Sephiroth Gives Cloud a Towel to Dry Off

Sephirothgives Cloud a towel to dry off.

Cloud Strifewraps the towel around himself and yawns.

Sephiroth says, "Zack wants you to drown, I think I'm going to have to hurt him."

Cloud Strife says, "Oh he's just mad cuz I hog the bathroom."

Cloud Strifeblushes a little.

Sephiroth says, "I've got a hot tub in my room. Want to use that instead?"

Cloud Strife says, "Umm... "

Sephiroth . o O ( please?? Come to me Cloud... )

Sephiroth says, "it's ok, I'm just offering cause I don't want Zack to drown you."

Cloud Strife says, "He wouldn’t drown me.... on purpose."

Sephiroth says, "then is that a no?"

Cloud Strife says, "Lemme grab my robe.. and I'll come."

Sephiroth says, "ok."

Sephirothsmiles pleasantly.

Cloud Strifegoes to his room and grabs his robe... which is sky blue and has little white clouds on it.

Sephirothsmiles at Cloud when he returns and leads him to his room.

Cloud Strife says, "This is one of Zack's little gifts... he said it was perfect for me... "

Sephiroth says, "It's very cute. He gives you gifts?"

Sephiroth . o O ( shit, does Zack want him? )

Cloud Strife says, "Yeah.... "

Sephiroth says, "why?"

Cloud Strife says, "Not sure… Most of them are stuff that he just sees.... and buys for me... he has an innate ability to get things that I like."

Sephiroth says, "oh."

Sephirothfrowns a little.

Cloud Strife says, "Although I wouldn’t wear this robe in any public area... "

Cloud Strifesmirks.

Sephiroth says, "why not?"

Cloud Strife says, "Well... its a little.. happy looking for a person like myself "

Sephiroth says, "You should be happy."

Sephirothshows him into his nice room.

Cloud Strife says, "Oh.. I am... I think..."

Cloud Strifelooks around.

Cloud Strife says, "No fair... your room is bigger."

Sephiroth says, "Well, my hot tub is in the other room."

Sephirothsmiles.

Sephiroth says, "sorry about that."

Cloud Strife says, "Its okay..."

Sephirothpoints to the room with the hot tub.

Sephiroth says, "You are welcome to the tub."

Cloud Strife says, "I wish I had a hot tub... "

Sephiroth says, "You can use mine."

Cloud Strifegoes into the room with the hot tub and looks at it.

Cloud Strife says, "The officers have all the luck."

Sephirothlies out on his bed and looks at the ceiling.

Sephiroth . o O ( I can't believe he's in my room... )

Cloud Strifeslips out of his robe and into the hot tub ... sighing softly.

Sephirothlistens to Cloud in the other room.

Sephiroth . o O ( oh how I want him, how do I win him? )

Sephirothgets up and goes off to his closet to change from his standard black to something more casual and light green... tying his long hair back.

Cloud Strifecloses his eyes and relaxes.

Sephirothheads over to the kitchenette and starts to cook.

Cloud Strife says, "Its so nice.. to not have Zack yelling at me to get out of the tub... "

Sephirothsmiles as the smell of the food he is cooking starts to fill his living quarters.

Cloud Strifesniffs the air.

Cloud Strife says, "Something smells good..."

Sephirothwhistles a little, a beautiful and enchanting tune as he continues his cooking.

Cloud Strife says, "Oh he's cooking his dinner... and I gotta suffer with these wonderful smells..."

Sephiroth says, "hey Cloud, I hope you're hungry. I'm making food for you too here."

Cloud Strifeclimbs out of the tub and towels off... then slips back into his robe.

Cloud Strife says, "Really? Thanks... I usually gotta eat ‘what is that’ every night"

Sephiroth says, "It's ok Cloud."

Sephirothfinishes his cooking and dishes it out on two plates.

Cloud Strife says, "You shouldn’t have gone to the trouble."

Sephiroth says, "No trouble at all. Come in here and we can eat."

Sephirothsets the food down on the table.

Cloud Strifegoes to Sephiroth... and sees that he's not dressed at all like himself.

Cloud Strife says, "Wow... you actually have other clothes?"

