Tifa always had a crush on you one way or another, ever since you were kids. Everyone in Avalanche knows it though it flusters her to no end.

The way she would stare when she thought no one was looking and the way she’s eager to be by your side in your escapades.

Love would be a better adjective to describe it. She’s too shy to tell you how she feels so she’ll settle on the smaller things.

As she works at the bar like she always does late at night you sit at the stool in front of her, talking about god knows what. She’s half-listening.

Her pinky intertwined with yours as you didn’t even seem to notice. Better for her anyway.
