Final Fantasy High
Finally, it was the day of the party. Yuffie and Tifa walked up to the front door and knocked on it. The door flew open and they found a drunken Reno leaning on the doorframe. Their plan was a little late.
"Hey there. Glad you could make it, sweeties."
His voice was slurred and his eyesight was blurry. He reached an arm out and touched Tifa on the shoulder.
"Hehe…you look really fine…you can come in." He smiled at Tifa as she rolled her eyes, obviously not amused. Then Reno held Yuffie's hand.
"Now you…you are one fine piece of meat…when I get finished opening the door for all these people, why don't you and I-"
"No." She said sternly and walked inside.
"Well, I don't find you that attractive anyway!" Reno called out. He looked back outside and he grinned. "Hey Cherrie! My fave girl! Come on in!"
Yuffie turned to Tifa. "He doesn't get enough of them, does he?"
"Knowing him," Tifa looked at Reno. "I doubt it."
They sat down on nearby seats and began talking until Reno walked up to them.
"Okay, so what say you two and me-"
"No!" The two girls said in unison, already knowing what his suggestion would be. Reno was so predictable that it wasn't even funny.
"Okay, okay! I get your point. I didn't mean nothin'. Geez, women these days…don't give us guys much attention!" Reno said defensively and moved on to a girl passing by.
Yuffie then turned to Tifa in glee. "You know what? Look what I found on the pavement walking here!" She handed the object into Tifa's hands and she stared at it profoundly.
"Yuffie…this…is a wallet. Do you happen to know who's it is?"
She smiled with great pride, showing her rows of white glistening teeth. "That happens to be Reno's…I kinda took a peek inside. He has a pic of him when he was a baby! He looks so adorable!"
Tifa crossed her arms across her chest and looked at Yuffie.
"No one calls Reno adorable…it's just too…well it's not like someone to call him adorable. It sounds so childish-"
"But he is a child."
Tifa laughed and continued. "Well, what I mean is, school here is quite different. The word 'adorable' sounds nerdy to people. It's boring…that's why people use the word…sexy…but Reno ain't that either. He's neither adorable nor sexy 'cause he's just a jerk. You shouldn't fall for him…he's just a pile of trouble. Get my drift?"
"Yeah, I suppose."
"Besides, he's too old for ya. He loves playin' around with girls so it's best to stay away from him. Go after…hm…Cloud. He's a nice guy." Tifa nodded.
"Isn't he yours? I mean, well, he's too old too. If Reno's too old then Cloud's too old." Although I wouldn't mind Reno…
Tifa blushed profusely and turned away. "Um, no. Cloud's a nice guy but he can be a jerk too. Forget I said anything, okay?"
Yuffie nudged Tifa's elbow with a grin. "Aww…someone has a crush! C'mon! Seriously, I won't tell!"
Tifa sighed, knowing that her life couldn't get any worse. Here she was, stuck with the most obnoxious girl in the entire school and she let out her secret…physically! Okay, she thought. She isn't that obnoxious…she's cool…but asking about him?? She's gotta be pullin' my leg…
"I like him." She murmured, so inaudible that Yuffie could probably hear a pin drop better. "What was that?"
"I like him." Tifa said a bit louder, wondering if this could get any more annoying. Yuffie grinned and leaned back.
"That's cute. You guys would look great together…too bad Aerith likes him." She pouted and sulked.
"Huh?" Tifa's face took a turn for the bemused and focused all her attention on Yuffie.
"It wasn't my fault! Really! The first day we were introduced to your friends and all, we were quite happy that we made friends with you guys since you looked…nice. Um…well anyway, when we went away she told me that Cloud was kinda cute and that maybe she'll get a chance to date him, y'know? I know I should have told her it was a bad idea but she thought it was nonsense and went off to cheerleading practice."
"Oh." Was Tifa's only response. Yuffie looked at her with sad eyes and wondered why she even opened her big mouth. It usually created havoc and now her sister would hate her and Tifa would be so depressed that she wouldn't be able to utter a single word. That did happen to one of my friends…boy this sucks.

Author's Notes: Okay…kinda short. I thought it would be kinda nice to get a bond goin' between these two. Why? 'Cuz I kinda thought that they were more of a 'best friend' thing you know? So that's basically what happens in this story. I'll be surprised if the next chapter comes sooner…oh well. I'm kinda late on this one…sorry minna but I was REALLY busy these past weeks…all cuz of school. Maybe the next one will be better…not sure…again, sorry minna!
