"Well maybe we can call one of those backwater places our new home." The words came out before he realized what he was saying. He could have meant it innocently though so he hoped Cloud wouldn't pick up on. Besides he had made a similar promise to his Cloud when they were on the run.

Zack's gonna count that as a win for him. CJ is basically just an abbreviation of Cloud Junior anyway. Regardless he thought it was cute that Cloud's first pokemon was a bird, it was so fitting that really it was just comedic.

He wrapped an arm around Cloud's back and pulled him closer. "Well I'm new here too so I don't know many places but I'm sure we can find something. I'm starving." He was being too touchy, he knew that but he couldn't help it. Last time he saw his cloud was when they were on the run for months and he hardly even said a few words let alone smiled. He missed his smiling best friend and he couldn't help but tease him. "Oh is this gonna be our first date?"
