Since you never wanted to get involved in Panic you knew that you had to take up a summer job somewhere in Carp if you wanted to go to your dream college.

When you started looking for a job you really didn't have many options, no one was hiring new employees except Dot's diner.

You knew that Dodge worked there, but you hadn't spoken to him before - in school, he was kind of an outcast and you were a bit shy so you two didn't have a chance to have a real conversation.

But you knew him by sight and had to admit that you always found him attractive.

On your first day working at Dot's, you were worried that he would get annoyed with you for having to explain to you how everything worked there. Besides, you had always perceived him as a bit intimidating before because he seemed so unapproachable .

But from the moment you walked into Dot's, he was very patient with you - teaching you how to make the best coffee you've ever had, how to prepare the cold drinks and dishes served in the diner. When you happened to forget how to do something, he carefully explained it to you again.

After a few days, you began to really enjoy spending time at Dot's, working there with Dodge. Sometimes, when the diner was already closed, you both would grab your favorite sodas and just sit at the bar, talking about your plans for the future.

At first, Dodge was distrustful and somewhat suspicious of your willingness to talk to him - that's the way he's always been with people, but you truly wanted to be friends with him.

For a while, he was almost certain that you were a judge in Panic, who was just trying to learn more about his life and his weaknesses.

But you were really persistent and eventually, step by step, you won his trust and convinced him that your intentions were sincere and that you just wanted to be friends with him.

Gradually you became Dodge's best friend - actually his only friend at Carp. You were the first person in town he told about his rodeo hobby and about his family.

The two of you began to really enjoy each other's company, one cloudless night you even went to the roof of the Dot's with some blankets to sit on and watched the stars over the Carp.

But back to working at Dot's. While you were doing your daily tasks, whether serving customers at the bar or just cleaning tables, sometimes you glanced at Dodge just to admire how good he looked.

After a while, you surprisingly often would catch him glaring at you too when he thought you didn't see it.

Soon you realized that you not only found Dodge attractive but you actually started to catch feelings for him.

One day you came to work ready to confess to Dodge that you like him, but he surprised you. After a long day spent serving clients and thoroughly cleaning the whole diner you two were sitting at the bar sipping iced tea. Suddenly he asked if you wanted to go out with him next weekend.

You were genuinely shocked, you just managed to ask him simply: "Are you … are you taking me on a date?" You immediately regretted that you were so blunt. You were sure that he would think you had gone crazy.

He just smirked.

"If you want it to be a date, I am all in."

His words left you speechless. That evening, coming home from Dot's you were beyond happy and looking forward more than ever to another day at work with Dodge.
