Chapter 5: Party Night
Cloud stared at the figure in front of him. " I um." he stuttered.
" CLOUD COME 'ERE!" Barret's voice thundered. He was in the middle of the large crowd by the banquet table. " NO SLACKEN', KID!"
Cloud shook his head. He pushed a huge sigh out and banged the glass he was holding. He left the counter still beet red. ' That girl. That girl..' He turned around. Cloud observed the dark haired woman beside Marlene. ' Is that her?' He pushed through the crowd and came face to face with whom? Vincent Valentine. " Move, Vincent." Cloud demanded.
" Why Strife? Are you gonna make me?" Vincent spoke with sarcasm. He eyed Cloud who was gritting his teeth gently.
" No," Cloud answered as he closed his eyes. He jabbed Vincent on the shoulder. " Sorry, not interested." He patted Vincent's back. He felt a hand tighten his arm.
" Cloud, you just don't understand do ya?"
" Sorry, then." Cloud pulled his arm away. He gripped Vincent's hand hard. They eyed each other maliciously not moving an inch.
" Sorry, coming through!" Tifa stood between them. She placed her hands on her waist and angrily glared at the two boys. Her look stopped at Vincent who made an uneasy face. " So," she started. " There you are staring it off again." She pointed. She placed her hands on each of the boy's chests. " Break it up you two!"
" Hey, Tifa." Vincent whispered uneasily.
' Tifa? Her name's Tifa? Cool.' Cloud thought as he smiled. " listen, I don't wanna start a fight so um ." Cloud began he held Tifa's wrist and laid it down. " I better go. Barret's calling me and uh- see ya Vincent." He waved boodbye. He turned around and halted. ' Shoot! I forgot to tell her to tell me she's sorry.' He straightened up and sighed, ' Oh well, she's gonna work here after all.'
After talking to Barret and after Barret introduced him to some people, Cloud went outside. He stared up the sky to clear his mind. He sat on the porch in front of the bar beside a sleeping Chocobo.
" This sucks. I thought a party would be fun and-" Cloud mumbled and whirled around as he heard a voice from behind.
" You're right a party's supposed to be fun huh?" Tifa stepped forward. She placed both her hands behind her and walked toward the blonde. She sat beside him and now placing her hands under her face to lean on. " The night's pretty dumb." She sighed and turned to Cloud who was staring at her. " Hm?"
Cloud's jaw popped down and slammed shut again. "Huh? Oh yeah." He turned to the other direction. He stroked the chocobo beside him slowly. " How's your night?"
" Nothing much." Tifa's eyes glittered at the stars. " Wouldn't be great if you and Vincent fought at the party?" She giggled making Cloud blush more. " Yeah that would be great!" She stretched her arms upward and landing them behind her. " Oh, I don't believe we met."
" The name's Cloud Strife." Cloud stroked again. He smiled at the chocobo sleeping. " I guess you and Vincent know each other." He choked out. He placed his elbows on his knees. " You two, um, you know."
" My name's Tifa. Tifa Lockheart." She closed her eyes in delight. She rocked back and forth forcing Cloud's eyes to follow her. " And yeah, I know Vincent allright. A very long time.But, no not like that." she stopped and stood in front of Cloud silhouetting her perfect curves. " But he makes me angry sometimes, yah know? He starts fights and and." She clenched her fists.
" Let me guess, you always come and help him out?" Cloud smiled. He inserted his hand in his pockets. " Yeah, I know what you mean. Barret's like that all the time." Cloud hoisted his thumb at the bar. " He gets in trouble and there goes Cloud and Marlene to the rescue!" he joked. He stopped as he looked at Tifa smiling. " You know what? I got an idea."
" What?" Tifa enthusiastically said. "What are you planning now, Cloud?" She placed her hand on Cloud's shoulder.
Cloud blushed and shook his head and answered, " Nothing much. It doesn't involve any one but you and me." His face glowing. " Don't think it that way okay?" He smiled. He grabbed Tifa's wrist and lead her through the alleys. " Oh here we stop." Cloud gestured.
" Huh, Why?" Tifa asked. She looked around but only saw the dirty old street lying in sector 5. " Cloud? Hey-"
" Don't' worry." Cloud covered Tifa's eyes. " Just a little further." He chanted as he led Tifa through the path.
