You rocked slowly on your heels before sitting down on your bed and staring down at your feet. You had been in the shelter for almost a week already, and that had been quite good, you had gained some weight and your skin had tanned quite a bit, not to mention-

"Y/N-chan," cheery voice sounded from the door and you turned your head a bit, looking at Ace. "D'ya feel like going for a walk today?" It was his everyday routine, asking you out for a walk, but you declined every day, afraid that Luke would see and attack you.

"Not really," your voice was barely louder than a whisper.

"Please? Just around the corner is a café, you can get amazing pumpkin chocolate cake there." That got you thinking for a moment, because you really wanted to go outside. And that cake sounded good. "Please? Just for five minutes?" Ace kept asking, having already noticed your hesitation. You nodded slowly and fot up from the bed, following him outside while he babbled happily about some prank that had been pulled off on his bro.

"Oh here it is," he grinned at you and you shivered a bit from icy coldness of the winter. You hurried inside and were caught off guard by the Christmas decorations around it. "How d'ya like it?" Ace placed his hand on your waist to guide you few steps ahead and you tensed on the feeling of someone touching you. Thankfully he noticed his mistake and took a step away from you, apologising.

"No it's alright," you tried to smile, pretty sure that it looked terrible, with one of your scars ripping the corner of your mouth.

"Oh, I'm glad," he kept grinning as you sat down at a small table next to window, "and you should smile more, it makes you even prettier,"

"No it doesn't," you remembered what Luke had said about your smile, "my teeth are crooked and if I smile like that my nose looks flat,"

"Who told you-" he understood and frowned a bit "well, that's a pile of crap. You are beautiful and you should pretty damn right believe it," he grinned again at you and then turned towards the waitress who had came to your table. You tried to hesitantly curve your lips in a shy smile and blushed when he smiled at your way again.

Timrskip to the time they go home

"That was nice," Ace mumblef and yawned a bit.

"D-do you always fall asleep when you eat?" You asked carefully.

"Uh, sorry 'bout that, it just happens," he chuckled awkwardly and that made you smile a bit too. Then you shivered in cold and pushed your hands deeper into your coat pockets.

"Oh here, take those," Ace gave you a pair of gloves he had been wearing and you pulled them thankfully on, "maybe I should get you gloves for Christmas too,"

"You don't have to," you felt a little embarrased that you had to rely to other people in everything.

"But I want. By the way, your month will be up in three days, have you thought about what to do next?" A cold feeling sunk deep into your tummy on the reminder that someone needed your place im the shelter and you had to go back to real world, away from nice and protected one.

"Not really,"

"Maybe you can stay as a worker in the shelter, we could use another helper," he suggested.

"That would be nice,"

The end.

Okay, not really end, I'll give you the rest of the story too.

You talked to the manager of the shelter, who was more than happy to have some help around the place and you started working there. Ace was still your best friend and one day, when you were in the town you ran into Luke who wanted to attack you, and Ace protected you. That was really nice of him.

Few years later things were still the same until some party, where you both got drunk and he kissed you under the mistletoe.

A year later you got married.
