Chapter 6: Kidnaps and Secret Crushes
(Note: Thank you for reading! I just got done with chapter 5 a couple of days ago, and I feel really happy about that... Sorry it's been forever since I've updated. I'll try my best to update often! I guess it's just cuz I lost inspiration? But now I got a crap load of Midis to keep me inspired. _ Don't ask... I'll try not to become too serious in this story. YA GOTTA HAVE THE FUNNY IN IT! Disclaimer: I don't own any of the FF7 characters, blah blah... ENJOY! )
Tifa and the strange ninja land somewhere in the ShinRa Inc parking lot. Tifa starts to struggle and pushes away from the strange one, "HEY HEY HEY! We could have died from that jump!" The ninja removes the mask and it appears to be Yuffie. "Y-Y-Yuffie?" Tifa takes a closer look. Yuffie nods, "Eyup! It's me alright!" Tifa straightens herself, "Why'd you do that?" Yuffie clears her throat, "I knew Rufus would try to do something on you again. I came along... Sorry." Yuffie looks down at the ground. Tifa flings her hands into the air, "First off I said I was strong enough to take care of myself!" Yuffie looks up, cutting her off, "Well... It surely didn't look like it, considering you were basically stuck in Rufus' grasp." Tifa pouts and turns to the elevator, "Get to the room...Right now." She gets into the elevator, pressing 53 and the elevator doors close right before Yuffie steps into it. "Ugh! That was rude!" Yuffie stammers.
* * *
The elevator stops at the 53rd floor and Tifa gets off of it. She walks slowly over to her room, sliding the card key through and the door opens. She walks in, kicking her heels off, and stands next to her bed. She stares at it, then drops her weight, falling forwards, onto her plush bed. She hears a noise, like if someone was coming in, and she didn't bother to look, "Hey Yuffie." The person came up to her and tapped her on the back, "Yuffie?" The squeaky voice startled Tifa and she turned around quite quickly, "Oh h-h-hi Cait Sith!" He kept smiling, "Why'd ya say Yuffie? Is she here?" Tifa laughed, "No... I was having this dream where she came into my room and I said her name." Cait Sith bounced up once, "Aha. Okie!" Tifa stood up and stroked Cait Sith, "What are you doing here anyways?"
Cait Sith bounced slightly, and shook a bit, "I heard you went on a date and I wanted to see how ya looked in your new dress!" Tifa stood up straight, "Really? Hehe... well here I am." She twirled slightly and modeled. "Very pretty Tifa." Cait bounced a couple of time. Yuffie comes stumbling in, "H-hi Tifa1 Hi Cait Sith." She is leaning forward, out of breath. "Hi Ms. Kanzaki!" Cait Sith bounces over to her, "Why are ya out of breath?" Yuffie smiled a crooked smile, "Gettin exercise!" He gave a blank look, "Okie... Well I must return to my duties!" He turned and the big plush bowed, as Yuffie and Tifa gave the salute. The door closed and Yuffie turned slowly to Tifa, "How dare you leave me behind!" Tifa got closer to Yuffie, "How dare you say I'm weak!" They got in each other's faces and then turned, both saying, "Hmph!"
Tifa grabbed some pj's, and Yuffie grabbed some for herself. They both headed towards the bathroom. "Hey!" Yuffie squeaked, "Watch it!" Tifa pushed her out of the way and closed the door, locking it. "Rrr. I save her and this is how she repays me?" Yuffie waits patiently to get into the bathroom. After 20 minutes Yuffie bangs on the door, "HURRY UP! How long does it take to change? I need to take a shower!" Silence comes from the bathroom. "Tifa! DID YOU HEAR ME?" Yuffie shouts and bangs on the door. It remains quiet. "Tifa? Tifa? Are you there?" Yuffie put her ear up to the door and hears nothing. She jumps back, "I gotta open the door!" She grabs her emergency car key and slide it through and the door opens. Tifa isn't anywhere in there, but her blue dress lies neatly on the sink. Yuffie start looking around in the shower and everywhere, "Tifa! Where are you?"
