Eye Candy

"Wow…I didn't realize there were so many people on the airship until now," Yuffie says, leaning on the railing.

Currently Yuffie and I are standing behind the safety of a railing of the outside deck watching the mass exodus of the airship.

I nod in agreement dreading the actuality that all of these people will be at this wedding. It's sheer insanity.

"Oh look, there's Grant," Yuffie points him out in the crowd.

"I think that's Shera's sister beside of him—

"Ehmagawd…who are they?" Yuffie cries, pointing to a small cluster of guys near Grant.

I study the four guys, "I think they're Shera's brothers."

Yuffie's jaw drops, "Shera has brothers?!"

I nod my head.

"Four brothers?!"

"I think there may be a set of twins."

"Twins?!" she cries.

I blink, glancing at her. I forgot how annoying she could be.

"What's the big deal?"

"Cloud," she leans on my shoulder, "See all those boys down there? Shera's brothers? They're like…the epitome of a perfect male specimen."

Oh my God.

"And you're telling me," she taps her chest, "That there are two down there that look exactly a like? I mean, look at their bone structure. Oh wow. That one down there on the far left has got a green eye and a brown eye. Sexy!"

"You can see that from here?"

She ignores the question, "Quick, Cloud…give me some ages!"

"Uh…I think the oldest is twenty five, and the youngest is eighteen—

"Oh sweet…I can not wait to get down there. It's like a meat market, except they're men. Gawd, who would've thought Shera's family, was a hawt hunk of male mass?"

I have got to end this conversation, but I can't help but ask.

"You're going to...date Shera's brothers…? You do realize that they'll soon be Cid's brothers."

"Oh crap, that's right…and anyways," she sneers, "Who said anything about dating?"

I sigh, turning my head away.

"Oh come on Cloud! Weddings are like the ultimate way to hook up with people…you can always— Oh wait, you can't…you're taken."

"Happily, thank you."

She scoffs, turning once again to gaze at the 'hawt hunk of male mass'…that just sounds plain wrong. I shudder involuntarily. I thought guys were suppose to be the one all about the body…aren't girls suppose to be looking for lasting relationships?

"Hey Spike—oh…right…never mind."

Dammit!

I turn, sending Barret a withering glare. He holds up his hands in defense.

"Hey, it slipped…sorry man."

"Oh quit moping, Cloud," Yuffie's still spying on Shera's brothers.

Where'd she get those binoculars from?

"Your hair will grow back fast enough…if you want I can look around for a herb shop and make you up a Wutai concoction specifically designed for faster hair growth."

Barret and I look at each other, confused. Why the heck does she know a Wutai concoction specifically designed for faster hair growth?

Barret sighs, "Yuffie…why do you know—

"It's for a friend," she shrugs.

"Cid?" Barret asks.

"Cid is going bald?"

"Shh! Don't let anyone know!" Yuffie suddenly turns on us, "He'll kill me. And it's not even like it is significant loss or anything."

"Any hair loss for a man is significant," Barret replies.

"Yeah, that was proven with Cloud's little accident," Yuffie says turning her attention back to Shera's brothers.

Okay, first off...it wasn't an accident. No way in hell. Secondly, she's an animal…a dog…ha ha. You can make that connection yourself.

Barret frowns, "What are you two doing up here anyways?"

I glance over my shoulder at Barret, "Yuffie's checking out the goods."

"What?"

Yuffie wiggles her hips, "I'm going to have so much fun this week," she says in a sing-song voice.

"Oh…oh man! I did not need to know that, dammit. I'm going to go find Marlene."

"Warn them," I call over my shoulder at Barret.

Surprisingly Yuffie agrees, "Oh yes! So that way, they'll try to resist my irresistible charm and fail miserably! Ha ha! Oh this is going to be a great week."

"I'm leaving—

"You're no fun," Yuffie pouts, "But don't worry! I've already got Operation Dye planned up."

"Die?" I asked, perplexed.

"No, dye…never mind. You'll have your revenge yet, though."

