"Come Tifa let's get you fixed up." Shera smiled and pushed Tifa upstairs. She carried her in her room and placed her in front of the mirror. "What's going on Shera?" Tifa looked at Shera as she opened her makeup kit.

"Try and think about it Tifa." Shera raised her chin and applied foundation on her face. Tifa raised her eyebrow and thought about it for awhile. For the whole time Shera was doing her makeup, she was totally clueless. She was clueless but she never fought back. Her hunch tells her that it is something she shouldn't fight against it.

After her makeup was done, Shera brought out a dress from the kitchen. It was simple yet pleasing to the eye. Shera asked her to get dress while she called their good for nothing escort. She dialed her phone and disappeared from Tifa's sight.

Whose plan is this? Did they set us up? How will they get Cloud to be part of this plan? I don't even know what the plan is.

"Tifa are you done? Cid is here to come pick us up." Shera peeked at her room and smiled. "You look beautiful. For something Cloud made, this is something surprisingly good."

"Cloud did?"

"Yes, it's custom made. I bet he even made this from scratch without anyone's help, well except from the tailor." Shera guided her out of the kitchen and put a blindfold on her eyes. Tifa heard a motor from outside with Cid shouting profanity at them. He kept complaining on how slow they were.

Upon getting near the car, Cid opened the door and complimented how beautiful Tifa was. Tifa blushed and smiled. Cid locked the door and start off the car. The whole ride was hell. The road was rocky and Cid kept bumping on rocks, not to mention Cid was shouting every time. Based on that, Tifa can clearly deduce that she was in Midgar – the slums to be exact.

Then suddenly it hit to her, everything made sense. The rope, the basket of rose petals, the bells and of course Yuffie's infamous cake slicer made sense. Why didn't I think of that before? Even today's rings and pillow from Marlene and Denzel was a dead giveaway. She thought as she bit her lip.

"There is a wedding taking place today!" Tifa said to herself as she realized everything. Her hands were shaking while Shera and Cid were smiling from the view. They were glad that she already figured it out. Cid pulled out the car and opened the door for Tifa. She took the blindfold off and was surprised to see the view.

The church was completely different. Did Cloud do this by all by himself? The door was completely new and it was even newly painted. Not to mention there was even decoration all over the church. Vincent emerged from the shadows and greeted Tifa and the others. He bowed down his head and opened the door.

Tifa walked in the aisle as she looked on every bits of the church. Everyone clapped their hands for her. She was very emotional at that very moment. She cried as she saw everyone inside. Shera helped her get up while Yuffie cheered for her in the backgrounds.

She started to walk again on the aisle. Her white bottom banded dress shone out among the rest. It was simple; it was made with polyester, a white chiffon dress with a side zipper opening. It reminded her of her first wedding with Cloud. She also wore a white dress that day albeit much more extravagant than this. She even remembered that everyone was dressed formal that day. It was very difficult for Barret and Cid to put on a suit. Even Yuffie strongly disagreed about wearing a dress.

But looking at them now, the things they wore was simple but still fit for the event except for Red XIII who have a bow and tie around his neck. Shera took off the lab gown and wore a simple dress for the occasion. Cid, her husband, wore a simple t-shirt and pants but the thing that was different from today was no oil and grease was in his face and all over his body. Yuffie lay down her garments for battle and wore a simple sleeveless t-shirt with a cardigan on top of it and a denim short –a thing that will never be lost on her attire. Barret on the other hand laid down the fish nets and wore a vest instead. Marlene and Denzel beside him were completely normal except that Marlene put her hair down and put a ribbon on the back of her hair.

After her long walk on looking at her friends, she saw Cloud at the very end. He bowed down and asked her hand. He smiled as he escorted her. Reeve was the acting priest of the wedding. The wedding went down easily. They said their vows and kissed in the end. Tifa felt that it was much better than her first one.

After the wedding was over, they gathered around Tifa and said congrats to her. Yuffie , who was holding Arisa all the time gave it to her mother. She kissed her cheek and cried again. Cloud approached them and said sorry.

"I would like to say my reasons about my divorce but I think this is not the right place to say that." He said as he looked at everyone's eager eyes even though they already know the reasons. "Aha! I know you also planned a honeymoon Cloud. You're so naughty." Cloud blushed to what Yuffie said. Yuffie pinched Arisa's cheek and smiled. "Arisa you will have a baby brother soon."

The couple blushed while everyone laughed in amazement. Cloud coughed and said that he wanted to borrow Tifa today and asked a favor to everyone to keep an eye out on Arisa. He dragged Tifa out and took her in his motorcycle and went on some place.

It was the Healin Lodge, the place where Rufus and the others used to stay. But after the events with Sephiroth's remnants, Rufus gave it to Cloud as a payment for his hard work. "I wish we could stay a bit longer but with Arisa at Edge I think we should not be away from her."

