Striker and I fell into a new routine of flirting and dinner dates before he began his shift at night. It was the first time I had dated anyone since falling into Hell, and I had forgotten how nice the beginnings of new relationships were. Of course, he was still my employee, but my less logical portion of my brain kept shoving that part to the back of the line.
One evening while sitting out on the porch with Shiva, I watched as Striker's truck pulled into the yard. He had on his usual mischievous grin when he stepped out of the cab.
"Are you happy to see me," I asked, looking down at a now purring Shiva, "Or her?"
"Can't it be both?" Striker chuckled, giving me a kiss, "I wanted to come early to see if you wanted to take a ride with me down around the lake of hellfire. It's quite a sight this time of evening."
I smiled up at him, toying with the end of his bandana as I replied coquettishly, "I think I can find the time to do that."
Striker's grin widened nearly as much as the grin on the posters of the Radio Demon plastered around town, "Come on then, darlin'. Let's go for a ride."
