A/N: Hi people! Officially, this thingy here has been ready since last Tuesday, but it was a good thing I waited to post it actually since I've added and/or changed some stuff in it. Some part of this didn't come out the way I wanted them to, but knowing me, if I had waited any longer to post it this thing would have never come out .
And also, I know this isn't very very long, but for a first timer I believe it's still alright XD

Disclaimer: I do imagine this isn't your first time reading fanfics, which means you should already know, I do NOT own any of the following characters nor the game where said characters come from.

Chapter 1

August 4th

11:00 a.m.

That's what the boy read on his small clock as a random song he didn't know echoed in the small apartment. He smashed a lazy hand upon the machine, bringing back the silence that left a few seconds ago. The silver-haired youth rose up to his feet, heading towards the only door that didn't lead outside to enter to bathroom. The ceramic floor didn't even seem to bother him.

11:13 a.m.

That's what the boy read on his small clock as he came out of the steaming bathroom, water drops still rolling down his slightly muscled chest, a towel around his waist and his hair sticking to his face, covering his shinning aqua eyes. The temperature of the room made him shiver lightly, but nothing extremely bad. He walked towards a small wardrobe near his bed, looking through it quickly once he stopped moving his legs. A few seconds after, some set of tops and pants were dropped on his bed as a grin drew itself on his lips.

The first set he tried was a skin tight black t-shirt with long white cargo pants along with a large white belt – not one made out of leather, mind you, he was more stylish than that.

The second one had the silver-haired boy keep the same pants and belt, but instead of a t-shirt, a sleeveless canvas looking shirt kept his torso hidden. As he looked in the mirror, a short growl, obviously coming from his stomach, reminded him he still didn't have had his breakfast.

11:28 a.m.

That's what the boy read on the small clock as he ate a toast to fill his stomach. Still wearing outfit #2, he bit and swallowed mechanically as he starred at the two remaining outfit.

11:33 a.m.

That's what the boy read on the small clock as he finished putting on the third outfit. A bit more class, yet casual, he had black jeans with a white leather belt and a white shirt with buttons. He liked it.

01:30 p.m.

The front door was tightly shut before a motor sound was heard, rapidly fading away.

"Here goes Yuffie!"

The black-haired girl quickly spun around to catch some films the brunette had thrown her.

"Thanks, Sora! Keep on going like this, you're gonna be a P.A. soon enough!"

Sora stopped whatever he was doing to stare at his boss. "P.A.?"

Yuffie, showing one of her greatest smile, explained: "Protograph Assistant, my boy!"

The brunette sighed as he went back to work. Protograph, huh? Well, it wasn't the first time Yuffie invented a word out of the blue like this, so why bother with it now? Plus, that one could be qualified as normal compared to disasterrific, disaster and terrific, and granterful, great and wonderful.

Although he had to admit it, he was getting a lot better at being Yuffie's assistant. The black-haired girl was a photograph. Not a professional one, she was only 19, but she did want to work as a model photograph someday. For now she mostly took what she called 'Boo-ooh Boring stuff' such as family pictures, but once in a while she got other kind of costumers, who wanted more… How did she that again? 'Yay-yay pics'?

Anyway, so there he was, mostly doing everything Yuffie didn't take the time to do by herself. Cleaning, bringing her films, helping her set things up for different sessions. Just now, while she seemed to – no wait, Yuffie never seems to have fun, she does. So she was having fun taking a cute couple in every position they could get into, and Sora was setting up a background for the next session. The lucky guy was one of Yuffie's friends who wanted to be a model and who needed a good amount of shots to show them to an agent.

The thing was pitch black with grey clouds here and there.

Finally, all Sora needed to place was, well, placed. The only thing left for Yuffie was to test out her lights and stuff the brunette didn't quite understand yet. Hey, he was no photograph and he didn't intend on becoming one, so why would he bother learning all that stuff? It's not like Yuffie, in one of her serious moment – which happened more often than it seemed – didn't try to explain all that stuff to him, but he just thought the information was irrelevant.

"Alright you two! Time's up, and I've got all the shots you asked for. Now, now, today's Tuesday, am I wrong? So come pick them up on Friday, they'll be ready by then." She turned around to face Sora. "Assistant! Step #1 complete! But that's not the point. I'm getting hungry, so you go to the café next door and bring me a muffin before I starve to death! Here's some money, grab something for you too while you're at it." She blinked an eye and left money beside her before turning again to talk with the couple.

Sora took the 10 she left on the table before heading towards the exit.

Snow. That's all Sora could see outside. And hell wasn't he tired of it; it had been snowing for four days now, and there was no sign of it wanting to stop. Well at least he spent most of his time either at school, with his friends or with Yuffie, which meant he didn't have to bear the cold February weather too often.

