Welcome to the second installment of "A Shuffled Love"!

Cue Sparkles!

Lovelovelovelovelove

She's got a body like an hourglass
That's ticking like a clock –Misery Business (Paramore)

Cissnei stared out from under the foliage of the fake fichus. Genesis was talking animatedly to a busty young woman, his hands in the air flicking with each word that fell from his lips. She seemed to hang onto everyone one of his undoubtedly sugar-coated words, leaning forward a little more each time. Probably flaunting her chest. Cissnei shook the thought from her head. Now Cissnei, you don't know what they are talking about. No need to be so catty.

"Thanks, Mr. Rhapsodos. I'll see you later!" She turned on her heel and swung her hips as she walked towards the elevator.

Once the door shut, Cissnei rounded the corner officially making her presence known. "Hello Genesis."

"Cissnei." He didn't act guilty.

"Who was that beautiful lady?"

"President of Red Leather. She wanted to ask if I would attend their annual gala. I accepted. Would you like to attend with me, Love?"

"Sure!" See Cissnei, no reason to get territorial.

Did the devil make the world while God was sleeping –Little Drop of Poison (Tom Waits)

The folder dropped with a thud. Cissnei was staring at her hands were it had been only seconds before. How could Shinra allow this to happen?! "Genesis…I'm sorry." She hid her eyes behind a curtain of auburn curls.

Lovelovelovelovelove

It ain't easy, growin' up in World War III
Never knowin' what love could be
You'll see, I don't want love to destroy me
Like it has done my family –Family Portrait (Pink)

"Angeal, I don't know what to do." Genesis admitted, holding his head in his hands, massaging his temples. "How do you love, when you have only observed that kind?"

Angeal glanced at his friend and sighed. "You'll have to figure that one out Gen. I didn't have your parents. Mine…they loved each other a lot."

"That's what I thought you'd say"

Lovelovelovelovelove

But I see your true colors
Shinin' through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful,
Like a rainbow. –True Colors (Glee Cast)

"How can you love a monster like me?"

"I see you're true colors. You aren't really a monster. You're an angel." He pressed a kiss to her forehead.

Lovelovelovelovelove

Now its too late for you and your white horse to come around –White Horse (Taylor Swift)

Cissnei snuggled into the warmth known as Genesis Rhapsodos. Screw Reno, who wants that womanizer when she had a prince like Genesis.

Lovelovelovelovelove

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in awhile, since she brought you down –You Belong with Me (Taylor Swift)

"It's been awhile since we've just hung out like this Cis. We should again sometime soon." Genesis grinned and waved farewell, leaving her behind on her doorstep.

"Bye Genesis. I'll miss you when you return to your popular crowd." Cissnei whispered into the dark, smiling wistfully.

Lovelovelovelovelove

Well I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you –Paralyzer (Finger Eleven)

Cissnei was very cautious; all TURKs were. But as she looked around the room, that paranoid feeling didn't go away. I feel like someone is watching me. She slid her compact out of her trouser pocket and flipped it open. There was someone staring at her, a man in his early twenties sporting a bright red leather coat and a dangling earring. He's handsome, but not handsome enough to distract me from my job.

Lovelovelovelovelove

I walk, I ran, I jump, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
With no gravity to hold me down for real –No Air (Jordan Sparks & Chris Brown)

The journey had been difficult for a day trip. Genesis had trekked through cities, took a brief swim across a lake, and had flown countless miles through the chilling air as high as he could possible fly. But it was worth it after he saw her face light up when he landed on the Shinra building roof that night, a bouquet in one hand and a box of assorted chocolates in the other.

Lovelovelovelovelove

Boy walk in the spot, he's so fresh and
He got what he needs to impressin'
Just look at the way that he dressin'
Ain't no question chicks like oh. –He Said She Said (Ashley Tisdale)

Cissnei had to admit it; there was no denying it. Genesis Rhapsodos is a snazzy dresser. He struts like a model on the runway.

Lovelovelovelovelove

You are the one –One (Crystal Kay)

"You are so sure of yourself. How do you know?" Cissnei couldn't help but question, her ocher eyes staring up thoughtfully into his azure ones.

"I just know. You are the one." Genesis pressed his forehead against hers before kissing her sweetly on the lips.

Lovelovelovelovelove

Ooh, love is juicy,
Juicy, and you see
I gotta have my bite, sir! –Don't Rain On My Parade (Glee Cast)

The first thing she learned about Genesis was that no one is allowed to harsh his mellow. Doing so will land you with a fireball to the face. Good thing it was Reno who did so first and not her.

Lovelovelovelovelove

I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face.
It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "Oh, it's you." –Escape (The Pina Colada Song) (Rupert Holmes)

I can't believe I let the Puppy talk me into going on this blind date. Genesis squinted through the rain, vaguely aware that the newspaper he was holding over his head was starting to give way to the rain. He scurried into the restaurant, desperate to escape the rain. "Reservation for Genesis Rhapsodos." I might as well treat the lady and myself to a nice dinner. The waiter led him to a secluded booth in the back. Sitting in the leather seat was his friend Cissnei, clad in a beautiful ebony gown and sipping a soda through a straw. "Well hello there, Love." I might actually have to thank the Puppy after this Genesis noted after Cissnei's face lit up.

Lovelovelovelovelove

Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl –I'm Not That Girl (Wicked Cast)

"Cissnei," Oh that voice… "You will lead the group through the slums, since you are familiar with the layout." Genesis smirked slightly, turning to address the rest of the group. Genesis…Do you realize how much I am attracted to you? Cissnei watched as he finished briefing the group of cadets and lower rank SOLDIERs. He could be the Prince in the fairytales, but I'm not the Princess he's going to live happily ever after with.

Lovelovelovelovelove

Well, here I must bid you all au revoir. But first, just to let you readers know if you haven't realized it already, most of these are AU. Hopefully you knew that without me saying. I would also like to give a shout-out to Lioneh, my only reviewer for this story so far -Thank you so much! Cloud, why don't you do the disclaimer?

Cloud: Ya'll know what I'm going to say. She doesn't own squat.

Until next time.

Love and Rockets,
