Zero was now at the store with Scott and Stiles since neither of their clothes fit him, they decided he shouldn’t get his own.

“You can’t only get oversized sweaters! That defeats the purpose of getting new clothes!” Stiles said as Zero filled the cart with pastel colored sweaters, and jeans.

“I’ve never worn clothes before, and i like the oversized clothing so far.” Zero said pulling at the hoodie that belonged to Scott, and the jeans in which Scott had to cut extra holes in a belt to fit the boy.

“You won’t know if you like anything else, if you don’t try something new.” Scott said to Zero who shrugged his shoulder adding a plain white shirt into the cart.

“Wow that is such a huge difference, how are you paying for this stuff?” Stiles asked though he knew Scott and him would be the ones paying.

“Here.” Zero closed his fist and put it over stiles hand, opening his fast and a wad of money fell into Stiles hands. Stiles and Scott gaped at it.

“I’m pretty sure this is illegal.” Scott said looking at the money that looked and felt real.

“You don’t say.” Stiles replied sarcastically looking at the money weirdly. He was sure that Zero could pay for his college tuition.

“Are we going to use it?” Scott asked as Zero looked at more random shirts adding them inside the cart.

“We shouldn’t waste the money.” Stiles muttered as Scott nodded his head.

“Zero you need shoes.” Scott said looking at Zero, who was reluctant to put on shoes when Stiles first offered them to him.

“No, thank you.” Zero said looking down at the shoes he was wearing in distaste, he didn’t understand why someone would wear them willingly.

“That wasn’t a question.” Scott grumbled as Stiles pushed the cart to the directions of check out.

“Make it a question.” Zero demanded throwing a bunch of socks in the cart as Stiles grumbled something like ‘stupid tree magically makes money, and doesn’t buy me anything”

“Everyone wears shoes.” Scott assured Zero as the worker started scanning all the clothes.

“They should stop.” Zero said bending down to take off the shoe, which was just a pair of Scott’s old converse. They weren’t uncomfortable by any mean, he’d just rather be bare foot.

“No, Zero when we walk you’ll get your socks dirty.” Scott said as Zero gave him a questioning look.

“Carry me then.” Zero said as Stiles paid for the clothes eager to get out of the store.

“Shoes we need shoes.” Stiles said walking away leaving Scott and Zero to grab the bags.

“Never mind carrying me you look busy.” Zero said walking away with a small skip in step.

“Thanks for the help guys.” Scott groaned quickly scooping up the bags and going in the direction he saw Stiles and Zero go.

***
“Just converse?” Stiles asked as Zero handed multiple pairs of shoes to Scott. If he had to wear shoes, he would at least get the comfortable ones.

“They’re very comfortable.” Zero said putting a wad of money in Stiles hand. He didn’t understand why people didn’t make their own money, he didn’t understand why it existed in the first place, if so many people had money problems why not get rid of money in whole.

“Zero you can’t keep creating money.” Scott said not liking the power the boy had to just make something that was worth so much. Zero clearly didn’t understand that magically making money appear was illegal.

“Why?” Zero asked taking the shoes from Scott hand and walking towards the check out. Scott followed grabbing the rest of the bags they got earlier.

“Because it’s illegal.” Stiles whispered as the worker started scanning the shoes, she clearly looked bored and ready to leave the mall.

“That’s not my fault.” Zero said as Sties paid with the money. The worker not questioning the money given to her.

“We know that, but your a human now. I mean not really human. I don’t know what you are, but you look human enough.” Stiles ranted as he and Zero left the stores leaving Scott to again carry the bags.

“Why do i have to be here?” Zero asked as they continued to walk out the mall. Scott following behind stumbling every once in a while due to his vision being blocked by the boxes he carried.

“Do you want to go back into the dirt?” Stiles asked giving Zero a glare.

“Yes.” Zero admitted as he Scott put all of the bags into the trunk of the car. Scott wasn’t really paying attention to the conversation, because he knew Stiles wouldn’t let Zero go back.

“Good, because i will drag your little ass into the woods and bury you myself.” Stiles said as Zero got into the back of the car, Scott getting into the passenger side.

“No he won’t.” Scott said as Zero nodded leaning forward to touch the radio, but Stiles smacked his hand away.

“Stiles.” Scott gave his best friend a look, Stiles gave one right back. Zero sat in the back of the car oblivious to the silent argument. Stiles kissed his teeth starting the car.

“Aren’t we getting a tattoo later?” Zero asked as Scott sighed as he had explained this to Zero multiple times.

