Sephiroth was in a light, dreamless sleep when the phone rang. Opening his eyes, he blinked a bit to clear the fog and then sat up, moving only to turn on the bedside lamp. Letting a quiet groan slip past his lips, he pulled his hair back in a pony tail and cleared his throat so he didn't sound as tired as he was. Couldn't go answering the phone sounding weak, could he?

Grabbing the phone, he pressed the on button and cradled the phone between his shoulder and his ear so he could get up and put something on (it felt indecent, even if it was over the phone). "Hello?" he asked as he slipped out of bed and padded toward the dresser. He had barely started living on Marmalade Ave and everything was unpacked, neatly stored away and organized, just the way he liked it. It would drive him mad if he left any boxes left unpacked. But that was beside the point.

Cloud took a deep breath, sighing. "You're..Sephiroth, aren't you?" he mumbled, feeling a bit stupid. He hadn't even thought out what he was going to say, much less on how he was going to greet him. He ran one hand through his blonde spikes, still having his knees pulled to his chest. His voice slightly quivered as if he wanted to cry and that's exactly how he felt. Small and weak right about then.

Sephiroth didn't recognize the voice, but that was to be expected. He didn't know many people by voice except his family, "friends" and clients, and this person wasn't from any of the above.

"Yes," he said pulling on a pair of sweatpants since it wasn't warm enough for boxers. "Can I help you with something?" He figured that much--this man sounded distressed, at least, if not scared. Maybe it was that Cloud-boy he had given his number to. the one with the nightmares.

Sitting back down on his bed, he rested his head against the headboard and closed his eyes, but didn't fall asleep.

He opened his mouth to say something but nothing seemed to come out. With another deep breath, moving to stand up. "Its..Cloud. I told you that I had nightmares?" he scooped up the kitten he'd picked up when he moved in, almost instantly feeling better but that didn't mean that the nightmares wouldn't come back. And he could only hope that Sephiroth could help, though the other was a Psychiatrist so maybe he could. The cat ears he had obtained over the last few days twitched some in response, having been laying back against his head at one point from the desperation he felt.

Petting the kitten, Cloud walked his way down to his couch, the white fluffy tail swaying some as he sat down. Damn he wished that he could get rid of them but his powers he couldn't seem to control. Wonder if Sephiroth could help with that too..

Sephiroth watched Cloud, trying to remember where his office was. After that whole fiasco with the time travel, he was having a hard time remembering, because it obviously wasn't past the giant dinosaur and three steps to the left of the large tree.

Of course not.

"It's right off of Pine, on the fourth floor of the building to the right of the Washington Mutual," he said, tapping his chin in the slightest.

Cloud raked his mind to visual where the other said, nodding his head. "I think I know where that is. I've only headed to the school and then to the store but I have a feeling that I know where that is." he shifted some, moving to walk back into the living room where the older one happened to be. He leaned against the armrest to his couch instead of sitting on it, his tail curling some around his waist.

Sephiroth checked his watch and noted that he had about a half hour, give or take, until Cloud passed out from the pills. Until then, he would just make small talk until he was booted from the other's home.

"Mm, other than work, I haven't visited around town. It just seems as boring as where I went to school," he said, blowing hair away from his face.

[1998932]

Cloud listed to the other, his fingers playing with the bottom of his shirt. He laughed lightly at hearing the other say it was boring, only agreeing with him some. "My last school wasn't anything like the one I'm at now.. It was a lot more smaller and I never had to be shy but with this one so big, I can't help but feel so." He caught himself yawning some, shaking his head. He still had a little bit before he'd fall asleep from the pills, but could it be that after walking about his nightmares, he felt better to the point of wanting to sleep?
