A/N: Short, not-quite-but-almost Reffie drabble, 100 words minus the title, and it's weird that my first FF7 fic is Reffie. I would have thought it would be CidShera, but hey, it just kinda happened. Review, if you would be so kind. It makes me happy.

Companion

It's not like she can't live without him. Reno's not her one-and-only, truly-madly-deeply kind of lover. He's not even a lover in her mind.

More like a constant companion in her thoughts.

Even when she's thinking about other guys- dreamy Cloud was usually first on that list, but there are others- he's there. Lurking unobtrusively at the tail end of a thought or a sentence, hanging on for dear life.

He's always there, stained shirt and green eyes and all, leering from a safe distance, but never coming close enough to dominate her thoughts with childish fancies.

Just a constant companion.
