WC: 6.1K

~A year ago~

It was nearly midnight and here you were, sitting in your small one bedroom apartment, going over the menus for the upcoming week and events. You scrolled thru the recipes, making adjustments here and there, knowing that the pastry chef would probably just go thru it again and scrap all the hard work you put into it. You hung your head and rubbed your temples as you search for a new job had so far proven fruitless.

Just as you were about to shut down your computer, your phone chimed with a new text message. Smiling as you saw the familiar name and quickly replied.

Bratty Nattie: You still awake?

Y/N: Yeah, unfortunately. Going over menus.

Bratty Nattie: calling…

You rubbed your eyes as Natasha FaceTimed you and answering the call, propping your phone up against a water bottle. “Hi brat! How are you?”

“I’m good. How are you?” Nat asked, noticing that looked frazzled.

“I’m gonna pull my hair out. Marc-Antony is an ass. I used to love what I did, but he just makes me hate it now. There aren’t any jobs here.” Hearing loud shouts come from behind Nat. “Where are you Nattie?”

“The Hard Deck, it’s a bar here in San Diego.” Nat looked back over her shoulder, into the bar.

“Wait, what?! You’re in California!? When did you get there?” You rubbed your hand across your forehead. Picking up your phone and walked to your bathroom. Propping your phone up on the counter as you removed you contacts and put on your glasses. “Did I miss the family email? Did you even send one out?”

“Got here about a month ago.” Shaking her head, Nat chuckled. “No, you didn’t miss the family email. I haven’t sent one out yet.”

“Excuse me, Sissy!!” You yelled and picked up phone, heading into you bedroom. Flopping down on your bed, you laughed with Nat. “Shame!! Do Mom and Dad know?”

“Well, of course they know. I’ve just been busy with training and shit.” Hearing a door open behind Nat and a bespectacled man walks out. “Hold on Y/N. Bob, you’re leaving?”

“Yeah, I have something I have to do. I might be back. Sorry, for interrupting your call.” Hearing the muffled reply as Nat held her phone close to her chest.

“It’s okay Bob. It’s just my sister. Have a good night.” Nat flipped her phone out, showing Bob that it was no big deal. You smiled and awkwardly waved at the man that appeared suddenly on the screen. He smiled shyly and gave a small wave before heading to his vehicle.

“Nat… Nattie!!” You yelled, getting her attention back to the phone. “Who was that?”

Waving her hand non-chalantly in the air. “My back seater, Bob. But the reason why I’m calling you is because I might know of a way for you to have your own bakery.”

You sat up and stared at Nat, blinking rapidly, trying to process what she just said. “I’m sorry, what? My own bakery? How?”

“Well, there is this bakery, right outside the base, it’s amazing. The owner is getting ready to retire, his father opened it when he was like in his 20’s and gave it to him when he retired. None of his kids want the bakery and he doesn’t want to sell it to some corporation that’s just gonna ruin everything he built. It’s been around for nearly a century. I told him that you’re a pastry chef and looking for a new and better job opportunity.” Nat rambled on about the bakery. “And he’s kinda wants to meet you.”

“Oh my god.. Natasha!!” You stated at her wide eyed.

“What!? You are always complaining about your job now. How you don’t get any creative say in anything. Now, you can. And you make such amazing cakes and cookies and everything. BTW, when are you gonna send me some?”

Laughing, shaking your head. “Well, send me your address and I’ll box some up for you. And you’ve given me a lot to think about.”

Nat shrugs and smiles. “I know. I’ve already sent you an email with all the owners information. Call him when you get the chance. And I just texted you my address. I want your salted caramel chocolate chip cookies.”

“Yeah maybe.” You yawned and glanced at the time. “Shit, I gotta get to sleep. 5am comes quick.”

Nat nods and smiles. “I know. Just think about it, okay.”

“Okay sissy. I love you.” You laid back in your bed.

“Love you too, Y/N.” Nat waved and blew you a kiss as a tall, dark haired mustachioed man flung an arm around her shoulders. “Good night.. Nope, Roos….”

The call quickly ended and you laughed. Sinking back into your pillows, your cat Simba curling up next to you and thought about the proposition that Nat just presented to you.

You tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep with all the thoughts coursing thru you head. You groaned when your alarm went off at 5am, smacking your phone to make it stop. Kicking the covers off you in protest, you slowly slide out of bed and stretches. You stumble into the bathroom, starting the shower and quickly brush your teeth. Before hopping in the shower, you put in your contacts and close the door, so Simba doesn’t bother you. You rush thru your morning routine, eager to get to work and talk to your boss. Slipping on your sneakers, you grab your work shoes, a muffin and your water bottle as you run out the door, locking it behind you. Slipping down the stairs and out into the morning rush as you head to the train station. The train arrives about 5 minutes later and you enter as you think about what you are going to tell your boss. You have about 2 weeks of accrued vacation time plus about a week of PTO. Right now, it’s not the busy season so you should be able to take a weekend off.

You exit the train at your stop, walking a couple of blocks to your job and head inside. You flash your badge to security and head back to the kitchen. You flag down your boss, Miranda, letting her know that you needed to speak to her. You start on your daily tasks, getting everything set up and dove into your first order of the day.

Around noon, you took your lunch break and headed down to Miranda’s office. Knocking on her doorframe, she waved you in as she spoke on the phone and you sit in the chair opposite her. She hangs up and greets you.

“Hey Siri, what did you need to talk to me about?” Miranda sits back in her chair, smiling softly.

“Well, I need to use some of my PTO. My sister is in California and I need to go out and see her.” You fidget with the buttons on your chef coat.

Miranda sits up slightly, leaning her elbows on her desk. “She okay?”

You sigh softly, nodding. “Yeah, she’s fine. Didn’t know she was out there. Apparently, she’s been there for about a month. But… ummm…” You pause, trying to figure out how to word everything properly and it just rushes out. “She told me about a really great job opportunity for me out there and I kinda want to check it out.”

“Oh… Well, that’s new. When were you thinking about going?” Miranda sits back in her chair, hands folded.

“As soon as possible. I don’t know if it’ll work out but come on. I love working for you. And Marc-Antony is an amazing pastry chef but I’m not getting anywhere under him. He’s always undermining my work. This is just something I want to check out.” You explain everything to her. “He has 4 interns and 3 other chefs under him right now, plus Beth and Cathie both are competent in their knowledge of the patisserie.”

