Thirty five: Zack's birthday bash part 3

After releasing all the alcohol she had consumed all over her fiance, Tifa instantly sobered up and went straight to a boutique near the karaoke place to get Cloud some fresh clothes, it was a good thing that the VIP room they got had its own bathroom, she bought towels, a soap and other stuff. She used the bidet shower from the toilet to spray Cloud with water to bathe away all the disgusting stuff all over him. When he was all cleaned, leaving the bathroom really wet in the process, everyone else had sobered up, a little though.

"So..." Yuffie started, she knitted her eyebrows before she spoke. "Where do we go next?" She asked weakly before she took a sip of her ginger ale.

"How about some milkshakes?" Zack, who has recovered rapidly from his drunken state suggested. "I know this good diner not so far away, they have this really huge burger that you have to consume in an hour, if you do, you get a championship belt, a photo in the hall of fame and the food is free." He said with a huge grin.

"After you got drunk to the brink of insanity, I hope you guys don't think of doing that challenge. And liquor then milkshakes?" Tifa said while she dried Cloud's hair with a towel, who was still in a daze after his refreshing 'bath'.

"Nah, it's alright, we've already thrown up all the alcohol anyway." Zack said nonchalantly, Tifa stared at him, disturbed about that little bit of information.

"I can't drink those milkshakes, my figure is my wealth, and if you're thinking straight, Lockhart, you should watch your body too or you'll get sacked, not that I care about you." Aerith said without looking at the brunette, Tifa felt her temper rising so she stood up.

"Now wait a minute! Just so you know, I am watching my figure!" Tifa exclaimed before she heard Cloud snort loudly beside her. The brunette slowly looked down her fiance with her face already in for the kill. "What's. So. Funny...?" She said in gritted teeth.

"Nothing, except that our fridge is filled with every delectable desserts you can think of." The blond said before he laughed out loud.

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S SIDING WITH AERITH!

"Are you seriously siding with her right now?! You're unbelievable! I hate you!" Tifa yelled before she stormed out of the room, Cloud's face fell then he stood up to go after her.

"Hey! Baby! I was not siding with her! Hey!"

"Stop following me!"

"Hey!" Cloud got a hold of Tifa's wrist but she yanked it away.

"What?! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" She could see from behind Cloud's shoulder that Zack was ushering everyone to back inside then he closed the door.

"What the hell are talking about me siding with her?!"

"Shut up, alright?! You knew I couldn't stand her and yet you're saying something like that to satisfy her even mor-"

"I was just teasing you!"

"I don't want to talk to you, I'm going home."

"No, please, I'll go home. Stay with them." Cloud said while he tried to approach Tifa.

"No! Stay with your precious Aerith! I'm going home!" Tifa turned around but Cloud grabbed her wrist to turn her around, Tifa pushed him away harshly before he started to walk past her to go home instead of her. Tifa started walking fast past him, then he too started walking fast, they looked at each other before both of them started running, looked at each other again before they ran even faster. People turned their heads at the running couple before both of them were out on the road, Tifa started waving her hand in the air to get a taxi while Cloud was doing the same. They bumped into each other in the process.

"Out of my way!" Tifa yelled.

"You get out of the way!" Cloud yelled back while they continued bumping on each other.

"Oh no no no no no!" Tifa exclaimed while waving her forefinger in the air in a sassy manner.

"Don't you 'no no no' me!" Cloud responded, imitating her actions which had her looking disturbed.

"Hold up!" It was the voice of Zack from right behind them, who was fisting both their jackets from behind, both Tifa and Cloud looked back at him, Zack started using his eyes to point at the crowd that had suddenly gathered all around them. Tifa let out a nervous laugh, cursing herself for forgetting that she and Cloud were a household name, and an embarrassing stunt like that would be bad for their reputation. Paparazzis started running towards their direction that caused the three of them to instantly go back inside, while the screaming fans started running after them but the guards of the karaoke place stopped them.

"You two are hilarious, seriously, let's just forget about what happened and enjoy the rest of the day." Zack said quietly that only the lovers could hear, not wanting to gain the attention of the guests of the karaoke place. "We still have one more place to go guys."

"And where would that be?" Cloud said flatly.

"You'll find out soon enough. But right now, we need to go." Zack whispered, already sensing the growing crowd behind them, who were clutching their notes to ask for their autographs.

