So I'm back once again, getting quite good at uploading frequently :) So this chapter isn't beta read since I couldn't get a hold on my dear beta reader, different time zones sucks.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters or the games.

Happy Reading!


" So are you quiting or just taking a break?" Reno asked as he sat down at the bar.

The redhead had decided to show up at his favorite bar, it being Seventh heaven of course. He couldn't have chosen a better time to sit down. Tifa and Cloud were having private conversation. The turk didn't miss a word about their trip neither did he miss how Cloud put an arm around her when he felt like people, mainly men, looking at the black haired beauty. Both supposed to be 'saviours of the planet' turned to him. Cloud glaring slightly but Reno didn't care, he was to used to 's cold stares.

" So Cloudy which is it?" he asked and smiled at Tifa as she placed a glass of alcohol in front of him. Silently giggling at the nickname that Reno persisted on calling Cloud.

The blonde on the other hand grimaced at the nickname the other male gave noticed after some minutes of silence that Cloud wasn't gonna answer she sighed 'Seriuosly these two' she thought.

" He's not quiting Reno, we're planning a family vacation" she said with a smile Reno smiled widely and took a sip on his drink.

" Nice, bet the kids would love that, you're going to Costa del Sol right?" he asked.

The turk didn't mean to be nosy. He was just genuinely happy and wanted to know what his friends were gonna do. And to say that Marlene had him wrapped around her fingers were the understatement of the century. She could tell him to walk through fire and he would. Though the red head would never admit that that was the case.

" Yeah we are" Tifa said after she had served another patron.

" Gonna miss Marl?" Cloud teased him with a small snide smile.

Tifa almost dropped the glass. Cloud Strife didn't tease people, well he teased the kids but that wasn't the same kind of teasing. She watched her lover with big eyes, maybe he was warming up to the turk. He had helped a lot when both him and Denzel had the geostigma. Reno just snorted at Cloud and shook his head.

" No but I may miss my favorite bartender" he replied in the same teasing matter.

Cloud frowned ever so slightly and took a step towards her. Tifa looked up at him, did he really think that Reno posed as a threat of taking her away from him, though she admitted it was kinda funny seeing Cloud act somewhat jealous. Reno laughed heartily and shook his head.

" Relax dude I'm not gonna take her away...she wouldn't like that either" He said and emptied his glass, paying quickly and got up to leave.

" Reno" Cloud said, making the other turn around hands lazily put into his pockets. " I trust you to take care of things"

He always sounded to serious. Reno raised an eyebrow before a big smirk played on his lips. He made a thumbs up at the blonde man.

" Of course Cloudy" he said before walking out. Cloud turned to Tifa who were filling up a glass for a customer. He sighed and got her attention.

" He's a pain in the ass" he mumbled

Tifa laughed at the very Yuffie like expression coming from her partner.

" Well, he's a great babysitter and a good friend" she said and grabbed the glass that the red headed turk had used.

Cloud ducked his head in silent agreement. He would never admit to anyone but Tifa that he did regard Reno as a trusted friend. The bartender turned to him and smacked him gently with the towel she used to clean the glasses.

" Go tuck the kids in" she ordered. Cloud leaned close to her and pecked her cheek before walking upstairs. Leaving her a little out of breath.

" Denzel brush your teeth properly" Cloud said as the younger boy took the brush out of his mouth to say something.

Marlene sniggered at the other as she rinsed her mouth and showed all her teeth to Cloud who pointed at the room, the sign to get her sleepwear on. When she was done the boys joined her, Denzel had changed in Cloud's room. He tucked them both in and patted their cheeks.

" Sleep tight" he said and left the door with just a crack open.

" Goodnight Cloud" were heard from inside.

The ex – SOLIDER walked back downstairs and saw that Tifa were done cleaning. She locked the door and smiled at Cloud. Cloud stretched out his arms, a silent question that only Tifa got. She restrained herself not to run up to him. The black haired woman loved the feeling of Cloud holding her. She felt safe and at home. Yes his arms were her home. She breathed in his masculine scent and closed her eyes, it made her relax longing for her bed.

" So Costa del Sol, a week?" Cloud asked, the sound of his voice reverberating in his chest.

" That sounds like a good plan" she smiled " which week?"

Cloud played with her hair while thinking of what would work. Or more like he appeared to be thinking about it as he had already done the reservations. He put a finger under Tifa's chin and tilted her head upwards.

" Well I thought off next week" He said. Tifa raised her eyebrow, he could see her mind racing with all the things they would have to do.

" Relax Teef, the kids are on break, I have no deliveries to make and you need a change of scenery" he said.

That was very true and some of the things on her to do list were put to rest. She smiled and brushed her lips against his, her heart fluttering just by the feeling of his lips. Cloud pressed her closer and kissed her properly. Her hands went into his hair and grabbed onto it as it felt like her legs would fail her. They pulled apart for air and Cloud stroke her cheek. Tifa placed a soft kiss on his palm before taking his hand and started walking up to the bedroom.

A vacation is what they all needed.
