Chapter Nineteen
“Yeah, just put the bags in the bedroom. Through the door on the left.” Sanura heard Elena say; climbing out of the bath, she turned to reach for a towel, only to stare as the bathroom door opened.
“AH OH MY GOD THAT’S NOT THE BEDROOM!” The yelp came with the sound of falling bags, Reno moving to step back only to trip over his own feet and falling forward. Sanura yelped, moving to catch him - as she dropped the towel in the process, Reno tore himself away from her as though he had been burned, tearing out of the apartment with a face nearly as red as his hair.
“…What the fu-” Elena began, blinking at the mess near the bathroom, a very confused Sanura kneeling on the floor. “…Reno. Figures. Did he do anything?”
“No…I was trying to keep him from hitting the floor and he just…ran. …did I do something wrong?”
“…Sanura, you’re naked.”
“OH MY GOD!” The screech could be heard even three floors below, where Rude was laughing over Reno’s stuttering apologies. Sanura put her face, brilliantly red, into her hands, even as Elena chuckled and picked up the bags.
“Come on, Sanura.” Elena told her, chuckling as the girl picked up the towel to dry herself off, then followed after her. “Get some clothes on, the boys will be back soon.”
“…what?!”
“…you can face them, it was an accident.”
“Are you crazy?! Reno saw me NAKED!”
“…my sanity has been called into question many times. Not least when I was being disobeyed. Move it!”
“…yes ma’am.” Grumbling, Sanura dressed, and headed out to see Reno staring at the floor as though he was hoping it would swallow him. Upon her entrance, Rude cleared his throat.
“…Reno?”
“Er…right.” Scrambling to his feet, Reno bowed low. “I’m so sorry, Sanura. I thought she meant on her left not mine, so I opened the wrong door. Please forgive me.”
“…It’s okay…I should have locked the door.” Sanura managed, stepping to the couch to sit down. As the other seats were now occupied, Reno ended up sitting next to her, both shooting embarrassed glances to each other.
“So, Sanura will be living here with me for the time being - it being safer that way. We don’t know if Hojo will try to take her against orders, or if Sephiroth will truly leave her alone.” Elena informed the two men, Rude nodding slightly.
“Tseng hoped you would say that. He called a few minutes ago. No signs of Seraphina…Rufus is throwing a royal bitch fit over the entire situation, I could hear him yelling at underlings - and Tseng was standing outside the office with the door closed.”
“Poor guy…it’s gotta be hard, fallin’ in love with someone, having them finally awaken, then just disappear on you.” Reno murmured. “No wonder he’s throwing a fit.”
“…Reno. If that information leaves the Turks, we will not hesitate to murder you. The Boss doesn’t want anyone realizing his attachment to the girl, as far as they know, he’s throwing the fit because the girl managed to escape.” Elena snapped.
“…by the way, Sanura. …we need you to help us keep up the appearance that you are in effect a prisoner of the Turks - if anyone figured out otherwise…they could destroy the Boss.” Rude murmured.
“…What?” Still back on Reno’s comment, she stared at him. “Did you just say he’s in love with my sister? He can’t be. She loves Genesis.”
“…Genesis is gone, Sanura. …and even if he weren’t, I’d have to say if she dated him I’d strangle her - I didn’t see him by her side every night when she was in the hospital, comatose. The Boss stayed by her side all night when the others weren’t there.” Rude told her calmly, arms crossed over his chest. “…fact aside…Sera’s smart enough to know…it was over the moment he went the way he did…”
“…yeah, well…it looks like she could go that way now, too.” Sanura whispered, eyes filling with tears. “And if she does, it’ll be all my fault…”
“No it won’t!” Reno’s voice was firm, moving to slide an arm around her shoulders. “Sanura, she’s a grown woman. She will make her own choices for her own damn reasons! You kept her from joining with Sephiroth! Maybe she’s gone for now, but she’ll be safe as long as she’s hiding from the world!”
“…but I…drove her away…”
“Sanura…” Reno’s frown deepened, pulling her closer to hold her tight. He had grown close to the girl from reading her data in the ShinRa system, and by spending time with her while she recovered in the capsule not so long ago. He felt like he knew her. In some ways, he did know her - better even than Rude and Tseng.
“…I’m sorry.” She whispered, drawing away to pick up the hot chocolate Elena had gotten for her, taking a sip and sighing. “…it does help, huh?”
“…yes. You can go nap after you’ve finished that…”
“No…I want to go to the park.”
“…Reno and I will escort you. Elena, you should get back to headquarters.”
“Right.” She got to her feet, pausing to hand Sanura the key to the apartment. “Here. Lock the door when you leave, and if I’m not back before you, you’ll need to unlock it, too.”
“…thank you, Elena.”
“…you’re welcome. Take care of her, you two.”
“Finish your drink…Reno, let’s go get the car.”
“What?”
“Now, Reno.”
“No, hang on, I can come with you.” She had already downed the little hot chocolate she’d had left, and dashed into the kitchen to rinse her cup, then into the bedroom to grab her purse. They had picked up a phone for her, as well as a wallet and purse, while they were out - she threw everything needed into the small bag, then dashed back out to find them staring at her. “See? I didn‘t take long at all. Let’s go.”
“AH OH MY GOD THAT’S NOT THE BEDROOM!” The yelp came with the sound of falling bags, Reno moving to step back only to trip over his own feet and falling forward. Sanura yelped, moving to catch him - as she dropped the towel in the process, Reno tore himself away from her as though he had been burned, tearing out of the apartment with a face nearly as red as his hair.
