Now it was her turn to stand watch. Rinoa got up stretching her hands with a yawn as she turned to Cloud. "Your turn" She said getting up to let him sleep. The place was dead quite after a few minute and Rinoa just wandered deep into her thoughts, but a scream brought her back to reality. She turned to see it was Cloud who was screaming. He was still asleep so it probably was just a nightmare. Still she couldn't leave him like that. She walked over to his bead to gently try and wake him up.

Cloud woke up the moment he was shaken from his sleep. He thought it was Tifa. But instead, this time it was not her. It was Rinoa....
"I...I'm sorry." He then got up...He was embarrassed....No one but Tifa knew about his frequent night mare struggle....Obviously he was not quite over them yet....Cloud got up out of bed and rushed out of the room....He walked over the railing of the ship and leaned his arms on it...As he sighed.....

Rinoa shook her head with a smile. "No its okay, but it was just a dream nothing to worry about. Hmm do you want to talk about it?" She asked turning to look out the window. "Looks like we are almost there Cloud" Rinoa axed with a bit of excitement in her tone as she spotted Destiny Island. She only hoped to meet Squall there. Rinoa couldn't wait to see him she really did miss him, but a promise was a promise so she had to wait till it was time for her to join in the fight. She was only worried about Cloud though the way he acted and she hurried out after him. "Um Cloud do you want to talk about it whats wrong?"

"Um Cloud do you want to talk about it whats wrong?"
Cloud sighed. As he looked down. But they were more than dreams to him. They were memories.
"I uh....I'm not the best with words....Tifa would tell you that. But yes, some thing is wrong....I haven't had a decent night sleep since the last time I faced my arch enemy...He told me some thing that I just over looked until now....He told me he would never be a memory...He's murdered my family....Tifa's father was murdered by him....And the silly thing is...He was once my hero....I...I wanted to be just like him....Funny how life is. I try to move on and forget. But it's just hard...." Cloud sighed as he looked at the waves that hit the ship below.....But they were getting close to Destiny Island thank goodness....

Seeing the look on his face. Rinoa could tell that something was definitely wrong. She only smiled though as she listened to his every word. "Tifa.... is that the girl you like? your enemy probably was brought back by the Darkness but you can't give up. If you have beaten him before I am sure you can do it again. Its not only your enemy that came back though." She paused with a sighed before continuing "Mine did too and the funny part is that she was the one who gave me this power and now I am going to use it to stop her again."
From the expression on Cloud's face Rinoa could tell that talking about his enemy or thinking of him bothered Cloud alot. "Lets change the subject how about hmm.... Tell me more about Tifa I mean whats she like?"

"Mine did too and the funny part is that she was the one who gave me this power and now I am going to use it to stop her again."
"Good choice...."
"Lets change the subject how about hmm.... Tell me more about Tifa I mean whats she like?"
Cloud knew that she would change the subject. Not many liked to talked about sad or bad things.....
"She's amazing....She's sweet, kind, and has the most intoxicating brown eyes I've ever seen....I find mine getting lost in them....She's always been there for me. I owe her a lot...And...I'm in love with her...."
Cloud stopped. He was in love with her. But he has not told her. Sure he gave Tifa little hints on how he felt. But he probably did not give ones....He was not the type that was good at showing affection....He found himself some times scared to be with her....Because he was trying to tell her the truth but accepting that it was not the right time to tell her.....

"Thanks" Without another word Rinoa just listened to Cloud. She knew that changing the subject was probably good for him. especially when he talked about something or someone he loved and in this case it was Tifa. "Sounds like you really love her Cloud. You have to tell her how you feel, she has to know maybe Tifa feels the same way." She could see a smile spread across his face as he talked about her. It was obvious this was love like no other just like the one she and Squall have.

