Disclaimer: I own nothing except for the idea. I actually like the Reno/Elena pairing. I'm still debating on whether or not it needs a chapter 3.

Reviews please.

"Think we should get going," Elena asked staring blankly down into her half full glass.

"It's not closing time yet," he said pointing to both his two drinks and at her half empty one. He would just have to finish for her two, not a problem for Reno.

"Well when we do leave, can you walk me home. I don't think I'm in any shape to deal with the shady characters around here," Elena began to slur. Apparently had a delay effect on the blond Turk, she was getting drunker and she had stopped drinking.

"Now what if I had someone else I was planning on taking home," Reno kidding winking at her. Elena shook her head as if she did not believe that he had someone else to take home tonight. She had completely missed his little innuendo. "Alright toots, I'll take you home," he grinned. This time she did not miss it.

"Reno!"

"What you're not married! And even if you were I'd still hit on you, a girl with your looks is good for the ego," he admitted. After he said it, he instantly regretted it. Not because what he said was false, but because it was true. If he and Elena had never been partners then he was confident he would have made sure that she found her way to his bed before she had a chance to even see who Rufus Shinra was. He sipped his drink and eyed her form. Elena had a gorgeous round face like a blond china doll. Her pale skin and blue eyes made her look somewhat like an ice queen, but he had seen that she could melt into an inviting blush with a little coaxing. "Dammit Reno, knock it off"he scolded himself as his eyes dipped past her slender neck to admire the little bit of chest she was flashing. Elena had unbuttoned the first few buttons on her top about an hour and a half ago to alleviate some of the heat. "Oh who the hell am I kidding, she's beautiful."

"No I'm not married, but... but.. but," she began to stutter. She wanted to say that she was dating Rufus but she was not and if things kept going the way that they were she was going to have to break up with her not-boyfriend. "Can we just go?"

"What bored with this place Laney? Maybe they should change the name to Rufus'" Reno joked finishing his drink and a few gulps and taking Elena's with him. He rose and held a hand out to her. Elena sat there stubbornly refusing his hand. She was in no mood to be teased about Rufus.

"Are you done," she snapped. Putting her hand in his.

"Am I ever?" he asked. Elena, though intoxicated, had to admit that he had a point. Reno would make a joke on his way to hell even if it meant more time and a worse punishment. He pulled Elena up and she stumbled a little into his chest. "Laney, I'm shocked. You know one of my patent moves," he chuckled.

"Let'ss jusss go," she muttered, blushing and starting to move away from him. A few seconds Reno allowed himself to lag behind her, just to watch her walk. When those seconds were up he quickly caught up with her ambling strides.

"Home or shall we see where the night takes us," he asked jogging in front of her a little bit. He turned around and held his hands up to the sky, indicating that the sky was their limit for the night.

"You go where yoo waant tooo, Imma going hommmee," she slurred pointing in the direction that she needed to go. It was not the direction of her home, but the direction that would lead her to Rufus' secret apartment. If he was not there then she would go home, but she had to break it off with him. She could not spend another unsatisfied night in his arms, pretending to be perfectly happy with their little arrangement. Either he was going to give her what she wanted emotionally, a relationship, or he was going to give her what she need physically, excitement.

Reno was following Elena only providing a touch here or there to stop her from falling over. He knew that she was not heading to her place, but he did not stop her. He was curious to see where she was headed and who she planned on seeing. After about an hour of a slow and steady march Elena had begun to stumble more often. To remedy this situation Reno placed an arm around her waist and let his blond co-worker lean on his for support. It was comfortable to have the petite blond clinging to his waits for support. The soft curves of her body were driving him mad, a shame that he was going to have to go home alone after all this. Damn Elena for driving him mad and then leaving him high and dry.

"Where are we," he asked when the two had stopped in front of what appeared to the the back door of a decent looking apartment.

"Ruuufussses 'prtment," she blurted out knocking on the door. Reno went into panic mode. He was done for if Rufus answered the door and he was there holding Elena by the waist. Quickly he tried to think where the president's son was. "Rocket town? No. No. No. OH! He's in Junon, thank Shiva" Reno let out a breath that he had been holding.

"Laney, he isn't here remember," he tried to soothe his partner. She spun on her heels staring up into his green eyes, tears threatening to fall. The last thing he wanted to deal with was a blubbering Elena. She had come here expecting to find him for a reason. "Look, I'll get you inside but you have to tell me why you came here."

"I wannteedd to seee himm andd tellll hiimm thaatt I wasss donnne witthh hiimm unlessss hee datedd meee or ssstopedd beeeiiinnn soooo boooriing," she began to wail and slur her words at the same time. "I'lll juss waiitt fooor hiimm tooo comme bacck."

"Well you might as well wait inside." Reno wondered just what was in the seemingly small apartment. He had seen all of Rufus' other places, but this one was new to him. Elena was the perfect excuse to snoop around.

"Hoowww," she asked puzzled. Reno grinned and fished through the inner pockets of his suit jacket. After a few moments of searching he produced a lock picking kit and set about opening the door quickly. Seconds later the door clicked and Reno pushed his way inside grabbing Elena.

"Yoouu cann'tt doo this Reenoo," she gasped looking around. Any other day she was a guest in Rufus' apartment, but tonight she felt like an intruder. Never had she been here without him, the darkness seemed alien to her. She looked around for Reno but he had already disappeared into the darkness.

