Hannah's POV

As the last customer left, I closed my eyes with a smile on my face. Zack emerged from the stairs. "They all gone?" Zack asked with a smile.

I nodded. "Yeah, that was the last of them."

"Good, I was getting impatient. I had to wait upstairs all on my lonesome," he said.

I rolled my eyes. "You were fine."

"You don't know what it was like, all by myself, waiting, anticipating, hoping you would walk through the door to end the agonizing torture." He took a seat at the bar as she finished cleaning some glasses.

"Care for a drink while I finish cleaning up?" I asked.

"Can I get a tall glass of you?"

"Zack, be serious," I said with a chuckle.

"Nah I am okay." I nodded slowly. I began coming to a more solidifying realization that I am not going to be here forever. I looked up at him sadly and sighed. "You okay? I didn't realize my presence was such a burden," he said.

I sadly laughed. "You aren't, really, I just have somethings on my mind."

"Maybe I could help arrange some of those thoughts," he said with a smirk and grabbed my hand.

I opened my lips to respond and then shut them. He would understand the situation. "Zack, you wouldn't understand."

"I could try, but its not a lady problem is it?"

I laughed slightly. "No, nothing like that. Um, can we talk upstairs?" He nodded. I finished locking up and followed him up to Tifa's room. I shut the door and sighed. "Look Zack, I am not really myself."

He looked confused. "Like around me or what?"

"No, like I am not who you think I am."

"Are you like a double agent? Are you a spy? Do you work for a government company? Tifa tell me the truth!"

"No, not like that-"

"Then what is it?! Are you like married and have kids? Am I the mistre-"

"Zack, I'm not Tifa!"

Zack laughed. "What do you mean?"

"I am not Tifa! I am another person in Tifa's body."

"Don't, be ridiculous, Teef."

"I am not being ridiculous! You saw Tifa die right?" I asked him. He sat down.

"Yeah."

"Did you feel her pulse?"

"Well yeah but..."

"But nothing I died and she died at the same time and we both came back as the opposite person. I can't explain it but I know it is true. Think about it, did Tifa ever show any interest before she died?"

"Interest in what?"

"In you."

Zack smirked. "Well of course she did all the lad-"

"Zack, honestly." I gave him a warning glance.

He sighed. "No."

"And you think she just came back different? You guys live in this video game, that me and Kayleen really like and it just happened."

"So you want me to believe that you are not actually Tifa, that you died in another life, you switched bodies with Tifa, I am in a video game, and you want me," Zack said counting on his fingers.

"Yes."

"This is crazy..." I looked and him, disappointed. "but completely makes sense! You and Tifa are like scary a like though! Oh! Who were-are you?"

I smiled and laughed. "My real name is Hannah. I come from another world."

"Like an alien?!"

"No not like an alien, like from outside this video game. I am a real person."

"So do I have my own game?" Zack asked with a smirk.

I laughed. "Well yeah."

"I bet it is awesome and badass and heroic and-"

"You die in the end and your girlfriend is Aerith?"

He turned to me, appaled. "What?"

"Yeah, you save Cloud's life and die for him. Cloud is supposed to be your living legacy. He is the real main character of your series your game is just a branch off."

"What. The. HELL?! Cloud is more important than me?!"

"Well to most people's eyes yeah?"

"Why am I Aerith's boyfriend?"

"Because you fall out of the sky and she is there when you wake up."

"So?"

"So because she 'saved your life' you ask her on a date and buy her that gaudy pink bow."

"Hey! I don't want to be responsible of the dreadful garment!"

"Trust me, it was painful to watch."

"You played the game?" Zack asked with a smile.

"Yeah, I didn't beat it yet but I am getting there. Genesis is being an asshole and won't let me win this part. I know you have all kinds of respect and honor for Angeal, but he can be a douche."

"What?! I can't believe you played my game." I laughed awkwardly.

"Well yeah, I mean you are kind of my favorite char-" He pulled me into a kiss.

"I think I love you," he whispered and I couldn't hear.

"Hm?"

"Nothing."
