Lean On Me (FF7)

~Yuffie's POV~

"There you go, Reno," I shove the know healed Turk out the door.

"Ow! My shlaunpouffa hurts!"

"Your what?"

"Shlaunpouffa!"

"... Okay?"

"Sorry, I'm bored. You guys don't do much, do you?" he frowns, plopping his butt down on a the floor.

"I don't know," I shrug. "I'm hungry, but I'm lazy to go to the kitchen."

"Don't you have chocobos on board or something?"

"They're all back at the farm." Then my faces brightens when I get a wonderful and totally amazing idea. I literally jump onto his back. "Giddyap!"

"Oh boy," he rolls his eyes, standing. Then he walks toward the kitchen.

"Faster!" I demand.

"Nah."

"Go faster!" I say, kicking him on the butt.

"Okay, sorry! Geeze..." He sighs, jogging around the ship.

"Hey Cloud, I caught a wild idiot!" I call as we pass the spikey haired boy.

"Congrats?" he raises an eyebrow.

"See? He loves meh," I giggle.

"Are you on crack?" Reno shakes his head. "No, don't reply. I'm scared of the answer."

"Hey!" I hit him on the sit of his head playfully, which makes him tumble into the wall.

"Ouch."

"You are one stupid idiot," I shake my head, standing.

"Well... Wait, what?"

I just roll my eyes and stand up, brushing imaginary dirt off my legs and shoulders.

"Hey, did you see Cloud's face when we walked by?"

"No?" I raise my eyebrows as Reno stands, easily standing way over me. He's like six feet tall or something, about the same height as Vincent. Why do you care? Well I'm 5'2, so I kinda have to look UP to see anyone's face. I'm the shortest human being on board, unfortunately.

"He was so jealous," he smirks at me. I smirk back, catching his plan.

"I like the way you think, sir."

Me and Reno wander down the halls, side by side, and talk about any random thing. Sometimes this guy cracks me up. Most of the time I want to punch him.

"There he is," he mutters as we make our way towards Cloud. We walk by, chatting about... the weather? Anyway, we don't even acknowledge his presence and I throw my head back, laughing at something Reno said, which was along the lines of: "I think the world would just melt away if it rained Barrets one day. Never mind melt, it'd probably spontaneously combust."

"Hey Yuffie," Cloud says casually to get my attention. I glance back at him and give him a fake, weak smile and then go back to talking to Reno. Out of the corner of my eye, I see his head drop a little and his hands get shoved into his pockets, as usual.

"It's working," Reno whispers.

"I'm hungry!" I say loudly.

"Then get some food, woman!" he says in a 'duh' voice.

"Cmon," I take his head and we turn around, rushing past Cloud again. He watches us go, and I swear he's turning green. And not because he's sick.
