Elena and Tseng were spending the morning (once again) going through and sorting all the paperwork in his office.
“So maybe after we get all this paperwork finished we could get some dinner, together?” Elena asked, looking up at Tseng, eyes full of adoration. She thought that doing paperwork was the most boring thing that she could ever do in her life, but if it meant being with Tseng, she’d put up with anything, even boring paperwork.
“I highly doubt it. It’s going to take a very long time to go through all of these files. Some of these need to be updated with things that have happened in the past four years. The others aren’t nearly complete at all! When will they learn to file things correctly for once?” Tseng said, shaking his head as he looked at a pile of papers sitting in front of him.
Elena sighed, looking down dejectedly. “Yes sir.”
~~--~~
Reno came running in and threw the door open which caused a gust of wind to blow through, rustling his hair and jacket tails, but also sending most of the pages on Tseng’s desk flying. “Stop the presses! Hold everything! I got some BIG news, yo!”
Tseng looked at the papers, mouth gaping, then looked up at Reno and glared at him. “Reno….you’d better have a damn good reason for messing up my paperwork! I’ve got several demotion papers lying around here! I will use one on you!”
“Aww, now you don’t wanna do that Director! You’d miss me too much!”
Tseng glared at him, as he and Elena began to pick up the papers on the floor. “Like the small village misses the plague.”
Reno laughed, slapping him on the back. “Trust me, it’s worth it Director. So I got some information that Rude has taken Tifa to the Gold Saucer, yo! This’ll be the perfect time for us to go and get the information about AVALANCHE’s oil field for the boss!”
Elena looked up at him worriedly. “D-did you hear that from Rude?” She asked hesitantly.
Reno just shook his head. “Naw. Rude doesn’t tell me anything when it comes to Tifa. He hasn’t been telling me anything recently! It’s like he hates me or something!”
Tseng raised his eyebrow at him, “And how good is the information Reno? I don’t want to be walking into a trap.”
“My mole is really reliable. The information is 100% true, the bar and home are completely empty for the day.”
“How on Earth did you get a mole in AVALANCHE? It took Reeve a long time to get Cait Sith to infiltrate Cloud’s group! How is it you get a mole in AVALANCHE who willingly wants to help ShinRa?” Elena asked disbelievingly.
Reno waved his finger in the air. “Tsk. Tsk, rookie. Don’t you know that the Turks aren’t allowed to talk about how we got our moles. It’s to protect their auto…umm…ano…umm…y’know to protect the…umm….”
“Anonymity?” Tseng asked raising his eyebrow again.
Reno nodded eagerly. “Yeah! That’s the word, yo! You’re so smart Director! You should get a promotion or be in charge of something! Cause you know all the big words!”
Tseng rolled his eyes. “Yes, maybe I can be put in charge of something that doesn’t get on my nerves all the time!”
“Y’know Director, you really should take a vacation. I hear Costa del Sol is really nice this time of year.”
Elena’s ears perked up. “Maybe I could go with you boss! I could use a vacation too! And Costa sounds really nice and romantic!” She quickly looked back down at the papers she was sorting when Tseng and Reno glanced over at her. “Or I could just stay here and do unimportant boring rookie work.”
~~--~~
“Oh hey Tifa! How’s it going?”
“Reno…what are you doing? Why did you destroy my house?” Tifa looked around urgently. “Where’s Marlene? I swear if you hurt her…..”
“Don’t worry, I didn’t hurt the brat, yo. It’s against the Turks code to hurt children.”
Tifa raised an eyebrow at him. “Somehow I doubt that.”
“No seriously! It just got added this year! It’s in our contract and everything! I think the Director added it cause of the whole issue with that Ancient chick or whatever.” Reno said shrugging his shoulders. “The brat wouldn’t have been able to stop us anyway.”
“Us? What do you mean us?”
“Yeah, everyone was here! Me, Tseng and even the Rookie. ‘Course she didn’t do much to help at all! She just kept sayin’ that this was a bad idea or whatever. I don’t know, I don’t really pay attention when she starts whining like that. Have you heard her voice when she’s whining? It’s all pitched and stuff! It’s soo annoying!”
