“Uh...” I lead with, scratching the back of my neck. “I’d rather not?” I say as my tone goes up in a question trying to see if that’s the correct response.

She closes her eyes and laughs. “You’re in luck. I don’t care for so-called chick flicks myself. I prefer crime, action, thrillers, and documentaries,” she says matter-of-factly.

Before I can respond, our pilot announces that we’re about to land.

“Do you want to book another half an hour?” I ask.

“No,” she says, shaking her head politely. “Thanks for the offer, though.” She yawns. “Think I’m ready for the pizza and movie.”

“Are you planning on falling asleep on me?” I ask, lifting an eyebrow.

Shoving me playfully with an elbow, she sighs, “I wouldn’t dream of it.”

WE’VE WATCHEDInside Man, 300,andJohn Wick,and we’re mostly throughEnter the Dragonwhen I hear soft snores emitting from her. We were deep intoJohn Wickwhen she exchanged her feet on my lap for sitting beside me.

She curled up close, and we shared a blanket, but I’d be lying if I said that I wasn’t tempted to touch her in some way the entire time. I’ve kept my hands to myself, but she fell from my shoulder at some point and slumped onto my lap.

Although I tried moving her, she wouldn’t budge. The girl is in a coma. She turns her head, and now she’s facing my crotch.

Goddamnit! My wood is aching like hell and growing every moment.

“Nia,” I say softly.

She doesn’t move.

“Nia,” I repeat.

Still nothing.

This time a little louder, and I shake her. “Yesenia, wake up.”

“Huh?”

“You might want to head to your room,” I suggest.

“Why?” she asks, stretching and yawning.

My eyes dip down to the smooth expanse of gold skin displayed from her crop tee. If I dip my head down just a little, I could see her tits too. Only I’m not a fucking pervert. If I see them, correction,whenI see them, there won’t be any sneaking. She’ll be begging me to feast on them.

“You were asleep.”

“I wasn’t sleeping.”

“You were snoring,” I dispute.

Laughing, she sits up and says, “Now, I know you’re lying because I don’t snore.”

“I should’ve recorded your ass.”

She laughs some more before she scrunches up her cute little freckled nose. “Really? Was it that bad?”

I pinch my thumb and index finger together before I say, “Just a little bit.”

Nia grabs a pillow and throws it at me, but I catch it in my arms and stare back at her. She’s taken a seat at the opposite end of the couch with her back against its arm. She’s staring openly at me.

“What?”
