Jack sat down on a cushy bench with a loud sigh happy to be out of the heat. A Chancey came over with a cart. Jack encouraged her Pokemon to hop on. Blush looked at her nervously. "You'll be fine Blush they just want to heal you."
Crimson picked up the Oddish and hopped up. "You take care of each other now."

Edric sunk down into the bench, never remembering feeling more thankful for the red, cushioned benches of a pokecenter he previously thought of as the most uncomfortable bench in the world. He carefully too Shroom from Meema's arms and placed him on the cart next to Jack's pokemon, then released his new Chimchar.
"Watch out for her ok?" He gave Shroom a small smile. "She's new."
The Chimchar cocked her head sleepily, seeming to be a bit dazed as to what was going on. The Chansey gave both breeders a comforting nod and then began to wheel away the pokemon.
Edric flopped his head down on the top of the bench. "Well this is proving to be different then I thought." He thought aloud.

"Yeah it is. for one thing we are actually getting along." Jack chuckled. "I wounder where Crescendo went."
She looked around and shrugged. "Oh well, I'm sure we'll run into him soon enough."
Jack looked around the room and spotted the phones. She debated a moment then decided against calling home at the moment. "If Cress isn't back soon maybe we should go to the Gym and see how he's doing? When should we head over?" She suggested as she cuddled her egg.

Edric couldn't help but chuckle bit, pushing his glasses back into place at Jack's first comment, agree with her. They were getting along fairly well for the time being, despite their very rough start. He hoped that things would stay that way and tempers would remain in check. Edric wasn't too good at the whole friend thing, so he was fairly pleased that he hadn't chased Jack, or Crescendo for that matter, away.
As he watched Jack's eyes wander to the phones, he wondered if she wanted to call home, to talk to those brothers she had talked so much about. He scoffed, then quickly clamped his mouth shut, surprised he had actually made a noise aloud. He hadn't meant too. But the idea of calling home had triggered some sort of negative response in Edric. Now way in hell he was going to even consider picking up the phone.
Realizing Jack was talking to him, Edric snapped back to attention, quickly trying to tune in to what she was saying. "Yeah," he nodded. "Sounds like a plan to me."

Jack snorted. "You weren't paying attention. I said 'when' not if we should. So when?"
As she waited for an answer her gaze once again landed on the phones. Was her family missing her? Would they be impressed that she had three Pokemon now? We're they taking care of her baby Shroomish? She really wanted to see how her Pokemon was doing without her. He was her first Pokemon that was solely hers. Should she call? she had the rest of the day...

Edric scowled and blushed lightly in embarrassment when Jack corrected him. He responded by crossing his arms and huffing a bit. "I'm game for whatever," he muttered. "We need to wait for out pokemon though."
He noticed Jack's eyes trail again to the phones, which obviously meant she was still thinking about calling someone. If she was still contemplating, it probably meant she should.
Using little energy, Edric pointed to the phone. "You want to call someone?" He questioned, tuning his voice down to sound inquisitive more then anything else. "We've got loads of time," he added, trying to be polite.

Jack bounced off to the phones. She dialed the oh so familiar number home. The Video screen lit up to show a confused Shroomish. "Mishy are you playing with the phone again?"
The Shroomish looked at the phone than grinned and jumped at the screen like he expected her to catch him. He bounced off and tumbled to the floor where he started to cry. James heard the commotion and came to the phone. "What did you do this time?" he asked Mishy.
"He tried to jump into my arms." Jack answered and enjoyed the jump that James did when he heard her voice.
"Hey everyone Jack's on the phone!" Soon the whole family was shoving to get a look making Jack laugh in delight.

Edric sighed and sunk lower into the couch's cushions as Jack nearly leaped from her seat, trying to drift off for a bit. He needed to do something to pass the time. He might have been able to do so if the loud thud, followed by a wail, came from Jack's call. Edric had bolted up in surprise at the noise and was now curiously glancing over at her video call from time to time. From what he could make out, she had a large family, and a caring one at that. Sighing again, Edric flopped back against the couch with a slam. He shoved his hands into his pant pockets, hoping the gesture might push away whatever emotional disturbance was beginning to bubble up in him.