The red head's first plan of action was to find the liquor cabinet which was an easy find. Shinra officials had a penchant for keeping their booze as far away from the kitchen as possible. It was that way at his place, at Rude's place, Elena's, T'seng's, the president's, and of course Rufus' amongst others. In this case, that put it right next to Rufus' bedroom. Reno fixed himself a drink and resisted the urge to rifle through the bedroom. The last thing he wanted to find was something the Rufus and Elena used. Actually, he doubted that he would find anything "fun" considering that Elena was complaining about lack of excitement in that department. He pitied his blond comrade, no one should be stuck in a relationship like the one that she was in, loveless and lustless.

Breaking into her "boyfriends" apartment was probably the biggest thrill she had gotten in this place in months. That was none of his business nor should it have bothered him as much as it did. Part of the reason Reno had so many affairs was because he was on some personal mission to make sure every woman had at least one night of careless fun to remember. At least that was what he told himself and others; he was trying to save the world one woman at a time.

"Reeennooo! Whaaat arrree yoouu dooing?" Elena called from the living room couch. She had planted herself there in hopes that if Rufus did come back tonight he would not be too upset with her for breaking in. Reno had ignored her and was saunter to the kitchen. After a few minutes of digging through the fridge he finally was able to find something that was not starting to mold. It appeared to be two day old pizza, still in the box. He seized the box and returned to the livingroom with Elena.

"Hungry," he asked tossed two of the four remained slices on the table in front of her. Elena giggled but ate the pizza. "Is it okay for me to sit down, I don't want to sit on anything that you two have christened already?"

"Thenn siit wheerreee eveerrr youu waaant... 'cept the beedd," she pouted nibbling on her pizza. Reno was surprised.

"Only the bedroom," he asked sitting down beside Elena on the couch. No wonder she was so upset about this situation. "Poor, Laney," he lamented. He tossed his arm around her and pulled her in for a hug, still managing to chew on his pizza while hugging her.

Something in Elena felt a little odd, sitting on a couch in her lovers apartment, hugging another man. Even if that man was Reno, it just did not feel right. She felt a little nervous that he would come back at any time and catch her in the act. She was not doing anything wrong, but the fact of the matter was that she was drunk and cozied up to someone that was not Rufus in Rufus' apartment. Nothing good could come from this. Did she really care though? What could Rufus do? Break up with her? They were not dating. He could fire her and Reno, but that would break up the best team of Turks in the history of Shinra. It would also force his affair with Elena out in the open, how else would they know about a secret apartment of his. Suddenly Elena did not care what Rufus did or did not do. She was angry at him for not being what she wanted him to be.

"What's wrong," Reno asked. He had felt her body tense up.

"Noothingg," she cooed in return. Elena was in the mood do something spiteful and Reno was probably the only person who could help her out right now. "Weee'rree friiendsss riiightt Reenoo?"

"Yea, course we are," he responded not following her train of thought.

"Youu'rreee s'possed too heellp ouutt friiends inn neeeedd riight?" she asked. Reno nodded in response. "Welll I'mm inn neeed Reenoo," she purred his name. Reno stared at her baffled. He had never seen this Elena before. The slur was starting to disappear from her voice, only to be replaced with a hint of a soft pur. He recognized the tone, but never had her heard it from her lips.

"Laney, you can't be serious?" He laughed and tried to brush it off. "You're just drunk."

"Soo are youu, youu jusst hiide it betterr than me." She had started rubbing her cheek where it lay on his shoulder. Reno chewed on his bottom lip trying to find a way to escape this situation, he really did not want to be fired for playing with the president's son's girlfriend and breaking and entering. Then again he wondered if he really wanted to be out of this situation. Elena was good looking, he knew that much and she was a friend. She had saved his life on multiple occasion, both on the battle field and from stalkers. He could take one for the team.

"You really fought yourself on that one," he thought to himself. He pulled away from Elena, his last attempt to run away from this stick predicament. He stared at her from across the couch. She had pulled her legs up and was on all fours crawling towards him. "I'm already going to hell, might as well enjoy the ride," he thought before inching towards her. He tried to delude himself that the kiss that the two shared had been for Elena, but he knew that was a lie. A part of him needed this two. He could be done wondering what could have been if Elena had been on a different team or just some stranger in a bar. She would be one more woman saved.

Their lips met in a sloppy kiss and Reno quickly took charge of the situation. He pushed her back on the couch and it was his turn to crawl towards her. Elena had a moment to be terrified of the wild look in his green eyes before he was upon her, his lips and tongue teasing her. A quick nip on the earlobe and the neck drove Elena mad. She rolled from under Reno and started sprinting away from him.

"Let the hunt begin," he called and followed her. He caught her in multiple rooms of the house but finally ended with her pinned to Rufus' desk in the study. All the items on the desk had been swept to the floor and lay in a half broken pile with both of their clothes.

Elena truly had gotten what she wanted. She vaguely remember Reno carrying her to Rufus' bed before she fell asleep well sated.

See should I add a third chapter in which Rufus comes home to find his place a wreck and disheveled pair in his bed?

I don't know! Encouragement, advice, and reviews please.