She sighs and nods, “I know Siri. You are an amazing pastry chef. I would hate to see you leave us but if this is really something you want to pursue, let me see if I can move around the schedule and you can have next week off.” She turns to her computer, clicking a few different tabs and starts to review everything. “You are off this Saturday and Sunday but let me see what I can do. I let you know by the end of your shift.”

“Thank you so much Miranda. Even if it’s only a couple of days next week, that would be amazing.” You smile and stand up from the chair.

She stands with you and grabs your hand. “You truly are an amazing pastry chef, no matter what anyone says. Your cakes are impeccable, and I would kill to have your ginger peach scone recipe.”

You squeeze her hand, smiling brightly. “Thank you Miranda. That means a lot.” You head back to the break room, feeling lighter, to scarf down the half muffin you never finished on the train ride. Opening your locker, eating the muffin half and gulping down the rest of your water before clocking back in for work.

You headed back to your station, feeling lighter, and set to work on coloring fondant and making royal icing for the next batch of cookies to be decorated. You were so engrossed in your work that you didn’t see or hear Miranda come up next to you.

“Hey Siri, I just wanted to let you know…” You jump hearing her voice so close and turned to look at her. “Sorry about that.”

Stepping slightly to the side and turns to her, chuckling softly. “It’s okay. Sometimes I’m so into my work I don’t hear anything around me.”

She nods, understanding. “I get that. But I just wanted to let you know that I was able to shift some things around and get you time off until Thursday. We will need you back for Friday tho. We have that big wedding and it’s all hands on deck.”

You beamed and quickly hugged her. “Thank you so much Miranda!! This is amazing.”

“You’re welcome Siri.” She smiled and laughed. “Start cleaning up your station, it’s nearly 5:30. I'll see you tomorrow.”

You nod as you start to clean up. “See ya tomorrow.” Filling piping bags with royal icing, securing them and placing them in your bin. Setting your bin on the shelf behind your station, you clean and sanitize your table for the night. You put away your other work bins, leave a note for the bakers in the log and clock out.

Catching the train home, you stop at the small grocery store a block from your apartment and pick up the ingredients to make scones and cookies. While in the grocery store, you sent a quick email to your financial advisor and looked up flights to San Diego. Checking out, you practically skipped home. It seemed like everything was going to be working in your favor.

The next few days seemed to fly by. You managed to book a decent flight to San Diego leaving Sunday morning, arrange for Simba to be looked after by your sweet older neighbor in exchange for some muffins and scones and book a hotel for your stay. Your financial advisor had called you and you told her about the opportunity that had arisen. She advised you that she would make sure everything would be all set if this was something that was really going to happen.

Saturday came and of course you woke up early. Instead of trying to fall back asleep, you set to work packing a carry on and baking some sweets for Natasha. You had texted back and forth a couple of times over the past few days but you didn’t tell her you were coming out. You wanted it to be a surprise. As you set the timer for the cookies, you called the bakery owner and set up a time to meet on Monday morning. He had received your resume and was impressed with what you had accomplished in your short culinary career. You thanked him and couldn’t wait to meet him. Hanging up with him as the timer went off and pulled the cookies out of the oven, placing the next batch on the rack. As the cookies cooled, you set to work on your ginger peach scones. You continued to bake all thru the morning and into the late afternoon before you noticed the time.

“Shit.” You mumble to yourself as it was nearly 5pm. Glancing around at your crowded counters and kitchen table before grabbing some Tupperware containers from your hall pantry. Filling one with some muffins and scones for you neighbor, another on for the bakery owner to sample and 2 more for Natasha filled with cookies, muffins and scones. You placed all the containers, save for your neighbors, in a reusable grocery bag and set it by the door. You cleaned your kitchen and start to make dinner.

Just as you set the pasta in the water, your phone was ringing with a FaceTime call from Natasha. Answering it quickly as you sat down in your oversized chair. “Hey there Nattie.”

“Hi Sissy. How are you?” She smiled.

“I’m good. How are you?” Noticing it’s all dark where she was. “Wait, where are you?”

“Yeah, about that.” You notice her wincing slightly as she shifted. “The hospital. There..”

You interrupted her, “Wait, I’m sorry… What the fuck!? The hospital!! Are you okay?! What happened Natasha?!”

“Y/N, calm down. I’m fine. Just a couple of scrapes, bruises and bumps. They are keeping us overnight for observation, but a really am fine.” She explained.

“Us? Who’s us?” You questioned, getting up from your chair as you walked into the kitchen to drain your pasta. Propping up your phone on the counter as you finished making your dinner.

“Bob and I.” She sighed softly as a nurse came into the room, Natasha shaking her head and turned her attention back to you. “We were doing training for a mission and we had a bird strike. Bob and I had to eject. But I swear Y/N, I’m okay. Just a little sore. I just wanted to let you know since you didn’t answer your phone earlier. You’re my emergency contact after Mom and Dad.”

“Shit!! I’m sorry Nattie. I’ve been baking all day. You know how zoned out I get.” Frowning as you scroll thru your phone and sees the missed call from an unfamiliar number.

Natasha laughs and shakes her head. “Yeah, I know. The place could be burning down around you and you wouldn’t even notice until your door was busted down.”

You hang your head and laugh, “Shut up brat. That was one time. And it wasn’t even that bad!”

“Well, I just wanted to let you know that I was okay. Just in case you got a text from Mom and started freaking out.” She yawned.

Your phone chimed with a text from Mom as she was talking. “And speak of the devil, there’s a text from Mom now. I’ll let you go, get some rest sissy. Love you.”

“Love you too sis.” You hang up with Natasha and reply back to you Mom.

Momma: Just wanted to let you know that Natasha is in the hospital but okay.

Y/N: Thanks Momma. She told me, just hung up with her.

Momma: That’s good. How are you doing sweetie?

Y/N: I’m okay Momma. Been working like crazy but I have a couple of days off. Might have a new job opportunity.

Momma: That’s wonderful Y/N/N. Tell me about it.

