Tifa Lockhart was ecstatic. The seventeen year old had just gotten out of school for the summer, a summer she planned to spend with her boyfriend as much as possible. As the students filed out of their classes throwing textbooks and paper everywhere, Tifa saw her boyfriend waiting for her at the top of the hill just outside the school grounds.
"Reno!" Tifa cried out. Reno saw her and waved. Tifa started running, her legs moving up and down at a steady pace. About three feet before she got to Reno Tifa leapt into the air, hair streaming behind her in the afternoon sun. "GRACEFUL!" Tifa shouted spontaneously at the top of her lungs. Just as she landed on the ground in front of Reno her right foot bent awkwardly and the next thing Tifa knew she was flat on her butt in the most undignified pose imaginable.
"Tifa, are you alright?" Reno rushed to his girlfriend's side. "You aren't hurt are you?" Tifa tried to respond but then she moved her right foot. Pain spread throughout her entire body and she howled like a wildcat being skinned alive.
"It hurts!" The junior screamed. Reno quickly dialed the paramedics and soon they arrived. As the ambulance was hurrying to the hospital, Reno held Tifa's hand and stroked her hair, trying to make her as comfy as possible.
"I'm such an idiot!" Tifa fumed, angry at herself for ruining the start of her summer.
"Don't worry babe, you're not an idiot you're just a klutz."
"I'm not a klutz…" She mumbled, looking down at her shirt. Reno chuckled and lifted her chin up.
"Alright, you're not a klutz but you're certainly not graceful."
"And you're not funny Re-Re." Tifa replied, using the nickname he hated. She laughed at his mock hurt expression and leaned forward to kiss him until her injured foot put a stop to that. Reno closed the distance between them and placed a gentle kiss on her lips. Leave it to Reno to make her feel better even with a fractured bone, Tifa thought to herself.
