Reno's Life: Chp 27

"So then, I told Cloud that-"

"Wait a moment, Tifa. Look at that!"

"Why are you whispering, Elen-? Oh, that is so cute!"

"I know!"

"Should we wake them?"

"Nah, let them sleep"

"Actually, I have a better idea…"

"Wait…are you really going to…?"

"Shhh! Yes. Hopefully, it won't wake Reno…"

"Wake Reno? Are you talking about the same Reno that slept through a fireworks show when he had front row seats?"

"Guess you're right. But let's not wake Marlene, then"

"Okay, then. Only take a couple of photos then put the camera away! I want a copy of those photos for blackmail and I don't want Reno destroying the camera"

"Ha! Okay, only a quick couple of shots…"

"Oh no! Marlene's waking up! Hurry!"

"Got 'em!"

Marlene climbed off of Reno, bounced onto the floor, and walked sleepily over to Tifa.

"Hi, Tifa…"

"Hello, Marlene! Did you have fun?"

"Uh huh! Isn't he pretty?"

"Yes, he is! You did a good job"

"Thanks!"

"Why don't you go upstairs and change into your pajamas to get ready for bed, okay?"

"Alright!"

Marlene scampered upstairs; away from a snickering Elena and Tifa. A few seconds later, Reno sat up and yawned.

"Oh, you're back, yo", he said groggily. "Have a good time?"

"Um…yeah", Elena said with a giggle.

Reno stretched and rubbed his eyes. Elena laughed and Tifa sighed.

"Aw…He smudged the makeup…", said Tifa.

The red-headed Turk froze, then looked down at his makeup-stained hands. He sprang off of the couch and raced to a mirror.

"What the-"

"You look really pretty, Reno!", Elena commented.

At first, Reno looked furious, but then he calmed himself and smiled at Tifa and Elena.

"Well, I'm glad you had a good time, but I have to go see a little girl named Marlene, because now, apparently, I'm a big girl!", he said in an eerily calm voice while heading towards the stairs.

No longer able to contain their laughter, the two young women fell onto the floor in a big fit of laughter.

Never again will Reno fall asleep while babysitting.
