Zack was honestly amazed that Cloud had managed to drag the both of them to Aerith's church. Amazed and a little suspicious. It brought up the issue of what exactly Hojo had done to the blond. It was something he was going to have to think more about. But not now. No, things were going to well, he didn't want to bog down the mood by thinking about doctor psycho-creepy. Right now they had to focus on the here and now, they could worry about the past later.
Unfortunately the here and now was the uncertain question of were to go from here. They had no money and even if the did they couldn't risk staying in a motel. They couldn't stay at the church either. It was too open, too public.
In the end, Aerith decided to sneak them out of the church and over to her house. It was a slow journey through the slums, but the had to be extra careful now.
The Turks were still watching Aerith. Truthfully, Zack didn't mind. He knew how Tseng felt about his girl and really, it was all the more power to their cause. Tseng didn't want to see Aerith in Hojo's hands anymore then he did so this way he wouldn't have to worry so much about her.
Him and Cloud on the other hand, well he was kinda at a loss. Aerith was willing (more than really) to let them stay at her place. Her mother was away visiting a friend in Kalm so they didn't have to worry about her. Zack knew it was only going to last a few nights though, her mother would be back in a couple days and she would never allow them to stay. Honestly, he would prefer to be gone by then anyway. Coming to Midgar wasn't exactly his smartest move and even though, as far as ShinRa knew, they were 'dead', it wouldn't last. No doubt Hojo would send the troopers back to get the bodies. Once they realized that they were gone the search would be re-started.
It made him more than paranoid though, knowing that any day now the search would be back up, but he supposed he should consider himself lucky that they'd had the minor distraction of his presumed death. It bought some time, not a lot but more then he could hope for. But until they were safely out of ShinRa's hand, he wasn't going to take any chances with Cloud or Aerith.
But for now, he was enjoying the first real shower in almost five years. He'd almost dragged Cloud in with him before he remembered he didn't need to do that anymore. But it was kinda nice to shower alone. It'd help him get his thoughts together. He really needed some quiet alone time too.
Five years.
It didn't seem so bad when they were on the run, but seeing Aerith all grown up drove it straight home. She was no longer the shy seventeen year old he remembered, but a lovely twenty-two year old woman with more guts then ever. A twenty-two year old beautiful woman he might add. But that raised some questions too. Questions about traveling with Cloud, about what happened on said travel and what he was supposed to think now.
Because he loved Aerith and he wanted Aerith, but... He loved Cloud too and he really wanted Cloud.
Ahh, this was way to much for his poor straight mind to follow, except... He was pretty sure that once you started thinking about guys like that you'd graduated past straight. But, it wasn't guys he was thinking about, it was Cloud. Yeah, Cloud was guy, but he was the only guy. So he was a Cloud. What did you call it when you were sexually attracted to a Cloud? Maybe he was a cloud-sexual. Huh, that sounded right. So, he was a straight cloud-sexual. That made it almost okay.
A banging on the bathroom door startled him out of his musings.
"Zack Fair, leave some hot water for Cloud!" Aerith's voice floated through the steam and he absentmindedly wondered how anyone could make nagging hot. Not that'd he'd ever tell her that, for more then the obvious reason. But he had been in here a while and Cloud really, really needed a shower too. Besides the quicker Cloud got clean the sooner he'd be able to cuddle up to his two favorite people. It'd be a nice, warm Zack sandwich (because he didn't think Cloud would be comfortable sleeping next to Aerith just yet).
Shutting off the taps, he blindly reached out for the fluffiest thing he could feel and started toweling off. Yeah, they still had a lot to do and more then enough to worry about, but for the first time in what felt like forever, he couldn't be happier.
So Cloud hadn't agreed to the whole zackwich idea, and neither had Aerith (but that was probably because she knew Cloud was uneasy still) but he'd convinced Cloud to sleep with him that night and it was enough. Well, he didn't really need to convince Cloud, in fact Cloud had slipped into Zack's bed without question. He was pretty sure the blond was still shaken from the whole ideal, so it was only a small surprise when Cloud had snuggled up to Zack before he even had a a chance to get under the covers.
"Hey Zack?" Cloud's voice was muffled against Zack's chest, his hands clenching the front of the borrowed shirt.
"Hm, yeah?"
"...Nothing." He wanted to call the blond out for that, but his lids were suddenly to heavy and he couldn't find the energy to open his mouth. With one last sigh he was asleep.
With an armful of Cloud, it should have been the best sleep of his life, but it seemed the nightmares didn't go the way of the mako poisoning and he was up most of the night calming the blond down. It was both easier and harder now that Cloud was actually aware. Easier because he could reassure Cloud with words like he hadn't been able to before, but harder because he was pretty sure Cloud wouldn't react quite the same if he stuck his fingers in his mouth.
The plus side of it all was that eventually the blond exhausted himself enough to slip into a more dreamless state of sleep and by the time they had both woken up it was past two in the afternoon. Although Aerith hadn't been waiting at their beside with lunch, she and the food were waiting patiently downstairs in the kitchen and- Gaia was that apple pie?
He knew that as soon as the meal was finished he'd they'd have to get serious about planning the next course of action, but until then he was perfectly happy sitting at the table eating pie and making fun of Cloud's hair.
