Sorry, no real chapter.. but that Cleon short story I told you all about. Sorry. Its all I had done, and I got a lot of Private Messages telling me to do the Cleon Story. Its a one-shot in the series.
Short Story Chapter 2: Leon
I sighed, perfectly content after the day's (night's?) work of being the club's bouncer. I had gotten home, eaten then relaxed as I watched a movie with my mate. Speaking of which, the stoic blonde was now curled beside me on my bed, snuggling close for warmth. I smiled and ran a hand through his luxurious, silky locks. He stirred, burrowing his face into my chest. With a sigh, he stopped and used my chest as a pillow. With a sigh of my own I looked over to the clock.
Two hours until work time, and I still had to find volunteers…. Damn. Looks like Cloud's cuddling time is going to be cut short. With a displeasured groan, I ran my hand through my mate's hair, he stirred again.
"Cloud? Cloud? Come on, we need to get up now." I half whispered, half spoke; trying to wake the once slumbering blonde.
"Hmm?" Twin oceans, fogged over by sleep, slowly were revealed and turned to look at me. I smiled. "Time already?" He mumbled out the last part.
"Yes. Come on, wakey wakey…" he sat up, and yawned loudly.
"I don wanna." I chuckled. He was so much like a child at times.
"I don wanna, either." I replied mimicking him. "But, its two hours till the club is suppose to be open, and we still need to get ready, get dressed, eat breakfast, and get there. Not to mention that I have to cal some volunteers and see if their help out."
He glared scornfully when I mimicked him, then he smiled. "Well… who says we have to take separate showers?" I closed my eyes in fake thought. I caught a glimpse of him frowning before I closed them. "Come on… if I'm not allowed to go back to sleep neither are you!" I kept my eyes closed and I heard him murmur a German curse. I fought to keep a smile off my face. He leaned down close to my face to see if I was really asleep. I knew because I felt his breath on my face.
With a sudden movement, I had him pinned beneath me. Now it was me who grinned devilishly before capturing his lips with my own. I sucked on his bottom lip slightly and he happily granted me access. He tasted sweet. Not like sugar, but more of a natural sweet, like fruit. Some exotic fruit from some far-away country that only existed in children's dreams. His hands slipped under my nightshirt, and once they were placed directly on my chest, he pushed me away. I stared at him slightly hurt.
"I believe we have a tight schedule, and a shower to do." The look went away. Cloud in a shower… nothing would make me pass that up. The way the water would bounce off his seemingly water-restraint hair until he put in the shampoo, then the spikes would sag in such away, it made him look adorable. The water making his eyes seem brighter and wider. And his body… oh yes, there was nothing that would make me pass up Cloud in a shower. I grinned and carried him over to the bathroom, bridal style.
One hot and steamy 'shower' later….
"That was fun…" Cloud said as he wrapped a towel around his midsection, stepping out of the shower. I joined him a few seconds later. We both got dressed in our uniforms. For cloud it was a black tee with dark colored pants. He wore sneakers. For me, it was a black outfit, along with my weapons concealed on me.
"I'll make breakfast and you can call some volunteers." I nodded, and Cloud went into the kitchen. I never had his cooking, so I was a little frightened at how it would turn out. Maybe it would turn out better than my burnt mush I usually create. I shrugged it off, and picked up a phone. I dialed the first number I could think of, which was a volunteer's named Mayella.
Mayella usually worked at blood drives but she was on a month's vacation. I would hate to cut it short, but she was one of the few I liked. She had long black hair, that was almost always in a ponytail. Her eyes were a unique silverfish blue. she was very nice, and polite. Most of all, she was good with electronics.
"Hello?"
"Hey Mayella. This is Leon, the bouncer for Devil's Dance. Demyx and the gang decided to go to London, and left me and my…" I paused, trying how to call Cloud. None of the volunteers knew I was in love with a vampire. In fact, many volunteers hated me for being a hunter. Oh well, she would find out tonight anyways. "My mate in char-" I never finished before a squeal could be heard.
"Oh. My. Gosh! You're like a hunter and you have a mate! That's a vampire word! Does that mean your mate is a vampire!?! Oh. My. Gosh!" I ignored her and continued on like she hadn't interrupted me.
"-charge. I was wondering if you would like to help set up lights and electronics and such?"
"Sure, do you need some one for music and such?"
"Yeah…"
"Cool, I got just the person. Her name is Rikku. Her cousin is a vampire, so shes like totally cool with them and stuff. Alright?"
"Sure, thanks!"
"No problem. Now tell me about your mate." She squealed the last bit out, I winced.
"You'll meet him later." Were my last words before hanging up on another squeal.
"Leon? Done?" I smiled at my lover.
"Yes…"
"Good. Breakfast is served." I raised an eyebrow.
"That was quick…"
"My brother isn't that patient, so I kind of learned to get food done quick, but still have it taste great." Brother… he never mentioned a brother before…
"Brother?" He smiled at me, it had a hint of sadness.
"Yeah. Little brother. His name is Roxas. If you don't get his food quickly, he'll cuss you out in every language he knows. Which includes German, French, Irish, Swedish, Italian, Spanish, and Russian." I whistled. That was a lot of languages.
"Yeah… so come and get your food!" I came and got my food, which true to Cloud's words… tasted great. I made a silent vow that he would cook from now on. Breakfast was finshed, and we got ready to head towards the club. Whenwe got there, there was already a waiting line. I looked at Cloud's awed face.
"Think you can handle it?" he was shaken out of his thoughts and smirked at me.
"Try me."
I grinned, and let Mayella, a blonde girl and Cloud into the club. They did their thing, and then I was told I could let people in. So started an average day at the Devil's Dance.
Yay! Maybe by Friday the real chapter will come back and we'll all find out how Demyx is doing... Nah.. I'm sure we will... no maybe about it. After all the last day of school before Spring Break is Thursday. The only hinderance I can foresee is that i get grounded on Wednesday because of Report Cards. But I'm sure I have decent Grades, thus I won't be grounded. Honors English is a B. History is a ?. Science is a a definite A (like a 98.5) and Gym is like an A or high B. All I have to worry about is History, and chances are its a B, so I'm safe and if it was lower than a B, I doubt it would cause me to get grounded.
