Once the cops were back at the police station, Noah lead John to his office, noah went to check his car as daily routine, while John was sent to direct traffic.
He wasn't exactly excited for that role. He found it pretty boring, but it's not like he could refuse.
So he spent a couple of hours directing traffic, making sure that people weren't going too fast or breaking any law, keeping himself entertained by keeping an eye on what people around him were doing.
After about an hour his shift directing traffic ended, and he was told to go on patrol with an officer called marshal.
John returned to the station and met up with marshal.
When he returned to the station and saw marshal already waiting for him outside
«hello there, you must be marshal right? I'm John, nice to meet you.» he said politely with a slight smile.
Marshal returned the smile and answered
«yes, that's me, nice to meet you as well.»
They shook hands and then John asked
«we're supposed to go on patrol right? Let's go»
Marshal nodded and lead John to his car, they hopped in and began patrolling around the streets.
They found an alleyway and decided to park there for a bit, while keeping an eye on their surroundings.
Then marshal turned to look at John and asked
«so, what made you want to become a policeman?»
John turned his attention to marshal and thought for a second before answering
«oh, well..pretty much the reason the others cops decided to have this job, you know? Protect civilians and capture criminals, I want to do my best to ensure safety in this city.»
He answered, almost proudly.
Marshal snickered softly seeing John's excitement
«yeah, I guess you're right, most policeman do this job for that reason.»
They patrolled in silence for a couple more minutes before marshal got an idea
«hey, how about we go grab a drink?»
John seemed a bit confused
«i mean, I would like to, but are we allowed to?»
«sure, it's just a drink, we can drink it outside so we can keep patrolling »
John then accepted, they got out of the car and walked towards a nearby bar, they ordered two coffees and sat outside.
After a few minutes a waiter came and handed them their coffees.
John watche the waiter as he walked back inside before taking a sip of his coffe, when he looked back at marshal he saw him looking at him with a smug grin, john raised an eyebrow and asked
«what?»
«he's cute huh?»
John blushed slightly out of surprise
«w-what? I mean, I guess he's not bad looking..»
Marshal chuckled
«come on, I saw how you looked at him.»
«i was simply watching... nothing much.»
John looked away and sipped his coffee, marshal rolled his eyes playfully and sipped his coffee.
They finished their drinks and went back to their cars to continue the patrol.
After their shifts ended they returned to the police station before going back home, John opened the door just to have his Pitbull jumping up happily and greeting him, John smiled and petted his dog
«hi there max! You missed me buddy? Well I missed you too!»
He finished greeting max, took his coat and uniform off and fell asleep on the couch.