"Thanks"
"Sounds like you really love her Cloud. You have to tell her how you feel, she has to know maybe Tifa feels the same way."
"Maybe....I don't know if I should. I mean, we've been child hood friends....I don't know Rinoa....What if some thing happened and we broke up...? I can't lose her...."
Cloud knew how Tifa felt. Just by little things she did for him and said....But he was scared too. That what if they did break up...? They would probably go their separate ways....Cloud probably could not handle that...He sighed....But he smiled again. Remembering what he and Tifa used to do just to be alone.....
"When we were little, some thing happened to Tifa. She fell....I tried my best to save her...But I fell too...I recovered...Where as Tifa, she was in coma for a long time....Her father blamed me for everything....We had to hide our friendship from the whole town....."

"Cloud don't you want to know for sure if it could have worked out between you instead of just wondering?" Rinoa asked glancing out at the clear ocean to just smile as she felt the gentle breeze. "You want to know something. Squall never liked me at first, but I never gave up. I tried all sort of things to get him to notice me and trust me it wasn't easy. What really got him though was when I was about to die. That changed everything, thats when he fell in love with me I think its the thought of losing me that scared him." Stretching her hands again Rinoa turned completely to look at Cloud. She smiled warmly at him tilting her head slightly to the side. "I know its a risk but you have got to take that chance unless you want to live the rest of your life in regret."
"Don't tell me you blame yourself for that?" Rinoa asked pushing her hair behind her ears and looked down at her necklace with another smile. "Accidents happen Cloud that doesn't mean that their your fault. I can see that you really like Tifa, but if you wait for long than it will be too late. If you both like each other as you say you do then I don't see why this won't work don't you think its best to give this a chance?"

"Cloud don't you want to know for sure if it could have worked out between you instead of just wondering?"
Cloud looked down...No one has giving him a lesson on love before but he did listen to Rinoa....She was in love as he was with Squall....
"You want to know something. Squall never liked me at first, but I never gave up. I tried all sort of things to get him to notice me and trust me it wasn't easy. What really got him though was when I was about to die. That changed everything, thats when he fell in love with me I think its the thought of losing me that scared him."
"I don't want that to happen between me and Tifa. I don't want her to get hurt..." He didn't want pain to get him the message of how he really felt....The truth was, he knew how he felt....He was in love with her....He's been in love with Since they were kids......
"I know its a risk but you have got to take that chance unless you want to live the rest of your life in regret."
"I've already lived in regret....But, I think what I need to do is just plain out tell her....No matter where we are or what we are doing....Because as you said, it could be too late....I don't want that to happen....."
"Don't tell me you blame yourself for that?"
"Accidents happen Cloud that doesn't mean that their your fault. I can see that you really like Tifa, but if you wait for long than it will be too late. If you both like each other as you say you do then I don't see why this won't work don't you think its best to give this a chance?"
Cloud gave her a smile as he looked into Rinoa's eyes.....
"Squall is lucky to have you....He's needs you...Trust me. I know what he's like....He's not a bed of roses....But you seemed to have softened his heart....And he fell in love...Okay Rinoa I'll try...I promise.....((Looks ahead to see an island))....We're here....."

"I am sorry Cloud I didn't mean to scare you. Its just when I heard you talking about Tifa I can see how much you love her. I want you to be happy both of you. Trust me love is something amazing.... don't give up on it" Rinoa said with another smile before spotting the island.
"So thats Destiny Island" She added looking closer at that world. She chuckled once Cloud mentioned Squall. "Yeah I know but he is getting better with time and I love him just the way he is.I really hope things work out between you and Tifa" Rinoa said glancing back at the island once they reached the docks. "We are finally here"

Trust me love is something amazing.... don't give up on it" He turned around looking at her as she said that and she looked over at the island.....The ocean breeze blew his hair as he turned around....
"So thats Destiny Island" Cloud returned to her side then...."Yeah I know but he is getting better with time and I love him just the way he is. I really hope things work out between you and Tifa" Cloud then smiled at that comment....About him and Tifa...So did he....So did he...."We are finally here" "Yeah we are....Safe and sound...."

Rinoa smiled looking ahead at the island finally they arrived and it was sooner that she expected. "Come one lets go see who else is here" She said hurrying to grab her bag from the room before hurrying back out. She was excited about this and couldn't wait to meet the others and see who else was on the Light side. Rinoa was also eager to use her powers to help the worlds that would make her feel better if she used it to help others
