DISCLAIMER: I OWN NONE OF THE FF CHARACTERS. I WANT THEM FOR MY BIRTHDAY, THOUGH.

*THE DATE AND THE PLAN*

Vivi waited outside Ruby's theater waiting for Heather. He couldn't help but start to think about what Eiko would say if she caught him.

*Oh man! Eiko is gonna kill me for this. She doesn't have to find out though. As long as Zidane keeps his word and says nothing to her, I have nothing to worry about. Where is Heather at, anyway? She was supposed to meet me here 15 minutes ago.*

Heather walked up behind Vivi and yelled out "BOO!!!" Vivi jumped 10 feet into the air and Heather started to laugh at him. "HAHAHAHAHA! That was a good one!"

"ARE YOU CRAZY?! YOU ALMOST GAVE ME A HEARTATTACK!!!"

"Oh, chill out Vivi! It was just a joke! Lighten up!" Heather said and playfully punched his arm. Vivi and Heather both laughed and entered the theater.

-Meanwhile, at the castle-

Eiko was running down the halls trying to find Vivi. "Vivi!" she hollered, "You had better not sneak up on me again or i'll seek Fenrir on you!" She looked around and saw nobody. "Where is he? I got 10 gil that says that Zidane knows where he is!" Eiko said and ran down the halls to the throne room.

-In the throne room-

The doors swung open and Steiner went over to say hello to Eiko. "Hello Eiko! How are things?"

"There good, how about you and Beatrix?"

"I gave her the flowers and she burned them in front of me."

"What about the candy?"

"I haven't bought it yet because I don't know what kind of chocolate she likes."

Eiko thought for a second. "She told me that fudge was her favorite. But here's a tip. Leave them in her room on her bedside table when she isn't there and leave a card so she knows who it's from. Make sure it is a nice card too and buy a big thing of fudge, ok?"

"Thank you Eiko! I'm sure she will forgive me if I try that!" Steiner said and ran out of the chambers. "Zidane! Eiko yelled when she saw him on the throne.

(gulp) *Alright. Lets see if this works!*

"Hey Eiko! What's up?" Zidane said standing up to greet her. "Actually Zidane, I was hoping you could tell me."

"Eh?"

"I can't find Vivi anywhere and my instincts tell me that YOU know where he is. So spill it!"

"Um, h..he went to Lindblum to get something. He should be back sometime tonight."

"Oh. Ok. Well when he gets back tell him i'll be in my room waiting on him, k?"

"Alright, later Eiko!"

"Bye!" Eiko said and ran up to her room. "Now time to set up Operation:Who do I love!"

-Back at the theater-

"Wow that was a good play huh?" Heather said as they left the theater. "Yeah it was." Said Vivi who was only thinking about what would Eiko say when he gets back.

"Something bugging you Vivi?" Heather said. Vivi snapped out of his trance and looked at Heather.

"Um, Heather?"

"Yeah?" *I knew it! He is going to ask me out!*

"Um, I was wondering if..."

"Yeah?" *OMG! He really IS gonna ask me out!!!!!!*

"I was wondering if we could NOT tell anyone about this night." Heather's heart sank like a rock.

"Um, di..did you not..have a good..time with me?" Heather stuttered as she tried to hold back tears. "No! No! Nothing like that! It just that, word spreads quickly around here and I don't want my girlfriend to find out."

Heather's tears disappeared but her heart was now enraged.

*He has a GIRLFRIEND!? And he still went out with ME?!*

Heather tried to hide her emotions. "You..you have..a girlfriend?"

"Um, yeah. So I would greatly appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone, ok?"

Heather looked up at him. "Alright."

"Alright. I gotta go."

"Hey Vivi?"

"Yeah?"

Heather grabbed Vivi's head and brought it down to hers. Their lips met in a passionate kiss.

*OMG! What the hell am I doing?! Oh..but it feels so good...NO! You are going out with Eiko remember?! But, damn, this girl is a good kisser...*

*YEAH!!! You got him right where you want him. Now just lead him home and work from there.*

Vivi was the one to break the kiss. "I..uh.." he stuttered, "I gotta go! Later!" Vivi said as he ran off as fast as he could towards the castle. He stopped once he reached the front gate to catch his breath. "Oh man!" Vivi said out loud to himself. "Now what do I do? That is the first time I ever kissed someone other than Eiko. I just won't tell Eiko and go on as if it never happened. Yeah! That should work!" He straightened his shirt and went on inside the castle. Right above the front gate, a person was standing on the balcony. She stood there stunned at what she just heard and a tear ran down her cheek. "I..I can't believe it." Eiko said to herself and ran inside.
