Whenever Zack got her way she always seemed more grateful than most. Her smiles never seemed to cease. Always Miss Brightside. Everyone just thought she heard Hojo was progressing rather quickly at the moment and that was why she was so happy, but that was just not the case at the moment.

As a matter of fact it was only because she was becoming a complete woman. She had almost all but forgotten she was ever a man. It was hard to even believe she was when someone brought it up. Sometimes she would wrongly correct people for telling her she was once a man.

Whenever she thought about it she had to think hard on what it was even like to be one. She felt as if she had been a woman for so long she had forgot she was a man longer. She just shrugged it off. No matter if she was a woman right now she was still just as much as Zack as she was when she was a man . . . she was just a woman Zack at the moment.

"I'm ready for my training!" she said with a booming voice and a wide grin as she entered the room.

Her eyes caught a glimpse of a slight jump from Angeal as she suddenly entered the room. Angeal turned to her and sighed with a blink. Zack just smiled as she scurried over to her mentor.

"Did you jump Angeal?" she asked as she placed her folded hands on his shoulder and her chin on top of her folded hands.

Angeal didn't say anything though. Zack couldn't tell if he was embarrassed or just didn't want to admit it. Sometimes she just couldn't tell with Angeal.

"You did didn't you!" she said with a smile as she poked her index finger at Angeal's square jaw.

"Do you mind Zack?" said Angeal glancing at her and then back away. "I'd rather you not flirt with me when the security cameras are on."

Zack then glanced at the cameras scanning closely their surrounding. She opened her mouth just silently wording 'oh'. She stepped back from Angeal and clasp her hands together behind her back.

"Sorry," she said with a smile and tilt of her head.

"It's quite alright," said Angeal turning to her. "Now let's start where we left off."

"Right," she said with a smirk as she pulled out her sword and readied for the day of hard training.

"How has everything been going Hojo?" asked Lazard as he called the scientist.

"Oh fine, fine," said Hojo on the other line. "But . . . there was one small incident."

"Oh?" asked Lazard leaning back in his chair and raising his right brow.

"Yes, one of the reactors—gave way and well—I'll need to build a new one. It could take a week or two," said Hojo with a smile knowing Lazard couldn't see his facial features.

"Is that a coincident now?" said Lazard shaking his head. "You know what Hojo sometimes I think you are delaying this on purpose—is there something about Zack you are not telling me?"

"Oh no, no," said Hojo shaking his hand. "You know I haven't seen the man-girl in quite some time. You won't prohibit me seeing her remember?"

"HIM Hojo," sighed Lazard tired of Hojo referring to Zack as a she when he, of all people, knows she was originally a man.

"He, yes, yes," said Hojo jittering. "Now if you don't mind I have a reactor to rebuild."

"Then I shan't keep you delaying any longer than you have," said Lazard hanging up knowing in to corner of his mind Hojo was certainly up to something involving Zack.

"Almost done," said Zack from her bathroom as she finished zipping up her outfit she was to wear tonight.

Once she was done she smiled as she turned in the mirror liking what she saw. She inhaled and exhaled with a smile. She then made sure her make-up was right and hair was nicely brushed. She then stretched out her arms and opened the door to where Angeal waited outside.

"Well," she asked with a smile and a twirl. "How do I look?"

Angeal scanned her up and down. He gave off the slightest of smiles as he said with his arms crossed—

"It's the dress I picked out for you."

"Yeah," she said looking down at it. "It fits me really good and I bought some shoes to match with it see . . . but anyways I was thinking to myself and asked what better outfit than to go clubbing with right?"

"What?" asked Angeal noticing what she had just said.

"This is going to be soooo much fun!" asked Zack bouncing on her heels just waiting to get in

Angeal just sighed and shook his head. He didn't want to go out clubbing; no he just wanted to stay home. He's never been out clubbing and never intended to in his life, but he couldn't help it if a certain someone always got her way—the devil.

Once they got near the entrance the large man looked at her and then at Angeal who just looked as if he didn't want to be there. Zack looked at Angeal and then at the large man before her saying—

"Oh he's with me."

The large man shrugged and let the two in. Once they entered their eardrums were pounded with the booming beats of music and songs. Their eyes were dazzled in an array of flashing strope lights that changed every color of the spectrum.

"Isn't this place great?!" asked Zack actually yelling at Angeal so he could hear her.

"What was that?" asked Angeal. "I can't really hear you."

"Never mind!" she smiled as she turned and danced to the beat. "Just have fun!"

But Angeal wasn't the type of man to have fun in a place like this. He was the type of man that would rather go on outings with his friends and hang with him instead of being with one of the most annoying and spoiled Shin-Ra girls at a club. Most of the time Angeal was at a table just sitting down while Zack was up dancing and—clubbing.

