Way of Living

CloudxReno; occasional other pairings.

xXx

I wasn't jealous before we met

Now every man I see is a potential threat

And I'm possessive, it isn't nice

You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice

But now it isn't true

Now everything is new

And all I've learned has overturned

I beg of you...

Reno smirked against the skin of his partner's neck, taking on his lover's scent. If asked to describe it in one word, he would say addicting, as the other man himself.

He always thought he would end up alone; that Turks weren't allowed to be happy but that was when Shinra was a prominent company that ruled over the world. At the moment he wasn't more than a loyal bodyguard to Rufus Shinra.

Now, he had found a faithful, loving lover but, to his dead mother's dismay – he hoped: he still couldn't stand hearing about the bitch – his lover was a man.

And not just any man. His lover was no other than Cloud Strife, one of the most wanted pieces of ass on Edge, both by women and men.

Just the thought that he owned the blond made his smirk widen and his hug tighten. It wasn't that hard, really: it only took a couple of drinks, a few flirting words and, bam!, the guy was plastered on his back, moaning and demanding more of the redhead.

Thus, they became a couple. Reno had never thought he would become so attached to Cloud, though. He was free, a lone wolf. He would laugh at anyone that would dare say that someday, he would be wrapped around the swordsman's – or anyone else's – little finger.

It surprised him at first when he realized it... But he didn't really mind, he mused as he lightly kissed Cloud's shoulder. It felt good, having someone to fight for, to come back to after a particularly stressful day.

It was like shooting a sitting duck

A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck

I still don't know what you've done with me

A grown-up man should never fall so easily

I feel a kind of fear

When I don't have you near

Unsatisfied, I skip my pride

I beg you dear...

Cloud smiled softly as Reno kissed his shoulder, a pleasurable shiver running down his arms and chest.

He still wondered how the hell he ended up where he was, safely trapped within Reno's arms.

Some said it was fate, other's that he had been drugged or was being manipulated by the Turk behind him...

The blond didn't really care: all that mattered was being with his lover; being the only one with the permission to kiss Reno's soft lips, the one that had the privilege to spend the cold nights of winter snuggled against the redhead's side...

It was kind of scary, the size of the feeling bottled up inside his heart... It was so warm, tender and yet it was frightening. Cloud couldn't remember the last time he had fallen so damn hard for someone. Was it Tifa? No... Sephiroth? Maybe, he couldn't really remember...

Cloud bit his lip, swallowing his fears as Reno started humming softly into his ear.

He was scared it was all a dream and that someday, he would wake up to find that Reno was still a bloody Turk and that he was just some random dude who saved the world from an alien but right now... Nothing else mattered as he closed his eyes, turning to rest his cheek against Reno's exposed, warm chest.

Don't go wasting your emotion

Lay all your love on me

Don't go sharing your devotion

Lay all your love on me

They had found shelter; love together and they weren't willing to let it go.

Not until death broke them apart.
