Chapter 6: Back For The Last Time
"Hey Seph, you listening?"
"Huh? Uh, yeah...I heard you." He answered quickly. Truthfully, he hadn't heard a word the man said. He was lost in his own thoughts that seemed to endlessly haunt him. Sora had left months ago, 6 to be exact. And Sephiroth couldn't help but worry if he'd ever return. He swore up and down he would, but maybe he's forgotten about poor Seph. Or worse...
"There you go again. Did you hear ANYTHING I just said?!" The blonde other complained. He was really trying to have a conversation with him for the last ten minutes. It was like trying to talk to a wall, a relatively attractive wall.
"What?! Yes, I heard you." Sephiroth replied back rather annoyed. Cloud wouldn't even allow him to space out when he wanted to.
"Then what did I just say?" Cloud folded his arms across his chest triumphantly. He knew he got him now. Sephiroth sat there silently on the steps next to Cloud trying to conjure up bits and pieces of the convo. "Well?"
The silver haired man laughed lightly. "What was the question again?" He knew how to get Cloud steamed and, well, he liked doing it. Cloud got up with a hmph and began walking away. There's no way he was going to waste his time talking to a person who doesn't even take him seriously.
"Hey, don't be that way." Sephiroth gently tugged him back by his cape thing. "I was only kidding." Cloud fumbled back clumsily into his friend's lap.
"Not so rough, people will wonder!" He blushed.
Sephiroth looked around the always empty courtyard. "Uh, what people? Besides...you like it rough." Cloud smiled up at him, not moving from his spot. He was happy he'd finally won over the Great Sephiroth. Took him long enough, even though he mostly used the fact that Seph was lonely from the brat's absence.
'Alls fair in love and war.' He thought smugly as a breeze swept past them, blowing silver strands in the air. Silence crept into the atmosphere, and Sephiroth was back into his depressing thoughts of Sora. Cloud could tell and not only from the sadden look in his eyes. "You're thinking about him, aren't you?" he decided to confront him.
"Who?"
"Sora. Why do you do this to yourself? You know-"
"Yes I know he's not coming back!" Sephiroth snapped. He was tired of hearing that, thinking that. "Must you always remind me?" He stood up, dropping Cloud to the ground.
The smaller one got up dusting himself off. "Well excuse the hell outta me! I didn't notice I was reminding you!" The taller man sighed briefly. Here comes the fussing. "I wasn't trying to be insensitive. I just don't want you all depressed..." his little speech was cut short by a tight hug.
"Sorry about snapping like that. I'm just on the edge today." Seph nuzzled his hair, making Cloud weak in the knees. "Forgive me?"
"Uh-huh." he squeaked.
"Yo, big guy!" The petite goat man called from the doors. Sephiroth turned from Cloud. "Hey Seph! You got a challenger!"
"Alright..alright..." he faced Cloud again. "Another uneventful fight, I'll be back in five minutes...." He smiled. "Or less, depends on how I feel." Cloud nodded. He knew he'd probably play around with the poor guy then crush him when he least expected it.
"Have fun." He waved him away and sat back down on the steps. 'This is perfect!' his thoughts flowed in while looking at the clear blue sky. 'Hopefully the little brat died from his battle with whatever..' A malevolent smile crawled across his face while leaning back. He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, hoping that Sephiroth finishes whoever he's fighting off quickly. He could use some alone time with him.
After a few minutes the sound of gates being opened echoed through the courtyard, accompanied by heavy footsteps. "Could you walk a little lighter? I'm trying to rest here." he called out to the person without caring who it was. The footsteps became lighter and a few seconds later he could feel the presence of someone looking down on him.
"Snoozing out here are we?" a familiar voice laughed at him. A little TOO familiar for Cloud's liking. Opening an eye he froze in terror at the person standing above him. "Nice to see you too, Cloud. Where's Seph?"
He shot up. "What are you doing here?! You're suppose to be dead!" Sora laughed.
"I was? Wow, I'm lucky then." his voice somewhat lower than it was last time he was there. He'd grown a tad bit taller, muscular, even his hair was longer. Cloud was furious! He KNEW Sephiroth would go berserk seeing him. And Cloud would go forgotten about, again.
"Uh, Seph left." he lied. "You should...go find him! Now! Hurry go find him!" He pushed Sora towards the exit.
"Hey-! Cut it out!" He stopped him. "I know he's here."
"Nun-uh!" Cloud proclaimed. Sora gave the yeah-right-I-don't-believe-you glare to the silly blonde. "Fine! So he is! But I was just trying to protect you..."
"Protect me from what?"
