    Summary

    “Say you got married,” Robby found himself asking. “Would you wear your dress blues? Or civilian clothes?”

    It had only been an idle thought, no different than any number of easy, directionless musings of the sort that often came over the two of them on mornings like this one, when no one had a shift to go to for at least thirty-six hours. Robby didn’t mean anything by it. But he regretted the words the instant they left his mouth, even before he saw the incredulous grin slide over Jack’s face.

    “Your boyfriend’s getting promoted,” Dana says and Robby rolls his eyes.

    Adamson’s getting promoted,” he corrects.

    “I thought you were already his boss,” Dana jumps in.

    Summary

    “You have to twist your hand the other way to tie that stitch correctly,” Robby says, looking over Jack’s shoulder.

    “Fuck off,” he mutters under his breath.

    “Just trying to help.”

    “Go kiss ass over there ponyboy.”

    “Ponyboy? We’re bringing it back to freshman year English class?”
