Chapter 6

Zack

Shit, shit, shit, shit! Everything was great, it was all going great but I had to be a dumb ass and kiss him! I ruined everything. Now he's going to tell his fiancé and they are going to pack up and leave. But I'll still be legally married to Cloud, and I can refuse to sign any divorce papers until the 2 weeks are up. Okay this might not be so bad, I just need to call Cloud and apologize, just blame it on the alcohol or something.

I was walking back and forth all around my room. I then stopped and pulled out my phone from my pants pocket and tapped his name icon, I held the phone up to my ear once it started dialing. My heart was pounding; I really didn't know how I was going to go about all this. It kept ringing until I got sent to voice mail. He must still be sleeping. Or he just didn't want to talk to me and waited till it sent me to voice mail.

"Damn it I don't know what to do!" I screamed. Alright let's calm down, let's just wait a few hours to call him back. A few hours, just a few…

I was sitting at my desk doing some paper work when my desk telephone started to ring, it showed that it was from the front desk, I answered.

"What is it Jill?" I asked as I continued doing some paper work.

"The Don is waiting for you up front, Mr. Fair." came her voice. She only calls me 'Mr. Fair' when there's important people around so she can sound professional. But why the hell is the Don here? Well I have been ignoring his calls lately. I looked at my clock that read 5:32 PM and got up from my desk. I took my phone and shoved it in my pocket and made my way out of my room and into the elevator.

The Don was leaning on my receptionist's desk and was attempting to flirt with her. He always tried to take advantage at being the Honey Bee Inn because he knows that he will get some sort of discount.

"Don" I called out as I made my way towards him. He turned and looked in my direction. He had his usual smug look and a unlit cigar, he knows I don't allow smoking in here.

"Ah Zack." He greeted. Reno and Rude where with him, one on each side.

"What's up?"

"I've been trying to contact you for a while Zack. Are you avoiding me?" He asked, sounding a bit offended. I swear this guy is an attention whore or something. I was annoyed but I kept my friendly façade.

"Sorry a bunch of things have been coming up and I just didn't have the time to call you back."

"I see…" He said as he looked like he was deep in thought. "…well then, anyway I wondering if you have gotten any new meat." He snickered. Ugh, he was wondering if I got any new girls really, that's why he's been calling me 100 times a day?

"Why? Are you tired of my girls?" It was my turn to sound offended.

"Oh no no no! I can never tire from my little bumble bees…" They don't belong to you. "…but it's still refreshing to see new beautiful faces around here, maybe you should start looking for new ones. Most of these have brown and black hair why not try something different… like… like some blondes!" He exclaimed. This isn't the first time he's ever suggested this, I know that the Don has some strange fixation with blondes. I let out a small laugh.

"You know that there aren't much of any blondes around here, Don. If a blonde wanted to work here then I'll give her a job but not getting any wont stop me from hiring any other women."

The Don grumbled something that I couldn't understand then pointed with his thumb to the receptionist who was dealing with some customers at the moment. "Then why doncha' lemmie have her fer a night, eh?" and here we go again…

"Don, she's not a honey bee, she's just a receptionist, you know that. I can't just give her to you…" I was beginning to feel like I was talking to a damn child who couldn't take no for an answer. The Don began to howl with laughter and wrapped his arm around my shoulder, which was a bit awkward since I was taller than him so I had to bend my knees a bit.

"Alright, alright I understand…" He kind of smelt like, Cigar mixed with candle wax. Well that's a weird combo. "But hey, why don't you drop by my place tomorrow, I want you to meet my new fiancé." Jesus is everyone getting married?! And the Don? Who the hell would want to marry this dirty old pervert?

I acted surprised. "You're fiancé?! Congratulations Don! Who's the lucky lady?" So I can pray for her poor soul…

"Scarlet, she is well known around here, she works for the Shinra magazine company." Ah shit….

"O-oh is that so?" Was all that I could say, I looked to Reno who was trying to hold in his laughter and Rude just looked plain uncomfortable. Damn you both… "So what time would you like me to visit tomorrow?"

"Ah well how about we make it a party, invite everyone and bring your honey bees. 9 o clock." And with that he departed. Well I guess that 9 o clock tomorrow is going to be the most awkward moments of my life. Whatever I just gotta play it cool. I noticed that Reno had stayed behind. I gave him a questioning look.

"Hey man you've been ignoring my calls too. You wanna tell me what's really up?" I let out a sigh and motioned him to follow me.

We were sitting on my white leather couches; drinks in hand.

"So what's up?" He began. "Did you fuck one of you honey bees again-"

"Shut up, no!" I yelled. Jesus! I leaned into my couch, letting it comfort me. "My husband is here…" I shouldn't have said it like that because Reno just broke out in howls of laughter.

" A husband huh! Are you the wife?!" He joked.

"Shut up ass hole! I'm the husband too!" I stated. He then stopped and started taking me seriously, finally…

"Wait-wait, so you're married? When the hell did that happen?"

"I don't know it just happened I guess. I just barely found all this out too…"

"Wait a minute, who the hell did you even marry?"

"Cloud…"

"Cloud?"

"Cloud."

"Cloud." He repeated once more.

"Yes, Cloud damn it!"

"Who's that again- no wait! I think I remember him! He had blonde spiky hair right?!" I looked to him in surprise, I didn't know his brain worked that well.

"Right on man." I said

"Yeah I remember that guy!" He then snickered "Oh man the Don was obsessed with that guy!" He laughed. Wait what?

"What did you say?" I asked. Did he say what I think he said?