He sighed so many times that night he lost count. Most of them were because he didn't want to be there. No he just wanted to go, but he was doing this for Zack—she was the one that wanted to be so much like a girl and now the woman he starred at was nearly perfect. He sighed again wondering if he's lost that dear friend that used to be one of his guy friends he used to hang out with.

"Hey there," came sudden voice to Angeal.

Angeal looked up and saw two blonde women standing before his table just smiling. He didn't really know what they wanted, but would probably soon find out.

"Are you with SOLDIER?" they asked pointing to him seeing he had a weapon on him and he was dressed in his 1st class clothing.

"Yes, why?" he asked.

"Really . . . What's your name?" they asked with a few giggles.

"Angeal," he said. "1st class."

At that to two whispered to each other and then turned their attention back to him. With smiles they asked—

"May we join you 1st class Angeal?"

"Uh, I'm not too sure," said Angeal scratching his head and looking around.

"Oh, why? You with someone?" one asked.

"Yes," he said looking around for Zack. "But I don't know where she is at the moment."

"Well—we wouldn't want to intrude so we'll just go," they said walking off.

Not too long after they left Zack came up to Angeal with a smile and a giggle.

"I saw that!" she giggled. "You just got hit on."

"Uh, that's not funny Zack. I don't even want to be here," said Angeal.

"Oh lighten up," she said still keeping her eyes on the girls. "I wonder what would happen if I got in a fight with them over you. You know just be a real bi---. Wanna see a cat fight?"

"No, I don't," said Angeal standing up. "Look can we leave now before you get any ideas?"

"No," she said placing her fists on her hips and poking out her lips. "Not until you dance with me."

"Fine," said Angeal. "But then we leave."

"Fine," said Zack crossing her arms. "Mr. sour."

And so Angeal went out on the dance floor. He tried to dance, but with all the songs and beats that played it was a little hard to do and so he just gave up and stood there with his arms crossed. He was one sour man it looked as all saw him just stand there and sigh. Angeal just rolled his eyes seeing Zack find a way to dance to the beats—though it wasn't that pleasant to him.

Angeal was never one for dirty dancing and never would be. Zack on the other hand seemed to always be of the world and what was going on now. She dressed in the now-a-days fashion. Listened to their music and danced their dances.

So the couple looked a little awkward dancing. Zack was the only one dancing and Angeal—well he was like a statue more than a living being. Oh he got scolded later on by Zack, but he just wanted to leave.

Once they got back to Zack's apartment Zack slammed the door rather loud and turned with her arms crossed just looking at Angeal.

"What?" he asked seeing her displeased look.

"You know 'what'!" she said with her eyes narrowing. "When I asked you to dance you could have at least danced!"

"It's not my style," said Angeal as Zack walked past him.

"Then what is?" she asked turning to him.

Just as soon as she turned to him Angeal grabbed her wrist and pulled her to his chest. His left hand quickly fell to her waist as Angeal showed her what his style was.

"This," he said as he began to lead her in a walce.

Zack didn't say another word as Angeal walced to and fro with her gently in hand. She couldn't help but smile and stare at him the whole time. Angeal didn't smile until a couple of minutes had passed. Once he did Zack wanted to ask him why, but he didn't need to when Angeal said—

"You know your eyes sparkle like gems when you're a woman Zack?"

Zack just slowly blinked and smiled a little bigger, this time showing the top of her teeth. Sometimes Angeal could just be so—romantic. Zack could never really tell if she was falling for him or just going along with her 'experiments'. She'd probably never know though.

As Angeal finished his music-less dance with a spin of Zack he smiled and said—

"That's my style."

Zack just inhaled and let out a slow exhale. She then looked around and said—

"You know . . . we could just continue this in the bedroom. It is late after all."

"Yes, it is," said Angeal shaking his head.

Angeal then took Zack's hand and lead her to her bedroom. Once inside he walked over to the bed and gently pushed Zack down who was ever more ready for him. Angeal leaned down and kissed her on the forehead and then stood up straight again saying—

"Goodnight Zack."

At that he turned and left. Zack shot up in surprise saying—

"Wha—Angeal!"

Angeal stopped and turned to her with a hint of a smile saying—

"I want you up and early tomorrow. Training will be longer than normal tomorrow since you've missed a few hours."

At that he turned and left. Zack gapped her mouth open and just took one of her pillows and tossed it out of her room. She then sat down and crossed her arms. What a trick to pull on her.

Oh well, she Angeal left her smiling and shaking her head. Angeal, Angeal, always so gentleman-like. Still the same no matter what.

Hot Shot's girl: Hee hee, Zack's learning Angeal's harder to control than normal guys ;D lol. Well I don't think I'll be updating any time soon 'cause I gotta move, but I'll try and update when I can for ya :D Till then bye :)
