AN: For those of you waiting for an update on Remember, it should be up later today. Sorry for the delay, schoolwork has been unbelievably time consuming. This would have been up earlier, but for personal reasons I had to rewrite it and partially alter the plot. Also sorry its so short!
Pairing:Reno x Aerith
Summary: Reno searches for the flower girl they are meant to capture
Warnings: Swearing, Reno
Reno snarled, pacing through the alleyways like a panther. They hadn't found that stupid runaway flower girl. He took a right turn, then a left, losing himself in the maze of poverty and repressed memories. He thought back to the darkest moments of his childhood. Around here must have been where he…
A movement caught the edge of his vision and he spun to face it. Here, of all places, was that damn flower girl. He strode forwards, expecting to see terror in her eyes. That was what he had long ago grown accustomed to seeing in the eyes of his victims. Instead, he was met by an angry defiance which took his breath away.
His killer's instinct, the orders he had been given to destroy her, flew his mind. They had been rivals for so long, and he hadn't noticed how beautiful she was. He knew she was by nature a pacifist, and so would be unarmed. It wasn't fair for him to go against her armed.
He walked over, hands free of weapons, and had her pushed back against a wall before those innocent green eyes understood what was happening. He had meant to capture her, but he couldn't find the strength and cruelty to do so. He pushed against her harder, trying to decide what to do, when a delicate whimper escaped those rose pink lips.
That decided him, and he leant forwards, pushing his lips against hers in a passionate kiss. He'd expected a struggle, cries of protest, maybe even fragile tears. What he got was the kiss returned with equal passion, slender hands lacing around his neck and pulling his head to hers. He was the one who finally pulled away, panting desperately for breath.
She smiled up at him coyly.
"Can I go now?"
He nodded, unable to even think clearly from the force of the kiss. She smiled her all-knowing, eternal smile at him, and gave him one final tender parting kiss, before walking away, hips swaying, taking his heart with her.
