Part One

Reno

"Vincent! Get out of there!" Reno shouted into his intercom as he maneuvered the helicopter in a vicious storm.

"Okay." Vincent called back, shooting at a mob of soldiers, "Pull me up!"

Reno swooped down by Vincent, who was still shooting. He grabbed the railing of the helicopter and Reno pulled out of the area. Vincent was still shooting at the soldiers. The storm is great in the night.

Vincent came into the helicopter, soaking wet. He sat beside Reno.

"Vincent," Reno said in a laid-back tone, "You could have gotten yourself killed…"

Vincent smirked, "All in a day's work." He looked at Reno with his piercing red eyes. They flew in the darkness until they came upon a huge building with search lights all around it. They landed on one of the platforms that are open. Vincent and Reno got off of the helicopter and onto the platform. They both walked in the silence of the slow wind that brushed rain drops on their faces. A huge metal, dome shaped door opened on the building that opened up like a garage door. A figure appeared in the light of the interior building.

"Cloud." Vincent's eyes narrowed.

Cloud is in uniform, which consisted of dark blue slacks and shirt and possesses a huge sword tied behind his back. He stood with his arms crossed, looking superior, "Vincent, Reno…" He called with a blank expression.

"Cloud…What're you doin' here?" Reno asked, reluctantly.

"I've come to give you guys your new assignments." Cloud handed them both thick stacks of papers as they reluctantly approached Cloud. They all walked inside the technical and busy building of the Jenova research incorporation. Vincent didn't bother looking at it. Reno flipped through the pages rapidly, "But-but we just got through the last assignment! Why another so quickly?"

Cloud looked at him with his bright blue eyes, "Both of you are some of the best in our incorporation…" He stated, "We still have a lot of trainees and most of our experienced Jenova soldiers are professors…"

"Damn…" Reno looked down.

They all kept walking through the building; people rushing passed them as they attended to research, mostly for diseases like Geo Stigma. They all came to a door and Cloud entered a code through a touch screen beside the door. The door then suddenly open and they proceeded through a fairly quiet hallway with doors on either side of it. Cloud stopped and turned around to face Vincent and Reno. Reno looked off with his arms crossed, the rolled up stack of papers in his hands. Vincent looked menacing and mysterious as always.

"Vincent." Cloud looked his way, "You start next week."
Vincent shrugged.

"Reno…"

Reno looked at Cloud with a sarcastic smile.

"You start tomorrow."

"What?!" Reno's mouth dropped, as he dropped his stack of papers, "Cloud! This isn't fair!"

Vincent chuckled at this.

"What's so funny Vincent?!" Reno shot at him.

Vincent closed his eyes, "You're such a child sometimes…"

"Why you—

"Both of you…You are dismissed." Cloud looked aggravated.

Reno sighed and grabbed his stack of papers from the ground, they both walked off. Vincent and Reno separated, Reno went down an elevator. He observed the night sky and the distant city. He came out of the building with only the stack of papers crumpled in his hands. He went into his black car and drove off into the night. He went back home to his apartment in the city. He opened the door to find that his girlfriend, Yuffie is sitting on the tan leather couch, arms crossed. She is clearly not happy.

"Yuffie…You're up…" Reno looked surprised.

"I texted you earlier today about tonight's dinner date…You never answered." She looked at him with anger.

"Dinner-oh…" Reno's face turned red, "Look I'm sorry…I'll make it up to you."

Yuffie stood up, "Reno, do you really…love me?" She walked up to him. She touched his face with passion in her eyes, "It seems like you don't love me."

"Of course—

He is cut off when Yuffie kissed him. The kiss ceased and she looked back at him with tears in her eyes.

"You-you don't love me…" She closed her eyes and turned to run away.

"Wait!" Reno stopped Yuffie mid way through. She turned toward him, hopeful.

"I-I…" Reno sighed in defeat. Did he really love her? He didn't possess the feelings he should for her. They've only been together because she loved him. And he only wanted to make her happy. He couldn't say those three special words he longed for. Those words weren't for her.

"I will pack my stuff tomorrow and leave." Yuffie ran into their bedroom and slammed the door.

He sat down on the leather couch and set the stack down on the glass coffee table in front of him. All is silent except the muffled outside noises of the city. He looked at the assignment in front of him, he flipped through it and saw his objective, and it is a man named Riku. He is part of another organization that is problematic toward the incorporation.

