The barmaid frantically ran around setting up Christmas decorations for the yearly party at Seventh Heaven, she looked over her shoulder at the tall black haired man with a smile he had been unable to make it last time surprising her during the night as she slept but this time he was here.
"What are you smiling about Tifa?" the man asked as he walked over carrying a box of decorations, Tifa continued to watch saying nothing as the man placed the box down "That's the last box, what else do you need me to do?"
"How about you go and get changed ready for the party?" Tifa replied "I got some stuff out for you and placed them on our bed earlier, I'm sure you won't have an issues wearing them will you Vincent?" Vincent looked over as his blood seemed to run cold, the smile on Tifa's face didn't seem to match her words or tone as the man slowly backed away heading upstairs he had seen that misleading smile before and knew better than to try and escape his fate.

"So, I have to ask" a spikey haired blonde began as he looked Vincent over, the two sat at the end of the bar "What's with the outfit?" Vincent tilted his head in the direction of Tifa who was hugging and greeting people at the door, she had gotten changed into a red miss Santa outfit a red top hugged her ample chest with a white fur trim, her usual black skirt had been replaced with a red skirt with white fur trim.
"Say no more" Cloud said as he patted his friends shoulder, Tifa's choice of clothing for Vincent felt more like a punishment than a gift, he had been made to wear a brown jumper a red nose had been strapped to his face with reindeer antlers to finish off the look.
As the two chatted Vincent felt himself groan as a small girl hopped over, she looked the man over as he saw her failing to keep a straight face as she waved over her prankster in crime the two girl's looked him over as they both began to burst into laughter.
"Vincent the red nose reindeer" Yuffie began to sing "Had a very shiny nose, and if you ever saw it, you'd even say it glows".
"It's quite foggy out tonight" Jessie said with a amused grin "Will you be guiding Tifa's sleigh?" The two girls burst into laughter as they took off seeing Vincent stand up, Tifa looked over with a smile as Vincent quickly sat down the door swung open as the next guest arrived Tifa turned with a smile seeing her friend Aerith entering she closed the door as she took her coat off.
"Wow, looking good" Tifa said with a smile as Aerith twirled with a small laugh, she wore a green top with a matching skirt bells hanging off the ends, she had hooked rubber elf ears and a green hat.
"Helper Elf Aerith reporting for duty Tifa Claus" Aerith said with a chuckle as the two hugged once more, as they broke apart the door opened once more as the final guests arrived a tall man in a suit with sunglasses walked in followed by a red haired man hit shirt slightly unbuttoned as he smiled.
"Thanks for the invite" Reno said as he looked around "It's been a while since I entered this place, glad to see nothing's changed at least we could make it this time no paperwork over a tree being illegally cut down this year". Vincent looked at Cloud confused as the blonde nearly choked on his drink, Tifa smiled as she looked around seeing her friends all together in one place she went behind the bar as she began lining drinks up along with a few snacks.
"Alright everyone, let's get this party in full swing" she called out as everyone cheered their approval.

Jessie sat at the table her glass held in her hand as she watched the barmaid milling around chatting with people as she looked down seeing a bowl of peanuts on the table before her eyes darted back to the barmaid with a smirk, carefully she reached down to grab a peanut from the bowl feeling her fingertips press on the hard wood of the table looking confused she turned to see a grinning ninja watching her the bowl of peanuts sat in front of her.
"Whash your plan?" she asked her words slurred a little as the other woman smirked leaning in whispering as the two began to giggle, Yuffie passing the peanuts back "We'll take turnsh, whoever lands it firsht wins". Jessie nodded drunkenly as she picked up a peanut placing her glass down she laid the peanut on her empty palm as she took aim, with a mischievous smirk she flicked the peanut in the direction of the barmaid as it bounced off the other woman's arm she looked over as the two trouble makers left.
"Something wrong?" Cid asked his Scottish accent as thick as usual, Tifa shook her head as she rubbed her arm unsure what had happened. Jessie and Yuffie watched from their new vantage point as they both giggled Yuffie slipped her hand in her pocket as she showed more ammo as the two split up moving to different locations.
"If you hate it so much why not just take it off?" Reno asked as he drained his drink reaching for another bottle as he sat with Rude, Cloud and Vincent "What's the worst that could happen?"
"It's safe to assume you have never dealt with an angry Tifa?" Cloud responded as the red head looked over toward the barmaid now chatting with Barret and Aerith before he turned back toward the group who all nodded.
"Stay still" came Yuffie's voice as she rested a peanut carefully on Rude's shoulder who looked confused, taking aim she flicked the peanut in the direction of the barmaid catching her side Tifa looked over at the boys as Yuffie snuck away tagging Jessie as the other woman moved to her new position.

