Blood red eyes examined the name label neatly sown into the headband. A flick of his claw tipped over the edge of his cape and revealed an identical nametag sown there as well.
The bed springs glinked as the ninja rolled down into the hollow where he'd been lying. She opened her eyes lazily but blinked rapidly when she saw what he was looking at.
"yuffie"
"yeah."
"Why?" He didn't need to ask if she was responsible she'd given that away with her tone of voice.
"Costa de la sol, Vincent. You know where we're going next week with sand and stuff. And the sea. We are definitely going swimming. And you can't go swimming in a cape Vincent unless you want the local population to be terrified out of their wits thinking that there is some sea monster on the loose."
"…"
"Plus you can't wear it while you're sunbathing and what'd happen if you left it somewhere and someone picked it up thinking it was theirs. You don't want to lose it now do you? I don't think you can get capes like that anymore."
"…"
"Come on Vincent it's a sensible precaution." This from the person who had made it her life's ambition to never be sensible."
"…."
"And I did it without you even asking. You've probably been thinking you need to get them named for ages."
"…"
"You're not mad, are you?" A hint of anxiety had finally worked its way into her voice.
"Thanks… Yuffie."
She grinned, mischievous in the extreme. "Do you want me to get your claw named too?"
Authors note. I don't support this pairing but the idea came along and the inspiration managed to carry me for the entire length. There's also an alternative longer version with a different culprit that I might write at some point. Maybe a few reviews would encourage me (hint hint)