It is nothing new, the organization are deep rivals to the Jenova incorporation. They were also their oldest rivals. He wondered why Cloud presented him with such a hard task. Reno hopes that he has someone to help him. He got up and went into their bedroom. He saw a small lump under the covers and knew that Yuffie is sound asleep. He thought about sleeping beside her but hesitated. He grabbed a blanket and closed the door behind him. He walked back into the living room and plopped on the couch. He kicked off his shoes and lays down on the couch. He pulled the blankets up and clapped his hands twice and the lights went out for the night.

He woke up to his alarm clock watch that is sitting on the coffee table. It said five o clock AM. He got up, reluctantly and got ready. He went into their bedroom where Yuffie is still asleep. He went into the bathroom and did his usual routine; take a shower. He leaned against the shower wall while the water trickled down his body. He feels completely drained and wonders where his life is going. He turned off the shower and got out. He jumped, startled by Yuffie's presence. She is wearing her usual yellow pajamas that are way too big for her.

"Sorry…Didn't know you were in here…" she said, looking completely tired.

His face turned completely red and he quickly wrapped a towel around him. He watched her going to the sink and turning on the water. She grabbed her tooth brush and slowly put on tooth paste.

"Yuffie."

She didn't respond.

Yuffie…Please, listen to me…" Said Reno

"What is it Reno…" She said in a very tired and scratchy voice. Reno went to the sink and turned it off. Yuffie glared at him.

"Yuffie," he said in his most calming voice, "I-I'm sorry…"

Yuffie started to tear up and look upset. Reno looked distressed. She then hugged him and started to cry. He is startled at first but embraced her, his towel falling off.

It is six AM. Reno stood outside his apartment with his suitcase in his hand. Yuffie stood in the doorway.

"Well, I guess this is good-bye…" Said Reno.

"Yes…it is." Yuffie replied. She closed the door on him. He stood for a minute at the apartment door and rethought his decision. He sighed and walked down the short hallway and into an elevator. It went down to the first floor and then he drove to work. The day is gloomy as he came into the building. He went to a metal door and put his hand on the upper right screen, the screen scanned his hand. The screen turned blue and a voice issued, 'Approved.' A woman's electronic voice said.

The door opened. He walked into a round room full of computer and people talking on phones. The place is very busy. People are running through halls below and above him. He turned left and walked down the metal hallway and into his office that has been assign to him by the incorporation. He slammed the door to all of the noise. He put his suitcase down on the desk. The phone then rang. Reno sighed and let it ring four times before finally answering it, "Hello? Jenova Incorporation…"

"Reno…go to the forty-fifth floor section six…I've got something to show you…" Cloud answered.

"Okay Cloud…" Reno replied in a sour voice and then hung up the phone. He growled and picked up his suitcase. He walked out the door and took his time getting to the elevator. He then arrived into an empty gymnasium where Cloud and Squall stood in their incorporation uniforms. They both had their arms crossed. Reno walked up to them and then set his suitcase down beside him and then put his hands on his hips and glared at the both of them.

Cloud smiled, "do you have the assignment?"

"Right in here." Reno pointed at the suitcase.

"Good…" Squall said, "We will introduce you to your teammates."

"Teammates?" Reno raised an eyebrow, "I thought we only had partners for these types of assignments."

"Well, as I said last night, we're running short." Said Cloud.

"And these are our best students." Squall added.

"Come on in boys!" Cloud shouted and a door opened on the east side of the gymnasium.

A boy of about 17 walked out with his hands behind his blonde semi-spiky hair. He is fallowed by a guy that is reading a book and had shoulder length red hair. They both wore black suits.

"Hi, my name is Tidus." The blonde boy shook Reno's hand.

The other guy closed his book and smirked at Reno, "The name's Genesis."
Reno didn't look impressed, "Can I talk to the both of you…" He glared at Cloud and Squall, "In private."

They both shrugged and walked with Reno.

"Is this some kinda' joke?"
Squall looked baffled, "No, this isn't a joke."

Cloud nodded in agreement.

Reno looked at the both of them with a half smile, "Seriously?"

"Yes…They're our best students." Said Cloud.

Reno laughed, "Come on!" he looked toward them.

Tidus did a few back flips and Genesis is reciting the book in his hand. Reno looked back at Cloud and Squall who had their arms crossed.

"One has an annoying voice and the other doesn't even care!"

"Hey! I heard that!" Tidus shouted.

Genesis shrugged.

"Get over it Reno." Squall crossed his arms.

"What!?" Reno looked distressed.

