A/N from A.C.: Were you right? Did you know who saved Sai?

"Get away from him!"

No… No, it couldn't be…

I took my arm from over my eyes and looked up through built up tears. A thump next to me and Weiss was on the ground. My eyes went wide, "No…"

Xemnas had Nero's chest pressed up against the fence, and held the raven-haired boy's arms behind his back. My silver-haired savior growled, "Why the fuck were you hurting him?"

Nero hissed out, his head turning to the side so his cheek was pressed to the wooden fence, "He deserves it!"

"What has he done to deserve being hurt like that?"

"He… He…"

"What? He what, Nero?"

"I don't fuckin' know!" The douche tried to pull away from Xemnas' grip.

Xem moved, pushing Nero onto the ground, on top of his brother. The two let out low grunts of pain. Xemnas growled, "Get the fuck out of my sight."

The two brothers looked at each other, then at Xemnas before they scrambled to their feet and ran off down the street.

Xemnas looked to me, then, his beautiful amber eyes softening. "Hey… Are you okay..?"

I sat up, whimpering softly as a sharp pain ran through my side, "Yes… I am fine. Thank you for helping me…"

"No problem. Do you need anything?"

I blushed lightly, "Could you help me home? It is not far… But… I do not think I can make it… my side really hurts. I think Nero broke one of my ribs…"

"Oh, Gaia! Do you want me to take you to the hospital?" He knelt down beside me and I quickly turned away, hiding my face.

"No… My mother is a doctor… Just help me home, please…"

Much to my surprise, he scooped me up in his arms instead of just helping me to my feet. I blushed brightly and gripped onto his shoulders, burying my face in the crook of his neck. He wove his hand into my hair, petting me lightly, and chuckled softly, "I can do that."

I looked up at him, still blushing madly, "Thank you… But you do not have to carry me…"

He rolled his pretty eyes, "Oh, please. I'm not gonna let you walk around if you couldn't even stand. What kind of guy would do that?"

"Oh…" It was all I could think to say. How was my mind even working? I was being held so close to the guy that I've been crushing on for years.

After we passed a few houses, I noticed my mailbox. "Wait… Here." I pointed at my house, "I live right here."

Xemnas nodded, and turned to walk up my walkway. He knocked on the door softly, tightening his grip on my slightly.

My mother swung the door open, eyes going wide, "Saix?"

I blushed brightly, "Xe- Xemnas, you can let me down now…"

"Oh! I'm sorry." He slowly lowered me and set my feet on the ground.

A wave of sharp pain ran through my body and I nearly fell to my knees. I tightly gripped a fistful of Xemnas' shirt and hauled myself up to stand straight. "M- Mother…"

My silver-haired God looked from me to my mother, "He needs help, Mrs. Saix's mom."

"No shit!"

I yelped, embarrassed, "Mother!"

"Sweetheart, you're hurt! This is no time for good manners!" She looked at Xem, "Pick him up, bring him to the living room and put him on the couch. I have to go get my medical supplies."

"Yes, ma'am."
