Twisted Around

"Mated."

Cloud repeated the word once more. "Mated."

Vincent furrowed his eyebrows. "Yes, Cloud."

"Mated..." Cloud looked at him. "We're...married?"

"Technically."

Cloud shook his head and turned away. "As in, wake-up-in-the-morning-to-see-you-spouse married?"

"Well, you already woke up to me, but yes."

"Holy Gaia."

Cloud walked around the room in slow, small circles. "Married..."

/Great going Chaos./

/He'll get used to it./

/.../

/Besides, it's not he can leave. Even if he does, we will be able to find him now./

Cloud looked back to Vincent. "Chaos, listen to me when I say that if you inhabited anyone else, I'd be pissed right now."

/Then 'tis a good day to live in Valentine./ Chaos laughed.

Cloud shook his head again. "Mated..."

"Having trouble getting your mind around that?"

"Hello, Chaos."

Cloud didn't need to turn to know that Chaos now stood behind him. "I just... am surprised."

"Why is that?"

Cloud laughed. "You can stand there and ask why? Tell me, when did you decide to make me your personal fuck-toy?"

Chaos growled. "It is not quite like that, Clo-"

"Oh, really? It seems that way to me."

"Things are not always as they seem."

"Obviously."

Cloud looked at Chaos. "Do you realize that you- never mind."

"What is it?"

"Nothing."

"I would appreciate it if you finished your thoughts."

"It is just... interesting. My position, I mean."

Chaos smirked. "You do understand that your... dating... is over now?"

Cloud wanted to laugh. "I didn't date as it was."

"That is true- until Valentine."

"Fine. Yes, until Vincent."

Chaos looked evenly at Cloud. "While the mating is different, the night after is the same."

Cloud froze at that, the smile slipping from his face. "...Then tell me, it is me and...?"

"Both of us, of course."

"Both... how..?"

Chaos smirked. "It is you and me, Cloud, first."

"No."

"...?"

Cloud said quietly. "Chaos, I can't do this."

"What?"

"you want me to... have sex with you, and then Vincent?"

"That would be tradition."

"Oh, Gaia..."

Cloud collapsed onto the bed, his feet deciding not to hold his legs anymore.

"Chaos, I do hope you understand..."

"Not at all, Cloud."

Cloud glared at the demon. "I can't."

"I still don't understand."

Cloud said. "Do I have to spell it out for you?"

"I-" Chaos tried to begin.

"Alright." Cloud breathed. "Chaos, I refuse to have sex with my daily rapist."