"Look, it's just for this assignment. I think you can handle it." Said Cloud.

Reno huffed, "Fine."

"Great." Cloud said in a laid-back voice, "Your helicopter is waiting outside. Your location is on the assignment papers."

Reno rolled his eyes and picked up his suitcase.

"Hey," Cloud put his hands on Reno's shoulders, "Good luck." Cloud has a grave expression which confuses Reno for a time, but he quickly shrugged it off. Reno, Tidus, and Genesis went onto the helicopter. It is dark in the late morning and it started to rain. Reno and Tidus sat in front while Genesis sat in the back.

"So, what's the plan?" Asked Tidus.

The tone of his voice annoyed Reno every time Tidus spoke.

"Um…well Tidus, we're going to Organization XIII."

"What?! Oh boy! I've heard of them, they're the most powerful rivals we have!" Tidus yelled.

Reno shuttered as he flew the helicopter through the rain.

"Yeah, just make sure you don't kill yourself." Said Reno.

"Why would I do that?" Tidus laughed.

"I don't know but your voice is about to kill me…" Remo murmured.

"Uh, what was that?" Asked Tidus.

"Um, nothing." Reno smiled, sarcastically, "It was nothing."

"Who is our objective?" Asked Genesis, in a monotone.

"Some guy named Riku." Answered Reno.

"Hmm…" Genesis closed his eyes and his face looked at ease, "So…we finally kill the strongest terrorist."

Tidus gasped.

"What?" Reno asked, "He's the strongest?"

Genesis laughed, "Well, Reno, if you did your homework then you would be better prepared when you fight your opponent."

Reno held the controls tighter. He didn't like this guy one bit and knew that he would be a nuisance on this assignment. They flew through the rain with Tidus talking the whole way, his girly, annoying voice ringing in Reno's head.

Finally, they came upon a huge Japanese style mansion.

"We should land a ways from the organization." Said Genesis.

"Yeah, I have a bad feeling about this…" Said Tidus.

"I'll land in that small forest…" Said Reno.

He maneuvered the helicopter in a small opening in the forest, and landed. Reno and Genesis got out. Reno looked back and saw that Tidus is still in the helicopter. He poked his head back inside the helicopter door, "Hey, you…"

Tidus looked back in fright.

"Come on…" Said Reno.

Tidus slowly got out and walked with Genesis and Reno through the forest until they reach the opening where the gate is to the mansion. Just then, shadows appeared on the ground and rose up. Genesis and Tidus took their weapons out; Genesis with a samurai sword and Tidus with a water sword.

"What?! What are these things?!" Yelled Reno.

Genesis took out two of the shadows and then looked at Reno with a smirk, "Heartless." He began to laugh and take out two more of the shadows.

Reno is getting really tired of this Genesis. Tidus took out four of them. They then swirled together and a figure appeared from them. It looks like a girl, she has silver hair and a…tail?

"State your name!" Genesis held his weapon steady.

"Tch." Reno scoffed, Overachiever…

"Trespassers shall die!" She raised her hand into the air.

"Excuse me miss…but I don't hit girls…" Said Tidus, truthfully.

"Yeah, you just have to get out of the way." Reno took a step forward.

"What?! Miss?!" The girl cringed, "My name is Kuja and I'm no miss!"

"What? So…you're a…guy?" Reno asked, with his mouth wide open.

Kuja nodded with his arms crossed.

Genesis, Reno, and Tidus all looked at Kuja with his long silver hair, his feminine physic, and his girly face with their mouths wide open. They all then laughed, uncontrollably and fall to the ground in laughter.

Kuja looked angry, "What's so funny?!"

"Your face! Your body! And your gay clothes!" Tidus screamed in laughter.

"You will pay for your insults!" Kuja shouted, "Heartless!"

Shadows came up from the ground.

"This shall keep you busy…" He disappeared.

"Damn it!" Reno took out his metal club and went for the heartless. Tidus and Genesis fallowed close behind. Soon, all of the heartless have been defeated. They tore through the gate and ran into the mansion. They burst inside, and came into darkness. They could make out the walls and floors to be wooden. They walked through the dark hallways in silence. Tidus looked through all of the doors, one door in particular, caught his eye, "Hey, come look at this!" He shouted.

Reno and Genesis came over to Tidus and they all went into the room.

"Wow…" Tidus feasted his eyes on a completely white room.

"What is this place?" Reno looked around the huge empty white room.

"Hey…It's us!" Tidus picked up a piece of paper with a drawing on it."

