After the events
The Inline Fuel and Café was quiet, more so as the solemn mode hung over the group of vehicles there. The recent events having taken their toll on the group, bringing down most of their spirits as they sat around the pumps. The softly sipped at their drinks, soft mumbles coming from the group as the other regulars sat away from the group, not wanting to upset them any further than they were already. The mood around them did not help them either, as it was an over casted cool day, the sun hidden by the clouds over them, casting the ground in cool grayness.
“Anyone word on when those two will be able to work Rodger?” asked one of the group, A large faded black and silver Semi. One of the group shook their hood, sighing softly in the process.
“No we don’t Ryan; they are on leave until they are cleared to be able to work. It could be a week from now, or a year. We have no idea and it’s starting to bring them down knowing they’re stuck in traction for the future” grumbled the car, an older model Caprice. The other vehicle of the group whined softly, sinking down to its frame as he held the can of Apple oil in front of it.
“I miss Jaslo” he said softly, Rodger giving the smaller vehicle a soft nuzzle as the kid stared at his drink.
“We all do Shayne, Don’t worry. She’ll be back soon. She promised, and after the shit show with her boss, I am pretty sure they will listen to any demands she gives. Who knows huh, maybe she’ll be stationed up it permanently. Wouldn’t that be good?”” Rodger stated, earning a soft whine from the Mustang, all the while Ryan rolled his eyes.
“Don’t get his hopes up Rodger like that; big cities like hers like to fuck over anyone they can. They won’t just bend to what she wants sadly. If we do see her, I’ll be surprised” he grumped, earning a sigh from the Caprice as he sipped some of his drink.
“I know, I can be hopeful right though?” he said softly, sighing. He felt an antenna roll across his hood, softly patting it. He looked up, seeing Ryan give a soft smile as his CB antenna came back into original position.
“It’s alright man, Y’all will pull through this. This valley has seen worse, and you guys will recover from this and be better for it alright?” he stated sharply, earning a nod from the Caprice.
“Thanks Ryan, I appreciate it” Rodger replied, earning a smile from the Semi before he turned his attention to the smaller Mustang.
“How’s the kid doing? I’ve heard from the local rumor mill that he was getting kind of close to the Blazer” he said, a soft whine escaping from Shayne at the mention of Jaslo. Rodger gave him another nuzzle, smiling softly before turning his attention back to Ryan.
“Depends on how the rumor mill is spinning it I suppose, though knowing them it’s a lot more sexual than what was actually happening” he said chuckling as Ryan gave a huff and rolled his eyes.
“Of course it is, they spin anything and make it sexual. For fucks sake they tried to say Vic and Jaslo were fucking. They just blab and blab and cars eat right up as if it’s the god damn fucking truth” he growled, earning a smirk from Rodger.
“I’m not surprised honestly. But Shayne and Jaslo relationship wasn’t anything sexual in nature, if anything I think the kid was starting to see Jaslo as a mom” he started to say, a louder whimper coming from the Mustang next to him. Rodger gave Shayne another nuzzle, purring his engine softly at him to calm the kid back down as tears started to form in his eyes. “It’s gonna be okay Shayne, She’ll be back soon. I promise you that” he softly said, as Shayne sniffled, softly nodding as he tried to hold the tears back. Ryan gave a soft chuckle at the scene, smiling widely as Rodger continue to keep Shayne calm.
“Kid needs it than, Glad Jaslo could be a positive influence on him. Especially with all you deviants at the station” he said smirking as Rodger gave a huff, returning to his drink as Shayne softly sipped his, finally starting to calm back down.
“We ain’t all bad” he mumbled, earning a bark of laughter from the semi.
“ Don’t you lie, The only one I would trust in a dark alley is Vic, I swear you and your brother would jump my chassis if given a chance, and I rather not bash your frames in for that” he smirked, earning a huff from the Caprice.
“You’ll attractive I’ll give you that” he mumbled, yelping as he felt a antenna smack across his hood.
“I appreciate the comment, but I already told ya I don’t swing that way little car. Sorry to disappoint the fantasies again” he stated with a chuckle, Rodger groaning as he focused on his drink, a blush across his hood.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don’t remind me you asshole” he grumbled, Ryan chuckling softly as the cop continued to drink, quite easily embarrassed as he did so.
“So with Vic down than, You the sheriff?” asked Ryan, Rodger sighing in response and Shayne softly shaking his hood.
“No, the county said I was not qualified enough” he grumbled softly as he took a large slurp from the can in front of him.