"He's moved on! I mean you leave him all alone for a half year and you expect him to still be single?" Sora pouted. "Sorry kiddo that's not how it works." he gave Sora a sympathetic pat on the shoulder.
"Who's he with now? I mean..." Sora trailed off sadly. "Is he happy?"
"Damn straight he's happy. 'Cus he's with me." Cloud smiled proudly.
"Seriously, who's he with?" Sora began again.
"I was serious. He's mine now, so scram." A loud noise broke the tension as they spun around in time to see Sephiroth scrambling out the lobby and collapsing to the ground.
"Sephiroth!" they called in unison while racing to his side.
"Seph! What happened?! Seph!" Cloud frantically shook the unconscious body. A quiet smile appeared across his face as he opened an eye.
"Got ya." he whispered. Cloud sat there red with rage. It was rare to see him pull a prank but that one wasn't funny. Sora didn't think so either.
"Did you actually think-" The older one cut himself off as he noticed something wasn't quite right with that picture. There were two highly pissed off faces instead of one. His eyes widen with shock when he realized who it was. It was his beloved.. "Sora?!" He sat straight up in confusion and awe.
"You shouldn't scare us-..I mean Cloud like that." Sora got to his feet, holding back the urge to embrace him.
"When did you get here?... Are you ok? Where did you go? Did you forget about me?" The questions seemed to spill out of Sephiroth as anxiety clung to his every word.
"Slow down there, Seph. You'll blow a fuse." Sora grinned his trademark grin. He was anxious too, but he knew better than to just fall into the older man's arms. He's moved on. Sora knew little about relationships, but he followed his gut feeling.
Sephiroth stood up with Cloud at his side. It pained Sora to see them so close together. "You've grown a lot since I last saw you." Sephiroth placed a hand on Sora's shoulder. Cloud rolled his eyes.
"Not really." Sora answered distantly. He wanted to tell Sephiroth that he hadn't changed a bit. That he still had the same beautiful face as always. His heart ached with remorse. He had to know if it Cloud was right. Had Sephiroth really moved on with out him?
"Is it true?" his lips asked involuntarily. Cloud shifted closer to Sephiroth, not liking where this conversation was going.
"Is...what true?" Sephiroth asked him, taking a step closer to him.
"Uh, nothing! Nothing at all. Well I'm beat. I'll be at the hotel...just dropped by to say hi. So, hi!" He laughed it off and ran in the opposite direction, feeling like a complete idiot.
"Guess he's over you...eh, Seph?" Cloud asked, hoping to get him to believe it.
"Looks like it. Whatever." he shrugged, holding up his usual non-emotional act. Deep down, he knew something wasn't right.
(later on)
Sora laid in his bed for hours. He had taken a hot shower which usual knocks him right into snooze land but things were different. The room had slowly changed from light to dark as night crept in. Even that wasn't enough to settle his thoughts. 'Am I depressed?' He turned over for the hundredth time. 'Is Sephiroth really done with me?' He gripped his pillow and closed his eyes. Only to see the face of the man he loved so much....Thump! His eyes shot back open. Something made a noise in his room and he was the only one there.
"Who's there?" He called out into the darkness. His eyes finally adjusted to the dark, allowing himself to see the soft glow of silver hair in the dim moonlight. "Sephiroth?"
"You should really put your shoes to the side. I nearly broke my neck." The dark figure stepped closer, his eyes glowing radiantly.
"I call it a homemade burglar alarm. What are you doing here?" Sora pulled the sheets higher to his face. He didn't want Sephiroth to notice how much he was blushing, even though it was pretty dark.
"You seemed...so remote earlier today. I wanted to know if everything was alright." Sephiroth sat at the edge of his bed. "How was your journey?" his voice flowed calmly. It resurrected old feelings within Sora, making him become bashful.
"It-it was cool. Yeah, saving the universe and all..." He mumbled on absent mindedly. "And...what have you been doing?" 'Other than finding new boyfriends...' Sora added on in his thoughts. 'Wait, we weren't ACTUALLY together... or were we?...' He hit the back of his head against the headboard in frustration. Sephiroth sat quiet, observing Sora's self-abuse.
"You ok?...Is this a bad time?"
Sora rubbed his head. "I'm fine!" he pouted, wringing a smile from his company. "But don't you have a boy-toy to get back to?" Sephiroth sat with a puzzled face, well, Sora imagined a puzzled face on him because he couldn't really see his features in the dark.
"You mean...Cloud?" He laughed softly. The brunette frowned. What was so funny?
"Yes, Cloud. I never imagined you two...together without someone getting...decapitated." Seph scooted closer to him, a relieved smile shining brightly in the moonlight.
