part two

It was several days after the ominous predection.Everyone got on with their lives well,except for Hiro who keeped to himself in his room.
"I'm worried about Hiro."Tifa said wiping off the bar.
"Don't worry about the chief.He's cool under pressure."Ronfar said leaning on the bar."He won't let that get to him."
Jean looked at Ronfar."He's been in his room for three days."
Leo looked at her from the end of the bar."It's not good."
"No it's not."Tifa said."He always comes to the bar and talks."
Vincent looked at Tifa then to Leo."Being alone is not a bad thing."
"True."Leo replied."Maybe he'll come out by himself."
Tifa looked and stoped wiping the bar."Your not helping."She walked to the end of the bar."I'm going to go talk to him."
The others watched her go.
"Tifa has grown very fond of him."Vincent said leaning on the bar.
"Hiro's in love with Lucia."Jean replied.
Vincent nodded."It seems He hasn't told her that."
Tifa walked down the hall to Hiro's room,and knocked on the door. "Hiro?"She called."You there?"
"Go away!"
"Hiro.You can't stay in there forever."Tifa called to him through the door.
"Yes I can."Hiro called back.
"Why?Because of what that predection said?"
"I don't want anyone getting hurt because of me."Hiro said.
"No one will."Tifa said."Something dear to you can be anything.You said your boomerang was something dear to you,because it was given to you from your father.right?"
"I guess so."Hiro said.
"Then what's keeping you in that room,that you can't come out?"Tifa said leaning on the door."I've missed you."
The door knob turned and Tifa got up,the door opened and Hiro's head popped out.
"Nothing I supose."He said."You have?"
"You look scruffy."Tifa smiled rubbing his cheek."Don't you shave?"
Hiro looked at her and rubbed his cheek."I haven't had time to shave."
"Well make time."Tifa said."let's go"She said",P.U!You need a shower!Get some clothes."
Hiro opened the door and Tifa walked in and got some clean clothes.
Hiro smirked at her."Your giving me a shower too?"
Tifa looked at him."If I have to.I'm going to make you look respectable."She said grabbing his arm."Let's go."
Tifa dragged him down the hall to the bathroom.
"Get in there and get washed up."She said shoving him in.
"O.k."Hiro said."But I'm only going to sit here."
Tifa opened the door and saw Hiro sitting on the toliet."Get undressed to take a shower."
"No."Hiro said looking at her."You can't make me."
Tifa sighed and walked in closing the door behind her."Get up."
Hiro looked at her."No."
"Get up!"
Hiro shrugged and stood up.
Tifa walked over and took off Hiro's cloak.
"What are you doing?"Hiro said jokingly.
"What's it look like?"Tifa said going after his shirt."I'm helping you."
"Oh?"Hiro said."Going to shower me too?"
Tifa looked at him finally getting his shirt."What?"
Hiro looked at her."You'll get all wet.Better take them off."
"What?"Then she realized."Are you saying to only way you'll take a shower is if I..."She looked up."Take one with you?"
"You tell me."Hiro said pulling her close and kissing her.
