Yes! I have no writersblock to interfere with this or the next chapter! I now where I'm going with this story! Kinda... Thank you for the reviews I'm almost to 70! It's absolutely amazing! And because I'm in such a wonderful mood I shall write responses to your reviews =D Why? 'Cuz I feel like it.
Neko-Yuff16: Lol! I know! To me it just seems appropriate, I think Vincent SHOULD like puppies and chocolate. Though that might have something to do with puppies and chocolate being two of my favorite thing XD
Dragon Girl323: It's is cute isn't it =] And PMSing XD lol, I hear that a lot. I'm so happy you think this story is getting better! I wasn't sure whether I was going to far or not. Hopefully this chapter won't destroy the betterness XD
Emri: Hi again =D A picture would've rocked. But you're your toughest critic right? I know I'm always hard on my art (I don't think I'm too good either XD) In fact I believe that one-shot was inspired by a pic I drew but I can't really remember... If you really want to see Cloud back off of Vincent (if only for a bit) I think you'll like this chap. That was sweet of Tifa wasn't it =]. And I agree, I think he likes being Tifa too, if only for the chocolate XD lol.
Mel: Vincent with an army of puppies?! In a town made of chocolate?!Too Cute! XD I can't get that out of my head either now! I think that's a good thing =D
Necromancer Aiko666: New reviewer =D love your name by the way! And you just reviewed today so hope this is soon enough for you XD
And I apologize beforehand for my cruelty to Cloud XD
"And then I tripped over Red and fell flat on my face!" Tifa started laughing and paused to eat more ice cream.
Vincent grinned and shoved another spoonful of the chocolatey goodness into him mouth while petting his new puppy. They had been sharing stories and eating ice cream for the past forty-five minutes and surprisingly, no one had caught them yet. Tifa was a very interesting person who had many pleasant stories to tell. Many of them including Cloud and sappiness, both which he didn't care too much about, but Tifa seemed to be enjoying herself so he didn't interrupt.
"So what about you? Anything interesting happen to you when you were a Turk?"
"Mm... not really. If there was anything I can't remember it now."
"Oh," Tifa tried to hide her disappointment. She had been looking forward to learning something knew about Vincent.
"Though there was this one time I went to the Gold Saucer with Lucrecia and some friends of mine. Lucrecia and I ended up in that play, you know, at the Event Square? Yeah, that had been pretty degrading..."
Tifa laughed again and looked at his puppy, "Do you have a name for him yet?"
"It think I'll name him... Nightmare."
Tifa rolled her eyes, Typical Vincent. "How about something a bit less morbid?"
Vincent frowned, "What, you have something against Nightmare?"
"Er... no."
"Good."
Tifa sighed, well it WAS his dog.
Vincent got up and threw the empty ice cream box (What do you call it? A carton?) away. "We should get going. We're lucky nobody walked in on us."
"Alright, how about we hang out later?"
Vincent thought about it for a moment, his cramps weren't really bothering him anymore... "Sure."
"What time, seven?
"Yeah."
"Okay, well see you later then!"
-------------------
Cloud was sitting on his bed, thinking about Tifa and Vincent again when he heard someone coming down the hall, Maybe it's Tifa... He got up and looked out into the hall and saw Tifa with a puppy he had never seen before. He didn't know Tifa had a puppy...
"Tifa."
She looked up at him and stopped, "....Yeah?"
"Where did you get that dog?"
"Vincent gave him to me."
Cloud felt his eye twitch, VINCENT gave TIFA a puppy?! There is definitely something going on here. I didn't even know Tifa liked puppies!
"And why did he give you a puppy?"
"Because he knows I like puppies."
"And how did he know you like puppies?" Cloud narrowed his eyes suspiciously. "I don't know, maybe he heard me talk about them or something."
"So he took time to get you one? Vincent doesn't seem like that kind of guy. Unless, of course, you're special or something. Like, Lucrecia?"
"Are you implying something?"
"I'm not implying anything. I just want to know what's going on."
Tifa glared at him and stormed off. He was about to go back into his room when he heard a growl near his feet. Looking down, he saw Tifa's puppy.
"Go away mutt."
It stayed put.
"I said scram!" He kicked it in the chest lightly. It growled again and attacked his offensive foot.
"AH! Get away from me you freakin' dog!" He shook his foot and tried to get it off but it refused to let go.
"No! Someone help me! This thing's rabid!"
Vincent walked down the hall and gave him a strange look.
"Don't just stand there! It's trying to kill me!"
Vincent looked like he was trying not to laugh and clapped his hands twice, "Nightmare! Come here boy!"
The dog stopped instantly and jumped into Vincent's open arms. Vincent smirked and continued his walk down the hall, waving back to Cloud before turning at the corner.
Cloud looked down at his boot, it had been loyal throughout all his journeys and it was now torn and shredded with bite marks all over it.
"That dog is evil, I swear..."
-------------------
Tifa was once again in her room, except now she had Nightmare with her. He was staring at her very strangely at the moment, she had a feeling he could sense her conversation with the demons.
'It's practically a date.'
No it's not. We're just going out.
Chaos snickered, ''Going out?' Like that sounds any better.'
Er, that's not what I meant!
'Riiight...'
Tifa sat down on the floor and scratched Nightmare behind his ears. "What you did to Cloud was pretty mean." He licked her hand. "Aww... you're so cute. I guess I can forgive you. He was bothering Vincent a little too much, huh?" Nightmare barked in agreement. "Do you want to come with us tonight?"
'Of course he does!'
I think Vincent would want him too.
I'm still trying to get over the fact that Vincent was acting, dare I say it, happy today!
'No kidding Hellmasker, he's been depressed so often I can't even remember the last time he enjoyed himself.'
'He's opening up to you Tifa.'
Hmm... He is isn't he? I'll just have to make him open up some more then. When that happens I'll consider attempting to love him. She stood and started preparing for the outing. Ignoring Chaos and the others talk about her relationship with Vincent.
'I think she's already 'considered' loving Vincent.'
'I think she's already starting to fall for him.'
Next chapter: Vincent and Tifa's -cough-date-cough- outing! I'm not sure how that's gonna turn out (and I'm kinda scared XD) but we'll see. It'll probably be... er..... interesting =P
And I'm sorry again for being mean to Cloud (unless, of course, you thought he deserved it XD) But he was asking for it, lol.
Please review =]
