FFXII: Momentary

Fandom: Final Fantasy XII
Pairing: Balthier/Basch
Warnings: None
Rating: PG
Summary: A warning for Basch. For [livejournal.com profile] 5sentence_fics.



"I have to tell you," Balthier says, sounding perfectly calm despite the fact that he's pressed close to Basch and proving an awful distraction, "that I don't do long term relationships."

Basch wonders why Balthier thinks he thought he did -- Balthier's kind of relationship is characterised by the suddenness of this encounter: it is something that happens because the opportunity is there, and passes once that window has passed. "I fail to see why you feel the need to tell me that -- I did not think it was something for more than the moment."

"A man after my own heart," Balthier says, a smirk playing on his lips. "Although I am hoping to make this last longer than a mere moment."
