"Well go on Cloud!" Aeris pressed, pushing him into the computer seat. Yuffie bounced up and down beside them, her eyes glittering in amusement as she tried to control her giggles. Aeris shot her a warning look and the younger woman ceased her laughing, but a goofy smile remained on her face.
"I just don't get it," he sighed, staring at the computer screen. "How do you know what to go into?" he asked, rubbing the back of his neck. Aeris knelt down beside him, her hand resting on his, which was holding the mouse. Yuffie smirked again as she saw Cloud blush at the close contact but a laugh escaped her lips. The Cetra thought she was laughing at Cloud's lack of knowledge for modern technology and narrowed her eyes.
"Sorry," the ninja giggled, straightening up once more as she tried to control herself.
"Yuffie, would you mind leaving us?" the flower girl asked politely. "I think Cloud would be more comfortable with only one of us here."
"No problem, I'll leave you guys to...it," she sniggered on the last word, knowing they wouldn't catch the reason behind her joke as she left. As soon as the door closed, Aeris began clicking on an icon but was stopped when Cloud cleared his throat.
"Aeris I lied," he muttered. "I do know how to work a computer." Aeris frowned, tilting her head to the side.
"Then why would you...?"
"I don't know why I used that excuse of all the possibilities but I just needed an excuse to get you alone."
"You could have just asked me," she laughed. Cloud blushed.
"Yeah but I...I don't know why I didn't," he whispered. She shook her head, letting her chuckle die down.
"So...is there any new technology you can't use?" she asked. Cloud frowned in thought before he slowly shook his head.
"There may be a few things I need to work on though," he answered softly, his lips dangerously close to hers. Aeris glanced between them and his eyes, a flirty smile appearing on her own mouth.
"I'm sure I could help you with that," she whispered, leaning forward.
