Yet again, she was back on her velocycle. The rush she experienced when traveling at such speeds gave her a head rush. Her fingers tingled and all her problems disappeared for a short while. Finally she arrived at Lebreau's place and parked her bike, heading in to the now not-so-quiet bar. The woman saw her step in and knew instantly she was needed. Light watched as she patted an empty spot along the bench and she sat down, letting out a heavy sigh as she rested her head against the lacquered wood.
"I take it you had a chat then?" Lebreau got straight to the point
"I suppose you could say that"
"You didn't!" light frowned
"Lebreau! Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions. Don't you think it would be kind of stupid to do that, especially with the current situation anyway" the bartender poured her a drink and gestured to one of the guys out the back before pulling up a stool
"So, what is the current situation then?" Lebreau was fairly skilled when it came to dealing with people's problems, but Light was a special case it seemed
"I don't even know, she said some pretty intense things..." the soldier took a gulp of her drink and winced, she wasn't one to drink very often, let alone when she had problems
"Like? You can't just leave me hanging here Light!" the woman seemed interested in what had transpired between the two women
"Well she wasn't sorry at all for what happened, she said... ugh the things she said" light trailed off and Lebreau snapped her fingers
"I'm the only other one you can tell all of this to, considering nobody knows what happened" the soldier looked up at the woman
"So nobody saw us? Wow... and you really don't mind me spilling all of this onto you?" Lebreau laughed
"Light, are you forgetting I'm a bartender, I spend all day and night with drunks who rant their problems to me, It would be a nice change listening to someone I actually know for once. Light finished off her drink and thought for a moment, remembering the words Fang had said to her
"We talked, we kissed and we stripped eachother's clothes till the both of us had nothin' left to hide."
She shuddered; the way the Pulsian had spoken those words to her, so full of emotion... it was so unlike her.
"Well, basically she said she wanted to see who I really was and that was her only chance to do so. Normally I wouldn't be phased by this but... the way she said it... she referred to me as Claire." Even Lebreau knew what Fang was like, hell, she knew what everyone was like when it came to the soldier's real name. She was Lightning Farron; nobody dared call her Claire, nobody but Serah, and Fang anyway.
"Wow... that sounds kinda heavy." Light nodded and requested another drink
"So how do you feel anyway love? I mean, you may not remember the whole thing, but I won't lie, I saw the pair of you uh, over in the corner before you took off." The soldier frowned upon knowing the woman had seen the pair of them
"And?"
"And it looked pretty intense... you were all over each other, grinding and grabbing and groping, hell I thought I was going to have to kick the pair of you out before you got naked in the middle of the club" the soldier groaned and sculled her second drink for the night
"So many people would have seen me, oh god what if someone from work-" Lebreau placed a finger over the soldiers lips and shook her head
"Don't worry, everyone was so far gone by then they wouldn't have known who you were." the soldier slapped the womans hand away
"What am I gonna do? I mean, I had sex with Fang, that doesn't exactly happen casually for me." She noticed a small smile creep over the woman's face
"Was she your first?" the soldier was taken aback over the comment and stumbled over her words
"I, she, wait what? No! I've had sex with people before"
"Guys" Lebreau butt in, "you've had sex with guys before, and as far as I know, Fang's no guy." The pink haired woman blushed slightly and Lebreau giggled
"Oh Light, so you've never done anything with a girl before then?" the soldier shook her head
"I uh... I don't actually think I'm drunk enough to discuss this..." the bartender made his way over and Lebreau spouted a bunch of mumbo jumbo Light had no idea of, she managed to catch a few liquor names in amongst it all but that was it.
"I really don't think I should be getting trashed again tonight Lebreau, maybe we should save this for another night..." the woman shook her head
"You've gotta sort this out, and fast. You've already started going on about it, may as well keep it going?" the soldier groaned and squinted her eyes shut for a moment before sighing
"Okay, but I'm not going to write myself off like I did last night, okay?" Lebreau nodded and thanked the male behind the bar before passing light an interesting concoction
"I made that up myself, trust me, it'll hit you harder than a tonne of bricks, but you won't be worse than last night, honest!" Light took a sip of the curious mixture and her eyes widened
"Wow, this is really tasty! How did you manage this?" The woman grinned and took a sip of her own
"With many mornings of hung over Fang's, that's how. She was my test dummy" Light chuckled at the idea and continued to drink
"So anyway, as you were saying, you've never done anything with a girl before?" Light shook her head
"I've uh... thought about it, and I may have made out with a girl or two back in high school, but other than that I guess not... I never really had time to establish whether I really was into girls or it was a phase, but hey, I'm 21 and don't look twice at guys, yet I'd look at you and stare straight at your chest – not to weird you out or anything" Lebreau wiggled her eyebrows and shifted closer to the soldier
"At least buy me dinner Light, gosh!" the pink haired woman nudged her away playfully and shook her head
"Seriously Lebreau, I'm having enough trouble sorting my head out as it is without you trying to plant nasty things into it!" Lebreau thought for a moment and leant closer towards lights ear
"You know, we can head back into the staff area, people won't bother us there and you won't have to worry about being overheard" the soldier gave her a suspicious look
"You're not trying to seduce me are you Lebreau..." the woman frowned
"Gosh Light I'm almost offended! Come on, follow me." She took Light's hand and they headed into the staff lounge, unaware of the shocked Serah and Vanille standing in the entrance watching them.
