I don't own nuttin'!~~~~~~~~~~

That First Dance We Shared

Vincent sighed as he pulled back the large velvet curtain as he looked out on the large ballroom floor, silently cursing Reeve, the man in charge of setting up this huge dance. Reeve wanted to make a way for all his employees to have fun with getting embarrassed by people knowing who they were. Vincent gritted his teeth as he looked down at himself; he wore a fancy coat of a nice scarlet color with ebony colored designs and coat-tails, black slacks and boots. He looked ridiculous, the masquerade mask he wore over his eyes didn't help; it was black with crimson feathers to match his eyes then it was decorated with red and gold glitter.

"You look like some f****n' wacko in that get up…!" Vincent's eye twitched beneath the mask as he turned to his old friend Cid Highwind; a man in his mid-thirties, he looked older than Vincent but was actually more than twenty years younger.

"I do not see why I have to participate in this company affair… Least of all in this strange attire…" Vincent grumbled as he fixed his mask, oddly, he felt a hint of jealousy towards Cid because he didn't have to wear a costume since he was in charge of taking care of everything. Cid simply grabbed him by the shoulders and shoved him out the certain.

"Get going, Vamp! The dance is starting!" Vincent stumbled out onto the shining ballroom floor, looking at all the people hidden under masks. Sighing, he headed for the middle of the floor or alas he would look a fool for having no dance partner. Suddenly, his ruby eyes settled upon a young woman wearing a masquerade queen's gown of gold and jade green, her beautiful black hair in a bob cut and hiding behind the gold and jade mask she wore, but what really caught his eye was the little silver wings with emerald glitter attached to the back of her gown. He couldn't help himself, he soon found himself walking over to her in long strides.

~V*Y~

Yuffie sighed as she walked slowly on to the dance floor, wondering why her friends Tifa and Aerith insisted on her coming to this stupid ball with them, she didn't ever work here!

'Stupid Tifa! Stupid Aerith! Stupid high-heels!' Her mind grumbled as she tried to walk in the painful heels, 'No man's ever gonna dance with a short little kid like me! I don't even have the curves to even begin trying to draw one in!' She was just starting to give up and walk off the floor when she heard someone next to her.

"May I have this dance, miss…" The voice was masculine yet sounded like liquid silk in her ears. She turned to see the most beautiful man she had ever seen in her life stand before her; he was tall, pale-skinned and his outfit consisted mostly of scarlet and ebony but it was his long raven colored hair in a pony-tail, tied loosely at the tip and his striking crimson eyes that just seemed to draw her in. He was in a slight bow and had his gloved hand offered out for her to take.

"Y-yes…" Her response came out shaky and low as she took his hand. As it intertwined her own gloved hand she realized that his was not a glove at all but a golden gauntlet with long metal claws. She gasped, but she could not tell if it was because of the gauntlet or because of the feel of his hand slipping onto her body, getting ready for the dance. She felt herself staring up into his crimson eyes; they were frightening yet beautiful, not letting her look away as he began to lead her into a fast waltz. She doing all the motions but she wasn't sure how, she didn't know how to dance! It was like she was a puppet on a string and he was the puppet-master, leading her into all the right moves. He blinked and she was finally released from the hold of his eyes and she started to look down but her eyes got caught on his pale lips. They were so gorgeous and soft looking, she just wanted to kiss them.

'Yuffie! What're you doin', girl!' She mentally screamed at herself, still mesmerized by his lips, 'You're eighteen, he's got to be like ten years older than you! Oh, but they look so sweet!' As if sense her lust for the action, the man leaned down laid a passionate kiss on her tiny pink lips before moving his to hover next to ear, where he whispered gently.

"I go by the name Vincent Valentine, pray tell young maiden, what is yours…" His hot breath brushed her ear and sent a shiver down her spine.

"Y-yuffie… K-ki-s-saragi…" A ghost of a smile appeared upon his lips as he looked into her eyes.

"A pleasure to meet you, young miss Yuffie Kisaragi."

~V*Y~

Despite looking very much like one, Vincent was no vampire but at this point in time he may as well been one. He leaned his head down again and whispered.

"Sing for me, Yuffie Kisaragi." He said slyly as he moved to her neck, using his sharp teeth to bite the soft flesh of her smooth neck, making a pleasant moan escape her throat.

~T*A~

Tifa was standing next to the punch table with Aerith, looking for Yuffie, wondering if she had gotten a dance partner or had just ran off without a word. The punch she was drinking flew out of her mouth as she spotted the teenager and her dance partner. Upon hearing Tifa's strange predicament, Aerith looked up from the punch she was serving herself and gazed in the direction that Tifa was gawking. She saw Yuffie dancing with a tall man with long black hair; the young girl had one hand tightly gripping his metal gauntlet while her other hand's finger dug into his back as her face was a picture of pure ecstasy while he appeared to be biting into her neck.

"What in the name of Gaia!" Both girls screamed as all they could do was watch.

~~~~~~~~~~~~A/N: I totally just had to add a tiny bit of humor at the end there! XP Good ol' vampy, Vincent. When I first came up with this story that was NOT supposed to happen but in the it just kinda did... Anyways, I'm starting a new full length story staring Vincent, Yuffie and Cid. What I wanted to know is, should I keep it strictly friendship or should I throw in Yuffietine romance in there? Let me know please! ^^Enjoy the drabbles!
