Disclaimer: I don't own FFVII

A/N: I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sorry for all you readers and reviewers! Please don't be mad at me! I really tried my hardest to update, but every time I tried, some new problem in life would pop up! I'm sorry! Please forgive me! Anyway, I haven't really been in my Cloti writing mode for a while so this chapter I wrote is shit in my eyes. I hope you all enjoy it better than I did...

First date... first everything!
For: cloudlover2989


"Yuffie, this doesn't even qualify as a dress!"

Yuffie sighed. "Teef, this is your first official date with Cloud. You have to show some skin! Besides, it's not like he hasn't seen all of you yet." She added slyly causing her friend to blush.

"It's just..." Tifa frowned at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a black strapless dress that stopped mid thigh and hugged her form nicely. "I mean, it does look good."

Yuffie smiled at her friend through the mirror. "Duh! I picked it out, of course it looks good! Especially with your body, I'm jealous!" She added with a wink, "Oh, are you going to tell him tonight?"

Tifa bit her lip. "I think so... yeah.. Of course, I mean, I need to tell him. Yes. I'm telling him tonight."

Yuffie grinned and then checked her watch. "Oh crap. I have to go Teef, I promised Vince I'd clean the kitchen tonight, yech!"

Tifa laughed lightly and turned to her friend. "Alright, thank you Yuffie."

"No problem. Don't be getting all mushy on me or you'll ruin your makeup." Her friend told her with a hug. "See ya later, call me and fill me in on how things went! Love ya, bye!"

"Love you too, Yuff!" She called out when the ninja flew out the door.

Tifa glanced at the clock. Cloud should be home any minute.

As if answering her thoughts, the front door opened and she heard Cloud make his way upstairs. She wondered if he had gotten dressed already or if he was going to do it now.

He opened the door and stopped in his tracks at the sight of her.

She got anxious and nervous after a few moments of silence. "Hi Cloud."

He snapped out of his daze and looked her straight in the eye. "You look beautiful, Tifa."

She fought down a blush and rubbed her arm. "Thank you. You look really nice too."

He had gotten dressed up, but not too formally. That didn't stop the fact that he still looked good.

"So, you ready to go?"

Tifa stared warily at the champagne, trying to be discreet in not drinking it.

Cloud didn't seem to notice as he was busy looking at the table.

Tifa sighed and wondered why they had decided to even go on a date at all. It would have been much more comfortable at home to sit on the couch with him and watch whatever was on the tv. Of course, she wasn't complaining, this restaurant was expensive and she did like the fact that Cloud had been the one to insist a real "date".

Cloud's fingers twitched and after getting the food he began to sweat. Tifa noticed right away. "Cloud, are you okay?"

He nodded, face void of any emotions, though she knew better; his emotions came through his eyes, and at the moment he looked panicked.

At the same time, both spoke: "There's something I need to tell you."

Cloud gestured Tifa to go first and wouldn't take no for an answer.

The young raven haired woman sighed and placed a hand on her stomach. "Cloud... There's no easy way for me to tall you this..." Pause. "I'm pregnant."

Cloud didn't move. She was relieved however, when his eyes softened and the panic that was there earlier disappeared. He grabbed something inside his pocket and pulled out a box and placed it carefully in front of Tifa.

She had a hand to her mouth, and looked up at him through watery eyes. With shaky hands she opened the box to discover a beautiful ring, not too big and not too small. "Cloud," She whispered.

He rubbed the back of his neck bashfully. "Tifa.. I know I can be hard to live with... and I know I'm not very good with words but.. I also know that I never want to have my life continue without you in it... as my wife. I love you Tifa... and I'm sorry this couldn't be more romantic but, will you be my wife?"

She nodded her head, unable to speak. "Yes," She laughed, "yes, I will be your wife!"

Cloud smiled very small, but knelt down beside her chair and placed a hand over her stomach before kissing his bride to be softly on the lips.

For a first date, a lot seemed to happen, and they wouldn't have pictured it any better.
