The bar that Tifa attended, at this time of the morning, was empty. A burgundy eyed girl was behind the counter, cleaning the last table. A heavy sigh left her lips as she finished.
-There! – She said happily –I'm done. – She turned around and entered to the kitchen, she took her white apron off. Tifa always cleaned the bar in the morning, hours before opening. She walked upstairs to her room. In her bed, someone was sleeping. She, trying not to make any noise walked to her shower. A silent groan came from her bed.
-Good morning to you too – She whispered to the blonde boy, who was lying in her bed. He was looking at her with his big blue mako eyes.
-Come to bed – He whispered, removing the covers that were upon his body, inviting Tifa in.
-I'll take a shower. – She whispered again, with one of her lovely smiles.
When Tifa came out of her shower, Cloud was still sleeping. Tifa shook her head slowly, smiling. The sun was bright and shiny, a perfect Sunday. It was the start of everyone's vacations, and the whole Avalanche was coming to spend them at Cloud and Tifa's house, wich was also, by the way…
-Good morning everyone! Rise and shineee!!
-Fuck! – Cloud jumped on his bed, a loud ninjas screams waking him up from his sound sleep, scaring him to death – Yuffie! – He yelled, and then, a giggle started to drip from his lips.
-Good morning to you too – Tifa said, as she combed her long hair
-Vacations at last! – Yuffie said, already jumping in the bed that Cloud shared with his love.
-But Yuffie – Cloud said, still giggling – You don't even go to school!
-Yah, I know. – Yuffie said, winking her eye. – But this means that we're seeing, like, everyone today! And we'll all spend the greatest vacations ever! – She added, and then, started to bounce again. Cloud raised from the bed, and mumbled something about "Vincent" right after saying
-I'll take a shower too.
-Yuffie… - Tifa said with a little grin – Would you mind waking Shelke up? I'll go on and make us some breakfast, Barret will be coming soon with Marlene, and everyone is arriving today. – Yuffie raised her index finger in the air and whirled it a little.
-Sure! – She said walking out.
Since their last fight, everyone had split up, not after having a little celebration. Shelke, shyly, had asked Tifa if she could stay at their home, having nowhere else to go. Tifa consulted it with Cloud, Denzel and Yuffie, neither one of them denying, although Yuffie wasn't happy about it, she still had helped Vincent in his whole fight against Chaos.
"Vincent…" Yuffie thought, her mind reminding him of the tall, dark and handsome man. She was in love with him… Would he mind it? "No…" She said to her self "Probably he'll just blow me off…" Although Vincent looked a lot more relieved after coming back from his last fight, when he almost died, he still was the silent man, who'll just stand in the darkest corner of the room.
-Yo' Shelke. – The ninja said, knocking Shelke's door lightly. –Mind waking up? We're having breakfast now… - She said shyly. She didn't like her much, but, she was stuck with her anyway. She had grown some sympathy for the girl; she was a little bit shy and scared of them all, and Yuffie had no intention of making it worse. "I might not be the coolest person ever, but I still pity her a little bit" She thought, knocking lightly again.
-Mh… - A faint mumble came out of the room. –I going… - Shelke said. –I'll be down in a minute.
-Okey dokey – Yuffie said. After that, she practically jumped down the stairs, being greeted with a lecture from Tifa, who said something about her might hurting herself by jumping like that.
-Brat! – Barred called from a stool
-Barret! – Yuffie said jumping to the big man's chest – It's good to see yoooou! – She said – And you too kiddo – She greeted Marlene by ruffling gently her pretty brown hair.
-Why are you still in your pajamas? – Marlene gently asked Yuffie looked down at herself, baggy white pajama shorts with little lambs, and a white, short sleeved matching button up pajama shirt that also fell baggy in her small frame.
-Whoopsie! – She said out loud, jumping a little – Guess I didn't notice, I'll go and change! – She yelled from the stairs, Shelke was already walking down them.
-Morning kid – Yuffie said before walk into her room "I'm definitely not being all pissed off on her all the time… Just when she causes it… That'll show them who's starting it… She'll always just puts her puppy eyes and say it was me… Not this time… Butthead… Ahahaha, butthead, funny."
-Good morning, Yuffie Kisaragi… Wha… Why are you laughing? – Yuffie popped her head out of her room and simply said.
-It's such a great day! See?! Pretty days make me happy – She said pointing at herself in her must happy voice.
-I see… - Shelke just kept walking.
Yuffie looked at herself in the mirror. Her reflection was a bit different than a few years ago. She had grown taller, maybe just a few centimeters, but a growing up was growing up. Also she wasn't as thin as she used to, but Tifa always said that she was a petite girl, she could never be fat, not even a little bit… She was twenty years old now; her hair was longer, brushing her shoulders now. She had chosen a creamy colored pair of shorts, a white button up white shirt, with no sleeves, a light green jacket, with no sleeves neither and matching bandana and creamy high boots. Looking at herself, Yuffie let out a desperate sigh "There is NO way Vinnie will look at me, still… I'm just a buggy little girl for him… And I am starting to wear down…" Although she was still a bright young girl with an endless amount of energy, and that her will to fight for the love of Vincent was still present in her heart as if it was burnt in there, she was starting to get tired of getting nothing from him, but cut offs… Yes, everyone has a limit… And maybe she was just getting to it.
-One sided love… - She said softly while brushing her bangs with her hand. – How awful can it be? I'm getting used to it anyway… - She said giving herself a comforting smile. She jumped lightly when a knock in her door interrupted her.
