Principessa

Once we get back to the house, Dex helps me off of the motorcycle. The night has reached its full darkness, and stars are twinkling overhead with the occasional passing cloud, but the moon is nowhere in sight.

"Ow. My legs are sore. How do you do that for a long time?" I groan with a small laugh and rub my thighs. 

"Are you okay?" His eyebrows tilt upward in that adorable expression that makes me want to grab him and squeeze his cheeks and rub his beard like he's a friendly canine rather than the sexiest man alive.

"Yes, I'm okay," I laugh. "I'm going to take a shower in back and grab some things first. Is that okay?"

"Of course it's okay. You're welcome to do whatever you'd like. Take your time." 

"Okay," I smile shyly. "I'll see you in a little bit?"
