[Cloud's outside, doing what he does best. Brooding.

He'll be out and around town after brooding in the hammock in front of House 50 for a while. Stop at your own risk.]

It's been known to happen.

... [PERFORMANCE ANXIETY.]

[wingenvy]

[Oh c'mere. Kiss. As if the noises they were making weren't feedback enough.]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[R-right, kissing back. Just...kissing. And messing around.]

[wingenvy]

[Good. Behave yourself and don't get antsy. This is the fun part.]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud's hands move down along Zack's waist, but as soon as his fingers brush against the waistband of his pants he-

Sk-skitters away, and just rubs his hands back up. What.]

[wingenvy]

[....oh, you. Stifling a laugh now.]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Nip. What're you laughing at, eh.]

[wingenvy]

[FFFFF that tickles, don't do that.]

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Exasperated, Cloud pushes himself up, folding his arms and sitting on Zack's thighs.] Would you stop laughing at me?

[wingenvy]

[Fff. You pouting kid.] S-sorry... I can't help it. You're just so...

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Not pouting.] ...So what?

[wingenvy]

[Definitely pouting.] ...so... egotistical.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

I-I'm not egotistical!

[wingenvy]

Yeah, you are. You've never done this before but you think you're 'all that', so you get pushy until it's time to move forward, and then you back off because you're not ready.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Silent.

Well. Somebody's got his number.]

[wingenvy]

[Ayup.] Sorry, Spike. It's not a bad thing - kinda part of who you are - but you're not fooling anyone.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud shifts awkwardly. He's not quite sure what to say in response to that.]

[wingenvy]

... [Sigh. Zack grabs him and tugs Cloud's head against his chest.] You need to relax. This isn't a test.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud actually rolls off of Zack and lays beside him instead. This...actually makes him feel a lot more relaxed, and he sighs.] I just...

I don't wanna screw this up. I- [He flushes. Ffff this is so hard to TALK about.] Well, I figured my first time would be with a girl...who would be about as experienced as I am. So...I mean, I never really thought it'd be you. [That's about as close to "I'm vaguely intimidated" as he's going to get.]

[wingenvy]

[That makes things easier, actually, so Zack turns a bit on his side to face him more easily.]

So now that it is me, you're scared of... what, disappointing me?

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[F-fffff.] ...well it would kind of suck if- ...I mean, the guy doing the...work...um... [No, that's not right. Let's try this again.

...C'mon Cloud, you're both adults. You can talk about this kind of thing, even if it sounds corny or dumb or whatever.] I...I just...I want this to be good for you too. ...y'know.

[wingenvy]

[Hair ruffle.] If I didn't think you could do this, Spike, I wouldn't let you.

[herobydefault.livejournal.com]

[Cloud rolls onto his side to face Zack, still feeling kind of awkward, but lifts a hand and just kind of...rubs Zack's stomach. Maybe if he touches him more, he'll get more used to it.]

...um...is there...something specific I should do? Like... [God this is really embarrassing.] ...y'know. Stuff you like?

[wingenvy]

[Zack closes his eyes briefly, smiling a little at the touch. Cloud's slowly getting more comfortable with it. They can manage this.] Well... you were doing pretty good work with my neck, earlier. Oh, and here- [He catches Cloud's hand at his stomach, right at the very base of it.] It's sensitive.
