Fire, Love, Family and Strength

Chapter 1

Heatwave Flamezer was a young rookie firefighter he just got a job at a firehouse in Fort Worth. He was moving there from his home in Portland Maine. He had just finished packing. Now he was going into his car and leaving. "Bye mom and dad," Heatwave said.

"Bye son, take care of yourself," His father said.

"Remember to call son," His mother said.

"I will," Heatwave said. "I will call when I get the hotel," he said. Then left and head to Fort Worth. It was long drive from Maine to Texas. Heatwave drove for a few hours and made a couple of stops for gas, bathroom and food. Then he made to the hotel and checked in for the night. He called his parents. "I made it safe and sound to the hotel. I will call you tomorrow when I make it to the next hotel, bye," he said.

Then Heatwave went to bed. The next morning Heatwave left bright and early. He was heading to the next hotel. He drove for many hours. Finally he had made it to the second hotel. He called his parents to let them know he was there. Then the next morning Heatwave left again.

Finally he made it to Fort Worth Texas. He made it to his new apartment. He moved all of his stuff in. He called his parents to let them know he got there safely. Then Heatwave got settled in and started to go to his new job.

Heatwave was doing well as a firefighter. "You did a good job today Heatwave," the fire captain said. "You should be proud." He said.

The a few months later Heatwave was in a rhythm with his life. But today was different. Heatwave was coming back from his shift from the firehouse. He saw someone new moving into the apartment across the hall. It was a lady who was in his age range.

Heatwave came up to her. "Hello I am Heatwave Flamezer your neighbor from across the hall," Heatwave said.

"Nice to meet you Heatwave," Quickshadow said. She had a British accent. "I am Quickshadow Liron I just moved here from the UK." she said. "I am a pediatric nurse so what do you?" she asked.

"I am a firefighter," Heatwave said.

"That is a fine job," Quickshadow said.

They hit off right and became fast friends. They spent a lot of time together and becoming really good friends. Then a few months later they decided to date. Things were going really well for them.

A few months into the relationship they introduced each other to each other's parents via video chat. They seemed to get along fine with the other's parents.

Their relationship began to grow and grow. They were really in love with each other. They had been dating for two years. Heatwave knew Quickshadow was the one he had been waiting for. So he went to go buy a ring for her. He began looking for one and found the one he was looking for. "That one is perfect," Heatwave said. Then he paid for it. "I sure hope she says yes," he said.

Heatwave took Quickshadow on a date. "So are you having a nice time?" Heatwave asked.

"Yes I am having a wonderful time Heatwave," Quickshadow said. "This is one of the nicest dates I have ever been on," she said.

"I am glad," Heatwave said. Then Heatwave pulled out a box. "Quickshadow will you marry me?" he asked.

Quickshadow was in shock and happy. "Yes," Quickshadow said. Then Heatwave put the ring on her finger. It was a wonderful moment to say the least.

They began to plan a wedding. It was a lot of work to get ready or the wedding. They decided for the wedding to be in April. They were busy making sure everything was ready for it. It took a lot of planning.

Heatwave got his tuxedo. Quickshadow got her dress. They were both ready for everything. "That should do it," Quickshadow said. "Everything is planned." she told him.

"That's good," Heatwave said. "Now we need to wait for the big day," he said.

Then the big day arrived. Heatwave was up bright and early. His best friends who lived in Fort Worth helped get him ready. "Heatwave your bow tie is crooked," Blades said straightening it out.

"Thanks Blades," Heatwave said.

Quickshadow was getting ready with help of her friends. She was feeling lovely and ready to marry her love.

Heatwave was at the altar waiting for Quickshadow. He was ready to marry her. Then Quickshadow came walking down the aisle with her father. She looked so beautiful. Heatwave was so amazed by it. He wondered if she could look more beautiful.

Then her father gave her to him and then sat down. Heatwave and Quickshadow were ready for their vows.

"Heatwave do you take Quickshadow as your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, for as long as you both shall live?" the preacher asked.

"I do," Heatwave said.

"Quickshadow do you take Heatwave as your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse, for as long as you both shall live?" The preacher asked.

"I do," Quickshadow said.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife," the preacher said. "you may kiss the bride," he said.

Heatwave and Quickshadow kissed each other lovingly. "I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Flamezer," the preacher said.

Heatwave and Quickshadow were so happy. This was a very wonderful moment in their lives. They were now married. They were enjoying the reception and dinner. They were dancing together and having a good time.

"Heatwave this is a wonderful day for us both," Quickshadow said.

"I am the happiest man alive," Heatwave said.

"I am the luckiest girl in the world," Quickshadow said. "I hope we have a long and happy life together," she said.

"I hope so too," Heatwave said. "I love you," he said.

"I love you too," Quickshadow said.

Then the two of them left for their honeymoon. They were very happy during their honeymoon and wondered if life could get better than this.
