A Very Christmasy Paradox

By Vincent 'The Vampire' Valentine

Snow rained from the heavens. It was christmas eve and we were all at Squalls annual christmas party. There was a christmas tree in the corner with mogs dressed up as santa and chocobos pulling his sleigh as decorations.

I was around a group of friends, Tifa, Cloud, Wakka, Selphie and of course my beautiful girlfriend, while drinking a bloody mary. We were cracking jokes about lawers and christmas and of course some rude jokes.

Squall tipped the glass he was drinking from.

'Everyone, I would like to tell you that the lovely Rinoa Heartly has just agreed to marry me.

We all clapped, whistled, and drank in a toast.

'Good for Squall and Rinoa but how can you drink that crap?' Yuffie asked me 'I mean its vodka and tomato juice, tomato juice!.'

'I like it'

'Whatever you say'

'Hey Vincent, Id like you to meet two friends of mine' Rufus Shinra said 'Reno and Rude, they are with the turks, I believe you once had an affilation with them?'

Yes I did, anyway how are you doing?' I asked them

'Fine, and you?' said Reno. Reno was in his mid 20's, spiky fire red hair tied back in a pony tail. Two red tatoos on his temples, he wore what could be a snappy turk uniform only his was a mess, no tie, shirt tucked out.

'Im ok, and how are you, Rude?'

'Great.' Rude wore sunglasses and a more tidy version of Reno's uniform. He had a scruffy beard and was bald.

Yuffie walked by me.

'Oh Yuff, Id like you to meet Reno and Rude. They work with the turks' I said and indroduced her.

'You worked with them befor...'

'I know, I know'

'Anyway Vinnie I want to spend some time with you, you've been so 'to yourself' since we got here'

'Oh sorry but I have my reasons'

'And whats that?' She asked.

I produced a small black box from my pocket, got on one knee opened the box to show a small gold ring, and asked 'Will you marry me?'

'Oh Vinnie, of course I will'

I took her hand and put the ring on her finger.

I got off the floor, dipped Yuffie and kissed her. When we were done we held each other and hugged.

'Should we tell them?' I asked Yuffie.

'Yeah, its Christmas' she replied.

I climbed onto a chair.

'Everyone, I may just be ripping the idea from Squall' a few people laughed 'but Yuffie, no, the lovely Yuffie has agreed to marry moi'

Whistles and claps filled the room.

When the party was nearing to a close. Squall announced 'Well my dear friends, Christmas is apon us again, and I want to wish every one of you a merry christmas and a prosperous new year, and try to drink just enough that you can enjoy it but remember it' some people laughed. 'Now you don't have to go home but you can't stay here!'

Me and Yuffie left ten minutes later and headed over to my house and ended up crashing as soon as we got in.