Y/N: We’ll, Nattie told me about it. A bakery owner near her is retiring. And he doesn’t really want to close his bakery. Nor does he want to sell it to a big corporation. I’ve already called him and I’m meeting him on Monday. Don’t tell Nattie. She doesn’t know I’m meeting him or that I’ll be there in San Diego. I wanna surprise her.

Momma: That sounds wonderful Y/N. I won’t say a word to Natasha.

You stir the sauce in to the pasta and text back your Mom.

Y/N: Thank you Momma. About to have some dinner. I’ll talk to you soon. Love you. ❤️

Momma: Okay Y/N. Love you too. ❤️

You add the grilled chicken and roasted broccoli to the sauced pasta and mix everything together. Scooping some into your bowl, you head to the couch and sat down. Simba was instantly at your side, begging for chicken as you started to eat and go over your checklist. You had everything packed except for a few toiletries. You wrote out instructions for Simba’s care as you finished up dinner. Cleaning the kitchen, you packed the leftovers into small containers, placing them in the fridge and started unplugging all the unnecessary appliances. Making your way to the bathroom, you double check everything and decide to call it an early night. Brushing your teeth, you set up everything you would need in the morning.

You laid down on your bed, relaxing with Simba and set your alarm. You knew you had at least an hour or more of travel before you got to the airport, so you wanted to be well rested as you hated to travel tired. Doing that one too many times had taught you a valuable lesson when you ended up stranded at the airport for nearly half a day once. You flipped thru the TV channels before finding something to watch as you fell asleep, popped a few melatonin gummies and set the sleep timer on your TV.

You woke up the next morning a couple of minutes before your alarm went off and snuggled with Simba before it did. Turning the alarm off, you climbed out of bed and popped in the bathroom room to get ready for the day ahead. Showering quickly, you grabbed the small toiletries bag and placed it in your carry on as you get ready. Double checking that you had everything packed, you zipped up your bag and placed it by your front door. You fed Simba and grabbed the instructions for him and the Tupperware container, heading across the hall. Knocking on the door, you waited as your neighbor shuffled over and opened it.

“Hi Miss Parker. I just wanted to give you the instructions for Simba and a little thank you gift for checking on him.” You smiled at her.

“My dear, you didn’t need to do that.” She shook her head but graciously accepted the container.

“I know how much you like my muffins and scones. It’s the least I can do since you won’t take my money.” You laughed and kissed her cheek. “You still have my spare key, right?”

“Of course I do dear.” She held up the key with the small acrylic muffin keychain. “You have a safe trip.”

“Thank you Miss Parker. I’ve already fed him this morning, so you won’t have to check in on him until tonight. I’ll be leaving in about a half hour.”

“Okay dear. Thank you for the muffins.” You nod and head back into your apartment. Grabbing your laptop, all your chargers, and your phone, packing everything into your personal bag for the plane. Double checking that you had everything, you grab your bags and head out the door. Making your way to the subway. You had to make a few transfers but you were soon on your way to the airport. Your flight wasn’t until about 11:30am but you wanted to get there early enough to find your gate and relax until you had to board.

You arrived at the airport at about 9:30, giving you enough time to check in, get thru security and grab a quick bite to eat. Stopping at a Dunkin Donuts in the terminal, a large Salted Caramel cold brew and a bagel with cream cheese, and headed down to your gate to wait. You sat down in a somewhat quiet corner, sipping your coffee and pulled your phone from your bag. Confirming your shuttle from the San Diego airport to your hotel, you did a quick search on what else there was to do. You figured you see what the city had to offer if you were possibly going to be living there soon. Browsing thru different websites, you got the idea what you could do in your free time.

The hour passed quickly and you were soon boarding your flight. You sent a quick text to your mom to let her know that you boarded the plane and on your way to surprise Natasha. She was excited for you, you hadn’t seen Nat in nearly 2 years, and she wished you luck with your meeting on Monday. You let her know that you would keep her informed of everything going on and quickly shut down your phone as the plane began to taxi.

The flight was uneventful and you made it to San Diego a little ahead of schedule. Gathering your bags you head out of the plane and onto the concourse to find your shuttle to the hotel. Once at the hotel and after checking in and unpacking, you forced yourself to take a quick nap to try and stay ahead of the jet lag.

You woke up as your alarm went off, sitting on the edge of the bed and checked the time. It was nearly 5:30, perfect time to go and find your sister. You arranged for an Uber to take you to The Hard Deck, quickly freshened up and grabbed your purse and bag before heading down to the lobby to wait. 10 minutes later, you were on your way to the bar. On the ride over to the bar, you were suddenly anxious. Wiping your hands on your jean shorts as you arrived, thanking the driver and exiting the car. You stood outside the bar, shaking out your hands as nerves overcame you again. Walking inside and up to the bar, the woman behind it smiled warmly and set a napkin in front of you.

“What can I get you?” She greeted you as you sat down on a stool.

“I.. umm.. Sorry. I’m okay right now. Just looking to see if someone is here yet.” You shook your head and smiled back at the woman.

“Who are you looking for?” She leaned over against the bar. “I know most of the regulars.”

“Umm… My sister, Natasha Trace.” Scrunches your brows together, realizing that she’ most likely known by her callsign. “Umm.. sorry, Phoenix. She’s a pilot with the Daggers.”

“They aren’t here yet but will probably arriving soon.” The woman stood back up and narrowed her eyes at you. “You must be Y/N. She’s told me a little about you. I’m Penny, owner of The Hard Deck.” Holding out her hand to you.

You shake Penny’s hand and let out a breath you didn’t know you were holding, smiling. “Yeah, that’s me. Maybe you can help me. She doesn’t know that I’m here. I didn’t tell her that I was coming out here. I mean, she knows that I will be here eventually to check out Caroline’s but not when.” You ramble on.

Penny places a hand on yours and squeezes lightly. “Breathe Y/N.” You take a deep breath and shake your head. “How do you want me to help?”

You shrugged slightly and bit your lip. “I’m not sure. I have something here for Nat. Some of my cookies and scones. She’s been wanting them.”

Penny holds her hands out and you give her the containers. “Give me those, I have an idea. You go and wait over by the jukebox. Your back will be to the entrance. And here.” She slid a cup over to you. “Water. Relax.”

