Chapter 24

“Maybe you can teach me how to do what you’re doing,” I said.

“Maybe.” He picked up the Valvoline box and handed it to me.

“Cool.” I hoisted it up to one arm.

“You want to learn today, or you want to spank it?”

“Can I do both?”

Already under the hood, bent over, his shirt riding up, some ass showing, Major spun around to grin at me, but then just shook his head.

We finished the rest of the car maintenance in silence. I didn’t get to be hands on, but I took some mental notes.

“That’ll get you another three thousand miles.”

“Good to know.” I pulled my sleeveless T-shirt up over my head and used the bottom of it to clean the black smudge off Major’s cheek.

“Thank you.”

“Thank you.”

“Anytime,” he said.

I wiped the shirt across my forehead. “It got hot already.”

“Yup.”

After taking Major’s glasses off his face, I wiped the sweat from his brow, too.

“What are you doing?” he asked, his breath short, it seemed.

“What? I’ve done this before. I touch you all the time.”
