Cloud is Aerith's lover, according to the novel Case of Life Stream-White, which was officially authored by Nojima. In the FF7 remake, lovebirds might be Lovebirds, Sweet Hearts, Power Couples, or Badass Couples. Square Enix revealed Cloud and Aerith's romance at the Hinamatsuri event by sharing artwork. The two are shown wrapped in a hug with their arms around each other. Case of Life Stream-White was written by Yoshitaka Abe and published by Gakken in 1998. The story follows a young man named Tatsuya Yuuki who finds out that he is actually a clone created by scientists to save humanity. He is told that his original body has been destroyed but that he can create new clones which will grow up to be great heroes. Tatsuya is given a choice: stay with his clones or go on your own life as an ordinary person. If you choose to leave them, you will never hear from them again. If you stay with them, they will protect you and follow your dreams. Yoshitaka Abe wrote many other novels including Life of Link-The King of Fighters series-and more recently Final Fantasy Type-0. His work is popular with Japanese gamers and anime fans alike. Nojima also writes manga and games. His most famous work may be Vagabond, a fantasy manga series about a boy who travels the world looking for magic objects.
