A sunny Sunday afternoon and the last thing that Ade actually had was any time off. No, instead he was sitting in Silver Lake Meadows on a bench beside the playpark, keeping one eye on Cody and the other on Goliath, who was snoozing beside his feet. He had another two hours until he actually had some time for himself, this afternoons excursion thrown at him at the very last minute —- Cody’s mom suddenly deciding that lunching with her girlfriends was more important than spending time with her son or giving Ade a day off.

He’d been there maybe fifteen minutes, just watching the kids play, when he heard movement beside him and glanced up to see another person taking a seat at the opposite end of the bench. “Nice day for it…” he commented lightly, desperate to make conversation with someone —- anyone —- who wasn’t a nanny or a parent in that moment. “What brings you out today?”

Robbie had gone for his usual one-hour morning jog when he decided to rest at a bench nearby a kid’s play park. He played around with his smart watch to check how much miles he had ran and how far it would take him to get back home. “It’s a nice day for a jog, not too hot and a nice breeze, something you don’t get around here often. You?” He asked the nicely dressed man from across the bench.

“As long as you don’t use it on me. I’ll start World War 3 with Silverlake’s fire department,” she half-threatened as she nodded. “Ugh, yes! As long as I can steal one of your wings.” She shot her best innocent smile. “I’ve been craving poké all week.”

“You can’t do that. You might be arrested for public disturbance.” Robbie said with a laugh. “Sure, I don’t mind sharing.” Robbie said with a shrug. The two eventually met up at Ohana’s, got their orders and settled on a table by the window. “I’m so hungry I can eat all of these in three seconds.” Robbie opened the tin container his wings were served in, offering Stevie to get her servings first. “So, how’s your day? Flip off any douchebags lately?” He jested.

Unsurprisingly Holly arrived first, but then, they weren’t the one heading somewhere to change and shower first. This, though, gave them a chance to peruse the menu and figure out what they wanted today. When Robbie finally showed up, they glanced over at him with playfully raised brows and gave a laugh. “What a beautiful image, Robbie…” they murmured with a laugh. “Think I’m getting the grilled salmon taco today, just in the mood for something like that.”

“I clean up nice, don’t I?” Robbie jokingly ran his index finger and his thumb on his chin. “Definitely better than being covered in smoke and soot...and yogurt.” He continued as he looked up to the menu. “That sounds really good. I might get two of that and two Al Pastor tacos.” The pair ordered and settled on their seats, waiting for their orders. “So, how was work today? By the way I’m still holding onto a free ice cream sandwich. Maybe on fireman appreciation day.”

once robbie had closed the gap between them and the pair could speak without yelling across a main road , he responded . “ sal’s it is . i hear they have the greasiest slices this side of the equator , “ jaden joked , allowing buffy to tug at her leash and sniff around the other , inquisitively giving his friend the once-over . “ – and as long as this girl gets a circle of pepperoni she’s gonna be on her best behaviour . she’s a very distinguished lady , y'know . loves foreign cuisine . “

“Yeah, a little too greasy if you ask me.” Robbie said, watching as Buffy sniffed on his foot and leg. He didn’t pet the dog, knowing she was a service dog. “I’m sure she’ll get more than a slice to be honest. Hard working gal like her deserves everything in this world.” He said as the two walked over to Sal’s. “What’s new man?” Robbie asked.

“You sure? Sounds like you just described your mum?” That was the closest Ethan has ever gotten to a Your Momma joke and he cringed a little. “Now I’m just feel like I missed the craze when we all decided to defend the Backstreet Boys.”

“I mean, I grew up during the Backstreet Boys prime so I doubt my mom listens to those stuff. I’m just saying most girls at that time are moms now...”

who: @slchat​ where: cosmic vinyl

“I do try not to be a music snob, but,” he started with a sheer look of disdain on his face as he held the vinyl carefully in hand as he examined the cover. “Is there really people out there hoping to get a Backstreet Boys record for their collection?”