"Then why didn't we bring her with us?" Cloud blushed and scratch his nose and said," I know you Tifa. You will focus your attention more to Arisa than to me. And I really want to talk to you alone with no nuisance"

Tifa smiled and entered the house. "Then shall we get a move on? You have many things to explain about." Cloud nodded and followed her. "Why don't we cook something first?" He said as he went on to the kitchen. The sun was already setting when they arrived. Tifa nodded and went to his side. Cloud guide her at the refrigerator and helped her cooked the food.

After the food was set, they ate at the dinner table silently. Tifa patiently waited for Cloud to open up but Cloud had another plan on his mind. The two finished the dinner after a few minutes. Tifa went to the sink and was about to wash their dishes when Cloud said that she could do it later and must come outside quickly.

The night sky was beautiful. Tifa was always busy at Edge so she doesn't have time to notice things like this. Cloud was seating on the grass near her. He invited her over and said, "Do you remember the day before we fight Sephiroth? We sat near each other and looked at the sky talking about our feelings. I thought this kind of scenery will help me convey my feelings like before."

Tifa smiled and rest her head on his shoulders. "Why did you still ask divorce even though it's going well? Did you felt guilty?" Cloud nodded and said, "I felt bad for not being there for you guys so I thought that I don't deserve the love you give. But I can't simply let you go so in order to forgive myself I need to…."

"Start anew?" Tifa said as she finished his sentence. "You wanted to get married again to bury your mistakes from the past?" Cloud nodded while Tifa burst in laughter. Cloud was blushing and thinking that she had the same exact reaction Barret and Cid had.

Tifa stopped laughing and wiped her tears. "You know a simple sorry will do the trick. But knowing it's you, you will not forgive yourself easily. That's what I find adorable yet irritating side of you Cloud," she hugged him and kissed his cheek. She laughed again as she looked at Cloud's shocked face.

She stopped laughing and buried her face on her knees. "Cloud, why do you always distance yourself whenever everything is doing well? Are you still afraid that someday we will leave you?" Cloud shook his head and replied, "No, I know now that wherever you are you will always be at my side like Aerith and Zack do. It's just every time everything was going well I always do something that I can't forgive myself to."

"You mean when you were not there when Arisa was born?"

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be. I know you better than you know. I know something urgent happened that time that it can't be done later on. But could you tell me what is it?" Cloud sighed and took something on his pocket. He showed the beaded bracelet and said, "I made this to give this the moment Arisa is born. I also wanted to be the first one to hold her but I lost it that day after I fetched Barret."

"I hate you." Tifa suddenly said and smiled. "It's not fair. Why only Arisa get to have a present from you? " Cloud grinned and said, "You already have yours, my heart." Tifa laughed as she pushed him away from her. Cheesy as it may, Tifa never heard him said that before so it was a sure hit for her.

"Cloud we're not teenagers anymore."

"Hahaha but admit it you didn't saw that coming do you?"

Tifa hid her blushing face and diverted the topic, "How did you make it possible? I mean the wedding this morning. I can't believe you had done it all by yourself."

"Actually it's not possible without everyone's help. Barret helped me build the foundation of the church. Cid delivered cement and other materials for the church. Shelke helped me keep an eye out of you on coming there. While Yuffie helped me design the dress you wore and Shera doing your makeup and also Marlene for giving me a cheesy pick up line."

"Figures." Tifa said as she heard the last line from Cloud. "The tailor on the wall market helped you out on making my dress right?" Tifa laughed and added, "It kinda have the same feeling when you cross-dress when you went to save me with Aerith."

Cloud remained silent and let Tifa rest again on his shoulder. "Cloud, will you always be like this from now on?" Cloud nodded. "Cloud, will you still continue to abide the rules Marlene made for us?" Cloud nodded again. "Cloud will you sleep beside me from now on?" Cloud was shocked as Tifa posed the question. At first he thought she was pulling a joke on him but she remained silent.

"I actually planned to beat the crap out of you when I realized you planned another wedding for us. But as soon as I saw the fruits of your labor I can't make myself do it. You were so so…." She stopped talking and cried again. Cloud looked at her and embraced her. He kissed her forehead and wiped her tears. "I'm sorry for being selfish."

"So will you sleep at our room from now on?"

"Yes."

[A/N]

I'm back! It's very hard to think of a dress to suit her. I really wanted her dress to be simple to fit on the occasion since it's sudden. Some of the dress I saw was not appropriate for her age. It doesn't mean she let herself go or something it's just she doesn't need revealing dress since she is already a wife and she already had daughter.

Note that that sleeping with Tifa was metaphorical only. It signifies her loneliness without Cloud on her side. It's not a gesture of her wanting "stuff" okay? Sorry I'm not into that kind of stuff. I'm too young to think of that and to write that.
