Julio Rodriguez walked into the bedroom where he knew the love of his life would be waiting, and hopefully she was in the same romantic mood as he was. To see his beautiful angel in all her angelic beauty would be a perfect ending to the perfect day.
"Angelina? My love, are you in there?" Julio called out in his rich Spanish accent. Tucking a stray lock of his lush blond locks behind his ear, the tanned man pushed open the door to the bedroom, where he knew his lover would be. As he opened the door, the faint light of candle light washed over his face before his azure eyes fell upon the most beautiful sight in the world.
There laying on the creamy silk sheets of the bed was his lovely Angelina, in all her lovely nakedness, with a single red sheet strategically placed over all her most intimate places.
"Oh, Julio! I've been waiting for you all night! I want you and to come and fill me with everything that I desire!" Angelina cried seductively, throwing the red cloth off her to reveal her body to the man she loved the most.
Evan sighed as he pulled the smutty romance novel close to his chest, being very careful not to lose his place. Letting out another deep sigh, Evan closed his eyes and allowed a content smile to form across his pale features.
"Oh, Julio. Why couldn't you be here, and gay?" Evan said, the smile not leaving his face. Pulling the book away from his chest, the redhead looked closely at the cover in the dimly lit room. A handsome blond man, buff and shirtless holding a dark haired goddess close to him. "That's it. I have to convince Seifer to grow his hair out, start tanning and develop a thick accent." He determined, not hearing the sound of another person coming into the living room where he lay on the couch.
"I'm not so sure that someone can spontaneously develop a thick accent." the voice laughed, causing Evan to fall off the couch, and in turn making him lose his page.
"Just great. Now you made me go and lose my page. And it was just getting into the steamy sex scene. I'm gonna have to go looking for all of 5 minutes to get back to that particular scene of smutty goodness." Evan pouted, picking himself, then his book up.
"And I am so sure that you were completely turned on by the thought of a guy and a girl going at it." she laughed even harder and took a seat in the large lazy boy that sat across from the coach.
"I admit. I wouldn't mind if that Angelina chick had a penis. But at the same time. I don't read ones unless they have anal in them." Evan had a smirk plastered over his freckled face as he looked over to his companion.
"I seriously thought that you were going to completely freak out when you saw me." Raven whispered, loud enough for only Evan to be able to hear her. This was the first time that they would be sitting down and talking since they had been roommates all those months ago.
"I don't know much anymore. I have no clue about most things. Being in that smelly place for the past couple days really gave me time to think about my life. The little things that I have been neglecting or taking for granted over the last nine months. Like Seifer. I don't know why he stayed with me. I wouldn't have." Evan said, in a more serious tone then Raven had ever heard the SeeD speak in.
"Believe it or not. He and Squall have been the two people that have been the nicest to me since I showed up. And you've been a topic that Seifer and I talk about a lot. I think that it really helped he cope with you being gone." Showing her nervousness to being around her former house mate, Raven started to play with a few strands of her loose waist length hair.
"Squall? Being nice? Are we talking about the same heartless high commander slash uber sorcerer of doom? As in complete asshole 99.564821 of the time? And just plain cold the rest of the time? That Squall?" Evan asked, being a little over dramatic, completely breaking the serious mood.
Raven couldn't help but laugh. "Yeah, that Squall. I don't know. But he's actually been really nice to me. He reinstated my SeeDship before we left. Only rank 10, rather than the 27 I was before I left, but it's a start to my new life." The dark haired girl sighed, a little relieved but at the same time was apprehensive about the whole starting over thing.
"So are you going to be staying in Balamb after all this? Are you going to be easily accessible to tease about everything after this is all over?" Evan continued his interrogation.
"How can you act like nothing happened? Everything that I did? Why have you just forgotten about all that? When a few days ago you went into a complete mental breakdown when you saw me? And the compassion you showed for me earlier today? Evan. I know that I can't be the easiest person in the world for you to forgive, but its just too much if you act like none of that ever happened. Because it did. And Falcon and Crowe are both dead because of that." Raven started to break down, letting a lot of the pent up anger and frustration that she had been feeling for most of the mission out in the single expression of emotion.
The red head sighed a deep sigh and placed the romance novel onto the table beside the coach. "Rave, I told you. I thought about my life a lot over the past few days. I've been taking way too many things for granted since everything happened. I couldn't grasp everything that had happened. I wasn't ready to accept the things that I knew had happened. I wanted to make my own utopian reality. And when something happened inside my bubble world that wasn't normal, I didn't know how to react. When that would happen, my brain just went on auto pilot. I couldn't help it. So when my whole world came crashing down with nothing familiar, I thought. More than I have in my entire life combined probably. And one thing that I took for granted was our friendship. We were great friends. I wanna go back to the time of the nibbying iky iky ya ya's." Evan looked up at his former friend, who now had silent tears running down her face.
"You sound like you've been practising that one for a while." smiled Raven, laughing through her tears.
"I have. The better part of at least 10 hours when I was in that cell. Did it sound like I rushed it to you?" Evan asked, causing Raven to laugh even harder.
"No. Good speed." She was able to get out amongst the laughs. "I think that this friendship is getting off to a great second start."
"Good." Evan smiled his dorky smile then picked his book up again. "Tell me something. Do you think that this guy looks like Seifer?"
Raven couldn't help but laugh even more. Wiping a stray tear off her cheek she looked down, afraid to see what Evan was showing her. "Holy shit. It does look like him. Geez, Ev. You have to do a background check on that boyfriend of yours. Because if he did more topless model shoots I would love a copy or two."
"Hey. Mine. Hands off." Evan spoke in the tone of a six year old, clutching the book to his chest once again, as if it was his most prized possession in the world.
"I missed this." admitted Raven, and Evan nodded in agreement as he laughed. "If only I could get the rest of your friends to warm up to me a little more."
"Why? Do you have a problem with someone?" Evan questioned, completely oblivious to what was going on between Raven and Quistis.