Benny, "Yeah, just don't kill anyone."

"Well, duh! How would they suffer if they're dead?"

Now would be a good time to leave, "Bye."

"Hey, Cloud!"

Or not.

I see Tifa walking across the deck, smiling warmly. However, my attention is focused elsewhere from her adoring face.

"Biki…"

"What?" Yuffie asks, annoyed.

I can barely keep myself from pointing, "Biki…"

"What?" Yuffie turns and glances, taking precious time from her binoculars.

She smiles when she spots Tifa, "Oh," she grins mischievously, "Eyes up, buddy," she returns to her spying, "It's not like you've never seen her naked before anyways."

Man, she's blunt today…I don't even have half a mind to defend that claim, but still! This is different though! This is Tifa in a bikini!

"If this is the way you act right now, I can't wait to see what you'll be like when she takes off those shorts and you see the bottom half; speaking of 'checking out the goods'. Wipe your drool away, Romeo. It may look good on the two year old, but it just isn't flying with you."

Shut up!

"Have you ever seen her in a bikini before?"

I shake my head no. Trust me, if I'd had seen her like this before, then I would've remembered. It would've been stored in my head with the other 'Cloud's special moment's never to be forgotten'. Anyone have a camera?

"Hey," Tifa beams up at me, "What're you two up to?"

"Checking out the goods," Yuffie replies holding out her binoculars, "Here girl, you've got to take a looksie."

What?! No, my girlfriend has me! Erm, fiancé! Bitch!

Tifa takes them, "Holy crap…does that guy have a green eye and a brown eye?"

"Unique, eh?"

"Huh…those are Shera's brothers, right? Nice choice—Hey!"

I grab the binoculars, passing them off to Yuffie. Tifa gives me a perplexed look and I shrug.

"Oh! Jealousy!"

Yuffie sucks.

Tifa smiles, "Aw, Cloud! You aren't jealous, are you?" she pokes me in the side.

I roll my eyes away, and cross my arms. I'm really not having this conversation with these two. How many guys sit there and watch their fiancé stare through binoculars at four male siblings that are apparently good looking?

"Oh he's totally jealous," Yuffie snickers.

I'm about to walk away, but Tifa wraps her arms around me and stares up at me. She's in a really good mood, I can tell…else she probably wouldn't have gazed through the binoculars at Yuffie's targets. Or at least, I'm hoping she wouldn't…

Man this day sucks.

But she is hugging me in a bikini, so she's pretty much forgiven and absolved of sins, but…she doesn't have to know that.

Tifa reaches up, rubbing the top of my head, "Oh…I think your hair's already grown a bit more."

Yuffie laughs, "Yeah, you're still a blondie. The fuzz even reflects in the sunlight."

I glare at Yuffie over the top of Tifa's head, and she sticks her tongue out in retaliation.

"What are you doing in a bikini anyways, Tifa?" Yuffie asks, back to spying.

"Oh, I changed earlier and was sunbathing out on the deck. I knew it'd take forever for all these people to get settled, so, I put the time to good use," she turns her attention to me, "We need to go to the hotel soon, and get our room. Denzel and Marlene are with Barret. I think he said he'd share a room with them."

"So, it'll be us two?"

Tifa grins, "Uh huh."

Score!

"Pervert…" Yuffie mumbles under her breath.

I glare at her over Tifa's head again, and Yuffie flips me the bird. Man I hate her.

I place my hand on Tifa's back to begin to lead her away, "Later, Yuffie."

Tifa smiles at Yuffie over her shoulder as we walk across the empty deck, "Enjoy the show, Yuffs."

"Oh I will…you too, Cloud…you enjoy your show too," Yuffie laughs, going back to her binoculars.

I rub my eyes with my free hand, and I feel Tifa press up against me, reminding me of the thin fabric that separates us.

"What did she mean by that?"

A/N: I realized something today. My wordcount on Word is different from this one...ah well. I need sleep...I had fun on my camping trip, but now its beddy bye. Enjoy.
