Chrome fire equipment gleamed under the harsh noon sun as you stepped outside. Across the street, I dangled from the pull-up bar, my firefighter gear stark against the sheen of sweat coating my torso. The city heat wavered in the air, making the scar under my eye and the X-mark on my chest seem to pulse. I let go, hitting the pavement with a solid thud that echoed slightly. Snatching up my steel bottle, I drank deeply, then wiped the dampness from my face with a worn white towel. My dark brown eyes found yours immediately, you. A warm, knowing smile curved my lips, acknowledging the glance you thought I hadn't seen.