It was already dark when they reached the last place, they had just finished eating dinner, since the crowd incident they decided not to go to the diner with the big burger and eat at a restaurant instead, where they could eat in peace. After that, Zack gave the girls his credit card so they could pick out clothes appropriate for a night out, then he dragged the guys to get their own outfits, which he would be paying for, of course. Cloud protested but Zack managed to drag him away, him and Tifa weren't speaking yet after their fight. Nobody questioned Zack's commands and they did their business though Tifa wasn't really in the mood.

Yuffie did the dressing up for the brunette, her bestfriend picked out a white strapless crop top with a sweetheart neckline with a white formal jacket over it, which was left open to reveal her perfect abs, a black high waist jeans, She wore black pumps on her feet and she did her hair in a ponytail with a pouf in front, she wore dangling earrings and her make up was dark and sexy with some delicious red lips, she didn't agree at first, but when Yuffie was done in fixing her up, she was surprised how much she like the final outcome, Yuffie told her that Cloud would drool all night, specially at the sight of her sexy ruby eyes and her delicious cleavage.

That will serve him right. Was Yuffie's words.

Yuffie wore a cute loose fitting layered crop top which was dark green in color, some high waist black short shorts and some black ankle boots. She wore a cream colored formal jacket over her crop top which she left open. Her hair was done in a messy, wavy style and her make up was sweet and light.

Aerith wore a light pink strapless jumpsuit with a sweetheart neckline, it has a bow as a belt and she got a red, glittery purse to go along with it. On her feet were strappy high heels. She let her hair down in loose curls though she clipped one side with a silver flower clip. Her make up was light but as red lipped as Tifa. She wore gold bangles on both her wrists.

"You look divine." Aerith said so suddenly with that snooty look on her face, Tifa knitted her eyebrows then looked around, making sure the green eyed beauty was talking to her. "But it doesn't mean you look better than me." She said before she turned around hastily. Tifa rolled her eyes before she started walking after Aerith, with a perplexed Yuffie behind them.

"Whatever." Tifa said boredly.

This bitch is bonkers. Yuffie thought as she stared at Aerith's retreating back. Outside the salon, they saw Zack's minivan and they proceeded to go towards it, paparazzis started flashing their cameras as soon as they left the place.

"You look so hot Tifa! Smile for me!"

"Aerith! Beautiful! Look at the camera!"

"Who's your pretty friend?"

The noise died down when Aerith slid in the passenger seat, and Yuffie and Tifa slid in on the back. Tifa was last to go in, she closed the door beside her, not really paying attention to her fiance, who was sitting at the other end, who couldn't seem to take his eyes off her the moment she walked out the salon.

"You girls... Look amazing." Zack commented as he looked at the three girls.

"Thanks to you." Tifa responded, still not noticing the intense gaze that Cloud was giving her from the other end, who looked really sexy wearing his black muscles shirt with a blood red jacket over it, the sleeves where pushed back to his elbows, he wore fitted black jeans, some white belt and some white sneakers. They started driving away towards their next destination.

They all looked out when Zack pulled in, Tifa looked up to see that it was a night club.

Oh, that explains the clothes. She thought, looking down at her cleavage before adjusting her neckline.

"This is it, who's ready to partey?!" Zack asked but since the incident in the karaoke place, nobody spoke to answer him, he couldn't help but chuckle before he opened the door to go out, Tifa and Aerith followed not long after, then seconds later, everyone was out. Paparazzis were flashing their cameras everywhere, Tifa was still puzzled how they knew they were coming.

Maybe the job description requires 'one should have mental telepathy' or something.

Once they entered the club, they were greeted by loud cheering and screaming, Zack cheered along with them with his fists up in the air, someone from the crowd placed a huge golden crown on his head a white fury scarf made its way around his neck, a cocktail was handed to him by another, he took a sip before he raised it up, the crowd cheering louder. Zack wrapped an arm around Aerith before both of them proceeded to the bar, they started squeezing their way towards the dance floor, signaling for the rest of the group to go with him. Tifa started making her way forward with Yuffie walking beside her.

"Let's go dancing!" Yuffie yelled over the loud music to Tifa's ear.

"What?!"

"DANCING!"

"No! I don't want to! I won't dance!" Tifa protested.

"Are you kidding me?! You need to dance! You need to learn how to party and live my friend!"

"No!"

"Oh come on!"

