His brows knitted together. “Who else would it be with?”
My mouth curled into a guilty smile. “How old are you?”
His chin lifted slightly, as if he was proud of his intended response. “Thirty-one.”
I tilted my head to the side and widened my eyes playfully. “I’m forty-four.”
He pulled his right hand from his pocket and presented his empty palm. “If I had a cookie, I’d give you one. But, I’m fresh out.”
“It doesn’t bother you?”
His eyes thinned a little. “To be cookie-less?”
“No, smart-ass. That I’m thirteen years older than you.”
“I don’t give a fuck how old you are,” he said. “I like feisty women. You stomped your ex’s nuts in the driveway. That’s pretty feisty in my book.”
I scrunched my nose. “You want to take me out because I stomped Marvin’s nuts?”
“Yeah. There’s other reasons, too.”
I cocked my hip and flashed a slight smile. “Like what?”
“You’ve got the second nicest ass I’ve ever seen.”
“Who had the first?” I snapped back.
He chuckled. “Some chick in fourth grade.”
I was playing second fiddle to a fourth-grader with an award-winning ass. I didn’t know if it was meant to be a compliment, but I took it as one. His delivery of it brought out the devil in his eyes.
Seeing it secured the dinner date. I simply needed to know how to dress. My eyes widened in wonder. “Would we go on the bike?”
“Yep.”
“Because cars suck?”
“Yep.”
“I’d love to,” I said with a nod of reassurance.
“Seven sound good?”
I fought to keep from smiling. “Sounds great.”
“Alright, then.” He looked at Jennifer. “Nice to meet you.”
He gave me a quick study, grinned, and turned away. After taking a step toward the door, he paused and glanced over his shoulder. “Almost forgot. You’ve got cool hair, too. That was the other thing.”
Then, he left without another word.
It was ten o’clock on a Saturday morning, and I felt invincible. I had a great ass, cool hair, and I was going on a date with a hard-core biker.