Tifa stopped as Cloud released her from his grip. Tifa closed her eyes hoping to discover what was Cloud's surprise. " Can I open my eyes now?"
" Go ahead." Cloud whispered. He ran in front of Tifa. " Well?"
" So beautiful." Tifa's eyes turned wide. She stared at the pile of flowers in front of her. All of different colored flowers dumfounded her. She walked toward the heap touching the tip of a tulip. " I thought flowers couldn't grow anymore in here in Midgar."
" Yeah, I guess this id the only place that's worth growing." Cloud walked toward her. He stopped when he was behind Tifa. " This is the first time anyone came here besides me." He leaned forward and plucked a rose from its stalk avoiding its thorns.
" I can't believe it, Cloud." Tifa gazed at Cloud's eyes. She smiled and bowed down her head. " Thank you. It's rare to see a sight as beautiful as this." She twisted around and giggled.
" Glad you're happy." Cloud said playing with the rose trapped in his hand. " It's weird though. No one seems to take care of these flowers. No one comes in this church anymore." He sighed as he helped Tifa stand up.
" That' one thing to be amazed about." Tifa walked away. She headed towards the door and called out, " hey aren't you comin'?"
Cloud winced. " Yeah I'm comin'." He trudged toward Tifa still holding the rose.
" Well, let's go!" Tifa grasped Cloud's hand and pulled him toward the door. " Come on hurry up!" She sang.
Halfway through the aisle Cloud stopped. " Uh Tifa." Cloud muttered. He was really red. Tifa's warm hand wrapped around his.
" Yeah, What is it?" Tifa gleamed at him. Her smile such a perfect smile. Her grip tightened as she used both her hands now wrapping Cloud's right hand.
" Here," Cloud handed her the rose. " Take it, It was supposed to be for um Marlene but,- it might die on the way there." Cloud stated like a speeding bullet. He shivered as Tifa pulled the rose away from him.
" Thanks Cloud," She hymned. She held the rose closer to her. Then at that moment Cloud's heart sank. She wrapped her arms around Cloud turning him into a human tomato, yes folks a tomato.
" T-Tifa?" Cloud shuddered yet seemed to like the feeling, " I-um." +==+==+
The night was serene as Cloud and Tifa walked along the sidewalk to the bar. Tifa was in front of Cloud who was pushing his hands into his pockets. Tifa walked ahead placing her hands behind her, humming. The night was still cold and the moon shined. Fireflies swarmed a puddle and every shop was closed. Yep, everything was dark and cold.
They reached the bar after 30 minutes of walking. The bar wasn't as packed, as it was when they left and footprints shown on the mud. The chocobos still slept and the wind howled even louder.
" Cloud there you are!" Marlene sang in a happy tune. " Dad needs you now you know?" She pulled Cloud's arm hard.
" Okay, Marlene." Cloud laughed a bit. He traced Marlene who was running up the stairs, leaving Cloud and Tifa behind. He turned to Tifa who was smiling at him. "What?" Cloud raised a brow.
"Nothing." Tifa lifted her shoulders. " You look like a brother to her you know?" She stepped closer.
"Yeah, like a sister to me too." Cloud looked back. " But, I'd never want to be related to Barret!" Cloud waved his hands in front of him. He laughed a bit and ended with a sigh. " So, um-who are ya waiting for?"
"Vincent, he's supposed to help me out and stuff. You know what I mean?" Tifa giggled. She rubbed her arm in a rhythm. "You know what? We could you know get together sometime. Maybe tomorrow?" She suggested.
" I'll try." Cloud sighed. He wasn't sure about it. He was a pretty busy guy that's for sure. He headed to the door and turned back to Tifa. " You wanna come in?" he gestured.
" No thanks, I'd better go now." Tifa waved back.
" If you say so." Cloud said, disappointed.
Cloud went up the elevator and thought of what happened that night. He smiled and try to fall asleep but with no avail. He was too happy and relaxed now. Because something kept him awake, he forgot to tell Tifa to say sorry.
The night drifted fast. Morning broke and Cloud stared at his ceiling. He was sleepy and closed his eyes, experiencing yet another dream.