* * *
Tifa is being pulled through a secret entry in the bathroom and is dragged out into the hallway, with a man's hand over her mouth. He keeps taking her down the hall and into Reno's office. They stumble in and the door closes, as Tifa is freaking out and is squirming. He releases her and she look at who her kidnapper was. Well, as you might of thought, it was Reno himself, considering it was his office. "RENO! What was that for? Why'd you kidnap me? AND HOW DID YOU GET INTO THE BATHROOM?" He waves his right hand around, with his finger over his mouth, trying to shush her, "Shhh! Keep it down! I'm sorry to do that. But I have an issue."
Tifa stands up straight, crossing her arms, and smirking, "Oh really? Well first answer my question about the bathroom." Reno sighs, pulling out a strange card key, "Only Turks have them. They are to open up secret passages." Tifa nods and responded with a surprising, "Oh." Reno points to a chair, suggesting that she should sit down. She looks back at the chair and sits down on the plush, velvet cushion of the wooden chair, "What's your issue?" He sighs and starts pacing back and forth, fiddling with his long, red ponytail.
She looks at him with a strange look and sighs, "Well?" He stops and looks down with a slight blush on his face, "It's Taki." Tifa sits on the edge of her seat, thinking to herself, "Uh-oh...Yuffie. Maybe he found out." She clears her throat, "T-Taki? What about her?" He looks down a bit more and continues fiddling with his ponytail, "Sh-sh-she reminds me of a girl I used to um...date." Tifa, still on the edge of her seat, "Oh really?" A worried look falls upon her face and he turns to her, stands straight, with a serious look. Tifa scoots back in her chair.
Reno then throws himself at Tifa, sitting on his knees, grabbing her hands and begging, "Can you get me a date with her?" Tifa looks at him, and falls out of chair. She jumps back up and looks at him, "Is that your problem? Not being able to get a date with her?" Tifa gets a look on her face like she's trying to hold a laugh in, "But I thought you could get a date with any girl, Reno." He nods and sobs, "But she's different. She reminds me of my last love, and I feel nervous around her." She continues holding her laugh in and thinks to herself, "He's got a crush on Yuffie again! That's funny!" Tifa pats Reno on the head, "Do not fear. I shall do my best to hook you up on a date!" She stands up, with her hands on her hips and she poses like she is a hero. Reno, still on his knees, bows down to her and keeps repeating, "Thank you! Thank you!"
"Now, if I get this date, you'll owe me." Tifa looks down at him. He jumps up quickly and nods, shaking hands with her, "Anything! Anything! Thank you! Thank you!" Tifa makes her way to the door, 'Well...um.... Good night then." He nods, "Yes. Yes. Good Night." She walks down the hall and she hears the door close. Tifa suddenly busts out laughing, "He acts so different when he's talkin about Yuffie. IT'S FUNNY!"
Tifa runs the rest of the way to her room and opens the door. Surprisingly, Yuffie is standing there, with her hands on her hips, with a mean look on her face, "What's so funny, huh? Going out, making me worry? You think it's funny that you had me worried, HUH? HUH???" Tifa walks in, with her right arm across her stomach, leaning forward, and waving her left hand at Yuffie, "No...No! It's not that!" She continues laughing, "I got kidnapped... And you'll never believe by who!" Yuffie looks at her puzzled as Tifa sits on her own bed, while Yuffie sits on her own too, "It was Reno! Can you believe that?" Yuffie shifts back on her bed, "B-b-but how?" Tifa's laughs continue and she points to the bathroom, "There's some special card key to get a hidden passage in there." Yuffie looks at the bathroom then shrugs, "Then what is so funny? Tell me Tifa!" Tifa snorts and finished off the rest of her laughs, "He has a crush on you! He was begging on his knees to get a date with you. Reno said that you reminded him of his last love, which is you." Yuffie grabs her chin and thinks, "So that means he never did cheated on me! What a shock."
Tifa slaps her knee and giggles a bit, "He acted so differently, and was blushing and crying. It was soo funny! You had to have seen it. But anyways. A date. Can you handle that?" Yuffie, changed in her pj's already, curls up in her bed, and turns the light off, "Possibly." Tifa goes to Yuffie's bed and leans over her, "Oh come on. Don't you miss him, or anything?" Yuffie turns more, and her face is planted into her pillow, "Go to bed Tifa. We'll talk about this in the morning." Tifa hears Yuffie's muffled voice and shrugs, "Ok. Fine." Tifa curls up in her own bed and falls asleep.
