*Hello World! Thank you for the reviews! I know it's taken me a while, but I am back! Thank you and I love you all!

-Also, Chaos's voice is in Bold Italics, just to let you know. XD

It was thundering outside of the Shinra Mansion, and everything was quiet, besides the occasional "boom" outside.

Inside, though, was a totally different thing.

Yuffie had caught the great Vincent Valentine naked, nude, bare, stripped…

Heck, in his Birthday Suit!

Her face was as red as his ruby red eyes, and her own body was on fire, especially her face. She stood near his bedroom window, with one leg outside of it, her hands propped up on the window pane. Her hair was slick down her back, her clothes completely soaked, and her face contorted in shock and embarrassment.

"WHA-WHAT THE HELL?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"

Vincent quickly took the towel from around his neck and placed it around his waist. His face had also turned the color of his eyes, and Yuffie was shocked as this was the first time that she ever saw him blush.

"I-I-I…" was all that Yuffie could say. She couldn't help it. She couldn't keep her eyes locked on Vincent's face. It was his body that she couldn't help but stare at. "HEY!" Vincent growled at her, and she jumped, her eyes staring back into those cold crimson orbs.

"I What? Damn it Yuffie, I told you to leave. Gods…" He groaned, sighing afterwards. Who knew she could be such a pain in the ass? Didn't I tell her to leave…? Vincent thought to himself. "Look, little girl, I don't need your ass here, got it?" Vincent icily spoke, sending chills up Yuffie's spine. It only took that one comment to make Yuffie Kisaragi's blood boil. "Little Girl? LITTLE GIRL?! I AIN'T NO LITTLE GIRL, GOT IT?! I AM A FUCKING 21-YEAR OLD WOMAN!" She threw that dagger at him. "Compared to me, yes, you are! Now, LEAVE. I hate repeating myself." Those same eyes and cruel voice bore through Yuffie, but she had to hold her own.

"You bastard…"

Vincent stared at Yuffie, waiting for her to make her exit…but, no…she wouldn't do that…She couldn't. She hated it. Working with Vincent, visiting Vincent, she hated it all. She hated it, because she knew that to him, she was just a friend, a pest to knock on his door whenever she came by to visit. She couldn't help but be attracted to Vincent. She really couldn't.

"YOU OBLIVIOUS DUMBASS! WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?! YOU AREN'T BLIND ARE YOU?! CAN'T YOU SEE IT? WHY IN THE FUCK DO YOU THINK I VISIT YOU, AM ABLE TO WORK WITH YOU?!"

Yuffie screamed and yelled, tears pouring from her eyes. Her own emotions got the better of her. Her anger, her sadness, she was letting them all out. All Vincent could do was stand at the opposite side of the room and stare at her with fury in his eyes. He couldn't stand it any longer. His eyes twitching, he glided across the room towards her.

"What the-What are you doing? PUT ME THE HELL DOWN!"

Vincent had thrown Yuffie over his shoulder, and was walking out of his room making his way down the winding stairway. "PUT ME DOWN, YOU ASSHOLE!" Yuffie screamed, thrashing, hitting and clawing his back, making sure that she left some imprint on him. "You wouldn't get out, so I'm just gonna have to throw you out." Vincent said in a monotone, yet frigid voice. This only gave Yuffie more reason to claw and thrash around harder. His arm clung on to her tightly, not letting her go. She wished that her butt hadn't gotten so big, or she would've been able to have already wormed herself out of Vincent's grasp. "PUT ME DOWN! I SAID…PUT…ME…" Yuffie couldn't help but slow down, stopping her fit all together. Something felt wrong. She didn't have any strength left. It was almost as if all the strength that she had drained out of her in that instant. She slinked across his back, seeing nothing but the floor. She could tell that Vincent was almost at the door of the mansion, and was ready to throw her fat butt right on her ass outside in the rain. Soon, she saw black blotches in her vision, and not too soon afterwards, everything went black.

Nearing the door, Vincent, who had completely ignored Yuffie's tantrum, was about to throw her out, until he noticed that her body was completely limp. "Quit with the act." Vincent said immediately, seeing this as a way for her to escape free. She didn't respond…

"Yuffie." Vincent said her name again, but there was only silence. "Shit."

Sighing and regretful, Vincent quickly hiked up the stairs, and into his bedroom. Before laying her down, he noticed that she was running a fever. She was panting, her breathing rapid, and she was totally flushed. He knew that he had to get her out of her soaked clothes, or she would get worse. Sighing, he knew the inevitable, so he went ahead and stripped her. After taking off her shirt and shorts, he slightly blushed as he saw an almost naked Yuffie lying dead in front of him. She was wearing matching black underwear with intricate purple lace.

Oh, look. Vincent Valentine really is a pervert!

Oh, shut up Chaos.

What? You're the one looking at her. Now, I have got to admit, that's one fine body I'd love to have a taste of!

Shut it, you vile—

Look, I don't see why you're pissed at her. You two are like a husband and wife, bickering. I won't lie, it's kind of amusing to see you two at it.

Why you?! And what on earth are you talking about?! No, we aren't!

Sure, YOU say that. I'm not blind though. Now, about little Miss Fine Ass over here with her scrumptious…

Will you just SHUT UP?!

Wow, you are hopeless. Oh, well…

Finally having some quiet, Vincent continued. Sometimes, he couldn't believe the times when Chaos would jump into his thoughts, and the things he said…Ugh. Vincent then grabbed one of his tank tops from his drawer and slid it on Yuffie, careful of not waking her. Her hair did get in the way, as his fingers got caught in it, but he did get the job done. He had already dressed himself into a pair of black sweatpants and also a black tank top. Finishing, he sighed, covering her up, and left to go to the bathroom. He grabbed a little bowl nearby on the shelf, filled it with cold water, and a cloth, and immediately came back to a bed-ridden Yuffie. He grunted at the pained, fever-induced expression on her face, and got to work.

It was a couple of minutes until he was finished wiping all the sweat that accumulated. Taking the cloth, he carefully folded it, dipped it in a new bowl of clean icy water, after wringing it out, and laid it on her forehead.

Geez, and here I'm taking care of her. She should've stayed home…Vincent thought, carefully watching the sleeping girl. He then looked outside. It was still pouring and lightning lit the sky. Looking back at Yuffie with a whole-hearted sigh, He couldn't help but notice how…grown up Yuffie looked. He remembered a couple years back how she was so small. She was simply a teenager, a zealous one at that. He remembered how even Reno and the other men had joked that she was flat as a board. Yet…several years passed…and this is what she looked like. She even let her hair grow out. Vincent knew how much she hated having her hair long, and was surprised that she hadn't cut it. Her jet black locks were longer than his own dark tresses. He reached out and took a long lock of her hair, feeling it silky texture.

Soon, in that instant, it was then that Yuffie's eyes seemed to have peeled open. Of course, she felt weak, but not too much that she couldn't speak or move. She noticed a pale figure right beside her, her vision still foggy. Out then was a voice that she could clearly recognize. It was that same sexy voice that could piss her off in an instant, but sent shivers down her spine (the good ones).

"Hmmm. So the princess decides to wake up from her fever? I thought the Great Single White Rose of Wutai didn't get sick…Guess I was wrong…"
