'Well…this is it…'Tifa thought as she put the finishing touches on her wedding dress.
"Stop worrying Tifa, you'll be just fine…" Yuffie said as she adjusted her red bridesmaid dress, "You know… I saw Cloud… he looks really handsome."
"Don't get any ideas." Tifa said as she nudged the ninja playfully.
There was a knock on the door followed by someone saying, "Ladies! We start in two minuetes!"
"Here goes…." Tifa said as she gulped.
Her father walked up to her, holding his arm out for her to take, "Shall we go?"
She nodded.
The doors opened. She stood, staring at all of the eyes fixed on her. She looked over to Marlene and nodded. The flower girl skipped happily and threw rose petals on the aisle.
She started walking. Brown eyes locked with Mako infused cerulean ones. He smiled. Her father stepped back and watched and Cloud lifted the veil.
"We are gathered here today, to unite these two people in holy matrimony…."
(A/N: I think everyone knows how a wedding goes….so I'll skip some of it)
"Who has the rings?"
Cloud looked at the ring bearer. Denzel nodded and stepped forward, handing the rings to Cloud.
-------------------------
"Do you, Cloud Strife, Take Tifa Lockheart to be you lawfully wedded wife?"
"I Do."
"And do you Tifa Lockheart, Take Cloud Strife to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I Do."
--------------------------
"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
Their lips inched closer and everyone cheered.
"LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED! WHOOO!" an over-enthusiastic Reno yelled, and waved towards the limo waiting for them.
Cloud picked Tifa up and carried her to the limo.
Everyone arrived at the reception hall and got the party started. It was a little after six.
A little while into the party, The DJ spoke into the microphone, "Ladies and Gentleman, Boy do we have a treat for you! Please welcome the lovely, brand-new Mrs. Strife!"
Everyone cheered as she walked over and picked up the mike. She locked eyes with Cloud. Closing them, she started to sway with the slow tempo of the music and started,
"Fly me to the moon,
And let me play among the stars,
Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars"
She opened her eyes and looked around at the others.
"In other words, hold my hand,
In other words, darling, kiss me
Fill my heart with song,
And let me sing forever more,
You are all I long for,
All I worship,
And adore"
She glanced at Cloud, and watching his blue mako eyes softening.
"In other words,
Please be true,
In other words,
I love you…"
She pointed at Cloud and smiled.
"Fly me to the moon,
And let me play among the stars,
Let me see what spring is like on,
Jupiter and Mars"
He started to walk over, his blue eyes watching intently.
"In other words, hold my hand,
In other words, daring, kiss me,
Fill my heart with song,
And let me sing forever more,
You are all I long for,
All I worship,
And adore"
He stepped out onto the dance floor and offered his hand.
"In other words,
Please be true,
In other words,
I love you…"
She strode over to him.
"Only you,
Only you,
Fill my heart with song,
And let me sing forever more,
You are all I long for,
All I worship,
And adore"
They started to dance.
"In other words,
Please be true,
In other words,
I love you…"
She finished with her eyes closed. Opening them slowly as the music died out, the newlyweds kissed.
"Awwwww, isn't that sweet folks! Well, it's eleven o' clock, so everyone out. It's time to send the newlyweds off on their honeymoon!" The DJ said over the mike.
She whispered in Cloud's ear, "So…where exactly is our honeymoon?"
"Why, you'll just have to find out when we get there…" He said as he grinned and picked her up, carrying her to his bike.
Everyone waved to the newlyweds as they drove off.
She leaned forward, "Where are we going?"
"We're almost there…"
He sped up more.
Looking around, she was amazed, "I…is this….Mideel?"
He nodded.
"I thought this place was destroyed?"
"They rebuilt it." He paused, "And if you'll follow me mi'lady, we'll see the other side of this town….from our hotel suite…." He finished, bowing slightly and taking her to the hotel.
After a few rounds of passionate love-making, the two fell asleep, wrapped in each other's arms. But not before saying…
"Goodnight….Mr. Strife…" Tifa said as she giggled breathlessly.
He leaned over and kissed her, "Goodnight, Mrs. Strife…."
She snuggled closer to him and whispered, "I love you."
He whispered back, "I love you too…"