Hopefully, the door leading to the café truly was next door, meaning Sora didn't even have to go outside to reach it. He walked until he was under the 'Order Here' sign and gave a nice smile as the cashier noticed him. Since Sora began working for Yuffie, each and every work day looked the same. First he cleaned the floor and the tables, then brought Yuffie a film or two for her camera and then started putting the background for the next session. With that, he had done a good 3 hours of job. At that point, Yuffie sent him to the café to get something for the two of them, and the cycle repeated itself, only removing the café part, if needed. So by now, every cashier knew who Sora was and what he was going to order, that is two muffins, and every time they'd change the flavour so he and Yuffie wouldn't get tired of it.

About thirty seconds later, Sora spun around with the intention of leaving the place. That is, until he bumped into a certain person waiting just behind him.

"S…Sorry, I-I didn't look where I was go—"

It just occurred at that instant to Sora that the stranger, a male, was incredibly… hot. Yeah, that was the word. Silver hair reaching a little bit further down than his shoulders, shinning, living aqua eyes, a beautiful body shape – at least from what the brunette could imagine – and a good way of dressing. And then, it just occurred to Sora that he'd been starring at the male for a good ten seconds. Quickly snapping out of his state of mind, he hurried past the stranger, whispering some excuses over again and then to the door as he felt his heart pounding hard and fast inside his chest.

The quickly got out of the café, immediately taking a side step and then another, but backward this time, only to lean against the wall, just beside the door.

Breathe in. Breathe out.

It took about a minute for Sora to regain a bit of his composure, only to have a functioning piece of brain tell him to go back to Yuffie's studio, where the black-haired woman probably was waiting for him eagerly, running everywhere around while thinking about her empty stomach.

XxXxX

"Finally! Where were you? I neeeeed my muffin, now!"

Yuffie had jumped on him the second Sora entered the room and had taken the bag a second after that. She took the first muffin her hand came across, took it out of the bag and bit into it as if there was no tomorrow and this was her last meal, then mechanically putting the bag with the remaining pastry on the nearest table, which Sora didn't waste time in grabbing, knowing too well his lust for food would take over had he not taken it right now.

Soon after, the room fell completely silent, much to Yuffie's disappointment. It was then that she got closer to Sora, starring very suspiciously at him. The brunette took a step back. Yuffie took a step ahead. He repeated. She repeated. He sighed, knowing the situation was bound to go on the way it was right now, but she still took a step ahead and made him fall on the floor. The brunette raised his head, sticking his tongue out, while the black-haired girl laughed as hard as she could.

"What's up with you? Why were you following me so closely?" Sora asked, hoping she wouldn't drag him into one of her long, fruitless explanation.

"Easy! I just had to try and guess why you took longer than usual to get back here." A smile drew itself on her face. "And don't try to "There was a lot of people waiting" me, there's hardly anyone at this time of the day!" The smile grew even larger. "So it has to… Oh Gods! Don't tell me you've… actually… met someone?!" No, correction, that wasn't a smile; that was a hysteric fan girl in need to hear crispy details. "What did he look like?!"

Sora's eyes widened, his brain began searching throughout every single memories he had concerning Yuffie; time seemed to have stopped as the information his ears caught a second earlier slowly made its way through Sora's nerves till it arrived at his brain, where it was analyzed, then reanalyzed and yet another time. Then it seemed to Sora as if his brain told him "Sorry, no match found. Try using other words."

The brunette hurried back on his feet, totally unaware of the situation this silence would throw him into.

Yuffie sat down on the nearest table, crossing her legs and letting a victorious grin invaded the lower part of her face. "So I did guess right!" She chuckled. "Hey there! But don't worry, I just applied a girl sentence to a boy and it worked the way I wanted it to work!" The black-haired woman got off of her improvised seat, nearly on the verge of laughing every ounce of happiness in her body. "And this shall conclude step number one of mission LFSAB! Onward and upward top step two: Have a date with said boy." She winked an amused eye to a confused Sora, leaving him with nothing questioning his mind except for this. "Yuffie, hmm, what IS mission LFSAB for Pete's sake? Let's Find Sora A Boyfriend or something?"

Yuffie stared at him strangely while stuffing the last bit of her muffin in her mouth, chewing it fast, eyes blinking with incredulity. She finally took the chance to swallow the big chunks inside her mouth, as if she was hurrying to her answer that question in particular. "How'd you guess?"

Toc…Toc…Toc…

The brunette's head turned instantly, startled by the sudden sound (In any normal situations, hearing someone knock wouldn't be this surprising, but the sound came from right behind his back), only to discover the same silver-haired youth as earlier. Sora instantly backed up with a couple of awkwardly placed steps, but still managing to get out of it without feeling the floor on his head.

Yuffie, however, didn't seem the slightest bit surprised to see the male intruder, but she, from her sitting point, could have easily seen him coming. "How are you doing, Riku?"

"'Riku'? Wait, does she mean that friend of hers who… Yeah, must be. Though luck." But one detail occurred to Sora: She hadn't even greeted him. … No, that's not true. She did, but Sora had believed it was directed to him at the time. Anyway, that was not the time for such meaningless details, the boy Sora had ran into, stared to and even mumbled some inaudible things to was there, in the same room as he was in, and the brunette had no way to escape whatsoever if he wanted to keep his job, which, actually, was the case.

