Happy birthday, RainbowSerenity! I hope you have a wonderful day with lots of family and friends, presents and pie, and slash. Lots of slash. ;D

RS and everyone else, enjoy this little drabble I wrote during the most boring lecture ever :)

"Aww, come on!"

"Zack!"

"Pretty please?"

"No!"

"For me?"

Sky blue eyes glared into hopeful blue greens.

"Aww, don't look at me like that, Spike! You know, it only makes you look cuter."

"It does not!" Cloud cried. Mumbling, he added, "…I'm not cute".

Zack couldn't help but chuckle. His boyfriend really had no idea. Now if only Zack could convince him to put on his souvenir. It was of the finest Wutaian silk, and Zack had had to charm that woman into selling it to him like he had never charmed anyone! …Well, except maybe Cloud himself.

"But you'd look so sexy in this!"

"…How?!"

Cloud did not like the lecherous look on Zack's face at that. This could only mean trouble. So when Zack took a step forward, Cloud instinctively took a step back.

"Well, for starters, it would really flatter your legs."

Step forward – step back.

"Also, the color clashes with your eyes, which would make those really stand out."

Step – step.

"Of course, I'd get a great view of your delicious little butt."

Blush. Step – ste—bonk.

Bingo. The chocobo was cornered.

Zack put his left hand against the wall next to Cloud's head, his right resting casually on his hip, concealing his 'gift' from view. He lowered his head until his and Cloud's noses touched, observing Cloud's blush with amusement and mild arousal. His poor baby looked so trapped. Heh, just how he liked it.

"Don't you like it when you get me all hot and bothered?"

Before Cloud could answer, however, Zack had caught his lips in a fierce kiss which made his knees wobble. Unable to help himself, Cloud reached up and wound his arms around Zack's neck.

When they broke apart, Zack hadn't moved from his nonchalant pose and his smirk was still in place.

"So…"

He slowly lifted his right hand, revealing the bright pink thong dangling from his fingers.

"Won't you put it on?" he asked with a small pout.

The color of Cloud's cheeks almost matched that of the thong. Hesitantly, he raised his hand and then snatched the garment from Zack with a frown.

"Just this once," he glared.

By the end of the night, Cloud resolved to not throw away that thong just yet.
