Jeans, boots and my orange blazer.
“You look good babe”. Jake spoke as he slipped his arm around my waist.
“| feel a little nervous”. | had no idea why seeing as we were already over the hard part. Tonight was just dinner.
“It’s just dinner, right?”.
I nodded.
“Then you have nothing to be nervous about”. He kissed the top of my head as his arm fell from my waist.
“I'll meet you downstairs”.

“What's so funny?”. | asked going to the fridge and grabbing a bottle of water.
“Just going over last night's patrol”. Jake smiled.
“We may have pranked the young ones”
“We scared them a little”.
My dad added. “We have to keep them on their toes for when real situations happen”.
“You guys are mean”. | frowned. “Do you know if my auntie Claire is going to be here tonight?”.
“No idea”. My dad shrugged.
“Have you spoken to Carter at all?”. My eyes landed on Jake.
“He’s doing patrol tonight with Rocco so | wouldn't expect him there”.
“He’s doing patrol again?”, | frowned.
“Don’t givethat look”. He held his hands up. “He asked for it and | think having 2 out there is working
better”.
“Told you that weeks ago”. | rolled my eyes and put my water back in the fridge. “Should we head over now?”.
“We'll be early by ten minutes”. My dad spoke.
“I'm sure she won't mind us being early”. | sighed.

Or they had lost track of time?
“Doesn't look like anyone is home”. Jake spoke.
“Yeah”.
| frowned. “I'll give her a call she’s maybe just running late”. It didn’t even ring, it went straight to voicemail, but

“Anything?” My dad asked.
“Straight to voicemail”.
“Should we just grab dinner and go home, or do you want to go out for dinner since we're all dressed?”. My dad
asked.
Was | worried that they weren't home? Had something happened?
“Let’s just go hand order in”. Hopefully everything was okay, and she would givea call later.