"I said that the Don was all over that guy. You never noticed? I think Cloud was the one who started his obsession with blondes or some shit." I immediately felt…anger? Maybe there was a real reason Cloud absolutely hated the Don's guts. What the fuck did he do to Cloud 3 years ago…?

I immediately had the urge to call Cloud. I just wanted to know, plus I still need to apologize.

"Listen uh, Reno could you let yourself out, I need to make a call." I said as I got up.

"Wait what-"

"K thanks" I was already in my bedroom and I slammed the door shut. I pulled out my phone and unlocked it; the screen showed that it was past 8 o clock. I tapped on his name and brought the phone to my ear. This time he answered.

"The hell do you want now?" Oh shit is he really that mad at me? "I told you that we would talk when I got back." Wait what?

"Cloud?" I'm beginning to think that he thought I was somebody else. He as quiet for a second but then stated.

"I think I'm having an anxiety attack…"

"What?! Cloud where are you?" Shit, I immediately grabbed my car keys and started making my way out of my room.

"It's fine I can make it to Tifa's" He said defensively. He did sound like he was in pain though. Oh my god he's driving.

"Cloud pull over and tell me where you are, I'll take you to the hospital."

"I don't need a fucking hospital, I'm fine!" Damn it why is he so god damn complicated!

"Cloud!" I began but he had hung up on me. "Shit!" I was in the elevator waiting impatiently for it to get to the first floor. Once the doors opened I ran through the lobby, out the front doors and into the parking lot. I jumped into my car, I started dialing Tifa's number as I started driving.

"Hey Zack, what's up?" Came her voice

"Tifa where's Cloud?" I demanded

"Oh um, I think he's on his way back here I think. Hey cut that out!" She had started screaming at one of her customers. "Oh no wait I think I see him!" She began but I hung up. He had made it to Tifa's but he's still probably having the attack. I drove a little faster than usual.

When I got to Tifa's the parking lot was empty and the lights where off. Tifa must have closed early because of Cloud. I made my way up the stairs and without knocking; came into Tifa's home. I went into the living room and saw that Cloud was lying on the couch; sweat drenching his pained face. Tifa was taking care of him though there was so sign of Vincent.

"Cloud." I said and Tifa turned to look at me, worry in her eyes. Cloud had opened his eyes and looked at me.

I started to walk closer when… "Get out." Cloud said, "I can't stand to look at you right now so get out!" He screamed but then made a pained sound. Tifa looked to me.

"Zack I think you should go, I'll call you later…" She said. Cloud was mad at me and just knowing that for a fact made me angry. I had stomped out of the house and slammed the door shut. Cloud shouldn't even be mad! He had kissed me back! A head ache as starting to form….

Tifa had called me that night and I explained everything to her. She said that she would try to talk to Cloud tomorrow when he's not in pain but that all she can do. I tossed and turned most of the night…

I had woken up in my bed the next morning. I checked my phone for any messages. I had one from rude reminding me that the Don's party was at 9 and that I really shouldn't miss it. I groaned. I am not looking forward to this day…

I had spent most of the day doing paper work. Most of it was some things in the building that needed to be replaced or fixed. Then some were on improving the Inn, I was thinking of expanding it. My mind was numb.

Cloud completely hates me now and I'm never going to be able to get him back… I set my pen down and held my head in my hands. Damn it, I don't want to just give up! I lifted my head up and saw the clock. Holy shit did time really pass that fast! The Clock read 9:05 PM. I guess I could be fashionably late…

I was ready by 9:15 as where the few honey bees that where going to tag along. I still needed the place to be alive while I was gone so I left a few of them behind.

The honey bees waved good-bye to Jill who sat at her receptionist desk, she smiled and waved back.

We all made it to the party and the honey bees immediately went to go mingle with the party goers. I had found Reno and Rude who sat at a table drinking. I guess they weren't working body guards tonight. Reno saw me and smiled. He pointed towards where the Don sat along with Scarlet. Sigh, well might as well get it over with. Alright get into character Zack, be cocky, be a cocky mother fucker!

I made my way towards the Don's table and I smirked when Scarlet's eyes widened in shock.

"Ah Zack you made it!" Came the Don when I made it to the table.

"Well I can't go wrong with your parties, Don." I looked to Scarlet who was trying to avoid my gaze, oh this is going to be fun…

"Is this your fiancé, she's lovely."

"Ah yes, Scarlet this is Zack Fair, the owner and master mind behind the Honey Bee Inn." She quickly looked up to me, her face was flushed. She then held out her hand.

"Y-yes I've heard of you. It's nice to meet you Mr. Fair." She sounded like a normal person this time.

I took her hand and planted a kiss on it. "It's very nice to meet you Scarlet." She then chugged the last of her beer. I definitely have the upper hand.

"Darling don't drink too much, you still want to go on the tour don't you?" The Don spoke to her. Tour? Aaahhh shit…

"Oh sorry Zack, she was so interested in your Inn that I promised her that I would get you to take us on a tour of the place." He then turned to his fiancé. "It's absolutely amazing in there, you should see his receptionist, we would definitely have fun with her…" She then started giggling. Oh god, two freaks…

"Of course how about we head over there right now shall we?"

We had driven in separate cars to my Inn. I had gotten out of the car and waited for Reno to park the Don's car. Why does that guy even have a drivers license, no, the real question is HOW.

Once we were all in one group we made our way in the Inn. The few honey bees that I left behind sent out their usual greetings.

"Oh Zack you did get new meat!" The Don said with excitement. What? No I didn't- Wait who is that? Jill wasn't sitting at her desk instead it was some other woman….Oh my god…Reno had leaned closer to me to whisper in my ear.

"Dude, who is that?"

"...my husband..."
