I sat up taller in my seat. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

“You’re not a spontaneous kind of woman.”

“I can be spontaneous,” I countered.

“You’re kidding me, right?”

“Um, no.”

“Come on, Gaby. Name the last time you did something totally off the cuff or went rogue on a set of plans.”

“One might make the argument that sleeping with you was pretty spontaneous.” I mean, I was still hella impressed that I had actually gotten the courage to ask him to fuck me.

“But you didn’t do that one alone.” He waggled his brows. “I contributed to that one.”

With a roll of my eyes, I replied, “Don’t even think you seduced me.”

“Isoseduced you.”

“Please. I wanted to fuck you despite the fact you’re an egotistical douchelord.”

Noah threw his head back with a laugh. He turned to me with amusement twinkling in his eyes. “Man, Gaby, you don’t hold back, do you?”

“Nope.”

“Especially not with egotistical douchelords like me, right?”

“Exactly.”

“And don’t ever stop. It’s one of the things I like about you.”

“Just one?”

He grinned. “How about one of the G-rated things I like about you.”

I laughed as Noah turned into a parking lot. My gaze swept from his profile over to the building in front of me.

What the…hell?

Popping my brows, I turned in my seat towards Noah. “A bowling alley?”

He grinned. “Exactly.”

“You’re taking me bowling,” I said more for myself than Noah.

“I practically grew up here.”

“You’re joking.”

Noah shook his head. “When Mason and I were kids, our Pops would bring us bowling once a week. He was like a legend here because he belonged to one of the leagues.”

“That’s cool.”

Cocking his head, Noah asked, “What’s the matter, Princess Gaby? Is a bowling alley too lowbrow for you to deign to hang around in?”

“No, it most certainly is not,” I huffed.

“Then what’s the problem?”
