Kiss Me

"Kiss me."

Rufus ShinRa stared at Tifa Lockheart in disbelief as they stood alone in her bar. Did he just hear her correctly?

"What?"

"You heard me." She sauntered over to him and bit her lip as she stood on tiptoes and put her arms around his neck. He had a distinct feeling that she as new to this than he was.

"Kiss me," she said again.

Rufus sighed and looked down into her face. It wasn't everyday he got an offer to lock lips a beautiful woman.

"Look I know you're feeling a little insecure right now because of your friend-"

"Rufus, dammit, I've never had a boyfriend in my life, let alone a husband. Shiva knows I've wanted one, but no relationships equals no kissing. I'd like to know what that's like before I turn into an old woman."

"What about Cloud?"

She wrinkled her nose. "How many years have I been waiting for that train? Enough said. Now shut up and kiss me."

Rufus gave a shrug. "Well, here goes."

He lowered his head slowly, putting his hands to her back and opening his mouth slightly. Rufus wasn't exactly a pro at this either. Tifa shut her eyes first as she straightened herself a little taller so she could reach his lips. He felt a tingly sensation as their mouths finally touched. He felt dizzy as she tightened her grip around his shoulders. It felt like she was melting into his embrace. One of her hands slowly smoothed its way up the back of his neck into his hair, leaving goosebumps in its wake.

Moments later, they broke apart and he opened his icy blues to see her mahogany eyes staring back. She smiled as she blinked slowly, coming down from her tiptoes. Rufus felt strangely warmed as he looked down at her.

"Well?" He asked gruffly.

"Thank you," she whispered. They slowly let go and stood for a few awkward moments before Rufus broke the silence.

"Well, anyway, here's the high priority letter I'd like Cloud to deliver." He said, pulling an envelope out of his jacket pocket.

"Oh, yes. Of course."

Rufus had reached the door before turning back to her. "Oh, and congratulate your friend Yuffie on her marriage. Now you can tell her you've kissed someone."

The barmaid smiled before nodding. "I will."