"I was fine earlier, and now I'm even finer." The youth finally opened his mouth, revealing a nice, soft voice, at least a lot softer than Sora expected it to be. Yuffie ran towards her friend, strangling him for about fifteen seconds with a hug.

When she finally let him go, she cleared her throat and asked with a voice filled with sarcasm: "And why is it that now you feel even better than earlier Riku?"

"You should know why." He leaned closer so that only Yuffie would hear him, although the silver-haired boy had profound doubts whether or not the brunette had heard the last two sentences. "Because you were totally right. Thanks, I'll make it up to you someday."

"Of course you will. And you only have two choices. The first one, you make me your personal photograph once you're taken in a model agency or two, you do everything from number one plus you try to go out with Sora to fill my yaoi need. Which one do you want to do?" Yuffie answered, not even opening the small space within her body and Riku's.

The silver-haired boy, though, got back to a straighter position before answering. "I can't guarantee I'll succeed, but a number two would be a good challenge. Think I've got a chance?"

Sora, who recently started acting normal again, went closer to the pair, wondering what kind of secret they could have shared that could lead to Riku's last answer. When he was beside his boss, she smiled at him, but not one of those happy-go-lucky smiles. This one looked vicious, as if her head had planned something and that it was now happening before her at that exact moment. That's when the brunette acknowledged he could fear the situation, for the black-haired woman had planned something, whatever her weird brain could have come up with.

Sora finally took his courage and placed it upon a single sentence, hoping it would lead to a clear answer. "Have a chance at what?" Yuffie's smile was only fuelled by that question as she answered nonchalantly. "You'll se soon enough, my dear P.A." And with that she headed towards her camera. "Come on Riku, we still need to take those pictures, and they won't get done without any of us. Sora, there really isn't anything else to do, so go get a good lot of films and come back here, you'll assist me a bit more directly for this session."

The brunette took a look around him to find the suitcase where she kept her films. "Now where could she have put it? I mean, come on, it was right there next to the background, at least that's where I left it. … Might as well ask her." The brunette turned towards Yuffie. "Tell me Yuffie, where did you leave the suitcase with all your films? It isn't where I last left it."

The black-haired woman turned around to face Sora while she pointed to Riku where he was supposed to go stand. "Hmm… Let me think… I think I placed it near the background for that last session with the couple. If it's not there, just look around, it couldn't have disappeared like this into thin air."

The brunette then began his way towards the last background, but he didn't even have to look around it since the suitcase appeared next to him in the other male's hand. "Is this what you've been looking for? It was just next to where we were two minutes ago."

Riku held the case a little bit further in front of him, careful not to hit Sora with it since he was pretty close. The brunette shyly took it from the other's arm, whispering a small 'Thank you' without even looking at him in the eyes, afraid he'd blush he if did. But it did seem Riku was not over with Sora yet since he was totally blocking the shortest way to Yuffie. "Hum"… I'd like to pass… And you have those pictures to take and Yuffie's waiting and—"

Sora stopped making excuses over excuses when Riku's finger landed on his lips and as he saw Yuffie slowly making her towards the two of them. Riku's voice rose once again, but only a little bit since he was only talking a bit louder than a whisper. "I know this will sound a lot unexpected, but what would you answer me if I asked you to have dinner with me and maybe something else after your work is done?"

"That's it; time must have come to a stop! What can I answer now? Yes or no. That's all the options I have at my disposal right now." Yuffie was now standing right next to Riku. "I'd say that he'd say he'd be so happy too! So where do you wanna bring him for dinner? Oh! And I have an idea for after that, you're gonna love it I swear! You know that really big park about ten minutes away from my house? It's nearly empty at about 7 o'clock. You two could have all the intimacy you need under the star and snow veil. Wouldn't that be cute?"

Riku smiled. "Thanks, that'd a great idea." He turned to face to brunette. "So… Are you interested?"

Sora's eyes wandered on Riku's face as they narrowed, his cheeks turned red and finally he opened his mouth. "Are you… Are you asking me on a… date or something?"

Riku gave Sora a small grin, his eyes told the brunette yes, but the mouth's answer was slightly different. "Would that change what you were going to answer if I told you that yes, I'm asking you on a date?"

"Question after question, huh? I guess that… No, it wouldn't change my… positive answer." Sora bowed his head, feeling that his face was now red all over.

Thinking her turn was now, Yuffie gladly added. "And now, for the finishing touch! Riku, Sora's shift ends at 4:30 p.m." She glanced at the surprised brunette. "I've just decided we'll close an hour sooner today, I'm sure you don't mind, do you? So come and pick him up here at 5:30 p.m. and he'll be ready. Alright! Now we really need to get going with your pictures, or else they'll never be done and I won't get to be your personal photograph when you'll be a famous model!" She laughed a few seconds before running over to the place where they'd take the pictures shortly followed by Riku, leaving a confused Sora behind.

"I'm going on a… date?"
