Hey everyone, I would like to thank everyone who has been currently reading my stories especially anyone who has either favorited or followed it. So thank you.

Secondly I should hopefully be posting more often since I'm now on break and uni is currently over for the year, hoping to post up a chapter a week but will try my best.

Thirdly I'm posting this up a little earlier then I was going to because, wait for it, ITS My BRTHDAY, so I hope the spelling and grammar isn't too bad

Cloud looked around at the building in front of him. Here it was his first day at his new school, even thought he was put into the TURKS section you could still see that a large amount of money was put into this section of the school even if it was for the 'poorer' kids. Cloud wiggled in his new uniform, grimacing at how tight Zack made his tie, actually cloud could picture that Zack was opting right at this moment since they were in different sections.

In all reality that was exactly what Zack was doing, he was seated in his home-room complaining to any who would listen about how unfair it was that is cute little sticky was unprotected and all alone in the Turks. Many of Zacks class mates where ignoring him which wasn't very uncommon considering Zack had a bad habit of sprouting bullshit at any given moment but Kunsul was noodling his head and patting poor Zack on the back. Kunsul being one of the few people that knew Zack out of school and who in many ways had become nearly like a brother to Zack knew the real reason as to why Zack was so upset. He was afriad that someone was going to steal his little blonde away from him, weather it was only because they had just gotten back together or for other reasons Kunsul hadn't figured that out yet but he would soon.

As the bell rang, Zack jumped out of his seat and bolted out of the door, hurrying down the halls so he could see his favorite tutor before his classes started. Zack raced down the halls bumping and pushing into people as he went and quickly yelling out apologizes afterwards. As Zack came busting through a door and slid along the tiled floors to stop just in front of Angeal he couldn't help the millions of questions that popped out of his mouth.

"How are ya? Did you make me anything, cause you always bake me something. What is it? Do you have anything new to show me, what about to teach me? How are Sephy and Gen-gen? Wait does Gen-Gen still hate me, is he going to kill me still. I swear it was all an accident."

"I'm good Zackery. I have plenty to teach you as you have been away for at least three weeks. Mentioning that are you ok? You never did tell me why you left"

"I was helping out an old friend, he was going through a pretty big rough patch at the moment and guess what. He MOVED in with us, isn't it amazing. My Little spiky now here with me I can't wait to show him off to all my friends. If Gen-gen doesn't hate me still do you think you could all meet him this weekend, do you?"

"Zack calm down remember you have to breathe when talking. Luckily for you Genesis is no longer made at you for practically kidnapping his make-up and literature collection so you should be fine in that area and that sounds like a wonderful idea Zackery I'd love to meet your friend"

Cloud wandered in to the administration's office and waited at the counter as a flurry of movement could be seen behind it, as a group of middle aged women moved around the room. One looked up and after noticing him sent him a comforting smile.

"Hello sweetie and how may I help you today"

"Um I'm new I need my time table and if at all possible something to help me work my way around it's a bit bigger than most places I've been too"

"Oh that's fine well let me just print off a map for you" the lady walked off and printed off 3 pieces of paper as she came back handing me two pieces " these are your time table and a map of the school building to hopefully help you get around. If you have trouble finding something just ask around and lastly this last piece is a form explain your lateness"

"Thank you very much mama"

Cloud glanced down at his map and time table and then shuffled off to the left following his current path way. After 5 minutes though Cloud was starting to get worried that he had gone the wrong way and when he looked at the name of the building knew he was right. Cloud was now outside building J121 when he needed to be at building E123 which by the look on the map was at the other end of the school. Just as Cloud was about to turn around and try again he heard someone call out to him as he turned he was very surprised to come face to face with the brightest red hair he's ever seen.

"Yo Blondie"

"Um yes?"

"Ya new? Haven't seen you 'bout before and I know everyone"

"Yes I'm new and not to sound rude but who are you?"