Robbie walked over and looked at the Backstreet Boys Millennium cover. “I mean, that album is pretty iconic man, and they have a huge following of moms. So, yes, I’d think someone would actually want that. Not that I know of anyone who would, though.”

“If it’s Dallas driving you let him know that he’s gonna have some explaining to do,” she warns, looking at Robbie over her sunglasses before letting out a long sigh. “Today was supposed to be my testosterone free day,” she says as she watches the light to be sure she doesn’t miss the change. As the only woman at the fire house, sometimes it was necessary to simply be away form men on her day off. But free lunch was hard to say no to. “Fine, I’ll meet you at the firehouse and you can grab your stuff and jump in. But I get to pick where we’re going.”

Robbie scrunched his nose, a look on disbelief on his face when she explained to him that this was her day away from the boys. “Please. You enjoy hanging out with us. Especially when we’re not being pigs.” He remarked. He grinned widely when Joey took up his offer under the condition she got to pick the place. “Deal.” He agreed with her proposition. “I just hope it’s not a salad place. No amount of salad will get me full.” He explained from across the truck. The light went green and he tapped the fire truck door and they headed back to the firehouse. 

After a quick change of clothes, Robbie hopped into the passenger’s seat of Joey’s truck and buckled up. “What are you in the mood for?” He asked, a little out of breath from how quick he got settled.

Being behind the wheel of the firetruck felt like second nature to Dallas, he had spent so much of his adult life in rigs that it could have doubled as a second home. What tended to change was the person occupying the passenger’s side and while Robbie tended to be impulsive he at least made him laugh. Reaching across, Dallas hit his shoulder with his hand before he leaned forward and spoke to who he had been propositioning. 

“Don’t mind him, we’re still trying to house train him,” He says, which seems to have earned a laugh before he sits back in time for the red light to flick green, taking off again towards the firehouse. 

“Be honest with me now, how often does that work for you?” 

“Hey...come on bro. Pouring my heart out here.” Robbie gestured to his chest, slightly disappointed on how Dallas ruined his game. “A gentleman never tells, man.” Robbie shook his head. “I may or may not have taken someone on a joy ride before.” Robbie smirked, kicking one of his feet up the dash. “Don’t tell me you haven’t used the sexy fireman card to score a date?” He asked Dallas, looking at him skeptically.

“Maybe that should be our thing now. Just pounce on one another at the last minute in the hope one of us is free?” queried Holly with a grin flashed in his direction. “Exactly what I was thinking, so I can’t feel too sorry for you just yet. You just look like I do at the end of a shift at work.” A light shrug followed in answer to his proposal. “All sounds good to me! I’ll see you there,” they responded happily.

It didn’t take long until Robbie showered and changed before hopping on his motorcycle to meet Holly for lunch at Paco’s. He pushed the door, causing the bell to ring and looked at the overhead menu, standing next to Holly. “I’m so hungry I can eat a cow. Literally.” He commented, focusing on the food items that seemed appetizing to him. “Did you decide on what to get?”

jadenlapointe​:

“ buffy ?? “ he questioned , glancing down to the dog at his side and stroking one of her soft , beige ears . “ – she can go anywhere with me . she’s a service dog , hence her fetching fluorescent coat , so most restaurants and cafes have to let me in with her . i guess i could go for some italian food right about now . “

“We can go to Sal’s? I’m sure they have more than pizza there.” Robbie hopped out of the truck and gestured for his colleague to go without him. He looked both ways before the street before jogging up to Jaden. “I didn’t take Buffy here for an Italian food kinda gal.” He crouched down to take a good look at his dog.

         “how often does that work for you?” aaron asks curiously, hand reaching outward, waving about as a nod to vehicle. “the truck, i mean.”

