ONESHOT- MAY I HAVE THIS DANCE?

PAIRING- VINCENTxTIFA

THIS ONE'S SHORT GUYS! JUST WARNING YOU!

So many people are here, and I had no idea Rufus would invite so many people to his wedding. It could be a hazard to his life, even with tons of security guards around. But at least the solemn president has loosened up and found someone he loves. Unlike me. I mean sure, Cloud was a nice idea of a person to have a crush on, but all feelings disappeared after he did. Sure, we're still friends, but I don't think of him like that anymore. Besides, he's taken interest in some girl that lives in Kalm named Karry. Probably met her on one of his deliveries.

"I never would've thought that idiot would've attracted a woman," Yuffie raises an eyebrow. "But she seems rich. Wonder if she has any materia?"

"Keep your paws to yourself, Yuffie," Cid glares at her. Neither of them were too happy about being forced into nice clothes, and Yuffie even threatened to sue us. But I honestly didn't believe her and shoves her into a dress anyway.

"Pff, ninjas have expert hands," she scoffs. "If anyone has paws it's Vincent."

The quiet, dark man looks up at the mention of his name and I send him a small smile. He knows they're just teasing, and returns the expression. Sometime after all the Deepground and WRO crap, he decided to try and look somewhat normal, getting rid of his golden claw and pointy shoes, the cape, and even the bandana that usually adorned his forehead. He cut his hair back to the way it was when he was a Turk, but his ridiculously long bangs managed to stay. All in all, Vincent is learning to live like a normal person again.

"Don't be so sure," he says in his deep voice. "These paws might give you a booboo."

"I'm terrified, Vinnie." He rolls his eyes and looks back down at his plate.

"Hey Yuffie," Barret says. " I think that guy has materia," he motions toward Tseng, who stands in the corner with his arms crossed.

"What?!"

"Shh!" Reeve hushes her, an equal look of amusement in his dark eyes. "Go get it!"

"Don't need to tell me twice," she grins, scrambling to her feet and disappearing.

"So immature," Vincent shakes his head.

"What did you expect from the kid?" Cid chuckles. "She's still that annoying teenager even if it's been four years."

"At least that the future Lady of Wutai knows where her hands belong," he replies with a half smile. Suddenly, the small band in the corner begins to play slow music, couples standing and deciding to dance together. Shera literally drags Cid to the dance floor and Tseng is completely oblivious to the ninja that's digging through his inventory.

"I'm gonna go grab some more to eat," Barret nods toward Marlene, who's tugging at his hand and begin for him to go come with her.

"Poor Nanaki," Reeve shakes his head at the animal that is sitting on the floor in the very back. "I'm gonna go keep him company."

"It feels so empty here now," I laugh, looking at the practically empty table. Vincent nods and takes a sip of his red wine. I notice he drinks that a lot, whether he actually plans on drinking enough to be drunk or not.

"Looks like our pilot can't figure out how to fly on the dance floor," he says finally. I look over to see Cid clumsily attempting to keep up with his wife, who's laughing at him and making him turn red.

"Poor guy," I laugh, shaking my head.

"Unfortunately, I don't think this is something he'll ever become good at. Too stocky," Vincent shakes his head with a small smile of amusement.

"Can you?"

"Hmm?" He furrows his eyebrows in confusion.

"Dance, I mean," I feel a little warmth crawling across my cheeks.

"I guess," he shrugs. "What about you?"

"Not really," I laugh lightly. "Just know the basic stuff."

"Hmm," he grunts, taking another drink.

Gosh, he looks so good in normal clothing. I blush at my thoughts and stop staring at him. But he looks right at me after to turn away, probably confused by my burning cheeks. Suddenly, he stands and bends over in front of me. I frown in slight confusion, but when he looks up, I can see a cheeky smile on his face.

"May I have this dance, Miss Lockhart?"

"Oh, um... Sure," I flush a deeper shade of red and accept the hand he's holding out.

We move to the middle area with the rest of the wedding guests and get in "position", I guess you could call it. His hand rests on my waist, the other holding my hand and we move slowly to the soft music the band is playing.

"Does it bother you?" He asks suddenly. I frown and look up at him.

"What?"

"That Cloud has someone else now?"

I shake my head and take the chance he's offering for me to twirl.

"He's made his choice. If he doesn't feel what I did, then that's just too bad."

"Did?"

"He's moved on and so have I," I shrug. "Seriously, it looks like the only thing I wanted will never happen."

"Cloud?" His frown deepens.

"No! I just... I don't know, I've always been that kind of girl to dream about someone loving me," I sigh. "Sorry, I don't mean to dump a bunch of my immaturity on you."

"It's not dumb," he shakes his head. "But that's really all you've wanted?"

"All I've ever wanted," I nod. He hums and then leans his head way down by my neck, my skin tingling when his lips press to me.

"If only you knew all you ever wanted is right in front of you?" His hot breath fans over my ear and down the back of my dress when he speaks, making me shudder. But then his warmth is gone and I see his back walking away. I'm frozen in thought, though, so I don't mind. Did he just admit that he loves me or that he really likes Cloud?

TA-DA! I TOLD YOU THIS ONE WAS SHORT! DON'T JUDGE... LOVE Y'ALL! I HAVE A TSENG AND ELENA ONE PLANNED NEXT... I KNOW, I KNOW, WE JUST DID THE TURKS. I'M SAWEE TO DISAPPOINT YOU... BUT THAT'S WHY YOU CAN SKIP CHAPTERS!