-Yesh? – She asked quietly, still gazing at her full form in the vanity mirror
-Yuffie? – Cloud asked gently – Uhm, we're starting breakfast, and you haven't come down, Tifa's making pancakes… Is everything fine? – Cloud, who at first wasn't very fond of Yuffie, after living with her for this long, had grew a brotherly and protective kind of love for her, and was worried about Vincent coming for vacations, after that whole night he spent comforting her, while she helplessly cried feeling like her tiny world was falling apart, after Vincent had gone away to God-knows-where.
-Cloud! Stop it – She said turning and trying to get away from Cloud's grip
-Are you crying? Answer me! – He softly spoke, pulling Yuffie closer to his eye. – You are… - He said.
-Ok, this is what you want? Yes, I am FUCKING crying because Vincent FUCKING Valentine left the fuck off without saying anything, and leaving a goddamn freaking note that just said that he'll be coming back, so yes! I'm crying and I'll cry until my fucking tears run the fuck out! – She yelled, Cloud held her close, Tifa, who heard all the screaming came close, and joined the hug. Shelke was looking from a safe distance.
-At least you know that he is coming back… Shouldn't you trust that? – Shelke asked looking at them rather curiously; she couldn't understand them very well. Yuffie sobbed lightly. After all Shelke was right.
-I'm coming down right now – She said opening her door. Cloud gave her a comforting smile. – I-is he here yet? – She asked shyly. Cloud shook his head.
-Nanaki and Vincent are the only ones that haven't arrived yet, everyone else is downstairs.
-Uhm! Pancakes! – Yuffie said jumping down the stairs. Cloud just shook his head again lightly; "she is trying not to be so nervous about Vincent's coming." He thought as he walked downstairs.
Everyone was enjoying Tifa's pancakes as they chatted rather happily, happy-less… That's how Yuffie was feeling, although she didn't wanted to, she wanted to be happy again… But she knew that her happiness was attached to that tall handsome man in the red cloak.
-Nanakiiiii! – Marlene said jumping of her seat to run towards Red, who was coming trough the front door of the bar slowly, with someone walking beside him; Nanaki greeted Marlene by rubbing his head gently against the girl's little face. Yuffie felt a knot in her stomach. Could that be? Yes! It's him, him… She was getting dizzy, feeling funny and everything.
Now, where were his pointy boots? They were replaced by simple high black boots.
Where was his golden claw? It was replaced by a long, elbow high glove.
Where were his dark garments? They were all replaced, his shirt was still black, but it as a short sleeved one that stuck to his body, perfectly marking every muscle in his chest and torso, his pants were black also, but there was something different to them… Yuffie couldn't tell what. His cloak was gone, gone for good showing his pretty pale face, and plush lips, but oh, still wearing his crimson red bandana.
His red eyes roamed the room until they fell on a tiny figure sitting next to Barret, a ghost of a smile appeared on her face, greeting him. Vincent looked confused at her, but looked away fast enough so she wouldn't notice his blush, still, the sharp mind of the ninja caught the red flush in his cheek and nose.
-Greetings, everyone… - Nanaki said looking at everyone, a bit confused. They were all startled by Vincent's new look. But the only one who dared to broke the silence was Tifa, followed by Shelke
-Vincent! That's a great change! You look so good.
-Where's your claw? – Shelke said. Vincent looked at his gloved hand
-Guess I didn't need it anymore. – He simply said. Everyone started laughing at the statement. Yuffie rose from his seat when Nanaki approached her
-Nanakiiiiiiiiii! – She said hugging him, stroking lightly at his red fur.
-He did this for you… - Nanaki simply said to her ear.
-Huh? – Yuffie said. She couldn't understand his words that well, for everyone were talking, and Nanaki wouldn't talk high enough. He simply shook his head.
After breakfast Tifa took everyone to their respective rooms. Barret and Marlene were going to sleep in Denzel's room. This after Marlene saying that wanted to have sleepover at Denzel's room, and wanting Barret to come too.
Cid and Shera were sleeping at the room at the end of the hallway, Nanaki was sleeping in Shelke's room, after, surprisingly, Shelke's request. Nanaki just couldn't say no. Caith and Reeve weren't sleeping at Tifa's house after all, they just lived in the same city, and he would visit often. And last, Cloud gently asked Vincent if he wouldn't mind sleeping in Yuffie's room. If he did, he and Cloud could sleep at Cloud and Tifa's room, and Tifa will just sleep with Yuffie.
-I really don't mind… Unless share beds.
-No, no. There's a spare mattress in Yuffie's room. – Cloud said, scratching his head lightly.
-It's fine, then. – He simply added, and looked throughout the window again.
-Vincent… May I ask? – Vincent nodded. – Why the change? – Vincent took a deep breath.
-Can we talk somewhere else? – He asked patiently, Cloud placed his hand on Vincent's shoulder and nodded.
-Come on.
-Vinnie! – Came a voice from somewhere in the bar, Vincent, as quick as lightening turned his head to look at Yuffie. – Are you going out with Cloud? Oh I see… Mind if I take your suitcase to my room? Everyone is…
-… Don't mind… - He simply said, as he walked to the door. Yuffie gave a painful look at Cloud; he couldn't do anything at this, for much as he tried… He couldn't even understand Vincent.
Yuffie looked at Vincent walking away with tearful eyes. He grabbed Vincent's suitcase and practically ran upstairs, slamming the door.
Why did it hurt so much? Wasn't she used to this? Why would her heart feel like if someone was crushing it slowly? Why would her lungs paint for air?
-What is wrong with me? – She asked looking at her reflection. Her legs couldn't hold her any longer, and she fell to the floor, sobbing painfully.
Why couldn't Vincent love her, if she loved him so much?
There, I hope you've liked it... I hope to get good reviews, If I do, I'll put the next chapter faster 3!