“Pretty well. Got a few numbers here and there. I personally think it’s the uniform more than the truck. Although, the moms usually like both.”

tysondabs​:

“I dunno…Del Taco? There’s one round the corner.” Tyson said with a shrug. He didn’t have any particular care one way or the other. “As long as it’s not vegan shit.” 

“Yeah, sure, seems easy enough.” Robbie hopped out of the fire truck and walked with Tyson towards Del Taco. “I dated a vegan girl once, she never really quite understood my fireman’s diet.” He chuckled at the thought.

“Touché, ” she finger-gunned over at him, “at least you’re not using the speaker to get my attention” she joked. “I’m down. I can pay this time, just because I’m coming from practice and I’m about to eat half the menu of any resturant right now.” 

“Huh. I never thought about using that. Thanks for giving me the idea, for next time.” Robbie grinned. “Great! You wanna meet at Ohana’s? I’m in the mood for some hot wings.”

siennaking​:

“Totally.” Sienna nodded in agreement. Being able to see the good and the bad in things was useful when it came to writing, although it was something Sienna sometimes struggled with. “Steinbeck, huh? Most people aren’t into reading these days, especially classics.” She, like many people, had become bound to technology, but made sure to set aside the screen for the pages of a book every once in a while. “I’m more of a Wuthering Heights girl. The dark elegance of it gets me every time.” Not to mention most people fantasized about a great love like Catherine and Heathcliff, as controversial as it may have been, and Sienna was no exception. Shrugging, she placed her own hand into his. “When you’re right you’re right, stranger or not. I’m Sienna.”

“I think Steinbeck is a genius, and I really enjoy reading his books. I have to read Travels with Charley next.” Robbie said as he gushed about the author. “Ah, Emily Brontë. I’m not big on romance novels to be honest, but I have read that one. For like a book report I think. All I got from that books is, love is pain. The premise of that novel is very tumultuous and melancholic. And Heathcliff might be a borderline sociopath but I won’t get into that.” He waved his other hand to stop himself from bashing Heathcliff. “Nice to meet you, Sienna.” He shook his hand. “I’m assuming but, do you write for a living?” He asked politely.

jaden was recognisable enough , from the slight limp in his gait to the happy sandy pit bull dragging him down the streets of silverlake on her own terms . it didn’t matter where he intended on going ; buffy would take him on a wild journey winding through back alleys , under bridges , around in circles and through busy intersections in order to achieve her daily dose of exercise . the call garnered her attention first , and jaden’s head turned soon after to follow her inquisitive gaze . “ oh , hey !! “ he called back up to robbie , hurrying to the open window , “ sure thing . i’m just being led in loops by my girl . she’s working me up quite the appetite . where do you wanna go ?? “

“I don’t know man, where do you wanna go? Where can your girl there eat?” Robbie asked Jaden and referred to his dog.

“I picked up the last check, dude,” Tyson said, now second guessing whether he had or not. But he was almost sure he did. “And yeah, yeah I will. I save people’s lives every day too. Literacy is just as important.” 

“Yeah, literacy is important. You’re right.” Robbie nodded. “Fine, I’ll pick up this tab. Where do you wanna go? I can’t drink though, gotta go back to work.”

“What makes you think that?” questioned Holly, brows playfully raised in his direction —- they were pretty sure they weren’t usually run off their feet whenever plans with Robbie came up, but then again, who knew? “I’m good with anything. You’re the one asking, what are you in the mood for?” As he continued on, they chuckled lightly, adding with a grin, “Well at least it was only yogurt. Could have been a lot worse.”

“I don’t know, sometimes whenever we plan something, it doesn’t usually happen; what more with shotgun plans?” Robbie shrugged his shoulders. “Yeah, thank God it was only yogurt. Could’ve been regurgitated yogurt.” He pointed out with a grin. “I was thinking tacos, if you’re up to it. Gotta love dollar tacos at Paco’s.” He made up the slogan. “Meet you there in fifteen?”
