I woke with a start, my heart racing and my skin covered in a cold sweat. I looked around my room in a panic only to realize that I was alone. I sighed as I dropped back on to my bed, my heart still racing. I looked up at the ceiling for a few seconds before I rolled my head to the side and looked at my alarm clock. 7:55. I sighed again. Reno should be here soon. With that thought in mind, I slowly slipped out of my bed and flicked on the over head light. I stumbled to my closet and slid the white door open. I quickly glanced over my wardrobe to see if I could find anything casual on the first glance. Nothing. I sighed and began to sift through the various shades of dark colors. Finally, I found something that went together; a pair of jaded and ripped jeans and a low cut black tank top. I knew it seemed a little underdressed considering it was fall but I had been to Reno's apartment once or twice and I swear that he doesn't know how to turn down the heat in that place. I quickly shimmied out of my track pants and tank top before I donned the clothing I picked out. I headed into my front room and was greeted by a joyful knock on my door. I smiled lightly and opened the door. Reno stood while leaned against my doorframe with his arms doubled over his chest. He wore a simple white t-shirt, a pair of grey jeans and a chain around his neck.
"Ya ready to go?" he asked and I nodded. Together we walked down the hall, again in complete silence.
"So what kinda of booze do you have?" I asked and Reno grinned.
"Anything you want babe." He said with a wink and I blushed again.
"How about smokes?" I asked and he pulled a pack of Next Red's out of his pocket.
"There's about 10 more back at my place." He said and I looked at him.
"10?" I asked; a bit surprised. The red head laughed and nodded.
"I don't get out much thanks to our asshole boss." He said and I laughed.
"Ok, he isn't that bad." I stated through my laughter. Reno looked down at me and scratched the back of his head.
"That's 'cause you haven' seen him when someone goes wheelin' down the hallways on a chair." He said and I laughed again.
"Let me guess, that someone was you." Reno looked down when I said that.
"In my defense, I was drunk." He huffed and shoved his hands into his pockets.
"How drunk?" I asked skeptically. Reno pulled at the collar of his shirt and looked at me almost shamefully.
"10 beers, a Texas Mickey of Kraken and half a 40 ounce of vodka…" he said quietly and I cringed, anyone who lived after drinking that much must have a liver of steel. Reno and I laughed as he stopped outside of Reno's apartment. Silently, I waited as he punched a series of digits into the keypad and, with a beep, the door swung open. I assumed that since Reno had been with the Turks for so long and the he was Second-In-Command, that he had been given a better apartment than the lower class Turks like Eva and I. I stepped into his apartment and looked around. it was the same as the previous times that I had visited; a few dishes sat in the sink, numerous empty liquor bottles and cans were left on the tables and counters, empty cigarette packs were left around the garbage can like Reno had thrown them to see if he could get them in, and the TV and Xbox were left on. I sighed with my hands on my hips.
"You seriously need to talk to Tseng about hiring you a maid or something." I joked and threw myself on to Reno's black leather couch while he grabbed a case of beer from the fridge. As he walked over to me, he smiled to himself.
"What about hiring you? I wouldn' mind seein' your body in one of them French maid outfits." He said and I kicked him in the ass as he walked by me.
"Trust me, if I was around you in something like that then I would be wearing a chastity belt underneath." I said and caught the beer that Reno had tossed at me. The older man grinned as he flopped down beside me and kicked his legs up on to the coffee table in front of us. As I kicked up my feet beside Reno's, there was a fidgeting at the door and I looked over as I took a sip of my beer.
"Don't worry, babe. It's probably just Rude." Reno said and I relaxed. I wasn't very good at relaxing but when I was with Reno it somehow made it a little bit easier to unwind. The door opened slowly and Reno was right. Rude walked into the apartment wearing a white muscle shirt under a black leather jacket and a pair of blue jeans with a chain dangling on his hip.
"yo, Rude. How was your date?" Reno asked as he spread the arm closest to me across the back of the couch. Rude, being the silent type grunted his response as he walked over and sat in the chair next to the couch.
"it was alright I suppose, Mai had to leave early though." said the eldest Turk as he leaned forward and plucked a beer from the case with his large hands. I looked Rude up and down. I wasn't really familiar with the large, mocha skinned man because he barely said anything but he was a nice man from what I heard. He stood a few inches taller than me, which put him at roughly 6 feet or more. I knew that Reno and he were good friends since they were partners and have been for a long time.
