[308] All's Well That Ends Well

Sep 30, 2013 20:42

Challenge: [308] Forgiveness
Title: All’s Well That Ends Well
Word Count: 100
Spoilers: KH1, just to be safe. Takes place during the end credits of KH1.
Notes: This was my favorite part of the ending to the first game, honestly.
Also, I’m back! 2013 can go hang, as a year. It’s been beating up on me pretty much consistently since January, but hopefully that’s done with and I can start posting regularly again. Kingdom Hearts has been in my head a lot recently, so hopefully that will help with writing productivity!


“Hey!”

Cloud cringed inwardly. Cid’s entrance was clearly as designed to startle as the happiness in his voice. “Look what the cat dragged in!”

Cloud wasn’t sure what reaction he should expect, but a sudden armful of half-weeping, half-laughing Aerith wasn’t it. Her first words more matched his expectations.

“You idiot! Why did you leave us?!”

“I’m sorry,” he murmured, knowing that no words could ever be enough.

Aerith paused momentarily, before murmuring back, “It’s okay.”

Cloud pulled away, confused. “Why? How can it possibly be okay?”

Aerith smiled at him, her eyes shining through her tears. “You came back.”