“Thank you.” You take the water, sipping it slowly as you make your way over to the jukebox. You were browsing the song titles when you heard a ruckus at the entrance. Glancing over your shoulder, you see Natasha enter the bar with a group of loud men. You set the water down as you heard Penny call out.

“Hey Phoenix. I got something here for you.” She shouted over the ruckus.

You watched as Phoenix approached the bar and took the containers from Penny. She opened the top container that held your salted caramel chocolate chip cookies. “Penny, where did you get these?!” As a tall dark hair man reached for a cookie, Phoenix smacked his hand away and closed the container. Penny glanced over her shoulder towards where you stood by the jukebox.

Phoenix looks around the bar and in the direction Penny looked, her eyes widening. “Y/N!?” She set the containers on the bar and ran over to you, hugging you tightly.

You laugh and hug her back, mumbling. “Surprise sissy.”

“What the fuck are you doing here?” She pulls back and smacks your arm.

“I managed to get a few days off. I have a meeting with the owner of Caroline’s tomorrow morning.” You rub your arm and smile brightly. “I wanted to surprise you.”

Phoenix hugs you again, sniffling slightly. “Well, shit!! You did surprise me!!”

You pull away from Phoenix slightly and wipes the stray tear from her cheek. “Don’t get all weepy on me now Nattie.”

She rolls her eyes and nudges you with her shoulder. “Come on.” She links your arm with hers and starts to walk over to the pool table. “Let me introduce you to the Dagger Squad. Fellas..” She cleared her throat. “I want to introduce you to my sister, Y/N. That’s Fanboy, Coyote, Bagman and Rooster. Where’s Bob?”

The tall blonde she said the Bagman, grinned, handing his pool cue to Coyote and walked over to the two of you. “Jake or Hangman, actually.” He looked down at Phoenix. “He was finishing up some paperwork last I saw him. Didn’t know you had a sister Phoenix.”

Phoenix rolled her eyes again and shook her head, leading you away from him when Fanboy spoke up. “Her picture is in her locker with all her others. Hi. I’m Fanboy or Mickey.” He gave a small wave and smiled.

You smiled back and sat with Phoenix near the pool table. “So, how long are you here for? And how the hell did you manage this?”

“Until Thursday. My boss was able switch a few things around and got me the days off.” You grinned. “I told her about my opportunity out here and she wished me luck.”

Phoenix grabbed your hand and squeezed it. “You are gonna love Caroline’s. It’s so cute and they have the best lemon poppyseed scones. Do you want something to drink?”

You shook your head. “I have water for now. So, tell me about your back seater? Better than your last one?”

She laughed, shaking her head. “Bob is Bob. He is an amazing WSO. A bit shy, not cocky like Hangman there. Quiet, almost stealth like. You don’t even realize he’s there sometimes. Takes everything in, always observing. A great guy to talk to. He knows his shit. It’s like it all comes naturally to him up there. Is always on top of things.” She slides off the stool and heads towards the bar. “I‘ll be right back.”

“So, you’re the one that bakes the cookies Phoenix can’t shut up about.” The tall dark-haired man named Rooster said as he sat down on the other side of you.

“That would be me. Rooster, right?” He nodded. “Brought her some. Maybe if you’re nice, she’ll give you one or half of one.”

Rooster brings his hand to his chest, “You wound me. I am always nice. It’s that one over there you gotta watch out for.” He motions towards Hangman with his beer bottle.

“Y/N, this is Bob.” You turn in your seat and stand quickly, not realizing how close Phoenix and Bob were when you were suddenly all wet.

“Shit…” The cup that Bob was handing was suddenly at your feet, its contents running down your shirt and legs. “I’m sorry… Let me.. I’ll get you some napkins or a towel.”

He hurried off to the bar and you laughed softly. You sat back down as you heard Hangman, mumble something to Coyote. Raising an eyebrow to him as Bob returns with some napkins and a dry rag. “Hey, it’s okay. It was just water, right? I’ve had worse spilled on me.” You smile softly up at the bespectacled man, taking the rag from him. You wipe off your legs and scrunch your shirt into the rag, drying off. Bob sat down where Phoenix was once sitting and Phoenix shooed Rooster out of his seat beside you.

“Again, this Bob.” Phoenix smiled, introducing you again. “Bob, my sister Y/N.”

You sat back down, shifting towards Bob and smiled shyly as you tucked a stray piece of hair behind your ear. “Hi Bob. How are you? Nat mentioned the other day that you both had to eject because of a bird strike.”

Bob nodded, looking down at his hands before looking back up at you. “Yeah, we did. We’re okay tho. Just some bumps and bruises. Wasn’t too serious.”

You scoff at him. “Serious enough to keep you both overnight.” You reach over and place a hand on his arm. “Don’t diminish the seriousness of anything that might happen.”

Bob shook his head as pink slowly crept up his neck. “Never. I.. uhh.. I would never.” He adjusted his glasses, looking back at you. “It wasn’t the first time I’ve ejected and probably won’t be the last. But.. umm.. Phoenix tells me that you’re a pastry chef.” He quickly changes the subject. “That you make the best cookies and scones.”

Glancing back at her, and nods. “Yeah, apparently, she’s been telling everyone. Maybe I’ll let you try one of my cookies.”

Bob choked on his water as it was now your turn to blush. Heat crept over your cheeks, and you hung your head. “I’m sorry.. that came out very sexual..” Bob placed a hand over yours, sending a shiver up your arm and down your spine.

He grinned and chuckles softly. “It’s okay. Don’t be sorry. I’d love to try one someday.”

You and Bob continue to make small talk throughout the night. He told you about why he became a WSO. And you told him why you became a pastry chef. You both seemed to have similar interests. You were about to excuse yourself to get some fresh air as the bar was becoming a bit too loud when Hangman challenged you to a game of 9 ball.

Phoenix spoke up when she heard the challenge. “You really don’t want to do that Hangman.”

“You afraid I’m gonna beat your sister, Phoenix?” Hangman taunted as he racked the balls.

“No. I’m afraid she’s gonna kick your ass and we’re gonna have to deal with your pouting for the rest of the week.” Phoenix laughed.

