Disclaimer: I don't own FFVII

A/N: Alright, I know what you're all thinking, -dodges flying tomatoes-, BUT, I am so sorry! Truly, I am! Not only am I uber busy, but I am just in one of my Depp-Loving phases, completely oblivious to the outside world, taking comfort in my cozy bed watching any movie that has Johnny in it...

Seriously, it's pathetic. I've already watched POTC, The Secret Window, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Finding Neverland all in the matter of 48 hours...

Anyway, I hope you all take comfort in knowing I've created another chapter just for you!

Oh, and by the way, I had to change my pen name because of a few buggers pestering into my account. Bloody bastards... With that end note, drinks all 'round! Enjoy!

How's it goin', Sud?

The light shone down through the window and onto the eyelids of an already stirring figure.

Tifa opened her eyes and quickly shut them, not used to the rays of sunshine beating down onto her. Confused, she glanced at the clock, only to spring off the bed before coming to a halt.

Oh yes... Today was her day off...

Taking the time to stretch, she noticed a flower and a note on her nightstand and quickly grabbed the folded paper and read it carefully, while tenderly fingering a petal.

Good morning Tifa,

If you wake up before I'm back, just wanted to let you know I'm just out getting groceries. Hope you slept well and slept in. Be back soon.

My Love,

Cloud

She smiled and looked out the window to see if Fenrir was outside. It was, but her truck wasn't so she guessed Cloud must've taken it to load the groceries in. Lazily gathering her things in peace, she then proceeded to shower, dry her hair and dress.

As she made her way downstairs she noticed that there were empty grocery bags sprawled across the table and a very content Cloud at the sink.

Tifa stifled a giggle and walked beside him, taking in his appearance with amusement; he had sud bubbles rising out of the sink and floating in the air, most of them landing on his vest and his smooth face. She had the urge to gently wipe them away.

"Why, Mr. Strife, I do believe this is a good look for you!" She giggled, flicking some bubbles off his shoulders.

Cloud merely lifted the corners of his mouth, knowing she'd be teasing him.

"Did you sleep well?" Cloud asked, changing the subject.

Tifa felt her cheeks grow warm, but smirked nonetheless.

"Very well, actually." She smiled. "How about you? Tired at all?"

Cloud smirked, but still kept his vision on the task at hand. "Quite. Seems a certain someone decided to keep me up all night."

Tifa chuckled. "Didn't sound like you were complaining."

"I wasn't. I'm not." He said, putting away a cup.

Tifa beamed. "So, now that you're done with the dishes you look about ready to have a bath. Maybe we can add bubbles." She giggled, popping one that drifted between their locked gazes.

"Whatever the Mrs. wants." He said, closing the distance between them.


IMPORtANT: I know this chapter was a bit rushed, and perhaps a bit out of character but I am in the middle of a writers block, yet determied to write for you lovely fans and reviewers even if I don't feel like it's my best work. Forgive me for long updates and short chapters, I really am trying my hardest. Well, go on and review! And no flames, savvy? -winks-
