I feel a kiss on my cheek and a light kiss on my neck. I know I'm not in bed because I'm in such an uncomfortable position.
When I feel another kiss, I open my eyes.
Brent smirks, watching me.
I sit up.
He leans back.
It takes a few minutes to realize we're still in the car.
I look around, asking, "Montecito?"
Brent knocks on the divider between the back and front seats. "Carpinteria."
Brent's door opens.
I stretch, hitting his briefcase next to me on the seat.
He places his briefcase on the floor and hands me my phone. He says, "Fair exchange, I guess."
As he exits the car, I stick a piece of gum in my mouth. Grandma Suzy-May comes to mind. She has an entire list of things she wants.
Who knew my grandmother knew about Monetico place?
Heck, who knew she had expensive taste?
How will I explain to her that I didn't go to Montecito?
Brent dips his head into the car. "Can't get your seatbelt unbuttoned?"
I pull Grandma Suzy-May's list from my pocket.