Sephirothsits down.

Sephiroth says, "yes I do."

Cloud Strifesits down as well.

Sephirothhands him his plate.

Sephiroth says, "Enjoy."

Cloud Strife says, "You’re so multitalented."

Sephiroth says, "thank you."

Sephirothstarts to eat.

Cloud Strifestarts to eat as well... savoring the taste of real food.

Sephiroth says, "Do you like it?"

Cloud Strife says, "Yes its .. exquisite… I don’t think I could expect less from you.... though... you’re so perfect."

Sephirothsmiles and continues to eat.

Sephiroth says, "perfect?"

Cloud Strife says, "Yes..."

Sephiroth says, "how so?"

Cloud Strife says, "You’ve got looks... talent... everything a guy could want... to have for himself."

Sephiroth says, "Well, except for someone special to share it with."

Sephirothfinishes his food and looks at Cloud from across the table.

Cloud Strife says, "You have plenty of girls following you around Sephiroth..."

Sephirothsighs.

Cloud Strife says, "It surprises me you never date."

Sephiroth says, "I know that..."

Sephirothlowers his eyes a second.

Sephiroth says, "I'm not interested in them at all."

Cloud Strife says, "Oh?"

Sephirothnods then leans back.

Cloud Strife says, "I'd die to have people following me around like that... they ignore me."

Sephiroth says, "I don't ignore you... nor does Zack it seems."

Cloud Strife says, "Zack... he's real nice."

Sephiroth says, "but he wants to let you drown."

Cloud Strife says, "I think he just says that."

Sephiroth says, "Still..."

Sephirothsighs and places his hand on the table.

Sephiroth . o O ( Zack wants him... I want him... but what does he want? )

Cloud Strife says, "He buys me stuff all the time... spoils me... I don’t know what to think of him."

Sephiroth says, "I do. Well, do you like him at all?"

Cloud Strife says, "He's nice..."

Sephiroth says, "how nice?"

Cloud Strife says, "Well... I certainly think he could do better than me."

Sephiroth says, "Why do you say that?"

Cloud Strife says, "Because… I’m not impressive or anything."

Sephiroth says, "Why do you need to be impressive?"

Sephiroth . o O ( you impress me enough right here. You seem wonderful. )

Cloud Strife says, "I dunno... I just am not."

Sephiroth says, "well, don't think badly of yourself. You are fine as you are."

Sephirothsmiles a little as he stands up to gather the empty plates.

Cloud Strife says, "You think so."

Cloud Strifesighs.

Sephiroth says, "What's wrong?"

Cloud Strife says, "Oh nothin."

Sephirothbrings the plates over to the sink.

Sephiroth says, "You can tell me what's on your mind."

Cloud Strife . o O ( He's too perfect for me.. he deserves better... I don’t really deserve anyone.)

Sephirothwalks back over to Cloud.

Sephiroth says, "Are you alright?"

Cloud Strife says, "yeah... I’m fine."

Sephirothsmiles and sits down across from him.

Sephirothsighs and clears the dishes.

Sephiroth says, "Cloud...."

Cloud Strife says, "hmm?"

Sephirothsighs and shakes his head as he washes the dishes.

Sephiroth says, "Never mind."

Sephiroth . o O ( I'd love to have him as my own.. but he doesn't seem to want me just cause I'm.. perfect.)

Cloud Strife says, "I should be getting back to my room... to make sure Zack hasn’t stolen any of my stuff."

Sephiroth says, "If you wish.... but will you come back and see me tomorrow night?"

Cloud Strife says, "Sure."

Sephirothturns back and smiles slightly.

Cloud Strife says, "Gonna cook again?"

Sephiroth says, "yes."

Sephirothsmiles.

Cloud Strife says, "I’m there."

Sephiroth says, "and you can use my hot tub again too."

Cloud Strifegrins.

Cloud Strife says, "Double there."

Sephirothnods and waves to him as he leaves.

Sephiroth says, "good night Cloud."

Cloud Strifegoes back to his room and Finds Zack already passed out... but on his bed.... so he has to sleep in Zack's bed.

Sephirothgets everything ready, glad Cloud agreed to come back.

