Pre-Party

Yuffie had spent the better part of two hours getting ready. She wore her white silky dress, the high-heels Tifa picked out for her, and a silver necklace with a small heart for a decoration. The small heart, which no one knew, opened to reveal a picture of her on the left, and Vincent on the right. No one would ever find out, or so that's what she believed. Her make-up was made up of pink lipstick just a tad darker then color of her lips normally, grey eyeliner, and white eyeshadow to match her dress. Her hair she had done by putting it up into a low pony-tail and used a white(yes, white crazy today, odd) clip to keep it up, the hair at the end of it falling down just below the clip.


Tifa had also taken the better part of two hours to get ready. She was only interrupted four times, all of which by Cloud wanting to see how she looked. Geez, one would think she'd think he'd be crazy about her, well, if she didn't doubt it because she was crazy about him. Tifa had just finished, she wore her dress she picked out, and the high-heels Yuffie had chosen for her. The necklace she was wearing the exact same silver necklace as Yuffie except inside there was a picture of her on the right, and Cloud on the left. Yuffie and her had bought the exact same ones during their journey to fight and kill Sephiroth. Her make-up consisted of light-blue eyeshadow, and clear lip gloss, along with black eyeliner and black mascara.
Vincent had decided on his usual attire, minus the cape. He knew he had to at least look semi-formal. His hair was done in a loose pony-tail.
Cloud wore a pair of black jeans and a dark blue shirt made of silk(yes, silk, I couldn't resist).
Nanaki was wearing the usual--nothing.

Yuffie, earlier that day, had tried to put on a shirt and little shorts with a hole where his tail would go though..but he resisted and she gave up. Anyways, if she did succeed, he knew he would burn them to pieces by the fire on his tail.


Cid happened to be too lazy to change out of what he usually wore. As was Barret.
Vincent sat in the living room on the lazy boy, reading a book while waiting for the others to finish getting ready. Well, waiting for Yuffie and Tifa, that is. As far as he was concerned, girls took way too long to get ready. They had already been waiting an hour and forty minutes, two for Cid and Barret. Nanaki had fallen asleep on the floor out of pure boredom.
Tifa made her way down the stairs. She had told Yuffie to wait at the top, and that she'd be there in just a minute to accompany her down.

"Guys!" Tifa called out, the first one spotting her was Cloud. He practically drooled over her and ran to her side.

"Yes?" he asked, delightfully. Everyone soon after joined the pair.

"Where's that fuckin' brat? Everyone else is already here!" Barret asked, raising his voice on "brat".

"Just a minute! You've gotta see this!" Tifa said while running up the stairs.

Moment later, she walked back down it, holding Yuffie's hand with care.

Everyone looked at Yuffie in surprise of her beauty, while Vincent just stared at her in awe. She is..beautiful, he said to himself.

"Y-yuffie?!" Vincent exclaimed, shock in his voice. He knew not even Lucrecia herself could match the beauty of Yuffie at that moment, not even come close.

The way he's staring at, he MUST like it.. Yuffie thought, grinning to herself, Eat your heart out, Vinnie! "Yes?" she asked innocently.

"N-nothing," Vincent stuttered, taring his gaze away from her.

"Stop the goddamn gawking!" Yuffie snapped, adding in her mind, Only Vinnie can..

"Sorry," all of AVALANCHE said at once, taring their gaze away from Yuffie as Vincent did.

"Let's go, then!" Yuffie said, her tone cheerful as ever.

"Yes, ma'am.." Barret muttered, being bossed around wasn't his thing.

Vincent silently shot a death glare at Barret as they walked out of the house. Yuffie was too happy to notice, though.. And for that, he was thankful.


The AVALANCHE members entered a large building and walked down the main hall, stopping at a ballroom. Many people were aleady inside when they inside. The music; fairly loud, and the dancefloor; filled with people dancing.

This was the pre-party, the formal thing as no one but Yuffie and Tifa knew. The real one was at midnight, at a whole different place. They both had specially picked out clothes for it, and were palnning on telling the others after they got back.