"What?" Genesis observed the drawing, "This is…very unusual."

"I wonder who made these…" Reno looked at more of the crude but similar drawings that hung on the white walls.

"I wonder who made these?" Reno looked at the crude but similar drawings that hung on the wall. Just then, a black smoke appeared in the middle of the room and a amn materialized from the smoke. Reno turned around, "Riku!"

Riku crossed his arms and smirked, "So, you're the trespassers…What a laugh. All of you look weak and defenseless."

"Why you!" Reno took out his metal club and went after him. A sword materialized in Riku's hand. He blocked Reno's attack. Tidus and Genesis joined into the fight. Riku is a truly formidable fighter despite three against one. Genesis flew back, hitting the wall. He is knocked out. Tidus is next, he crashed into the wall, out cold.

Now Reno and Riku fight. Reno is getting beat. Reno then swooped down and hit Riku's legs. Riku went down. Reno stood above, panting from the fight. Reno then took out a gun and put it to Riku's head, "Any last words?"

Riku smirked and instantly disappeared. Reno looked all around for Riku.

"Looking for me?"

Reno turned around and got hit by magic, sending him backwards crashing into the wall. Reno's vision became hazy as he tried to make his body move, though it is all in vain. Riku came up to Reno with a sword in hand, "Well Reno, it is your time to die."

How does he know my name?

And with that, Riku raised his sword up and smirked. At that moment of fate, fire erupted, blocking Riku from Reno. Riku looked up, "Oh Axel…" Riku walked out into the middle of the room, "Come out come out wherever you are…"

Out of Reno's hazy vision he saw a flash of bright red hair and he heard a crash. Then black.

He woke again to see Cloud, Squall, Tidus, Genesis, Auron, and Basch. Auron and Basch are the highest bosses of the place. All of them are wearing suits and have stern faces. ExceptTidus and Genesis who are wearing hospital gowns and bandages, they both looked scared.

"What happened?" He managed to say. He realized that he is in a hospital bed in the sick and research ward at Jenova incorporation.

"Considering the situation, you're lucky to be alive." Said Cloud.

The memory came flooding back, "I-I'm so sorry. We gotta' run in with more than we expected." Reno said, "This…this guy…He's very powerful. I-I almost got him…" Reno shook his head in concentration.

Auron smirked, "We shouldn't have entrusted this assignment to two students and one agent."

"And a bad one at that." Basch added.

Reno sighed and looked down.

"You should have done your research." Said Cloud, in an uncaring voice.

Reno glanced at Genesis who had a constipated look on his face, trying to hide his real emotions.

"Well, now we know what we're up against." Said Auron.

"What?" Reno looked up at Auron, "So we were used?! You left us for dead?!"

"Of course not…we had back up" Tidus intervened.

Everyone glared at him, Tidus looked down.

"We had backup for you." Repeated Cloud.

"So it was all a setup…and we were the decoys?" Asked Reno.

They all shrugged and nodded to each other.

"Pretty much…" Squall admitted.

"I should have been informed of all of this." Said Reno.

"You're right, in our dept we will tell you of the situation leading up from the break in." Basch began, "We were too late, you all were already saved by someone."

Cloud placed a classified file in front of Reno. He opened it.

"His name is Axel, he's an organization member." Said Squall.

Reno opened the file to the red hair that he saw before.

"Now do you have any idea why this would occur?" Asked Auron.

Reno shook his head, "I don't know him." He gave the file back.

"No, this is your new assignment…" Said Basch.

"What?" Reno's mouth dropped.

"Get this guy and give us information specifically on the organization and what they're plotting." Said Auron.

"You expect me to do this why?" asked Reno.

"He saved you…That accounts for something." Said Basch.

"Yeah! You can be-friend him!" Said Tidus.

"Tidus, do you ever shut up?!" Auron snapped.

Tidus is silent.

"You can be-friend him." Said Auron.

"You have three weeks of bed rest and then you will start the assignment." Said Cloud.

They all walked out of the infirmary. Genesis and Tidus stayed. Tidus has a smile on his face, "The whole place is talking about you."

Reno rubbed his head, "Great…how long was I out?"

"Three days…" Said Genesis as he walked out of the room.

"Get well." Tidus gave Reno a thumbs up and walked out.

"Three weeks of bed rest…" He rubbed his eyes, "I feel better already." He outstretched his arms and tried getting out of bed. Pain shot throughout his body, he felon the floor, "Ah shit!" He screamed.