"See! I told you it'd be nicer in here didn't I?" Lebreau leant back and sighed into the comfiest couch Light had ever sat on
"I suppose you're right, especially this couch" Light took another large mouthful of her drink and allowed the pillows to engulf her
"Light, Light! C'mon, scull the rest your drink with me, may as well finish it off eh?" the pink haired woman sighed as she picked up the glass
"I'm never going to escape you drunken lot am I?" Lebreau shook her head and the soldier took a deep breath before emptying her glass and throwing her companion a smug smile
"Finished first" Lebreau looked like a small child the way she stuck her bottom lip out
"You're mean to me, and I thought we had a topic to discuss!" the soldier poked her tongue out and lay back into the couch
"You're the one who changed it, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, what should I do?" the woman stared at the pink haired soldier for her sudden outburst and sighed
"Well, how do you feel?"
"Well that's the thing, I don't know! I mean, I feel different when I'm around her, but... she's Fang, like, gorgeous, toned, obnoxious Fang! I don't get it... Why do I feel like this towards her?" Lebreau frowned and squeezed her chin, deep in though
"Well, would you sleep with her again?" the soldier slid along the back of the couch to Lebreau's shoulder and sighed
"I don't know, I mean, from what I can remember it was amazing, but... I don't think I could bear it if she hurt me..." Lebreau ran her fingers lightly through the soldier's hair
"Well you'll never know unless you give her the chance to not hurt you, y'know? Cause I mean, not being hurt is all good and well, but what about the opposite?" Light looked up at the woman and raised an eyebrow
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, that if you don't give the bad a chance, the good won't have a chance either" light laughed quietly
"Wow, you're going all deep and meaningful on me Breau, that's crazy!" Lebreau giggled upon the use of her new nickname and sighed
"Well It's true y'know, I've seen how she looks at you, how she's alwayslooked at you, I know she's more than open for a chance, and you two have a strong friendship, If worse comes to worse that is." Lightning sighed and tilted her head, allowing the woman to scratch the other side of her head.
"So Light, I'm assuming you haven't been with many people, am I correct here?" the question took the woman off guard and she opened her eyes, staring for a moment
"Uhh, I suppose so, why?"
"How many?" Lebreau asked with a grin
"Well that depends, are we talking sex or kissing or what?" her companion thought for a moment
"Both!" Light frowned
"Hey that's cheating! But regardless, I've only had sex with two guys, but I never kissed either of them. I know you probably think that's really stupid and stuff but it was weird, I just couldn't bring myself to kiss them." Lebreau looked caught off guard
"Wow... I'm surprised. You're gorgeous after all... could you bring yourself to kiss me? JUST FOR FUN!" she held her hands up in surrender and the soldier giggled
"JUSTfor fun?" Lebreau nodded slightly and Light thought for a moment
"You know, it could help you realise if you have feelings for Fang!" The woman piped up and Light looked shocked
"This is true! If I kiss you that means if I don't get any spark maybe there's something with Fang? Or I'll remember the spark with Fang... I don't know." Lebreau decided to take matters into her own hands. Since the woman was pretty much willing, she made sure the door was shut and walked over to the soldier, straddling her on the couch
"Wow Lebreau... I thought we were just gonna kiss..." she grinned and lightly kissed the woman's jaw
"May as well make it believable" Lebreau lightly bit her lip before slowly leaning in to kiss the soldier
"Wait... I don't think we should do this" she gestured to their current position and Lebreau frowned slightly
"If you're sure" she intentionally ground her hips into the soldiers, causing a moan to escape her throat. Her hands shot over her mouth and she looked shocked
"You're not allowed to do thatt!" Light whined at the woman and Lebreau giggled
"It's all in good fun, do you want to kiss me or not?" the solder frowned and grabbed the woman's face.
Their lips met momentarily in a heated frenzy, their tongues slowly massaging one another. Lebreau's hand slowly began making its way up Lights thigh and she groaned
"unfff Fang..." they snapped apart and Lebreau giggled
"See! I told you so! I knew that would happen." Light frowned
"That's all good and well but now I have to go home alone feeling like this! How am I supposed to drive home oh Etro" Lebreau also frowned and tucked her knees under her chin
"Well, you can sleep here on this couch, come home with me later, call Fang?" Light stared
"Those are all terrible ideas, I wouldn't sleep here, you'd probably jump me in my sleep and Fang... I guess she's my only ticket home isn't she, HOLD ON I'LL CALL HER!" The soldier picked up her phone and began fumbling around with the keypad to attempt a call to Fang.
"Mmmph,hello?" a groggy voice answered her on the other end of the receiver
"Fangggggg hello I'm sorry did I wake you?"
"Light, are you okay? Where are you? What's going on?" The soldier giggled and Lebreau sat behind her making inappropriate gestures
"Oh wow, Lebreau stop that! I uh, came down to chat with Lebreau then she gave me this really tasty drink that she apparently tested on you and now we've been talking for ages then I realized I kinda have no way home and oh maker I'm sorry..." Fang sat up in bed and frowned
"Lebreau is a bad influence on people, are you at the bar?"
"Yes! In the fancy back room with the comfy couch"
"Okay, I'll be there soon, for the love of Etro, don't do anything stupid till I get there, okay?" Light grinned
"Thank you so much Fang! I'll do my best!" she hung up the phone and Fang let out a loud groan, swinging her legs over the side of her bed and putting some clothes on.