"anyway, I should get going," Rude said as he placed the now empty beer can on the table, "Tseng wants Eva and I to give a verbal report on what happened to the chopper we were flying." He explained and I nodded in understanding while Reno hummed his response. As Rude left, I could feel as the arm behind me slowly made its way down my back and rested on my waist. I looked at Reno from the corner of my eye and I could see that he was looking at me as well. Slowly, Reno leaned forward and set his can on the table, then leaned back and tightened the grip around my waist. My face began to heat up as I was slowly pulled closer to the older man's side. I set my beer down on the table and looked at Reno; the redhead smiled lightly and then leaned closer to me. I turned away from him as his face stopped only inches from mine and he sighed. I smiled lightly to myself, I was just trying to play hard to get, but when I felt the pair of soft lips against the crook of my neck, all restraints on my composer went out the window. I bit my lip to try and hold back the moan that had pooled up in my throat as Reno began to playfully bite and nibble at the skin on my neck. I lightly titled my head to the side as Reno scooted closer to me, his warm body heating mine up even more. Both of his hands were on me now, the hand around my waist had lifted my shirt up a tad to rub small circles against the skin on my ribs while the other reached around and cupped the side of my face. my head was forced to turn toward Reno as he leaned in more and covered my lips with his. A small shiver went up my back as I lifted my hands to run through Reno's red tresses, considering how spiky they were, they were surprisingly soft and silky. I moaned softly as Reno ran his warm tongue over my bottom lip, wanting badly for me to open my mouth. I hesitantly parted my lips and Reno's tongue darted in quickly. Slowly, I began to get more and more passionate with my kissing and I crawled forward so that I was now straddling Reno's hips. I gripped the sides of Reno's face as our kiss got more heated, more passionate, more…lustful. Finally, after a few seconds, we both pulled back; gasping for air and only then did I realize that Reno's hands had grazed over my hips and were now rested on my ass.
"Reno…" I moaned while Reno's hands flexed around my ass. I looked down at him; his eyes were darker now; filled with a raging lustful intent. The lanky man grinned as he leaned up and attacked my neck again with that indecent but sharp mouth. I moaned loudly as he sucked on the sensitive juncture where my neck connected with shoulder. My eyes instinctively closed and I tilted my head back, letting Reno have more access to my neck. Slowly, I opened my eyes and froze. Everything was more intense, sharper as I looked around. I could feel my teeth become more pronounced as Reno continued kissing his way down to my collarbone.
"Reno, stop." I said and he pulled away a bit.
"what's wrong?" he asked, his breath cascading over my skin. my heart began to sink and I immediately looked down, my loose hair coming down and covering my face. I began to shudder as Reno tried to lift up my head. "come on, babe. What's wrong, yo?" he asked softly and I jerked my head away from his fingers.
"we should stop." I said, my voice becoming a little slurred as it tried to push past the fangs in my mouth. I heard Reno let out a grunt of confusion.
"Ari, what's wrong? You can tell me," he said and then leaned down to my ear, brushing the loose locks away with his fingers, "I won't push you away, please look at me." he whispered and when he leaned back, I lifted my head to look at him. I could see as he looked over my face and I knew he had seen my eyes; my now amber colored wolf eyes. I looked at Reno shamefully to see what he would do but he just smiled lightly, leaned forward and kissed each of my eyelids.
"why should we stop? There's nothing wrong." He whispered and I sighed.
"yes there is, if we continue like this then you're gonna have a wolf to deal with." I mumbled and Reno chuckled. He lightly caressed my back as he pushed the hair out of my face.
"fine," he mumbled and then rested his head on my shoulder, "but you gave me a bit of a problem, yo." He said and moved his hips a bit. I could feel the hardness in Reno's pants nudge against my thigh and I balked, and then smiled. I slipped off his lap and sunk to the floor, gently moving his thighs apart. He looked down at me with wide eyes as I looked up at him from under my lashes and proceeded to trail my hands up and down his thighs. Unhurriedly, I leaned forward; my face coming only centimeters from Reno's jeans. I could feel as Reno watched me intently, his turquoise eyes following my every move while I reached forward, unbuttoned his jeans and pulled the zipper down. Underneath, I could see his black and red boxers bulging and twitching as I let my breath begin to warm the flesh underneath even more. I smiled up at him while my hands slowly moved his pants down to his ankles. Reno let out an excited breath as I leaned down and let my tongue slowly run up the outline of his hardening member. I moved my hands forward and hooked my fingers under the elastic waistband of his boxers and slipped them down his legs to join his pants. Reno hissed as his heated member sprung free and landed on his stomach with a slap.
"oh Jesus…" he mumbled and threw his head back as I softly touched the heated flesh of his arousal. It was warm on my fingertips, like heated candle wax. The skin was smooth as I pressed my fingers harder against it, and then slowly wrapped my hand around it. I began to pump my hand up and down while Reno swore under his breath. I grinned lightly as I deliberately dragged my tongue over the slit in the head. That seemed to send shivers over Reno's skin as his body tensed and his back lifted off the couch a bit. He let out a strangled noise even as my lips were now puckered around the tip. I began to place feather light kisses across the head and down the shaft before moving back to the head and placing it on my tongue. Reno groaned loudly as I wrapped my mouth around his erection, sucking the heated rod deeper and deeper into my throat. I moaned around his arousal at the same time as one of his hands landed on my head, pushing me further toward his stomach. Soon, my nose became buried in the red nest of curls and Reno bucked his hips forward, choking me as he tried to force his member further into my mouth. I glared up at him as I slowly began to rub the underside of his arousal with my tongue while I applied a bit of suction. Reno bucked his hips forward as I began to pull away and I used my tongue to protect the sensitive flesh from being injured by my fangs.
