For a long time, Angeal said nothing. Sephiroth glanced at his friend in the dim and dismal darkness. His eyes had adjusted well enough to see more than his shadow. There was something in his expression, in his glowing mako eyes. Unsaid words raced through them. Silent thoughts weighed heavily on his friend’s shoulders. Eventually, Angeal forced them all back and said simply, ”Okay.”
That was all, and a promise that he would be there. Sephiroth’s eyes returned to his tea. He was…tired. His body demanded sleep, and it was not like him to refuse his own instincts, and yet…
This time, he would refuse them. For the sake of his mind and whatever lurked there in the shadows.
He finished his tea, slowly, one sip at a time. Angeal did not leave him. Eventually, he placed the empty mug on the table, wincing as he forced his wounded body through the motions. He knew that Angeal would have preferred that he ask for help, but if he couldn’t do even this much…
A feeling of powerlessness swept through him. He was useless without his strength. Without his enhanced abilities, without his sharpened skills, he was…
With that herculean task done, Sephiroth collapsed back into the couch cushions, breathing shallowly as he waited for the pain in his side to recede to a dull throb. He leaned his head back until his eyes had turned to the ceiling. It swam a little as the darkness threatened to take him. His head spun.
”I think I’ll stay here tonight,” he muttered. He knew that Angeal wouldn’t like it. Sitting up like this on a couch was not the best position for his healing wounds. It was more than possible that Angeal would make good on his threats and simply carry him back to bed while Sephiroth was too weak to stop him, and yet…
Here on this couch in the living room he’d long shared with Genesis with Angeal sitting beside him…Perhaps here, the dreams would not claim him.
He allowed his eyes to close. They felt heavy. They demanded rest. His wounds may have done better in a sick room, but he’d get far better rest, he knew, in this place that he shared with his friends, the only people he had ever trusted and the only ones he would ever allow to see him in such a weakened state.
Already, he felt consciousness leaving him. It was as though it had been waiting for his permission, and now sprung its long awaited ambush upon his senses. With the last of his willpower, he summoned the strength to speak, quiet and exhausted as it was.
’I’ll be here if you need anything.’
”Don’t leave me.”
