Excuses are at the bottom of the page. I apologise for this chapter being so short.

Rufus knew that this was going to come up at some point. So when Cissnei came up with a message from Tseng saying that they needed to talk, now, he merely waved her away and said that he'd come down later, when he had the time. Once she was gone he pulled up Tseng's timetable on his computer for a quick check before he went back to doing his work. An hour or so later Rude came knocking at his door with a note telling him that Tseng wanted to talk. He did the same thing that he had done with Cissnei and just waved him away.

An hour later there was another knock at his door and this time Tseng himself walked in. Not once did Rufus look up from his work as they both sat in a somewhat awkward silence for a few moments before Tseng finally decided to speak up. "Explain to me why you're so insistent on acting like a child and ignoring me."

"I'm not the one using my subordinates to summon my lover. In case you didn't know, I am the Vice President of the world's only electric company and Midgar's only military force. I don't have the time to cater to your every whim." Tseng could feel his eye twitch in irritation.

"You're aware of the fact that this won't be settled unless you talk to me. Or would you rather we keep on fighting over this? Look at me when I'm talking to you Rufus." Tseng was almost taken aback from the glare on his lovers face when he reached over Rufus' desk and yanked the Vice President's chin up. He almost immediately released him as if he had just been burnt.

"You know what the problem is. You're the one that's insistent that this weasel proves something to you when you're just going to make him a Turk anyway. You know he has the skills and the drive. Why do you need him to chase after you? Or do you have some kind of fetish for ferrets chasing after you?"

"They're entirely different animals Rufus…"

"You know what I meant."

"Look." Tseng breathed out exasperatedly, running a hand through his hair. "I don't know." There was an awkward silence between the two for a few seconds.

"What did you just say?" Rufus' voice was almost too calm.

"I don't know what I'm doing. I just…"

"Just get out Tseng." The Turk stared back at Rufus as if he couldn't believe what the Vice President was saying to him. "Get the fuck out!"

"I'm not leaving you like this Rufus." Tseng tried to reason.

"Fuck you if you're not going to get the fuck out of my office I'm calling security!" Rufus hit the speed dial on his phone and a there was the sound of ringing coming from Tseng's direction. The fox reached into his pocket and pulled out his PHS, dangling it in Rufus' face almost tauntingly. He could almost hear the last piece of Rufus' control snap as the spider slammed down his phone back down on the receiver and swept right past the Turk not even sparing him a glance.

"Where do you think you're going Rufus?" Tseng questioned as he made to follow him.

"Away from you, just stay the fuck away from me!" Rufus wrenched his door open and slammed it behind him, leaving Tseng to wonder what the hell just happened.


Ok so I actually got my new laptop a while ago but then when I got to typing I went… Wait… Tseng and Rufus aren't meant to break up! Then I had a chat with my beta and everything worked itself out… Kinda. I do have a better excuse it's a lot more depressing than that but I'm sure none of you want to know.

Anyways I have a question because now I'm in a total slump because I have a gazillion scenes I could possibly write up so the question is, which characters do you want to see more of? I promise to have a chapter out by Friday. (And by Friday I mean NZ Friday because I think the US is like a day behind?)

Also thanks for all the supportive PM's and reviews :)
