We get to a game arcade and find a kid inside of a claw game. Me and Buck look at each other. "You really wanted that pony huh kid?" I ask. "Hi. Whatcha doing there? I'm gonna have to take you our if that's okay with you." he tells her. She nods. "Okay." he takes the screws out and I open it. "Hi, babygirl. You ready? okay. Watch your head." I pick her up into my arms. The crowd claps. "Thank you." her mom says taking her. "I can't believe they didn't have the key for this." "Don't worry about it. It's just...one of those nights." I chuckle. "And here. Congratulations on your moo-moo." Buck hands her the toy.

I walk with Buck down the pier back to the truck. He calls Abby. "Hey, Abby!" I say before he can answer. "She said hi," he tells me.

Buck howls. I shake my head. "A cute dork. Okay. I'll take that." "Got the dork part right," I mutter. He nudges my shoulder.

"I feel great. Uh, no pain got minor discomfort but don't you worry I have someone monitoring my bread intake." "That includes any form of cake or brownie," I state. "Oh come on T." "Nope. don't wanna resuscitate you." I retort.

"I don't know. Um, I have a run of shifts but I will check the schedule. Oh, are you buckling in?" I stop and look at him. I roll my eyes and walk off. "Bucklin' in- I swear one day I'm gonna slap this boy," I state.

Thank god, my shift ends after this I'm going to bed.

I do not have time for full moons.

Next day when I come to work with my Shake and fries. I see all of my friends exhausted. "Jesus who pissed in your cheerios?" "Can I have a hug?" Buck asks. I look at him up and down. "I wish you big ass wou-" he hugs me. "Uh. There there." I say a little uncomfortable. I call Jenna. "Hello?" "get help."