Yuffie lies there, and turns slightly, with the covers pulls up under her nose. "I don't know. I left Reno in the first place because I thought he was cheating on me. But then again... he wasn't. Oh I feel terrible. I don't want him to like Taki... I want him to like me... Yuffie," She whispers quietly to herself. "Maybe I will go on a date with him and see what happens." She turns in her bed again and snuggles up in her sheets, falling asleep.
* * *
In the morning, Tifa is already up at 5am, getting dressed in gym clothes to go work out, "Oh! Hi Yuffie!" Tifa is doing jumping jacks and stretching. "What in the world are you doing Tifa?" Yuffie tries finding her glasses, and puts them on, "Wait...I don't need these. Oh well." Tifa smiles and looks at Yuffie, "Today is a good day to work out! Come with me!" Yuffie yawns and sits on the side of her bed, "Give me 10 minutes." Tifa cheers and jumps around, "Yes! I got her to go with me!" Yuffie gets up and walks past the energetic Tifa and goes into the bathroom, getting dressed. A few moments later, Yuffie walks out, neat hair, in gym clothes and with her usual Taki look, "Ok, ready." Yuffie sighs and Tifa jumps over to the door and they walk out.
Yuffie turns around and puts a safe lock on the door and Tifa is already waiting at the elevators. She turns around and bumps into Reno and Rude, knocking Reno's files he was carrying, all over the place. "I'm so sorry! I didn't see you guys there." Yuffie is already on the ground, picking them up, and Rude is standing away from them. Reno plops on his knees and doesn't say anything. Yuffie laughs some, "Kind of funny. Everyone lately is bumping into each other and dropping files." You can hear Tifa runs over, but she is running backwards and she bumps into Rude, knocking his files all over the place. She just says excuse me and dances around with her Walkman turned on and with headphones over her ears.
It takes her a second time to realize what she did and she plops onto the ground, turning her Walkman off, "So many files! So many accidents!" Yuffie giggles, "I just said that." Reno and Tifa are both grabbing the same file and he looks at her, then Tifa looks at Yuffie, "Pst! You gunna ask her?" He looks at her puzzled, "What?" She clears her throat, "I said are you gunna ask her! Like on a date." He blushes, snatching his folder from Tifa. Rude grabs his folders and stands up, while Yuffie and Reno are still picking up Reno's massive load of folders. Tifa elbows Rude and pushes him, "...um... I'm going ahead Reno..." Tifa nods and gives a thumbs-up. Rude silently walks off like he always does and Tifa places her headphones on her ears again, dancing away to the elevators.
Yuffie and Reno grab the same folder and they look at each other. They both blush and just sit there, holding it, "So... eh heh heh... Uhm... Taki..." Yuffie looks at him, "Y-y-yes?" Reno looks away, snatching the folder and goes to grab more. He has a serious look on his face, yet the blushing makes him look cute, in Yuffie's eyes. She continues having her hand in the same position as if she was still holding the folder, but then she sighs and grabs more folders. Reno stands up and is handed the rest of the folders. He holds them with one hand and holds his other to Yuffie. Her glasses are slightly crooked and she looks up at him. He is still blushing, looking away, but then she accepts his hand and he pulls her up. She stumbles forward and grasps onto his coat.
Yuffie sits there for a moment and closes her eyes, remembering wonderful memories she shared with him, but then pulls back, "I'm sorry." She doesn't look at him and starts walking off. Reno turns and walks the other direction, but then all of a sudden the sound of files being dropped is heard. Yuffie stops and she turns around. Reno is just standing there, looking down at the fallen files, with his hands to his side. Yuffie runs up to him and he turns around, grasping her hands, gazing into her eyes, "T-T-Taki... Will you go out to dinner with m-m-me... tonight?" She blushes and nods. Reno smiles, "At 8?" Yuffie just blushes and nods. "Great! I c-can't wait," Reno tries to straighten up his speech, and tries shaking away his nervousness. They both go down to pick up the files again and they strike up a small conversation.
Tifa, still waiting at the elevator, pretending not to pay attention, stop dancing and smiles at them, "I'm glad it worked out." Tifa quickly turns her back when she sees Yuffie walking back this direction. Tifa pops some mint gum in her mouth and chews, blowing bubbles, as soon as Yuffie arrived at the elevator. "Let's go," Yuffie cheerfully says to Tifa and smiles. They both get on the elevator and press the button 64, to get to the gym.
