{Moose's POV}
I took the G-Wagon to Fire's shop, where her, her older sister and the owner of the shop, Keeda, Andy and Jackson worked. Lucy was with me. I just needed a new tire in my back tire, and then I'd be ready to roll.

As it being the most popular car auto parts shop in the U.S., there were a couple people there already, only because it was Wednesday. I rolled up and Fire noticed me quickly, coming over to pet Lucy.

"How's it going, pup?" she asked as she rubbed her head. I smiled at her. "Whatcha need, Moose?" she said, putting her hand on her hip.

"I may or may not need a new back right tire," I said, looking at the almost completely flat tire. She examined it before standing up. "Looks like you've run over something sharp, right?" she asked. "Probably. You think you can fix it?" I asked.

"Do I think I can?" she said in disbelief. "I know I can, don't question that, George." "Haha, okay," I laughed, getting me and Lucy out of the G-Wagon and Keeda came over, grabbing the jack.

As they got done fixing my vehicle, Fire wanted to come home with me, as I was the one who dropped her off and it was closing time. "Fire, you've got just a little paperwork to do, okay?" Keeda said, handing the folder to her. She nodded and gave her sister a hug. "If you get frustrated, call me, okay?" Fire smile and nodded, getting in the G-Wagon and I drove back to the TM house.

I heard a scream. It was 1 in the morning, the house was completely silent. Lucy followed me to Fire's room. "Fire? You okay?" I whispered.

Tears were in her eyes and her face was red, her hair a mess. She was wearing some sweatpants and had a Moose💯 hoodie on, a black one, to be exact.

"LEAVE ME ALONE!" she screamed at me. I knew I had to be patient. A moment of patience in a moment of anger saves a hundred moments of regret. I went back to my room and got back into bed, giving Fire some space. It must've been the paperwork.

A while later, Fire came into my room, her cheeks and eyes puffy and red. Before she could say a word, I let her under the covers. She cried into my chest until she fell asleep.
