Was reading the Strifehart Kink Meme, and got an idea that while it fits a few prompts on there, isn't really a fill for them.
Started with the prompt:
"Because I'm a meanie-face, I'd like some unrequited CLC. And I want it to be Cloud suffering heartbroken who is the unfortunate one. Bonus points if Leon's with another guy!"
So. My twisted brain came up with this.
Is suposed to be a one shot, but I've broken it up between chapters depending on the POV at the moment, cause that changes from time to time.
A Kiss of Black and White
By Momonster
Fandom: Post-Kingdom Hearts II
Pairings: Past Seph/Zack/Cloud, Past Squall/Rinoa, Present CLC
Warnings: Crazy DF!Rinoa, Momo's insanity, Seph's hotness, and Zack's utter nonsense making.
Oh, blood and guts and a spine being broken in two and general ew-ness

Summary: That kiss hurt more than it should have.

That kiss hurt more than it should have.
I had had shut the world out, and had locked my heart up tight.
Regret after regret after death after heartache…I had shut myself away from anymore pain.
And yet, coming to this world simply to look for my prey – I will kill him this time even if it meant destroying myself, he will die he will rue the day he destroyed my happiness! – someone found the backdoor I didn't know I left.
– I mean, hells bells a fucking back door? Probably Zack's fault, he's always
fucking with me even though he's dead. –
Sephiroth is slain. No longer was there a shadow at my back that would destroy everything I held dear, and with the Darkness no longer suffocating my heart, I could see what I wanted.
I wanted to tell Leon I love him.
And for all my insecurities, the emotionless state I've been in for so long emotion seemed alien, I know love.
Knew love.
For two years now – since I met him, watched Radiant Garden return, watched the Restoration continue to rebuild our new home, killed off any and all Darkness dwelling within myself until I could truly, happily smile – Leon and I had been casual lovers.
It was ironic that of the two of us; I realized I was in love, truly understood it.
I wanted to tell him tonight.
But…still I was hours too late.
I was supposed to be emotionless. I let something slip by, and now it burns.
And it's all because of a group of people, and a single woman who screamed "Squall!"
Quistis Trepe
Zell Dincht
Selphie Tilmitt
Irvine Kinneas
And then…Rinoa Heartilly
The group of people I lead to him, knowing they were looking for him by the description they gave.
After all, who else wears so much leather and has a large scar on his face?
Well, that was the description that Heartilly woman gave.
Said woman, who the moment she saw Leon, threw her hands up and screamed his name – Squall isn't his name, there's no Squall here! – immediately jumping onto his lap, sticking her tongue down his throat.
That kiss hurt more than it should have.
It took five seconds for Leon to recover, and then promptly respond, and I had to leave.
I slipped out before everyone could even react to the free show Leon gave them all and started for the bailey, forgoing Tsurugi.
I had promised myself. I had sworn I'd never give myself a reason to feel this, didn't I? After Sephiroth betrayed us, then Zack died to save me, I sworn I'd never let my heart be torn apart like this.
Memories from the love making the night before, and the words I whispered into the already asleep Leon's ear…
So much for my word.
I should have known better.
PT1 here.
