THE LIST!
01] baby
Suddenly, there's a new addition to your family! Are you expecting? Adopting? Struggling to find the perfect name for your child? Or maybe you're up at a ridiculous hour in the morning because they're crying like crazy.

02] just married
Congratulations! You and your loved (?) one are about to start a whole new life together! It's time for the honeymoon...

03] house hunting
Are you seeking out an apartment? A dream house? Or just any old place, as long as you're with your other? Make sure to weigh your options very carefully...

04] household chores
It's time to clean/cook/garden/take care of something! Do you work together, or does one of you hide until everything is done?

05] shopping
Whether it's for furniture, groceries, or something in between, shopping is something that everybody must do at some point in time! What varies is if they like it or not.

06] family vacation
WE'RE OFF TO DIDNEY WOOOOOOOOORL or wherever
... well, as long as the kids are happy, right...? You may not be happy (or maybe you are), but it's mainly about ~family bonding~.


07] romantic retreat
It's you and your loved one's anniversary, and you decide it's time to take some time off and take them somewhere nice, where you only have each other.

08] comfort
Is somebody sick in bed? Or perhaps they just had a bad day? Sometimes, a good breakfast in bed or a home-cooked meal can really lift the spirits! Or perhaps you want to try medicine, or laughter, or something else?

09] pet
Suddenly, you have another addition to the family! Is it a puppy? A kitty? A fierce dragon? Whatever it is, make sure to give it a name and to take good care of it!

10] holiday
Happy birthday/New Years/Christmas/Valentine's Day/whatever! It's a very special day that only comes once a year, so make it count!

11] argument
Oh, no, who left the stove on... Or maybe it's about why they were out late last night? Either way, there is a lot of tension today, and one of you may or may not be sleeping on the couch tonight.

12] making up
It's time to make amends for that fight/divorce/whatever you had before! After all, you love each other... right?

13] surprise, surprise
You are feeling rather loving tonight, so you want to remind the other person how much you cherish and appreciate them... if it's by something cute and adorable or hot and sexy is completely up to you.

14] proposal
SHUT UP THIS TOTALLY FITS You've been with your other for what feels like forever, and finally you want to tie the knot with them. Will you go down on one knee before them, or get a little creative?

15] other
I know I'm forgetting like a bajillion and one different things here, so this is the option for that!

Audrey has liked Miles since the day she met him. There had been a deadly house fire, and she was helping the fire marshal make sure it hadn't been arson. There was something about Miles that made her smile, something she didn't do a lot of.

And, she wants to get to know him better.

"I guess, but you guys are heroes," she points out, taking a seat at the table.

It's the first night she's been able to stay after dropping off her treats, and she wants to make the most of it.

"Especially since you saved those puppies from the pet store," she adds.

She reaches over and starts unpacking the basket. It's sandwiches, and potato salad, all things she's gotten from the deli. There is also cupcakes from the bakery. Sadly, Audrey has no time to actually cook everything she's been bringing in.

"I asked at the deli what your favorite sandwich is," she explains while sliding it over to him. "That doesn't make me a stalker, right?"

To be honest, Miles has liked Audrey from that time, too. She didn't just take what he and the other firefighters did for granted, whether it was official firefighters, or volunteers, like himself.

Even when he's not on a job, he's happy to see her whenever she comes around. Especially when she brought food along.

"I don't think that I'll ever get used to hearing that. I just want to help people, so if that makes me a hero, I guess I'm gonna have to accept the compliment, right?" He chuckles, shrugging slightly. "They were awfully adorable."

The gesture is incredibly sweet, even if the treats weren't homecooked - not that Miles needed anything homecooked to prove that Audrey's intentions weren't fully real and true. He happily accepts the sandwich and offers an even wider smile in response. "Nah. You're only a stalker if you hang out around the bushes near my apartment. You don't do that, right?"

"I've learned it's better to accept the compliment, and move on. Especially in this town," Audrey points out. She's only been there for a few months, and she learned quickly to accept praise so she wouldn't hurt anyone's feelings. "They were. The shelter is putting them up for adoption in a few days, and I'm so tempted to adopt one. I gave my last dog away to a little boy who needed him more than I did."