* * *
After the gym, Tifa and Yuffie walk back to their room. Yuffie slides the card key in and the door opens, but to only find a bunch of roses lying on Yuffie's bed, "Oh my! How pretty!" Yuffie rushes over and picks them up, reading the car aloud, "To Taki. I can't wait 'til tonight. Signed, Reno." Yuffie giggles, "Aww so sweet!" Tifa smiles, while she wipes her towel over her forehead. She walks over to her bed and lays down, but something sharp ends up pricking her, "OW!" Tifa jumps up and realizes she laid on a rose, with a card attached to it, "Hmm... I got a rose myself!" Tifa picks it up and reads the card to herself, "Thanks." She smirks, realizing it was from Reno.
Yuffie, in her own little world, snaps out of it and turns to Tifa, "We better get a few hours of work in." Tifa looks at her oddly, "It's out day off." Yuffie looks down, but then smiles, "Oh! I knew that. Eh heh..."
"You might want to put those in some water Yuffie," Tifa tells her, as she places her single rose in a tall cup of water. "Mhm! Yes!" Yuffie rushes over to the bathroom and grabs a vase from the sink cabinet, filling it with water and placing the roses in it, "So pretty..." She gazes at them for awhile then realizes something, "OH MY GOSH! TIFA!" Yuffie comes running out, flailing her arms in the air, "I need something to wear! How should I do my hair? I need a dress short cut! But I don't want to look like a slut." Yuffie looks around, then Tifa coughs, "Trying to rhyme m'dear?" Yuffie ignores her and looks in the closet, "I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING!"
Tifa sits on Yuffie bed and crosses her arms, "Ta'think. You, a thief, don't have anything to wear. I'm shocked." Yuffie turns around, looking at Tifa with a psychotic look in her eyes. "Meep!" Tifa leans back some, "Sorry! Here..." Tifa pulls out her phone and the screen of it turns on, "Why don't we just order you a dress from the Wall Market? There is this cool feature on the phone, that'll take a picture of you and place you in the dress. What do you say? I hear they can deliver within 30 minutes." Yuffie jumps over to Tifa, "REALLY? Oh yes! Let's do that!"
They scroll through many dresses and they finally choose one. The phone beeps and a voice is heard, "Thank you for ordering. Your delivery will be there in exactly 23 minutes. We'll accept your payment when your delivery arrives. Thank you." The phone shuts off and Tifa puts it away. "Thanks Tifa!"
"Why thanking me? You're paying. I just let you use my phone." Tifa gives a smirk. Yuffie looks at Tifa with a serious look, "I mean thank you for getting me a date with Reno and helping me pick out a dress. This means a lot." Tifa smiles softly, "No problem. Anything for a friend." Tifa starts to get off the bed, but then Yuffie grabs her hand, "One more thing!" Tifa turns, "Hmm?"
"Do you know how to cut hair? I need a small little hair cut," Yuffie grins at Tifa and Tifa smiles back at Yuffie, nodding.

Tifa and the strange ninja land somewhere in the ShinRa Inc parking lot. Tifa starts to struggle and pushes away from the strange one, "HEY HEY HEY! We could have died from that jump!" The ninja removes the mask and it appears to be Yuffie. "Y-Y-Yuffie?" Tifa takes a closer look. Yuffie nods, "Eyup! It's me alright!" Tifa straightens herself, "Why'd you do that?" Yuffie clears her throat, "I knew Rufus would try to do something on you again. I came along... Sorry." Yuffie looks down at the ground. Tifa flings her hands into the air, "First off I said I was strong enough to take care of myself!" Yuffie looks up, cutting her off, "Well...

She gets into the elevator, pressing 53 and the elevator doors close right before Yuffie steps into it. "Ugh! That was rude!" Yuffie stammers.

Cait Sith bounces over to her, "Why are ya out of breath?" Yuffie smiled a crooked smile, "Gettin exercise!" He gave a blank look, "Okie... Well I must return to my duties!" He turned and the big plush bowed, as Yuffie and Tifa gave the salute. The door closed and Yuffie turned slowly to Tifa, "How dare you leave me behind!" Tifa got closer to Yuffie, "How dare you say I'm weak!" They got in each other's faces and then turned, both saying, "Hmph!"