You took the pool cue from Coyote and walked around the pool table. “Ladies first.” Hangman smirked. You break the balls, send the 2 and 4 balls into pockets and walk around the table to the 1 ball. You quickly sink the ball into the corner pocket. Following the cue ball, you line it up with the 3 and sinks that ball. Sinking the 5 and 6 balls in pockets and starting to line up for your next shot, when you glance over to Phoenix and motion for her to come over. Mumbling softly to her to finish the game for you. “I need to get some fresh air. Kick his ass.”

You hand Phoenix your pool cue and step outside to the side deck. You lean against the railing, taking deep breaths of the cool salty air. Closing your eyes and hanging your head as you listen to the waves crash against the sand. You weren’t sure how long you stood there but you heard the hollering and felt a presence beside you. You glance up and see that Bob has joined you. He placed a hand on your shoulder, looking concerned. “You okay Y/N?”

You shivered slightly as he said your name. The way it just rolled off his tongue made you feel like everything in the world was going to be alright. “Yeah, I’m fine. Sometimes I just gotta step away from the loudness of everything.”

Bob nodded and leaned against the railing with you. “I get that. It can become suffocating and overwhelming.”

You nod in agreement, shifted towards him. “Yeah. Sometimes I start to get a headache if it’s too loud. But I just needed some fresh air. It was feeling it a bit stuffy.” You pulled out your phone and noticed the time. “Shit. I should head back to my hotel. I didn’t realize the time.”

You started to head back inside, Bob following behind you and you find Phoenix talking to Fanboy. “Nat, I’m gonna head back to my hotel.”

Phoenix notices the time and nods. “Okay. How are you getting there? I can drive you back.”

You shook your head. “No, you stay here with your squad Nats. I’ll just get an Uber.”

Phoenix’s eyes widen. “Nope. No way. Not this late.”

Bob quickly spoke up from behind you. “I can drive you back to your hotel.”

You turned and looked up at him. “You don’t have to do that. I’m really fine with getting an Uber.”

Phoenix shook her head. “Uber is out of the question. Not this late.”

“Umm not winning this argument, am I?” You sigh and start to gather your things.

“Nope, you aren’t.” Phoenix hugs you and mouths a ‘Thank you’ to Bob.

You hug Phoenix back tightly. “I’ll text you when I get back to my hotel and I’ll let you know what happens after the meeting at Caroline’s. Love you Nats.”

“Love you too, Y/N.” You make your rounds and bid everyone a good night, following Bob out into the parking lot. He led you to his truck, opening the door for you. You slid in and buckled as he closed the door.

You didn’t notice as Phoenix and Fanboy watched from the window and gave each other a fist bump.

“Which hotel are you staying at?” Bob asked as he started his truck.

You told him the hotel and address and he headed off in the direction of the hotel. It was a short ride there and you hopped out of Bob’s truck as he parked. Turning off his truck, he slid out and walked beside you into the hotel.

“Thank you, Bob, for the ride. You don’t need to walk me to my door.” You smiled as you waited for the elevator.

“What kind of man would I be if I didn’t make sure a pretty woman made it to her door safely?” Bob mumbled shyly.

You both entered the elevator, you pressed the button for the 4th floor and waited for the doors to close. “And Phoenix would probably kick your ass if you didn’t, right?”

Bob let out a laugh and nodded. “Yeah, she probably would.”

You exited the elevator to the right and walked a short way to your hotel door. “This is me. Thank you again Bob. You really didn’t have to go thru all this trouble.”

“No trouble at all Y/N. I was going to be leaving soon anyways.” Bob smiled. “I.. umm.. could I text or call you sometime?”

You grinned and held out your hand, nodding. “I’d like that. Let me see your phone.”

Bob unlocked his phone and handed it to you. You added your number to his contacts and sent yourself a text. “Now we have each other's numbers.” You handed him his phone back, leaning up and kissed his cheek. “Good night, Bob.”

Bob’s cheeks flushed pink, and he stuttered, clearing his throat. “Good night, Y/N. And good luck tomorrow.”

You tapped your key card against your door, opening it and turned on the lights. You turned and smiled back at him. “Thank you, Bob.”

Slowly closing the door behind you, making sure to lock it and flopping onto your bed. Bob stayed outside your door until he heard it lock and headed back towards the elevators. You sent Nat a quick text that you were at the hotel before plugging in your phone and getting ready for bed. You drifted off to sleep, thinking about the meeting in the morning and when you were gonna see Bob again.

This kamarkasa with stich buttons is in Camouflage colour and made of the best quality fabric whichguarantees long durability. Easy to fasten/unfasten and adjust size with thestitch buttons. Thekamarkasa has always been essential in the dress attire of Gursikhs as it issign of being battle ready. Giani Gian Singh describes Singhs in his PanthPrakash of usually just wearing a Dumalla, Kachera and a kamarkasa, withsometimes blankets to cover them from the cold. In the sakhi of Sukha Singh in Panth Prakash, Rattan Singh Bhangoo describes BhSukha Singh as such: ਕਮਰ ਕੱਸਾ ਨਿਸ ਦਿਨ ਰਖੇ, ਲੜਣ ਘੁਲਨ ਕੋ ਤਯਾਰ ॥ His battlefield Kamarkasa [Weapons belt] was tied tightly day and night, SukhaSingh was always ready to battle and wrestle. Those with the knowledge of Shastar-vidiya know how important the kamarkasaplays in drawing their weapon quickly. Whereas a gathra requires the effortfrom both hands to draw their weapon, the kamarkasa allows for the drawing of aweapon with one hand. When entering Guru Sahibs Darbar we should tie aKamarkasa along with Hazooria. Kavi Santokh Singh jee has said in Suraj Prakash that Kamarkasa is veryessential as is part of Khalsa Bana. Kavi jee writes a great line in his workstating that Gursikhs of Sri Guru Gobind Singh jees time always wore Kamarkasa. ਕਮਰ ਕਸਾ ਕਰਿ ਦੇਹੁ ਦਿਖਾਈ । ਹਮਰੀ ਖੁਸ਼ੀ ਹੋਇ ਅਧਿਕਾਈ । When showing yourself to me have your Kamar Kasa tied, in such a way I shall beextremely happy And those that would not tie one Guru Sahib wouldn't take notice of them. ਕਮਰ ਕਸੇ ਬਿਨ ਜੋ ਸਿਖ ਜਾਇ । ਤਿਸ ਪਰ ਰੁਖ ਨਹਿ ਕਰੈਂ ਕਦਾਇ ।।੧੦।। Those Sikhs who went towards the Guru without wearing a Kamarkasa ,Guru Sahibwould never look towards them. This shows the very importance of Kamarkasa, it is really only the Nihang Dalsthat have kept this Rehat alive, all others have become weak in thisTatt-Rehat. We should strive to follow all Gur-Hukams, Guru Sahib jee MeharKaran. ਸਿੰਘ ਰੂਪ ਸ਼ਸਤ੍ਰਨ ਜੁਤਿ ਹੇਰੈਂ । ਹੋਤਿ ਗੁਰੂ ਕੀ ਖੁਸ਼ੀ ਬਡੇਰੈ । The appearance of a Singh/Singhni is complete with weapons (Hazooria &Kamarkasa aswell), when Guru Sahib jee see's this He becomes extremely happy.

