Aurelia sat beside Buck at the firehouse separating her gummy bears giving Buck the orange and lemon flavor ones. Eddie walked up handing Buck a pamphlet before stealing one of Aurelia's gummy bears, she smacked his hand away earning a laugh from Eddie. Hen who was sitting at the table had Eddie time her on a quiz she was taking for medical school. while Bobby and Chim were prepping dinner for the station.

"summer camp?" Buck asked.

"it's all he can talk about. some of the other kids from school are going. it's only two weeks. time." Eddie turned to Hen.

"whoa, whoa, two weeks away from home? isn't Chris kind of young for that? i mean what if something happens? what if he gets homesick?" Buck worried turning to Eddie.

"just call him every single day like how Buck did with me when i was in Spain." Aurelia grinned turning her head to Buck, Buck looked at her playfully rolling his eyes making her smile as he grabbed her stool pulling her closer to him.

"i'm pretty sure i brought in the brochure so you guys can make me feel better about him going." Eddie says to his team.

"clearly, you did not think that plan through to it's logical conclusion." Chimney says.

"i started going to sleep away camp when i was eight. i loved it. Camp Weegeewagen." Bobby says, Aurelia looked up from the counter furrowing her brows at her father.

"huh?"

"eedee-idee-odee-ooh-hoo! looked forward to it every year." Bobby smiled at Aurelia who laughed.

"yeah, but Christopher's a city kid." Chimney added in.

"so was i. St. Paul is a city." Bobby answered.

"if you say so." Chimney says making Buck laugh.

"i'm just trying to imagine trying to sell Denny on the idea of two weeks without the internet." Hen says.

"it's pretty exciting. they even have this farm-to-fork program where the kids pick veggies and cook 'em for dinner." Eddie tells Hen as he started to grade her quizzes.

"that sounds a lot like child labor." Buck reached over grabbing his gummy bears Aurelia separated for him.

"damn it! i gotta get above a 511." Hen frowned looking through her tests.

Aurelia turned to her side leaning her head against Buck's chest who ran his hand up and down her back.

"504 is pretty good." Eddie assured her.