“They s-said he wasn’t qua-alified enough” mumbled Shayne as he also continued to sip, the sound of a drink almost gone becoming more evident from the boys direction. Ryan tilted softly, a puzzled expression stretched across his eyes and bumper as he looked at Ryan.
“Then who the fuck is the sheriff than, you can’t run a county on one cop around here nowadays. There’s to much traffic around the parts for you to be everywhere Rodger, and your Brother is stuck in traction for at least another month if what you told me is correct” Ryan stated, earning a nod from the Caprice as he frowned.
“That’s why according to them, they will be bringing a temporary replacement from up north of the pass. Some older Ram called Oliver. He’s apparently a new Sheriff in the town up ahead of us here and since they have more than enough cops to patrol the top of the peak, He’s coming down here and helping us for a bit while one of his cops runs his department” Rodger grumbled, earning a long drawn out angry sigh from the Semi.
“Great, a fucking pencil pusher probably. Last thing we need in this valley is someone who has their pipes so far up their own ass they can taste it” he growled, earning a chuckle from Rodger and a soft smile from Ryan.
“Well if he tries and change the things around here, I can guarantee it will not end well. Probably with him dragged into the forest. People around here really like how things are, and the last thing anyone wants is some hotshot trying to change things” replied Rodger, earning a nod from Ryan.
“Oh yeah, Last thing I want is to bust some frames because someone decided the new guy needs to be taught the lesson. Last thing I’m gonna have is someone hurt in my town, especially if it’s Tony from my yard.” barked Ryan, stomping a tire on the ground for emphasis as other cars at the café.
“I know what you mean, I’m not gonna allow people to hurt the new guy, unless he’s a damn asshole. Last thing we need mixed up in all the sexual deviance here is for violence to occur” replied Rodger, earning a nod from Shayne.
“ I do-on’t want any-yone else hurt” he said softly, earning a sigh from both of the larger vehicles, and another nuzzle from the cop as a result.
“Exactly. Last thing anyone else needs is someone to go to jail cause of their stupidity” growled Ryan.
“I agree with you Ryan. I am going to do my best to make sure everything stays right as peaches here in town. I swore on my oath I would do so and I will be damned if anything here tries and change that” Rodger stated, his eyes narrowed in determination. Ryan chuckled, a soft rumble of his engine as he looked at the Caprice.
“Good, we are gonna need that type of attitude here with all the idiots around here” he said sharply.
“Yeah, well anyway I rather not be thinking about that right now. He’s supposed to be here any day now anyway so we’ll see when he gets here” he mumbled, pushing his now empty can of fuel away from him. “How’s the kid doing anyway Ryan, That van that moved here recently? I heard he has been making deliveries all over this mountain”
“ Kids a fucking speed demon that’s what. You order a part and within the hour, no matter where you have it. I’ve heard from some of the loggers further up the pass, way away from any actual roads that the kid has gotten them the part quick as all fucking heck. He is not afraid to bust ass on those trails, and he seems to get a kick outta doing it. Cade is a hard worker, we need more like him around here, instead of all the lazy fuckers that we seem to get nowadays” he replied, pushing his now empty can away as well.
“Well good, if he seems happy that I see no reason to try and stop that. Vic seems to have taken an interest in the kid, also so has Christine if I can remember. They treat him like a member of the family, even though he can’t be that much younger than Christine” quipped Rodger, earning a nod from the truck.
“ It’s a little strange how quick they took to him, but who am I to judge. Kid seems to have an innocence about him anyway, like he’s looking through the world through tinted glasses or something. At the end of the day, as long as he is happy and does his job, I could care less what he is doing” Ryan replied, Rodger shrugging before tossing his and Shayne’s can in the trash.
“I suppose that’s true. Me and Shayne need to head out, gonna have to help those two idiots at the station now fall on themselves. They have been pushing themselves way to hard it seems lately and they are going to reopen their wounds if they don’t stop. Come on Shayne, we need to head out” Rodger stated, Shayne softly nodding following after the Caprice, both turning and rejoining the road upwards to the station. Ryan mused softly, turning his attention to the clock at the café before looking down at the waitress.
“Eh, I have one more drink I guess” he said softly before slowly rumbling over to her to grab another cold drink. Overhead, the clouds began to slowly part, the sun slowly peeking out of the cloud cover, shining areas in the valley with its golden rays.
Like Ryan had said, the valley had experienced worse and had always rebounded back. This valley could and would recover back from this incident, and as a result would shine brighter in the basin.
The sun continued to shine, albit a bit brighter than usual for the residents
