Final Fantasy Tranquil Beauty (Sephiroth X Reader)

Tranquil Beauty Chapter 13

Three days have gone by since we have returned to Midgar. Since returning I have yet to meet Sephiroth, the last time we saw each other was when we both said goodbye in the hanger as he was called to an emergency meeting. The city has not changed, the night life is thriving and the people are still running about their ways. Both Aerith and I have been put on reserve and have been waiting to be sent on a new mission. I've noticed that recently the company has been putting the Generals and higher tier SOLDIERs to work. So, because of that it has been a very long three days since I've heard or seen Sephiroth. The days have been so long and dull I feel as if each minute passes to torture me, as the past few months have been filled with so many events so to be told to "rest and relax" is not sitting too well with me.

I've kept my communication open just in case Sephiroth reached out but knowing him he's probably engrossed in his work, which somehow is disappointing. As I was stuck in my selfish thoughts of how much I wanted attention I hear a chime from my phone and excitedly make my way back to my room. On the I.D it read "TIFA" and again I'm disappointed since I believed and wished it to be Sephiroth. After a few more rings I pick up and I hear Tifa's cheerful voice on the other line.

"Y/N! Let's meet up tonight?!" Tifa questions but her tone demanding.

"Oh. I'm actually...not really in the mood for it." I answer back

"No! Cloud told me what happened! You are coming out with us! I'll come grab you at 7PM . Bye!" Tifa says not missing a single beat.

And just like that it's evening and I'm walking arm in arm with Tifa to the nearest bar to my apartment.

The bar was full of people tonight and meeting up with us was Aerith and Yuffie. As I crept my way across the bench seat I felt their eyes watch my every move. Yuffie, just turning of legal age to consume alcohol had just finished ordering us all a round of drinks. Again, all eyes were set on me waiting for me to say something.

"Okay, spill it!" Tifa says with a grin on her face the two following suit.

"What is there to say?" I say my face blushing over as I remember my time at Shinra Mansion.

As if the situation was not climactic enough I have now been placed in unknown territory, "Sephiroth's Girl".

"I mean, I'm still trying to figure everything out. It's not like we both really talked about it. He kissed me I kissed him back. Am I considered a friend? Good friend?... -Girlfriend?!" I say, questions that have been lingering in my mind finally said out loud.

The girls look at me their expressions ranging from astonished to mischievous. The night went by leisurely as the moon climbed higher into the night sky the bar now starting to fill up with even more people. Many of the singles were eyeing our table; Aerith, Tifa, and Yuffie are all very beautiful ladies and though they were approachable they still had some intimidating factors. A man from out of town decided to try his luck as I saw him approaching us from my peripherals. I saw him eyeing Yuffie and I quickly give her a signal with my eyes but as soon as he reached our table his gaze fell on me.

"Hi, What are you up to tonight beautiful?" He flirts.

Wait, I was confused. One, me beautiful? Two, Why was he talking to me? Three, how do I answer him? The girls are heard snickering in the background while I am stuck in this awkward conversation with a stranger. He does not break his gaze and I am found stumbling to find the right words to steer him away. He was handsome, I'd admit, but nothing compared to my silver haired general. Nothing about this man captivated me and looking at him made me yearn for Sephiroth more.

Slowly I saw the stranger reach for my hand but right before he could touch it another hand wraps around his wrist which immediately made him jump.
