Hi! Whew, so much work… I finished an entire chapter yesterday, to me, that's a lot of work. Especially when I've got no ideas whatsoever. But I really appreciate the reviews =) =)

This chapter is mainly dialogue, for the ending of this chapter and for Yuffie's small comments.

Naughty Naughty.

"So, Tifa. What do you think about Vinnie-boy?" Only murmuring to ensure that they could not be heard.

"He's… a good friend."

"Only?"

"Yeah, only."

"Are you sure? Because I would totally back off if you want."

"Yuffie!" Almost as if you could see him, they could feel Vincent and Nanaki shift their eyes in their direction, raising eyebrows the whole way. "I mean, Yuffie. I'm sure. Friends only"

"Good. Because I was lying. He is so hot I would never have completely backed off" Wink wink. Laughter trembled the tent causing it to collapse but that only ushered their giggles and snickers more.

After Vincent and Nanaki had settled into their beds, Yuffie finally began talking to Tifa seriously. And loudly.

"Vincent is… attractive." Even though they were virtually alone, Tifa was still shy.

"Attractive? Attractive?! For god's sake!! He's is totally a TDH!! Tall, dark and hot!!! With the high cheekbones, thin lips and mesmerizing eyes! You can't tell me that he's just 'attractive'!"

"Fine! He's positively gorgeous! And yes, yes he is the perfect type of guy; tall, dark and handsome. Also, yes, I will admit he's got the most…" A small glitter embedded itself in Tifa's eyes as she sighed. "Brilliant eyes. And holy shit, his hair is heavenly. And, and! –he smells unbelievable…"

"You smelled him? What'd you do? Go up to him and sniff the poor guy?"

"No! We just… were close at certain points of this journey."

"And you said you were only friends."

"We are!"

"What ever, Tif. Hey, do remember the last time we ever got to talk like this?"

"… yeah. After Cloud."

"… Tiffy, don't bum this out. The past is the past. You couldn't do anything about it."

"Yeah… I know."

"Hey, can I ask you something?"

"You ask me it but I can't guarantee I'll answer it." The older woman was never herself when Yuffie was around. So much more carefree.

"Haha, deal. You said that you guys are on a mission to reincarnate Lucretia. Why not do it with Cloud too?"

"…"

"Tif?"

"I can't say it hasn't crossed my mind. But the thing is, he wanted to die to be with… Aeris." Tears were cracking her voice as she uttered her reasons. "While Lucretia was killed. Against her will. I'm sure Cloud's happy where he is."

"…But isn't there a chance he isn't?"

"I-I don't want to talk about this anymore."

"Okay. Okay. Hey, let's talk about your last visit. You were on the verge of tears for what? –the whole time you were here." The ninja spoke in a neutral tone, not monotone, but neutral.

"Haha, yeah I know. But I wasn't depressed the whole time. I began to loosen up at The Joint." Loosen up, open up. Same thing.

"Oh yeah. That club was the bomb. But I wouldn't say loosen up as much as drunk."

"I was not!"

"D-R-U-N-K! I'm saying you were DER-RU-" A pillow smacked Yuffie flat in the face. Shutting her up gratefully.

"Not drunk. But that guy was all over you, you slut, you." The Zaghan (is that how you spell it?) fighter winked and pointed at Yuffie.

"Clayton? He was hot. Of course he was all over me. I looked hot that night too."

"Hey, so who's hotter? Vince or Clayton?"

"Hmmm, that's a toughy. But I'd have to go with Clayton, he was an awesome kisser. But… if I was to kiss Vince… I think I'd say Vince would be a better kisser, he just looks it."

Sigh. "…"

"What's up, Tif?"

"It's… just… okay, secrets. My next words will be your ears only, no one else. Pinky swear." Sticking out her pinky, Tifa looked at Yuffie intently.

"Pinky swear," Looping her bitten nailed finger around Tifa's neatly clipped one. "Now spill."

"Okay, there was this time where I was crying in the Inn. And Vince was ever so sweet to hold me until I finished crying."

"Awww! Screw Clayton-"

"I sure hope you didn't."

"Let me finish my sentences, woman! Screw Clayton, Vinnie is totally more boyfriend material. Or one-night stand. Either one, I'll take it."

"Hahaha, speak for yourself! Why don't you let me finish my confession before you go off blabbing about your sex life."

"Fine. Fine. But for the record, I didn't."

"Good, you could do better. Well, anyways, I fell asleep with him holding me then yesterday, I fell asleep in his bed with him too. But after that first time, I'd been having this reoccurring dream."

"Something sweaty or something nice?"

"Bit of both."

"Oh, you naughty child."

"I'm older than you!"

"Well I'm smarter than you!"

"Spell encyclopedia then!"

"… Shut up, Tif."

"Anyways! The dream starts off with me under this tree, in this beautiful forest. It's the middle of the night and I hear this snap. I start freaking out a calling for the thing to come out."

"Uh huh." Seemed now that Tifa had conquered Yuffie's complete attention. They sat on top of their bed, Tifa at the head facing Yuffie who was near the foot of the bunk.

"Then this huge mutated Cloud comes out and starts saying all this weird stuff to me. I couldn't make out what he was saying but he took out his sword and I try to run or scream but nothing would happen. I couldn't scream or move!"

"Then?"

"I cover my head but Cloud continued slashing at me with his sword, I could literally feel his blade chewing my skin. Right after it starts, it stops. I turn around and Vince is standing there, he walks to me and just holds me for awhile."

"Yeah…?"

"Then…"

"Then! Then!"

"He kisses me." The second the words left my mouth a loud yelp from Nanaki sounded. The girls turned to face him but only saw Nanaki semi-conscious and quickly slipping back into a deep slumber.

"Keep going."

"Uh… well we keep kissing and it gets… gets…"

"Hotter? And hotter? Until it burns like a fiery core!" The childish shinobi spoke in a British accent and threw her hands in the air for greater effect.

"Shh! Yuffie! Not so loud!"

"Well tell me what happens then!!"

"Okay. It… escalates but! –I wake up before anything is stripped."

"Not in my imagination."

"Ew! Yuffie!"

"Hahaha!"

"But it's just a dream, right? Like it's nothing big?"

"Yeah. Totally."

"Hmm…"

"What now, Tif? And you dare call me conceited."

"Should I really be listening to a little girl who can't even spell encyclopedia?"

"Hey! Shut up!!"

"Hahaha! Make me!!" Another pillow fight began but ending due to lack of energy. The two friends finally fell asleep feeling content from their girl talk but unknown to them, Vincent was wide-awake.