Come back to me

A very interesting idea I had, inspired by a horror game somewhat.

After the lostbelts were over with Mash went on to live a mostly normal life in Japan with her other senpais. She had lost her servant powers but was still a relatively skilled fighter. She kept contact with her oldest senpai Rex too. But recently for some reason no one had been able to contact him. No phone calls or texts or emails or anything.

Eventually Mash did receive a text, it was from his number but she could tell it wasn't his words.

Text: help your senpai... come to Mexico. Please. Come alone

Mash knew something was wrong so she decided to go see what happened.

When she arrived at Rex and Quetz's home , during a storm, it was a wreck. Windows shattered, roof partially missing. Something went wrong.

Mash, busting open the door: senpai! Are you in here?!

She didn't hear anything.

Mash: where are you? Senpai!

Eventually a voice was heard from another room

???: Mash?! What are you doing here?

Mash: senpai, I got a message from your phone.

Rex: what?! How the hell?

Eventually Rex came out to meet Mash. He was a wreck. His clothes torn, his face had a long unkempt beard. He looked like he gone crazy

Mash: senpai? What happened to you?

Rex: ...I lost her

Mash: Quetzalcoatl? What happened? How?

Rex: I-I rather not talk about it. I've been trying to get her back for so long now.

Mash: ...how? Without Chaldea or a grail you can't summon a servant so easily.

Rex: ...come with me, I'll show you.

They went upstairs to the attic, passing by a broken door. What Mash saw was a horrid sight. Skeletons all over the place. Pictures of the couple all over, tho most were damaged. And in the center was a bloody magic circle with an altar nearby and Rex's catalyst. Along with the dress Quetz wore on their wedding day.

Mash: ...senpai... what have you been doing?

Mash was horrified by what she saw. What happened to her senpai? Did losing the love of his life damage him so much? Could this also have come from the stress of having to protect the world from before?

Rex: I NEED her Mash. There's been foolish mages snooping about lately. No doubt because the bounded field went down after I lost her.

The former master talked like he was deranged but also in a very sad manner aswell. It was clear he had gone off the deep end.

Rex: mages are a very good source of mana. So I've been using them to slowly collect enough to get her back again.

Mash: senpai this isn't right! You can't do this just because she's gone. I'm sorry for your loss but you can't go around d killing people.

Rex: I don't care! I NEED her! She was my everything! My entire world! Now she's gone!

Rex: ...you know. I even contemplated ending me myself to maybe get back to her. The only reason I don't is because it would break her heart.

Mash: senpai what you're doing now would break her heart! You really think she wants to see you in this state?

Rex got a funny look in his eye, as if he just realized something. Something he shouldn't have.

Rex: ...y'know. You must have a decent amount of mana yourself.

Mash: ...what are you saying?

Rex: you were made to hold a servant, you had one in you for the longest time. You even became your own servant essentially later on. I'm sure the amount of mana you hold would be more then enough to finally help get her back.

Mash: senpai! Stop! You don't know what you're saying

Rex: I know exactly what I'm saying. Won't you help your sen-

But before he could finish, Mash knocked him down with the broken door from earlier. He was unconscious.

Mash: I'm sorry senpai. But you're not thinking straight.

Then out of nowhere she heard a sound from her phone

Mash: huh? *looking at her phone*

???: hello? Is this working?

Mash: BB?

BB: hello Mash. Long time no see.

Mash: what are you doing in my phone?

BB: I put myself in from Senpai's devices.

Mash: huh? You were with him?

BB: kind of, after everything ended I decided to follow him. Make his life easier while still being able to bully him a bit. He never knew it was me tho. I just pretended to be Siri or Alexa or whatever.

Mash: so you essentially reincared but as a simple ai?

BB: basically. But now I need your help to help our senpai.

Mash: did you send me that message?

BB: yup. It took forever since most devices have been damaged by lightning. For some reason it's been storming way more often lately.

Mash: what do you want me to do?

BB: first off, you need to put senpai away for the time being. He'll only make things more difficult.

After Mash tied him up she locked him into his room.

Mash: now what's the plan?

BB: what he intended to do but in a not so bloody fashion.

Mash: how exactly?

BB: I actually had something we could use hidden a bit away from the house.

Mash: really?!

BB: yeah, but thanks to same damage I couldn't tell senpai. And even now, he's so far gone I don't know how helpful he'll be to himself.

Mash: what do you have that can help?

BB: the last grail from our time at Chaldea.

Mash: seriously?! How the hell?

BB: it pays to think things ahead. I intended to use it to help get back to the mooncell when Senpai passed but this is an emergency.

Mash: what about when that does happen?

BB: we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Mash; why help anyways?

BB: silly Mash, the same reason you're helping. I care about Senpai. I just show it differently. But now's not the time for these things.

Eventually Mash was outside digging up the hidden grail. It was locked in a box with a code.

Mash: it's locked.

BB: to keep it safe from mages. If they got their hands on it who know what would happen.

Mash: what's the code?

BB: 1231

Mash, trying it out: got it! There's the grail.

BB: great! Now to get back to the circle

Then the earth shakes

Mash: what the hell?

???: MASH!!!!

Mash: senpai?!

Rex?: get back here! I still need your mana!

BB: oh no! I didn't think he'd go that far.

Mash: what do you mean?

BB: senpai never fully got rid of his pseudo-servant powers. He and Quetz just locked them away. But he unlocked them again ever since he lost her.

