A/N: This is dedicated to my sister. This plot is originally hers, however, she gave me permission to rewrite it to reflect the changes that have come about her character these past years. And now, my dear readers, I get to share this with you. Please enjoy. (also, rating is for Kiani's potty mouth :p )
Reno walked down the streets of Midgar, doing his patrols like the good little peon that he was. Hearing a noise, he pulled out his Electrorod, aptly named Sparky, and turned down the alleyway the sound came from. Hopefully it was nothing, and he could continue on his route as if nothing had happened. If he would come upon an AVALANCHE member, well. . .his night would just get longer.
A hand suddenly fisted in the back of his suit jacket, and before he could retaliate, the redhead was thrown up against the wall. A familiar gun was suddenly shoved in his face, a dainty hand grasping his tie to keep him in place unless he wanted to choke himself.
"Kiani, lookin' good!" Reno couldn't help but whistle in appreciation. The normally poised secretary looked disheveled, but he couldn't help but see that she was wearing his gift.
"Listen you little shit! Just because I went on ONE date with you, doesn't mean you get to-"
"I see you like the necklace," Reno interrupted, hoping that baiting her affection for him would overrun her wrath. For a moment, the Wutaiian was at a loss. Here was a man who had no fear of her and her rage. Well, she'd show him! "It looks good on you." Reno shifted in her grasp, taking note that his words made her pause again. "Would you say no if I asked you on a second date and got you matching earrings in exchange?" the Turks member asked curiously, noticing her grip on his tie loosen.
"Maybe," Kiani mumbled back, her grip loosening even more as the gun in her hand slowly lowered. "Wait, you can't buy my-"
"I'm not trying to buy your affection, Babe," Reno replied, noting that her body tensed at the nickname. "I merely want to adorn you with my affection, and it is the only way I know how to express it. Buying you nice things and seeing you wear them is enough for me," he added.
There was another moment of hesitation from her, and Reno was able to bring a hand up to slowly move her gun so it was finally pointed away from him. With her letting him, he was surprised when Kiani's hold on his tie tightened once more and she pulled him forward. The secretary kissed him, almost pushing his head back into the brick of the building behind him. It lasted for a mere few seconds before Kiani regained her head, and upon releasing him, she backed away until her back was against the other side of the alley.
"Next week, after work, drinks, just you and me," she demanded, her free hand coming up to finger the golden heart shaped locket that hung around her neck.
"Do you think that by our fourth date, I could give you a ring?" Reno teased her, and instead of the snappy reply he expected, Kiani merely flushed before darting away, leaving Reno more confused than ever. Only half a minute after the secretary had fled completely, did it occur to Reno, "I got a second date!"
A/N: Thanks so much for reading! I know it's short, but it's just a taste of what could be. Let me know with a review what you thought of this! I can even be persuaded to continue it, if enough people want me to :)
