Chapter Two: The Peanut Gallery
By Ranma Inverse
An Alternate Universe Fanfic
Author's Notes: Whee~! ^-^ Remember, this is a
comedy/drama/romance! n.n! I wish I had a scanner so I could put my Doujinshi
of this up on my webpage...(Yes, I draw too. n.n Im drawing a doujinshi-version
of this fic.)
Note 2: I like Cloud. I think Tifa's okay (sort of.
Standable). But in this fic, I get to have fun and make fun of anything
that comes to mind, whether I like the character or not. ^_^
. . .
"But everytime I close my eyes,
all I can think of is you and I..."-Everything You Say, M2M.
. . .
"Thank you for the meal. How did you learn how to cook?" Aeris asked after the dishes were cleaned and put away after being explained how to help by Vincent. He scratched the back of his head and looked at the ceiling.
"When you live alone you learn how." Vincent turned to face Aeris, who was smiling sadly.
"I'd hate living alone..it must be lonely."
Vincent shook his head. "Only when you stop to think about it. It's not lonely when you're doing things and being busy." Aeris shook her own head.
"No, No. There'd be an emptiness in someone's heart even during that." She put a hand where Vincent's own heart was, and looked up at him. After a few moments, she took her hand off and smiled.
"Yes, you've been lonely. Liar." She giggled.
"Enough of the lovey-dovey crap!" The voice belonging to Yuffie spoke up.
"Aw, Yuffie, I was enjoying it!" Whined an even more feminine voice.
"Tifa, I can't believe you enjoy this romance-stuff!" Another voice spoke up, male but equally high in pitch.
Aeris sweatdropped as two faeries, one male with blonde spiky hair, the other the fairy named Yuffie that had spoken to Vincent before, flew in between Vincent and Aeris.
The blonde boy was carrying another fairy on his back, which was weighing him down heavily. "Tifaaa!" He whined. "You weigh too much!!"
"Shut up! Im not fat!"
"You are in that area--" A loud smack rang through the room and then a scream from the fairy that was being carried by the blonde one as his wings stopped moving and both fell onto the ground.
Vincent sat down on the floor and picked the two fallen fairies up. The one the boy had called 'Tifa' looked up at him and smiled. "Thanks! I'm Tifa, and this whiny wuss is Cloud." She smacked him on the back, and he smacked face first into Vincent's hand.
"I'm not a whiny wuss!" Whined Cloud as he stood up and glared at Tifa. "It's just you're own fault you let your.." Tifa glared at him, but he continued anyway. "breasts get so big that you can't fly!"
Yuffie, who had deposited herself on Aeris' head, rolled off it in laughter. Aeris looked a bit sorry for the long, brown haired fairy that couldn't fly, and Vincent just looked like he didn't want to be here.
Heck, he didn't want to be here.
. . .
"Are there possibly going to be any other creatures as annoying as these two?" Vincent sighed as Cloud and Tifa once again fought on his desk while he was trying to get some peace and quiet reading a book.
Yuffie passed the room. "Nope. They're the most annoying pair i've ever met."
Aeris walked in carrying a tray of riceballs, blushing slightly. "It's been a long time since I last cooked something, but I hope these turned out alright..."
Vincent lowered the book from his face and smiled at the chesnut-haired woman. "Thank yo-" He was cut off.
"FOOOOOOOD!" Cheered the three faeries, and tackled one each. Vincent sighed and took two. He bit into one while handing the other to Aeris. She smiled.
"Thank you."
Vincent nodded and lifted his book back up. Aeris turned and left to wander through the house. "I guess he's not the talkative type..." She took a bite of her riceball, chewed, and smiled once she swallowed. "I'm glad! My riceballs turned out pretty well!"
Yuffie flew over carrying what was left of the riceball she had claimed, smiling. "The riceballs were good!" Stating her opinion, she confirmed what Aeris herself had thought. She swallowed the last bit of rice and landed on Aeris' shoulder, crossing her legs as Aeris walked. "So, what are you going to do about this 'Vincent' guy? He has no idea on what you are, either."
The green-eyed young woman stopped in her tracks for a moment, before starting again. "I'm just a normal human being."
Yuffie snorted, "If that's what you want everyone to think, fine, but don't pretend around me."
Aeris turned and smiled at her sadly. "I was a normal human." Yuffie blinked and stood up.
"Don't get sad over it, Aeris! Please? C'mon, i've been you're friend for awhile now. Don't be upset..."
"I'm fine." She smiled.
"..alright then." Yuffie smiled back and flew off. "See you later!"