"Is that what's this is all about?" He eyed him deeply. Sora sunk deeper into the covers.
"Well, yeah." he peeped from under them.
'So...he still wants me? Thank God!' He pulled the covers from over Sora. "Cloud could never be what you are to me." Sora eyed him strangely, confused and slightly allayed.
"Then why have you left me for him?" He replaced the covers over his self; just to have them removed once more.
"I never left you! I mean...Cloud was my comfort. I needed something to fill the void." Sephiroth answered, stroking the key bearer's face gently. Sora smiled and held his gloved hand to his face. It felt cool to his cheek, but it wasn't unwanted.
They sat there like that for a moment, just enjoying each other presence. The room wasn't as dark anymore to Sora; maybe it was because he had his Sephiroth with him. Or maybe because he was fully adjusted to the low light shining through his balcony doors. Sephiroth dazed out the windows in some faraway thought. He looked lost to Sora, uncertain or in some mental conflict. Sora sat up, bringing his knees to his chest, resting his head against the older man's shoulder.
"Seph?" He whispered.
"Hmm?" Sephiroth replied, still gazing out the window.
"What are you thinking about?" Sora twirled a strand of his silver hair around his pinky.
A lot of things." He turned to him. "Like if I were to kiss you, would you still turn red?" Sora laughed briefly. He remembered their first kiss and how nervous he was.
"Only one way to find out, huh?" Sora leaned upward and placed his lips against Sephiroth's. It felt like an eternity since he felt lips touching his own. The kiss grew passionate as his silver haired lover responded, yet breaking it as quickly as it began.
"Don't worry, Seph. I'm ready." Sora reassured him. Sephiroth smiled, watching him lay back and gestured him to follow.
"Are you sure?" He removed a glove and trailed his hand down Sora's bare chest and to the rim of his shorts. He had a feeling that Sora was ready for a physical relationship, but nothing too advanced. It's better to break him in slowly. The smaller other nodded carefully, fighting off a tremble. He yearned for this moment. Only in his dreams was he able to have Sephiroth in an intimate way. It's funny how something he so feared, can come back so desired.
He watched as Sephiroth removed his own shirt and return to his lips. Sora closed his bright blue eyes, following the flow of the kiss. He felt the ex- general smile into the kiss as he ran his still gloved hand up Sora's thigh and under the shorts. The brunette jumped slightly at the gentle touches he was receiving below his waist. Sephiroth, loving the sighs and whimpers Sora was making, decided to trail kisses down his neck. He wanted to hear every sound that escaped his bright eyed lover.
Growing unbearably hard himself, he striped off Sora's shorts completely. Sora smiled, as his arousal brushed against Seph's abdomen. Sending a request for a climax. Providing another deep kiss, Sephiroth rapidly delivered a mind blowing hand-job with his gloved hand, wanting to see Sora cum. And he did, Sora went right over the edge and through the rainbow, ejecting his seed over Sephiroth's glove and abs. Sora immediately blushed and apologized for the mess.
"How do you manage to stay so unscarred?" Sora admired while trying to brush some of the white stuff off him.
"It's just the way I heal. Nothing special really." He replied undoing his own pants a bit. Grinning devilishly, Sora took the chance to slip a hand down it Seph's pants, gripping on to his lover's hardened member. The elder moaned out in pleasurable shock, feeling dominant, Sora wrestled his way on top of Sephiroth, and little by little imitated the loving gestures he endured.
"Sora.." he called breathlessly. Each hand movement given onto him sent thrills through his body. Who knew Sora would be so skilled? Sephiroth desperately gripped the tangled sheets around them, tensed, and climaxed with a sigh. Sora mentally high-fived himself.
"Did I do a good job?" Sora purred and laid on Seph's chest sleepily.
He ran a hand through his hair with a grin. "Definitely." Sora smiled at his accomplishment, finding himself playing with silver tresses. Sephiroth pulled the covers over them and tenderly rubbed the smaller one's back. Figuring he was tired and wanted to rest. After a minute or two, Sora's eyes became heavy. All their fun had indeed tired him out.
"Good night, Seph." he murmured and fell asleep.
Sephiroth folded his arms behind his head and heaved a heavy sigh, back in his hidden thoughts. Clearly he was through with Cloud. But what to do about him and Sora now? 'This is more than a little obsession now...' He glanced down at the sleeping Sora on his chest and smiled.
"I love you." He whispered to the brunette. "...And if you love me too, don't wake up." Sora exhaled deeply in his sleep, still clutching the silver strands in his hand. Not showing any signs of waking and objecting to the statement. Content, Sephiroth drifted off to sleep too.