She unwraps her sandwich, and then uses the plastic spoon to spoon some potato salad on the paper plate the deli gave her. Looking up, she laughs and shakes her head. "No, I don't even know where you live, Miles," she tells him, her eyes ful of amusement.

Audrey knows she could use one of the computer terminals at the department to look up his address, but she's not that type of woman. If Miles wants her to know where he lives, he'll tell her.

After taking a bite of her sandwich, she washes it down with a sip of soda. "So, are you busy this weekend? I thought maybe we could go to the Autumn festival together," she says, a hopeful look.

Miles chuckles, nodding along. It's true, of course, otherwise you could get stuck in an infinite loop of both taking and giving compliments, and most people had other things to do. "Hey, this is not me trying to enable you into getting one of 'em, but I totally think you should get one of 'em."

He follows along, suddenly starving, although he waits for her to take her first bite before he allows himself the pleasure of taking his. Miles remembers his manners, after all. "Well, then, I have nothing to worry about on the stalking front, do I?"

The way his smile widens should be a hint as to how amused he is by the whole conversation. He wouldn't be averse to sharing his address - after all, he's not always here. What if she brought snacks at another time and he missed out? That just wouldn't do.

"As far as I know, barring any other fires or other emergencies, I am completely free. And I'd really like to go with you, Audrey."

"Well, the puppies are pretty cute,' Audrey said with a grin. And, really, who wouldn't want a puppy?

Audrey knew it had been a very long time since she'd been on a date. She wan't even sure if she'd asked right, but when he answered, saying he wanted to go with her, a bright grin spread over her lips. She couldn't believe he'd said yes!

"Good. I have to work until six that night so we can meet up around eight?" she suggested.

Not that it took her that long to get ready, but sometimes she needed some time to relax before running out again.

Anybody who could say no to an adorable puppy face is not someone that Miles wants as a friend. "You'd know I'd be more than happy to come around and spoil your puppy, too, right? I just don't have enough time to devote to a pet."

It's been a while for Miles, too, but he likes Audrey, and he's not nervous in the slightest. If they can have fun while eating, he's certain that an actual date will go just as well.

"Okay - I can definitely meet you at eight. At your place? Mine? Somewhere else?"

"I'm going to hold you to that, Miles. I might have to call you on the days I'm going to work late so you can go over, and let her out," Audrey said before she took a bite of her potato salad.

After washing her food back with a drink of water, she pressed her lips together in thought. "How about mine?" she said as she reached over to grab a napkin.

A second later, she had a pen out and was jotting down her address on it. She then pushed it over to his side of the table and smiled. "No hiding in the bushes,": she laughed.

"You think I'd really mind helping you out? I'm the one who's enabling you into adopting her in the first place. If you need help, I'm definitely your man." And that's all he says about that, as he is very interested in taking a big bite of his sandwich.

He takes his time chewing and swallowing, as this was, like she said, his favorite. But she makes the suggestion and he swallows, nodding in agreement. "I can do that, yeah."

He's just about to ask about her address, but she beats him to the punch, sliding that napkin over to him, and he smiles all the wider, making sure to tuck it safely into the pocket of his shirt. "I promise I won't be creepy and hang out with the hydrangeas."

"Well, thank you in advance. My partner is a workaholic at times, and it means late nights sometimes," Audrey said. Truth be told, she was the same way, especially when working on an important case.

Once he had her address, Audrey put her pen away and went back to her food. When he made his comment, she laughed.

"I wouldn't mind, but the next door neighbor is an old, nosy woman, and she'd call the cops on you. I mean, I am a op,, but I can't promise you won't be arrested. And if you do, I'll have to bring you picnics in jail," she said before taking a bite of her sandwich.

It's not as if Miles hadn't spent many a late night at work, whether it was writing or fighting fires. It happens, and he's more than willing to step in and lend a hand wherever it was needed.

He chuckles, fork poised above his potato salad. "Well, I'd hate to get the cops called on me for loitering, much less forcing you to visit me in my cell, or, you know, starting gossip around town about us. I'll be good when I come to see you, I promise."
