"Mama!" Emi came in crying interrupting Yuffie's explanation.
She jumped out of her seat and ran to her daughter. "What's wrong!? Are you hurt?" Zack was standing next to her looking down and holding Emi's hand.
"I'll get the band aids." Denzel said, now walking up the stairs. Yuffie lifted her daughters dress only to reveal a deep cut that was dripping blood out of her knee. Being a very calm but paranoid mother, Yuffie gently lifted the dress over her daughter's shoulders so fabric wouldn't stick to the cut. She made a mental note to buy shorter dresses for Emi. Zack blushed and went to stand by Tifa when Emi stood practically naked.
Yuffie lifted Emi into her shoulder's and went to the bathroom and started to rub some alcohol on it. To her surprise someone handed her a band aid from over her shoulder.
Emi sniffed loudly and wiped her eyes. "Hello Mr. Vinnent."
He chuckled. "Hello Emiko. Are you feeling better?"
"Yup."
Yuffie felt her heart thudding hard against her chest. This was the man who had completely broke her heart and had completely ruined her hope of any romance.
"There." Yuffie forced a smile. Too bad her daughter was too smart for her own good and could see right through her.
"Mama," She said, wiping a betraying tear from her cheek. "You're crying."
Yuffie grabbed her daughter's hand gently and pulled her into her arms. "I'm crying because I'm so happy that you're feeling better. Now, it's time for your nap."
Yuffie could practically feel Vincent's red eyes boring into her skin.
"Can you tell me the story of the Princess and the Vampire?" Emi asked innocently. Yuffie didn't need to see that Vincent was surprised at the request. Also, she was just mortified that her daughter was just too much.
"Not today sweetheart."
Tifa led them up the stairs and she tucked Emi in a light blanket and headed back downstairs. Cid was sitting with Barret, Reeve and Shelke, while Nanaki sat next to Cloud and Tifa. Vincent merely went back to his spot on the wall.
"Anyway," Yuffie began. "Where was I?"
"The part where you left and didn't feel the need to tell anyone! Plus you brought a fuckin' kid with you!" Cid yelled.
"Hey!" Yuffie snapped, slamming her hand on the table, startling most people in the room. "Don't ever call her kid. Or brat. Her name's Emi, got it?" They all nodded.
"The day I left I was a wreck. I couldn't stand being here anymore. No offense to you all. It wasn't your guy's fault." Well, most of you anyway. "My father sent me a letter saying I needed to be married so I went back to Wutai and married Ken Aki. I got pregnant and kept it a secret for most of the time. One day Ken had a sudden heart attack and left Emi fatherless. She's too young to even remember him, but I just know it will affect her later in the future. So anyway, Godo remarried and had a son. A new heir to the throne, thank gawd. I took Emi and we lived in Kalm for a while. I saw Barret one day and freaked out, and decided that... Emi needed a family."
Yuffie took a deep breath and looked at everyone. "I know this is probably asking too much," She started getting teary eyed. "But, I just want Emi to grow up having a normal childhood. Run around and just be a kid. She's so mature for her age. But... I'm just asking if you'll all be apart of her life. I mean, you don't have to be apart of mine if you don't want to, I could find some place to live close around her-"
"Yuffie," Cloud interrupted. "We're here for both of you. You'd better earn to live with it."
Cid grunted and wiped his eye, then nodded. Yuffie smiled at every single person in the room, including Vincent.
"Thank you." And for the first time since Emi was born, Yuffie had a smile that stretched across her face glowing with happiness.
