Rude slowly opened his eyes as he switched off his alarm clock. He sat up in his bed for a few minutes, taking everything in. Today he was taking Tifa on a three day trip to Costa del Sol. –I can’t believe it.- He thought as he stood up and stretched. –This has to be a dream. I've been dating Tifa for almost 3 months now. – He got himself ready for his day, trying to be quiet and not wake Reno, he knew if he woke Reno up there would be nothing but complaints about how he was being left behind and how he wanted to go. He re-checked his suit case for the third time since packing it, making sure he had everything that he would need, this time; however, he noticed that something seemed odd. He looked around his room, and in the living room, then angrily walked to Reno’s room and pounded on his door.“Why do you have to knock on my door so early, man?” Reno asked as he opened his door, yawning a little.
“Where…are….they?” He asked glaring at Reno.
“Where are what partner?” He asked, trying to pull off an innocent face.
“You know damn well what I’m taking about.” He said, pounding his fist against the door frame. Where are my sunglasses?”
Reno rolled his eyes at him. “ You've got a pair on your face, Rude.”
“I’m not talking about these. Where are all my other pairs of sunglasses? I have dozens of pairs of sunglasses. Why can’t I find them?”
“You must have lost them.”
“I don’t lose them. I have a specific place that I put them every night. The only one who could have gotten them is you. Now, tell me where they are.”
Reno just smiled and crossed his arms. “I hid them.”
“You….hid them?” He asked, shocked.
“Yup. I hid them. Every single pair.”
Rude moaned annoyed. “Reno! I don’t have time for this! I’m going to be late meeting Tifa.”
“Oh yeah, your little vacation to the beach. I completely forgot it was today. You should have told me you were going Rude. I would've made you a going away present. Maybe a cake or something.”
Rude sighed, getting irritated. “Just tell me where you hid them Reno.”
“Why should I? It’s not like you need all those sunglasses.”
“Tell me now. Otherwise I’ll spill to the boss about the 50th floor.”
“You wouldn't.” Reno said, calling his bluff.
Rude glanced at him over his sunglasses, crossing his arms. “Try me.”
Reno and Rude just stared at each other for a few minutes, until Reno sighed and uncrossed his arms. “I’ll give them back on one condition.”
“What’s the condition?”
“Take me with you.”
“No way. You’ll do something to ruin the trip. You’re staying here.”
“Fine.” Reno said shrugging as he turned back into his room. “I guess you’ll never get your sunglasses back now.”
Rude just stood there for a few moments, torn between getting his sunglasses back and having a nice quiet trip with Tifa. He sighed shaking his head, hoping that Tifa wouldn't be too upset with him. “Fine…..you can go. I swear if you do anything to ruin this relaxing vacation, you won’t be able to get any girl for weeks after I’m through with you. Understood??” He said giving Reno a hard look.
“Yeah. Yeah. I got it.” Reno said, just grinning.
“Fine. We’re leaving in 10 minutes.” Rude said, shaking his head. He turned to walk away but stopped. “Why are you so insistent about going with us? What’s at the beach that you could enjoy that much?”
“Two words Rude. Women. Bikinis.”
Rude shook his head again hoping he wasn't making a big mistake.
~~--~~
Tifa smiled as she finished her packing and closed up her suitcase. “There. That’s the last of it.” She looked at her watch and nodded. “Still got plenty of time to get Marlene down to the train station!” She grabbed her bag and headed down the stairs calling “Marlene! Are you ready to go yet? You’re gonna miss your train!”
Marlene came running down the stairs, holding her backpack in one hand and her suitcase in the other. “Yeah. I’m ready. I don’t see why I have to go to the oil site. I wanna go with you to the beach!”
Tifa sighed, shaking her head as she helped Marlene to put her backpack on. “ I've explained this to you several times. You can’t go on this trip. This trip is for Rude and I only.”
Marlene looked up at her and pouted, “But I've been really good! I should get to go too! I don’t get to go anywhere fun!”
Tifa shook her head as she adjusted Marlene’s bow. “You are going to go somewhere fun.” She leaned over and whispered, “I heard a rumor that your dad is going to take you and Denzel to the Gold Saucer.”
Marlene looked at her with a big smile. “Really? He said that??”
Tifa nodded and winked at her. “But it’s our little secret okay? Your dad wants to surprise you at the station. Now are you sure you want to go to some boring old beach?”
Marlene shook her head eagerly and ran over to the door. “No way! Come on! Let’s go! Let’s go! Hurry up! Hurry up!”
Tifa smiled as she picked up her suitcase and grabbed her keys as they headed for the door.
~~--~~
Marlene gave Tifa one last hug as she got ready to board her train. “Bye Tifa! See you in a couple of days!” She then ran to where Denzel was and gave him a hug.
