Disclaimer: I don't own FFVII

A/N: Okay, so... short chapter. I'm pretty busy this week, so I wouldn't expect much updates within any of my stories. Possibly on Wednesday cause I have the day off, but that's only if my plans for the day fall through. ANYHOO! I want to give giant chocolate bars and hugs to ChocoResha, Circle of Pheonix, always-kh, sana-chan9, and JingYee! ILY guys! ^_^ Enjoy!


I tried to sneak in through the back door (using my secret ninja stealth, of course). However, as Leviathan would have it, apparently luck was not on my side.

What gives, Leviathan?

"Where were you?"

I rolled my eyes. Gosh, how much creepier could Cloud get? I mean, sitting in the shadows? Such a Vincent thing, Chocobo boy… "Oh, you know, out and about. Checkin' the latest night scenes and such." I shrugged, making my way to sit in front of him. "Geez, Cloud? What's up with you waiting for me in the dark? That's a little creepy, if you ask me."

"Good thing I didn't ask you." He responded dryly.

"You're such a grouch," I huffed, "Do you know that?"

He ignored me (What's new?) and grimaced. "Care to tell me why Reno was in here earlier?"

Reno came here, too? What a drunk. Nyuck nyuck!

"To drink, I'm guessing." I said as if it were obvious. What else would you go into a bar for, Spiky?

Okay… maybe Tifa's customers went to ogle her, but whatever. They all drank!

Cloud obviously wasn't satisfied with my answer as he leant forward. "Why was he asking for you, Yuffie?" He had a no nonsense tone that kind of reminded me of Vincent. Talk about being a total sour puss. "Yuffie,"

Huh? Oh, yeah, he was talking to me. "Um…"

His eyes narrowed suspiciously. "You shouldn't hang around with him."

I scoffed. "Oh please, Cloud. Can we save the whole 'protective father against boyfriend' act for Marlene?"

"Boyfriend?" He asked, with only a hint of surprise. "You're dating him?"

"What!" I sputtered, my eyes widening, caught off guard at how my little rebuke had sounded. "You- I- Gawd, grossness, Cloud!"

I let out a few scoffs and snorts, shaking my head at the ridiculousness of the implication. "Honestly," I muttered.

Cloud's expression didn't change, but it's not like I was even expecting it to. "Hn."

Reno my boyfriend? Psh. Yeah, right. That's just too funny. And completely ridiculous. Me? Bad ass ninja, Yuffie Kisaragi involved with Turkey! Snort. Puh-lease.

When Sephiroth comes back from the dea- Oh wait… Scratch that. Heh.

Never, just never! Gawd!

"I'm going to bed." I said, quickly, running up the stairs before Cloud could protest. "Goodnight!"

In bed, I tossed and turned. What the hell was I still thinking about that red headed moron for? Must be the alcohol… I punched my pillow at the thought, fluffing it up.

All I could think about was his stupid (totally not sexy) grin. Humph. I needed to lay off the booze. Stupid turkey… his idiocy was plaguing me even when he wasn't there!

Psh. Whatever. I'd show him!

-Just as soon as I wasn't enveloped in the comfy-ness of my bed… I'd think of a plan.

…Stupid, gorgeous, turk bastard…

Reno: 2, Yuffie: 0


Ok, there you go! :) Review, please!