Mash: really?!

BB: yeah, it's how he's been killing the magi in the first place

Cipatli Rex: MASH!!!

Mash: we gotta get back before he finds us

BB: cut through the forest. It's thick enough he might not see you so easily.

Mash: ok!

Mash ran through the nearby forest in an attempt to get to the house without getting caught by the monster that was her senpai.

Cipatli Rex: get over here! Why won't you help me!?

Mash eventually made it to the house, it seemed the storm was raging even more all of a sudden.

Finally she made it to the attic, tho it seemed Rex figured out where she was.

Cipatli Rex: I'll get her back! No matter who I have to sacrifice!

BB: hurry! Start the ritual before he gets here!

Mash: on it!

Mash was ready to start the ritual, only for some bad luck to appear. Lightning struck and ended up destroying the catalyst and starting a small fire.

Mash: NO! The catalyst!

As she says this she stomps out the flames.

BB: now how do we summon her?!

Mash: there's still a chance she could come!

BB: but we could end up with someone else! Maybe even someone who would make things worse. We need another catalyst!

Mash: wait a minute! The wedding dress!

BB: oh yeah! That'll do it!

Mash: this probably has even stronger attachment to her then the feathe ever did.

Mash placed the dress at the center of the circle. Starting up the ritual. As the circle starts up Rex finally busts in

Cipatli Rex: there we are!! Wait, you started it up! How?

Mash: that's not important right now!

The summoning ritual starts up, the pillar of light forming, showing the rider class card.

Rex reverted back to his normal self. With the hope of finally seeing his wife again

The light subsided and there she was.

Quetz: mi amor? What happened to you?

Rex broke down, hugging her the tightest he possibly could.

Rex: you're here! You're finally here! It's been so painful without you!

Quetz: it's ok, everything's going to be ok.

Eventually, Rex was taken to therapy. His mental state was still shattered and he needed time to recover. But with Quetz back, he could start the path to recovery.

Rex: ...I did terrible things. I felt empty without her. I was so desperate to be with her again, no sacrifice was too much.

Kiara: hmmm, it seems that maybe losing her was the breaking point after having to endure the trauma you faced while saving the world.

Rex: you think so?

Kiara: she had always been your biggest comfort, so her loss must've been too much and without help you snapped. But don't worry, we'll work to get you in a better place.

A/N: so like I said at the beginning this was inspired partly by a horror game. This story is a kind of what if scenario, this isn't canon with the main events of the RexCoatl timelines. But it was still very interesting to explore.

An iPhone makes it virtually impossible to get lost. There is a maps app integrated into your phone when you purchase it, and it will allow you to check your location wherever you have service. This is great for helping you get back home or visiting a new place you haven't seen yet.

You probably spend a lot of time reading scrollable content on your iPhone, but you might not know about this feature. When you've scrolled down on a page, you can return to the top simply by tapping your phone's status bar. This can be very helpful, and once you're familiar with the feature, you may find yourself using it all the time.

You may want to opt for a larger keyboard to make surfing the Internet easier. You can get this added value without purchasing an expensive accessory! Simply turn your iPhone horizontal and touch the address bar. Your keyboard is larger and easier to use for fast and efficient typing.

Certain iPhones can be set up to connect to Wi-Fi, although some setup is required. The benefits of the connectivity is obvious, because you can access the internet away from home with your iPhone. This a great advantage to business people because they can check their messages while they are away from their office.

If you are searching the internet on your iPhone, click the forward arrow on the middle bottom to forward the link to the page that you are on to your email address. This can be very useful if you are searching your iPhone for important articles and do not have enough space to store them all.

One of the ways that you can personalize your iPhone is to change the wallpaper in the front and main screens on your iPhone. You can select from existing wallpapers that Apple creates or chooses from your camera roll, where you will be able to choose from the photos that you have saved..

If you're a business person, it can be extremely beneficial for you to have an iPhone for work. Not only will you be able to call and text your colleagues from anywhere, but you can also send emails, visit work sites, and access important data from anywhere at any time.

To get personal with your iPhone and Siri, try teaching Siri your family's names. For instance, you can teach Siri your spouse's name. Then instead of speaking out your spouse's full name when you want to call him or her, you can say instead "Call my husband" or "Call my wife." It's much more personable!

You can check where links will take you to by slightly pressing on them instead of tapping. This is the equivalent of hovering your mouse over an element displayed by your computer; you will see more information about the links you touched. Always check links you receive in your emails, especially if you do not know the sender.

If you drop your iPhone into something wet, don't panic. Leave it off and simply dry it gently with a towel. Then grab a zipper storage bag or bowl and submerge the phone in some uncooked white rice. The rice will help draw out the moisture that is trapped inside the phone.

When you open your email inbox on your iPhone, you'll usually see the first couple of lines of each message displayed in the list. Depending on your personal style, you may feel more comfortable with more or less preview information. Fortunately, you have lots of control over this feature. Just go to the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars section of your Settings and tap Preview. You can set the preview for anything from five lines down to zero.

There are several shortcuts to taking pictures with your iPhone. One of these helps you quickly snap a shot by just pressing a button. Once you have positioned your iPhone on your subject, simply press the volume-up button on the side of the phone. This will snap a picture right away.

Turn on character count in your text message settings. Not everyone has an iPhone. A simple tweak in the settings will turn on your word count. Leaving the SMS character count visible on your phone will help you be more considerate when texting friends or family without iPhone of their own.

Tap cancel to save an email message. You will see a dialog box asking you if you want to save your draft for later. Your message will be dropped into the Drafts folder if you hit "Save." If Drafts isn't available, one will be created following it.

When you are typing a text message on the iPhone, you can select the whole body of text by holding down your finger on the sentence for approximately three seconds and clicking select all. This will give you the ability to delete or copy the whole set of text that you have selected.

A good tip if you own an iPhone is to take advantage of any free apps you can. You don't have to pay an arm and a leg to have some cool apps on your phone. There are many that you can download for free just make sure you check the reviews first.

If you are like most iPhone owners, you love taking photos with the device. However, would you like to have the option to preview the picture you just took? You can by following this simple procedure. After you take the photo, start on the left of the screen and drag your finger to the right. This will show you a preview of the last picture you took.