Barret looked at Tifa worriedly, “Tifa, I want you to know that I've got a bad feeling about this…relationship you’re in with this Turk.”
“Barret, I’m a big girl now. I can take care of myself.” Tifa said meeting his hard gaze with one of her own.
“I just want you to be careful and take care of yourself. I don’t like that you are going on a trip with him! I don’t want anything bad to happen to you!”
“Barret, I’m going to be okay. Rude would never do anything to hurt me!”
“I still don’t like it; if something happened to you……I don’t know what Marlene’d do. We lost Cloud! We can’t lose you too! He’s just luring you in to hurt you Tifa!”
Tifa crossed her arms. “Barret, you’ve crossed the line. I am leaving. I am going on a relaxing trip for 3 days with a man that makes me feel good about myself. Who cares who he works for? Now you’d better get on your train before it leaves.”
Barret sighed and looked at Tifa, hopefully not for the last time. “I’ll drop Marlene back at the bar. Hopefully, I’ll see you when I get back. Remember Tifa, he’s a Turk. He probably doesn't care about you.” He then got on the train as the door closed and watched her as the train slowly began to pull away.
She breathed a sigh of relief as the train pulled away, tempted to stick her tongue out at him. –The only reason you say that is cause I’m the only one who’d watch Marlene for free!- She shook her head clear as she picked up her bag and smiled eagerly, forcing herself not to run as she went to meet up with Rude.
~~--~~
Rude stood waiting as patiently as he could for Tifa to come out of the station. He kept looking down at his watch and wanted to straighten his tie, but couldn't because Reno had forced him into the ridiculous outfit he was now wearing. He smiled as he saw Tifa run out of the station and look around for him.
Tifa looked around excitedly, her heart beating faster as she looked around for him, but she couldn't see him. She looked down dejectedly, as she leaned against her suitcase. “I guess he’s not here yet.” She said softly.
Rude saw Tifa sitting on her suit case, not twenty feet away from him. He smiled a bit, know that she didn't see him and didn't recognize him in his…..current outfit. He walked over to her and tapped her on his shoulder. “Hey there, what’s a pretty girl like you doing all alone?”
Tifa sighed, annoyed. –Great. Some loser is going to try and hit on me.- Tifa shook her head. “Look dude, I’m gonna warn you now my boyfriend should be here any minute. He’s really jealous and protective of me.” She couldn't help but add. “So I’d leave if I were you.”
Rude chuckled a bit; she wasn't paying attention at all. “He wouldn't scare me. What does your boyfriend look like? So I can see my competition.”
Tifa giggled a bit as she smiled happily, putting her hands together and interlacing her fingers. “Well let’s see, he’s tall, bald, very good looking and always wears a pair of sunglasses that I can never seem to get off of him. He seems like he’s a really mean guy, but underneath he’s actually a total sweetheart. He’ll be wearing what he always wears, a suit, in either black or blue.” Tifa said, gushing happily, thinking of him.
Rude laughed, unable to fool her any longer. “I gave you very good reasons for why I wear the suits.” He said, bending over and giving her a kiss on her cheek.
Tifa turned around and smiled even more. “Rude!” She said as she stood up and nearly knocked him over as she hugged him.
Rude was taken by surprise by her hug, but was able to steady himself in time. “Hi Tifa.”
Tifa looked at him annoyed as they let each other go a few moments later. “Where were you?” She asked, hands on her hips. “ I've been waiting for you for, like, ten minutes!”
“ I've been here the entire time. You didn't see me. I’m not in my….usual outfit.” He said, looking down embarrassed.
Tifa raised an eyebrow at him and then looked at what he was wearing, as her mouth fell open. “What on Gaia are you wearing????”
Rude looked down at his outfit which consisted of a t-shirt with a flowered pattern, khaki shorts and a pair of sandals. “I was forced into wearing this.”
Tifa hid her laugh behind her hand. “Well this certainly is an…interesting look for you, Rude.” She said as she picked up her suitcase with one hand and held his with the other.
“There is a breeze on my legs. It’s cold. I don’t like it.”
Tifa giggled again. “Oh my poor baby is out of his comfort zone. What were you going to do when we got to Costa?”
“Wear a suit?”
Tifa laughed harder and playfully hit his arm. “So you were going to willingly sit at the beach and get sand in your suit?”
Rude shook his head once as he led her away.
“So what did you have planned for us to do all weekend? Sit in the hotel room and have a staring contest?”
“Tifa, you would lose that one. All I do is stare at people. Spending a weekend in a hotel room with you does sound pretty nice though.”
Tifa blushed a little, thinking of all the things that they could do in a hotel room. “You’re no fun Rude! Why ask me to go to a beach if you aren't going to spend time with me?” She asked, pouting a little.