Tifa rolled her eyes at him “That still doesn’t explain what the hell you were doing here! And why my house is in shambles!”
Reno looked over at Rude, who was standing in one corner of the room, nervously adjusting his tie, his watch, and whatever else he could get his hands on. “Maybe you should tell her what’s going on partner. I mean she is your girlfriend after all. And this was yourmission.”
Tifa slowly turned to look at Rude, her body felt like it was being covered in ice. “R…Rude? What is he talking about?”
Rude sighed and ran a hand over his bald head as he began to pace nervously. “Tifa, before I say anything, I just want you to know that I love you very much, I have for a long time now.”
Tifa smiled a little, but the smiled failed to reach her eyes as she nodded once. “I love you too, please, what is Reno talking about Rude? What mission?”
Rude looked over at Reno and gave him a long hard glare. “Well, it’s a long story, maybe you’d better sit down?” He said gently, leading her to the couch and helping her to sit, he then continued his pacing. “Where should I begin?” He muttered, rubbing his forehead with his hand.
“You can first start off by telling me what Reno is holding in his hand!” She said, glaring at him.
“Papers. He’s holding papers. Important papers dealing with the oil field.”
“B-but I didn’t have any papers about it! Just some letters Barret sent to Marlene and maybe a few others things!” She looked up at Rude eyes watering. “I promise I didn’t lie to you!”
Rude smiled down gently at her, putting his hand on her face. “I know you didn’t Tifa.”
“Nah, it’s more like he’s been lying to you this entire time, yo! Why don’t you tell her how the President told you to make Tifa fall in love with you so that way you could get information on the oil field for him?”
Tifa quickly sat back on the couch, pulling herself away from Rude’s touch. “W-what???”
“Yeah. And tell her how you took her on all those trips just to get her to fall in love with you and how they meant nothing at all to you.”
Tifa covered her mouth with one hand as her eyes began to overflow with tears. “T-that’s not true is it Rude? It just can’t be true! Tell me you didn’t ask me out just because of the oil field and on President Rufus’ orders! Please Rude! Tell me that’s not true!” She begged looking up at him.
Rude stopped his pacing and stood in front of her and nodded. “It’s true, Tifa. President Rufus did ask me to do this because of the oil field. He did want me to ask you out because he wants information about it. But I swear to you Tifa, I never wanted to do to hurt you, I only did it because I care about you, I wanted to try and make you feel better! I never had an intention of going through with the actual mission!” He said as he put his hands gently on her shoulders.
Tifa threw his arms of her and stood up and walked away from him, glaring at him. “You lied to me Rude! You told me when first asked me out that you weren’t doing it because of the oil field! Do you remember that Rude? Or were you lying to me then too?”
Rude raised an eyebrow at her. “So you wanted me to tell you, that I was only asking you out because of the oil field?”
“It would’ve been nice to know that! That way I wouldn’t have to suspect everything you’ve told me recently! Were you ever going to tell me Rude? Or was I going to have to find this out from Reno of all damn people!”
“I was going to tell you Tifa.”
“Bull. Just when exactly were you going to tell me?”
“I was going to tell you today. I was afraid of someone else coming after you and hurting you Tifa. I didn‘t tell you this to protect you and keep you safe.” He said as he looked down at his feet.
“I don’t believe you Rude! I don’t believe you one bit! How the hell was lying to me keeping me safe?! I’m such a stupid idiot! I let myself fall in love with a Turk! I defended you when my friends were attacking you! I loved you damn it! As weird as it seems I lovedyou! You work for ShinRa, thee most evil, vile, despicable companies in the world! A company I would love to destroy for all the evil it‘s done! And yet, I was willing to look past all of that because I loved you! But maybe Barret was right! Maybe everyone in ShinRa is just pure evil and has no hope of ever absolving their sins!”
