Okay so

I realize I was being a giant asshole

I apologize

And sorry for the long wait I have been HELLA busy yo!

Cloud-Zen: yeah I'm trying to work this out myself after this chapter I'm going to try to give everyone back ground information on Tifa. I can say now that the way she is with her father is like a totally different person from the way she is once she feels comfortable. Sorry it's so confusing. :/ I'll try to do better!

Silver-FireLizard: I'm glad! And I shall! Like right now! Haha

Steffano: Most definitely. :]

Blood of the Wolf: LMAO!

I smiled at Zack shaking his hand. I could tell he was an easily likeable person.

"So, this room is the safe haven. No one comes in here but us, so if you feel too crowded just slip in here." Zack said to me.

"Okay, thanks!" I smiled at him.

"Well I better go make sure everyone is staying in line." He said walking towards the door. Aerith followed him walking with her usual grace. Reno poked Rude.

"Come on yo! I wanna party!" Reno said pulling on Rude's shirt. Rude pushed him off standing up.

"All right all right calm down." Rude replied brushing off his clothes. Reno didn't seem to care because he just grabbed Rude's shirt and dragged him out of the door.

"Tifa! I'm really glad you came!" Cloud said walking towards me. He gave me a hug and I felt myself blush a little. Yuffie giggled to herself behind me and walked over to Vincent.

"Hey there Crimson." She said sitting next to him. He glanced up and nodded in response.

"Liking the party?" she said trying to make conversation. He shrugged and she launched into another question.

"Come on, Yuffie will be at that for awhile. She's always trying to get him to talk." Cloud said chuckling.

"Okay, wanna show me around?" I asked him.

"Of course"

We left the 'safe haven' and were met with blasting music and dancing bodies. Cloud grabbed my hand and we weaved our way through the crowd into a less crowded corner.

"So, do you know how to dance?" Cloud asked with a mischievous smile dancing across his lips. I smirked. Of course I knew how to dance. My mother taught me things before- no, no sad thoughts tonight just happiness. I nodded and began dancing. I swayed my hips to the beat lifting my hands above my head. He started dancing too moving to the beat. I smiled at him and turned around. He got the message and wrapped his arms around my waist dancing. It hurt some, because of the bruises, but I ignored it. Soon the song ended and we broke apart.

"I guess you do know how to dance." He said smiling.

"I told you!" I said and stuck my tongue out. He laughed and I joined in. This party didn't seem too bad.

"Awwww that's so nice Cloud. Hanging out with the newbie."

"Go away Lightening." He said agitated. I glared at her hoping she'd get the point and leave.

"But Cloud! We have succchhhh great history!" Lightening exclaimed. I looked at Cloud confused.

"We USED to go out. But I broke up with her, for obvious reasons." Cloud explained. I giggled at his rudeness. Lightening scoffed.

"Whatever, you know you still want me." She said flipping her hair. She took her friends and left.

"And what did you ever see in her?" I asked him smiling. He chuckled shaking his head. Another song came on and we continued dancing. We danced for I don't know how long before Yuffie appeared.

"Hey Tif! We have to go my mom wants me home." She said frowning. I sulked for a moment but nodded and turned around.

"Sorry Cloud, I have to go now." I said sadly. He nodded and hugged me.

"All right then, see ya!" I smiled and nodded. Yuffie and I left and I smiled the whole way home. Screw my dad. I'll deal with him when I get there.
