Howdy y'all! Okay before you read this chapter I ask you this, 'Please don't kill me' Now the reason I ask you this is because this chapter is getting off of the current event with Yuffie and the gang. You see something unimaginable happened today. I read a fic about two certain characters. And I never ever read a pairing with those two before, but I saw it and I was like 'Hey that sounds interesting' So I read it, then I did a search for more and read another, and then another and I kept on reading them. I like to say in my defense is because it was something new to me.
So then I was beginning to think, 'Maybe I should try writing one' But then I thought I have too many fanfics in progress already. then I thought, 'Hey! Why not just have a chapter on them since they are in this story anyway?' The idea to write something about them has been stuck in my head, eating away at my concentration for the next chapter, it lingers in my head like some sick parasite slowly draining all other ideas out of my head. Who are these two characters you ask? You'll find out soon enough. I'm just going to put it all in one chapter because I want to get on with the real story alright? Hopefully this will clear my mind.

Chapter 48- Nightmares Of The Past Conquered By The Tenderness Of The Present
The sky is clear, the sun shines high and brightly on this particular day. Inhabitants flood through the streets, moving from store to store or relaxing on the soft sands of the beach. All appears peaceful in this beautiful beach resort known as Coasta Del Solo. People go on about, enjoying the beautiful day despite what's happening in the outside world. In the small pub near the entrance of the town, the local drinkers gather to get out of the scorching hot sun and quench their thirst.
Inside the pub it's filled with cigarette smoke and the smell alcohol is strong in the atmosphere. Sitting on the stool next to the wall sits a male in his mid twenties. His icy blue eyes are bloodshot and his long fiery red hair is damp with sweat is being held back with a pair of sunglasses with the help of a rubber-band holding some hair in a small ponytail. Despite the hot temperature outside, the man wears a black suite. The black jacket he wears is opened all the way while the white dress-shirt underneath only has a few top buttons undone. Taking a small glass of scotch in his right hand, the red-head, known as Reno, downs the alcohol in one quick gulp. He holds up his right hand to signal the bartender to give him some more.
The blonde haired woman scowls at the nearly drunk Turk, her crystal blue eyes glowing with annoyance as she places her hands on her hips. "Reno, go back to the apartment. I'm not slipping you another free drink." Elena says irritated by her fellow Turk. She has every reason to be too. Unlike her lazy comrade, she managed to get a job as a bartender to help keep both of them of their feet. Unfortunately the job came with a minor setback, Reno. He comes in everyday and gets her to give him free drinks under her boss's nose, risking her job at the same time.
The two have been living in Coasta Del Solo for a few months after Midgar's downfall and their silent friend Rude was killed. They managed to buy a small apartment with the little money they had left. Elena quickly searched for a job to help their finances while Reno, being his lazy self, stays at the apartment or harasses the women population in the beach resort. Having women walk around in bikinis all day boosts up his womanizing by a bit. Occasionally the two would go back to Junon to see what has been happening on the East Continent. That's how they ended up running into the ninja AVALANCHE member that day, they were heading back to Coasta Del Solo.
Reno raises his bloodshot eyes to give Elena a half hearted glare. Alcohol isn't the only reason why the man's eyes are bloodshot. Elena knows that he has trouble sleeping at night, sometimes he goes on for days without any sleep. The memories from loosing his friend haunts him more then Elena guessed it would. She isn't that surprised though, when she first became a Turk as a replacement for Reno when he was injured by AVALANCHE, she noticed how close they were. The two would end up doing everything together, drinking, gambling, missions, chasing women, although Rude wasn't as bad as Reno is.
Elena sighs and decides to give him one more drink, pouring the glass up with more scotch she watches as Reno's eyes light up like a small child's would when given candy. Reno's lips spread into a lopsided grin as he grabs the glass. Elena can't help but pity the man, she's been woken up during the night on countless occasions due to Reno's shouts and screams as his nightmares haunt him. The nightmares are the reason he opted not to sleep as long as he can. Elena can clearly here his cries coming from the couch in the living room at night. The small apartment only has one bedroom and with a toss of a coin they decided who gets the bedroom. Elena lost the toss.
Reno smiles as he sees the coin face heads up from the floor, "Heads I win!" Reno says triumphantly.
Elena rolls her eyes as she crosses her arms in annoyance, "Oh joy the couch." She says sarcastically.
