so, for once, I'm actually early instead of late about this but tomorrow's going to be crazy for me and I didn't want to miss wishing stairstothe7th  a happy birthday!!  So - happy birthday, my sweet and precious friend.  I hope you like the gift.  I thought you need more Zack.

Summary: a 200 word drabble prompted by the word 'awkward'.  And let me tell you - it was supposed to be 100 words.  See how bad I am? lol

"She's hot!"

“Zack… shut up.”

“No, man.  I mean like hot.”

“Zack – “

“Dude, pull your head outta that manual and smile at her when she comes over.  She’s  – bombshell hot.  … yowzah hot.   ‘If I wasn’t already taken I’d – “

“Zack!”

Zack relented but only with a reproachful look at his friend whose spiky head still hadn’t risen above his book to gape at the stunning waitress taking care of their section of the café.

“I’m tellin’ you, man…” he murmured through half closed lips as she swung over toward them, giving him a glorious view of just how nice those uniform shirts could look on the right figured girl.  Sure, he was happily taken but a guy had to notice someone like that.

Except for Cloud apparently, who only shifted his empty coffee mug from the inside of his book and held it absently near the edge of the table.

“Smoooo – kiiin.”

“Zack.”

“Hi!”  There she was with a smile, practically glowing with the happiest eyes Zack had probably ever seen… seconds before she bent down and planted a generous kiss on the lips of the blond, navigating the book as if it were second nature.  A kiss which, to Zack’s astonishment, Cloud returned and didn’t exactly rush through either.  If blue eyes could smirk, the blond’s were as Cloud finally came up for air and gave the man sitting across from him a lazy smile over the top of the book.

“Zack.  This is Tifa.  My girlfriend.”

Zack, gotta love Zack - but I do enjoy seeing Cloud come out on top. Especially since you know from this point on all he's going to have to do is smirk for Zack to know what he's thinking of.
