"Square One"
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Except a new schnexy Darth Vader watch and a sexy belt too. Ooooh yeah..I don't own Rude's one sentence either. That's still Ashbury.
Author's Note: So..This happens..if you get the date with Aeris in the game. If you get the date with Tifa, you'll make Rude very, very sad. He'll start stealing MORE of Ashbury's lyrics. And we don't want that. –cough-
And you know what. I love Trueborn, Nando, and Cueball. )
I really do. Your reviews make me happy, which make me write more for you guys! So let's all say yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
Now let's all say, Dance, dance, dance, dance, dancedancedancedance, HOORAH!
See?
That's how much I love you guys.
I mean. I love everyone else who reviews. But they're special. You could become special too...if you review most of my chapters and make me happy. )

Keystones, Gondolas, & Her
Well. No more vacation. I actually did something too besides sitting around the office. I think Tseng saw how boring it was for me, and told me to pilot a helicopter for some mission he was gonna be on. I think Reeve was gonna give him the Keystone to the Temple of the Ancients. On the way to Gold Saucer, he figured Reno and Elena could argue while we were gone.Tseng let me wander around the amusement park until he called me.
See. Avalanche doesn't know that Reeve's, or Cait Sith's, a spy.Yet.So I wandered around. They were showing that crappy play tonight. But it'd be different because a couple would get to play as two of the main characters.Whatever.I just sat there thinking about what to do there to pass the time because I sure as hell, wasn't about to stay here and watch this play.
Then, I see the Ancient and the Asshole come in, and apparently they were the two who were gonna be in the play. I wasn't about to watch them just to pass time, so I left and found myself in Wonder Square.
The place with that Mog game. I swear to God. That game is just random. You give the mog kupo nuts...to fly..and have a bunch of babies.
I went into the room with the Mog game and glanced around at the games for a moment, stopping at the fighting game. The one where...you fight.Yeah.Doesn't matter. It was who was playing it...it was who was jabbing the buttons with..extreme anger and frustration.
She was winning though. I walked over to the submarine game and leaned on it, watching Lockheart..beat those poor buttons. I mean...she was into it until finally she lost.
After that, she actually did notice me there. I swear she just has a mastered...mask she can put on whenever she has to. Before she noticed me, she was mad. Or...sad. I dunno.But she wasn't the sweet, innocent girl before she noticed me. I knew though. She liked him. So did Aeris, but Aeris..was always with him. I bet he doesn't have a clue about what Tifa feels for him. She doesn't need him. Then again, I'm not saying that I'm the one. I'm the last one she needs.
But here I was.
"So we meet again."
"We do."
"What are you doing here?"
Why was I here? Oh right.Tseng.Keystone.Temple thing.
"Nothing."
"Liar."
"Well, aren't you supposed to be saving the world from a mad man who wants to wipe out the entire human existence?"
"..The Ropeway's not working."
"That's nice. So why aren't you with the rest of them?"
"They're asleep."
"Not all of them."
So..she went quiet for awhile before walking past me. I followed her.
"Obviously not."
"Why are you up?"
"Couldn't sleep."
"Liar."
"How do you know that?"
She went the station and stopped in the middle of the room, looking at the other places. There was some worker who called out, "Tonight's Enchantment Night! Attraction's Are Free! You two love birds should try the Gondola ride!" And then she grabbed my hand, dragging me to the said Gondola.
"What are you doing?"
"I want free things. And apparently you're my new love bird."
"Shut up."
I checked my watch as she took me into the lift.
"So..again, why are you really out here?"
"..No reason."
She had looked back to another Gondola behind us. Two people were entering it, and it happened to be them. They were pretty far though, but it's hard not to miss his hair and her dress.Anyways, there was silence for the next few moments. She was really deep in thought for those moments. I, myself, started looking out the windows. From there, the park was actually pretty spiffy with their shiny lights and bright things.
"Turks just don't show up at Gold Saucer for the hell of it."
"No. We don't."
"Why are you here then?"
"For the hell of it. You're really persistent, aren't you?"
"Maybe.So..do you come here on your free time?"
"No."
"What do you do?"
"I drink and write."
"You write..?"
"Things."
"Like?"
Things like my days with or without you. Things like how I should get money out of Reno for a TV. Things like how Elena talks alot.
"Just things."
"Just things."
"...mhm."
"You're no fun."
"I'm hurt."
"No you're not."
"No. But you are."
So..I had to get her to talk about him. She was obviously pining over him.
"What makes you think that?"
"Watching them. You wish you were there."
She went quiet for the second time tonight.
"I'm undone."
She looked sad, and that sweet look on her face came back.
"But it's not everyday you get to sit in one of these things with your enemy talking about this and that."
"And I thought I was a friend."
"Far from it."
"So it is.."
Silence, silence..Ladeda.
"What color are you eyes, Rude?"
"...nothing special."
"Then let me see."
The ride ended and I got up before I said anything else. She followed me outside this time to Station Square.Now..my eyes are...well, yeah maybe they are special. They were to my Mom. My Mom liked them. I haven't seen anybody with eyes like mine, but...I just didn't like showing them.
"Rude."
"Tifa."
"Fine. Be that way."
"I will."
"You're mean."
"I'm a Turk."
"You don't have to be. You don't act like Reno. Or Tseng."
"Your point?"
"You should quit..And go write."
"..Write?"
"Or drink."
"True, but then I wouldn't run into you like this."
"You won't miss me."
"Yeah I will. More than you'll think."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
My cell rang.
"Another time."
And so that night was it. I picked up Tseng, and went back to Shin-Ra to get Elena. They were gonna go search this Temple. Heidegger told Reno and I to go, but Tseng insisted that we wouldn't know anything about the Temple.Tseng decided to take Elena and make her a giddy little frickin' school girl.
But I atleast got to spend time with her.Yeah.I got butterflies again. Bad Rude. Very, very bad.
Well. I wrote something. A whole.
Sentence:
"Love is a fire, burning like a brutal desire."
And..I'm tired. That may just...stay a sentence. With no point.
Rude.