Reno shakes his head, "Wrong. You get the bed and I get the couch" He says surprising her. As She stands there with her mouth hung open, Reno walks over to the couch and plops himself down.
"What do you mean I get the bed? You won the toss" Elena says in confusion.
Reno waves his hand off, "Right I won the toss, therefore I get to choose to decide where I get to sleep."
"But why pick the couch!?" She presses on.
Reno crosses his arms underneath his head and closes his eyes, "I can't sleep on beds, too springy. Guess I'm too used to sleeping on a couch since I did so when I was growing up. Too poor to afford a bed. Heck, there was hardly anyone who owned a bed in the slums." He explains nonchalantly.
That was the first time Elena learned anything about Reno's past. Reno suddenly stands back up and walks over to Elena, a smirk played across his face, "Besides, unlike some people, I don't need beauty sleep because I'm always beautiful."
Elena crosses her arms a bit as she turns her head to the side, "Oh.. so you think I'm ugly." Of coarse she already knows the answer to her comment. They already had this argument numerous times with Reno insulting her by calling her flat-chest or some other crude name.
Reno raises his right hand and brushes the back of it against her cheek tenderly, "No.. I don't." Then he turns around and throws himself back on the couch, leaving Elena standing their uncomfortable with a heavy blush spreading across her face.
And that night was the beginning of Reno's nightmares. Elena had spent the entire night wide awake listening to Reno's cries. She never confronted him about it though. Knowing him, if she did confront him about it he would probably laugh in her face and insult her to try and cover up the truth. Elena sighs as she places her chin down on her palm as she rests her elbow on the counter while she stares at the half drunk Turk.
Reno just isn't himself anymore. The night it happened he seemed calm and collected. But now she knows he only acted strong because one of them needed to, and she definitely couldn't be. She lost it the moment she watched Rude drop to the ground in a bloody mess. It makes her wonder if Reno would be this saddened if it was her and not Rude that died. Elena snorts at the thought, she highly doubts it. Unlike her, the two had some sort of bound. They weren't just co-workers to one another like Elena is to them, they were friends, best-friends, brothers even, if Elena didn't know better she would even think they were occasional lovers. Of coarse she knows that is totally wrong considering they both were definitely NOT that type of men.
Elena sighs in disappointment. She wish she was able to have that sort of bound with them. She tried for so long during the Meteor incident to get their approval of her but she knew they just couldn't except her as a true Turk. Unlike them, she didn't have to go through the severe training as them. She only became a Turk as a temporary replacement for Reno when he was injured. The two never voiced their thoughts about her but she knew better. She may act like a ditz sometimes but she's not blind. She could tell that they didn't regard her as an equal.
"Hey honey, how about we get out of here and go to my place?" Reno asks a brunette that is just unfortunate enough to sit next to the man. The woman just chooses to ignore him for the time being as she orders a drink.
Elena rubs her temples fighting off the headache that's beginning to show itself. "Reno.. leave." She commands just wanting the man out of the bar before he starts trouble and causes her to loose her job.
Reno turned his gaze returns to Elena's. His eyes light up in mischief as his well-known smirk crosses his lips. "Perhaps I will, but only if you come back with me." His eyebrows raise up as his eyes travel up and down from her body.
That's another thing that's different with Reno. For the last month he's been making occasional passes on her when he's slightly drunk. At first she'd get embarrassed about it, but now it's just annoying. Elena rolls her eyes, "Not on your life." She states before getting the brunette's drink. When she turns back around, Reno is gone. She sighs in relief before giving the brunette her drink.
The brunette takes her drink while giving Elena an uncertain look, "Is he your boyfriend or something?" She asks hesitantly.
Elena's eye widen and her mouth opens in disbelief. A shiver runs down her spine at the thought of having any sort of relationship with Reno. The shiver has nothing to do with disgust, "Hell no." Elena states sounding totally digusted.
The brunette gives Elena and innocent little smile, "So he's available?" Elena groans.
{}

Elena slowly makes her way back to the apartment, dragging her feet across the gravel as she makes her way through the town. She gives a sad sigh, she's been doing that a lot lately. She can't help but feel depressed. She's been feeling depressed long before Rude's death. She guesses it was after the Meteor incident that she started becoming depressed.
She knows what her problem is, she's lonely. Turks are suppose to be loners, not having a care in the world. They are only suppose to worry about getting their jobs done, nothing else. This is one of Elena's flaws as a Turk. She just isn't the loner type, she just can't not want to be with someone. That's why she was so infatuated with Tseng.
