Okay, so maybe that wasn't the usual term for that sort of thing, but he thought it was cute nonetheless. He laughed, shrugging helplessly. "Nah. You're not that much shorter than me, anyway. I don't know, I thought it would be adorable, koala hugs."

Cute. Much like the thought of suddenly sweeping her off of her feet and having sweet little moments just like this.

Back to the matter at hand - yes, his fridge was pitiful. Yes, he felt quite a bit of shame in not having it at least a little more stocked. He'd ensure that it would never be so bare again.

"Sushi, I think. I know a place that does a two-for-one special over the weekends. And I also happen to know that their tuna is to die for. That's definitely what I'm casting my vote for."

They've both sort of ... fallen into an unexpected relationship, but the truth of the matter was that he couldn't quite imagine going back to the life he was living before her. If this was to continue, and he hoped that it would, and for a long time to come, they'd have to find a conscious way to make it work. And he was absolutely adamant upon doing just that.

Rey was still looking at him, almost with a critical eye for calling out how short she was, but it gave way to a smile. Yes, she knew she was short, but at least she wasn't as short as some of the other women in her department. If anything she was of average height, but regardless...calling a koala hug was pretty hug.

"It does sound pretty cute..suppose we could test the term out," a little more teasing, a little more playfulness.

As for sushi, that was fine with her. Better than eating ramen, or trying to make something from his fridge. If he had anything else in his cupboards, she didn't know nor did she want to know. Some time this week she would have to take him out grocery shopping and make sure he could survive on his own...and not just on take out.

"Sure, that sounds fine. Do you want to place the order for it? I'm good with anything." Really, she wasn't picky. He could pick whatever he wanted for her and she'd be fine with it.

They were easily falling into a rhythm or routine with one another in his home. The idea of sharing a space with him..living with him, was starting to become a real possibility. Granted, it would take time to actually living together and they may have spats here and there, but they would work through them. Both of them wanted to keep the relationship going.

She wasn't that much shorter than him - a handful of inches, all said. And Miles was more than grateful of the fact that he didn't have to bend over far enough that sharing kisses hurt his back. That was very important, after all.

"Sounds like a plan", he answered, and it was sort of a nice little distraction from everything else they were testing out, too. Or, maybe it made it all the easier to know that this sort of banter was always going to be a part of their relationship, even if they found themselves sharing the same space more often.

Finding his fridge in such a state was highly embarrassing - Miles can cook, had been cooking for a long time, and usually had a lot more to offer. But there were times when work got in the way of everything else, including taking care of himself properly. He knew that he needed to find a happy medium, and that he needed to do so right away.

"I can do that, yeah - they've got this sampler, it comes with a little bit of everything. It's delicious - I think that'll probably make for a really good dinner."

He offered a smile as he went searching for his phone - it was probably in the living room, where those makeouts had led to more. Living together wasn't going to be perfect, but he was okay with that. If it was meant to last, they'd both put in the work to do just that. And he wasn't liable to let Rey slip through his fingers anytime soon, not when it was with her that he was the happiest. He'd have to be an idiot, and he'd like to think that he was anything but.
