Summary: Sephiroth has some trouble describing how he feels about Genesis on paper.



Sephiroth wasn't the type to write love letters and it never occurred to him to do so. He sighed to himself and picked up his pen.

“What should I say?” He said aloud.

Sephiroth hesitantly looked around his apartment as if he thought he was being watched. Angeal had said that when it comes to a love letter he should write how he feels about the person in question but it wasn't as simple as that.

Sephiroth loved Genesis but he can be somewhat of a...what was it Zack had said...an “ass”. But for some reason Sephiroth liked how arrogant and self righteous the red head could be and not to mention sexy.

He sighed.
How he loved the fiery red head. Sephiroth would hide in the shadows and watch Genesis, watched how he would move his lips when he spoke, watched how his body would move, and listen ever so closely to his voice.

Sephiroth leaned back in his desk chair.

~How can I tell him?~ He thought.

This was extremely out of character for Sephiroth. He was known as a war hero not some lovestruck teenage boy and that's exactly how he felt. A lovestruck idiot!

He put his face in the palm of his hands. Why was he so afraid? Was he afraid of Genesis rejecting him?

Sephiroth slammed his hands on his desk.

“I am not afraid! I have never been afraid of anything!!” He shouted.

He looked down at the blank sheet of paper on his desk. He picked up the pen again and wrote out Genesis' name. He paused as to think of what to say next and it came to him...

Genesis,
I have watched you for a long time now and I have come to care tremendously for you.
I am not good at expressing myself to others and I hope you understand but I can keep this to myself any longer.

I'm in love with you...I always have been from the moment we met. I know this doesn't sound as glamorous as they make it seem in the movies but again I am not good with such things.

I would like to see you sometime soon. Maybe we can talk about this?
If you are not comfortable I understand.

Sincerely,
Sephiroth

Sephiroth sat back and looked at his work. He tried his best to express himself and hoped that what ever came form this is good. He folded the letter and placed it in an envelope.

Now all he had to do was deliver the letter to Genesis' apartment. He swiftly stood and walked to the front room and out the door.

He walked briskly down the hallway to the elevator and pressed the 2nd floor button. As he entered the elevator a thought came to mind.

~I hope he isn't back from the mission yet.~

The elevator jerked to a stop and Sephiroth exited. He looked down the hallway to make sure no one was on the floor and began to make his way to Genesis' apartment.

~All I have to do is make it there, slip the note under the door and leave as quickly as I came.~

He made it to the apartment and slipped the note under the door. Sephiroth began to walk away when he heard the door open.

He froze.

“Hmmm, What's this Sephiroth?” Came Genesis' voice.

For the first time in his entire existence Sephiroth went pale with fear.

“I uh...it's a note.” Sephiroth stammered.

“Oh really. For me?” Genesis said.

Sephiroth turned to face the red head.

Genesis pushed his hair from his face and opened the envelope. Sephiroth could only watch in horror as Genesis began to read the letter right there in front of him.

A smirk came to grace the red head's features as he finished reading.

Sephiroth tried to look as though nothing was wrong.

“You're in love with me?” Genesis purred.

Sephiroth's eyes widened just a bit.

“I...” but that was all he could manage.

Genesis began to close the distance between himself and Sephiroth.

“I want to hear you say it...” He said.

Sephiroth closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

“Genesis, I am in love with you.”

A genuine smile came across the face of the red head as Sephiroth opened his eyes.

“Do you know how long I've waited to hear you say that?” Genesis said.

Sephiroth was shocked. Had Genesis felt the same way for him all this time?

“What?” Was all Sephiroth could say.

“Sephiroth, I love you too.”

He closed the remaining distance between he and Sephiroth and wrapped his arms around his neck. Genesis looked deep into Sephiroth's eyes.

“Kiss me.” Genesis whispered.

Sephiroth leaned in to kiss Genesis softly.

“We shouldn't be out in the hallway like this.” He whispered back.

Genesis looked around the floor and then back to Sephiroth.

“Come in?” Genesis asked.

Sephiroth nodded.
