Anne hummed as she walked down the corridor to her locker, a towel wrapped around her shoulders. She looked down at Jade's swimming costume and sighed. Jade liked to expose too much skin. Her navy blue costume had a split at the front, exposing Anne's belly button and the back exposed the whole of her back, along with her embarrassing acne. Plus it dipped quite low, Anne was worried that Sky might accidentally see the crack of her ass when she did the front crawl around him. It was strapless too, showing off Anne's bony shoulders. And it didn't support her breasts as much as her normal swimming costumes did, Anne was dead embarrassed when she felt her breasts move up and down. Anne didn't want to waste much time lingering in public with the swimming costume, especially if Sephiroth is on the prowl.

Anne dropped her locker key when she saw SLUT sprayed on her locker and she stared at it in confusion. She saw a note stuck out from her locker and pulled it out shakily, unfolding it and snarled when she recognized Ditzy Daisy's curly handwriting.

Slutty Annie can't seem to stick to one guy

Slutty Annie needs to sleep with all the boys in the school

Slutty Annie has all the boys' attention because she's too lonely

Slutty Annie will be willing to sleep with her teachers for good marks

Slutty Annie will soon have all the boys grovelling for her body

Slutty Annie will be a world class porn star when she grows up

Slutty Annie might start to work right now because her family is so poor

Slutty Annie will never be smart like her sister

Slutty Annie will burn in hell for sinning for her lust

"That's not true," she murmured and her whole body shook then dropped the note "I'm not a slut, I'm a virgin. I don't have all of the boys' attention… It's…Sephiroth's fault. I did that performance to get back at him. And no-one saw anything. I'm not a slut, I…"

Anne suddenly saw red and she screamed, throwing a punch into her locker. Pain shot up her arm as the whole locker jolted and fell over on its side from the sudden disturbance. Anne began crying and ran off, down the stairs and out of the main doors.

Meanwhile with Sephiroth…

Sephiroth paused as he saw a blur run out of the school gates from the drama rooms. He blanked out Genesis's retorts towards Zack as the young man accidentally tore his pale pink dress that Garnet was trying to fit on him. He recognized the length of the hair that followed the figure and he wondered why Anne would abruptly leave the school grounds. And there wasn't much time until the seventh period start. He blinked when Crystal rose from her place.

"Alright, I'm done fitting it for now," she said and Sephiroth immediately reached behind him to unzip the damn dress off him.

Crystal blushed and looked away as Sephiroth stepped out of the dress in his boxers and began pulling his trousers up and putting his shirt on.

"Sephiroth, we need to rehearse our lines," Genesis said as Garnet pulled the dress off Zack and started working on the nasty tear.

Sephiroth paused and glanced at the gates before locking on Genesis's gaze.

"We don't have much time left," he commented but Genesis tutted him to silence him.

"Every minute counts," he said and turned to Cloud to see how well Ruka was doing with his fitting.

Sephiroth groaned then glanced at Hikari who had been fitting Genesis's dress on. He discretely leaned in to whisper in her ear.

"I've just seen Anne run out of the school."

Hikari looked up at him with alarmed eyes.

"She doesn't usually go out of school unaccompanied unless she's been broken mentally or she's remembered something and needed to go back home…" she murmured "She could get hurt if she's mentally broken…"

"Cover for me, I might be late for Science," Sephiroth suddenly said as he flipped the window open and jumped out.

"Sephiroth, get back here!" Genesis shrieked as he landed and ran after Anne.

Meanwhile with Anne…

Anne sniffed as her bare feet ached while she sat on one of the swings in the park near her home. Gravel stuck to the sole of her feet as she toed the tarmac underneath her and wiped the tears from her eyes. Then she began crying more, covering her face despairingly. She didn't see the figure approaching her until the chains of the swing rattled. Anne raised her head and her eyes widened when she saw Sephiroth.

"You!"

She stood up, dropping her towel in the process and slapped him harshly.

Sephiroth: 16

Anne: 15

Sephiroth blinked as he stumbled and rubbed his cheek tenderly.

"I take it everything is not alright," he raised an eyebrow and Anne burst into tears, covering her face.

"It's all your fault!" she shouted at him as he tilted his head and stepped forward.

Anne's breath hitched as Sephiroth embraced her tenderly and sat down on the swing, gently swinging them back and forth. Anne was carefully shifted so that she was straddling on his lap. Sephiroth hugged her to his chest, hushing her and kissing her head every so now and then. Anne blushed and hugged him tightly, sobbing uncontrollably. Sephiroth rested his cheek on her head. He smirked softly when he ran a hand down her arms and down her back comfortingly.

