Chapter 4:
Denzel laughed hard, "And, do you remember what Vincent said that time?"
"Hey! Stop it right now!" Vincent commanded but the boys, even Marlene, kept on laughing. Then, Cloud noticed Tifa who was walking towards them. The others only noticed her when she placed the tray on their table, "A tall man told me to tell you that he needs to go somewhere and you should all go home early," she bowed, "Do you need something else?"
Rufus looked at her from head to toe. Denzel shook his head, "Thank you, miss. I think we don't need something else, right?" they all agreed to him then smiled at her. She smiled back, "Okay, sir. Then, please do enjoy your orders," she then left.
"Whoa. She sure is pretty!" Reno widened his eyes. "And, her attire is distracting me! Oh, my poor eyes!" Vincent covered his eyes. "Let's drink now. Let's not waste our time. Remember, professor said to go home early," Cloud said and picked a glass. Then, all of them randomly picked as well.
Denzel got the red juice and handed it over to Marlene, "Here," he smiled. She smiled back, "Thank you," she whispered. "Okay, cheers!" Reno raised his glass and all of them cheered.
After a few minutes, the boys kept on drinking wine, "Wow! Their wine is really nice!" complimented by Reno who was now yawning and rubbing his eyes. Cloud massaged his head, "I… I feel dizzy," he rested his head on his arms on the table and fell asleep.
"Denzel… I think we shou-" Marlene was shocked to see Denzel already fast asleep then she look at the other just to find out that all the boys were fast asleep.
Marlene looked at them, "Hey, wake up. Don't sleep here," she tried to wake Denzel up. 'That's funny. It is very easy to wake him up, but…' she thought.
After two hours, the bar was about to closed, but still the boys were not yet awake. Marlene wake them up again, but she failed. Tifa saw and tried to approach them, "Excuse me, ma'am, we're about to close now…" she looked at Marlene and smiled at her.
Marlene slightly nodded, "I keep on waking them up, but it seems they're still in dreamland," she stood up, "Do you have a telephone booth here? I need to call someone."
"It's right over there," Tifa pointed near the entrance door. "I'll be right back. And, sorry for the trouble," Marlene ran fast. Tifa smiled at her and tried to wake them up, "Sir, we're closing this bar now. Please wake up," she gently shook Cloud's body. After a few seconds, nothing happened. She sighed, "Yuffie, what shall we do about these? Can I just leave them alone and go home now?" she looked at her.
Yuffie looked back and laughed, "Are you serious? You can't leave them alone there! Maybe they drank too much. They'll wake up soon, don't worry." Tifa sighed and pouted. Again, she tried to wake Cloud up, 'C'mon, wake up now. I want to go home already.' She shook his body many times. Suddenly, Rufus' fingers started to move. He coughed and raised his head up, "My neck hurts," he massaged his nape.
"Sir, I'm glad you're awake now," Tifa smiled at him. Rufus looked at her from down going up. His eyes got bigger when he looked at her face and was taken aback. Rufus face turned red and gulped.
"Is something wrong, sir?" she tilted her head. He shook his head and looked down. "Then, please help me to wake up your friends, sir."
He nodded without looking at her and tried to wake Vincent up who's right beside him. Reno suddenly raised his head, "Argh. My head hurts!" he hit his head with his palm many times. He glanced at Tifa then looked at somewhere then back to her. His jaw dropped and turned red.
Tifa just smiled at him then tried to wake up Cloud one last time, 'Wake up now, please…'she pouted. Cloud suddenly grabbed her wrist and looked at her. She was surprised by his actions, "Sir…"
His head got up, still holding her wrist, and looked at her small eyes. He can feel his heart beats faster than before. Both of them were looking at each other's eyes. Tifa can feel her face was red that time.
"Aaaaah!" Vincent shouted, "Rufus, how dare you to pinch me that hard?" he caressed his arm. "That's the only way I know for you to wake up," Rufus chuckled, "Go and wake Reno and Denzel up"
"No need. I'm already awake," Denzel rubbed his sleepy eyes and his gazed fell at Tifa. Like what happened to others, he turned red. He blinked his eyes many times. "Hey", Vincent and the now awake Reno looked where Denzel was looking at. Their face got red, too, when they saw Tifa. Reno gulped so hard, 'She's really cute.'
Tifa got awkward when five pairs of eyes were looking at her. She bit her lower lip and tried to remove Cloud's hand from her wrist, "If you have nothing else to do here, you may go now," she bowed and walked away.
"She's pretty," Vincent suddenly said. Reno nodded. Denzel blinked many times and looked at her way. Rufus and Cloud were still looking at her. Vincent held his right chest, "I think my heart will burst any minute now."
Marlene came back, "Glad you're all awake now. I've called papa. I told him to pick up us here. So, should we wait for him outside?"
"Yeah. Sure," the boys nodded as they still looking at Tifa's way which made Marlene confuse as she didn't know what had happened.