Rude visibly flinched at her usage of loved. “And I loved you too Tifa! That’s why I had to lie! I would rather die than let anyone at ShinRa try to hurt you!”
“So you finally decided to grace me with the truth. Why?” She asked glaring at him.
“I didn’t want you getting hurt.” He said softly. “President Rufus told me that if I didn’t get the information from you he’d send someone else to attack you and torture you! Do you think I wanted that?”
“He’s right you know. And not everyone is unwilling to hurt you as Rude is, yo. The Turks are known of kidnapping, murdering, torturing and all kinds of other bad stuff. Just ask that Ancient chick and Cloud.”
Tifa turned to glare at Reno. “Reno, for once in your damn life just shut up! So help me if I hear so much as one syllable from you I will hurl you through something so hard that you will be in a wheelchair for the rest of your life. Got it?”
Reno nodded and he crossed his arms in front of his chest. “Got it. My lips are sealed. Oh yeah, Rude be sure and tell her how this whole ‘relationship’ of yours was a just a big illusion and that you weren’t really in love with her?”
Tifa stopped her pacing and stared at Rude, covering her mouth with her hands, crying. “W-what?! Y-you never loved me?”
Rude reached out to touch her, “That’s not true Tifa. I do love you.”
Tifa sobbed and wrapped her arms around herself tightly, backing away from him “W-was any of this real Rude? Did you even care about me at all? Or was it all just lies?” She whispered.
Rude just looked down and sighed a bit, trying to gather his thoughts.
“Look Tifa, we’re Turks. We can make people believe what we want them to believe, whether or not it’s the truth.” Reno said, looking up at the ceiling. “It’s what we do and it’s what we’re good at. That’s the truth.”
Tifa looked back to Rude, tear streaming down her face. “I-if you would’ve told me the truth Rude, we may have been able to save what we have.”
“Please Tifa, we still can. You just have to believe me.” Rude said, grasping at straws.
Tifa shook her eye, hugging herself even more tightly. “We can’t now Rude. You lied to me about something really important! What’s to stop you from lying again to me? I can’t live like that Rude! W-we’re done! I don’t want to see you anymore! N-now both of you get out of my house!” Tifa whispered, sobbing even harder.
Rude looked at her, shocked. “T-Tifa, please listen….”
Tifa looked at him, with a hard look in her eyes but it was ruined by her crying, she had given up on trying to stop herself from crying. . “No, you listen! Do you even know what I was like before? I was drowning myself in liquor! I was moping around for a damn future that had little hope of ever happening! Then I started dating you Rude, and I was so happy! I went against my friends to date you! I even went against my own beliefs to date you! I thought it would’ve been worth it!” Tifa sighed a bit, angrily. “I was such an idiot for agreeing to date you! I thought that our happiness would last! And now I find out that our entire relationship was nothing but a lie?! I hate you Rude! I hate you!” She cried as she slapped him with the limited amount of strength that she could muster.
Rude just stood there, feeling the sting of the slap, knowing that soon it would become a giant red mark. “Tifa..”
“Why are you still here?” Tifa sobbed. “I want the both of you out of my sight now, y-you stupid Turks!”
Reno walked over to Rude and grabbed his arm and pulled him towards the door. “You heard her partner. Let’s get out of here and show the President what we have.”
Tifa heard the door close behind her and she fell to her knees, sobbing even more. “NOOO!!!” She screamed, her entire world going cold and dark again.

~~--~~
Rude winced again as he heard her scream. -I’m so sorry, Tifa. I never wanted it to end this way.-
Reno just grinned at looked over at Rude, placing his hand on his shoulder. “Y’know I’m sorry that this happened to ya bro, but we’re Turks. We don’t get the happily ever crap or whatever it’s called. So what do ya say we go and hit the bar after we drop these papers off for the President?”
The hand was quickly removed by Rude who was gripping it so hard that the bones in Reno’s hand began to creak and crack. “Don’t touch me.” Rude didn’t even spare Reno a glance as he walked off back to his apartment.
