Cloud, Reno and Zack had a free day on the same day, so they decided to go out to a bar to let loose a bit. Cloud consented to come, and Sephiroth let them take Cloud to the slums on the condition that they not let Cloud drink, being a minor and all, and that they don't get wasted enough to not be able to defend themselves should the need arise.
They got to the bar early, and the SOLDIER and Turk immediately started hitting the alchohol harder than Sephiroth would have liked to see, but he wasn't there, so moot point. Cloud wasn't drinking though urged by the older men to try it. That wasn't what was ruining his night.
What was ruining his night was the arrogant, horny, newly promoted SOLDIER Third-Class that was currently a little too close to Cloud.
"Come on. We both know you want me," the Third-Class SOLDIER purred.
"Excuse me?" Cloud gasped. He liked, men, yes. This guy was handsome, yes. But someone with such an ego immediately irked Cloud.
"It's useless to play hard to get. I understand, I'm pretty overwhelming, and the thought of being with me leaves you star-struck, but I promise I'll try to ease you into it."
Cloud's cheeks were stained red. He could feel his friend's eyes on him, judging to see whether or not to interfere. The stupid newly promoted SOLDIER took Cloud's furious blush as arousal, when it just meant he was getting really angry and holding it in.
Cloud was shy, but not around idiots with an ego that was out of control. "Firstly, you disgust me. Secondly, you really disgust me. And lastly, if I could ever force myself to get within three feet of you, your ego would smother me. Did I mention your disgusting?"
The man had been badgering Cloud for about ten minutes now, so Zack took pity on him. "Dude, get lost. This is one cadet that doesn't care that you barely passed a SOLDIER exam."
The idiot didn't recognize Zack, and so he had no idea he was a First-Class. "No one asked you. If Blondy didn't like me, he'd leave, now wouldn't he?"
Zack and Reno put down their glasses and shared an angry look over the table when the drunk somehow managed to get closer to Cloud. They rose from their seats when Cloud flinched away from the man and looked down at his boots, prompting the man to lean forward and nip at the soft shell of the boy's ear.
Reno yanked the man upright by the collar and began shakeing him. Zack tugged Cloud out of his seat and began walking him to the door. Behind them, Reno was hissing at the pervert. In front of them, three large angry men blocked their path.
Cloud looked up at Zack's relaxed face with anxious eyes. Zack just flashed him a smile and turned to the man. "Hey there fellas. How are you doing?"
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Cloud came staggering in his apartment, supporting both Reno and Zack. Sephiroth leapt up from his desk and helped them to the desk, thinking someone had attacked them, hating Shinra enough to take it out on the employees. He glanced to Cloud to find his pretty pale skin unmarred. Sephiroth ordered himself to forget Cloud many times but he never listened to himself. The boy was too beautiful.
Zack's head lolled back and he opened a swollen eye, just barely. "I had my first bar fight, Seph. And I didn't take your advise. I was wasted."
He sensed there was more to the story, seeing as how Cloud flinched.
"You know what the fight was about, yo?" Reno said, stirring a bit, but not moving to stem the blood flowing out of his nose.
"It was over little Cloudy's virtue!" Zack exclaimed. "See, it makes you feel better doesn't it? We had a reason for that drunken brawl!"
Cloud, in contrast to Zack's drunken cheer, covered his face with his hands, looking embarrased and hurt.
Sephiroth privately cheered on the cause the men fought for. But now he needed to speak with Cloud. He was attractive, and couldn't very well stay a virgin forever, though Sephiroth hated to admit it.
Leaving Zack and Reno to pass out on his study couch, he drew Cloud through the doors and closed them, knowing the others were too drunk to hear them. "Cloud..."
"I didn't ask them to fight for me, I swear," he whimpered.
Sephiroth threw caution to the wind for a moment. He carefully crushed the boy to his chest. "I didn't think you did," he said in the blond's ear.
Cloud stiffened for a moment, before shyly returning the hug. "Thank you... For believing in me..."
Sephiroth carefully let go, as if Cloud could break any moment, and looked him in the eye, mentally preparing himself for what came next. "Cloud you are an attractive young man with a sweet temperment and a soft heart. There will be people that want to take advantage of that."
Cloud turned faintly pink, guessing where this was going.
"If anyone tries," Sephiroth plowed on. "Inform Zack, Reno, or myself. We will help you, and we will not blame you. You are strong and intellegent, but no match for a mako inhanced person."
Cloud was silent, but he was getting pinker.
Sephiroth hesitated, unsure how to go on. He was sure that the next part would make Cloud run for his own rooms and hide under the covers, as shy as he was. The General would be as gentle as he could be. So he led Cloud to the kitchen and sat him down, one stern glance ensuring her wouldn't leave. "This might take a while. Is there anything you need?"
Cloud mutely shook his head, fiddling with his pale blue shirt, or his black jeans. Earlier, Sephiroth had gone through an internal battle, whether or not to let Cloud out looking so... adorible.
Sephiroth took the seat across the counter from Cloud. He leaned forward, resting his head on his propped up arms. "Cloud... I know that you grew up with no father, or father figure..." Sephiroth internally squirmed. "But you should know some things that usually a father would tell his son."
Cloud's face burned brighter. He knew where Sephiroth was going with this now.
"What do you know of sex?" Sephiroth asked.
