╰┈➤Us three were again working at Scoops Ahoy. Steve and I were on break and Robin was serving customers.
Me and Steve were in our own worlds before we had both heard a voice coming from someone that Robin was serving.
"Uh-Is he here?" "Is who here?" Steve got up and ran to the door, opening it, "Henderson." I got up and opened the door, standing behind Steve. I watched as Steve rushed over to Dustin.
"Henderson! He's back! He's back!" "I'm back! You guys got the job!" "We got the job!" Steve said before walking over to Dustin to do their handshake. I watched smiling beside Robin. "How many children are you both friends with?" Robin asked us. Steve sighed.

╰┈➤Steve, Dustin and I all sat at one of the booths in Scoops Ahoy. Dustin sat eating a banana split, telling us about his "girlfriend". "No, no. No way. Hotter than Phoebe Cates?" I said to Dustin. "Mm-hmm." He replies. "Brilliant, too. And she doesn't even care that my real pearls are still coming in. She says kissing is better without teeth." Dustin said to us.
Steve looked at me, bewildered, and I gave him a smile turning back to Dustin. "Wow. Yeah, that's great. Proud of you, man. That's ro- That's kinda romantic. That's like...wow." Steve said to him. "Hm. So do you really just get to eat as much of this as you want?" Dustin asked. "Yeah. I mean, sure. It's not really a good idea for me, though. You know, I gotta keep in shape for the ladies." I again sighed. "Yeah, and how's that working out for you?" Robin asked, who was clearing a table. I looked up at her and she smiled. "Ignore her." Steve said. "She seems cool." Dustin stated. "She's not."
I smiled at Steve's comment; asking Dustin, "So, where are the other knuckleheads?" "They ditched me yesterday." Dustin said. "No." Steve said. "My first day back. Can you believe that shit?" "Whoa. Seriously?" I said. "I swear to God. Mm. They're gonna regret it, though, big time, when they don't get to share in my glory." Dustin said. "Glory? What glory?" I asked him.
"So, last night, we're trying to get in contact with Suzie..." "Oh. Mm." Steve said. "And, uh..." Dustin looked around before whispering into his hand. I furrowed my eyebrows and said, "What?" Dustin tried saying whatever he had said before again, but continued to whisper. "Just speak louder." Steve said to him.
"I intercepted a secret Russian communication!" Dustin yelled. Everyone in Scoops Ahoy looked at him. "Jeez, shh. Yeah, okay, that's what I thought you said." Steve said. "What-- What does that mean?" Steve asked, looking at Dustin, confused. "It means, Steve, we could be heroes. True American heroes." Dustin said. "Huh." "Mmhmm." "American heroes." I furrowed my eyebrows again. "Just think, you could have all the ladies you want and more." "More?" "More." "I like more." "Mmhmm." They both sat; shaking their heads.