"What's the matter?" he asked.

Anne sniffed and rubbed her eyes.

"I don't want to talk about it," she murmured.

Sephiroth smiled at how cute she sounded and hugged her a little tighter, holding back a purr as he tangled his fingers into her sopping wet hair. He gently wrung out her hair and kissed her neck gently.

"Do you want to go back?"

"No…"

Anne looked up at him and tilted her head.

"Why are you being so nice?" she asked.

Sephiroth chuckled and kissed her forehead, running his hands through her hair.

"Perhaps I'm tired of this pointless little game," he murmured.

Anne blinked and bowed her head with a soft blush. She then looked up and tilted her head to the other side with a pout. Sephiroth hesitated, somewhat enchanted by the cute sight.

Anne: 16

Sephiroth: 16

"Game set and match, little Anne," Sephiroth decided and patted her head "Will you accept my proposal to go steady?"

Anne blushed more and hunched her shoulders. She opened her mouth then closed it and nodded, leaning her forehead on his chest. Sephiroth smirked and took her chin, lifting it up so he could stare into her eyes. Anne sniffed and rubbed her nose shyly. Sephiroth leaned in and she blushed up to her ears and closed her eyes, shivering.

"I do hope that's just you being cold, little Anne," Sephiroth teased.

"S-Stop calling me little…" Anne whined "I hate it when…"

Her eyes flew open as Sephiroth stole her first kiss and her eyes seemed to burn at the thought of having her first kiss unexpectedly stolen. Her eyes fluttered to a close as she began to kiss back timidly and Sephiroth chuckled into the kiss, grunting when she landed a soft blow into his gut. Sephiroth pulled away and patted her head while rubbing the spot that she had hit him.

"That was uncalled for," he scolded her mockingly and Anne yelped as she was sprawled across his lap "Naughty girls get spanked."

"DON'T YOU EVEN DARE YOU STUPID PERVERTED PLAYBOY!" Anne roared as she thrashed about in his grip.

Sephiroth chuckled but it was very brief when Anne grabbed her wet hair and slapped it across his face. He let go of Anne who made a run for it once she was free. Sephiroth smirked and chased after her, tackling her when they were on the grass. Anne yelped and squealed as Sephiroth tickled her mercilessly and they rolled around on the grass until Anne was sprawled on top of Sephiroth. Sephiroth smiled and pulled Anne down for another kiss and lying back lazily.

"What are you supposed to have Period Seven?" he asked and Anne sighed.

"Dancing. I'll get paired up with Genesis again," she pouted.

Sephiroth smirked and winked.

"Want to go round my place?" he asked and Anne slapped him on the chest.

"Please, Sephiroth, you're smothering me," she growled and Sephiroth laughed "Hey! I'm being serious!"

She pouted and sat up, arms crossed over her chest.

"Why can't you be romantic like you were with Crystal?" she whined and Sephiroth sat up at her request.

"You like romantic guys?" he said with a raised eyebrow.

Anne blushed and looked away.

"Uh…yeah, sort of…"

Sephiroth smirked.

"Well why didn't you say so before? I could have taken on a different approach."

Anne gaped at him, mouth opening and closing before she slapped him.

"Bastard!" she shouted and Sephiroth rubbed his cheek with a frown "You enjoyed sexually harassing me! And you didn't even ask about my preferences!"

"Will you stop abusing me?" he asked politely "I'm your boyfriend now…"

Anne pressed her hand over his mouth.

"Don't say things like that in public!" she hissed.

"But I'm a public man," Sephiroth smirked as he pulled her hand away.

"But…but…"

Anne sniffed and turned away.

"Everyone will really think I'm a slut…" she whined and Sephiroth sat up straight.

"Who called you that?" he asked and Anne turned away.

"For some reason, Daisy stuck a note about me being a slut in my locker and someone else spray painted the word onto it…"

Sephiroth gripped the grass then picked up Anne.

"Let's go back before we get into trouble," he decided and began walking back to the school "I'm going to tell Father about this."

"N-No! I…"

Anne hissed in pain when she opened up her punching hand and Sephiroth looked down to see that it was rather bruised. Cooing, he pressed a kiss onto it and nuzzled her neck.

"Come on, we need to tell someone," he said and Anne fell silent, hunching her shoulders.

Anne lay her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes. Oh boy, now she's being Sephiroth's girlfriend, huh? What good could possibly come out of that?
