They headed off down the bar, and I turned my attention back to Reva.
“You were saying?” I chuckled.
She shook her head. “No,” she muffled. “I need to keep my mouth shut until I sober up. I’m already an idiot when you’re around. The booze intensifies it by one hundred.”
“Or maybe it helps you tell the truth?”
Her face planted in my chest, and she moaned. “Oh, my God, Hero. I’m drunk in a strip club on a Thursday night, and I just told you I want to bite your butt.”
“Welcome to the life of the Devil’s Knights?” I had told her my life was anything but normal. I looped my arm around her waist and maneuvered her onto my lap. We were sitting in the middle of a strip club, but I wanted her closer. She willingly moved onto my lap and sighed.
“It never seems to be a dull moment when you’re around.”
I brushed her hair from her face. “And I think the same thing about you, Sunshine.”
She groaned and patted her hand to my cheek. “Such a pretty face.”
“I think it might be time to get you home.” If she got any tipsier, she wasn’t going to be able to ride home. She would slide right off the bike into the ditch.
“Mmkay,” she mumbled.
I dropped a couple of twenties on the bar and gathered Reva under my arm. The Knights drank for free around here, but we still tipped well.
Reva waved at Snapper as we walked out the door. “Bye, bye, Snappy.”
He chuckled and shook his head. “Have fun,” he called.
I helped strap the helmet on her head when we got to the bike, and she held onto my shoulders when she threw her leg over the bike. She landed with a thud and giggled. “I bet you thought I was going ass over tea.”
Yeah, she was getting drunker by the minute. “I knew you had it, Sunshine.”
She wrapped her arms around me and laid her head on my shoulder. “Take me, Hero.”
I was pretty sure she missed a word in there. “Hold on, Sunshine.”
We roared out of
the parking lot, and I headed back to her house. I had been hoping to take the long way home to just enjoy having her on my bike, but four amaretto sours had different plans.
We parked in front of her condo, and she sighed heavily. “I think I almost fell asleep.”
I slipped off the bike, and before she could throw her leg over, I gathered her in my arms and carried her up the walk to her door.
“Such a good Hero,” she sighed. She dug in her purse and handed me her keys. “Wanna sleep with me?”
I shook my head and managed to open the door. Reva had no idea what she was saying. I could be a dick and take her words for what they were and have sex with her tonight. Except I wanted her to actually remember it. I headed to her bedroom and set her on the bed. She laid back and threw her arms over her head. “My bed is so comfy.”
“I’m sure it is.” I tugged off her boots and dropped them at the foot of the bed. “You wanna change?”
Reva raised a finger in the air. “I need to pee.”
“You need help, Sunshine?”
She popped up and smiled wide. “I think I can handle it.” She stood and rested a hand on my shoulder.
“Maybe I’ll just help you get there.”
She patted my shoulder. “You’ve got a good butt, and I like the way you think.”
