QE:We own nothing.
E.S.P:It was writing this or abuse a small child asleep on the rocking chair.
QE:Small child? She's 15.
Evestar:We were going for the sympathy vote.
QE:Oh. Yeah.
Evestar:Small fluff before we hit the sack.
It was peaceful in the 'small' family. The person with the most energy was currently curled up on the small sofa like an angel wrapped in one of Tifa's wraps. Her face showed perfect ecstasy and peace. All the worries of the day had long gone. No Sephiroth. No Materia stealing. NO screaming. No trying to put bows in Cloud's hair. No ninjaing up on people and poking their sides. It was nice. A small thought crossed the wannabe vampire's that she could be planning tomorrows pranks but now she was just an angel curled up on a lime green sofa. Black hair acted like a blanket. Lips pursed in a futile attempt.
Rick brown eyes asked him politely. He nodded and leant forwards. He was scared he would hurt her with his gold gauntlet and braced himself as he picked her up. She was so light. Light breathe ticked his cheek as her head lolled onto his shoulder. She shifted her weight to nuzzle his cheek before resting against his neck. She sighed contently.
He glared at the wall. She had to make it harder for him. Then again it was just her. He sighed and attempted not to bang her head or legs. Slender fingers reached out from within the wrap and clung to the scarf bit of his cape and refused to let go.
When he finally made his way to her room he quickly realised that he had no means of opening the door. It took a couple of attempts with his elbow to open it and he walked in. He would dump her on her bed and walk out.
He lay her down and tried to unhinge her fingers from his cape. Failing to do that he yanked it out of her iron grip. There was a drug fuelled rage or a tornado was whipping butterflies around inside his stomach as she called out his name in her sleep. Red eyes softened as he sat on the floor next to her and stroked her head. He noticed a yellow plushy under her bed with 'cloud' stitched into its ass. He smirked into his cape. Stupid ninja girl.
Tifa poked her head around the door. "You did know you could have woken her up and told her to go to bed?"
