CHOICE

Chapter 004

Have you ever felt as if you were being torn in to different directions? That is exactly how Sephiroth felt as he stood in the empty main lobby of the Shinra building. He more then anything wanted to dump the now passed out cadet (who was in his arms) on his rack in the Cadet bunkered…but didn't really want to be seen carrying said Cadet. He also wanted to quickly get to his apartment--but still had the issue of the sleeping cadet in his arms. He snarled before quickly crossing the lobby and jabbing the up elevator button--watching impatiently as it said elevator slowly made it's way down from the 50th floor do the main lobby. Once the elevator arrived and the doors dinged and slid open, Sephiroth stepped in and jabbed the button to close the doors and the button that would take him to his floor, cadet in arms all the time.

Once Sephiroth had made it to his apartment door, he began attempting to reach his card key when the door flew open and an enthusiastic Zack with a spoon of ice cream in hand opened the door. "SEPH glad your--why is Cloud with you?" He asked blinking, surprise writing itself all over the LT. Expression. Sephiroth let out an annoyed and overly agitated sigh as he pushed his way passed the other man and entered the apartment, dropping the cadet on the sofa--not so gracefully. He then dusted himself off.

"Well, as it turns out Javics was shipped out earlier--so he sent this little…thing to talk to me." He snapped waving his hands at Cloud as he 'lovingly' gave him the title of 'thing'. Zack snorted and began laughing. Sephiroth would have found it funnier if ice cream chunks had come out the LT. Nose--but they didn't. when would I have found that entertaining?

"Sephiroth, he's unprotected, kill them both--he's the one who will get in your way."

Sephiroth sighed, crossing his arms. "So he's staying here till he wakes up."

Zack nodded, taking another bite of his ice cream.

"So, I went and got some wutainese food and those good yellow egg roll things you like." Zack stated as he headed for the kitchen. "Have you any idea how expensive this stuff is getting, I swear Shinra is raising the prices to everything." He grumbled as he started going through the bags of wutainese food.

Later that evening once Zack had passed out on the small love seat Sephiroth decided he'd catch up on some paperwork which was in desperate neat to be done. He glanced up as Zack grumbled and rolled onto his side, curling up into a tight ball hugging one of Sephiroths boots of all things. Sephiroth shook his head looking back to his paper work when another muffle--this time from the other side of the room--caught his attention. He looked over to see the little blond sitting up, though slouched over and attempting to get to his feet--failing miserably. "Cloud?" Sephiroth questioned, standing up, eyes narrowing at the little blond, who had gotten to his feet and began stumbling towards the hall…or in that general direction at any rate.

"I…I…" The blond turned in circles lifting his finger into the air…his eyes half closed. "Gotta pee…." He mumbled before falling against the wall and landing on his rump. Sephiroth slouched his shoulders slightly walking over and picking up the blond and setting him back on his feet, holding his shoulders tightly as to keep him from falling again. "Whe---werf your baffroom?" He slurred. Sephiroth wrinkled his nose slightly, the blond smelled like alcohol--A LOT of alcohol.

"This way Cloud." He stated turning the blond towards the hall, gently pushing him forward till they reached the bathroom. He shoved the blond inside and closed the door. He leaned against the wall, crossing his arms. 'He better not pee on my floor.'

"I don't understand why you won't get rid of them Sephiroth?"

'Mother…you sound so far away.' He relayed to her the lonely feelings that seemed to be continually enveloping him. 'I can hardly sense you anymore….'

"Don't let these emotions frighten you," He felt a slight comforting sensation brush against his mind. "Though I do not understand why you wait…I trust that you will come to me when you are able. You after all, are a god, and you know what you must do."

'Yes. Now isn't a time to attempt getting to you…not when we are so far apart…but…mother?'

"…."

'Never mind.'

He pushed himself form the wall as the bathroom door opened and the little blond fell out. Sephiroth looked down at him, the blond tilted his head up and met his gaze, giving a shy smile.

"Hehe…sorry." He mumbled grabbing onto the generals legs and arms pulling himself back up to his feet. "I sorta…missed the first step."

Sephiroth cocked an eyebrow looking passed the blond to the bathroom threshold. Their were no steps. He sighed.

"No more alcohol for you Cadet Strife." He stated turning to lead the blond back to the living room to see Zack had migrated to the sofa. He sighed then jumped grabbing the blond as he fell limp against him. He looked down to see the blond had fallen sleep again. He inwardly snarled picking up the blond and leading him towards the bedroom, where he laid him on the bed before throwing his hands in the air and returning to the living room to do his paperwork.

Sephiroth worked for several hours on his paper work until he was finally finished. He sighed and smiled victoriously before stretching and standing. He looked at the clock. It was already two in the morning and he had to be up at six. He sighed but knew he could survive with only four hours of sleep--he had survived longer with out any. He turned and headed into the bedroom when he froze in the door way. He snarled--he'd forgotten that Cloud was there. He closed the door behind him, locking it. He glared upon the blond figure laying in the center of his bed. There was so much he could do to that figure, hurt it, cut it, make it bleed. So much he could do with little to nothing to stop him. How he would love to see that figure squirm beneath him in agony--bleeding, pleading for death.

"Ugh…Seph…iroth."

The general froze, his eyes growing wide momentarily wondering if he had woken the blond. He walked around the bed and gazed down at the blond.

"Cloud?" He asked quietly. The blond was still asleep. His brows shifted forward, nearly knitting together.

Cloud shifted in his sleep, arching his neck back so his throat was exposed, his hand resting on his stomach which was rising and falling quickly along with his chest as his breathing increased. "Hmnnmm…" His hand traced a little higher along his chest as he shifted again. "Seph…iroth."

Sephiroth felt himself starring at the blond--confusing obvious on his face as he eyed the boy.

"What…what is he? Is he having a…"

The boy groaned and arched slightly, panting a little before turning onto his side and snuggling into one of the pillows his hips shifting in a flexing motion. Sephiroth took a few steps back as the boy arched and turned again panting harder. "He is having a wet dream!" he snapped quietly, disgust being replaced with morbid curiosity. "About me?" he mumbled. He lowered himself onto the bed till he was hovering over the blond, his arms and legs caging the boy in place. He watched the boys face, his hair falling over his shoulders and framing both their faces.

"Seph…S-sephi…roth." Cloud whimpered squirming slightly against the generals arm. Sephiroth felt his stomach do a few flips. He lowered himself a little so he was resting most of his weight on his knees and his elbows--caging the blond in a little more. The boy whimpered again arching his neck slightly as he rose his hands gripping onto the front of Sephiroth's shirt. Sephiroth looked down at the hands on his chest for a moment, but when he looked back he was slightly startled to see half lidded blue eyes looking lustfully back at him. His first instinct was to jump away from the boy but before even he could register what to do the blond leaned up and their lips met. Sephiroth's eyes widened, his pupils dilating slightly. The blond moaned and arched against him. Sephiroth let out a slight grunt at the sensation of the boys obvious erection rub against his thigh and part of his own sheathed penis. The next moment, before Sephiroth could tell what had happened the blond--after letting out a struggled groan--had fallen back to the sheets seemingly peaceful. Sephiroth eyed him, jade eyes wide. 'What just happened?'
