"Lemme smash."
During my Tech School, my best friend was a married woman. It won't be awkward, unless you make it awkward.
Trying to steal someone's girlfriend is scummy, to be honest. Do you want to be just friends, or do you want to be more? If you want to be more, then I would cancel. You'll just be hurting yourself in the long run.
EDIT: Or just use it as experience like others are saying.

It's only awkward if you make it awkward.
Go anyway. Talk to her about women. This'll be a great opportunity to learn more.

You should probably go as a friend, as to not make it seem like you're only interested in her as a romantic option and more as a person. That way if she breaks up with her boyfriend at any point you'll still be around and have been a consistent friend.
Go as a friend, that way she doesn't see you as one of those guys who only want the tail.
It could be a good time and you can get more info on how to approach other girls in the future.

Yep. Take it as an opportunity to build your friendship.

What internet hole do I put them into?
If you actually like her as a friend and can have fun definitely go for it.
Stay a close friend. Act like you have embraced the friend zone, but in reality, you are just waiting until the second the two break up. Then you BREAK THE CHAINS THAT BIND YOU AND DRILL THROUGH THE HEAVENS THAT IS HER VAGINA BY BECOMING HER BOYFRIEND!
BELIEVE IN THE ME THAT BELIEVES IN YOU.

Well, I would suggest signing up to a few sites and write some stuff for them. Just to get an understand and where your writing is at.
Reading helps a lot too, published stuff mostly. It helps you with grammar and prose. Is it too boggy or not enough.
Scribophile is pretty good, even though I didn't like the layout out too much.

Truly the definition of a FrienderNice knowing your dating life, friender.
Don't do that, that's kinda creepy.
If you like her then be friends but I wouldn't stick around in the hopes that they break up and she'll fall into your arms. They might be the two best people for each other, you don't know so don't just stick around just for that.

I meant that I need an idea and structure on how to write prose.
When I've written essays and passed writing exams, everything was based on an underlying argument or premise.
Writing prose is wholly different.

Yeah you are right. But staying friends just because you like to hang out with her works. And if later on down the line the two break up, you can always jump in if she allows you to.
Just make sure it isn't because she needs to fill the void.
That means two things 
Well, that isn't something that really is a layout for. Sure there are common rules and laws in writing you should break and what not. But when it come down to prose it depends on both the reader and writer.
As long as the reader knows where a scene takes place and who is talking during said scene then its fine. From there it's up to you to know how to write it, what kind of prose you want to use, how much detail and length each scene has and the amount of dialog tags.
I simple structure, of a beginning, middle and end is usually required and I recommend that if you are writing your first story. Try to keep your first rather simple and not too complex. First or Third person limited, with some flavor sprinkled around.

No, that's the best place to be.
I bet Woolie has been friend zoned before while being inside of his hole.
Can you imagine the pain and suffering?
