~~WARNING! This chapter contains some smut type scene. If you do not like it, do not read it. This is a yaoi fic after all, what did you expect? Also, this is my first ever (posted) bit of smut. I have little to no experience in writing such, so reviews are GREATLY appreciated and it will let me know what to change for future smut writings. Thank you and please enjoy!~CR
Reno leaned against the bathroom door and felt like he did the first time he noticed Tseng's lingering stare. It made his heart race and left him feeling breathless. 'Like a fucking swooning girl. Jenova in the fucking tank I'm pretty fucking sure the old man's straight. He did live with a woman for years.' Reno pushed the thoughts aside and climbed into the shower. However, no matter how much he pushed the thoughts aside, he couldn't stop his raging hard on. He loved being stare at like the sparkly new toy and not the tattered one that you've considered replacing.
He frowned and wrapped his hand around his at-the-ready member. It felt deliciously wrong to be jerking off in another man's house, but it felt so right at the same time. He rested his head against his arm on the tile shower wall and let the water cascade down his back while he gave into his desires. He rolled his hips into his hand and gave brisk strokes. He could almost feel the pilot's stubble against his neck, he could imagine the smoky taste of the man's cigarettes and the soft hint of tea. He stroked a little faster, praying that he would cum soon so he wouldn't keep the Captain waiting. He thought of Cid's sky blue eyes on him, watching him. He shifted his face so he could set his teeth against he back of his arm and stifled a moan as he came against the wall of the shower, allowing himself to bask in the glow of orgasm.
He looked down and smiled at the mess he had made. He thought briefly of leaving it there to see if Cid would scold him, but he washed those thoughts away with the milky substance on the wall. He finished quickly in the shower and dried off. Cid would probably wonder why he was taking so long. He sighed and slid into the sweat pants and T-shirt, cursing his lack of underwear. Maybe Rude was right about packing several pairs.
He stepped out into the kitchen, his bare feet making more racket than he really wanted. Cid leaned against the sink next to the drying tea kettle. Reno reached for his pack of cigarettes he had rolled up in the sleeve of his shirt. He opened the pack and heaved a sigh. He was down to his last cigarette. He sat heavily in the chair and slid the waiting cup of tea to him.
"Thanks for the tea."
"That yer last cig?" Cid said from around the filter of his.
The redhead nodded and took a long drink of the tea, his eyes lingering on the dining room window and the pouring sleet.
"Are those Newports?" Cid asked.
Reno nodded again as he tore his gaze from the window, "The best made."
"Naahhh, I like my Marlboro."
Reno shook his head and took a long deep breath of smoke. "The best ever is Newports, then Kemuri Ryuu, then maybe Marbs."
"What they fuck is Ken-whatever you just said?"
"Kemuri Ryuu is a Wutain tobacco. You smoke it from a pipe and usually it's used for ceremonies. However, I have found that the pipe is unnecessary and the smoke is better when shotgunned."
Cid frowned, "I only ever heard of shotgunning pot smoke and since Shinra put such strict regulations on pilots-"
Reno let out a bark of a laugh, "Yeah strict for non-Turk pilots. Fuck, I used to fly high in two senses of the term at the same time."
Cid shook his head, "That never really appealed to me."
Reno nodded, "In any event, the smoke is much better when it comes from someone else."
"You find that out from one of the Wutain secretaries?"
"No," Reno turned his head away from Cid, "Tseng showed me."
The two sat in silence for a moment, before Cid had the courage to break it, "So were you and Tseng an..aw fuck jus' forget-"
"Yes. We were an item." Cid gave Reno an odd look and Reno's eyes immediately narrowed, "Why? Do you have a problem with it?"
The sudden change in Reno's mood made Cid's hands fly up defensively, "No! No, I dun have any issues with you or what yer into. I jus' never woulda pegged you as gay."
"Well, that's good because I'm not. I just tend to believe that gender shouldn't matter in who or what you love or make love to. Although there should probably be some boundaries like with dead people and shit, but gender shouldn't enter into it."
Cid nodded as sat down across from Reno, "So why didn't you stay with Tseng in Wutai?"
"I told you, most places don't even want one Turk. Besides Wutai isn't exactly a tolerant place. Traditions and all that state that sex is to be between a man and a woman and only in order to have kids and all that shit."
"So are you two still together?"
"No. We haven't been for a while. After he woke up from being stabbed with masamune he told me that the great goddess Leviathan had come to him and saved him so he needed to follow her path and no longer lie with men." Reno let out a snort, "To which I said, good fucking luck, cause yer queerer than a three dollar bill."
Cid smiled sadly at Reno, he could see the pain in the man's eyes. He could see the love the red head had felt for the other man as clear as he could see that tattoos on the man's cheeks.
"But what about you old man? I've been prattling on about my love life, but what about you? You and Shera an item?"
"No. Shera and I have never been an item."
Reno exhaled his last bit of smoke through his nose and ground out the cigarette. "She not your type?"
"Nope. She ain't the type I look fer at all."
"Then what is yer type?"
"I like them dark haired, tall, and mysterious."
"So that bartender Tifa fits the bill?"
"Nah, she's spikey's."
"So you're a single heterosexual guy that traveled with the biggest set of tits I have ever seen and you didn't try to tap that?"
"Nope. I had my eyes set on a different dark haired beauty."
"Isn't Yuffie like twelve or something?"
"No you chuckle fuck! I had my eyes set on someone else."
Reno thought for a moment before finally smiling, "You like the Turk."
"Ex-Turk."
"Captain, there is no such thing as an Ex-Turk. You are a Turk until the day you die."
Cid frowned and took a sip of his tea. Why the hell did he tell Reno about Vincent? Why the fuck did Reno tell him about Tseng? He didn't even tell half of Avalanche about he and Vincent, what made him think to tell the redhead that sat before him.
"Honestly Captain, you never pinged on my radar either."
"I know and I intend to keep it that way if you catch my drift. You are one of three people that know
that information."
"I feel honored and you don't have to worry. Besides who would I tell?"
"I dunno. But you aren't going to tell anyone or I'll run yer ass through."
Reno smiled, "Most people don't really know about Tseng and I either. He was weird about they whole "being out and in a relationship" thing. Rude was the only one who knew and that was an accident. I'll keep your secret if you keep mine."
It was then that a bond was formed between the two. Each resolved to never speak of the others' secret to anyone else. A pact made between to former enemies, was a shaky pact, but a pact none the less.
