Finding an airship to Alexandria hadn't been super hard. Anyway, Zack would have walked there on foot if he'd had to. Right before he'd gotten here, he'd been taking Cloud to Midgar so he could - kinda selfishly - find Aerith and grant her wish. He still had the note in his pocket, even now! No way was he going to forget.
She'd looked different, too, but he hadn't let it get to him. Tifa was from the future. Hopefully Aerith wasn't, because man, that would be weird! And he'd feel like he'd let her down, and he didn't want to do that...
He shook the thoughts out of his head. The airship ride felt like it lasted basically a zillion years, and he was antsy.
FINALLY he arrived in Alexandria. He asked several times for directions to a church. She'd said she was going to wander around, but he had to start somewhere. People were a little weird about it, and he heard someone whisper something about "sky people" again, but he paid them no mind.
Finally, in the midst of several shops, he saw her. He recognized the ribbon he'd given her. Wow! She was really still wearing it! That made him pretty happy, and he all but floated through the crowd towards her. When he reached her he tapped her on the shoulder.
"Have time to miss me yet?" he asked, grinning as wide and convincingly as he could manage.
SO LATE I AM SORRY
