[Cloud was watching very carefully how Sephiroth acted around Aerith. Just in case he tried to lay a finger on her....
But as he observed them both, he was taken aback to see how he cradled her, how his arms tightened around her, how he kissed her head.
His image of Sephiroth, well, the Sephiroth before Nibelheim, was someone who was cold, impersonal, reserved and very indifferent to others. And yet the way he acted here.
Cloud might not have been the most romantically experienced guy in the world but he wasn't stupid. Even he could tell that the two of them were really in love.
Sephiroth and Aerith may or may not notice his eyes wide as he stared at them, not knowing how to react. Or what to think.]