Learning The Ins And Outs Of The iPhone

Using an iPhone is treasured by many, but some find it to be annoying. You may feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of applications available and tools you can use with your iPhone. Keep reading this article to get a good idea of how to get the most out of your phone.

You don't need to hit the Shift button following the end of a sentence on an iPhone. The phone automatically uses a capital letter for the next word following the space after an ending punctuation mark. You can override this feature by going to Settings, looking under General, and going to Keyboard. Locate Auto-Capitalization and turn it off.

If you are trying to clean up your iPhone screens by placing apps in folders, try placing the folder you are working on in your bottom app bar. This way, the folder stays with you no matter what page you are on. You no longer have to drag that folder from page to page as you clean up your apps.

Aviation enthusiasts will love this iPhone trick. First, you must make sure that Location Services are enabled in the phone's Settings app. Next, instruct Siri to ask Wolfram which flights are overhead. Siri will then use data from the Wolfram Alpha search engine to provide you with detailed information about any nearby flight.

If you are working in one app and want to return to an app you were previously using, take advantage of app switcher. App switcher is accessed when you tap twice on the home button. You will see all of your recently opened apps, and can easily switch from one to the other.

Experiment with scrolling while looking at webpages. You might find it easier to scroll with one finger or two, depending on what you are looking at. If boxes were used to design the webpage, you will be able to scroll through only one box if you use one finger. You'll find that using two fingers will increase the speed at which you can look through webpage content that is not visible all at once on the screen of your phone.

As a default setting, incoming messages are previewed on your iPhone's lock screen. This is something that some find convenient, but others do not like so much. You can disable this feature. Access settings, select "notifications" and then enter the "messages" option. The feature you want to disable is called Show Preview.

Your iPhone has an on-board calculator that can take all of the guesswork out of any basic math that you run into. It's available in standard form if it's held vertically, but can become a scientific calculator if it's held horizontally.

When in a call with someone, take advantage of the mute button. The mute button is located on the top left when you are in a call and will prevent the person on the other end of the line from hearing your voice. If you need to talk to someone else while on the phone, this is a great time to use this function.

Usmilewireless is providing iPhone screen repairing services in Orlando. Usmilewireless is a team of professional and experienced technicians who are serving in mobile repairing industry from many decades.

When you are scrolling down the screen viewing long list or web page on your iPhone, there is a quick way to return to the beginning. Instead of swiping over and over again to scroll back up, simply tap the bar at the top of your screen. This will take you back to the top of the page right away.

Having trouble finding a specific app over the pages and pages of your iPhone? Try using the "Search iPhone" feature. Simply click your home button once (or twice if you are off of your first screen) to get to the search feature. Then start typing the name of the app you are looking for. This also works for finding a contact, a scheduled meeting and even specific emails.

If you use your iPhone to store huge numbers of contacts, songs, email and websites, you may find it time-consuming to scroll from the end of the list to the beginning. Save time by double-tapping the clock icon at the top of the screen. This will immediately take you to the very top of the list.

If your iphone freezes completely you do have options for getting it going again. First, you can take out the battery and then replace it and give it a try after that. If that does not work you can hold down the start and menu buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds to get it to reboot.

If it is crucial that you receive notifications on your iPhone, you can use LED flash. To use this feature, all you need to do is go to "settings," then tap on "general" and finally "accessibility." Just turn the slider on for "LED Alerts for Notifications." You will see the LED light go on the next time you receive a notification.

Your iPhone can be used to send valuable pictures to your family and/or friends. There are two different ways you can achieve this. First, save the picture and attach it to your email. Alternatively, go to Facebook and upload it for all to see.

Create your own ringtones for a truly personalized phone. The Ringtone Maker app is free of charge to use. You can make ringtones from you favorite clips of songs. Doing so is possible within seconds, and you can choose tunes appropriate to each person or number you assign each ringtone to.

You can get through contacts with your fingers, but you can do something else that does not require flicking. Put your finger right on the list. Then, you just slide up and down. You will have more control over the list, which is especially helpful if you have a large number of contacts.

You can't own an iPhone without realizing that it offers a great deal of features. But, if you have become overwhelmed by the options, you may fail to get the most use out of your device. Put the advice you have read here to good use in optimizing all that your iPhone can do for you.

Thekamarkasa has always been essential in the dress attire of Gursikhs as it issign of being battle ready.

In the sakhi of Sukha Singh in Panth Prakash, Rattan Singh Bhangoo describes BhSukha Singh as such: ਕਮਰ ਕੱਸਾ ਨਿਸ ਦਿਨ ਰਖੇ, ਲੜਣ ਘੁਲਨ ਕੋ ਤਯਾਰ ॥ His battlefield Kamarkasa [Weapons belt] was tied tightly day and night, SukhaSingh was always ready to battle and wrestle. Those with the knowledge of Shastar-vidiya know how important the kamarkasaplays in drawing their weapon quickly. Whereas a gathra requires the effortfrom both hands to draw their weapon, the kamarkasa allows for the drawing of aweapon with one hand. When entering Guru Sahibs Darbar we should tie aKamarkasa along with Hazooria. Kavi Santokh Singh jee has said in Suraj Prakash that Kamarkasa is veryessential as is part of Khalsa Bana. Kavi jee writes a great line in his workstating that Gursikhs of Sri Guru Gobind Singh jees time always wore Kamarkasa. ਕਮਰ ਕਸਾ ਕਰਿ ਦੇਹੁ ਦਿਖਾਈ । ਹਮਰੀ ਖੁਸ਼ੀ ਹੋਇ ਅਧਿਕਾਈ । When showing yourself to me have your Kamar Kasa tied, in such a way I shall beextremely happy And those that would not tie one Guru Sahib wouldn't take notice of them. ਕਮਰ ਕਸੇ ਬਿਨ ਜੋ ਸਿਖ ਜਾਇ । ਤਿਸ ਪਰ ਰੁਖ ਨਹਿ ਕਰੈਂ ਕਦਾਇ ।।੧੦।। Those Sikhs who went towards the Guru without wearing a Kamarkasa ,Guru Sahibwould never look towards them. This shows the very importance of Kamarkasa, it is really only the Nihang Dalsthat have kept this Rehat alive, all others have become weak in thisTatt-Rehat.
