Reflections

He sat on his bar stool watching the couple in the booth from afar. Cursing to himself as the blond leaned over and tenderly ran his hand through his lovers long red hair before leaning in for a kiss. Their lips brushed briefly, passion shone in their eyes.

The man took another sip from his glass hoping he hadn’t been spotted. The last think he wanted was for them to think he was spying on them, He knew just what they’d be thinking if they saw him here. They’d think he couldn’t let go of the past.

You see, not so long ago, it had been him running his fingers through those flame red locks.
Then the passion had been electrifying, tender didn’t get a look in, not that he’d complained. It was all about the sex where he was concerned. Dirty, fucking filthy sex and for him it had been truly amazing but his lover had wanted more, he’d wanted commitment and the cloaked figure wasn’t able to give that, and so they’d parted company.


“ You want another drink Yo” ,Reno whispered to his young mate “ or shall we head out of here “

“Lets have one for the road then head back to your place, the nights young, and it’s not like I have to be up for work in the morning, I’m giving myself the day off “ smirked Cloud, his blue eyes shining with lust. Love & lust these two shared the best of both worlds.

Vincent looked over towards the booth again. Maybe it was to late for regrets, maybe he should have said something sooner, maybe he still could, but that would only complicate matters. He could see Reno loved Cloud now. Vincent knew he had to accept this, even though it was cutting him up on the inside to see them together, even though it hurt like hell. He knew he had to move on, and that’s why he was seated on the bar stool in Seventh Heaven. Not spying on the lover he once had, no, today he was meeting with a new lover,actually once again love didn’t really come into it,no, his new acquaintance was more of a fuck buddy. Although now he’d seen Reno in the bar he was unsure he could go through with it.

------------------------------------------------------


Fuck Buddy summed it up perfectly, Vincent still wasn’t able to commit to a relationship, it suited him perfectly just to have a no strings attached kind of relationship. His buddy rang, told him where to meet him, he turned up they’d have a drink or two, they’d fuck, life was sweet. Well it was until he’d walked into the bar and had seen Reno and Cloud all loved up. Now having sex was the last thing on his mind. The only thing he could think of now was how good he and Reno had been together.

---------------------------------------------------------

Ruffus swaggers into the joint like he owns the place, dressed from head to toe in white linen, an air of Grace about him, he oozes sex appeal. Tifa looks up from the end of the bar where she’s seated on a spare stool, it’s quiet in the bar tonight being midweek.

“I don’t want no trouble” she mouths as she sees him head over towards Vincent sat at the opposite end of the bar.

“ you’ll get non from me lady, I’m just meeting a friend” he winks, “ for a few good time drinks”

Tifa knows not to ask any questions when it comes to her customers private lives, what they get up to is their business, and she’d rather not know. Although she has an idea, Ruffus likes to mix Shinra business with pleasure according to the rumours going round. Vincent must be the business deal for this month, she thinks to herself smiling. They certainly make a striking couple. Ruffus dressed all in white, silver hair held back from his face with a matching bandana, just a few strands falling across his left eye. Vincent was dressed in, well unbeknown to anyone but himself he only had on his long red cape, below it he was starkers apart from a pair of black lacy panties. A gift from Ruffus. They had reached him by special delivery with a small note asking him to wear them tonight earlier that morning.

Tifa looked up, “ ok, well enjoy your drinks boys, just shout if you want a refill”.

------------------------------------------------------


Vincent didn’t know wether to laugh or cry when he saw Ruffus chatting at the bar with Tifa. For a man who didn’t do feelings he was feeling pretty fucked up at the moment, a mixture of strange emotions, he never knew he was capable of feeling rushing through his body, like the blood through his veins.

Before entering the bar he’d been so psyched up for this rendezvous, I mean he must have been, it’s not every day you enter a bar dressed how he was. He was so excited, and now having seen his ex he was on a downer. Knocking back his drink, he decided to head to the toilet, alcohol made him piss for America. “I’ll be right back “ he said, not knowing if he spoke the truth or not. He wasn’t really a big drinker, and he’d had a fair few drinks whilst he waited, it was his way of coping with the situation.

----------------------------------------------------

Vincent stood, he swayed slightly, as he headed for the bathroom, not that he realised, just others watching the scene could see. He lay his hand on a passing table to steady himself, looking up he saw Reno stir at him, Cloud noticed him too and he didn’t look best happy. Vincent feeling confident due to the alchol saluted them both before staggering once more heading for the door marked mens room.


Cloud swore under his breath, Reno mumble he’d be back in a mo Yo,
Both had seen Vincent’s scantily clad body when the cloak had gaped open as he’d lost his footing tripping slightly, as he stumbled to correct his footing. Cloud trusted Reno, but he didn’t trust Vincent. He’d heard all about his partners ex lover and how their relationship had ended, knew his rival wasn’t over his boyfriend and this caused him immense jealousy. Reno ment everything to him and he was worried all it would take was for his ex lover to say he was sorry, he not felt able to commit and he’d lose him forever. Even though he thought he knew Reno well, it was obvious due to his thinking he didn’t know him quite as well as he thought, cos Reno was well and truely over Vincent. Cloud was everything he needed and more. With Cloud he got the commitment he craved, but he also got the fantastic sex too.
Reno was just worried for an old friend,it was so out of character for him, even though they were no longer togehter, you didn’t just lose feelings, Reno still cared for his friend, in a way he always would, it just wasn’t the same way he felt about Cloud. With Cloud it really was special, something he wanted to hold onto forever.


------------------------------------

Leaning over tenderly kissing his lover, running his hand up his thigh so he gently brushed his hand over his hardening cock, Reno whispered he’d be back. “ I’m just going to check he’s ok” Cloud blushed, he still got embarrassed with public shows of affection. even though no one else saw what Reno had done, it was just the thought of his touch, it made him remember his hands on his bare naked flesh earlier that morning, made him think of things to come later that night. Then it made him think of those same hands trailing over the tall, lean snipers body. Cursing again his looked towards the door Reno had headed for.


----------------------------------------------

Ruffus had sat and witnessed what had just gone on, he had no idea of what words had passed their lips but he could see Cloud had a face like thunder, saw Reno head after his own latest conquest, and he didn’t like it. Vincent was his now, his little play thing, his tension reliever, his fuck buddy. He knew exactly what Vincent had on, knew exactly how he felt about Reno, knew exactly how he himself felt about Vincent and he wasn’t about to let him go. Downing his drink he too headed for the hallway, towards the door the other two men had left by.


----------------------------------------


“ You ok Yo” Reno had his hand on Vincents shoulder as ruffus entered the room.
“He’s fine Turk, now get your hands off of him and get that fucking cute ass of yours back in there before that boyfriend of yours starts crying.” Ruffus slaps reno’s arse then pushes Vincent up against the wall, kissing him hungrily, skilful hands going straight for his dick. “Feels like that loaded gun of yours is just about ready to go off” Ruffus says simperingly, grabbing him by the hand and heading out the door. “ We’re leaving” Vincent just nods as he allows himself to be lead away. Ruffus is obviously the one in charge and Vincent doesn’t seem to mind.

As they pass by Reno’s table Ruffus comes to a stop. “You still carry that bottle of lube in your jacket pocket Ginger.”

“Sure do, you wanna borrow it boss” Smirks Reno.

Both Cloud and Vincent know not to ask questions, they just nod politely in each others direction as both couples exit the bar.
