"No. Never in a million years," Audrey declared, angrily looking at Jay as he proffered a motorcycle helmet to her with one of those giant cheese-eating grins.
Jay and Audrey had planned to go on a date on Saturday, and Audrey had made the horrible mistake of allowing Jay to pick their activity. However, when she had agreed to it, she was not aware of the strings attached. Like the suspiciously motorcycle-fashioned strings.
"Oh, come on. You agreed to let me plan the date," Jay pointed out, and Audrey crossed her arms over her chest.
"That was before I found out that you were going to risk my life on that horrible devil machine," Audrey snapped, her voice full of her infamous attitude as she officially put her foot down.
"C'mon, babe. I just want to share a part of my life with you. You've shared so much with me, and I want to have the chance to share something with you," Jay expressed heartfeltly, and Audrey looked at him for a long moment, feeling her heart tug with the emotion. She finally groaned loudly, rubbing her forehead with a hand as she rolled her eyes.
"You know, you have a real silver tongue," Audrey informed him, and he just smiled widely.
"Only for you, Foxy," Jay winked, and Audrey huffed with only a slight blush, taking the helmet from him as she buckled it underneath her chin.
He then got on the motorcycle, lifting the kickstand and holding it steady so she could climb on. Audrey groaned before swinging her leg over and attempting to situate herself comfortably. The princess then wrapped her arms around his torso.
She caught only a slight hint of Jay's smile before he cranked the motorcycle. It came alive with a roar, and Audrey almost screamed at the sudden loud sound.
"Boy, would you just listen to her purr!" Jay yelled, and Audrey shook her head.
"That sounds more like a snarl!" Audrey sarcastically replied. Jay fiddled with it for a few moments before looking back at her.
"Hold on tight," he spoke, and as soon as Audrey complied, she had no time to say a word before he sped off at what felt like the speed of light.
"I am going to kill you when you stop this thing!!!" Audrey screeched at the top of her lungs, and Jay's shoulders shook with laughter as they drove down the road.
"It's just around the woods by the castle! You'll be fine," Jay assured her, the mirth definitively in his voice as he spoke, and Audrey shook her head quickly as she wrapped her arms around him as tightly as she could. She was so not falling off of this death mobile, but Jay just kept going faster.
After a little while, his speed seemed to even out, and the motor was not making that awful, consistent revving noise. But Audrey did not dare change her position in the least. This crunched up position against him is what made her feel the safest in this situation.
"Audrey, open your eyes," Jay spoke loudly, interrupting her attempts to further her fetal position formation, and Audrey clenched her teeth, intensely not wanting to comply with his words. However, she eventually did, starting out with her eyes as mere slits.
But as her eyes grew a little more accustomed to the intense wind blowing at her hair and face, she opened them more, taking in the scenery around them. Her expression softened just a bit as she looked at the woods as they made the slow loop back to the castle around the forest surrounding the Enchanted Lake. There was not a vehicle in sight outside of the motorcycle that they both were on.
In spite of herself, she felt a grin rising upon her face as her heart soared with the feeling of the gusts lapping at her body as Jay easily kept the motorcycle driving smoothly and swiftly along the pavement. Audrey closed her eyes gently, taking in the feel of it all as she actually slightly loosened her grip around Jay's strong middle.
It felt like flying and freedom in its purest form. The wind lifting not only her hair from its ordinary place against her back but was also sending her spirit soaring into the air.
"Reach your hand out," Jay told her, raising his voice a bit so that she could hear him above the motor. Audrey looked at him curiously but followed his instruction, making sure that she had one arm quite tightly wrapped around him in case she lost her balance. After all, she did not entirely trust the motorcycle and likely never would.
She extended her arm and she immediately felt the wind pushing between her fingers, eagerly enveloping her hand. Audrey giggled with the feeling, moving her hand up and down and experimentally closing her fingers together and stretching them out.
She could see Jay's smile as he revved the engine a bit and sped up slightly. Audrey squealed a bit with the sudden increase in speed and quickly withdrew her hand as she touched his side. However, as she adjusted to the change, she hesitantly returned her hand to the wind.
She almost felt as if she had wings.
"You like it any better?" Jay questioned, and Audrey huffed, despite the fact that she knew the effect was taken away by the wind. She leaned forward so that her lips were brushing his ear.
"It's tolerable," Audrey informed him, and he chuckled as the castle started to come back into view. He slowly brought the vehicle to a stop in front of the building. Jay placed his foot on the ground, holding it steady as she dismounted. As soon as he made sure that the kickstand was on the pavement, he turned to her, taking off his helmet. Audrey had already removed hers and was looking at him rather sheepishly as he smirked knowingly.
"Tolerable, huh?" Jay questioned as he moved in closer toward her. Audrey closed the distance between their bodies without hesitation, wrapping her arms around his neck as she looked up at him adoringly.
"Maybe a little more than tolerable," Audrey admitted, and Jay squished his nose against hers before capturing her lips in an absolutely toe-curling kiss.
And that felt like flying, too.