"Where did it go?" Tifa asked as she rummaged around behind the bar, she had remembered the last Christmas party when a certain drunk ninja had managed to find mistletoe, this time she had hid it better but something told her that hadn't worked out too well as she looked up seeing the culprit drunk watching her.
"Lose something?" she said with a drunken smirk as Tifa stood up looking at her "You should hide things better, I am still the great ninja Yuffie drunk or not". Without another word the drunk girl skipped away to the corner of the bar pestering Barret and Cloud, Tifa watched with suspicion just what had that sneaky pain done with it this time?
"There she is" a voice came from the other side of the bar as she turned to see Aerith watching her, her eyes slightly glazed from drink "Little mish top heavy, a little birdie gave me the besht gift ever". Tifa looked at her confused as the drunken girl giggled walking away a small white and green flower held in her hand as Tifa sighed, why are all her friends crazy when they have alcohol?
"Jesshie" Aerith said as she approached the brunette who sat at a table ready to take her next shot, she turned to see the drunken girl stumbling her way "I've been wanting to tell you shomething for a while now. You are hot". Jessie felt a blush creep up her cheeks as Aerith smirked revealing the mistletoe she had been gifted, holding it over Jessie's head as she leaned in pressing her lips to the other girl's Reno and Barret wolf whistled, Yuffie cheered, Tifa sighed, Cloud and Vincent looked away, Cid and Rude continued to drink pretending not to see.
After what felt like five minutes Aerith eventually came up for air as she smiled walking off to find another victim, Jessie sat still in her stool as she tried to process what had just happened pressing her fingers to her lips she smiled remembering the soft feeling.
"An unexpected yet not unwelcome delight" she muttered to herself as she got up swapping positions ready to take her shot, as she reached her new spot she was joined by a red head who smirked.
"Little miss popular" Reno said as Jessie ignored him "Never would have expected you'd let anyone kiss you so unexpectedly". Jessie ignored him as she took aim, Reno looked on confused as he watched wondering what the girl was up to with a flick of the finger Jessie watched the peanut soar across the room landing between Tifa's ample chest.
"Yes, I win" Jessie said as she quickly grabbed a handful of peanuts "Here hold these for me". Quickly she shoved the remaining ammo into the red heads hands as she slunk off in search of Yuffie, Tifa looked down as she removed the peanut from her top as she looked up glaring at the troublemakers unexpected scapegoat as she stomped over.

As the party began to wind down Tifa sat in a booth leaning her back against Vincent's chest who sat there playing with her hair, the two watched as Cid and Barret attempted to hold back a drunken Yuffie who was yelling at Rude about releasing the sunglasses goblins she was convinced lived in his jacket. Reno laid unconscious in a corner tied up with tinsel, a star shoved into his mouth as Cloud sat next to him wondering what had possessed him to flick peanuts at Tifa.
In the other corner sat Jessie her head resting on the side of the booth she had fallen asleep in, asleep with her head in the other woman's lap was a drunken Aerith who seemed to be smiling in her sleep.
"Well it was a little chaotic at times but you know what?" Tifa said as she smiled leaning up kissing Vincent's cheek "It wouldn't be our party without a little madness".
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
Well it wouldn't be a Final fantasy party without some craziness now would it? Hope you all enjoyed the return of Drunk Yuffie with the addition of her prankster in crime and Drunk Aerith. Poor Reno but hey the guy is always in the wrong place at the right time, also when will they learn to stop letting Yuffie drink? Poor Rude, his sunglasses goblins weren't too shook up