Cloud Strifespends his next day training... but thinks about when he can get a good meal and a nice relaxing soak.

Sephirothalso spends time training, and making sure everything is perfect for the next night.

Cloud Strifeknocks on Sephiroth's door... carrying his bathrobe and a towel.

Sephirothsmiles and opens it, still in causal clothing. The smell off food drifts to Cloud.

Sephiroth says, "Ah, you came."

Cloud Strife says, "Why would I miss out on your cooking?"

Sephiroth says, "don't know. I doubt anyone would but it's a rarity that I award them such a thing."

Cloud Strife says, "Oh so Im damned lucky?"

Sephiroth says, "well... let's say I think I want to spoil you."

Sephirothputs the food on the table and smiles.

Cloud Strifesets his things down and smiles.

Cloud Strife says, "Everyone wants to spoil me... even Zack."

Sephirothsits down and pulls the chair out for Cloud.

Sephiroth says, "Do you enjoy it?"

Cloud Strife says, "I suppose... but I feel guilty... cuz I can’t repay."

Sephiroth says, "Your Company is good enough."

Sephirothsmiles and starts to eat.

Cloud Strifestarts eating as well... mmming when he tastes what Seph cooked.

Sephirothsmiles when he hears the approval.

Sephiroth says, "I suppose I'll just have to try and out do Zack."

Cloud Strife says, "You already have."

Sephirothsmiles.

Sephiroth says, "I have?"

Cloud Strife says, "yea. The way to my heart is through my stomach."

Sephiroth says, "not buying you little things like Zack does?"

Cloud Strife says, "It’s sweet when he does that."

Cloud Strifeshows Seph the earring Zack made him get.

Sephiroth says, "yeah, you told me."

Sephirothsmiles softly.

Sephiroth says, "you like earrings?"

Cloud Strife says, "I think it’s nice."

Sephiroth says, "I do too."

Cloud Strifestretches languidly.

Sephiroth says, "You still think I'm too good for you?"

Cloud Strife says, "I ... dunno. Are you?"

Sephiroth says, "I don't think I am."

Sephirothlooks at himself, then back at Cloud with a smile.

Cloud Strife says, "You’re pretty... and you have quite a fan club."

Sephiroth says, "but most of my fan club doesn't interest me, unless you are not a member and then none of my fan club does."

Cloud Strife says, "I’ve been a member for some time."

Sephiroth says, "and you have your own fan club. Any of them interest you perhaps?"

Cloud Strife says, "Its only two people... and... I don’t know... if I say yes to one... the other'll be upset."

Sephiroth says, "I know... but better make yourself happy. Who ever you choose the other will get over it some how and move on."

Cloud Strife says, "or drown me in the bath tub."

Sephirothchuckles.

Sephiroth says, "I'd never let Zack do that to you."

Cloud Strifeleans back in his chair and frowns.

Sephiroth says, "you ok?"

Cloud Strife says, "Yeah... I find myself at a point where Im not sure where to go."

Sephiroth says, "Then study the path for a while before choosing."

Cloud Strife says, "What does each path have to offer..... I wish there were two of me."

Sephiroth says, "Both paths probably offer their own happiness and despair. I'm no expert at this."

Cloud Strife says, "I want to walk with you... but... I’m not sure."

Sephiroth says, "If that's truly what you want or what Zack might do?"

Cloud Strife says, "You.... seem to be so refined... you wouldn’t think of hurting me... but Zack... he can be rough."

Sephiroth says, "I know... but I can protect you from Zack if you want."

Cloud Strife says, "He wouldn’t hurt me knowingly."

Sephiroth says, "What would he do then?"

Cloud Strife says, "Just I don’t want to hurt him."

Sephiroth says, "I understand... but what about yourself?"

Cloud Strife says, "I’m not sure. I wish this were easier."

Sephiroth says, "That's why you must figure out what you want."

Sephirothnods.

Sephiroth says, "but nothing ever is."

Cloud Strifestretches lazily.

Sephiroth says, "Want to use my hot tub again?"

Cloud Strife says, "Sure."

Sephirothwalks into the next room and starts the hot tub up.

