What?
I burst out laughing. "I ruined everything? How did I ruin everything?"
"You're bossy, with a sarcastic snark."
"What's the problem with that?" I stammer in outrage.
"Well, I'm bossy and sarcastic." He shrugs.
"And?"
"And I don't want to date myself. I like sweet, demure girls, the ones who do what I say."
"Ugh." I roll my eyes. "The ones who clean the house and have sex on Saturdays."
"Precisely."
I laugh and hold my glass up to clink with his. "You're not bad for a boring old guy with weird shoes."
He laughs. "And you're not bad for a young, hot smart-ass."
"Do you want to watch Magic Mike XXL with me?" I ask."I suppose, although I should let you know . . . I am an ex-stripper myself, so this is nothing new for me."
"Really?" I try to hide my smile.
"You're good on a pole?"
His eyes hold mine. "My pole work is the best in the country."
The air crackles between us, and I have to concentrate on stopping my inebriated mouth from saying something slutty.
He pushes the screen and taps through to Magic Mike XXL . . . and I smile broadly. This man is so unexpected.
First class is definitely the way to fly.
Six hours later
"Okay, next question. The weirdest place you've ever had sex?" he whispers.
I smirk. "You can't ask me that."
"Yes, I can. I just did."
"It's rude."
"Says who?" He looks around. "It's just a question, and nobody is
listening."Agastya and I have talked and whispered and laughed our way through the entire flight. "Hmm." I think out loud. "That's a tough one."
"Why?"
"I'm on a bit of a drought at the moment. I can hardly remember any sex."
"How long?" He frowns.
"Oh." I look to the ceiling as I think. "I haven't had sex in like . . . In my life."
His face falls in horror. "What?"
"It's lame, isn't it?" I wince.
"Very. You need to up your game. They're very bad statistics, indeed."
"I know." I giggle. Boy . . . we're so tipsy. "Why am I telling you all this stuff?" I whisper. "You're just some random guy I met on a plane."
"Who happens to be very interested in the subject."