Cloud's face now was almost pure red. He was trapped having a sex talk with Sephiroth of all people. He was curious about it, sure. His mother told him how a woman gets pregnant, but that was all. He also heard what the boys in his dorms said they had done with women.
Cloud let out the breath he started holding when Sephiroth asked the question. "My mother told me how girls get pregnant," he muttered, looking at the tables. "And the boys in my old dorms talked about things they did with girls but..." he wrapped his arms around himself, not believing he was about to confide in the SOLDIER. "I didn't understand what they meant."
Sephiroth tried to calm himself. He hoped someone had explained sex to the blond, but no such luck. Then he considered, and realized if Cloud had sex explained to him, the teacher wouldn't be sitting him down and doing it. His clasped hands tightened. The teacher would probably be showing Cloud first hand how hard someone could go on their partner during sex.
He forced himself to focus, look into the embarrased, yet beautiful and innocent blue eyes that had only just gathered up the courage to look at the only man he really trusted. Don't blow this, he warned himself.
"Cloud, have you had a wet dream before?"
"A what?"
Sephiroth wanted very badly to run from this conversation, to find some porn for the blond to watch instead of being informed by him.
"A dream that sexually pleased you enough to cause you to have an erection and eventually ejaculate."
The pretty blue eyes held no comprehension in their depths. Sephiroth, though disappointed, thought his cute little chocobo was adoribly innocent.
"What has your mother told you?" he was forced to ask.
"A man puts his," he shyly stopped and vaguely indicated his lap. "Into a woman and puts his sperm into her. Nine months later a baby is born."
"Sex isn't only between a man and a woman. There are people that prefer their own gender, and you seem to attract these types of men."
Cloud crossed his arms on the counter and rested his spikey head on them, looking up with curiousity.
I wonder... Sephiroth took a chance. "Cloud, which gender are you attracted to?" When he recieved no answer but Cloud averting his eyes, he continued. "Do you think I would think less of you for being gay, Cloud?"
The cadet buried his head in his arms. But his eyes peeked out at Sephiroth's next statement.
"If it's any consolation, I myself am bisexual," he offered. Cloud looked up hopefully. Sephiroth gave him a smile. "Let me get back to my previous point. Have you ever had a dream where it was sexually pleasing? Enough for your penis to become hard, then a milky white liquid comes out?"
Cloud nodded, his blush fading, overcome by the need to learn. He was naturally curious in all areas.
"When your penis becomes hard, that is called an erection. When the liquid comes out, it is called an ejaculation. The white stuff is semen, which contains sperm," Sephiroth was getting more comfortable now that he was sure Cloud didn't want to know about women.
"The other cadets talked about other things," Cloud said hesitantly.
"Like what?" Sephiroth was ready for this. He could do this. Maybe.
"They said things like 'blowjobs, handjobs, rimming, suck off,' and," Cloud buried his chin in his arms. "'Pop their cherry.'"
Sephiroth was wrong. He was so not ready for this. He should have told Zack to talk to the boy.
"A blowjob is when a person put's their partner's penis into their mouth and licks and sucks until the man comes, ejaculates. A handjob is when a person uses their hands to make a man come. Rimming is when a person inserts their tongue into their partner's anus. To suck someone off is the same thing as a blowjob."
Cloud took a moment to absorb what was said, then Sephiroth continued.
"To pop someone's cherry means that they took that person's viginity."
"Oh," Cloud turned red again. "That's what that means."
"Someone's said it in regards to you," Sephiroth guessed.
Cloud nodded, he was acting shy again. Sephiroth fought the urge to smooth his hair, just as something to do with his hands. Another question came to Cloud. "Where does the semen go? When a man comes?"
"If the man is getting a blowjob, down his partner's throat. A handjob, over his partner's hand. In sex, inside his partner."
"How does sex work between men?"
"It ends with the dominant male's penis inside the submissive male's anus. There is a spot inside that, it pressed, causes great pleasure to the submissive."
Cloud looked thoughtful, so Sephiroth decided now was the time to warn him about the dangers of sex. "There are some diseases that can be transmitted through sex, which is why condoms are used. Condoms are plastic covers for a man's penis. When having sex with a man, a kind of lubricant is used for the comfort of the submissive partner. If there is none used, the dominant could hurt the submissive very, very badly."
Some measure of worry entered the small blond's expression. Sephiroth was quick to assure him. "Do not worry, if you find a proper lover, he should be willing to help you through it. Everyone's first time is awkward."
Cloud hummed a little in acknowledgement, then thought of yet another awkward question. "What's bondage?"
Sephiroth couldn't believe his luck. Unable to hold it back, he covered his face with his hand. When he calmed himself, he let down his hand. anxious blue eyes gazed dolefully up at him. The General stood and went to Cloud's side, and crouched down next to the chair. "Cloud, I need you to know that any question you have should be asked, to me if no one else."
No good. Cloud still looked at his lap, still sad.
Sephiroth took his seat again. "In a sexual relationship, sometimes lovers become bored so they begin using sex toys or playing sex games. It would depend on who your with. Bondage is simply when a partner is tied up."
Cloud timidly looked up, so shy and vulnerable. He had another question, Sephiroth was sure of it.
"Yes?"
"What's 'masterbation?'"
What I do every morning in my bathroom, thinking of you Sephiroth thought. "It's when a person sexually pleases themselves with their hands."
Cloud considered this and continued with his unknowingly awkward questions.
