off his fingertip and made some soft, contented little sound.
“I still can’t believe I’m seein’ this.”style='mso-spacerun:yes'> He told Seifer, licking at a drop of batter
on his wrist. “Seifer Almasy, culinary
genius. Who knew?”
Seifer draped a dish towel over his shoulder and elbowed
aside to reach for a plate in the cabinet.
“Don’t be too impressed, Kinneas.
This is about the only thing I know how to make.”
and hopped up onto the counter, happily ignoring the look Seifer shot him.style='mso-spacerun:yes'> “Hell, if I’d known breakfast was part of the
deal, I’d have spent the night with you a long time ago.”
Seifer gave him an odd look and turned the pancakes before
laying the spatula down on the stove. He
crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the counter, just looking at
first thing in the morning. He had his
hair pulled back in a loose ponytail and was clad only in a pair of sweatpants
and an oversized tanktop. Seifer felt
the hunger stir again – and this time it had absolutely nothing to do with
breakfast.
“Is that my only lure,

He gestured to Seifer.
“Come here.”
Seifer hesitated only a moment before moving closer, taking
proffered hand and settling between his thighs.
It was all too easy to slide his arms around the cowboy’s waist and pull
him to the edge of the counter. He
always smelled so good and Seifer had not been surprised to discover that he
tasted just as sweet.

legs. “How much of last night do you
remember?”

arousing to Seifer.
He rubbed strands of caramel colored hair between his
fingers and sighed at the sugary scent of his hair.style='mso-spacerun:yes'> Images of
naked and sprawled in Seifer’s bed, came unbidden to him.style='mso-spacerun:yes'> Random flashes of what it had felt like to
discover the texture of the cowboy’s skin and how he’d been a perfect weight in
Seifer’s lap, nuzzling and kissing and giving Seifer so much more than what
he’d bargained for.
“Everything.” Seifer
admitted. “I remember everything.”
Seifer’s head and kissed him softly, still thrilled to realize that the
Sorceress’ Knight had a sweet, romantic side.
That discovery had been like a knife in
heart – he’d warned himself way before last night not to allow himself to feel
too much for Seifer Almasy. Even if his
temperament, and even his sanity, hadn’t been enough to warn him away, the fact
that he was over the moon for Squall Leonhart and always would be should have
been.
Funny thing was,

powerful body. “I didn’t expect to like
you this much.” He admitted.

only natural that they would want to share that interest to the fullest

“Seifer?” He
breathed, his fingers curling over Seifer’s broad shoulders.style='mso-spacerun:yes'> Seifer leaned into

“Mm?”
The pancakes were beginning to burn, faint tendrils of smoke
rising from the skillet to twine about the two of them in unnoticed
reminder.
“Do you love him still?”
Spoken so haltingly, but without regret.
It was something he needed to hear.
Seifer gripped

Seifer reached between them and thumbed one of
perfect, tempting nipples, just peeking out of his shirt. “Yes.style='mso-spacerun:yes'> You gonna fight me for him?”

short blonde strands. “No.”style='mso-spacerun:yes'> He panted, rocking his hips forward in
blatant need.
Seifer took the opportunity to avail himself of a few more

Seifer lifted
