I took a seat on the rock wall overlooking the valley below. 

Warm air rising up over the mountain caressed my face.

The sun had begun it's path toward the ocean, it's warmth pressed against my side.  Shadows began to grow from the ridge of every hillside and canyon below. 

My phone buzzed....

A text from Lizzy.

'what happened to you last night!  Who is that stud you're kissing on top of the world!  WTF girl!  Hit me back up!!!'

I had forgotten the picture I sent of us kissing to Liz.

I began typing my message, choosing my words carefully...

'I met a man last night.   I'm with him now, on a date.   He's quite charming, can't wait for you to meet him, will call u ltr.'

I hit send.

Her reply came instantly.

'How the hell did you meet a man?  Weren't u at Jarred's?  Lol.  How'd this happen?'

Hmm.

'will tell u ltr, I raced him home on the freeway.  His motorcycle beat my car,.    :( '

Instant reply.

'His motorcycle beat ur car, what?  What! You Crazy woman!  Whatever call me.'

Marcus walked my way, he had been on the phone since we pulled into the turn out.

He had my helmet in his hand.

"Hey babe, pull up Bluetooth settings on your phone.  K, now sync with Droid helmet.  Sweet, all done.  Now if you press this button it opens your inbox.  This one for music, and that is for navigation.  All voice activated".

I felt a smile growing as I held the helmet.

"I can play my music"?

"Yep, just pause it if you want to talk.  You ready to roll out"?

"Yeah, where to"?

"Well, it's your choice.  We can relax at my place and catch a movie, or we can go to a hanger party"?

"What's a hanger party"?

He stretched his arm and pointed far down below.

"See those two white roads side by side down there on the left"?

"Yeah, I saw those.  Small airport"?

"Correct, we were next to it earlier, racing go carts.  People who own small planes rent hangers to store them in.  Tom is throwing a small party in one tonight, wanna go"?

"Oh hell yes I want to hanger party"!!

He grabbed my arm.

"Come on let's go, I want to get a bite to eat down the mountain".

The sun was in my eyes again as we traveled.  The big bikes vibrations ran throughout my skin.  Marcus rolled up behind a few cars trailing an RV. 

We weren't the only ones heading down the hill.

He and I waved together at every motorcycle rider heading in our direction.

I was in a new club!  A bikers club, what, what"!!

The air grew warmer with each few corners.  The heat thickened along our decent.  Warmth from the sun caressed my right side as we touched down on the valley floor.  A familiar intersection appeared.

That's were we almost got jacked!

A strange feeling overwhelmed me as we passed.  Not far down we turned on a small street.  A white garage door opened and we slid inside and parked.

"Home sweet home, you want a shower jen"?

"Yes please".

"Come on in, strip and I'll wash your clothes".

He dragged us in through the garage.

I'm greeted by a cute black and white kitchen, with a small living room just beyond.  In the rear a sliding glass door separated us from a pool and hot tub beyond.

NICE...

He pulled me left towards a bathroom, grabbed a towel out of the cupboard and handed it to me.

"I'm next, there's a green robe inside you can use if you want"

I stripped down in the hallway right in front of him!

"Wanna join"?

He smirked.

"Can't this time,. I'll go after you.  I'm going to wash your clothes and throw something in the oven.  Party starts in two hours.  We can play in the hot tub later, k"?

The hot tub.... That sounded fantabulous!!!!

"You are so awesome Marcus"!

I kissed him and turned, did a sexy walk into the bathroom, swinging my hips with each step.  I heard Marcus as the door shut.

"Damn, you fine girl"!!

I giggled, gosh he made me feel so good.

The hot shower hurt for a second , hard water beat against my bare skin.  Tension and anxiety escaped with the water down the drain. 

The green robe felt soft against my naked body.  I wanted to walk out nude.  In the end, the robe won.  New surroundings caused bashfulness.

A loud familiar sound rolled up and echoed inside the garage. 

The black ghost bike! 

It was here!

In the garage!

My excitement and curiosity peaked.....
