"Isn't she a bit young for you?"
Tseng looked over his shoulder at the red-head sitting on a pile of junk behind him. "Perhaps. Are you jealous?"
His partner laughed as he hopped to the ground and slipped up behind him. "Should I be?"
The way the words were purred into his ear were enough. Feeling the other's body pressed against his back caused him to close his eyes in an attempt to keep his composure. "Reno, we're working."
"We're watching a girl that doesn't know we're here, and it's not like anyone can see us. Besides, I don't think this is where we're supposed to be according to Veld's orders."
Tseng's head ducked forward. No, this was not where they were supposed to be at all, but he had to check on her. If Hojo knew that he knew where she was, his place as Turks leader was as good as lost. Still...
A pair of lips pressed against the back of his neck as hands massaged his shoulders through his jacket. "We're going to miss the target we're supposed to be after, Tseng."
"We have enough time. Not a word about this side trip."
"Secret's safe with me, boss."
Tseng turned to face Reno. He knew what his second wanted, and what would appease him for now. "I've been neglecting you, haven't I?" Reno nodded slightly, a grin crossing his face as he did so. "Then I'll have to remedy that when we get back."
Reno paused as Tseng started to pull away. "Tseng!"
The older Turk struggled to hold back a smile as he watched his second. "Something wrong, Reno?"
Frustrated. Reno was frustrated by the way he shifted his stance and looked away. "No. Nothin's wrong, boss."
"Good." He barely gave Reno time to gasp as he reached out to grab the red-head's chin. As his lips pressed against Reno's, his free arm slipped around the other's waist to pull their bodies close again. "It will be late by the time we get back. We can make our report in the morning."
Reno nodded silently as Tseng pulled away. At least he'd behave for the rest of the evening.