Of coarse she shouldn't feel lonely, after all she's living with Reno. But the only time she actually sees him is when they go to Junon together, when he goes into the bar while she's walking, or if he's passed out on the couch. Reno is out day and night doing whatever it is he does, chase women probably, is Elena's guess.
Elena opens the door to the apartment she's sharing with Reno and walks in. She throws her jacket onto the coat rack and walks across the room. She passes Reno who is sprawled out across the couch completely knocked out, an empty bottle of whisky in his right hand. Elena rolls her eyes at the sight, 'Typical.' She heads off towards the kitchen to find something to eat. Luckily she finds some leftover pizza from the night before, placing a couple of slices into the microwave she begins to reheat them. Elena and Reno never cook, they usually order out, and when they don't Elena tries to make something edible. Elena has horrible cooking skills she'll be the first to admit that, so it was either order out or have her cook. She's never seen Reno even attempt to cook before and if he did she may not trust him enough to try and eat it.
Shuffling comes from the other room as Reno begins to get up off the couch. Elena turns towards the kitchen's entrance as a disheveled Reno walks in. He sits down in a chair at the small table and places his forehead down on the cold surface of the table, trying to cure his hangover. Elena stares at him for a moment before the microwave beeps. She turns around and takes her food out of the microwave, "Want me to heat you some pizza?" She offers since she's already standing up.
Reno doesn't lift his head off the table as he shakes his head slowly, "I don't this I'll be able to stomach it." He says. Elena shrugs as she sits down and begins to eat her reheated pizza. Reno stands up and walks over to the refrigerator. He opens up the refrigerator and searches inside, "Besides, eating too much of that shit will make me fat." He says, his tone hinting towards something.
Elena turns around to glare at his back as he pulls out a cartoon of eggs. Reno takes a glass out of the cupboard and begins to crack open eggs, filling the cup halfway up with raw eggs. Elena raises an eyebrow at this, "What are you doing?" She questions curiously.
Reno turns around and grins, "Saw it on T.V. the other night." He explains, "The best cure for hangovers!" He announces as he picks up the glass. Elena was about to ask Reno what he's talking about but the question is answered before she even asks it.
Reno lifts the glass to his lips and begins to down all five raw eggs in one attempt. "Eww.. Reno that's DISGUSTING!" Elena shrieks. Watching the raw egg white run down the sides of his mouth as he tilts the cup higher to get the egg yokes into his mouth is just plain disgusting to Elena.
Reno finishes his off his 'hangover cure' and places the cup down on the counter. He wipes his mouth with his sleeve as he grins, "Mmm... yummy."
Elena covers her mouth wondering how anyone can eat five raw eggs without getting sick, "I think I just lost my appetite." Elena informs him.
"We've got a bigger problem." Reno suddenly says as he places a hand on his stomach.
Elena rolls her eyes, "Which is..." Elena drags the sentence on waiting for Reno to finish it for her.
Reno gives a small frown, "Eggs are coming back up." And with that said he jumps across the kitchen to the sink as the eggs, and whatever else he's digested in the last twenty-four hours, spills out into the sink. Elena's cheeks puff up as she holds back the urge to vomit at the sight. She quickly stands up from her seat and walks out the kitchen quickly as the sound of Reno's hurling fills the apartment. Elena heads into her room, closes the door before throwing herself down on her bed and covering her head with her pillow to block out the sounds coming form the kitchen.
{}

Reno's cries awaken Elena from her slumber. Groggily she removes the pillow that's on top of her head. She must of fell asleep when she was blocking the sounds of Reno vomiting out of her head. Reno's cries echo across the apartment again making Elena realize what had awoken her in the first place. Elena rubs her tired eyes and looks to her clock, '1:57' Elena groans as she falls back into her bed. It's going to be a long night, Elena realizes. If Reno sleeps, she doesn't. You'd think after having to deal with it for awhile she'd be used to it and be able to sleep.
So there she is. Starring at the ceiling as she does every night when Reno awakens her with his cries of anguish. She just lays there listening to his occasional heart wrenching cry. The sounds always manage to make Elena want to start crying. After all, this is Reno, the cold- hearted, sarcastic, womanizing, bastard who doesn't seem to have a decent bone in his body. He's having nightmares of his friend's death. His cries make Elena reply Rude's death and it's still hard on her. She may not have that bond that Reno and Rude had but she still considered Rude her friend. Not to mention it tears Elena apart to hear Reno like this.