A nurse came to his aid, "You shouldn't strain yourself so much." She has a kind and soft voice. She helped him to his bed.

"Thanks." He sighed.

"Hey, aren't you Reno?" She asked.

"Yeah." Reno raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, I've heard so much about you! You're the top assassin!" Said the nurse, "Oh, I'm Yuna." She smiled.

"Top assassin?" Reno said, "Oh…Nice to meet you."

A day passed by, and Reno was discharged from the infirmary, he went home. As he is driving through the city, he spotted the red head of hair about to cross the street. Reno sped up to the street and honked. The man turned and showed his face, it is Axel. Reno got out of the car, "Hey you!"

Axel looked at Reno with a look of fright; he then jumped onto a building and ran away. Reno took one step but he is too sore to go on. Cars behind him started honking.

"GET OFF THE ROAD!"

"It's a green light!"

"Okay, okay!" Reno got into his car and drove off. He came into the empty apartment, he isn't used to the new environment without Yuffie. He turned the lights and memories of Yuffie came flooding back into his head. The late night parties she hosted, the way she'd jump into his arms when he came home from a long assignment, the coffee she'd make on his days off and…affairs in the shower. They are all gone. A flash of red tickled his mind, he wonders who this Axel is and why he saved his life. Reno shook his head and sat on the couch. He opened his suitcase and takes out the classified file. For an organization member, the incorporation knows a lot about him. His address and phone number. Usually, most of the organization members are mysterious and all the incorporation could get is their names. But they have Axel's address. Reno closed the file; he was going to pay him a little visit. He went to bed, alone.

In the morning, Reno got up. It is eleven o'clock in the morning. Reno slowly got up his whole body sore. Nevertheless, he got ready and quickly zipped out of the apartment. He fallowed the address to Axel's house. For an organization member, Axel seemed rich. He lives in the higher priced, tropical area, where he lives in a townhouse on a hill. Reno parked by his house and hesitantly went up to the door and rang the door bell. Nobody answered. He rang and rang again, getting more angry and angrier. Then, finally a man with a black robe and a hood came to the door. He uncovered himself to be Axel. Reno suddenly shoved him against the wall, slamming the door behind him. Reno looked into Axel's bright green eyes, Axel seemed blank.

"Who are you and why did you save me?!" Reno demanded.

Axel slammed him against the other wall and walked away. Reno's knees buckled and he sat down on the ground. He covered his arms. His body is still sore and pain shot through his arms. Axel came back with a glass of water, "Here, drink this." He gave Reno the water. Axel is bulkier and more powerful then Reno is.

"Why are you doing this?" Reno glared at Axel.

Axel shook his head, "It's better then kicking you out on the street…if you rather me do that then that's fine."

"Why did you save me?" Asked Reno.

"When I saw you down there fighting Riku I started to feel sorry for you, so, I saved you…" Axel laughed.

Reno growled, "You wanna' go?!" He stood up, but then buckled over in pain.

"I guess Riku really beat you up good…what are you doing here anyway? Is there something you want from me?"

"yes…" Reno stood up, leaned forward and put his hand beside Axel's face on the wall, "What's your problem?" Reno looked dazed.

Axel threw his head back and laughed, "What's my problem?!"

Reno's eyes rolled back and he fell into Axel's arms.

Axel sighed and put Reno's arm around his own shoulders and carried him to one of the couches and laid him down and went out the door.

Reno woke again to find himself on a couch, he saw Axel sitting on the couch opposite and wearing a casual suit, with a drink in his hand. He also had a girl, cuddling up beside him.

"That was such a good time we had…we should do it again." The girl said, which has blonde hair and green eyes.

"Yes, we should Rikku." Axel replied.

"Well, I should go now." She kissed him, "Call me…" she walked out the door.

Reno looked at the window and saw that it is dark outside. Axel leaned forward to look at Reno.

"Who was that?" Asked Reno.

"Just a girl…no biggy." Axel sat back and closed his eyes, he put his feet on the wooden coffee table in front of him.

"Did she say anything about me?" Asked Reno.

"She was kinda' surprised at first but I told her that you were my retarded cousin." Said Axel.

"What?!" Reno shouted, his eyes wide open.

"Look…Are you ready to leave?" Asked Axel.

"Yes…" Reno sat up but then clutched his side in pain, "Ouch…"

"Here, let me see it…" Axel sighed as he came beside Reno, "Where does it hurt?"

"All through here…" Reno clutched his left side.

Axel then started unbuttoning Reno's shirt.

