"So we strollin' first, or eatin'? Strollin' ta where we wanna be eatin'?" Birch grinned as she motioned to the covered wicker basket on the elbow of the same arm that currently held her piglet's leash. She'd actually taken a long time that morning getting ready, knowing she'd be going from classroom right into their date, butterflies swirling in her stomach the entire day.

They'd been texting most of the day, and her excitement had only grown, so now as she walked out to the very welcome sight of him outside the doors of the elementary, she couldn't help but be all smiles.

"Hey there, Matty, look at you grillin and shit." Flipping her hair over her shoulder, she stole a little tap of a touch to his arm as she spread her blanket out on the bench behind him. "That for me?" Motioning to the bottle of water next to him, she made sure when she sat that he'd have a view of all her best angles. He'd become her white whale, and she knew it was only a matter of time before he'd take the bait. "Where'd your cowgirl go?"

It had beena fairly long morning trying to get her kids to sit still, but she'd saved the best for last. Neylani was killing it with her talk about being a police officer, but she knew the last presentation would be the one to truly catch the children's wavering attention. Stepping out of the classroom as Ney started the question and answer part, Birch had to stop herself from pausing for a moment at just how handsome the firefighter who'd shown up was. Maybe it was the uniform, or maybe his jawline?

"O-Oh, Um, Sorry, I'm just real frazzled, it'd been a busy day. I'm Miss Birch or Miss Rose, it's really up to you. You're our fire fighter, right?"

As if the signature fireproof get up wasn't a dead give away, but she was still stuck on his smile and fighting a losing battle against her blush as she held out a hand for him to shake. "You must be cookin' in all that gear, I'll have'ta open up some windows b'fore you come in. Make sure ya get ya a good ol' breeze."