Elena turns her head towards her clock again to check the time again, '2:11' Her eyes narrow in determination. This has to end some time. Either Reno is going to do it or she will. Seeing how Reno doesn't seem capable to do it, it'll have to be her. But what can she do? She asks herself as she sits up in her bed. She slowly walks out of her room and towards the couch in the living room.
Reno is on the couch, his blanket twisted around his legs. His arms strike the air at invisible enemies in his sleep. Tears are running down his face despite how tight his eyes are closed. He yells and shouts in his sleep trying to ward off the nightmares. Elena stands at the edge of the couch starring at Reno struggles in his sleep. She bites her bottom lip debating on what to do. Hesitantly she leans towards him and shakes his shoulder trying to wake him up.
Quicker then she can see with the instincts that made him become a Turk, Reno reaches out in his sleep, grabs her wrist and pulls, hard. Elena shrieks in surprise as she pulled, she falls right on top of Reno, making him wake up with a resounding, 'oof.' Elena leans up to see Reno looking at her in confusion. Elena blushes and quickly jumps to her feet as Reno releases her wrist. Reno rubs the sleeve of his jacket across his eyes as he sits up. Swinging his legs off the couch so he can sit comfortably, "What are you doing up?" He asks, his voice cracking a little.
Okay Elena, you woke him up, now all you have to do is find that bit of courage to try and help him, then it's back to sleep you go. Elena stands there in the darkness trying to think of something to say while Reno just sits there and stares at her expectantly. Elena takes a deep breath to calm her nerves before speaking, "You were having a nightmare." She states as quietly as she can.
The mood changes Reno has is astonishing really. You can never predict what he'll do or how he'll react to something. He joking and laughing with you one second, the next he would be punching your lights out or shocking you with his electro rod if you say the wrong thing to him. Elena decided a long time ago that Reno has more mood swings then a women with PMS.
Reno's eyes darken a bit as he narrows them threateningly, "Mind your own business bitch." He sneers as he stands up.
Usually Elena is intimidated by him when he has that dangerous, royally pissed off look across his face. But not this time. She's had to put up with his nightmares for too long. She sick and tired of it. Elena narrows her own eyes as she glares right back at him as she crosses her arms, "NO! I've been awakened by your cries too many times Reno. And now you're going to talk about it." She shouts. She isn't sure if they'd be waking up their neighbors or not, and honestly, she couldn't care less.
Reno turns around and walks away, "Fuck off bitch." Reno yells.
Without even realize what she's doing, Elena quickly runs up behind Reno, grabs the back of his jacket, and pulls him back, making him trip over the back of the couch. Elena turns around and places her hands on her hips as she continues to glare at Reno through the darkness, "Listen here you stubborn jack-ass. I'm tired of you pushing me away whenever I try to help. I know you don't regard me as a real Turk but whether you like it or not, I am one. And Turks look out for Turks remember!? That's exactly what I want to do. I'm trying to HELP you, you asshole." Elena is breathing heavily by the time she finishes her ranting. She keeps her gaze locked on Reno to see what he'll do.
Reno stands there glaring at her, a scowl across his face. He walks across the couch and heads towards the kitchen. Elena growls angrily as her fists clench at her sides as he walks away. She hears the refrigerator open and then slam shut. She turns around to see Reno carrying the case of beer that was in the refrigerator. He makes his way back towards the couch, scowling the whole way there. He sits down on the couch as he takes out one of the beers before downing it.
Elena narrows her eyes figuring out that he's planning on drinking to the point of unconsciousness. She stomps over to stand and front of him, "What the hell are you doing!?" She demands to know as Reno opens up another beer.
Reno's head raises up to lock his gaze with hers. His glare never dies down as looks at her, "This is the only way I can talk alright!? So either deal with it or forget about it." Reno orders as he downs another beer.
Elena shuts her mouth as she finally understands. Reno can't open up, his pride won't allow him to do so, but with the help of a little alcohol, he'll be able to talk about it. Elena suddenly pitied him, alcohol is the only way he can open up, that's sad. "Well since you plan on getting wasted, hand me one." Elena says as she sits down on the couch. Reno obliges handing her a beer.
