whispered. It was obviously a man. She blushed slightly. "Would you like a drink? Coffee? Liquor?" She asked. "No... but thank you for asking." he replied quietly, removing the burdening bag from his shoulder throwing it into the corner carelessly."err- may i ask, Ma'am... what day is it? Forgive me but it's taken a few days for me to get here and I can't focus very well because fatigue has overpowered my senses..." Aeris frowned. "February 14th..." The man frowned, unzipping the heavy cloak finally. "May I take your coat?" Aeris asked, even before he had it off. He flipped the hood back, revealing his long jet black hair. Aeris smiled. "So it's you!" He smiled at her. "I never thought you'd be THIS nice to me..." he said jokingly. "It's been a while, Vincent. How have you been?" Vincent sat down at the bar. "I've seen batter days..." he answered.There was a silence. "So... where's your sweetheart at?" He asked. Aeris bit her bottom lip. "Hn... I see." Aeris sighed in releif. It seemed to lighten her emotional load. But then there was a weighing silence filling the room until Aeris became too uncomfortable and broke it. "So how long are you staying?" Vincent looked at her, seeing her recoil in the corner. " Few days minimum. A week max..." he replied. "Oh..." Aeris whispered to herself, looking down to the floor. "Umm... I gotta go clean. B-... Be right back..." Vincent stared at her in confusion as she scurried off. She finally exited the room and he frowned. "Is she afraid of me or something...?" he wondered.
The day dragged by slowly. Night had risen and day faded into oblivion. Aeris walked back downstairs to the main bar. Noticing how cold it was, she grabbed a blanket. Vincent was standign by the fireplace, staring at her dumbfoundedly. "I'm done..." Aeris said shyly. She wrapped the blanket around his shoulders. "Keep warm..." she said sweetly, walking away, seemingly let down. 'No gratitude...?' she wondered. Suddenly Vincent grabbed her wrist and pulled her back as she gasped in shock. "You're not getting away from me this time..." Aeris's face turned bright red. "What're you talking about?" she asked. "You know exactly what I'm talking about... how everytime I try to talk to you you scurry off..." Aeris frowned. She knew what he meant. She did try to run off everytime he attempted a conversation. "So what do you want?" she asked. "I would just like, for atleast 5 minutes, for you to stay in the same room as me... knowing that it's me there with you." Aeris closed her eyes. "Do you think you can do that?" Vincent asked. Aeris turned to look at him. "Why, Vincent?.... why?" she asked. "Because I think you're a great person... just please... get to know me before you judge me." Vincent answered in a soft voice. Aeris smiled. "I don't judge you. I never have...." Vincent blinked in confusion. "You... haven't?" he asked. "No... I think you're a great person, too. You're compassionate and caring... you call yourself a monster... but you're not." she said sweetly. She turned around and hugged him. "Aeris..." Vincent whispered. "No one's said something about me like that... people take one look at me and think I'm some kind of freak...I always thought you were one of those people... but now..." Aeris smiled at him once again.
"Are you still cold?" Vincent asked. Aeris looked up at him and shook her head."No. I'm just Glad to see you happy for once." she answered, cuddling closer to him. He frowned and looked down. "Aeris, I... I think I'm..." Aeris looked at him confused a minute. "What is it?" she asked. "I think I'm falling in love with you..." They both blushed at one another. Aeris suddenly smiled and flung her arms around him, crying. "I thought I was going to be alone this valentine's day... I thought no one loved me... but I guess i was wrong." Vincent pushed his forehead against hers and smiled sweetly. "Now I know why your last name's Valentine... you're so sweet..." Their lips brushed and they kissed. "Now you have a valentine..." Vincent smiled. "Now I don't think I'll be leaving anytime soon, My Sweet Valentine."