"having fun?" I asked as I returned to pumping his member with my hand but all Reno did was moan and tilt his head to the side. I smiled before replacing my tongue back on Reno's head, swirling it and flicking it across the hardened skin.
"unnn…Ari, I'm gonna-…" Reno started but was cut off as a loud grunt was forced out of his throat. I could feel his member twitch under my hand and I grinned devilishly then covered the head again with my mouth. I pumped my hand faster and faster and Reno's hips began to buck more frequently. I could feel as Reno was being pushed closer to the edge and with a strangled cry of my name, Reno came; his white essence exploding into my mouth in uneven surges. His body convulsed lightly as I sat back on my knees and wiped my mouth with my thumb. Wearily, Reno lifted his head and watched as I swallowed what he gave me. I looked up at him and blushed.
"that…was amazing." He mumbled before letting his head fall back. I laughed lightly as I lifted his jeans and boxers and put them back around his hips. I sat down beside Reno and placed my head against his shoulder. the exhausted Turk let his arm drop off the back of the couch to grip my waist again. "if I ask again," he said and lowered his head to look at me, "would you say yes?" he asked and I looked away for a moment before smiling.
"you don't even need to ask." I said and kissed his cheek. Reno smiled happily and pulled me closer. We sat for a few minutes in silence before my phone began to vibrate. I fished it out of my pocket and answered it.
"hey, Eva." I said and there was a long silence before Eva said anything.
"get to my apartment now, Arizia." She said and hung up. I looked down at my phone before fearing the worst. I grabbed Reno's hand and hauled him to his feet.
"yo, what the hell?" he asked as I swung open the door, "can I please have a few fuckin' minutes to come down?" he asked but I was already pulling him down the hallway.
"can't, Eva wants me at her apartment ASAP." I said and Reno sighed. I stopped outside Eva's apartment and knocked hesitantly on the door. It opened slowly to reveal Eva standing with her arms across her chest. I could tell by the look on her face that she was pissed off. she took one look at me then glared at Reno and without moving, she swung her arm out and slapped him.
"Eva!" I yelled and grabbed her wrist before she could do anymore damage. Reno stumbled back a bit and glared at her, his face turning red where she had slapped him.
"what the fuck did I do this time?" he snarled and Eva's eyes widened in rage.
"you fucking pervert. I'm going to kill you for taking advantage of Ari." She growled and went to lunge for Reno again when I grabbed her.
"what the hell are you talking about? He never took advantage of me." I said and Eva whipped around to face me.
"don't fucking lie. I heard what was going on in his apartment." She said and I looked at her.
"he didn't do anything. I willingly did it myself." I said and Eva glared at me.
"you willingly gave head to that…thing?" she asked and I pressed my lips together.
"did I fucking stutter?" I retorted and Eva raised her hand to slap me but then lowered it and furrowed her brow. I glared at Eva as I clenched my teeth together. "I don't see the reason as to why I need your permission to date someone." I growled and Eva looked at me like I had just killed someone.
"you need my permission because I'm the one watching over you." She snapped.
"you may watch over me but you are not my mother nor will you ever be my mother," I said and went over to Reno's side. I watched as Eva bit her lip in frustration.
"I just want to make sure your safe." She said and I looked at her.
"a task that doesn't need to involve you sticking your nose in what I do with Reno." I quipped and Eva looked away.
"I will stick my nose where it is needed." She snapped back and those words alone broke the last hold on my anger.
"No, you will not! Not with me. I'm so sick of you shoving your nose in every little thing I do. I'm not a child, I'm 18 and I will do what I fucking want. Do you know what it feels like to have someone micromanaging you? It feels like I'm not my own person. It feels like I can't do anything by myself without having your consent. I just want to live the life I want and if that involves Reno then so be it. If you can't be fucking happy that there is someone who actually likes me then…fine with me." I said and stormed off down the hall. I could hear as Reno followed behind me and the small sobs that were racked from Eva's body as I walked away. Yes I did feel bad for yelling at Eva and making her cry but sometimes she just needs to let me do my own thing.
"That was harsh, yo." I heard Reno mumble as he tried to keep up with me. I stopped in my tracks and looked at him. I could feel the tears spring to my eyes and I slowly stepped up to Reno. I guess he must have seen that I was sad as he pulled me to his chest. I softly wept into his shirt as one of his hands held my head close to him and the other slowly ran up and down my back. He hushed me softly and then looked down at me. "That was what my old lady was like. Always complainin' that I was doing badly in school or that I got caught by the police, She never let me do what I frickin' wanted but one day I told her to go straight to hell and I never looked back." He mumbled and I felt a bit better. Maybe it was good that I told Eva what I thought. If she still wanted to be friends then maybe she wouldn't be so nosy…the main word being if.
