Zack Fair walked out of the hospital.
Cloud walked beside him, making sure his friend wouldn't stumble. The older of the two was much more healed, although he still had a few bandages keeping him together. He wasn't used to walking by himself again but he was determined and still strong in spirit. He beamed at the sight of the sunny sky.
"Oh..." He sighed in awe. "I don't know what I'd do without ya, blondie." He said.
Cloud laughed but jumped when Zack wrapped an arm around his neck and chest, pulling him close. His face reddened. "Ga- wha?" He stuttered, baffled. Zack smirked evilly and gave him a good noogie. "Gah..." Cloud groaned helplessly and grinned, relaxing slightly. "Gee. You sure know how to show your appreciation, Zack." He mumbled sarcastically.
Zack chuckled and released his victim before winking mischievously.
Cloud rolled his eyes playfully.
The two got to the bottom of the stairs, conversing and sharing jokes lightheartedly.