Elena sipped at hers while she watches Reno down a few more of his. After awhile, Reno stops chugging them as he leans his head on the back of the couch. "I was helpless again." Reno suddenly says. The comment confused Elena. Reno continues to stare up at the ceiling, Elena can see the change in his appearance almost immediately. His expression seems so blank as he stares up at the ceiling. Being drunk does this to Reno? Elena glances in the darkness to see how many he actually did drink. She counts three cans. Three cans of beer is all he drank. Reno is definitely not drunk. Perhaps it's just enough to get him loosened up enough to talk.
"What do you mean?" Elena asks quietly, cutting through the dark silence of the room. She folds her legs up onto the couch and turns a little so her back is against the arm of the couch.
Reno doesn't remove his gaze from the ceiling as he speaks, "I couldn't help Rude. I was helpless. I seem to be helpless when people need me the most. Five people are dead because I'm so weak." Reno replies, his voice sounding distant.
Elena tilts her head to the side in confusion, "Five?" She repeats questioningly. Rude is one she's sure of that. But who are the other four he's talking about?
"Rude is one of them. Both my parent are dead because I couldn't do anything to help them. I watched them get killed right in front of my eyes when I was five. We lived in the slums. We were jumped by a few muggers. They demanded my father to hand over all our valuables." Reno takes a breath as he finds himself lost in the memory. "He wouldn't do it and they began to fight. My mother told me to run, I remember hearing gunshots once I managed to hide. I went back later to find them in a pool of their own blood."
Elena's throat suddenly went dry. When she told him she wanted to help him with his nightmares, she didn't think she'd learn something about his past. "The other two?" She asks hesitantly, not sure if she wants to know or not. Reno lifts his head off the back of the couch. He puts his face in his hands and sighs debating with himself whether he should tell her the next part or not. Elena senses the internal battle he's having with himself and tries to encourage him to go on. "It helps to talk about it." She reassures him.
"My wife..."
My wife...
My wife...
The words continue to repeat in her head. Wife? Reno has a wife? Since when? But Reno can't have a wife. He's too much of a womanizer to marry. He isn't interested in married, at least as far as she can tell. "W-wife?" She repeats unsure if she heard him right.
Reno's hands grab handfuls of his fiery red hair. He slowly nods his head. "You're married!?" Elena asks in shock. But Turks aren't suppose to have any type of relationships with outsiders.
"I was... a year and a half before I became a part of Shin-Ra." He explained, his voice low, only above a whisper.
Elena brings her knees up to her chest and wraps her arms around her legs as she rests her head on her knees, "Wh-what happened?" Elena is already shaking, she really doesn't want to find out what happened but she wants to help Reno and in order to do that he needs to get whatever it is off his chest.
"I was selling drugs for someone in the slums, and before you ask no I wasn't doing any. I had no other choice but to sell them." Reno's hand is removed from his face as it enters his pants pocket. He removes his wallet and hands it over to Elena. Elena hesitantly takes the wallet into her hands and opens it up. The wallet has small holders in it to place pictures in it. The picture she sees right now is of a younger Reno, she's guessing around seventeen or eighteen. She flips through the wallet until she reaches the last picture.
The picture is of Reno in his early twenties, his hair isn't as long as it is now and the scares on his face aren't there. His face is lit up with happiness as his arm is thrown around a rather beautiful woman. Her hair is brown and curly, her eyes are a greenish color like an emerald. Her face is spread out in a gorgeous smile as both her arms are wrapped around Reno's waist.
"Her names Alice." Reno's voice rang out in the darkness.
"She's very beautiful." Elena says fascinated by the picture.
Reno's eyes lower in anger, "That's what those bastards thought." He saws. Elena suddenly wishes she hadn't gotten into this conversation with him, knowing that what he says next could be more then she can bare. "I was stupid!" Reno suddenly shouts, startling Elena. "I thought I could get away with stealing some money from them." He says. Reno shakes his head thinking of his own stupidity.
"Obviously I didn't. It happened one night when I walked into our small house. When I walked through the door they had a knife to her throat and immediately attacked me within an once of my life. I wouldn't dare to fight them back since they had a knife to her throat. She watched as I was beaten, I remember her pleas for them to stop. When they stopped they typed my arms behind my back. One of them kept a foot on my back to prevent me from moving. I wish they had just killed me so I didn't have to watch what they did to Alice. They each took turns raping her, right in front of me. I tried to stop them, I struggled to get up but I couldn't. I remember her screams, her tears, her blood. When they were through with fucking her they shot her in the fucking head!" Reno's shoulders are shaking by this point as he holds back his tears.
