Zell....[How Seifer could ever turn down Zell for anything would seem impossible for Squall to comprehend. He can hardly say no or give him bad news either when he's looking like he is now and those words are so genuine and sweet too.]

Seifer loves you and I'd bet my triple triad collection on that. He's not going to let you go. You won't lose him Zell, I can promise you it. In fact it's a guarantee.

[Squall wraps an arm around Zell's waist, not fully encircling him since Zell is a built yet compact man.] No worries Zell, I'm glad I could help somehow and I'll be here when you do talk to him in case you need back up or just want someone there who has your back. I don't want to lose either of you two either and I won't push you both away this time. I'm not going to do that ever again.

Your Triple Triad collection, huh? [Zell cracks a grin up at him.] You must really mean it.

[It feels good, being held by Squall like this, and Zell finally leans against him fully, resting his head against the other man's shoulder. He really does feel better - both reassured that things will work out okay in the end, and like he has something concrete he can do to make things better, And, of course, he's got Squall at his back.

At his side, too. Quite literally, at the moment. And, as Zell's worries about Seifer ease...he's starting to take a lot more notice of the guy he's currently with. Specifically that boy the shoulder under his head is big and broad. Squall's really filled out in those years he missed.

In short, it's starting to treacle-drip its way into Zell's head that he's with a hot guy he likes and is dating who's being very sweet to him, and he's no longer so preoccupied with his issues with a different guy to shield him from being affected by it.]

I mean...you're not gonna lose us, either. We're not going anywhere. Even if you do try to push us away. We're too stubborn to go.

Of course I mean it. I'm not going to lie to you about something this important.

[Squall's own eyes close as he leans more against Zell, just enjoying the time together. His hand goes over to Zell's and he entwins their fingers, just a slight touch at the moment. He still doesn't want to push his luck with Zell but he does want to be close to him. They are boyfriends aren't they? He is allowed a little bit of touch.]

I'll remember that and try not to be too difficult for you both but...no promises right now. Sometimes I don't even realize how stubborn I am.

I know, I know. I was just teasing you about how serious you are about your cards. [Zell grins at him.

And then Squall...laces their fingers together, and Zell starts to blush. It's so...tender of a gesture. He feels like he's still not used to this new Squall, in how he's always surprising him...but the surprises are always good ones, so it's not like he's complaining. More like...it's because this Squall is always pleasantly surprising him that he wants to get to know him better. Maybe to the point where he's not surprised by him at all anymore.

He looks at Squall, who's got his eyes closed right now. And...shit. It's tempting...and they are dating, right? So maybe it's stupid to get hung up on worrying about it, because it's the kind of thing boyfriends do, isn't it? So he just...does it.

He leans up and kisses Squall, lightly, on the side of the mouth. He pulls back pretty quickly, his face on fire.]

[Just being next to Zell and feeling him against his shoulder is enough to make Squall feel pretty nice. It's rough sometimes and having someone he can just relax with and cuddle is nice. He has others for it as well but Zell is different, he was always a ball of sunshine and so energetic that seeing him more calm and relaxed is really refreshing.

With how Zen Squall is, he doesn't expect the kiss and at first doesn't react, taking a moment to even realize it happened and when he does his eyes open and his hand instinctively reached for the spot Zell kissed him at, a feint pinkness to his own cheeks.]

Zell?

[He looks over at him and notices the way Zell is much more red and embarrassed and so he does what he think might take the shyness away from them both and leans in to kiss the tip of Zell's nose. Is it going to help? No, probably not.]
