Snazzy knocks at the door of the AfterDeath's home. He just took Xahji to her house. He noticed that along the way, she was clinging to him like she's pasted to him with a super glue. She won't even let go.

A few moments later, a very worried Geno opened the door.

"Xahji! My angel! I'm glad you are safe!" Geno rushed to hug his daughter but she just hid behind Snazzy. Her grip on his arm got tighter. This made Geno stop in his tracks.

"Xahji? It's just me... Your dad? Geno? Don't you recognize me?" He is slowly going to Xahji.

"Xahji.... You need to go to your dad. You need to go home...." Snazzy said, concern laced in his voice.

Xahji whimpered just clinged to him more.

"Xahji...." Snazzy said, almost like a kid whining. ALMOST.

Geno sighed. "Thanks for bringing her home, anyways. We were really worried."

"No problem, Mr. Geno. Just did what is right."

Geno nodded."I need to know the whole story. Come in."

"Thanks, Mr. Geno." He entered the house with Xahji tailing behind him. He entered the house and was amazed at the flowers that are in different vases.

"Sit down on the couch as I get us snacks. Do you want anything, Sweetie?" Geno asked Xahji but she just shook her head.

"Keep my daughter company, will you?"

"Of course." As Snazzy waited, Xahji won't let him go and just leans on Snazzy all the time. "Xahji, you would need to let go of me sooner or later."

She just shook her head. "No."

Snazzy just sighed at that.

Just then, Reaper and Goth entered the house. "Xahji! I thought we lost you!"

Reaper rushed to Xahji and stopped when he saw Snazzy. "Oh. It appears we have a guest. Are you Xahji's friend?"

Friend? How could they be friends if the most times they meet is they just fight.

"And by the way I see her lean to you, I can say that you are more than that." Snazzy blushed at that statement. "Are you her boyfriend?" He was definitely NOT expecting that question.

"I- I uhmm... Uh.... I'm no-"

"So you are dating my sister now, huh?" Goth cut him off before he could even say a full sentence.

"No! You got it all wrong! I'm not he-"

"It's ready!"

Geno cut him off and presented a bowl of cookies.

"Here. I thought it would be a good way to relax by eating cookies. And it seems that my Husband and son have arrived. Huh? Why are you blushing?" He just doesn't know what to say to them.

"Dad, it seems like he is my sister's boyfriend."

"Uh-huh! Just look at the way our daughter clings to him."

"I knew it! I had my suspicion the moment I saw you two at my front door."

"Please, let's just change the subject? We need to think about Xahji here."

The room suddenly fell silent.

"Yeah... What happened anyways? We couldn't reach her a while ago."

"Dad called me when he said that it's been 1 and a half hour since her cerfew. We tried to call her but she didn't answer so we decided to go to the police to report."

"She dropped her phone when I bumped into her at the store. That is why you can't reach her. Her phone died." He handed over a blue phone with a pink casing. "I was going to your house when I heard her scream in one of the alleys."

~FLASHBACK~

"Ugh... Which way do I have to go again?" Snazzy was lost at a district. It was already late at night. He decided to call his brother again to make sure.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

"Swifty, bro, where that 'Saki' girl's house again?"

"I told you, it's Xahji! Not Magi, not Mary, Not Sally, not Saki and definitely not Tori! It's Xahji! Where do you get these names anyways?"

"Gee, sorry bro. Anyways, where is her house?"

"What street are you in?"

"The Dreemurr street."

"You're getting close. Just go ahead and turn left. You will reach two intersections. Turn right on the second one. You should see a house with a blue roof and white walls. That's her house."

"Thanks bro."

"No problem."

Click.

"Wow. Her house is far." He said monotonely. He put his hands in the pockets of his hoodie. He is definitely aware of the phone in his pocket. That's the one of the reasons why he is going there in the first place. Another is that his brother insisted him to go there too. And he knows deep inside that he was just looking for a reason to see her- her HOUSE. A blush crept on his cheeks as he stomped-walked.

"ANYONE, PLEASE HELP!"

A scream took his notice.

"That sounded like.... Oh no...."

He quickly ran to the direction that he heard the scream from. He ran as fast as he could to her location.

"SNAZZY!!! HELP ME!!!"

He slowed down and stopped at a narrow alleyway. There, he saw Xahji being undressed by this guy. Xahji was trying to push him away, tears going down her face.

Snazzy's thought suddenly went blank as he rushed to punch that guy in the face.

"S-snazzy?" He turned to look at Xahji, her shirt, a little torn, therefore showing her collarbone and shoulder joints. Snazzy would have blushed brightly if Xahji's face wasn't stained with tears.

"Xahji....." He kneeled down in front of Xahji. How could that guy just DO THIS to her?!?! He went to comfort Xahji. It's ok. I'm here for you."

"S-snazzy... I... I-I was....." He expected her to cry more but he didn't expect the hug. She was just crying there, in his arms. He blushed at this. He felt bad of thinking of pushing her away so instead, he just hugged her tightly. His own tears starting to go down too. How dare he try to defile Xahji! He will soon pay for this.

~FLASHBACK END~

"So I comforted her and lead her here to her house. After that she won't let go of me." Snazzy said with a small blush on his face.

"Oh... My poor darling!" Geno said with worry and sadness.

"Who is the fucker who tried to rape my sister?! I'm so gonna kill him!" Snazzy flinched at Goth's tone. He never knew Goth could be so terrifying.

"Goth, Language!" Reaper scolded him.

"Sorry, mom."

"At least we know that Xahji is safe. Right, Reaper?"

"Uh-huh."

"So..... Uh... Since Xahji is back home, can I go home now?" Snazzy asked a bit shyly.

"Of course! We wilk handle everything from here." Reaper said.

"Thank you for the snack by the way."

"It's nothing. Come by again, sometime!"

Snazzy stood up and was ready to leave when Xahji ubruptly pulled him back on the couch.

"Xahji! I have to go! Siren will look for me soon!" Xahji just shook her head.

"Don't leave me here!" Xahji hugged Snazzy and buried her face to his chest. This made Snazzy blush.

"It seems that she doesn't want you to go home." Reaper said, a hand under his chin.

"Would you like to stay here for the night? It would also be a great time to comfort your girlfriend." Goth smirks teasingly.

"Uh.... But... I don't have any clothes... Plus, I don't have a place to sleep." Snazzy is blushing now.

"I think Reaper could spare you some clothes." Geno said.

"I have plenty." Reaper agreed with his husband.

"And I'm sleeping here to make sure Xahji will be fine tomorrow so think you should sleep with Xahji in her room since she is your girl friend and all. Plus, she seems like she doesn't want you out of her sight." Goth smiles.

If Snazzy could blush more, he would. When will they drop the girlfriend thing?

"So, will you sleep here?" Reaper asked him. He doesn't really know what to say. Xahji won't let him go, and her family is expecting him to sleep here. Plus, they think that he is her boy friend. I guess he will have to do it.

"O-okay... I'll just inform my brothers..." Snazzy hesitantly took out his phone to call his brother. Guess there is no turning back now.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Swifty?"

"Yeah?"

"I'm staying at Xahji's tonight."
