Gaby removed my hand from her mouth and replaced it with her warm lips. When she pulled away, she gave me a sexy little smile. “You’re right. I’m really wearing this dress for you.”

Rolling my eyes to the ceiling, I groaned. “You’re killing me.”

“A slow, horny death?”

I laughed. “Pretty much.”

She giggled. “Come on. Let’s get going before we miss the opening.”

“Should we wait for Bella?”

Shaking her head, Gaby replied, “She’s coming with some of the other sisters like Jules and Melody.”

I nodded as Gaby started for the front door. After we got to my car, I opened the door for her.

“Thanks.”

With a quick kiss, I replied, “You’re welcome.”

After I shut her door, I went around the hood of the car. Once I was inside, I cranked up and got us on the road. “Remind me again where the show is.”

“It’s a pub called Eastman’s.”

“Nice,” I replied.

“I assume that means you know where you’re going.”

“Yeah, I’ve caught a few shows there over the years.” Glancing over at her, I asked, “It’s kind of a small venue for them, isn’t it?”

“Yes and no. Even though their dads are famous, Second Sons is still a relatively unknown band. Jude’s probably the most well-known since he’s been playing with Runaway Train on and off for years.”

“I got ya.”

“And Eastman’s is an important place because it’s where Runaway Train did their first paying gig.”

“So, it’s like coming full circle.”

She smiled. “Yeah, it is.”

Thankfully, traffic wasn’t too terrible for downtown, and we made to Eastman’s with about ten minutes before the guys were supposed to go on. After I parked, I once again went to get Gaby out of the car. “I’m impressed,” she mused.

“And I’m insulted that you didn’t think I could be a gentleman.”

With a laugh, Gaby said, “I’m sorry to wound your gigantic ego.”

“It’s not that big.”

“Don’t tell me you’re being modest?”

“I’m just stating facts.” With a pointed look, I added, “I’m not such a bastard that I don’t know how to treat a woman.”

Her amused expression faded and was replaced by an apologetic one. “You’re not a bastard.”

“I’m glad you can see that.”

She placed her hands on my cheeks. “You really are decent.”

“Just decent?”
