Day 19 - Male Showers
It was in complete silence that Zack was moved from the cafeteria to the showers. Usually one would have expected him to be chatting with the nurse despite the fact that she happened to think he was a certain Parker Johnson, but... No, not today.
As he entered the showers, he stripped without having to be told (being in the military had accustomed him to this sort of thing) and paced over to a random shower head. Considering he had first pick, he chose one that happened to be slightly removed from most of the others. Once again, not his usual behavior, but...
Cloud was dead. He felt like he was going to vomit, but he didn't exactly want to--he'd just eaten and he'd like to keep that food in his stomach to keep his strength up. Still, he'd broken them both out of there and dragged Cloud across two continents with the intent of making sure he was safe...
He wondered if this was how it had felt for Cloud, when he'd been shot down, killed right in front of him.
...At least he hadn't had to witness it.
Turning the water on hotter than was probably healthy, Zack began to scrub himself down. Hopefully one of the people he'd contacted - Vincent or Kadaj, since they would have to be male - would find him and he could actually talk to someone about the whole situation. Because internalizing wasn't doing him much good.

Soon enough it was time for them to shift back into the Cafeteria, and the redhead's stomach growled at the thought of real sandwiches being served. This lifted his mood so much that he couldn't help but smile brightly at the brooding man next to him despite his first impression.
"I guess I'll talk to you later." And with that Axel walked out to get dressed, unaware of the humiliation that was bound to ensue on his part.
