Twisted Compulsion

Ch. 5

The two remained silent for what seemed to Aerith forever. Sephiroth had lain back down and was staring at the ceiling, no doubt thinking over what Aerith had said. Aerith still sat in front of him, not sure what to do.

`So, I do have a mother or rather I did… Lucrecia. Hojo you bastard… you never told. You never told me… Lucrecia was my mother you lying bastard… Ugh and he's my father. Disgusting I can't believe it!'

Aerith's stomach began to growl loudly. Now that she had tasted food again her stomach was begging for it. It was acting as though she had starved it for months. `Hey, I was kind of dead and couldn't eat!' she told her stomach. Unable to stand it anymore she got to her feet and went to the table. "I found some food up in the loft, I just brought down the dried fruit," She said to Sephiroth.

Sephiroth slowly got up his feet and joined Aerith at the table, sitting down opposite of her. The two ate a bit in silence; Sephiroth's stomach was acting up too. As the two finished off the last pack of fruit in the buddle Sephiroth said, "Thank you Aerith… for telling me all of this."

Aerith smiled genuinely at him, "Your welcome… I bet… I bet that Hojo wasn't very honest with you about your birth…"

Sephiroth snorted, "He wasn't very honest about anything…"

Aerith smile turned into a teeth grin, "did you just snort?"

"Huh?"

Aerith giggled, "You did!"

Sephiroth raised an eyebrow totally missing what was so funny.

Aerith waved her hand, "I'm sorry I just didn't imagine the great Sephiroth being a snorter."

Sephiroth just looked at her then shook his head. He then smiled, "I'm not that was more of a snort of contempt." Still smiling he climbed to his feet and went back to the loft. "I don't know why but I feel like I'm starving…" He said from above.

Aerith got up and stood before the ladder, "yeah, me too… I wonder why though?"

"I have no idea but if this keeps up we'll run out of food pretty soon…."

Aerith tapped her chin, "well Icicle Inn is somewhere around here and since this is a rescue cabin there must be a map somewhere around here…."

"Catch."

Aerith looked up in time to see a large package coming for her. She let out a small squeak of a scream and instinctively quickly put her arms up. The package bounced of her arms and on to the floor. Sephiroth looked down at her from the ledge.

" I said catch…."

Aerith put her hands on her hips, "well maybe you should give me a little more warning! And while your up there go looking for a map!"

Sephiroth rolled eyes and went back to getting food.

"I saw that! Rolling your eyes at me!" Aerith scowled.

"Ok now. Ca - at - ch…" Sephiroth mocked.

"Aha, very funny, just drop it!"

The two got all the food down and all the blankets as well. In total they had 4 fruit bundles and 5 meat bundles. Both bundles were the same size. Sephiroth crawled around the loft a bit more finding all it had. There were a few backpacks, snowshoes, some jackets, and a sled. `I guess we'll be needing those since the way we're eating this food won't last long…' Finally he found a map. Grabbed it and headed down the ladder. Aerith had already dug into on of the meat bundles; she was wrapped in a blanket. Sephiroth smiled and sat down again, spreading the map on the table and grabbing some jerky as well.

"Well if we head east right away, we'll hit the trees and then we can follow them all the way to the ski trail. Then it's a one shot to Icicle Inn."

"Let's leave tomorrow," Aerith said suddenly.

"It's still storming though…."

"Doesn't matter, it's always storming around here, besides this food won't last very long…"

Sephiroth nodded. The way they were going at it she was right. "Ok, then. Come on you've got to help me get something's down." Aerith made a face; apparently she didn't like the thought of abandoning her food. "We can pack while we eat." Aerith cheered up a bit and stood again at the foot of the ladder. Together they got the all the remaining items down. The whole cabin looked a mess with the entire contents of the loft thrown about it. The two packed their backpacks to the brim with food and piled the sled with wood and blankets and another pack, which was filled with matches and a pot for cooking.

By the time they had done this and eaten their fill it was night again. Sephiroth feed the fire as much wood as it would take, hoping that this night it wouldn't die.

"So, do I get the bed tonight?" Sephiroth asked already climbing into it.

"Are you kidding? And leave me with one blanket in front of the fire screw you!" Aerith yelled standing before the bed. "Move you butt over!" She climbed under the covers and laid with her back to Sephiroth before he could answer. `Holy shit what have it done? Eh, his chest's against my back! Holy crap he's built!' She couldn't help but blush at being so close to Sephiroth. He was after all a very, very handsome man. She remembered fooling around with Zack. That had been fun, but he was always trying to get under her skirt. `Hm… sephiroth under my skirt…. I bet he's got rough hands… Eek! Don't think like that!'

Sephiroth moved over as much as he could, the bed was very small for one person to begin with. The two ended up touching no matter what. Aerith long braided hair was right in front of his face, he couldn't help but smell it. `Oh, she smells so sweet…' Sephiroth bit his lip. Besides the fact that he was dead and then insane for a few years he hadn't had sex in a long time. He got tired of secretaries after a while. He grinned. `Vincent and I have more in common that Aerith thought… I shouldn't be thinking about sex, god I mean I killed this poor girl… this pretty…. Sweet smelling…. Ugh!' Sephiroth shook his head to get the thought out of his head. Like that would ever happen. Sephiroth yawned and let himself drift off, still thinking of the pretty girl who was sharing the bed with him.
