Chapter 2. Attractions and Bars

Bayonetta handed Snake a cup of dark coffee. He nodded to her accepting the dark coffee while Cloud was reading. Bayonetta walked out of the room to go to her room.

"Where is she going?" Snake asked drinking his coffee.

"She is going to dance, she is incredible dancer by the way. She doesn't let me in unless she gives the approval." He said flipping a page in his book. "So, are you hungry or anything?" He asked Snake as Snake nodded.

"I could go for some pancakes or snakes." Snake said as Cloud smirked a bit.

"We have some left over pancakes and do you want an apple or orange to go with it?" Cloud asked putting away his book leading Snake to their kitchen.

"Apple." Snake said plainly as Cloud grabbed an apple and orange.

"If you need anything else, just let one of us know." Cloud hummed handing Snake the apple before peeling the orange.

Snake studied Cloud's posture which seemed causal and a bit bored. Overall, he was good male with lots of experience and he was a loner. Snake kept studying him as Cloud stared at him.

"Sorry, but I can't see what so bad about you." Snake said as Cloud ate an orange slice sighing.

"It's okay beside I'm not a bad guy neither is Bayonetta, they just don't likes us like they liked you. I mean Ryu and Ike likes us as friends, but overall they hate us." Cloud mumbled eating another one trying to seem focus on the orange.

"Oh, I apologize for bringing it up." Snake mumbled heating up his pancakes. "Blueberry pancakes?" He asked while Cloud nodded.

"Snake, why did you get kick off of Smash?" Cloud asked curiously as Snake's teeth grinded together.

"Blame Master Hand's brother; Crazy Hand. Boss Hand said it was an accident, but Crazy done it on purpose." Snake growled as Cloud nodded slightly.

"Sorry about you getting kicked off by Crazy Hand." Cloud apologized slowly as Snake shrugged.

"Can't change the past, but you can change your future." Snake quoted a bit while Cloud ate an orange slice.

"Agreed, but the past can reflect on you are or what you are." Cloud mumbled as Bayonetta walked out of her room. "Hey, Bayonetta?" He called out to her as she stopped then looked back.

"Yes, sweetheart?" She said in teasing tone as Cloud rolled his eyes at her while Snake smirked.

"Can Snake live with us?" Cloud asked as Snake shook his head no.

"Sure, I don't see why not." She laughed while Snake rolled his eyes.

"Why? Why should I live with you two?" He asked as Cloud shrugged at him.

"Well, you have no where else to go, so we thought since there is one room left." Cloud said while Snake huffed causing Bayonetta to roll her eyes at them. "Live in there." He finished while Bayonetta nodded. "Or, do we have to beat you in Smash?" Cloud asked raising up his sword while Bayonetta pointed her guns at Snake.

"Not getting out of this one, huh? I'm getting too old for this shit." Snake scowled at them before giving them a nod. "I'll live here, but please don't restrict me from anything." He said holding out his hands as Cloud shook his left while Bayonetta shook his right.

"We won't do that, but do you need anything like paint or weapons of some sort?" Bayonetta asked while Snake raised his brow underneath his bandana. "Remember, Umbra witch." She reminded him as he nodded slightly.

"We're good on the paint, but can you get my sword sharpened a bit? It's getting a bit duller." Cloud said while she grabbed his sword and put it in Hell where Rodin is. "Thanks." He mumbled before glancing at Snake who shrugged at him while drinking his dark coffee.

"Snake, what else happens now?" Bayonetta asked him while he shrugged.

"The hand forced me to do this, so I guess we work on a schedule of some sort." Snake mused as they both nodded.

"Sounds annoying." Bayonetta said playing with Love is Blue. "Why?" She pondered as Cloud shrugged at her.

"If the pay is good to you then." Cloud shrugged at him as Snake shakes his head annoyed.

"I have two connections with them. One of them is Peach and the other is Ike. I made a promise to them." He mumbled quietly almost like he done something sourish.

Cloud and Bayonetta looked at each other then chose not to press it. They all faced promises or regrets that wounded them. Each of them was personal than the last one, so they kept it to themselves. Snake couldn't help, but notice some attractions between the two. He was unsure of them being friends for now.

"Well, I'm heading to my new room." He said grabbing his cardboard box and heading upstairs leaving the two alone.

