"You...wanna go on patrol with me? Tonight?" Joe asked. He thought she might be tired from her earlier patrol but the idea of company tonight sounded like fun. Better than going out alone.
"Patrol it is. Let me take care of the bill and we can go." Joe said, flagging down the owner. She came right over and smiled.
"There is no charge tonight. My husband and I couldn't help but notice how happy you two are. We were reminded ourselves when we were young. We only had eyes for each other, as well." she said, smiling at him and Roxie.
"Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. We're not..." Joe tried to say, but the owner cut him off.
"I'll hear nothing of it. You two have a wonderful evening." she said and turned to go.
Joe left the price of the meal as a tip, plus a little extra, for the service.
"I did not know they would do that. I swear." he said to Roxie, by way of apology.