Elena just sits there with her head hung low, ashamed for having Reno tell her all this. She doesn't know how she can comfort him in anyway because she herself is crying silently at this point. But Reno isn't finished with his story. He pushed himself forward to finish it, to get it out in the open.
"They left me there on my floor, Alice's blood covering almost the entire room. They didn't kill me, they left me alive. They knew that making me live through it would be far worse then killing me." Reno releases a long breath, trying to calm himself down, "And the last person who is dead because I was so helpless was... my unborn son Alice was carrying in her at the time."
Elena couldn't help herself. She immediately jumped over to him and wraps her arms around him crying her eyes out. Startled by the sudden added weight on him, Reno fell off the couch, taking Elena with him making his head bang on the floor. "Ow.." Is all he can mention as Elena cries on his chest. Slowly he begins to laugh, Elena following suite between sobs. Soon his laughter erupts as he laughs hysterically.
Elena sniffs as she punches his chest to make him stop laughing, "It's not funny." She says sadly, "No one deserves to go through that. Not even an asshole like you." Reno let's out a sigh as he sits up, bringing Elena with him. Elena dries her eyes with her sleeve, "I'm sorry I made you recall all that. I shouldn't of, I had no business to pry, I just couldn't stand to here you cry in the middle of the night." Elena explains.
Reno just sits there and stares at her, his face expressionless. He raises his left hand to her cheek, causing Elena to glance up into his eyes in surprise. Her gaze locks with his but she doesn't move away from his touch. Slowly Reno leans forward, pulling Elena towards him with his hand. She doesn't resist as he pulls her towards him. Their lips meet half way. Slowly Elena wraps her arms around Reno's neck, deepening the kiss.
Earth to Elena! What the hell are you doing! This is RENO! Okay what the hell is happening here? Why am I not beating the shit out of him for kissing me? And why am I returning his kiss? I feel sorry for what has happened to him? Maybe. Or maybe it's because for the past few months I've been getting more and more attracted to him then I'd like to admit.
While Elena was lost in her little argument inside her head, Reno had managed to pick her head and begin to carry her towards her bedroom. Elena wasn't complaining, strangely enough. She moans into their everlasting kiss. Reno places her down on the bed and begins to unbutton her shirt while Elena struggles to get his jacket off.
(A/N- And I'll leave the rest to the imagination to you sick readers because I just don't type that shit, so sorry if you were all getting excited about it .MWAHAHAHAHAAHA!)
Elena groggily opens her eyes to the morning sun shinning through her window. Her eyes snap open immediately as she realizes her head is moving up and down on a rather warm surface. She realizes it's Reno's bare chest that she's using as her pillow. The nights, or rather early morning events flash through her mind causing a deep blush to spread across her face, 'Oh my god! I can't Believe I actually did THAT! With RENO no less' She has to admit though, it isn't as bad as she making it sound.
Elena hesitantly lifts her head up to see Reno's sleeping face, 'Can't sleep on beds huh?' She thinks sarcastically. She gently places her head back down on his chest making his stir a bit before he opens his eyes.
Reno lifts up his arms and stretches as he yawns, then he pauses as he realizes that he's not on the couch but in a rather comfortable bed. And that there's some weight on his chest. He glances down the length of his body to see Elena half laying on him. His arms drop to his sides as he remembers what happens. His gaze goes up to the ceiling, "Wow... Didn't see this coming." He says uncomfortably. Elena shifts a bit nervously after the comment. Reno smirks and wraps his arms around her, "Does this mean I can sleep in the bed too?" He asks innocently. Elena groans in annoyance but Reno can feel the smile she's hiding against his chest.
Okay y'all. That's it. It's five o'clock in the morning and I'm swamped. I must say that I think this turned out pretty well. Think of this chapter as a way to show what our two rather 'friendly' Turks have been up to all this time heeheehee. LOL I hope not everyone out there is an anti-Turk reader or I may not get any reviews. And man was this chapter fricking long too! I probably could of made it two chapters but like I said before I didn3'3t3 want it to interrupt the main coarse of events too long. I said it once and I'll say it once more. My best writings appear when I'm tired, I know I'm weird. well anyways, Review Y'all! TTNC Oh and before I go I'd like to say. Howdy Firefly! Nice to have ya back, haven't heard from ya in a while. Ok... I'm good now. I got this whole Elena/Reno idea out of my head. Time for a nice twelve hour nap. Begins to walk away while scratching the back of his head "What the HELL was I thinking!"