"I'm Reno and are you lost my little blondie"

"Yeah I'm kinda lost do you know how to get to E123? And I'm Cloud"

"Pfft what type of name is that, now don't pout my little blondie, it's not that bad of a name. I have a buddy called Rude get him in all kind of trouble and awkward situations and follow me I'll show you the way."

Cloud followed behind Reno mapping out the area inside his head as they went past buildings. Cloud glanced up and at Reno and finally noticed that even though they wore the same uniform Reno had forgone the tie and left his shirt untucked. The added bonus of his disheveled long red hair gave Reno a very yummy look that made Cloud want to run his fingers through his hair while just staring at him. Though when what Cloud was thinking about finally processed through his mind he could help but blush and hoped Reno hadn't noticed. Unluckily when Clod looked up he noticed Reno looking at him funnily before finally smirking.

"Now what has my little blondie blushing such a bright colour, thinking naughtily now?"

"Nothing"

"I don't think its nothin, it wouldn't be 'cause of little ol' me now would it" Reno smirked wickedly as he draped an arm over Clouds shoulder pulling him in closer.

"NO"

"Oh look at that your goin even brighter, gotta say it really makes you scream out adorable innocent uke, might wanna watch that blondie" Reno said whispering in Clouds ear before finally pushing him away gently. " Well here's your class, I'll probably see ya later. If ya haven't found anyone to hand with you can always find me, I wouldn't mind getting to know ya better" with that Reno moved off winking at Cloud before walking around the corner of the building.

Cloud knocked on the door and waited to be let in, when a voice called out he made his way into the room and then froze as he noticed everyone staring at him. After talking in a deep breath and putting on a smile cloud made his way to the teacher handing over his time table and note. The teacher glanced at him and then up at the class.

"Ok class this is our new transfer student, Cloud Strife. Please be welcoming and help him out if needed he's not quite use to such a big crowd what with him being from Nebliem. Cloud could you go take a seat next to Yufie how's by the window, Yufie wave for Cloud so he knows which one you are" after a girl with short bobbed hair who looked to be wauitan waved at him, Cloud moved to go sit down next to her.

The rest of the class progressed pretty normally except for a small hiccup when the teacher who Cloud found out was called Mr Tavers, discovered that Cloud already knew all of this year's curriculum for math and said that he would look at getting Cloud bumped up to the next grades class. After that Cloud went to his other classes when he seemed to have the same conversation with each teacher about being bumped up to the next grades since he seemed to already be ahead of his year mates.

It wasn't until he got to his last class which was Materia study with a Miss Hemmings that Cloud accidently blurted out that he had had this same conversation with all of his teachers so far. She had looked at Cloud critically for a number of minutes before finally smiling and saying that she would see if this was the case and if so might be able to move him the SOILDERS section since he seemed to be quite the genius. After this she had had Cloud drop off a number of forms to the office before being allowed to leave for the night.

As Cloud climbed to the apartment he was sharing with both Zack and Arieth he could help but mull over all of the excitement of his day how was he going to tell Zack about how he might possibly be able to actually be in the same section as him but in different classes if that did happen since it seemed he was being boosted up a grade. Cloud finally just shook his head and sighed making his way in to the flat, toeing of his shoes and dropping his bag on the floor. Cloud slowly made his way to his room and collapsed on the bed from exhaustion and slowly drifted off to sleep, hugging the same choccob that Zach had given him and hoping tomorrow would be better.

Well I hope you all enjoyed my latest chapter, would like reviews but it's not mandatory I'm not one of those authors who will stop writing if I don't get any but they are appreciated.

Though talking about review I might take a while with the next chapter since I'm still tossing over whether I should skip to the weekend where cloud will meet everyone or do a chapter in between about snippets of clouds week which will include more Reno though remember Cloud won't get with him in the end, him meeting Tifa again and a few other bits like meeting Rude and other's. Well thanks again everyone and have a nice day and keep reading, chao.
