Christmas in June Ch.2
~~~
Cloud wasn’t sure how much time had passed, all he knew was that his head was throbbing, his back ached and his mouth tasted of blood. Opening his eyes took an effort but when he did, his breath caught as he stared at the sleeping man curled up beside him.
Blazing red hair tied back in a ponytail, scars underneath both eyes, a black bruise forming just above closed eyes, and the expression of complete relaxation shown clear upon the red head’s face. Cloud bit his bottom lip and glanced downward, taking in the dishevelled shirt and pants. The man shifted in his sleep and Cloud immediately glanced at the sleep filled eyes that lazily opened and stared at him.
Reno swallowed as he stared into baby blue eyes and felt his pulse take off, his mind clearing any vestiges of sleep. How many times had he wished the blonde in his bed? How many times had he dared to hope to see those blue eyes look at him in the morning light? All of that was in the past and Reno knew to never take something for granted because it most likely wouldn’t be there the next day. He had to say something, just something to break the silence!
“Hi,” The Turk croaked.
Cloud stared at the red head and Reno felt himself start to sweat. How the fuck was he gonna explain how the two of them ended up in bed together without sounding like some sex freak? Not that he was mind you, but people did have to keep up appearances. Confusion once more in the blonde’s eyes and Reno watched transfixed as a small pink tongue peeked out and licked lips that the Turk had only dreamed about.
“Who… are you…?”
Thousands of answers swirled through Reno’s head, each with a different answer and a possible outcome to each question asked. He could already feel his head start to throb just thinking about it all. Just to save himself a headache; Reno would answer truthfully and kick himself in the head when he felt better. “The name’s Reno,” a cocky grin, if you could call someone with an eggplant coloured forehead cocky.
Cloud blinked and frowned. “And how do I know you?”
‘Well I almost fucked your ass in a club, gave you a lift, twice, and got you off talking dirty on the phone really early in the morning.’ Reno mentally purred but slapped that perverted side away and smiled warmly at the now suspicious blonde. At least he hoped it was a warm smile. “I give you a ride occasionally,” The Turk shrugged his shoulders and barely held back the cringe at the glare that Cloud sent his way.
“I’m not into guys.” The small blonde growled.
Reno felt his jaw drop, even though he was lying on his side facing the blonde, his mouth hung open. Sure Cloud had managed to smash his head on the dashboard, and yes the blonde had dried blood on his face but to not like guys! The red head began to mentally pray to as many gods as he could that Cloud hadn’t been permanently damaged in the accident. Already he could imagine when Zack came back and found out that his sweet submissive little blonde was declaring himself straight. “I wonder if there’s a sale on halo’s in Wutai.” Reno mumbled, staring past the blonde at the wall behind him.
“Excuse me?” Curt and vicious and Reno eyed the laid back blonde.
“Just mumbling something; so tell me,” The red head asked, going into auto-Turk mode. “How much do you remember?”
Cloud opened his mouth to speak and stopped, a puzzled expression on his face like that of a puppy trying it’s hardest to learn a new trick. “Just…” Cloud closed his eyes, frowning, desperately attempting to grab something from his memories. “Just waking up with you…” He opened his eyes, worry eating away at the viciousness that Reno saw plane as day inside those brilliant eyes.
Auto-Turk disengaging, returning to hanger, Roger. Reno nodded and moved to sit up before he flopped back on the bed and groaned at the wave of dizziness that overcame him. “So, you don’t remember anything?” He asked, lifting his hand and felt the muscles in his shoulder burn slightly at the task.
Slowly moving to lay on his back, Cloud watched Reno’s hand glide back and fourth in the air, eyes drifting half closed. “Nothing,”
When the Soldier’s are away, the Turks will play. Feeling a grin slip onto his face, Reno dropped his hand and continued to stare up at the ceiling. “So how do you know you don’t like guys?”
A low growl beside him and Reno watched half amused/half concerned as Cloud sat up in the bed and crawled off of the bed, leaving the room. Minuets later, a yelp was heard followed by a loud crash and Reno chuckled, turning over and learning over to grab the take-out box that lay beside his bed. He popped it open and pulled out a shimmering blue orb. “Cure 1,” Reno muttered and felt his body instantly hum with the energy. No wonder SOLDIER kept running out of the stuff, it was slightly more addictive then liquor. Speaking of liquor, feeling refreshed and slightly buzzed, Reno easily climbed out of the bed and walked out of the bedroom, cracking his neck and feeling his joints pop, he held back the laughter upon seeing the blonde.
Cloud was lying flat on his back, right hand to his head and his left clinging onto a pizza box as if his life depended on it. ‘Probably does,’ Reno grinned and still holding the material in his hand, held it above Cloud and promptly let the young blonde par take of the addiction so affectionately known to the Turks, and Soldier’s alike, as ‘Buzzing’.
Seconds past and Cloud removed his hand from his head, looking puzzled as he sat up and felt his head. “Better?” Reno asked, sitting down on the couch Cloud had just nearly gotten too and grinned down at the poor dazed cadet. Nodding mutely, the blonde just sat there on the floor before releasing the pizza box from his death hold and moving to sit beside the red head on the couch.
“So what do you have against man on man, anyway?” Reno suddenly asked, his curiosity getting the better of him; Even though he had asked at least twice already.
A long, dragged out, tired sigh beside him. “I don’t know okay! I just know that I don’t want to do it with another guy!”
“Then what about Zack?” Reno asked and immediately regretted his question, kicking himself for letting it get out.
“Who’s Zack?”
Almost hoping, nay, praying to the gods and all the creatures on the planet, Reno turned his face to see Clouds and nearly fainted at the confusion he saw there.
“What? Is he my brother?”
Reno smiled at Cloud and brought a hand up to fun his fingers through Clouds blonde hair, ignoring the glaring he got at that. “Just a friend babe, just a friend.”

Response to reviewers:
squalmasy: The Reno plot bunnies are starting to make the rounds on the authors and seems to be infecting everybody as of late XD It’s probably due to Advent Children coming out and see how hot the red head is has trigged something within us all.
Tainted Dreams/YoukaiObessed: God, yes the possibilities! I hope to exploit as many as possible *evil grin*
Unknown: Guwahaha! Here’s more Reno and Cloud!
Birdie: And I have continued ^_~ I know, it’s almost like he constantly carrys around that ‘bait’ material he had when he was doing flashbacks :p
Kumi: IT WILL NOT ROT! *pokes recently dead muse corpse* o_o *licks lollie*
Minako: It’s set before FF7, pre-game in a small universe that I’ve honed after many hours of playing zombie games. Tifa won’t show up (and it’s not because I hate her, I just dislike her character and the fact that she doesn’t deserve Cloud) here but she’s randomly mentioned in other stories. After all, Tifa was Cloud’s first love (if you can call it that.).
