(In the Shinra mess hall)

"Doesn't this remind you of piss?"

"Ew…it does. You gonna eat yours?"

"Zack! You're going to eat this shit!"

"Cloud, you said it looked like piss, not shit…and yes, I'm going to eat it because I am a growing boy. I need my strength. And you do too Mr. 'I wanna be in SOLDIER!'" Zack laughed.

Cloud rolled his eyes and pushed his bowl over to Zack's side of the table. The brunette SOLDIER grabbed the bowl and slurped the entire thing down in one gulp. After wiping his mouth on his arm, Zack eyed Cloud suspiciously.

"Don't you have a Mako treatment today?" he asked quietly.

Cloud sighed heavily and turned his eyes downcast. "Yep."

"Well, I'll be in the room if you need me when you get back from it," Zack said, standing up and cracking his back loudly. Cloud stood up as well, facing Zack with glassy eyes.

"Hey hey…what's wrong spike?" the brunette asked, pulling Cloud into an embrace.

The blonde sighed again, laying his head on Zack's chest. "I hate getting these damned things…it wouldn't be so bad if…" he trailed.

"If what?" Zack whispered, tilting Cloud's head back, looking into his eyes.

Cloud's eyes shifted downward. "Nothing."

Zack sighed, letting Cloud go gently. "Well, I gotta go. You wanna talk when you get back?" he asked.

Cloud shrugged his shoulders and looked down at his feet. Zack sighed lightly and pulled Cloud into another embrace.

"Like I said, I'll be there if you need me. I'm here for anything. Remember that for me okay?"

The edges of Cloud's mouth pulled a bit and he kissed Zack's neck softly.

"I love you Cloud," Zack whispered.

"Love you too…" Cloud said, grabbing the back of Zack's head and pulling him down for a kiss.

Zack returned the kiss softly and pulled away from Cloud. He walked out of the mess hall and down the hallway.

The blonde sighed and made his way to the laboratory.

Cloud slowly made his way down the sickeningly quiet hallway where the Shinra laboratory was. He placed his hand on the bleached white door and pushed it open slowly. When the door swung open, there were all sorts of monitors, beeps and buzzes flowing through the room. Cloud stepped into the room, closing the door behind him with a click.

"Is that you Strife?" a voice called from behind a curtain.

Cloud cringed and walked behind the curtain. Behind it, Professor Hojo, dressed in his usual garb, held a syringe three-fourths full of bright green liquid. Cloud looked to the table to see who the unlucky recipient was and his breath caught in his throat. On the table lay Sephiroth, unconscious and strapped down. Cloud looked with wide eyes back and forth from Sephiroth to Hojo.

"If I didn't sedate and restrain him, he'd probably kill me," the scientist laughed, sticking the needle in Sephiroth's arm, and injecting the fluid. Cloud looked away as the syringe emptied hastily. Hojo tossed the empty container in a red trash bin and took off his gloves.

"Well, what are you standing there for? You know the routine!" the man hissed at Cloud, pointing to the next empty table.

Cloud sighed, climbing onto it and laying down. Hojo chuckled as he put on a pair of fresh gloves and grabbed a new syringe.

"Arm."

Cloud outstretched his arm and closed his eyes, ready for the preliminary round to be over. When he opened his eyes, Hojo was taking off his gloves and throwing them away.

"Alright, you're done."

Cloud stared with wide eyes at the man in front of him. Hojo's smirk grew.

"Oh, are you wondering why I didn't fuck you today? Well, I had my kicks already," he laughed, looking over at Sephiroth's unconscious body.

Cloud's mouth dropped and his eyes glassed over once more. Before he could blink, Hojo was next to him, holding a scalpel to his throat.

"Tell anyone about this Strife, and I can promise you that you will never live to see the light of day again…" he whispered into Cloud's ear. The blonde shuddered and pushed the scientist away from him, storming out of the lab. Hojo's cackling laugh faded as Cloud rushed up to his room.

Upon reaching his room, the blonde quickly fished the key out of his pocket and thrust it into the lock, turning it and throwing the door open. He ran to the bathroom, dropping to his knees and heaving into the toilet. Coughing out what was left of his dinner from the night before, Cloud wiped his mouth and sat back against the wall, breathing heavily. He sat against the wall for 10 minutes before finally falling asleep.

Zack strapped his Buster Sword to his back and exited the gym. He strolled softly down the hallway until his reached his room. He pulled his key out of his pocket and opened the door. He looked around, placing his sword on the wall.

"Cloud? You here?" he called, getting no response.

He began to walk around the room, looking for any sign of the blonde. He walked into the bathroom and saw Cloud passed out on the floor.

"Oh god…" he said, picking Cloud up and placing him on his bed. He ran back into the bathroom, getting a wet cloth and a bottle of pills. The brunette placed the wet cloth on Cloud's head and put the pill bottle on a side table.

Cloud groaned softly and began to stir. Zack's eyes lit up and he brushed Cloud's bangs out of his face. The blonde's eyes opened and looked around slowly. He sat up and cracked his neck, looking at Zack.

"You okay?" the brunette asked.

Cloud smiled. "I'm fine."

"Good, cause you had me scared shitless! I came in here and you were all—"

Cloud held a finger to Zack's lips. "Shh…you talk too much," he whispered. Cloud eyed Zack's lips hungrily and closed in the space between them. He placed his hand on the back of Zack's neck and pulled him closer, kissing him softly. Zack breathed in deeply and parted his lips slightly. Cloud parted his as well, letting Zack into his mouth, tasting him. Zack ran his hands down the blonde's arms and around his backside, cupping it gently and squeezing it.

"So is that what you want?" Cloud asked, kissing Zack again.

"More than you know…" Zack groaned, pressing his hardened bulge against Cloud's leg. Cloud pulled away from Zack and grabbed the bottom of his lover's shirt. He lifted it slowly off, revealing Zack's impeccable muscles. The blonde dipped his head down and mouthed one of Zack's hardened nipples. Zack opened his mouth and sighed, petting the back of Cloud's head. Cloud sucked the nub, swirling his tongue around it and biting at it lightly. The blonde kissed his way down farther until he reached Zack's bellybutton. He tongue-fucked the hole, getting many soft moans from his lover. He began to kiss his way down more until he reached the top of the SOLDIER's pants. He looked up at Zack whose eyes were half-lidded and pulled the man's pants clean off.

"Cloud…oh god…I need…" Zack moaned, running his fingers through Cloud's hair.

The blonde grabbed Zack's aching member, lowering his head down…