"I'm going to the bar to have a drink!" Tifa yelled, leaving a pouting Yuffie alone to get drinks, the truth was, she was avoiding Cloud, she was still mad at him over their fight.

I need a LOT of drinks.

Drunk Tifa danced like a maniac along with Zack, who was doing some sort of leprechaun dance steps in the middle of the dance floor, while Tifa did her signature robot dance in front him.

"This is so much fun! OH MY GODS!" She yelled while she danced, Zack grinned wildly while still doing his ridiculous dance.

"I know right?! IT'S UN-FUCKING-BELIEVABLE!"

"Look at those two." Cloud bitterly commented before he scoffed as he drank his beer while sitting along with Aerith, Yuffie and Vincent at a nearby table. Yuffie had been laughing out loud for the past fifteen minutes.

"And she told me she didn't want to freaking dance! Just look at her! She's surely owning that dance floor!" Yuffie exclaimed while she gestured at Tifa, who was framing her face with her hands with an annoying purse of her lips. Then Zack did the same chicken dance from the karaoke place while bobbing his head forward, Tifa started imitating him by doing the same.

"Lookit me! I'm a chicken! BOK BOK BOK!" Tifa exclaimed like a chicken and that's when Yuffie started laughing out louder, already red in the face. Cloud's mouth twitched, doing his best not to laugh at the drunken antics of his girlfriend.

"You really are a pathetic little chicken." Aerith said to herself. Suddenly, Zack did a back flip that caught everyone's attention, Tifa stopped dancing to look at him before she wore a smug smile on her face when he started break dancing, then he stood up with an eyebrow raised before everyone cheered wildly for him.

"Bet you can't top that!" Zack challenged Tifa.

"Oh really..." Tifa said, Zack gave her a smug look but his jaw dropped when Tifa did the same back flip then landed gracefully on the floor with a smug smirk, the fact that she was wearing heels was the best part, Cloud choked on his beer while everyone's jaws dropped to the floor, Aerith however, merely raised an eyebrow with that snooty look, secretly impressed.

"OH MY GODS!" Zack yelled while clutching the sides of his head like a crazy person which triggered wild cheering from the crowd.

"Holy shit!" Yuffie was appalled that she didn't know her bestfriend could do something like that, but she figured that she did martial arts, so it made sense. Zack started doing some amazing, snapping dance moves, which includes a moonwalk before spinning around to face Tifa with his arms crossed in front of him, Tifa raised an eyebrow before she too started doing some moves with her hands and feet that made everyone's jaws drop. Her funny robotic dance was funny no more, it was amazing and jaw dropping.

"HOLY SHIT DORKOID! YOU AIN'T NO DORKOID NO MORE!" Yuffie yelled on top of her lungs. Cloud stared at Tifa with his mouth wide open, completely shocked at how good she moved, it was identical to Zack.

"HOLY HELL! TIFA LOCKHART EVERYBODY!" Zack yelled while he gestured towards the brunette. "I take back my words!" Zack said with a bow of his head before he started doing his ridiculous dance moves once again, Tifa followed not long after, Zack started wiggling his ass in front of her, who started doing a slapping motion from side to side, the crowd cheered wildly again while their friends gave them perplexed looks. Cloud stared flabbergasted at his fiance, who was now doing some sort of ocean wave with her arms with everyone cheering for her.

"Hello Cloud." The blond looked up to see a red haired woman with delicious curves looking down at him. He raised both eyebrows.

"Zuri." He said before he took a sip of his beer, Aerith looked at the woman then at Cloud before she stood up to go to the dance floor. Yuffie and Vincent were busy making out to notice to new comer. Aerith walked sexily towards where her boyfriend and Tifa was before she whispered something in the brunette's ear.

"Better watch out chicken pie." She said in a sultry voice. "Look at the table, that's one of his exes. She's one of those who lasted with him. If I were you, better kiss and make up with him." She warned before Tifa stopped to look at where Cloud was, her nostrils flared up when she saw how he was smiling while talking to the pretty woman.

"I owe you one." Tifa told Aerith a nod. "I would kill for you right now." She said again. Aerith closed her eyes while she nodded her head in approval.

"But it doesn't mean we're friends." Aerith said. Tifa couldn't help but snort.