Tifa grabbed some pj's, and Yuffie grabbed some for herself. They both headed towards the bathroom. "Hey!" Yuffie squeaked, "Watch it!" Tifa pushed her out of the way and closed the door, locking it.

Tifa stands up straight, crossing her arms, and smirking, "Oh really? Well first answer my question about the bathroom." Reno sighs, pulling out a strange card key, "Only Turks have them. They are to open up secret passages." Tifa nods and responded with a surprising, "Oh." Reno points to a chair, suggesting that she should sit down. She looks back at the chair and sits down on the plush, velvet cushion of the wooden chair, "What's your issue?" He sighs and starts pacing back and forth, fiddling with his long, red ponytail.
She looks at him with a strange look and sighs, "Well?" He stops and looks down with a slight blush on his face, "It's Taki." Tifa sits on the edge of her seat, thinking to herself, "Uh-oh...Yuffie. Maybe he found out." She clears her throat, "T-Taki? What about her?" He looks down a bit more and continues fiddling with his ponytail, "Sh-sh-she reminds me of a girl I used to um...date." Tifa, still on the edge of her seat, "Oh really?" A worried look falls upon her face and he turns to her, stands straight, with a serious look. Tifa scoots back in her chair.

"Let's go," Yuffie cheerfully says to Tifa and smiles. They both get on the elevator and press the button 64, to get to the gym.

After the gym, Tifa and Yuffie walk back to their room. Yuffie slides the card key in and the door opens, but to only find a bunch of roses lying on Yuffie's bed, "Oh my! How pretty!" Yuffie rushes over and picks them up, reading the car aloud, "To Taki. I can't wait 'til tonight. Signed, Reno." Yuffie giggles, "Aww so sweet!" Tifa smiles, while she wipes her towel over her forehead. She walks over to her bed and lays down, but something sharp ends up pricking her, "OW!" Tifa jumps up and realizes she laid on a rose, with a card attached to it, "Hmm... I got a rose myself!" Tifa picks it up and reads the card to herself, "Thanks." She smirks, realizing it was from Reno.
Yuffie, in her own little world, snaps out of it and turns to Tifa, "We better get a few hours of work in." Tifa looks at her oddly, "It's out day off." Yuffie looks down, but then smiles, "Oh! I knew that. Eh heh..."
"You might want to put those in some water Yuffie," Tifa tells her, as she places her single rose in a tall cup of water. "Mhm! Yes!" Yuffie rushes over to the bathroom and grabs a vase from the sink cabinet, filling it with water and placing the roses in it, "So pretty..." She gazes at them for awhile then realizes something, "OH MY GOSH! TIFA!" Yuffie comes running out, flailing her arms in the air, "I need something to wear! How should I do my hair? I need a dress short cut! But I don't want to look like a slut." Yuffie looks around, then Tifa coughs, "Trying to rhyme m'dear?" Yuffie ignores her and looks in the closet, "I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING!"
Tifa sits on Yuffie bed and crosses her arms, "Ta'think. You, a thief, don't have anything to wear. I'm shocked." Yuffie turns around, looking at Tifa with a psychotic look in her eyes. "Meep!" Tifa leans back some, "Sorry! Here..." Tifa pulls out her phone and the screen of it turns on, "Why don't we just order you a dress from the Wall Market? There is this cool feature on the phone, that'll take a picture of you and place you in the dress. What do you say? I hear they can deliver within 30 minutes." Yuffie jumps over to Tifa, "REALLY? Oh yes! Let's do that!"
They scroll through many dresses and they finally choose one. The phone beeps and a voice is heard, "Thank you for ordering. Your delivery will be there in exactly 23 minutes. We'll accept your payment when your delivery arrives. Thank you." The phone shuts off and Tifa puts it away. "Thanks Tifa!"
"Why thanking me? You're paying. I just let you use my phone." Tifa gives a smirk. Yuffie looks at Tifa with a serious look, "I mean thank you for getting me a date with Reno and helping me pick out a dress. This means a lot." Tifa smiles softly, "No problem. Anything for a friend." Tifa starts to get off the bed, but then Yuffie grabs her hand, "One more thing!" Tifa turns, "Hmm?"
"Do you know how to cut hair? I need a small little hair cut," Yuffie grins at Tifa and Tifa smiles back at Yuffie, nodding.
