You're a fire lookout a it's great for you at least; it's quiet, peaceful normally just you and your dog(charity) hanging out in the lookout, you've not actually spotted a fire yet this season which is great the only downside is your lack of your girlfriend, Vi, who's a firefighter but in the city, so no Vi for you bless she has a weekend off to hike up to the look out, but she's also basically a full time care giver to her mentally ill sister so it's rare that you guys get to spend time together during fire season.

You've been sat on the bench by the window definitely not looking like a homeless person in your girlfriends hoodie that's stained with coffee and hair that hasn't seen shampoo in a week as it's been too cold to properly shower (shitty excuse but you're here alone who cares), you stare into the endless forest, scratching Charity's floppy ears, you're half asleep when Charity's ears perk up happily and she runs off down the strait of the lookout you don't think much of it at first as the mutt comes and goes as she pleases, you watch her run to the treeline tipping happily wriggling her butt and out of the forest line comes out… Vi! You drop your cup and run down to greet the woman (and chastise her for not telling you she's coming) you stand on the edge of the hill, your lookouts stationed on waiting for Vi to come up.

“Hey cupcake”

Vi wraps her arms around you smiling into your neck, she's not dressed for hiking and it's infuriating because you care for her and she has no self preservation skills… idiot Vi.
