"Both?" Before she can stop herself she says the word aloud and then looks away from him to try and process what he's telling her. Suddenly her coffee is the most interesting thing for her as she gazes at it. So Cloud really did like Aerith. She can't fault him for it. Aerith is a breath of fresh air, she is sweet and kind and Tifa thought she was pretty funny too. They had all just only met but it was like they had always known each other. They were instantly friends and it was nice to have another woman on the team. She had thought something was up back in the sewers after Don Corneo's. When Cloud went to help her up she had seen something there but wondered if it was her imagination. Her intuition was right and she was truly happy for them both but now she'd be the third wheel. She was just starting to like having Aerith around and hoped that friendship wouldn't be awkward now.
As for Zack she was having a hard time remembering why that name was familiar. She hadn't meet many SOLDIER in her life outside of Midgar and even then Cloud said it was during his days in the program so it had to be before Midgar. There had only been one she remembered. His face was a bit blurry in her memories but she remembered he was tall and had dark hair. He'd been in that village and failed to protect anyone. Cloud wouldn't date him...would he?
She could feel his eyes on her and she broke her concentration on her cup to meet his gaze. Her smile slipped back on, genuinely looking happy for him. "As long as they make you happy I'm glad. I don't really remember a Zack Fair though....sorry Cloud."
