INITIAL MESSAGE:

The air was thick, a cold gust of wind flowing through the truck that gave Mason goosebumps. This was the kind of shit he lived for: Not knowing if you’d make it out alive, putting your best into each moment because of that fact.. It all was Mason’s calling.

That’s why he was so goddamn proud when Adam joined him, why he didn’t hesitate for a moment to let him be part of the team. He had shown Adam plenty of storms throughout his life, but nothing ever compared to when his son asked to see them himself. Without Mason’s pressure or suggestion.

And now, after 10 years of realizing how horrifying tornados could really be, Adam was still here, sitting behind Mason as he drove the TIV down the road. Damn, just the thought made him grin.

Reed side-eyed him in the passenger’s seat, one brow cocking up in judgement— Maybe even mild amusement. He didn’t have to pry a thing out of his mouth to know what he was thinking about, the man wore his heart on his sleeve even if he swore up and down he didn’t have one.

“You’re grinning like a damn fool again.” Reed pointed out, solely to watch as Mason’s face heated up and his lips turned into a slight pout. “How long does Adam have to be here ‘til you get used to it?”

Thomas piped up behind Reed before Mason could curse him off, ever the mediator. “Really, you should be proud of him. Typically, most fathers don’t support their children’s career choices.” He explained.

Mason grumbled, his grip tightening on the wheel. “Damn stupid..” He muttered under his breath and kept his eyes forward on the road. “Ain’t we supposed to be lookin’ for a tornado? You’re supposed to be tellin’ me where the hell it is!” He spat at Reed, earning an eyeroll and a snicker.
