Note: I do not own any character described here!
I've been thinking about this story for two months now (since I finished playing Dirge of Cerberus! ) \o/ and finely decided to writhe it. Well…yeah...I know it got too long my story…but wanted to write it anyway. Like I said it was all in my mind for two months…so I just wanted to pull it out of my system. :p
About the story…it is a continued story of ffVII first game...the advent children movie and Dirge of Cerberus…so yeah it contains some spoils.
And one more thing…I haven't played yet the of ffVII first game…I only watched the movie and played Dirge of Cerberus…so If I said any absurd thing about the story...please tell me…but remember…my story is not supposed to be a exactly replica of square's stories…so Yeah, I know I did changed a few information…
In this story, I mixed everything…drama, romance, horror, action and a bit of comedy…
There will probably be some grammar mistakes, so don't hate me for it, please, instead be helpful and tell me what is wrong, besides, like I said on my profile, English is not my original language, I just like it and want to practice it! ;)

---Chapter 5 –Her apartment ---
…
20 minutes later I stopped the car in front of an old small building.
I put her left arm around my shoulders to help her walk, and when I was about to turn the doorknob a fat red head old woman, about 50 years old opened it.
-Oh my God, what happened to her?? I was getting worried she didn't got home until now!!! –she said grabbing the right arm to help.
-I'm ok miss Aya…I'm just a bit dizzy. –Lucrecia said smiling at her.
-Ohh… good lord… and drunk!!! –she said after feeling her alcoholic breath, but then she took a good look at me and then said… with a big smile:
-You naughty girl!!!! So that is what you were doing… and I was worried!!! Hahaha.
-What?? No!!! That is not…-Lucrecia got so blushed that I could say she got tan, as she was trying to explain it, but she got interrupted by the crazy old lady.
-Ohhh don't worry, I won't tell anyone… if you left some for me later! –Oh boy! And she blinked at me. I just had to laugh of that situation!
So miss Aya helped us to get to the elevator.
-Good night kids!!! –she said in a presumptuous tone with a big happy smile.
-Good night miss Aya! –I smiled her back. I was actually enjoying, especially after seeing Lucrecia's angry blushed face.
Soon as the elevator moves up to the 6º floor she said:
-Great, now she is going to pick on me for the rest of my life… and why didn't you say anything???? –she punched my shoulder.
-I... I don't know… -I faked being confused.
The elevator opened and she pointed me to the apartment number 606. She took the keys out of her bag and opened the door when we got there.
-Man…you are really messy!!! –I said surprised looking at her apartment. There were boxes all over the place, and books and things over the couch.
-I just moved here your moron…can't you see? –she said letting go of my shoulder.
So I took a better look and realized that there were no portraits on the wall or anywhere else, there was no table and the tv was still inside the box.
Suddenly I heard the sound of her throwing up.
-Lucrecia? –I closed the door and went to the bathroom; she had her head down to the toilet. I held her silken soft long hair, so it wouldn't get dirty.
-Do you want me to get you something? Water? Tea?
She said "no" with her head and throw up again.
-There goes my Italian... –I heard her laughing.
Then I help her to clean herself, and go to bed.
Her bed had some boxes over it, so I put them on a small spot I found on that floor full of boxes.
Soon as she laid she fell asleep.
I piled the boxes on the floor that were over an armchair so I could sit on. I was thinking on spend the night there in case she needs me, but when I sat, I realized I really wasn't sleepy. So I decided to settle that place. I closed her door room so she won't wake up with the noises.
---
I fell asleep on her living room's couch, when I head her room's door complaining when she opened.
-The door…must… to fix… the door. –I babbled getting up sleepy. I scratched my face and looked at her. She was stoned.
-What happened? Are you alright? Need to throw up again? –I asked worried.
-What have you done here??
-What? Oh…I...hope you don't mind…I couldn't sleep, so I decide to arrange your living room...and kitchen…and bathroom.
I had placed the books on her shelves; put the portraits on the walls. Swept the floor, took off the dust out of the furniture, I even mount her dinner table that still was inside the fabric box, and some cabinet's wall.
-Oh...Vincent…you didn't have to do this!
-I know… I just...couldn't stand that mess.
-Well…thank you very much…I just had no idea when would I be able to fix this place… -she said going to the kitchen -…can I ask where are all those boxes??
-Oh…miss Aya helped me putting them out side…with a big smile on her face. –I said very proudly.
- I bet she did…
-You seams very close to each other for someone who just moved in. –I said.
-Ah…I actually lived here before...when I was in college… she already worked here. –she said preparing some coffee.
-Hmm... -She throws me an apple and I took a bite.
-So…how are you feeling… you head I mean.
-It aches.
-I can imagine… you drunk a lot.
-Yeah…
-Don't you have any pills? A pain killer?
-No…I don't usually drink.
-Hmm…want me to get you some?
-No, I am fine.- she said sitting on the couch with her cup of coffee. –if you want you can have some coffee there.
-I don't drink coffee.
-Oh...I guess I have tea too…and some juice on the fridge.
-I'm ok…I should get going anyway. –I said taking my suit and my tie from a chair that I took off to clean the apartment.
-Oh... please, at least let me make you some lunch to thank you! You made a incredible dinner last… which you shouldn't, since I was the one who would take you to dinner… you drove me home, fixed my place…saw me throw up…at least let me do this! –so she hold my hand to not let me go.
---
She made a simple and yet terrible food. It had no salt, no seasoning and it was gluing in my tongue. And all she did was rice, beans and burned steaks with some salad.
-Hmm…I have to say boss…you are an incredible terrible chef. –I said taking more from my plate.
-…sorry…I know…I'm going throw up again later you know.
-I'm pretty sure you are.
After we ate, I helped her washing the dishes. And then she went bed again.
-Well...I should going now…do you think you can fix your room later? Or want me to help? –I asked looking the boxes from the door.
-No!!! Go away!!! You've done enough already Vincent. Thank you, thank you, thank you, so much for everything. –so she gave me that smile that I love so much. -…now go! Shoosh! –she said gesticulating for me to leave.
-Ok...bye boss.
-Bye Vincent…I'll see you on Monday.
When I left the elevator, I was holding my suit over my shoulder, and left my tie loose around my neck. Miss Aya said:
-Ooohh... the night must have been great, right sugar? You look tired!!! –she said with a really big smile.
-Good bye miss Aya! –I said smiling as opening the door way.
-Good bye candy!
So the rest of my weekend was boring, watching tv. I should had asked Lucrecia's phone number and given mine to her. I was getting anxious to know about her… if she got better or not. I thought going over there again to know about it, but I decided not to. I didn't know what she would think if I appeared there unannounced…and plus miss Aya could take care of her if she needs.
