Yeah, I don't really know what this is about... it just sorta came out. (Whee, a rhyme!) Takes place a few years after KH2 and Advent Children (read: Riku is an adult and Cloud is more at peace).

If Riku was uncomfortable with the hand cradling the back of his head, fingers tangled in his hair, he wouldn't breathe a word of it; he was still amazed that after all he'd done, someone would even want to be this close to him.
And if Cloud was distracted by the soft silver bangs tickling his face as the young man leaned over him, intense aquamarine eyes staring into intense blue-green ones, he didn't show it; he was thankful for the very presence of the person before him.
If Riku minded the slow, firm slide of Cloud's hand along his ribs and hip, he still couldn't help the heartfelt shiver; the blond man's touch affected him that much.
And if Cloud minded the unpracticed collision of Riku's teeth against his own, he certainly wouldn't tell; they'd come so far in such a short time, and he wasn't willing to risk the younger man's confidence.
If Riku moaned a little too loud when their kiss took on a new intensity, Cloud's encouraging response kept him from holding back; even the simplest of touches and softest of sounds had tremendous meaning to them now.
And if both of them shattered when Cloud rolled his hips against Riku's thighs one last time, neither man could really bring themselves to care; they were together, and together they were whole.
That was all that mattered.