"I knew that." Tifa responded with a wiggle of her eyebrow before she sent Cloud glares of death. Cloud looked over to where Tifa was and when he saw that she was fuming while glaring at him, he suddenly leaned forward to whisper something to the woman's ear, who started giggling, TIfa's jaw dropped and that's when she started storming towards the oblivious pair. Zack saw the whole thing.

"Shit!" He exclaimed then put down his drink before he went after the fuming Tifa, but he was too late, the brunette had already fisted the red haired woman's dress, who was trying to get out of Tifa's grip. Cloud stood up to pull them apart but Tifa pushed him back harshly.

"Who the fuck do you think you are flirting with someone else's fiance?!" She asked with her voice filled with venom, Zack and the rest was thankful that the club was dark and everyone was busy minding their own business that nobody noticed what was happening.

"Tifa, hey, it's alright." Zack tried to calm the brunette but it wasn't working

"Tifa. Stop it!" Cloud said firmly but Tifa ignored him.

"Let go of me you ugly bitch!" The red haired woman yelled, Tifa lost it, she pulled up the woman using her impossible strength but before she could throw the woman away, Zack got in between along with Yuffie, who slapped the crap out of Tifa to snap her out of it. It worked and it made the brunette let go of the red head. Tifa started storming out away from them, squeezing her way through the crowd.

"Tifa!" Yuffie started running after her but she was fast, she was no where in sight. "Tifa!" Yuffie turned around to glare at Cloud. "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" But the blond ignored her and he started going after his lover. When he finally reached the entrance of the club, a swarm of fans and paparazzis approached him but he was thankful of the bouncers that had stopped them, he fished out his phone to dial Tifa's number, but it went straight to voicemail.

GODDAMMIT! He cursed himself for being stupid and making her jealous like that. Now, he didn't know where she was. One of the bouncers who was noticing his dilemma, approached him.

"Mr. Strife, if you're looking for Ms. Lockhart, she grabbed a taxi just a while ago." The bouncer said, Cloud's face turned into a scowl before he thanked the bouncer, who went back to where he was stationed. Cloud pocketed his phone before he too grabbed a taxi to go home, thinking that it's where Tifa went to.

Tifa threw her purse angrily at the bed of the hotel she will stay for the night, she didn't want to go back to Cloud's place and definitely not her own apartment, she knew its where he was going to look after he finds out she's not home, and she was right.

Cloud tried to call Tifa again while he clutched his steering wheel, he had just came from her apartment building but she wasn't there, he used the key that she left on his apartment to go in but she was nowhere to be found.

"SHIT!" He yelled when he couldn't get through once again. He started texting his fiancee hoping that she'll read it.

Tifa glanced at her phone, which began vibrating once, indicating that she has a message. She had a few from the past minute, all from Yuffie, Zack and Vincent, the last one was from Cloud, she swallowed before she opened the text.

Trollie, I'm sorry, please answer the call.

Message after message came from him after that.

Baby, please, I'm really worried about you.

I don't know where you are, please text me atleast when you get this.

Tifa... Please...

I'm so sorry... I was just making you jealous, I was being stupid, please... I'm sorry.

Please... Come home.

Tifa couldn't help but smirk in victory as she stared at his texts, but at the same time, her heart was beating so madly, she suddenly had the urge to see him, to hug him, to kiss him. How can something so stupid get them into that situation? Tifa had never been in a relationship before and she didn't know if it was normal to fight over small things like that. She started texting back.

I'm at a hotel, I won't be home until tomorrow.

Seconds later, he texted back.

If you don't tell me where you are checked in, I'll looked for you in every hotel in Midgar, even if it will take me all night.

Tifa couldn't help but bite her lip while she chuckled. She loved it when Cloud was being desperate over her, it made her feel loved but at the same time, guilty.

No, no, this is what you call 'reverse psychology', I will not fall for it! He's just trying to make me feel guilt-

I'm at Lazarus, room 415. She lost her resolved and texted him her location. What she didn't know was that night that was suppose to be the night of their fight, would be the best night of her life, as soon as Cloud reached her hotel room, he had pinned her on wall while visciously attacking her mouth, telling her how sexy she looked and how much he had wanted her all night, she told him how sorry she was in the middle of the heated kiss and the next thing she knew, her wrists were being pinned above her head on the bed, with her screaming his name.

Yep, best night ever.

A/N: Nothing like a good make up *beep" after a fight. Will Zuri make a scene in the modeling industry regarding what happened in the club? Hmmm...
