“Owen, you ready for your first wildfire?” Sarah asked me as we unloaded the truck at the base camp in Escondido.

“Ready as I'll ever be, I guess,” I said.

Austin hadn't wanted me to tag along on the call. It was more than obvious by the way he acted toward me. He wasn't speaking to me, and would barely acknowledge my presence – though, that wasn't all that unusual. What was strange was the way he avoided speaking to anyone. For a change, it wasn't just me. Not that I expected anyone to be chipper, given the circumstances, but he seemed a little more distant and tenser than usual.

Truthfully though, Sarah was the only one who ever really talked to me. Overall, we got along fairly well. Both of us were fairly new to the field – though she had a year or so on me. We bickered, mostly because we were a lot alike. She would never admit it, but we were.

We came from two entirely different backgrounds, sure, but we were a lot alike personality-wise. That was why I was not surprised that she'd also disobeyed Austin's orders that day. Wes surprised me a bit, since he tended to do whatever the bossman said. Sarah, however, she had a mind of her own, and I appreciated that about her. Probably a hell of a lot more than she'd ever realize.

She hustled off toward the base camp, carrying her bags. Her tight ass in those jeans was a sight to behold, but I tried not to make it obvious I was staring. I was better than that. Wes might have gotten away with gawking and being obscene, but that was Wes. I was raised better than that. Didn't mean I couldn't admire her nice ass and firm body every chance I could get though – and I did. I just did it discreetly.

“There you are,” Luke said, pulling me away. “We need to go over a few things. Just make sure we're all on the same page.”

“Did Austin have you come talk to me, rather than talk to me himself?” I asked.

“Yes, and no,” Luke said. “It's fairly standard procedure. It's your first time out in the field, we want to make sure you have the necessary tools to get the job done and survive.”

“We both know I am not going anywhere near that fire, Luke,” I scoffed. “Let's face it, Austin is going to keep me back at the base camp, doing some shitty ass job like filing or some stupid shit.”

Luke didn't really argue, since we both knew I was probably right. If I were being honest with myself – and I usually tried to be – deep down, I also knew I wasn't ready to go out there with the likes of them. They had experience. I didn't. I'd never battled a wildfire before, and to be thrown into the thick of it right away could be dangerous. Believe it or not, I was more reasonable than Austin credited me with being.
