Short chapter people... deal with it...sorry...

Why must i repeat myself so much i don't own anything

She looked up at the man with the sky blue eyes holding out a helping hand "are you alright?" she didn't know what it was about this man, she's been having a hard time trusting people after what happened to her, but somehow him saving her from a group of men who had tried to rape her made him look like a hero. She took his outstretched hand.

He smiled "a pretty girl like you shouldn't be out this late, where do you live i'll take you home" at the mention of home tears trailed down her cheeks "i don't have a home anymore" she turned her head towards the building a few miles away that was set aflame

Zack immediately understood when she was looking at the house that was on fire "well if you have no place to stay you could stay with me" he said without thinking, she wiped the tears away but gave him a cautious look, "i didn't mean it like that!" Zack said waving his hands dramatically in front of him "i have a roommate and a kid, not my kid my roommates kid but it's not really his the boys adopted and well i thought...but if you don't want to i can take you to where you wana go and umm" he was now scratching the back of his head

The girl giggled at his nervousness a bad man would not be nervous a bad man was always confident in getting what he wants so maybe she thought "if it's not too much trouble I'd like to spend the night if you have extra space that is" Zack smiled grabbing her hands she flinched at the contact but he was too happy to notice "that's great come on, let's catch a train" she looked confused " a train?" he let go of her hands and started walking " yea i live on the plate" he suddenly stopped in mid stride making the girl bump onto his back

"i just realised i never asked your name.. Mine's Zack" he held out his hand to shake, taking his hand she shook it "I'm Aerith it's nice to meet you"

When they reach his place Aerith was pleasantly surprised she had expected to see him living in a flat or something instead they walked into the garden of a well of house two floors, she did note however that the garden needed work and when she walked in she could tell only guys lived there.

"Sorry about the place we have been meaning to clean it" she smiled "its fine" he led her into the kitchen "you want some coffee, tea?" she sat down by the kitchen table noting how the dishes were starting to pile up "Tea would be great 2 sugar no milk" he got the cups "good thing you don't drink milk we kinda ran out of milk this morning i forgot to go buy some today"

He placed the cup in front of her taking a seat on the other side of the table " lets make you more comfortable with staying here for the night go ahead ask anything you want to" she looked him over from the gorgeous blue eyes to his spiky black hair there was a scar on his face "life story?"

"let's see i was born in Gongaga I'm 23 i went to soldier got a best friend and now i'm currently a co owner of a business" she smiled " what business?"

"Zack and Clouds delivery service"

"Who's your business partner?" she took a sip of the tea it tasted just right

"Cloud he's also my roommate and best friend"

She smiled feeling more and more comfortable in his presents tears of what had happened long gone he helped her forget.

The front door burst open just then small footsteps could be heard running towards them the boy looked surprised when he saw uncle Zack sitting across from a pretty lady he looked from the one to the other "Hey Denzel, I'd like you to meet Aerith, she's going to stay here for a while" The boy walked up to Aerith to shake her hand she smiled sweetly "it's nice to meet you Denzel"

Another face popped into the kitchen Aerith looked up at the blond spiky headed man he looked confused for a second when he saw her she had still been shaking Denzel's hand "Cloud this is Aerith, Aerith this is Cloud" Zack said jumping up

Cloud nodded in her direction "Denzel, homework now" he said the boy immediately did what he was told grabbing his backpack that he had thrown down at the entrance and disappearing upstairs. "So Cloud listen Aerith's house was burned down by some thugs so i told her it was alright to stay here till she figures out what to do"

"No you didn't" Aerith interrupted him " you said i could stay the night not stay till i find a new place"

"did i?" he asked scratching the back of his head again "well either way i think you could stay until you find a new place, right Cloud?"

"i don't have a problem with it"

"if you're sure you're alright with it"

"of course what type of hero would i be if i just left a defenceless girl out on the streets?"

it turns out there dinner was takeaway wutaien food after Denzel had complained about being tired of eating pizza. After dinner the boys all sat in front of the tv Aerith snuck away from them and started cleaning the kitchen she liked a neat environment she was still busy with the dishes when Zack walked in noting the clean kitchen

"Hey you didn't have to, you know"

"I know but i have to do something you're letting me stay here so i figured its the least i could do"

He grabbed the dish towel and started helping her they stood there side to side talking about small things. it was strange she felt so safe around him like the bad things that happened earlier the day didn't matter.

He walked her to her room "good night" he said "night" she said he stood there staring into her green eyes for a moment before turning and walking to his own room.