"Hey, what are you doin'?!" Reno stopped him.

"I have to see it." Said Axel.

Reno looked at him for a minute then sighed and let him proceed. Reno is extremely toned in muscle, but it is thin muscle. Axel saw a huge bruise on Reno's side. He touched it lightly and felt the whole bruise on his side.

"Okay, wait a sec…Don't move I'll be right back"

Reno blushed rapidly. He feels a tingling sensation where Axel touched him. He feels at ease.
why did he feel such things for this person, let alone a guy. Axel came back with first aid. Axel stopped and looked at Reno, "Are you blushing?"

"Uh…No!" Said Reno.

"Then why is your face red?" Axel said, "It's almost as red as your hair!" he started to laugh, "Oh, I am flattered…What is your name anyway?"

Reno blushed even deeper, "Shut up! I'm goin'!" he tried getting up but it is no use.

"Whoa, whoa, hold up." Axel said, "You're in no condition to be up…"

"What's wrong with me?" Asked Reno

"You have a huge bruise on your side." Said Axel.

"So that's why…" Reno nodded.

Axel bent down and took out a medicine roll.

"Reno…" Reno coughed.

"What?" Axel looked up at him.

"The name's Reno…" Said Reno.

Axel smirked, "Oh, and I'm Axel, but you probably already know that."

Reno looked down and blushed.

Axel took off Reno's shirt, leaving him bare and vulnerable. Reno blushed even more. Axel placed a layer of cotton on the wound and held it there; he then reached behind Reno and wrapped the medicine roll around his waist and some of his chest. Reno felt his heart beating faster, every time Axel touched him, and he feels the tingling sensation that then courses through his body. He felt Axel's hair gently brushing his face as Axel reached behind him. He felt strangely intoxicated by Axel's presence.

"All done." Axel stood up and crossed his arms.

Reno shook everything away, "Thank you…But why did you do this for me? You could have just kicked me out the door…but you didn't."

"It's always questions with you, can't you just be thankful?" Axel said in a laid back tone of voice.

"I-I am…" Reno admitted, he tried getting up.

"Whoa, I'd give it a few hours." Said Axel, a serious expression. He sat down beside Reno on the couch, "So tell me something, why are you here?"

Reno shook his head, "I guess I wanted to thank you for saving my life…"

Axel laughed, "Is that how you thank people? Man you are confusing…"

Reno huffed, "I don't know…I guess I just got carried away…But the thing I don't get is that you're an organization member and you saved a rival…and your still helping me…" Said Reno.

"Like I said, I felt sorry for you." Axel leaned back on the couch and put his hands behind his head.

"Awe come on! I'm not that helpless…If you saw the whole battle which you probably did, you woulda' saw me taking out Riku and almost killing him." Said Reno.

Axel laughed.

"What? What's so funny?" Reno asked.

"But you didn't kill him, and you almost got killed…But I can care less about Riku, I'm not like one of his drones like the rest of em' I do whatever I want." Said Axel.

"Then why are you in the organization?" Asked Reno.

Axel looked at Reno and came closer to him, " You have absolutely no idea what you're dealing with right now.." He looked angered and serious.

"What? Is it such a hard question?" Reno also looked angry.

Axel leaned forward and then kissed Reno, long and hard. Reno is absolutely dumbstruck. The odd feelings came flooding back. His heart beat faster as he felt up Axel's face. The kiss is very intense as Axel knocked Reno in the couch. Axel took Reno's hand in his.

Axel then slowly pulled away from the surprised Reno. Axel looked off in space, just realizing what he just did. Reno couldn't help but gaze into Axel's bright green eyes. Axel looked down and closed his beautiful green eyes. Reno looked very confused.

"Please…" Axel began to shake, "Get out…"

"But-But!" Reno stuttered.

"Just get out!" Axel tried to keep from bursting into a raging fit.

Reno got up, still sore, "For the record, you kissed me!" he held his side in pain.

Axel ushered Reno out the door. Reno has a look of confusion and a longing. Axel slammed the door in Reno's face. Reno stood for a minute, furious. He then stormed back to his car and to his lower town and back to his apartment, still pondering his experience with Axel. He is in his apartment, slamming the door behind him. At that instant he came to a realization. Reno's jaw dropped, "I…kissed…a…guy!" he fell to his knees and screamed. He then ran to the bathroom and brushed his teeth twenty-six times before going to bed, muttering to himself, "I'm not gay, I'm not gay…" until he drifted off to sleep.
