Chapter 1: Lust
"Reno," said Rude nudging him on the shoulder, "wake up, President Shinra will be in in a minute to give us our assignment."
" Rufus Rude, call him Rufus, stop being such a suck up," he said as he woke, "great dream," he said , "ooh here she comes now."
"Elena?" questioned Rude, "seriously I thought you said you were over that."
"Everyone's entitled to change their mind," said Reno, "caw look at her," he said pointing at a picture in a magazine he had hidden under the table.
"That's disgusting, you'd never catch me looking at stuff like that," said Rude.
"I found this in your room," Reno said looking at Tseng and Elena to try and get them to point and laugh at Rude with him.
"What is it now?" sighed Tseng.
"Yeah try and be serious Reno," said Elena.
"Elena …….," said Reno "boy would I like to get on that sweet ahhhhhgrggrhh"
Rude put his hand over Reno's mouth luckily before he could finish his sentence, " it's nothing", he said.
"Okay" said Elena looking quite disturbed, " Oh hello sir , how are you this morning?"
"Suck up," whispered Reno under his breath.
"Sorry Reno, you said something," said president Shinra .
"I, I said err, "said Reno looking at Rude for help.
"He said suck up," sighed Tseng.
"Right , … anyway enough of this childishness," said Rufus.
"Yeah Reno," Elena interrupted.
"I need you all to read through these, they contain all the information you'll need for our next mission."
"Ooh gimmie," shouted Reno.
"Well Reno it's nice to see you're taking a real interest in our work," said Rufus.
"Why thank you President Shinra," replied Reno.
"Oh my god," laughed Rude.
Rufus handed over the paperwork to the 4 Turks then left the room. Reno took his and appeared to start reading with great interest. Reno and Rude knew better as they were the only ones who could see the magazine that was underneath the paperwork.
Reno nudged Rude on the shoulder and pointed to a picture and they both started laughing. (Reno obviously more than Rude as he was actually trying to understand their next mission.)
"Can you two handle this one?" asked Elena.
"What, yeah sure," said Reno as he pointed to another picture and they both started laughing again.
"Rude are you feeling okay?" she asked again.
"Yeah I'm fine," replied Rude, " I don't know about her though," pointing at another picture him and Reno started laughing.
"Okay, it's just that me and Tseng got other work to do," she said stressing the words work and other.
"Oh you mean tidying the stationery cupboard," said Reno bursting into laughter and tears with Rude. Elena left the room straight away. Tseng had his head down but you could see he was bright red.
"Tseng," screamed Elena from the corridor. Tseng slowly stood up and left the room.
" Wanna go watch through the keyhole?" asked Reno.
"No we have a mission to do," said Rude as he left the room.
"I'll be down in about 10," said Reno as he thought to himself wait a minute this is Tseng , " 5 minutes." He headed toward the stationery cupboard.
As Rude reached the bottom of the stairs he said to himself as he realized, " damn he's gonna go watch."