The two looked at each other before sighing a bit. 'He must like that cardboard a lot.' Bayonetta thought dragging Cloud out the door to the Smash House which he despised very much. He smirked lazily at her before speeding up to match her pace. 'This woman might be the death of me.' He thought before realize where her hand was. She seemed tense about this place, yet she held his hand though all this time. He allegedly appreciate her in a way as did she in a more sensual way which made him blush slightly.

"Cloud, are you feeling alright?" She stopped slowly before placing a hand on his forehead causing him to look away.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Why do you ask?" He mumbled lowly causing her smirk. "Why are you looking at me like that?" He grumbled as she ruffles his hair gently.

"Sweetheart, your blushing red." She teased as he glared at her causing her seductive laugh. "Ah, I get it. You are cold." She pulls him closer to her causing a squirm from him.

They walked together as Cloud mumbled how she acted around him was annoying. She smirked at him pulling him closer to her body. He huffed as they walked onwards.

"Cloud, why did you apply?" She asked him causing him to sigh lightly.

"You know I have trouble sleeping." He mumbled thinking of Aerith and Sephiroth. "But, I applied because Tifa said I was screaming in my sleep and think it would be good if I fight other people to keep those memories from happening." He said since this was the first time he told her.

"To keep you from screaming out, to keep you calm." She said as he nodded. "Well, you stopped a long time ago. I mean remember when we started living with each other." She said as he flinched slightly.

"Sorry for keeping you up all night." He said scratching his neck embarrassed of those accidents.

"It was my pleasure." She laughed at his embarrassment. "Beside, you need someone there for you and I happen to be that person." She said flicking his forehead causing a huff. "Oh, sweetheart, you looks so innocent when you pout." She smirked as he scoffed at her.

"Shut up." He crossed his arms stubbornly. "And, I don't pout!" He scowled at her smirk.

"Sure, you don't." She said with a sweet sarcastic tone. "Sweetheart, you pout." She rubbed her butt against his cock.

"Stop being creepy!" He said blushing as she laughed once more. "You are so frustrating!" He growled out as she grinned.

"Yet, you love it." She teased him walking ahead as he followed with a small smirk.

She was frustrating, yet endearing in her own way. He huffed as they continued to watch not noticing the cameras at all. He was frustrating yet adorable in his way. She gripped his shoulder causing him to look at her.

"I'm torturing you later." She said as he gave her a unamused look.

"What did I do wrong this time?!" He asked as she huffed annoyed with him. "Hey, answer me!" He said while she walked off and he followed.

"Nothing." She mumbled lowly as he looked confused. "Tch, stop looking like that!" She huffed as he smirked.

"Why should I?" He asked as she glared at him.

"Cause, we- You!" She glared at him with apologetic grin. "Are just so cute." She finished as he huffed at her.

"Take a hint, would ya?" He asked bluntly as she ruffled his hair playful. "We just pass the house." He said as he was being dragged to a club?! "Bayonetta!" He yelped as she dragged him in.

"Shh, calm down." She said as they sat at the bar. "I'll have a beer and Cloud?" She looked over seeing his flustered red face.

"I guess Vodka." He mumbled slightly embarrassed since he never drank before.

Couple hours later,

She lifted the giggling Cloud up who finished his last shot of his 'Blowjob'. She was not as drunk as he was since he got drunk around 15 or 18 while she usually got drunk around 70. He wrapped his arms around her neck snuggling her neck with his head. His face was red as his grin was bubbly and drunken.

Well, Cloud, you got drunk." She said as he grinned before nodding. "Are you up for anything?" She asked as he giggled more.

"Aaaa~, get me more." He slurred since he was hammered. "Bayo~, do you like me?" He asked nuzzling her.

"Yes, Cloud. I like you enough." She said as he cheered at her. "Why did you ask that?" She asked as he blushed harder.

"Cause, you are mine~!" He whined as she carried him. "I'm not losing you." He slurred stubbornly as she nodded while he snuggled closer.

"What happened?" Ryu asked her as she smirked.

"Bars, that's what happens." She explained as Ryu chuckled.

"Try not to take him there regularly, Bayonetta." Ryu chuckled as she smirked at him before carrying Cloud who happily waved at Ryu who waved back.

She carried Cloud who yawned leaning closer to her. She would have to explain to Snake about what happen to him, but this Cloud wasn't too bad at all.