“To be with you without interruption from Reno or my job? To take you somewhere beautiful as you are?”
Tifa smiled a bit, looking down at her feet. “You really think I’m beautiful?”
Rude nodded once. “Of course you are.”
Tifa smiled again. “Thank you.”
Rude nodded once, and then sighed, looking up. “I’m sorry for not being able to go to the beach with you.”
Tifa looked up at him, concerned. “You don’t know how to swim? That’s not a problem; I’m a very good teacher! I taught Denzel how to swim.”
Rude shook his head.
Tifa thought about it and laughed. “Oh I know! You've never owned a swimsuit in your entire life! That’s okay! There is a place on the beach that sells swimsuit!”
Rude shook his head again. “No, I have a swimsuit and I know how to swim. It’s a part of the Turks job description.”
“Are you sick?” She asked worriedly, standing on the tips of her toes to place her hand on his forehead. “If you’re sick, we can go another time! I’ll take care of you and make you some soup that’s guaranteed to make anyone feel better!”
Rude smiled down at her, touched at her concern. He took her hand and gave it a kiss. “I’m not sick Tifa. It’s just….well….I don’t want…my sunglasses….broken.”
Tifa looked at him and laughed again. “Your sunglasses?! Rude honey, you always have at least 5 pairs of sunglasses on you at all times! So what are you worried about?”
Rude shifted nervously as they stopped with his helicopter in sight. “That’s the problem. Reno…..hid them.” He said frowning deeply. “I only have the pair I’m wearing and the pair I gave you. I know what beaches are like. Kids everywhere, balls flying in the air...that means my sunglasses will break for sure. I can’t have that! You have fun on the beach Tifa. I’ll be in our room, watching from the window.”
Tifa huffed annoyed, but then grinned wickedly as an idea came to her. “Fine then Rude, you can stay in the hotel room all weekend. I, however, will be at the beach in my swimsuit. Laying out in the sun, swimming in ocean. Then I will take myself to a lovely dinner in my beautiful dress.”
Rude looked down at Tifa, debating on staying in the room, where it was safe and being down at the beach seeing Tifa in her swimsuit. “Tifa you aren't being fair.”
Tifa smiled, knowing she had him cornered. “As an added bonus, I promise that if anything happens to your sunglasses, you can temporarily borrow mine.”
“Are you sure?”
“You have to promise that you’ll give them back to me, okay?”
“Fine, I promise you’ll get your sunglasses back at the end of the vacation if mine get broken.”
Tifa smiled and held her hand out. “Okay, now we shake on it.”
Rude took her hand and shook it.
Tifa then grabbed his arm as he led her to his helicopter. “ I've never been in a helicopter before!”
“It’s an amazing view. I promise you’ll enjoy it.”
“I’m sorry Reno took your sunglasses Rude, but let’s not that spoil our trip.”
Rude hesitated for minute. “Well that’s the thing Tifa, Reno and I came up with a…..compromise to the situation.”
“A compromise? Don’t tell me….” She looked at the helicopter and moaned.
~~--~~
Reno stood by the helicopter and smiled eagerly, also wearing a flowered t-shit, but his was mostly unbuttoned. “Heeyy, Tifaa! I’m crashing this little trip of yours! It’s not just the two of you anymore!”
Rude looked at Tifa, nervously, hoping this wouldn't spoil their date. “I’m so sorry Tifa. He wouldn't agree to anything else. I tried to talk him out of it.”
Tifa just glared at him. “I’m mad at you right now! I’m not going to speak with you until we get to Costa, got it?” She asked as she walked away from him and towards Reno as she glared at him. “I swear to the Lifestream if you do anything else, and I mean anything else, to ruin our vacation, I will personally see to it that you will NEVER be able to enjoy female company again!” She said as she climbed into the back and turned her head from them.
Reno just laughed as he head to the co-pilots seat; however, Rude stopped him before he was able to get in.
“So help me Reno, you do anything else to ruin this and you are going to lose all pizza privileges for a month!”
“But Rude, how will I survive without my pizza?! What will I eat?”
“I’m sure you’ll think of something.” He stated as he gave Tifa a headset and helped her to get situated and then buckled himself in, as he started to prepare the helicopter for take off.
Reno moaned loudly, running his hand through his hair, but then smiled a bit. –He only said anything else. He didn't say anything about plans that are already in place.- He grinned as he got into the helicopter and buckled himself in.
“Do I want to know what you are grinning about?” Rude asked, raising an eyebrow at Reno.
“Just thinking about all the babes in bikinis, partner.” He said, putting his headset on. “Alright, let’s get this vacation started lovebirds.”
Tifa and Rude rolled their eyes at Reno as the helicopter took off into the air.