The room was decorated with the fanciest things anyone could think of. Tifa had told Yuffie that they were only going because they got special invitations DEMANDING them to come.


Yuffie looked around and sighed, although this place was big, it got boring after a while. She had snatched all the materia from those who actually brought it--which happened to be the big number of no one.

She spotted Vincent, leaning up against a wall doing absolutely nothing. An idea sprung in her head as she dashed over to him, almost running right into a wall(sorry, I have a little obsession with running into walls..) but stuck out her right foot, flipped up off the wall and landed on her feet right in front of Vincent.

Claps sounded all around her, she winked at Vincent and turned around to the people clapping and bowed. They instantly went back to whatever they were doing and she turned back to Vincent. "Say, you're not doing anything are you?" she asked.

"..No.. Why?" Vincent said, instantly cursing his honesty. He knew she had a plan from the look on her face as she ran over to him. Well, maybe it could be fun.. Vincent thought, instantly throwing the thought away like it was a wrapper off a lump of coal(would have used candy bar, but, you know, those smell good.. I know NO ONE wou would instantly throw it away!).

"Well.." Yuffie said started, flashing a hopeful smile and finished what she was saying quietly, "Dance with me?"

Vincent stayed quiet for a while before Yuffie spoke up again, "Please?"

"Fine, just one dance, though," Vincent stated.

She grabbed Vincent and dragged him to the middle of the dance floor.


Tifa saw this and looked at Cloud, grinning.

"What?" Cloud asked, confusion at the grin. She seemed to be doing a lot lately.

"Dance with me!" she said, grabbing Cloud and not waiting for an answer, dragging him to the middle of the floor, where Vincent and Yuffie were in view. Since it was a slow song, they were dancing quite--close.


Cloud noticed Vincent and Yuffie instantly. They stand out like Light and Dark..considering their outfits.

"Hey, Tifs, that's Vincent and Yuffie! Whoa, and they're dancing quite close..and seem to be enjoying it!" Cloud stated matter-of-factly, with hint of surprise.

"Nah, really? I never noticed that," Tifa said jokingly.

"Liar," Cloud muttered

"It's called sarcasm," Tifa stated, inching closer to him.

Cloud noticed this and got closer to her, their bodies barely touching.


It seemed as thought the song had just began when it ended for Yuffie. She got caught up in his eyes during the whole dance, and, surprisingly, he seemed to be caught up in hers.

Not wanting to part, she gripped him tighter as the next song came on. It just 'happened' to be another slow one.


The party, or pre-party for AVALANCHE seemed to not last long enough. Soon it was over.

Yuffie and Vincent spent the entire time on the dance floor and had to be called three times by Tifa just to get them to go.

Nanaki was at the food stands the whole time, eating the food no one else dared to eat. He couldn't dance, anyways. Having four paws instead of two arms and two legs made him disabled from dancing. Sometimes one of the AVALANCHE members came and talked to him for a bit, and one of the other guests came and talked to him aswell. They had interesting conversations considering the fact that they were wiser and had more of a vocabulary then anyone in AVALANCHE, though he would never tell them that.

Barret and Cid had spent most of the time by argueing about little things they considered to be argueable, though, none of the others would have thought they were.

Tifa spend most of the time getting Cloud on the dance floor to dance with her, but one of time she danced with Cid and once with Barret. She now knew never to dance with either of them again, considering the fact Cid spent most of the time in a conversation staring at her bust and swearing, and Barret just plainly reaked of cologne, he had too much on, him and his attempts to attract the women(can you tell I don't like either of them much, and don't like Cait Sith at all, since I haven't mentioned him once before right now).

Lastly, Cloud spent most of the time trying to find reasons not to dance with Tifa due to the fact his feet hurt from all the dancing with her. If she were a better dancer, then he would have danced more. But he stilled had pains in his feet from the dances with her, she had stepped on his feet.
