We let go and walked back to the house, arms around each other's shoulders. He stopped right before we opened the door. "I've got something to show off now. Weird."

"Go for it. Most of the hunters I sell cars to just get in them and go. Be nice to see someone appreciate a car for once."

He pulled open the door, "Guys! You have to come see this!"

Everyone acted surprised enough, I think Dig was the most excited of the bunch though. He loves muscle cars as much as I do. When I'd told him about it earlier he about ruined the whole thing. He wasn't more than fifteen feet away from Sam and came damn close to begging me to show it to him.

He was the first one out the door. "Aww man! She's hot!" Yup, he'd have to drive it at some point. "What's she running? Dude, love the paint job."

Sam sent a quick look my way, wondering if I wanted to rattle off the specs but I just took a step back and let him go for it. It was his, he could bask in the glory for once.

"350, V8,.." He and Dig bee lined right back to her talking car the whole time and the rest trailed behind them, totally caught up in the moment.

Coyote's arm went around my waist, "He's acting like a teenager. It's cute."

"Well, he didn't get to do it then, better late than never."

She gave me a pretty piercing look, "He understood? About you wanting Baby back?"

"He did. He was good with it."

"And you? You good with this?"

"Yeah, actually I am." Since everyone else was preoccupied with the car I took advantage of the moment and gave her a pretty serious kiss. "I'm more than good with this."

She ran her hand along my cheek, "I can see that." She looked back towards the group and cracked up, "Now they're all acting like teenagers."

"Oh hell." The Mustang seats five people, with Sam there were six people that wanted a ride.

"Boys in the back, I'll sit on Felicity's lap," Thea declared.

Roy groaned, "Great, that means I get smushed in the middle of the back seat. I hate being the smallest guy in this group sometimes." 

"I have absolutely no problems with this plan Thea," Sam stated, "Legs for days next to me while I drive, I can handle that."

"Not saving you Sam, not this time," I shouted as Oliver and Roy gave him rather unfriendly looks.

Felicity huffed, "Get over it you two. Thea could break his hand if he tried anything. Not like he would. Let's go. In the back, go already."

The guys grumbled and growled but they finally crawled into the backseat, sure enough Roy was in the middle. Felicity got in and Thea settled in on her lap and closed the door. Coyote was right, Sam looked like he was sixteen and ditching school with his friends.

"Don't do anything," I started to tell him, "Never mind, not much I wouldn't do or haven't done. Have fun."

He got in the driver's seat, rolled down the window, cranked up the tunes, gave me this shit eating trouble making grin and pulled out.

I turned and looked at Coyote, the light from the house was doing a damn good job framing her. "You know, the kids are all gone. Be at least a half an hour. What do you say?"

She grabbed me, shoved me back inside and shut the door. "Let's not waste time then."

She barely beat me up the stairs, I slammed the bedroom door, she started to unhook her dress.