“I’m getting a tattoo, and you guys are their for support.” Scott said as Zero smiled at him.

“Can i get one?” Zero asked as Scott shook his head.

“Not today.” Scott said as Zero nodded looking at the night sky, he didn’t realize they had spent so much time in the store.

“When are we going to get our tattoo?” Zero asked as Scott laughed.

“After we drop the bags at my house.” Scott said and Zero nodded going back to look out the window.

“Where did Zero sleep last night?” Stiles asked Scott in a hushed tone. Scott gave his best friend a confused look.

“In the guest room.” Scott said as if it was obvious, though Stiles quirked an eyebrow he could always tell when his best friend lied.

“Zero where did you sleep last night?” Stiles asked as Scott sent Zero an alarmed look.

“Zero where did you sleep last night?” Stiles asked looking threw the rear view mirror.

“In Scott’s bed! I didn’t want him to have any nightmares.” Zero said completely remembering the night before.

They had just walked into Scott’s house and Scott said that his mom was at work. He lead Zero upstairs to the guest room.

“Why am i sleeping here?” Zero asked as Scott gave him a confused look.

“This is the guest room.” Scott said as Zero shook his head.

“Don’t you have nightmares? Aren’t i supposed to sleep with you?” Zero probed exiting the room and going to where he felt Scott present greatest in.

“No i don’t think i’ll have any nightmares tonight.” Scott tried, but Zero gave him a look that showed he didn’t believe him.

“I said i would help you friend Scott.” Zero muttered walking over to Scott dresser and starting to go threw it. A couple socks dropped out and a box of condoms.

“Oh my god Zero, that is not the pajama drawer.” Score quickly pulled Zero away from the dresser and shoved the condoms and socks back in.

“Here.” Scott handed Zero a pair of joggers and a shirt. Zero sat down the joggers as Scott gave him a confused look. Something he seemed to be doing a lot with Zero around. Zero started pulling his shirt off as Scott turned around with wide eyes.

“Dude i get we’re both dudes, but you don’t look very dude-ish.” Scott said speaking of the fact that Zero had ‘girl-ish’ features. Zero continued to take off his shirt and putting on Scott’s dropping out his pants, leaving him in just the oversized shirt.

“What’re you talking about?” Zero asked tapping Scott on the shoulder so he could turn around. Scott ear tinged pink as he realized Zero was just in his shirt.

“Nothing go get some water.” Scott said as Zero nodded deciding that if water helped Scott then he will get it. As soon as Zero left Scott himself got ready. Getting dressed in black joggers and a gray shirt.

“I put lemon in it.” Zero said coming into the room with a smile. Scott was sure they didn’t have any Lemons, so Scott assumed he made them himself.

“Thanks Zero.” Scott smiled going to his bathroom to brush his teeth. Zero got into Scott’s bed trying to find a comfortable position.

“Can’t get comfortable?” Scott asked walking into the room.

“I’ve never slept in a bed before, but i know what they’re used for.” Zero said as Scott climbed in the other side of the bed.

“How do you know what everything means? You seem really smart, but still kinda innocent.” Scott whispered as Zero gave him a confused look.

“I don’t really know the answer to that. I was born a couple days ago as a flower. That how Stiles found me, I asked him for help getting out of the ground. He brought me to his house and now here we are.” Zero explained as Scott gave him a confused look.

“You were born a couple days ago?” Scott asked confused on the maturity level of the boy.

“Yeah.” Zero said as a vine climbed up the wall and turned off the light. Scott watched as Zero buried his body under the cover, still flipping around to find a comfortable spot.

“You’ll sleep better if you stop moving.” Scott said not being able to sleep when an arm was constantly hitting him in the chest.

“I don’t necessarily need sleep, but i will for moral support.” Zero said scooting closer to Scott. Scott inhaled sharply instantly regretting when the smell of strawberries floated up his nose.

“You smell like strawberries.” Scott whispered tilting his head more so he could get a better smell.

“Is this helping you sleep?” Zero asked as watching Scott take giant sniffs of the air.

“Mm yeah.” Scott whispered as Zero smiled throwing his arm around Scott’s waist.

“Now you’ll sleep better.” Zero said as Scott froze not expecting the boy to completely throw himself at him.

“Goodnight.” Scott whispered not bothering to move Zero from his arms, he was rather comfortable.

“Goodnight Scott.” Zero murmured closing his eyes both bothering to say anything about how Scott smelled like vanilla.

“Yep that’s what happened.” Zero said as Stiles stared wide eyed at his best friend.

“And you thought i was gay.” Stiles said earning a slap in the chest from Scott.
