Once again I don't own Final Fantasy VII or One Week. :)
Everyone in Shinra Company wore black. The President had died. The funeral was very long. But the food was good. Or at least the now drunk Reno thought so.
Actually, there was one person who did not attend the funeral. Rufus had refused to go. He also refused to wear anything but his white suit. For these two reasons, many didn't like their new president. Some even thought Rufus was part of the President's death. Not many of the employees had much respect for him. But he didn't care. It was his company now. That meant his way or the highway.
Reno, still drunk, thought he would go see Rufus and cheer him up. After all, his father just died. The poor thing was probably minutes from slashing his wrists. Or so he thought.
"Rufus! Ruffie, Ruffie, Rufus!" Reno stumbled into the office.
"Reno…" He hated being called "Ruffie."
"Why weren't you at yer daddy's funeral thingy?"
"You're drunk, aren't you?"
"No. You're drunk! And sexy…" When Rufus ignored him he said, "God it's hot in here," and took his jacket and shirt off.
"Reno, at least put your shirt back on."
"I dun wanna."
Rufus continued ignoring him and unpacking his things. He had just moved to President's office on the top floor.
"Yaknow… yer funny when yer mad…" Rufus glared at him. He didn't understand Reno sometimes. "Really, ya are. But I wouldn't laugh at my widdle Ruffie. Did ja know I was laughin at yer dad's funeral? They kept sayin a buncha funny shit."
"Why would you do that?"
"Dunno…" Reno shrugged. "But it was funny shit, man."
"Reno, you're the only person I know who could laugh at a funeral, drunk or not, and get away with it."
"Aren't I?" Rufus unpacked a few more boxes. Reno watched him. "I like Sailor Moon."
"That's nice."
"I mean those girls are like, hawt, yo."
"Could you do me a favor for once and not speak the first thing that comes to mind?"
Rufus unpacked more boxes. He had no time for any stupid anime Reno watched. There had been many times that Reno tried to make him watch some. In his mind they were pointless and wasted time.
"Hey boss…"
"For the love of- What do you want?"
Reno smirked. "I brought some shrimp up." He took out four shrimp wrapped in a napkin.
"Where did you get that?"
"They gave us food after the funeral."
"I don't want any. Its probably cold now anyways."
"I can warm it up."
"I don't have a microwave in here."
"Don't need one." Reno took out a lighter. He clicked it and held a shrimp over it. It caught on fire.
Rufus threw his arms in the air. "You're crazy!"
Reno stared at the flaming shrimp. "Cool… I wonder…" Reno grinned and walked to a window.
"Put it out, Reno." The man never had good ideas.
Reno opened the window. "This is gonna be fun." He dropped it. Something so simple could entertain the Turk. So he lit another one and dropped it.
"Reno, stop. That's an order." He had dropped the third.
"Nah uh. Its too fun." He dropped the last one. "Oh shit. I think that one hit Hojo."
"Like you can see."
"I can't. But I can hear him yellin."
In less than ten seconds Rufus' cell was ring. Hojo said flaming food was falling, shrimp just hit him, and he better get that damn redheaded Turk under control. Every time something stupid happened, everyone assumed it was Reno.
"You are the biggest idiot in all of Gaia."
Rufus turn away form Reno. That was a mistake on his part. Reno tackled him to the floor.
"Reno!"
"Yea, Ruffie?"
"Get off." He pushed Reno off and got in his chair. Rufus could feel the rug burns on his knees already.
Reno sat on his floor like a dog that knew it did something wrong but it wasn't sure what exactly it did. It was really a sad sight.
"Reno…" Rufus didn't know how to say it. It was really a simple thing. The only problem was that he had never done it before. ""Look… I realize it's not your fault the old man caught us."
"I'm sorry I frewed the shrimp out the window, boss. Guess I'll go take care of that."
Reno left Rufus in his office alone. The door closed and he threw his jacket on, without his shirt, and walked down the crowded hallway. When he was in the elevator by himself he said out loud, not drunk at all, "Gotcha, boss." Now all he had to do was wait for Rufus to say sorry.
A.N. Reno's fun to write when he's drunk... Pretending to be drunk. And we all know that if something stupid happens in the Shinra building, the first person to be blamed is poor widdle Reno. Oh and the Ruffie thing... Yeah, Megan and I were talking about him one day and I called him "Ruffie." So now his name is Ruffie Shiney... X) Random equals win.
