CloudxReader (Vanilla)

Cloud is in and out profusely. Due to the odd jobs Barett had been giving him. It was growing rather tiresome.

If he wasn't sleeping after the job, he was on the job. We rarely spend time together lately.

Today was the day I would put my foot down. I can't continue to feel this way.

Downstairs, deciding to wash the few dishes that had been left in the sink, humming to myself.
I hear Cloud rummaging through his things, preparing the leave.

Just before he takes his leave, he does the same thing everyday.

Approaching me from behind, he kisses my cheek softly.

"I'm off."

Just before he turns to walk away, I grab hold of his arm.

"Cloud, we need to talk." My tone, bitter.

"Can this wait? I need to get over to Barett's before it gets late." He states, as if to brush off my feelings.

Inhaling and exhaling slowly.

Breath.

I think.

"No! It can't wait. I am so sick of you ignoring me! We're together and you don't even act like it.. Instead, you leave, come home, sleep, and do it all over again. I'm surprised you even have time to eat. I'm sick of it! I have needs too. And.. If you continue to act like I don't exist, then I'll find someone who will give me the attention I crave.. I need affection Cloud.." My tone was harsh, my chest begins to tighten, and my throat dries.

Hearing this, Cloud hesitates for a brief moment, before speaking.

"I'm sorry.." Wrapping his arm around me, pulling me in close. "I know I've been busy. I just-- I guess I thought it was okay. Because, you never said anything." His voice was as close to a whisper, but I hear every word.

Strong arms squeezing me, I feel secure, warm.

Pressing the side of my face against his chest, I hum approvingly.

"This feels good." I mumble, "It's been a while since you've held me."

Dropping his chin on my shoulder, whispering into my ear.

"I'll make it up to you."

The warmth from his breath, sends a sudden tingle down my spine.

"Mm!" I whimper softly.
Feeling the heat between my thighs increasing.

Every time we touch I get this kind of rush.

Lifting his head from my shoulder, he presses his forehead against mine, as our gaze locks with one another.

Those deep blue eyes that I love. They were finally staring at me and only me.

Suddenly, he presses his lips against my own and I lose my strength. It's as if my entire body has been drained.

Cloud.

Lifting me off the ground, he whispers against my skin.

"Wrap your legs around me." He demands in a husky tone. Obeying his command, he walks into the living room, sitting down on the couch, leaving me to straddle him.

"Cloud?" He knew I hated being on top, yet his only response is a sly smirk.

Leaning in, he bites down on my neck, causing me to moan out in pleasure.
