Methinks it's about time I wrote a story about the actual wutai flea, ya know…haha
Chapter II
"Tiiiiiifaaaaa!!!!!" Yuffie bellowed as she burst through the door of the Seventh Heaven bar.
The aforementioned bartender jumped slightly at the shrill voice and whipped her head around to face the hyper ninja. "Yuffie? What are you doing here? I thought you went back to Wutai?" The brunette asked.
"Yeah, about that…" Yuffie said, casually walking over to the bar and plopping down on a barstool, "…I have to find a husband in six months."
Wine red eyes widened to the size of dinner plates, "WHAT?!"
"Mmhmm," Yuffie confirmed, idly tapping her fingers on the wood.
"Tifa!? Something wrong?" A masculine voice called as Cloud ran down the stairs, his heavy boots landing loudly on each step.
Tifa turned to him with a smile, "Yuffie's getting married!!!"
Cloud jolted to a hault and turned to face the ninja, surprised, "When?"
Yuffie looked up, "In six months, Godo and me made a deal. Either I find a husband in six months or he chooses one for me…"
Tifa leaned across the bar, "But…why didn't you say no, like all the other times?"
The teenager sighed and swayed on her stool, "Because, if I don't get married then Wutai is going to be without a ruler…"
"But why now?" Tifa asked, "Why not later, like a few years from now? You're only nineteen…"
The ninja shrugged, "I dunno, ask Godo." A smirk slowly made its way across her face, "But hey, I got six months! And who can resist the great ninja Yuffie Kisaragi!!!" She jumped up and struck a pose on her barstool, promptly loosing her balance and tumbling to the floor.
"Owww…" She whined rubbing her butt… "Seriously Boobs…invest in some carpet will ya?"
Cloud snorted and poured himself some coffee, assured now that Yuffie would be fine.
"Alright…who do you have in mind?" Tifa asked, holding her hands up in surrender.
The thief grinned devilishly and winked at the well endowed brunette, "I was thinking maybe chocobo-butt here…" She waved a hand over at Cloud,
Glowing blue eyes shot to her before the blonde choked on his coffee and started coughing. Tifa and Yuffie burst out laughing as the former started patting Cloud's back.
Yuffie skipped over to the recovering Cloud and elbowed him in the ribs, "Well whaddya say Spike?"
The swordsman blushed slightly, "I'm flattered Yuffie but….uh…I…um…I've got some…deliveries to make, yeah! See you two later!" And with that the blonde dashed up the stairs, leaving the two women alone with their laugher.
"Oh that was funny Yuffie…" Tifa smiled, her tone suddenly took on a dangerous edge, "But you weren't serious right?"
Yuffie offered a weak smile, "It was just a joke Boobs…relax…I so don't want to marry that Chocobo butt."
"Then who?" Tifa asked, sliding the ninja some tea.
Yuffie glanced out the window, "I don't know Teef…"
Sensing her friend's unusually damp mood, "Well let's run through a list then, how many guys do you know?"
"Uhh…" Yuffie brought up a hand and started counting off on her fingers, "Chocobo- butt: off limits, Cancer – sticks: married, Red: different species, "Denz: too young, Barret: too old, Reno: gross, Rufus: hell no, Rude: barely know 'im, Tsung: off limits, Kadaj: dead, Yazoo: dead, Loz: dead, Silver-Haired Maniac: HELL NO! Plus he's dead, and Broody McBrood-A-Lot: is staring at a dead chick in a crystal."
"Oh…" Tifa murmured. She looked up with a slight twinkle in her eye, "So the only one you'd really go for is Vincent."
Yuffie's eyes shot up from her tea, "What?! I never said that!!"
"But he's the only one that you haven't flat out eliminated," Tifa pointed out, washing a glass.
"Erk….ehhh…" Yuffie muttered, "Ya know what Teef? You suck."
Tifa smiled at her, "Why not Vincent? You two already know each other."
Yuffie shook her head fiercely, "No way Tifa! Bad idea! Vinnie is a one-woman kinda guy. And he's already found her. She's frozen in a crystal."
"And she died, thirty years ago," Tifa reminded her.
"And Vinnie JUST got over her," Yuffie finished, "Besides, I don't wanna do something like that to him…thanks for the tea. Ima go take a nap." The ninja hopped off her stool and bounded up the stairs.
"OH! Yuffie! Rooms 3 and 4 are taken!" Tifa called after her.
"What?!" Yuffie cried, running back downstairs. She poked her head around the corner, "You know number 4 is my favorite, why'd you give it up?!"
"Well, it's Vincent's favorite too," Tifa explained, "Take it up with him."
Yuffie's eyes widened, "The vampire's here?!" She looked behind her to make sure he wasn't there, "Do me a favor and don't tell him about the wedding thing, ok!?"
Tifa opened her mouth to ask why, but Yuffie had already darted upstairs. She glanced behind her at the framed picture of AVALANCHE, "What should I do…hmm, Aerith?"
The woman in the pink dress simply smiled silently back at her. Tifa sighed as she heard a loud banging upstairs, followed by and even louder, "VALENTINE! GET YOUR VAMPIRE ASS OUTTA MY ROOM!!!"
It was certainly going to be much livelier around here for the next six months.
…I have skool tomorrow… _'
