Challenge: Rufus, Reno and a spoon.
"Where is it?" Rufus demands, tossing important documents over his shoulder without even looking. Said papers smack Reno, who just walked in on the nose, leaving the Turk blinking stupidly at the Vice President.
"Uh…" Reno says intelligently, scratching his head as he looks around the room which looked like Typhoon had trampled through it. "What the hell?" Rufus looks up from tearing apart his couch.
"Reno! Thank god you're here!" Rufus shouts out, glomping the Turk who stares at him like he's lost his mind. He knew he shouldn't have volunteered for baby-sitting, I mean body guard duty today. "Have you seen my spoon?"
"Your…spoon?" Reno asks, blinking stupidly at the blonde who just smiles serenely up at him. The redhead found himself wondering if maybe it was bad thing that Rufus actually liked him.
"Yes my spoon…Have you seen it?" Rufus asks, bouncing impatiently. Reno sighs, he had a sinking feeling that Tseng was going to blame him for all this.
"What does it look like?" Reno asks, glancing around the room to see if he could spot anything vaguely spoon-like. "And what do you need a spoon for anyway?."
"You don't know?" Rufus says, blinking incredulously at the green-eyed Turk. Reno shakes his head, if he had known what it was for he wouldn't have asked. "Spoons for Hojo are like Crosses for Vampires. And I'm going to see him in thirty minutes so I really need a spoon." Reno sweatdrops.
"Does it have to be a certain spoon?" Reno asks, looking at the blonde who shakes his head. "Alright then you sit tight here and I'll go get some spoons from the mess hall." Reno turns to walk out the door. His hand on the handle he pauses and looks over his shoulder. "And get someone to clean up this office before I get in trouble." And with that he walked out, shaking his head.
Sometimes he wondered what age Rufus really was.
It's really... interesting to see how the way I write Rufus has changed and developed over the years. This isn't like the way I write him now, but there's something endearing about how innocent he comes off in comparison.
Thanks to all who read and reviewed. I really appreciate it .
