Quiet: Seph and Zack are so precious together.
Sephiroth/Zack
A long night at the office.
Sephiroth finally sat back in his chair, his weary sigh echoing in the silence of the office. He'd finally got that damnable paperwork out of the way, and he was going to bed now, no exceptions.
Something about the silence struck him as odd then, and he rubbed his aching temples in an attempt to soothe them.
Where was Zack?
He hadn't heard a peep out of his Second after he'd told the man to leave him be hours ago. Usually, the foolish man would ignore his orders and come bother him anyway, but the mission Zack had returned from had required him to stay up for nearly six days in a row, and even a First Class had to sleep sometime.
Curious, Sephiroth gathered his possessions and went to the adjoining office that Zack called his own, curious to see if Zack was actually getting any work done.
He peeked around the doorway and found an involuntary smile tugging at his lips.
Zack lay sprawled on his ridiculously patterned office sofa, his feet propped on top of a box full of office supplies. Sephiroth felt his lips twitch again and lightly tread to stand over his Second, heavily debating whether or not to wake the man; he seemed peaceful enough, and he was oddly reluctant to disturb that soft look of innocence and peace on the boy's face.
The decision was taken out of his hands, however, when bright blue eyes slid open, and Zack sleepily blinked at him. "Timezit, Seph?" he slurred, sitting up and rubbing at his eyes.
"I believe it's bedtime," Sephiroth said gently.
Zack gave a light grin and yawned wide enough that his popping jaw was clearly audible. "Yeah, I was waiting for you," he said.
"I know," Sephiroth replied, eyes warm as he opened the office door. "You always do."
