I’d never let her die, though, of embarrassment or anything else. I’d never let anything happen to her.
“Where’s our first stop?” she asks, climbing onto the bike.
Her hands wrap around my middle, jolting me back to reality and my duty.
There’s too much hunger in me. My dick is getting hard at the slightest touch. If there wasn’t leather between us, would I be able to stop?
“We can overnight in Vegas,” I tell her. “I’m sure there’s lots of inspiration there.”
“Isn’t your package important? Shouldn’t we get it delivered as soon as possible?”
Now, I’m sure she overheard. She must’ve listened as Ryan told me not to rush back.
“We’ve got some wiggle room,” I say gruffly.
“Okay. Vegas it is.”
“From now on,” I tell her, “I pay.”
“You’re not my babysitter. I’ve got my own money.”
We’re just sitting near the pump as if we don’t want to stop talking or raise our voices over the rushing wind.
“Working at Joe’s Diner,” I say. “I know. That’s good, honest work.”
“And the poetry competition paid one thousand dollars. I don’t need you to pay my way.”
“What if I want to?” I snap.
“Why?”
“It’s called being polite.”
“Because you’resopolite, Kai.”
Am I dreaming, or did she playfully press down on my stomach when she saidso?
“Hey, I try to be. Anyway, you need your money. You’re young. I’m an old man. Nothing to spend my cash on.”
“That is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard. You’re notold. You’re in your early thirties. That’s your prime.”
“It’s old compared to a kid like you.”
“Is that how you see me, huh? A kid? Just because you outsmarted me once.”
I could tell heryes. She’s a kid in my eyes, but it would be a downright lie. She’s all woman, and even if I should, I can’t let her think I don’t see it.
“No, Kay, I don’t.”
“Kay?”
“Yeah?”
“No, Kay?”
“Why are you pronouncing my name like that?” I ask.
She laughs, hugging me tighter. I’m not sure she even means to. This bike is letting us get way closer than we otherwise would. I know the risks, but I have to keep going.