Cloud Strifepicks up his robe and towel and follows Sephiroth.

Sephiroth says, "there you are. I'll be in the next room if you need anything."

Sephirothsmiles at Cloud, gently touching his shoulder as he walks by him out the room.

Cloud Strifestrips out of his clothing and sinks into the hot bubbling water with a soft sigh.

Sephirothwould love to watch Cloud bath but knows it's best to give him privacy as he grabs a book and sits down on his chair.

Cloud Strifeleans back in the tub and relaxes... thinking about how with Sephiroth he'd probably get a good dinner and hot bath like this every night.

Sephirothreads his book, glancing up from time to time.

Cloud Strifecomes out of the bathroom a while later... dressed in his robe and carrying his clothing.

Sephirothsmiles up at Cloud as he sets his book aside.

Sephiroth says, "feeling better?"

Cloud Strife says, "a lot."

Sephirothsmiles at Cloud.

Sephiroth says, "so, come to a choice at all or still thinking?"

Cloud Strifewalks over to Sephiroth and sits down in his lap.

Sephirothis momentarily surprised but smiles at the welcome sitting.

Cloud Strifeputs his head on Seph's chest and closes his eyes.

Sephiroth says, "you... want me then?"

Cloud Strife says, "If you'll have me."

Sephiroth says, "Yes Cloud, I'll have you."

Cloud Strifeloops his arms around Sephiroth and relaxes fully.... sighing softly.

Sephirothsmiles down at Cloud in his lap and slowly starts to stroke his hair.

Cloud Strifetingles as Sephiroth does this.

Sephiroth says, "Feel good Cloud?"

Cloud Strife says, "Very."

Sephirothsmiles at him.

Sephiroth says, "would it be alright... if I kissed you?"

Cloud Strifenods.

Sephirothleans down and kisses Cloud softly.

Cloud Strifeclutches at Sephiroth's shirt as he is kissed.

Sephirothmouths his lips a little, enjoying his taste.

Cloud Strifeis ashamed with himself because he is getting aroused from such simple contact.

Sephirothfeels Cloud's hardening cock through the fabric of the boy's robe and his own pants on his thigh.

Cloud Strifeblushes.

Sephirothsmiles softly and strokes his cheek.

Cloud Strife says, "I’m sorry."

Sephiroth says, "sorry?"

Cloud Strifeangles himself so he's not poking Sephiroth.

Sephirothsmiles and strokes a hand through Cloud's spikey hair.

Sephiroth says, "You didn't need to move."

Cloud Strife says, "I didn’t... want you to be upset with me."

Sephiroth says, "I'm not. No need to worry."

Cloud Strife says, "I never... had that happen before."

Sephirothraises his eyebrow.

Sephiroth says, "never been aroused before?"

Cloud Strife says, "Not by someone... I can... touch myself and ... well."

Cloud Strifeblushes.

Sephirothsmiles.

Sephiroth says, "I'm aware... you can leave if you really are uncomfy."

Cloud Strife says, "No… I’m fine... just if you want me to go... I will."

Sephiroth says, "no.. I really don't want you to go, and you don't need to go if you wish to stay."

Cloud Strife says, "I want to stay..."

Sephiroth says, "Then stay with me. You can even move in if you like."

Cloud Strife says, "I would like that"

Sephirothsmiles.

Sephiroth says, "You may sleep where you wish."

Cloud Strife says, "in.. your arms?"

Sephirothsmiles broadly.

Sephiroth says, "I did say anywhere."

Cloud Strifenods happily.

Sephiroth says, "I've always wanted someone to cuddle."

Cloud Strife says, "I’m yours."

Sephiroth says, "and I'm yours."

Cloud Strifenuzzles at Sephiroth

Sephirothsmiles, his fingers through Cloud's hair.

Cloud Strife says, "This feels so nice."

Sephiroth says, "Yes it does...."

Cloud Strifestarts to doze.

Sephirothsmiles and the dozing Cloud and picks him up in his arms.

Cloud Strifesnoozes.

Sephirothlies down in his bed and holds Cloud with a smile.

Sephiroth says, "good night my hopeful love."

Sephirothfalls asleep with him.
