1. Prologue

-Prologue-

Yuffie and Vincent had just finished the final battle at Fort Condor. The condor was now gone, but the fortress remained. Cid, Yuffie and Vincent had been on a mission together to find the Huge Materia. The leaders gave them a chance to rest downstairs after their big battle.

"All right, get some sleep you guys! We'll get up tomorrow." Cid grinned, his white teeth showing. And so the party went to bed.

"Ugh…!" A groan sounded through the room. Yuffie heard this. It shocked through her like a shot of ice through her spine. Her eyes lifted and she jumped up from her bed, only her belly shirt and some loose pajama pants on. She saw Vincent, tumbling in his sleep. He looked like he was in so much pain. She walked towards him and leaned over his bed.

"Hey… Vincent…? You OK…?" She reached her slender hand towards him. "Ah…!" It seemed as if time had froze. Vincent had grabbed her arm and pulled her into bed with him. He held the 16-year old girl close to his chest. "Ah…!" She remained speechless, her cheeks turned a rouge blush.

"…Yuffie." He said sleepily. "Don't go…"

"You're… You're just sleeping right…?" She tried to softly laugh it off, but she realized… He was having painful dreams. Dreams where he wanted Yuffie- Not Lucretia- to save him. "Oh no…" She whispered, feeling his heartbeat; The heartbeat that confirmed that he was human. "I think… I've fallen in love with Vincent." Her stomach clamped, and her heart kept beating faster and faster.
