Frankly, I never got the whole Cam/Zack thing (well, I got it based on the somewhat pathological need for everyone on the show to be pairedupomg kind of way that fandom operates, but, you know) and the minute Cam said that I was kind of 'wha?' because it seemed a kind of odd thing to say and also I was thinking 'oh dear, I can just imagine the fanfic this will spawn' but this is totally awesome. I think your characterisation is spot on, particularly here --
Cam looks at him thoughtfully, straight in the eye, because that's how he operates. "That was rather chaste."
"You're my boss, Dr. Saroyan."
"Technically, Dr. Brennan's your boss."
"But you're her boss, so by process of-"
"Yes, I get it Zack." She sighs; it's because this is a fucking complicated situation.
Reaching out for his tie, she loosens it slightly, then pulls him towards her with it. He gets the point and covers her lips with his. Good boy.
I can totally picture this happening, as much as that freaks me out a little. I loved the sustained metaphor of Zack as a puppy, and Cam leading him along with the good dog, have a biscuit because omg yes, he so is and she so is and I think I will end this here because it's after midnight and I've just finished writing two end of semester essays and I've run out of coherency and it's pretty much my bed time.
